How to go back to IOS 6.0

I updated to IOS 7. Awful software. All letters are thinner the light gray is awful it's too bright also. When answering a call where is the decline button? Calendar is also bad. Everything is thinned down. Almost need a magnifying glass to see things. I can't believe the software people made this for iPhone. People are already going to other phones. Guess what.  So am I. Wow what a shame Steve Jobs would be ashamed I think .

Hi, no idea if it's still posible, but...
FED UP WITH iOS 7? HERE'S HOW TO DOWNGRADE TO THE OLD VERSION
Disgruntled iIOS 7 users can still downgrade to iOS 6.
9TO5mac have created a step-by-step guide for customers unhappy with their new-look phones.
Firstly it states users should check whether they can still downgrade as Apple usually stops approving old versions as soon as an update is released.
Currently,k iOS 6.1.3 is still being approved. To check visit here.
Users should click on their device. If there is a green mark next to it, it is still available. If not, Apple has stopped approving the version.
If still available, the user should then click on the link in the Download column on the same page to get the IPSW for the desired iOS.
Next, the user should open iTunes, plug in the device and hold down the Option key and click the restore button.
Apple servers with then be asked to approve the request and if approved the phone will be downgraded to iOS 6.
Users must then re-sync their media and apps.
However, 9TO5mac warns downgrading could mean a few headaches including not being able to use newer Apps and needing to back up the device again.

  • How to make IOS 7 readable? Or how to go back to IOS 6?

    I know there are tons of improvements in IOS 7, but the user interface isn't one of them. I can't read light blue against a lime green background, and I can't read white, spindly letters against a white background either. I've been tested: my color vision is normal.
    I don't care for the artless flat icons, but I could put up with them if I could see them.
    Is there a way to get some contrast into the UI? It looks like invisible ink right before it dries.
    If there is no way to get contrast into IOS 7's UI, then I want to know how to go back to IOS 6. I really don't want to go back to IOS 6, but if I can't see the UI, I can't benefit from the features.

    That is not accurate. If you have iOS 7, and restore from an iOS 6 backup, it will restore your content but the OS will not be downgraded.

  • How to downgrade back to ios 7.0.2

    How to I go back to IOS 7.1. until IOS 8 is fix

    There is no supported method of downgrading iOS versions.
    You can try the standard troubleshooting steps:
    1. Reset,
    2. Resotre,
    3. If neither fix the issues, you can take it into an Apple store for Diagnosis.
    To Reset, simply press and hold the home and power/sleep buttons until the Apple Logo shows up.   This will reboot the iPhone.  Usually this helps with issues relating to memory or uncleared installation files.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
    This will refresh the iOS installation and usually helps fix any bugs and glitches that may have creeped up during the original installation.

  • HT4623 how to downgrade back to ios 6

    I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

  • Any info from Apple on how to downgrade back to IOS 3

    Not happy with IOS 4, phone lags. Any info from Apple on how to downgrade back to IOS3.13?

    I've just downgraded my old 3G to 3.1.3 before giving it to my girlfriend. While I was quite happy with iOS4, I did note that a few minor things were a little slower (mainly SMS), and she hammers this feature so I thought it best to hand over the device on 3.1.3.
    Downgrading was incredibly easy, it's actually a fairly trivial task if you follow one of the many excellent guides. The entire thing only took about 1 hour, from first reading the article to the phone being at the "connect to itunes" screen on 3.1.3.
    Just google "lifehacker iphone 3g downgrade", and you should get the same article I used.
    The annoying thing is, she's now wanting to upgrade it to iOS4 herself because she wants folder. I shouldn't of even bothered downgrading it. lol.

  • HT4623 How to go back to ios 6 from ios7

    I recently uploaded ios 7.0.2 to my iphone 4, and hate it.  It is extremely slow, and applications constantly crash and freeze up.  I want to go back to ios 6.  Anyone know how to do that?  ios 7 may work fine on faster iphone 5's, but don't upgrade older iphone 4's.

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported.  iOS 7 is running just fine on my spouse's iPhone 4. 
    What troubleshooting steps have you taken thus far to remedy your problems?  Have you taken the troubleshooting steps recommended in the User Guide?

  • How to go back to ios 5 phone dialer in iphone

    Is there a way to have the phone keyboard go back to the color it was before upgrading to ios 6?

    Not a particularly useful response to be honest. "Change is good"
    What I dislike is not the keyboard change itself, but how it keeps changing back to the old colour scheme for some activities.
    Try dialing a number (or going to message bank), then bring up the keyboard, such as when doing phone banking.  No new white keyboard now.  The chopping and changing between colour schemes is more annoying than staying with one, or the other.
    So "change is (not) good", when it happens during a phone call.

  • How to downgrade back from IOS 4.2.1

    I have had enough of woes with my I-Phone 3G, after upgrading to IOS 4.2.1.
    Any way of backtracking to a more stable state? I was fine till IOS 4.1. though the performance was slowing down. Now totally stuck since last 3 days.

    Ok, let me tell you what I tried to do. Restore through Itunes didnt work, got a lot of errors mainly pointing to hardware issues. I once managed to get it jailbroken through a friend, and then asked him to reset it completely so I could restore it in Itunes again (I had no compulsive intention to remain jailbroken then, I wish I had not reset it and continued using it in jailbroken mode).So I have just one choice left now...jailbreak. I am just looking for a reply from Apple before I go ahead with jailbreak.Wonder how long my patience will last, 3 days and 4th starting.

  • TS1702 I updated iOS 6 and now my iPad is so slow I could smash it with a hammer. IT *****!!! And I can't watch streaming or videos. Can someone tell me how to revert back to iOS 5.

    Someone please help me. I paid for streaming movies and now I can't even watch them. I can't tell you how much I hate iOS 6. It has basically ruined the fun of having an iPad. I am so not happy.

    Downgrading is not supported.
    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
