Going from a higher firmware version to a lower one does not brick phone!

Possible that nobody really tried to do it, I cant see why anybody would want to go back unless they want to return their phone for a warranty repair, so I guess its a good thing to know ..

cheers 😊

maybe its ok to go back when changing product code. cant think why, just a thought.

I've done it a few times, though mostly because I had no clue it wasn't *supposed* to be possible until reading various forums in a little more depth.

I've downgraded mostly by only a few point releases though, nothing as major as going from v4 to v3.

I can't imagine why it wouldn't be possible using the dead phone business in Phoenix anyway.
