Greetings all,

After 30 years in telecom and IT, I've graduated from Blackberrys (OK, I know) to my first Droid - RAZR HD.  Normally, I haven't been too concerned about updating when new software was available, contrary to what I've learned with Windows. But this time, I took KitKat before I started reading the forums.  God, I want JellyBean back.  I won't go into the gory details of everything I hate (and a lot of stuff that no longer works) about KitKat. 

 

So, I went to the  Verizon store and the manager suggested I root my phone.  Hmmmm.

 

Came here to learn and see if anyone has mastered the art of ditching KitKat and restoring JellyBean.  Saving that, I'll ditch the phone after 5 months and get something else - Yeah it's that bad.

 

I really liked the phone I had.  I hate the one I have after the upgrade.  Verizon offered to replace with a Samsung or HTC of which I know nothing.  I just want a larger screen (like what I have) and the ability to add and SD card ( I refuse to buy any Apple product) to listen to music.

 

I've been a loyal Motorola user since the early 90s but am not impressed with how Google ran it into the ground and then sold it to Lenovo.

 

regards,

AJG

Thanks, couldn't downgrade, but was able to replace.  VZ and Moto tech reps are tired of hearing complaints.

I've begun seeing a lot of people saying they hate KitKat. I know you said you won't go into details but I'm curious on what it was that made you dislike the upgrade so much. I swear I'm not criticizing at all and won't reply with " you could have fixed with this app or that app". It almost seems as if the RAZR HD has the most complaints about the update and I'm not sure if everyone is seeing the same problems.
