[Q] CyanogenMod Alternatives?

Alright, so I am relatively new to the HTC Legend (Not so much to the Android world, 8 month owner of a I9000). The phone was bought used for my girlfriend (Directed her away from the Iphone, and towards HTC as its my first choice these days). Phone is on Rogers here in Canada. The phone was sold to her with cyanogenmod 7.0.2 installed. She noticed that she wasnt getting any missed calls or new voicemails, which is a issue for her as she is on call 24/7. I upgraded to 7.0.3 on the weekend to see if the issues were resolved and no change. Googled the issue and found out it was a bug in the cm7 release....

I googled and searched to see if there had been anyone who had asked this question. Thought maybe someone on here may have ran across the same issue as me and perhaps can point me in the right direction, I have posted a posting up on the cyanogenmod forums as well. Site has worked wonders for my samsung I9000 so figured I would post up about this here as well....

Can I downgrade to cm6 easily? Does cm6 have the same issues as cm7 has with the missed calls and voicemail notifications?

If the answer is yes....

Can anyone direct me to where i can get a stock firmware for the phone so i can revert back to stock till the issues are resolved?

Thank you very much!

Hey, If your GF did not personalize the phone much, I'd recommend going to B0.8.4 ROM, all works perfect as far as I know (but it is Froyo as opposed from CM7 which is GB)

It feels almost like stock but it is faster with many advantages

My GF has it as well as I have switched to DS

As for the backup/restore, I'm sure you know can move a lot of things with apps like TitaniumBackup, MyBackup etc... I'd go that way

B0.8.4 suited me a lot as I wanted sense...

Cheers!

Cool, I will give that a try and see how it turns out. i do have titanium backup so I will run that on ther phone first this time before the upgrade. Link looks like a win win!

Thanks!
