Hey everyone, firstly, I'd like to say that this phone, in my opinion, is epic. I love mostly everything about it! I love how it handles, and it works for me. I love this damn thing. However, I do experience these random freeze ups of apps. I have no clue why it does this. It will freeze up, the phone will ask if I want to wait or press ok and then the app crashes. I've already factory reset my phone about 4 times now, but these problems still linger, however I remember with my older phone that had Gingerbread, I didn't have the freeze up issue, so I was wondering if maybe I could downgrade this firmware.

If this is a stupid question, I apologize, I don't really study up on androids, but I like to dabble when it comes to technology >.<

-thanks for reading.

Currently, no. Kyocera has not released information that will allow us to change the preinstalled version of Ice Cream Sandwich. However, there are a few of us that are trying to break into the phone, so who knows. Maybe it won't be long before this is possible.
