Help LAst Android update changed lots of my apps!!

[unicyclist5]

The last android update I accepted on my HTC Desire S changed so many of my apps I wasn't expecting. Now I have to pull a silly ring to open, what was wrong with the pull down method?
The calendar app I had has changed to multi-calendar and I don't like the way it displays.
The email app and the Txt app have also changed.

How can I get back to the way it was?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!!!

Greetings Andy,

As you say, "Newer is not necessarily better"

It sounds like you got the new sense screens and apps with your update. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way to "downgrade" the versions of the apps to their previous selves, (without rooting the phone).

You can try some apps to maybe recreate what you've come to be used to using. There are a number of lock screen apps that can change you lock screen, widget locker(paid app) comes to mind. There are some free alternatives as well.

The same thing applies to email, txt and calender issues.

Here is the link to the sub forum of your device. There maybe someone there can direct you to a better solution.

Hope this helps
