Howdy everyone!
I'm hoping someone will be able to provide some useful information or links to steer me in the right direction. Basically I have an HTC M9, and ever since I updated to Marshmallow, I've had nothing but problems. And when I was on Lollipop, I never experienced anything. What I would like to do is downgrade my HTC M9 from Marshmallow to Lollipop 5.1.1.
After doing a bit of Googling, it seems as though "downgrade" may not even be the correct term. I saw mention that what I need to do is flash the device with a 5.1.1 ROM. Anyway, apologies if my terminology is off.
I will say that my phone is completely stock. I've never done anything custom to it as I never really felt the need to. However I can't keep using this phone so long as it's on Marshmallow so I really want to downgrade. It is my understanding that there is no official way of downgrading?
A couple guides pointed me in the direction of using CyanogenMod 12.1 which I found a download for (cm-12.1-20150718-UNOFFICIAL-himaul), and also Google Apps 5.1 (gapps-5.1.x-20150324-minimal-edition-signed). I'm afraid I don't quite know what to do with them though.
But if anyone out there could help me out, it would be greatly appreciated. No hand holding needed, just a push in the right direction would be good enough! Thank you in advance.
