Yes Please clarify since it seems like once we get to a certain point we can't flash back using those OFFICIAL Updates, how did you do it?

You mean you used the DC23 official flash, then re-flashed to DG21? Or you were able to use octans to flash the PDA version back to a DC23?

AFAIK you will ALWAYS be able to use the official update. The only problem is they don't let you downgrade, only upgrade. So if you flashed to the newest official update, you need to change your PDA portion of your phone back to a former release.

I used i920 Flasher to go back to my version 2 Base rom, which was before even DC23, that way my phone would be recognized as needing an update.

Well, glad I didn't jump right on this one. I'm usually an early adopter, since the risk of bricking is so much slighter than with the old, original Omnia.

That was a close call - we almost lost the most prolific chef, and seemingly the only active one currently...I'm trying to figure out the custom ROM scene, but I'm just too damned stupid, it seems. No luck yet.

My laptop has been acting up for the last few weeks. I tried the DG21 1.0.2.3 update a while back and I was not able to load 5 of my own custom roms after the update. Well I guess I had a bad flash, as I've redownloaded the latest DG21 1.0.2.3 and flashed to ZeroLite with no problems.

I have since formated my laptop and reloaded Win 7 64bit, so maybe this fresh clean install was the difference.

Either way you can flash away with DG21 1.0.2.3
