How to downgrade to 4.3?

Hi,

I updated to 4.4.2, but i don't like holo ui, new system ui, and i lost write acces to sdcard. (last is Google's error, i know)

How can i downgrade to 4.3? It is possible to downgrade via PC Companion?

You can use a generic .ftf firmware file - The only difference will be the pre-installed T-mobile features/apps will not be installed

Just make sure that if you have a D2303 version phone to use a D2303 firmware file

So what exactly is the missing driver - The driver your image refers to is not from Sony - This is something made via members on XDA
