iOS9

I previously updated to iOS 9 on my iPhone 6. It developed a bug where when I received a message it appeared with only the number and not the contact name. Once the message was opened it shown the contact name. I did all the suggestions from Apple but no fix worked. So I downgraded back to iOS 8. Since then there has been two updates out since to 9.02. Would it be worthwhile updating to this or do we think il still get the message issue if i update?

Any help would be appreciated.

iPhone 6, iOS 9

I Managed to google a way how to do it. But i am now sceptical whether to update to iOS 9 as Apple only allow a signed version of iOS 8 to go back to and only for a certain amount of time apparently. And i have read that they are no longer signing the version to go back to iOS 8. That's why I ain't updated yet as I don't think we can go back to iOS 8 now. Not 100% about that but that's what I've read.

There is no way to go back to iOS 8 that is safe, in terms of protecting your data. You must install a hacked version that you find on the Internet. It could easily be infected with spyware that can steal your data and passwords, and track you.
