I cannot find a diskimage of an Openelec Frodo 12.3 build for my Raspberry Pi. I have searched for a good couple hours or so and all I could find was the non-diskimage version. If anyone could help me get one I would be VERY grateful!!!
The 1080p stuttering issues are driving me crazy in Gotham and I want to downgrade back to Frodo which works great!
Thanks!

Thanks so much for the info!
I will
1. Use the newest openelec image to create the sd card partitions.
2. From the 1-18-2014 image file, rename KERNEL to kernel.img
3. In Windows I copy the kernel.img to the SD card and replace the kernel.img that is on there. (Or am I using the kernel.img to 'image' that partition in windows using the image writer software?)
4. Put in the Rpi and Boot it up and I should have Frodo.
Sound right?
ps - Is getting a Frodo build of Raspbmc easier?
Thanks SOOOOOO much for the help!

I made the SD card with the current image. The I copied over the KERNEL (and renamed to kernel.img) and also copied the SYSTEM file over.
It boots up. I got to XBMC and the Openelec setup, but it hangs every time. I remade the card 3 times. As soon as I click Next to accept the network name the window stays blank and I can keep clicking OK, but it does nothing.
I am using the OpenELEC-RPi.arm-Rbej-Version-Frodo-Branch(18.01.2014) version.

You should also copy over the files found under folder 3rd party.
