NO, do not attempt to downgrade your firmware.
Attempt all you want, it won't allow you to go back. After that OAuth2 update, I didn't like the fact that it now REQUIRED use of the Web site (OBiTALK portal), but the device wouldn't allow a downgrade back to the version using simple username and password entry. Lamentably enough, I read today about some users on BBR/DSLR that refused that update, and never had any of the trouble warned/promised/threatened by Google way back when, and were still working.

OAUTH 2.0 authentication is required by Google to use the service. The prior method was a security exposure and was removed from the firmware as required by Google.

While this is true, it is also true they are using an authentication protocol that has been deprecated by Google. At some point (who knows when) that old authentication method will cease to function.

OMG - that firmware is golden. I spent hours only downloading old firmwares (because that's where the support page points!!!) THANK YOU!

Found the solution on another thread for the Obi100.
Download this firmware for the Obi110 http://fw.obihai.com/OBi110-1-3-0-2886.fw
(Yes, I know its for the Obi110 but it will work in the Obi100).
Then Reboot.
If you don't know how to install the firmware:
Dial * * * 1
It will give you the IP Address: 192.168.XXX.XXX (example 192.168.1.27 )
In your browser, enter the IP Address as the URL.
User Name: admin
password: admin
On the left side, navigate to SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
Click DEVICE UPDATE
At the top where it says "Firmware Update
Select file to update firmware [BROWSE] ...."
Click BROWSE and add the file. Then click UPLOAD
Once it reboots its done.
In the obitalk portal, you can delete the old device and add a new device. Its should work with Google Voice using OAuth.
