Problems after Windows 10 to WP8.1 rollback

I rolled back to Windows Phone 8.1 after trying Windows 10 preview on my Lumia 830 and I'm facing this two weird problems:
1. There are two "Phone" icons in my app list, both working and I can't get rid of any of the two.
2. I can't open Keyboard advanced settings, i.e. to add comma to my keyboard. Everytime I press "advanced" button I'm taken back to the previous screen.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!

I used Windows Recovery Tool, installing all the updates before restoring the phone yesterday.

I have the same problem. Exact same issues.

Would love to know a solution here.

Lumia Software Recovery Tool 5.0.6 for me on a Lumia 635 on AT&T, US Region.

That's weird because I used the same tool to rollback to wp8.1. But I am not having any kind of issue. Try downloading the package again and see if it works properly this time.

Try use the Lumia recovery tool, i used for my Lumia 830 previously and works fine...i don't know what is the differences between windows phone recovery tool and Lumia recovery tool, but for my opinion better using the Lumia recovery instead windows phone recovery, since the windows phone recovery also can apply for non-Lumia phone, but Lumia recovery is just for Lumia phone...other than that windows phone recovery tool also consider as a very new software, so maybe it has some bug we don't know

Did you try a hard reset after rolling back?
