[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedy8:
Hi Everybody,

I know, that there are a lot of threats about this fact in the forum. But nothing will work for me, aspessially important links will not work anymore. Could anybody help me?

If I go to the bootloader (noise - and Power-On) there are the following informations written:

VISION PVT SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.85.0013

MICROP-0425

RADIO-26.10.04.03_MeMMC-boot

Apr 11 2ß11,23:36:27

HBOOT

OK, on my cell is working a Android 2.3.3, so I have to root my cell and downgrade.

I tryed to do this with the following threat: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905261

1. I Tryed to create a GOLDCARD. I read this threat, got the CID of my cell with the the code

adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid

. Now I should type this CID in a webformular at this link to reverse it. This formular is still working, but there is also a Excel-Tool on this page for downloading, which should do the same. So my CID like "035344534d49202010000073b900d494" was reversed to "00d400b9730000102020494d53445303".

This code I should input to this formular for creating a GOLDCARD, but it doesn't work anymore.

So I looked around and found this threat, where a goldcardcreator is downloadable.

In this zip-file is included a program named "SimpleGoldCard", which read a reversed CID from the cell. On a command-Line I typed in

gcard -c 00d400b9730000102020494d53445303 -r -o "GoldCard.img"

Than I putted in the sd-Card into the Card-Reader of my Desktop, formatted it, used the tool "HeX Editor", copyed (line) 00000000 to offset (line) 00000170 (including the 00000170 line) and pasted it to the SD-Card.

After that I hope to created a correct GoldCard.

2. After that I downloaded the files psneuter, PC10IMG.zip and root. But in this threat is written, that I have to extract "misc_version_01.zip". Where is this file? I searched in this forum and downloaded a file named like this. Are there Differences or is a special version needed? I copyed the PC10IMG.zip to the SD-Card and put this to the cell.

3. then I booted the cell again, connected it to the desktop and used the following commands to put the downloaded files to the cell

adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell

After that I should get the # - symbol instead of the $ - symbol which means, that I rooted the phone. But here is my first problem, I didn't get the # - symbol, so I don't have the permission to start the next programms.

4. Normally I would do next the following commands and then to reboot and flash the older Firmware.

/data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.33.405.5
exit
adb reboot bootloader

But when I reboot, the bootloader is looking for the PC10IMG.zip, is loading and checking this ... and gives me the information

CID incorrect!

Update Fail!

Press <POWER> to reboot.

Well, this is the next big problem.

Cold anybody tell me, where my mistakes are? I read 2 days in the forum, tryed a lot to get the final result, but now I don't have the time anymore to continue in this way.

THanks a lot. with best regards, Speedy8
