Hi guys, I need a big help.

I followed the procedure to downgrade the Htc Legend from Froyo, unfortunately while i was in windows's terminal and I typed crackin.bat the terminal replied me c---rw---- 1 1001 2002 90, 0 jul 19 16:19 /dev/mtd/mtd0

I tried to restart my device or to clearing the phone to factory settings but my device now doesnt' get a signal.

Thank You, Paul!

I successfully downgraded my legend to 1.31

To the others, if you have hard 2.2 and soft 3.5, and you can not install visionary r13, try to install r14

from here

If (like me) you got flashed the Legend Froyo OTA and now you can't downgrade, you can do the following..

- Follow this guide to the end (the last stage will appear to have failed)

- Temproot with VISIONary r13 (install the downloaded file as per a normal APK)

- Once you are temprooted, connect via 'adb' and do 'su' (to get root) then '/data/local/flash_image misc /data/local/misc1-2.img'

You should then be able to downgrade in the normal way.

You try this at your own risk... I successfully did this on my device, but of course YMMV. :rolleyes:

P

Paul, used the visionary+ method above, many many thanks for the guide
