First everyone say congrats to my "partner in crime/helping people" on here

YOU KNOW THE ROUTINE-I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS AS A RESULTS OF ATTEMPTING THIS GUIDE.

IT WOULD NOT BE POSTED HERE IF IT DID NOT WORK

So after rooting your phone you failed to make a backup right after rooting and after flashing a few ROMS/Kernels/Themes you just want a fresh start of ZVD. Until we have a stable ZVD ROM here are your options.
The hard way:
1. http://androidforums.com/esteem-all-things-root/479734-guide-downgrade-ms910zvc-ms910zvb.html
then
2. http://androidforums.com/esteem-all-things-root/512317-guide-x2-update-zvd-root-zvd.html

The easy way:
This is a way to get back to stock/bloated ZVD using the advanced restore option in CWM.
This backup was created by factory resetting my phone, setting up a dummy Gmail account to install quick boot from the market(Google play store).

As said by some guy who dabbles in Theme & ROMS

i have noticed this and then posted one myself lol then i made this thread to hopefully answer some questions... but it just made more questions arise lol but i have spoke to shiney about this already and yeah he is merging them into 1 large zvd thread when he can as they each die down a little, because some of them are actually usefull... but most arent.. just the random new guy creating an account just so he can ask a question someone else already asked.. but like fuzzy said it is a forum lol

but hey we were all that new guy/girl asking some silly question because we didn't know the rules at some point before right? lol im sure it will get cleaned up as time goes buy.. we jus gotta remember 'forum's is not a job, we dont get paid lol so were not always available __________________

I was having the same issue! I downloaded this MULTIPLE times via phone pc etc... WAY before this was released. Everytime I tried to find it, it was nowhere to be found. Only way I could find it was to move the files to cwm backup folder. After I do that I try to restore and I get md5 mismatch error. I'm not sure this works?

Like we said earlier..every phone is different..more often than not its just a missed step..the guide is not perfect..even after I posted it..recalled some things I had left outbthat I know that other may not.
I will add to it.:thumbup:

 

[racinmason001]

I just figured out how to setup my PC for the downgrade thing. I'm gonna do that then upgrade to zvd again.

 

[gbiggie]

I have done it now three times myself as well as having others named in op test it..does work..off to work for me.right now bit will helpbyou guys out tomorrow ..for sure

 

[racinmason001]

The first time I THOUGHT I got it to work I was just installing an old backup. Are your other testers confirming the deletion of the dummy gmail account?

 

[racinmason001]

I'd like everyone to post who tries this confirm working or MD5 mismatch error.
