Root big mistake

[cornelljdavis]

i tried to flash stock root from apache thunder but did full stock on accident. i redid all the steps for the unlocking and rooting my phone but i cant install the cwm because my hboot is now the 1.300 whatever version. so when trying to flash the stock root it to the 1.0 hboot one i cant becauseo old and you have to flash that in cwm before you can the down the grade hboot. i will keep trying but if anyone can help i will appreciate it

I don't know how to turn off the version checks but all I do to get around version too old error is open the rom zip and open "android-info.txt" and edit the "mainver:" line to a number higher then my current one. Not sure if this is the right thing to do but it works.

you pretty much have to replace the first "1" with a "2"

when I try to put that 2.12.651.5 like apache thunder said and save it, it doesn't save

It should save, try to pull that file out of the zip archive, edit, save it then put it back in.

so take them out make the change then put them back?

Yes you should be able open the zip archive, extract the android-info.txt, make the change then put it back in overwriting the old one

I think you can use notepad +
