You can switch your firmware to alternate version, than you can flash :)
If your alternate version copy is restricted one, than you can change version number to lower one of current firmware by hand via playing /mtd_rwarea/Version files....

I mean If you downgraded from 3000.2 like version... Your alternative firmware is restricted ;)
But I understand, your TV don't...

First of all, check your u-boot code and be sure you can enter to the bootloader from ExLink.
That saves your Tv if any there are any failure.

After, enter to TV from telnet (or exlink) and drop to console.
goto /mtd_rwarea,
open Version.0 or Version.1 file (which is your actual firmware...)
change its version number by hand,
you can use "vi" command to do that.
or just copy "Version.0" (or Verison.1) to your USB and edit on your computer by hand and put edited Version file to mtd_rwarea.

Keep it in mind, it's worth to have Backup of your all partitions! from tbml0 to 20... and also /dev/bml0/*
Copy them to usb stick with dd command and keep the images on your computer after...

On Force Revert Back wiki page, we playing version file also. I think you can understand it's structure easily and understand what you needed to have also... :)
Salutations, Erdem :)

Did You try delete Version.1 file before add new ID?:

Code: Select all

rm /mtd_rwarea/Version.1
echo SWU_T-CHE7AUSC_001013_I02_ES000DS000_090914 > Version.1
Did You try to add ID of earler version before 1013.0 (e.g. T-CHE7AUSC-1011.3 )?
