I make some small additions because the original article was not very clear at the USB installation.

DONT USE THIS WITH HBOOT 0.83 or 0.93 SLCD DEVICES!!!
OTHERWISE YOUR PHONE WILL END UP WITH A DEAD SCREEN!

Overview

  1. Requirements
  2. Step 1 – downgrade (Video: Step 1 on youtube)
  3. Step 2 – root with unrevoke recovery
  4. Step 3 – repair /misc partition (Video: Step 3-4 on youtube)
  5. Step 4 – flash custom or stock rom

Please follow this step-by-step tutorial to go back to HBOOT 0.80

!!!! ROOTING / FLASHING / DOWNGRADING IS ALWAYS ON YOUR OWN RISK !!!!
Attention: This method will completely wipe your phone!!!

Requirements

  1. Make a NEW Goldcard (here) depending on your device (branded or not)
    It can be that your CID has changed so you have to make a new goldcard. You can try your existing card as well!
  2. MIRROR Download PB99IMG.zip (DE)
    MIRROR by Shipped-Roms
    MIRROR 2
    MIRROR by AdamG (UK)
  3. Rename the downloaded file to PB99IMG.zip [NOT zip.zip !!!] and copy it to the root directory of your SD Card. (Just to your SD Card, NOT into any subdirectory!)
  4. Download this misc_update.zip to repair your misc partition in Step 3 and copy it to your SD card as well.
  5. Download your desired ROM (custom or stock whatever you like) and copy it to your SD Card. Don’t name it update.zip!
Step 1 – downgrade (Video: Step 1 on youtube)
  1. Shutdown your device

  3. Wait until PB99IMG.ZIP was found and verfied. If that fails, check if you named the file the right way and it’s located in the root of your SD.
  4. Press volume UP to start the update.
  5. Wait until all steps are done. DON’T POWER OFF YOUR DEVICE!
  6. After the downgrade progress has finished press volume UP to reboot.
  7. When the phone has started mount SD card and REMOVE PB99IMG.zip
  8. Unmount SD card and continue with the next step…

  2. Download unrevoke recovery here
  3. Enable USB debugging on your phone (under settings > applications > developments >USB Debugging).

  5. Install the drivers when the phone is in debug mode
  6. Install the drivers when the phone is in boot mode (shutdown > press volume down > power button)
  7. Start unrevoke and follow the instructions
  8. If unrevoke has finished you should be in custom recovery.
Step 3 – repair /misc partition (Video: Step 3-4 on youtube)

  2. Select ‘install zip from sdcard‘ (Use Vol + and – to navigate and trackball)
  3. Select ‘choose zip from sdcard‘
  4. Select ‘misc_update.zip‘ from SD und confirm it with yes. Maybe you have to scroll down till you can see the file!
  5. After that your /misc partition should be repaired
