help please D: btw bsmalley you helped me launch it so while doing nand i was deleting the preloader things and i got this message saying press + then - to delete the system menu app for v4 so right before i did that i noticed the warning and it said if i didnt uninstall it by wad manager i wont be able to launch my system menu thing is i dont remember installing it just hbc so should i go ahead with it or deny it?

thats why i kept saying follow this guide as instructed but just use the different method of running those apps. if you already did the downgrade then upgrade preloader should be removed then u can proceed with nandclean.

was saying that you helped me get it running w/o hb thanks.but what the question was in when i have to downgrade with the cios program it says something about a network it just sat at that point for the 5 minutes was trying to figure out why it did that dont think it downgraded or anything just froze

you have to have it connected to the internet to access the servers to download whatever firmware you chose, which sholud be 3.2 whatever country ur from. while its downloading you should see a progression bar just as u would for any other downloading utility.

thats the thing it just kinda freezes after it does a quick check and says initializing network then just sits there i left it alone and nothing happened.had it hooked up via lan adapter/reset my modem to make sure the connection was good and now i just cant figure out why it wont go after it starts the initializing network part

im not 100% sure but you might actually need it connected via wifi. i believe i have read somewhere about LAN adapter connection not sufficient for certain tasks.
