Has anyone successfully downgraded from KK to JB? I need to downgrade my one and only MC40 back to JB but have been unable to. I get the following:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
Stop update, check_hw() return false
Installation aborted.

Here's some additional information regarding attempts to downgrade my device back to JB. I tried loading the following JB packages:
M40N0JXXVRUxx20520.zip
M40N0JXX0RUxx20520.zip
M40N0JXXVRUxx30208.zip
M40N0JXX0RUxx30208.zip (this is what was loaded prior to upgrading to KK)

I get the following error when attempting to load either version of the 0208 image:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
Stop update, check_hw() return false
Installation aborted.

I get the following error when attempting to load M40N0JXXVRUxx20520.zip:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
Using built-in update-binary to update
assert failed: getprop("ro.motosln.feature.voice"
) == "true"
Installation aborted.

I tried loading the packages via adb sideload and Recovery Mode. No problems upgrading to KK. My device hardware config shows a Touch of "Novatech." So I followed David's procedure for that type. I also loaded the optional "recovery-update-voice-kk.zip."

One question I have is regarding the MFD on my device. It shows "MFD: 13NOV12 MVKS." Can this be the root cause?
