having problems downgrading my hero - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

everytime i run the RUU program it gets almost through then an error pops up and says
error 130 model ID incorrect.
ive followed this guide to downgrading and doesnt seem to be working
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/18/how-to-downgrade-your-htc-hero-so-it-can-be-rooted/
any help would be greatly appreciated

When does that come up? Is it the goldcard method your using? Did you check if your goldcard had worked?.... Use BTDAGs guide linked in my signature.

ok so it got past the goldcard and worked from there.. went thru the root procedure and got to the custom ROM. started to load villainROM and installation aborted.
this is what i see
install from sdcard...
finding update package...
opening update package...
E:can't open /sdcard/villainROM10.2-Full-signed.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.

Probably just a bad download. Do it again

did it again... same thing. when i went to wipe the sd:ext partition i get
error : Run 'wipe ext' via adb.
WTF!? should i find another ROM? or is there an underlying problem?

[Q] Installation Aborted - Xrecovery

I had already looked into the other thread, but i have different issues.
I installed xrecovery0.3_GBready ( the fixed version by Z )
and then flashed WB 4.0
Then i can't install any patches.I always get :
"Can't open pacakege filepath/filename.zip(bad)
Installation Aborted"
I'm also facing a similar problem with ThJap's ROM!!
Since my problem is similar, I thought of posting it here.
I'm on locked bootloader and my xRec version is 0.3.
I have installed many ROMs and they work fine!
Its just that when I try to install ThJap's ROM in xRec I get the following error:
--Installing: SDCARD:MaXtoR/ThGo2_v7.0.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update pakcage...
E:Can't open /sdcard/MaXtoR/ThGo2_v7.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
Even re-downloading the file didn't help!
Any solutions?

zip is corrupted/screwed... wait for the maker to fix this or either try the other method of installation...
Awww
The ZIP itself seems ok though.
Then I will wait for a fixed version.

[Q] Samsung Infuse Clockwork Recovery Aborted

Okey been trying to figure this out for days. I rooted my infuse with odin. So i have superuser. Now i am trying to install Clockwork recovery and cant get it to work. i am running on gingerbread.uclb3,firmware 2.3.6. I am using the rom manager and root explorer to install the recovery file into system/bin folder and its not working. I always get this....
installing package....
finding update package....
opening update package....
verifying update package
E:failed to verify whole -file signature
E:signature verification failed
installation aborted
I did everything step by step. One thing that was odd to me is when i placed the recovery file into the system/bin folder, there wasn't a original recovery file there. Does this mean it boots up from a different folder?
i am pretty retarted at this so plz if anybody can explain this because i see many people have problems with the same thing.
