Nope, you need the one from step 5.
As you were coming from 2.36.405.8, this is the guide you should have been using. In all fairness though, the steps are pretty much the same (save for the Chinese ROM bit).

Thanks El Presidente, but nothing's changed. I downloaded the the file as instructed , but nothing!!
Help
What stage is it stuck at this time? Are you getting to the Dance Forever my only one bit again or is it sticking at the $ after typing ADB Shell?
Well, according to your confirmation I seem to have temp root, but When restart into bootlaoder to allow the loading on Zip file, nothing happens, I get the same old bootloader screen.
That was already done.
So, you formatted the SD Card after it became a gold card and tried the procedure again. Are you 100% sure it's not a gold card?
I've looked at the XDA thread and the only advice it gives is this -
It also might be worth checking the MD5 again. The correct value is: C3D244A9F056E48EE3851A14FF52204C
That's the only thing I can suggest I'm afraid.

All the zip files I downloaded do not give this value they all give
D5067EAAD6D447797A67828B567901AF
I just downloaded a new one it turned out to be
06247433b29342c7b638f0848eb82b14
Can you direct to correct file to download please?
[GUIDE] How to downgrade 1.7x/1.8x/2.x to 1.32.405.6 - xda-developers
In section 1, there's an option to download the PD98IMG file.
This is the same file i downloaded before,
Are you sure this give the correct value?
It seems that there is only you el presidente who can help in this forum.
Thanks man.
The download may have been corrupted? I've just redownloaded myself and confirmed the value as C3D244A9F056E48EE3851A14FF52204C so it should work.
Thanks for the link, downloaded and checked.
into Bootloader, but still does not recognize the zip file.
I'm officially getting tired of this!
Have you tried with another SD Card?
Well, here is a change!
Once SD card was replaced, Bootloader is loading the file and updating as I type!
Great!
I'll keep you posted if something's gone wrong.
For those who could face similar problems, check the following
1- Replace SD Card, Make a goldcard (important even if unbranded)
2- if an update attempt fails always do factory resetting and start again
I am probably more relieved about that than you are.

Nice one man, Thanks
Downgrade is completed, I'm kindaa having issues with get S-Off to work via the jkoljo tool, it says connection problem or something.
I tried the CMD method by entering adb shell, the su , but it says permission denied.
I guess you're not too relieved huh!, not just yet.
Never, sorry...done and dusted!
All I've done is visionary+ temp root it, then used the S- off tool
Thanks ElPresidente very much for the help
Did you temp root, then perma root with Visionary?
Also, you'll need to make sure that USB Debugging is enabled and the connection type is set to charge only. These options will be set to default as a result of the downgrade.

Just saw your edit!
Excellent, glad it's sorted. Have you decided which ROM you're going for yet?
Just shout if you need more assistance.
