Default Main Version is older! Update Fail!

Hi everyone, I`m getting the "Main Version is older! Update Fail!" message and have run into a brick wall. Can anybody help? Hopefully the screen grab of the cmd has attached correctly so one of you clever people may be able to see it and know what is wrong.... I have not got a clue!

That was it dude! Below Exploiting Device, it just went back to the start C:Users...ect. There was nothing else of interest.

Anybody know what went wrong?

If i remember correctly fre3vo exploits and then exits the shell.
If you use "adb shell" again, you should have root on your phone.

I followed the guide in the cyanogenmod wiki and it worked, so maybe have a look at that:

Your error sound like you didn't use misc_version.

yeah i think that's right, i think you will exit shell after the exploit. if you type adb shell and you get a # you're root. if you get a $, try typing su then hit enter and if you get a # you're root

i followed the guide that Dlog linked to and it worked well so i would definitely do that. but i guess that's what you're doing anyway?

DONATE TO ME
it is because the update package in your sdcard is older than your device running right now,

that's why after fre3vo and got root in adb shell (the # sign), you run this command
./misc_version -s 1.31.405.6 , to make your DHD think the update package is newer, and do the update from the IMG file in your sdcard

after update complete (downgrade), you can now use visionary+ to root .
BTW, what's your build number ?
