Ok guys need a little help. I installed CM13 on my HD+ using the instructions in the HD+ Android Development section. I want to take the HD+ back to stock. I was following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613 and read that you need to flash the NookHDplus-factory-2.2.1-plain-stock.zip using CWM version 6036 or earlier.
So my question is I guess do I need to make a CWM SD card with CWM 6036, boot that, then swap out that card for one with the NookHDplus-factory-2.2.1-plain-stock.zip, and flash that, or do I need to downgrade the emmc version somehow to CWM 6036, then boot the NookHDplus-factory-2.2.1-plain-stock.zip, and flash that if that makes any sense?

Thanks!

You do not need to downgrade the internal emmc recovery to CWM 6036. Just use a new CWM 6036 SD to flash the stock zip. The internal recovery will be downgraded to stock recovery as part of flashing the stock zip.
