Is this to downgrade if so can you tell me how if not can you point me in right direction as head is booming I'm on 4.31 and want to go to 3.55 thanks

no this is not to downgrade, you can use flasher (E3, Progskeet, etc) to do so. basically this tool is used to sign the pkg on firmware update. since rvk_verifier.self not touched before by old CFW.

so now all CFW can run smoothly, without toggle activated and hdd replace issue is fix

btw you need spkg-key and iv from retail one to get this application working.
