The original updaters for x50 models do not work with "version trick" anymore (it appears it's a common problem with all CFWs). So essentially they are not usable to downgrade anymore.

But no worries, I'll put alternative updater (PRS+ installer based) that flashes with standard firmware this evening. (it's actually ready and tested on 650/950, just forgot to upload it yesterday)

PS
Oh, just checked the numbers on the screenshot. Is 1.0.00.08100 the real version? (version string comes from some XML file, technically you could upgrade to 14xxx, then flash with any 081xxx CFW, it would change version number even though technically reader was updated).
