Is possible downgrade a PB700 device?

Hi. I've been trying to downgrade my Era device without success. I've followed the instructions in the manual, but unzipping the firmware pack file on the root folder and switching off and on while holding down the backward and forward buttons doesn't work for me. Perhaps a check about the firmware is older than actual?

Is there another method for downgrading a Pocketbook device?

Did you try doing it while your device is connected to a charger?

It’s not something that’s mentioned in the user manual but my device won’t do the firmware upgrade either unless you press these buttons while the device is charging.

Thank you. You are right.
The USB cable has to be connected before pressing the buttons
