Advanced Ace Hack Kit fails downgrade pls help me

Hello everybody, I am new here and I hope that you can help me with this issue.
My device
HTC Desire HD
Android-Version 2.3.5
HTC-Sense-Version 3.0
Software-Number 3.12.405.1
If you need some other information, please ask me.
I want to root my device but have too less knowledge to solve the upcomming issues.
How I tried
I firstly read the effen manual several times. (I really read it completely)
I activated USB-Debugging and turned charge only to default (so that I wont be asked anymore)
Than I run the aahk-12062012 on a Ubuntu-32 Live-CD.
My problem
The problems appear when the kit tries to downgrade.
It seems that the RUU-download isnt available on the Internet anymore. And my hboot file (PD98IMG\PD98IMG.zip) cant be found.
I tried several versions of PD98IMG.zip files containing several hboot.nb0 files but It never worked.
Here is the wohle content of the Terminal I got during my latest try.
I hope you can tell me what to do.
(I am sorry but I had to censore the links)

[Q] TWRP v2.1.2 custom rom install failed. no backup

I've searched around for a couple hours and couldn't figure out how to fix my situation.
I've tried installing the rom: OmniMetal-4.4.2-20140523-maguro
but it failed with:
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(Status 7)
* Verifying filesystems...
* Verifying partition sizes...
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/0/OmniMetal-4.4.2-20140523-maguro.zip'
I don't have a backup of the original rom on the device.
I've tried using ADB to push the original rom but I get:
error: device not found
Also in windows Device Manager the phone shows up as $ro.product.model which may be why ADB doesn't recognize it.
TWRP 2.3+ has sideload but that doesn't help me as I have 2.1.2 installed
Any help from you guys in getting my phone fixed would be greatly appreciated!
Bryan
EDIT:
I've finally been able to connect to the phone with ADB and have fixed it.

Is it necessary to install as sytem app?
Is it necessary? It eats up memory and battery if installed as system app. Also it is very tough to force stop!

[SOLVED] Unable to flash a rom or restore after motherboard replacement (t700)

Hello,
My tablet had a battery drain problem so I changed the motherboard and tried to install lineageos 14.1 again.
After replacing the motherboard, I turned on the tablet to activate usb debugging. The rom installed wasn't "complete", it looked like an interface for professionals to copy data from the old motherboard to the new... Maybe one of you knows what I'm talking about.
I flashed twrp and booted in recovery mode. Then I tried to wipe data but got errors (for instance "cache partition not found" or "hidden partition not found" or something like this. I'm sorry I didn't copy the error message :/
I tried to reboot anyway but I'm now unable to boot on the rom nor on recovery mode. I have a message : "POWER RESET or UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE" and "ATconsole=ram loglevel=4 sec_debug. Level=1 cluster_power=1 androidboot. debug_level=0x494d sec_"
Only download mode is working.
So I'm trying to install the stock rom, downloaded from sammobile. On linux via Heimdall I got this error when flashing system.img and hidden.img :
Code:
Uploading SYSTEM
0%
1%
ERROR: Failed to unpack received packet.
ERROR: Failed to confirm end of file transfer sequence!
ERROR: SYSTEM upload failed!

Releasing device interface...
On windows via Odin, I cannot flash the tar.md5 file either, it fails.
Someone could help ?
Or at least explain why I got these errors in twrp?
Thank you very much !!!!!!

Update :
I found a way to boot in recovery mode (twrp 3.3.1-klimtwifi) : unplug the battery, replug it and home + vol up + power.
So here is the error when I try to wipe data : "Failed to mound '/hidden' (Invalid argument)"
I installed the old motherboard and I'm doing a full backup on my sd card on TWRP, including EFS partition.
On the new motherboard I can't restore the backup because in twrp > restore > sd card : "No partitions selected to restore".
So here's where I am now :
I can boot into twrp but have an error message when trying to wipe data.
I have a full backup of the old motherboard with lineageos installed and working but i'm not able to restore it
Any help appreciated

And also, when I try to sideload the lineageos zip file I get this :
Code:
Starting ADB sideload feature ...
Installing zip file '/sideload/package.zip'
Target: samsung/klimtwifixx/klimtwifi:6.0.1/MMB29K/T700XXU1CRF1:user/release-keys
detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/platform/dw_mmc.0/by-name/SYSTEM
Patching system image unconditionally...
E1001: Failed to update system image.
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7

Ok, I fixed the restore issue by moving the backup files to : sd_external/twrp/BACKUP/[myserialnumber]
So now I can restore all partition except System, System Image and Hidden.
Error : extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255
I still can't sideload the custom rom. But the error message "Failed to mound '/hidden' (Invalid argument)" disapeared

I fixed/unbricked the tablet by using SamFirm to download a 3 files stock firmware.
I installed it with Odin and it worked like a charm.
Then I could install a custom rom
