This puts it in a inconsistent state when you try to revert and the radio protection keeps you from fully going back. Mine are in a black screen called download mode at the moment. If they become fixable there will be a post about it as soon as it's ready.
Then of course his sig says:

WARNING: Using anything from Special_4350.nbh file can cause unrecoverable (at least as of now) bricking of devices (I have a dead mogul to prove it!) (Also: titan GPS radio on vogue = bad idea)

Although his post refer'd to wM5 not WM6 non GPS and his sig has nothing to do with the post (as far as i can tell) when i responded that it was possible as per theory, i was met with a quick and harsh reply (also with no explaination)
