so i converted from CEX to DEX on 4.21 rebug. I still have all my eid root key and CEX-FLASH.EID0.NORBIN n DEX-FLASH.EID0.NORBIN and more. Do i need to be on 4.21 d-rex to switch back or can I do it from 4.65.2?

if you converted over without flash dumbs then you made your flash dumps in the process of converting without them, should be on your usb or in dev_hdd0/tmp. now just follow the method doing it with flash dumps
