A "frozen" node is not editable ,if you want to modify it ,you should first revert the version.

the api for revert says: "The node reference will be reverted to the current version."

so lets say my current version is 1.5 and I want to modifiy version 1.1
1) I have to revert the current version to 1.1?

registry.getVersionService().revert(nodeRef, version);‍

nodeRef: current version Node (1.5)
version: my target version from the versionHistory (eg. version 1.1)

2) than do my changes
3) and revert again using version 1.5? (to have my old state back)

coud you provide an working example?

thanks for your time
