The whole point of a hash is that you CANNOT convert it back into the original string. Each hash output has infinite possible inputs which could have created it.

The only way to turn a hash back into the source string is using rainbow tables of known values, but since a serial number is not something like 'hi this is your serial' it is, for all intents and purposes, impossible.
