No.
I said "if the results of (2) and (4) don't match, you can be sure the file was modified during (3); if they match, that most likely means the file was not modified." and nothing else.

There isn't a checksum, hash or anything in the world that will assure this.
The larger the checksum range (i.e. the more bits it uses), the lower the probability of a false match.

If you need to be absolutely sure, you need a check that has at least the same number of bits as the [ADDED] optimal loss-less compressed version of [/ADDED] the actual file itself.

I only read code that is properly formatted, adding PRE tags is the easiest way to obtain that.
