did you change id to CHAR(36) in mysql ?
you could
alter table by adding a temporary 'newid' field
$this->saveField('newid', $new);
once looks good remove id, rename newid to id, add indexes etc...
or
UPDATE entries SET id = uuid();
Careful if you have related tables with foreign key, as those need to be
updated as well..
