You need to use odin 1.85 to downgrade. Look in here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2100642
Hope this helps.

i think you mistook me...my question is : can i flash the firmware itself without using .PIT files over the current JB..?? by the way, mine is a 16GB version... the link posted above is for 8GB version..

Oh..I think you need it and no you can't flash directly gb fw over jb. The 16 gb pit is there somewhere in the forum you can search for it. Instead of downgrade directly to ddlk better use that multi gb in the thread and then flash back the firmware of your country. Sry this doesn't help much.
Link to pit files. See post #4. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258597

For ODIN, you can flash any firmware for any country...it doesn't matter...
For your rooting method, where you got the upd_1 (1).zip from? For my case, I flashed it before i flash cwm...but you have already flashed cwm...and the error on your phone shows a getprop error, which means that the zip is not for your phone...what model are you using?
I suggest you to refer to the official thread in xda about how to root sga...it's the most effective and working way...

n920a nougat

Hi i have a n920a unlocked gsm and i have Android 6.0.1. I would like to upgrade to 7.0 but ota does not look for updates and Smart Switch does not find them. flashando ap, bl, cp and csc via odin I will lose the unlock for GSM networks? c is some other method to update to nougat?
If your phone is already unlocked, you will not lose the unlocked status if you update the firmware. Use odin.
When I can find this firmware?
I have find a firmware. When i flash with odin what should i flash between ap bl cp and csc?

When you extract the archived firmware file you downloaded, you should end up with a .tar.MD5 file. Put that in Odin's AP slot and flash it.
Thank you. I have find a firmware at&t but I dont like at&t customization. Can I flash the firmware of another note 5 for example n920c?

u can disable them only,i mean att bloatware
When I have buy my n920a was installed 6.0.1 but there wasn't at&t customization
Samsung support will likely not be okay even if you flash official firmwares through Odin. We once tried this as the Official unmodified Samsung firmware for the S7 broke to due to an official Google Business Android security update which stopped the phone from booting.
Then again, the slimy bastards will try to get out of everything.

When you flash via ODIN all you have to do is flash the latest. No need to upgrade in between.

how to flash stock rom on galaxy s10 and s10e

download the stock firmware from sammobile for your variant
use odin 3.13 or higher to flash the ROM.
extract the firmware from sammobile
take the AP and CSC files from the stock firmware and put them in ODIN
put phone in download mode and press START to make it flash
phone will reboot and be stock (lock bootloader or flash custom up param to hide bootloader unlocked message)

LOST IMEI - No Signal

Hello guys,
I have Samsung Note 9 (SM-N960F) and updated to Pie.
I usually use custom ROMs.
Recently after flashing a new custom ROM, I lost IMEI and signal.
To fix the problem, I flashed stock ROM successfully but IMEI is empty (UNKNOWN). There is not network signal.
I have previous custom ROM TWRP Backups. I restored to the old TWRP backups. But still the IMEI is UNKNOWN and no signal.
I had efs backup of a custom ROM as efs.img. I tried to restore it using Partition Backup app and terminal but no success.
I flashed Alexander's ROM (DEV BASE) as indicated in this post:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/help/lost-imei-please-help-t3847336
But still the IMEI and the signal problem is not resolved.
If you have any idea, please help me fix it.
Thanks.

what fine model you have?
anyways flash back full latest stock firmware for your device and ull get back imei.
use frija or samfirm tool to quickly download firmware.
when you flash dled firmware with odin, flash all .md5 files. also flash csc.md5 instead of home_csc.md5
if you fully flash latest October/November firmware as suggested it will work.
if you skip steps or don't use the latest files then it might not work.
once back on stock with signal, follow dr ketans guide for OEM root fix as per his pinned topic in the note 9 general discussion forums.
then flash back a recent custom rom.
suspected cause of your problems:
-modem mismatch with device model
-modem mismatch compaired to rom base
you should always flash/maintain BL and CP manually with Odin and never through rom zips. and always read rom OP regarding modem and bootlaoder.

Thank you for your info.
Currently I have slow internet connection. Anyways, I have started downloading the latest firmware using frija.
I will let you know after flashing the latest firmware when the download completes.
Thank you.
Exact same thing happened to flashing the same rom. Made my sim cards not detect. My phone has been down for a week. Finally have a day of work yesterday and fixed it by flashing stock bl, cp, and csc then flashing back to tgp rom.

Previously, I flashed October update. The flashing process completed successfully but the problem (IMEI & UNKNOWN) was not resolved. I posted the problem is not resolved here.
Then I downloaded another more recent update from another region and flashed and the problem is gone. My phone is full life.
Thank you bober10113. You helped me fix this problem.
Thank you m. murray too. I appreciate your help.

For the love of god, why can I not flash T-Mobiles firmware in patched Odin? It fails

I'm not new around here, and I've used Odin many times, but I am trying to flash the T-Mobile firmware on my S10 and it fails EVERY DANG TIME!!!!!!!!! I have all the file selected, and again it's the patched Odin, I just do not understand. PLEASE, help me. Image is attached.
Please for the love of god someone help I will paypal someone 20 dollars if they can help me figure out why it always fails.
I am currently downgrading from Beta 7 to Pie 9 BSIV as we speak on my Sprint S10 using ODIN 3.13.1. Did you download the software using Frija? I am also on a Sprint phone flashing Sprint firmware, is the phone you have originally from T Mobile? If you didn't download the firmware using Frija I would re download it using that and try it.

No I found the firmware on here. Everytime I put the corresponding fields in Odin, it always fails, and I don't understand why.

Download most recent firmware using frija. I bet the one you trying to flash is older than what the phone is currently on. You can't flash older firmware no matter what even if using patched Odin.
abl.efl is bootloader, it is normal to fail at bootloader, cause that bootloader is older than the actually one you do have.
You either have to remove bootloader from firmware (if you can), or flash another firmware with the same - or higher bootloader.
Why don't you use stock Odin?
