It's not possible, because the i537 will check to make sure the files are signed with the proper i537 signature. You can try to flash it, but it will simply fail.

You cannot flash a custom recovery or custom ROM on the i537 because the bootloader is locked.

I have downloaded it, but I'm on mac and can't use Odin. There is also a "sboot.bin" file, that I don't know if I have to flash it or not, so I requested the files from someone who knows what is being done, so I won't screw up.

Help! Odin downgrade!!

Plz help everything I try to downgrade I get a fused binary error. (My sdcard is not plugged in)
Current firmware LOLLIPOP

Which firmware are you trying to downgrade it to? You can downgrade to KitKat (NC2/NL1), but can't downgrade to Jellybean (MJ5)...

Could be a bit more specific about the error and how you've tried to downgrade it via odin?

The i537 had a locked bootloader, it is not possible to flash custom recovery. You can only flash 2 ROMs in the development section through FlashFire. If you want an unlocked bootloader you need to buy the i9295.

If he's still on 4.4.2 he can use SafeStrap

True, but I doubt this is would help him accomplish his goal in the end. Yes it is recovery, but if he is trying to install one of the ROMs meant for the i9295 he's going to be out of luck.

Very true. But I prefer safestrap over flashfire, because its safer in the long run.
