[Q] OTA 5.0.2. downgrade to 4.4.4 - XT1068 - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi @ all,
I have updated my XT1068 Dual SIM via OTA (21.11.23 reteu version). It has been just two days, however I'm quite disappointed by Lolipop. Although I've done a factory reset the phone is somehow laggy and slow compared to what it was with KitKat.
Is it possible to downgrade to stock 4.4.4?

[Q] 4.4.4 Firmware needed for O2 GB variant

Hi all,
I need the stock 4.4.4 firmware to flash for my Moto X (O2 GB) - I'm in the UK.
It rolled out over OTA a few weeks ago, but I've soft bricked my phone and need to reflash. Anyone got the link?
Thanks
Jamie
I'm not sure it's even released yet for flashing. I could be wrong. You may need to just wait.
Cause you can't flash a lower version without risking a brick.

[ROM] [STOCK] Looking for stock rom from mexico for downgrade

Hello, i've been looking everywhere and i can't get an answer, i have this moto g 2014 (XT1063, single sim) on lolipop 5.0.2, the thing is than i want to downgrade it to kitkat 4.4.4 since i've lost aprox. 2hrs of battery life, but i can't find an exact copy of the same rom i have now(lolipop) on 4.4.4, this one works with any provider except Nextel, so i can put in it a Telcel/Movistar/Iusacell sim on it and work with no problems, it didn't include any provider apps
System Version is: 22.41.16.titan_retla.retla.en.01 amxmx
Compilation number is: LBX22.99-16
Can someone tell me if such rom exists, and if not, which one should i use to downgrade it and not lose the ability to use any sim?
Phone is already Rooted and the bootloader is unlocked.
First the the ROM never lock/unlock the phone bands.
If your phone is factory unlocked and don't work with some carrier it could mean that band isn't supported
I think any titan retla.retla will work but downgrading is always risk checkout for a downgrade guide

Huawei P9 Upgrade from EVA-L09C02B123 (Vodafone)

Hi All,
I am currently running build version EVA-L09C02B123 on my Huawei P9.
This is the stock Vodafone firmware which was on phone when purhased.
I am experiencing issues with lagging/freezing, and unresponsiveness.
Some apps, such as Facebook, also randomly restart for no reason.
After a factory reset the same problems occurs.
I was hoping to download firmware version L09C432B136 and upgrade my device.
Can someone please confirm if it is possible for me simply upgrade my Vodafone firmware to this latest stock version, or will I encounter issues?
Thanks.
Follow these instructions if you want to debrand and still get OTA's: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3384903
I came from a C02, now on C432B166. Once I got 166 via OTA, I rooted again. I'll just keep an eye out for any OTA that I might need in future, but so far, so good with 166.

Thanks for the reply. Followed some of the guides on here and now on 166 and seems to be performing much better

Downgrade Options? SM-T710 Nougat

I have a tab s2 sm-t710 on nougat T710XXU2DQCL that was installed OTA and would like to know if i am able to downgrade to 6.0.1. The device is 100% stock and was wondering if ODIN would give me any grief about downgrading. The PDA number of the 6.0.1 file is T710XXU2CPK1 (Cellular South).
Thanks
On paper, I think you should be fine. :angel:
I'd also like to know this as battery life seemed much better on 6.0.1 for me.
i did downgrade my T 815 from 7.0m to 6.01 using odin. didnt face any difficulties. i did a complete wipe/format after i downgraded .
Can you not downgrade with TWRP as well?

I used Odin and firmware downloaded from sammobile and it worked flawlessly. I've performed downgrades on over 100 tablets so far and they have all worked good.
Downgrded my t713 long time ago and didn't have a single problem, you just need to download a compaitable firmware from sammobile!

You're safe to downgrade as long as it's allowed. Older builds will fail immediately so there is no harm to downgrade.
I've seen a few people asking about downgrading. Whats the reason behind this? Is N glitchy?

N does not work at all well with DJI drone remote controllers. I foolishly updated my brand new SM-T719Y 8" and Now I cannot connect to my drone at all. I have an pre 2016 Tab S2 on Android 6.01 and bingo works.
This size pad is the preferred size for drones and has enough grunt to provide stutter free vision. Cannot comment on anything else about N as this pad will only be used for my drone...

Hi Beut,
I have been trying yo downgrade my Tab S2 SM-T719Y LTE from Nougat to 6.01 and have correct downgrade and Odin. Every time I try to downgrade it fails straight away, so I was wondering what you ment by "as long as it is allowed" & "older builds" will fail immediately.
I need to get this happening as I cant fly my drone.
Cheers Yts...
I don't have your model so it cannot verify. However, other models I can downgrade to older builds close to the Nougat.
Like SM-T580 or SM-P580, both are Android 7, QF1 and QE4 respectively. I can downgrade them to PL4 or PL2, Android 6 but not the PG1.
Q: 17 or 2017
P: 16 or 2016.
The second letter is the month it's released.
You also need the right bootloader, different OS has different bootloader. Many just flash the AP file only without bootloader, it'll failed when downgrade.
Is it possible that you cannot downgrade Nougat to 6.01 as every time I try on my SM-T719Y Tab S2 LTE, it fails straight away. I have tried 3 different downloads and all failed, but Odin will let me overwrite my Nougat with a downloaded version of Nougat from the same web location as I got one of the 6.01 firmwares from.
Here are my fail messages.

Is it me or is it this model of the Tab S2 SM-T719Y????
When downgrade to MM you need the BL ( Bootloader ) goes with the AP . Boot loader of Nougat is not the same as MM , however bootloader of LTE version is locked
Sammy doesn't want you to downgrade.. nougat is planned obsolescence, I'd say.

Hey I've been trying to downgrade my T719Y for days now. Constantly failing and googling everything I can to find where I'm going wrong.
How would I know if I have the LTE version? And if I do and the bootloader is locked, does that mean I can't downgrade?
If I don't have the LTE version, you're saying I need the bootloader and AP to downgrade? Where can I find the bootloader?
I'll keep searching and trying but this is wearing me down. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My surveyors can't do a damn thing with our giant UAV until I fix this
LTE version is the one that has SIM, usually it's next to SD slot. Most LTE versions have locked bootloader, that's why you cannot downgrade firmware.
I just kept an older phone for apps available only for 6.0. Like scr recorder. Otherwise there are no reasons to downgrade
