I had this exact problem with SM-G890A on 6.0.1. I flashed a stock firmware, and I had no mobile network, sim card wasn't detected, etc. The problem was that my device had the most recent update (from March). I am not an expert, but I believe this update makes it harder for devices to be susceptible to flashes (hence "extra security"). To fix this problem, after flashing a stock firmware, I put my phone in recovery mode (volume up, power, and home) and downloaded ADP, and from there, I was able to download each update after my stock firmware until I reached the update that I was on before I ever flashed. I hope that makes some sense. There is a great post on here with the updates available for download and instructions on how to use ADP. I wish I still had the link, but try searching the updated version that you should be on. Whenever I finished the last update and my phone restarted, I restarted it again in recovery mode and cleared the partition cache. Restarted it again and VIOLA, I finally had service. Feel free to email me if you have any questions. Sorry, I am not great at explaining things. I hope you can resolve this. [email protected]
Fixed and Downgraded
I had this same issue. I was able to fix it by first upgrading back to 7.0 as mentioned above, and then flashing ONLY the BL and AP files of the 6.0.1 firmware using Odin. Worked for me.
U need flash to android 6.0.1 build Pk8.

Hey I had the same problem as you and I was panicking. I downgraded to 6.0.1 from 7.0 final version but the SIM/IMEI/Broadband/anything phone related was broken. What happened was the final build of 7.0 upgrades the security of the SIM/IMEI/Broadband and so if you flash any other firmware, it won't work with the newer security and it'll remain unknown. To fix this, you have to upgrade to 7.0 final build again. Just adb sideload all the way back to 7.0 final QD1 and your SIM/IMEI should activate again. I guess ATT/Samsung is preventing us from downgrading just like Apple
Flash the Nougat Odin package.
Can anybody provide me with a tutorial how to flash B301 update which can be found via Firmware Finder for BTV-W09C100 version? I tried it once but came up with bricked tablet. Fortunately I was able to fix it after 2 days of research. That is the reason for step-by-step tutorial.
Last question: How is that even possible that B301 update can be only downloaded via Firmware Finder app and not via Settings->Update? Is it beta? Can anybody explain it to me? I am new to Huawei products.
Thanks guys
Hi!
B301 is an internal test build. I couldn't find a way to flash it properly, neither stock ways nor using unlocked bootloader and twrp (the update consists of two parts each with a different flashing method).
Better wait until official update appears.

To update to Nougat.
You have to first update to next higher version firmware than what you have and then go to Nougat. I read on some Italian forum that you should not update directly to Nougat. For example: if you have B009 then you have to select next higher version which is B010 and then update to nougat. But they advised against directly updating to nougat firmware from any version. For your model I don't know the exact firmware version but you can check in firmware finder.
(check your about page to find out the exact firmware version for your model)
How to use firmware finder?
Inside the firmware -> go to settings-> switch on the option -> add on proxy
Now go to your Wi-Fi settings
Tap and hold your Wi-Fi connection
You should get two options
Select "modify network"
Select - "manual" option
Then add the below in the respective fields
Proxy - > localhost
Port -> 8080
That's it. Save the settings. If you don't see the update here then go to firmware finder and select the firmware you want to download (select the next higher version than your existing firmware- > click on "send firmware to updater" . And then go back to updater in settings and check. you should see the OTA to update.
Now go to settings - > updater-> you should see update for your tablet there.
Once you are done with the update, again go to updater.
Now you should see the update for B301. This is more than 2 gb.
Just click on update and wait for it to finish. It will reboot twice. Wait for it to finish optimizing the system.
You have Android nougat now on your BTV-W09
Operating system is gorgeous. It is very similar to what I found on Huawei mate 8.
Nougat is beautiful on this tablet. Working excellently.
Some more steps here and many important posts in this thread -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71955984&postcount=23 Check the link to Huawei website to get your rollback package if something goes wrong. Mostly it won't but if you don't like nougat then you can return to marshmallow with the help of rollback package using dload method.
Have fun updating. I would recommend updating to nougat without any hesitation.

This would work if the update was a full rom, but the test nougat build we have got consists of 2 separate zips, and data cannot be flashed after the core nougat zip (for example the updater app is missing from the core zip, it's part of the second data zip)

It will work just fine. I already updated using this method on my tablet and there are others too who did this successfully in the other thread.
After downloading in firmware finder you have an option to push it to updater. That will ensure both zip files are extracted and the update is sent to the updater as one file.
So I can confidently say that this is a working method and because of the steps that I mentioned in my previous post I was able to update my tablet. Otherwise my tablet would still be in marshmallow. But no, my tablet is updated to nougat now.
So I would suggest you and every one to please give a try. It will work. Please follow the steps correctly. Procedure is very smooth.

I just did it this morning with this method on my BTV-W09C128. I had happen what TaRsY mentioned. I no longer have updater app in settings anymore. Otherwise everything is running great. I'm hoping when the update becomes official in the US I can do a full update through recovery somehow

The one in the first post. Unfortunately also realized Bluetooth isn't working. Trying to find a way to roll back for now

Thanks for the reply. I figured that out after asking you. I've already updated Nougat using this method.
I do not use bluetooth very much myself. So it not working is not much of an issue for me.
However, if you find a way to roll back please share for those of us that have made the jump.
Thank you.
My Model is BTV-W09C128 and when I search for firmware I can only see BTV-W09C128B003. How do I get it so I can see the B301 version?

Hello!
Here is the full G925VVRS4DQD1 Odin manual update to 7.0 Nougat for everyone to enjoy. You can flash from any current version you have now it doesn't matter whether you are on 5.1.1 or 6.0.1.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862722630
If for whatever reason you want to downgrade or don't like 7.0, you can safely downgrade to any of the below versions without any issues. After you flash a lower android version using Odin, phone might get stuck on Verizon logo. If that happens, all you need to do is boot into recovery and do a factory wipe/reset and phone will boot right up after that.
G925VVRS4CQA3 (6.0.1) - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862700500
G925VVRS4CPL3 (6.0.1) - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298921946
G925VVRU4CPK2 (6.0.1) - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224407601
G925VVRU4CPD2 (6.0.1) - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24566454284190657
G925VVRU4BOK7 (5.1.1) - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087018504
G925VVRU4BOG9 (5.1.1) - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347845467
Thanks a lot! I downloaded one from sammobile but there was one only one file, modified date 4/07...
I notice the files within the zip from your link mention REV02 and are dated 4/26.

@toutanje Out of curiosity, how did you determine which builds you can safely downgrade to from 7.0? Is it something you personally tested or did someone recently go through the hard work and post their results somewhere? BTW, you can now add G925VVRS4CQA3 (6.0.1) - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862700500 as two people have confirmed downgrade success here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s6-edge/help/downgrading-nougat-t3601096 . One used firmware from sammobile and the other directly from the link above. This is the very last build available for Marshmallow.
Hi there. I installed the new update on my s6 edge 7.0 via verizon software updating tool.am noticing the sound quality of mt s6 edge has been changed.before the sound quality was thick and now its not that thick anymore.i want to bring back the thick quality sound on my s6 edge.there is setting called sound quality and effects but i cant manage to get back that sound quality i had with 6.0.

With a very a simple observation, no testing or anything needed
G925VVRS4DQD1 <-- you see the 4 towards the end of firmware build? That is the revision bit number. This means you can flash ANY firmware for that model with a 4 or higher. Take this 5.1.1 firmware for example ---> G925VVRU3BOG5. Even though this firmware is also 5.1.1 like the ones from above, this particular one will NOT work because it is on an older firmware revision bit (3).
The same is true and goes for ALL Samsung phone/tablet models and firmwares.

That is very good to know. Yeah I noticed it about the firmware naming convention but I had no idea what the value means (or the character before revision bit, U has become S). My phone out of the box was on G925VVRU3BOG5, so I guess I could go all the way back to G925VVRU4BOG7 if "needed" lol.
One of my fears about Nougat is about all the work they did to automate and place updates into the background. This could allow disabling of downgrades, or anything else at the discretion of Samsung and/or the carrier. I think this has already been done in Marshmallow, just on a smaller scale for security fixes. Anyway, it seems to me like an attack vector waiting to happen: less control over my phone combined with an easy way to break things. Imagine all the troubleshooting fun we will have.
So I upgraded to nougat. I'm having battery issues and just want to go back to marshmallow. but I'm having problems. The nougat rom installs just fine with odin. But when I try with any of the 6.0.1 roms it was failing. Then I noticed that re-partition was chcekd. So I unchecked it and now it goes through the process just fine. But now the complains with dm-verity verification failed. I can install nougat on it no problem. It's just the downgrade that's not working... any clues?

I actually managed to get the N925V to downgrade all the way back to the firmware version G925VVRU3BOG5.. May have cost some money for some very specific files but my phone's back on G925VVRU3BOG5 and it's really only a test phone for someone I do work for! I have it rooted with SuperSU and not kingroot and I created a script to keep the phone set to "permissive" so it's able to do full reboots and not just hot reboots using xposed... Unfortunately it seemed like no one cared about it when I posted it in the other thread so it's probably not worth it to a lot of people but I think it is with the amount of fine tuning I did to get it to where it is today!!

Mike! Can you explain how you did it? I'm stuck on nougat. Every time I try to downgrade, I get the dm verity error. I've tried all the 6.0.1 version and the 5.0.1. No luck . I'm back on nougat. Can you please let us know your process... Thanks!
Did you have to select anything special in the options? I just left it at default which is Auto reboot & F. Reset Time.

I mean I could but I had to shell out some money for this firmware and I don't even know if you can flash it with odin because I don't use odin I bought a box to do my flashing since I work on so many phone's and odin just doesn't cut it.

I was able to use this to flash my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge from 5.1.1 to 7.0.
Not that I want to upgrade again, but is there a 7.1.2 available? Is there a routine schedule for that sort of thing or was the 7.0 Nougat think kind of a special case?
Thanks!

I haven't been keeping up, but now curious. Verizon shows DQH1 as current (a 7.0 build), while sammobile and androidfilehost show four builds available (all 7.0).
Ok, so I updated my G925V with nougat, now I'm just wondering if anyone has come out with a way to root this build? That's what I'm waiting for. Plz fill me in when that happens. Thanks.

I use the Z3x box and Octoplus box I have 2 of them for different phone makers but I have so many different wire connectors that I lost count because what works on Samsung doesn't work on LG, HTC etc etc.. You can find them pretty cheap but I'd avoid buying from eBay because of to many scams selling broken or bad boxes that can't be activated.

You unfortunately cannot downgrade the bootloader once you updated to 6.0.1 you lost the ability to go back and there's so far, no way possible to do it.
SM-P585M (10.1 Tab A 6 2016 with S pen) got 7.0 nougat in Brazil.
I Had TWRP, adaptive storage and root on 6.0 so I needed to update it via the Smart Switch PC software.
The software downloaded the flash version and flashed it.
I'd lost TWRP and root, and adaptive storage is not present either.
If someone know how to enable it back on Nougat please inform.
Best regards,

Just did it but smartSwitch isn't showing the update button. There's a lot of spam/scams from other download sites so i've been unable to get nougat.
Just got it, followed this guide from another post:
1. Download Kies 3 for PC http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/co...Kies3Setup.exe
2. Connect your device and ignore any suggestion to download SmartSwitch. (Kies keeps complaining and suggesting you download SmartSwitch)
3. Once you pass all the SmartSwitch suggestions you will be on a Kies screen that looks like its not detecting your Tab S2. From here Click "Tools"
4. Select Firmware Upgrade and Initialization.
5. Type your model name "SM-T710" (Make sure you type this in capitol letters)
6. Type your serial number when prompted.
7. Click OK when asked if you "want to proceed with the firmware upgrade and initialization" (all settings and data will be deleted but not after you press OK)
8. The next popup will be another to confirm the upgrade to OL6. (This is the last chance to abort the flash)
Thanks!
Hey! I was a bit impatient with my Note 9 when Pie started rolling out. I found a zip that I installed through the recovery mode which gave me Pie. Now my otherwise unmodded, non-rooted Note 9 isn't getting updates anymore.

Any help?

So my only option is to revert back to stock and reinstall my phone?
I've got the same problem. Is there any less painful way to fix this? I thought the Zip file was the T Mobile pre release and not suppose to interfere with future updates.

Use samfirm to acquire the latest firmware intended for your Note9's CSC.
You can get your active from:
Settings >> About phone >> Software Information >> Service provider SW ver
You only need to input 2 info on samfirm tool:
1. Model: SM-N960U
2. Region: (your CSC)
3. Put a check mark on "Auto"
4. Put a check mark on "Decrypt automatically"
5. Click "Check Update"
The tool should give you the latest firmware for your device.
Download that firmware and Odin Flash to your device.
That should fix your OTA update.
