Can downgrade? yes or no?

Hello is it possible to downgrade this new firmware release?
I have already tried all other stock ROMS and ODIN FAILED all time.
I just want to confirm if its possible to downgrade, if yes, then how to go back to 5 1 1.
Thank you for reading

I think it is better to prevent user to downgrade their Phones. As you know, since Android 5.1.1 released, Google replace the Samsung Reactivation Lock with their Factory Reset Protection. But in the lower versions of the android, there is many way to bypass this protection on Samsung Devices. Samsung fixed it on their security patches. Just imagine that if user can downgrade their phone to any version of android, when a thief steals the phone, they can easily to bypass it and make the phone become theirs.

Thank you for replying but I am still clueless if I can downgrade that specific android version I showed in screenshot above.

no one?

Have you tried TEKHD's stock-rooted 5.1.1?

You cannot downgrade... Once bootloader is upgraded there is no way back. You can try but highly you'll end with bricked device ... Also if you try custom roms they wont boot due to mismatch bootloader and recovery. Maybe if you search google you will find a way to do it but if i was you i would not take the risk

Some screenshots from my SM-T705 official Marshmallow Update

Hi to all!
I've just flashed the Samsung official Marshmallow firmware on my Galaxy Tab S 8.4 LTE, I took some screenshots in case anyone is interested in seeing it.
I forgot to wipe before flashing with Odin, but all my configurations, apps and accounts seem to have fared just fine in the updated system. I was using SucukROM by @TimurAlaskara_TR and not stock Samsung Lollipop. SuperSU obiously is not working since I've not flashed TWRP yet.
Only app that seems to have problems is Gallery, it works but it gives me an error nearly every time I exit with "back" button.

Thinks it appear the ROM is the same as lollipop?

My Files seemed to have the same problem as Gallery. It appears it's solved just by clearing data of the two apps from applications menu.

any noticeable performance improvement?

Pls share mega download link for this rom. Tq

This is a difficult question, I've had the tablet for less than a month and used very little stock Lollipop, I've mostly been trying custom roms. I would say perhaps some more fluid window opening/closing animation and a little less battery consumption while in use... But I cannot say for sure. I remember that I had a worse general impression of stock Lollipop when I tried.

I had the same problem. I was using the same version of miui. Are you using uc browser? That was the culprit for me. As soon as i uninstalled uc browser the random freezes ended. Uc asks for way too many permission in the name of data saving and mess up your phone.

Never really had that kind of problems with any ROM. I am now using MIUI 9.2 stable .eu rom. Try deleting davlik cache first, factory resetting if that does not work, then add apps few at a time to see if you find the guilty one.

<<<PLEASE>>> I need help. "Nand writer start" and does nothing else

<<<PLEASE>>> I need help. "Nand writer start" and does nothing else
Hello everyone, I have a problem, if you can help me, I want to put the rom stock of android 8 but when I put the 4 odin files it stays in "Nand writer start" and does nothing else. I have flashed many phones but never I had this problem. The mobile is not rooted or anything strange, it has the factory Android 9 ROM.
I have tried odin 3.09,3.10 and 3.10.7 and the problem persists.
What can happen?? :crying::crying:

I'm assuming you're trying to downgrade to a version with a lower bootloader version/number, which you can't do
You can only downgrade to the version with the same bootloader number.

So I can't downgrade to the android version 8?

did you tried with another tool?

Yes. I tried with odin 3.09,3.10 ,3.10.7, 3.13 and another ROMs the sammobile :crying:

The bootloader is locked in Pie after each OS update to prevent us from downgrading the OS on our devices.

Could this be the solution?

read up all about downgrading bootloaders( its not possible). check what your phone currently has then check what youre flashing. the 5th character (number) starting from the right when checking firmware build is the BL revision.
u can flash an equal or greater build. not a lower one.
also only 3.11.x and 3.13.x and future odin versions work on note 9 to flash firmware files.
in the picture u posted, your issue is the odin build.( ure using and old 3.09.x build)
while rooting might alow you to flash a custom rom(oem unlock is the 1 step to rooting) that is oreo based, not sure why one would want to do this. Q is just around the corner and keeping devices up to date now a days should be paramount.

Thank you very much.
I tried this to unlock the OEM and it forces you to format the smartphone completely, it doesn't work.

Question Xiaomi Mi 11 ultra with Chinese ROM not allowing me to change country to UK in Google play . I currently live in UK but still can't change the country

Is your bootloader unloacked? If you have unlocked your bootloader, you can flash the EEA rom or Global rom or flash TWRP and install a Xiaomi.eu rom. All of those allow for regional changes in setup.

I'd advise you to just get the Xiaomi.EU Rom. Just pick the Stable one IMO

Is there no way to resolve it without flashing the ROM? I am little apprehensive about flashing the ROM as I have not done the before

Have you tried more locale 2 app from play store? If not, you give it a try

It's the version of GMS that gets installed by some shops before shipping. It doesn't have location tracing and a few others and really is not much use if you are outside China. As others have said, get your bootloader unlocked, wait the 168 hours and change over to the EU ROM. Pop over to the EU forum for all the pro's and downloads but everyone here will help if they can and most users post on both forums. https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/21-7-21-22.62299/

Glad you have found a way around your country settings. You may well find other shortcomings in the mini GMS too. Only resolution is to flash a full GMS included ROM. But as long as your needs are catered for, it's all good.
