Firmware issues while I was trying to downgrade from LP to KK SM-N915a - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I was trying to downgrade through Odin 3.10 from lollipop to Kit Kat and when System4 was being pushed Odin failed and I received a message that said sys rev check fails : refer 2 > Binary 1 and emergency firmware recovery now shows when I restart my phone. I have tried to use Kies 3 to recover my firmware but it fails with
sw rev check fail: [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1
[1]eMMC write fail: ABOOT
what can I do to fix this?

I've tried using Odin and flashing the AP file of both N915AUCU1BOC6 and N915AUCU1ANK2 and that does not seem to work at all. Plus kies is still not helping

okay will try that tomorrow, download takes a few hours ...
thanks

worked, everything is back to normal. thanks

Samsung closed the backdoor to being able to completely retrograde all the way back to the first original factory firmware that came preinstalled on the Edge (ANY OF THEM) if you took the update from 4.4.4 or 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 then you're S.O.L. on getting back to 4.4.4 as 5.1.1 patched any eligible way to fully revert to the earliest factory rom version....
I found this out the hard way when I played around for roughly 48hr's trying to figure out how to get a LP Edge back down to KK only way possible was to downgrade was to get on LP load custom recovery flash custom KK rom and then flash a KK supported kernel, if I didn't flash the kernel it'd be super sticky bugworthy lag almost none of the function switches were working properly, data wasn't connecting correctly and there was no way of turning on wifi at all really without a supported KK Kernel then all the bugs and stickiness of the rom and switches went right away.

[Q] fused 2 binary 1 error, nothing helps

hi all,
sprint samsung galaxy s5, SM-G900P user. turn on phone, get a "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." error. here's what the rest of the screen says:

this error came about as i was trying to install the custom ROM MOAR here. didnt know that 5.0 android version = having OA6 so i was trying to install that per the thread's instructions. so that messed up somehow and i get the above error. download mode works, recovery mode does not.
tried a number of solutions, including the Kies thing, said that my device was not supported. also tried flashing OA6 stock firmware i believe? not too familiar w the shorthand, just got this phone yesterday. i upgraded the phone when i got it so i am 99% sure it's on 5.0, and i read that this error can be received by trying to downgrade back to an earlier android version / firmware, but as far as i know i've been trying to flash the stock 5.0 firmware. whenever i tried Odin'ing the firmware, i get a fused 2 > binary 1 error. i am downloading earlier firmwares to try to Odin those and see if it helps but I'm really at a loss here. i read that as long as download mode still works there is hope left for me and I'm hoping that's true. please help me at all if you can.

I suspect your phone has been updated to the new build ending in OD3. What that means is that you can not downgrade the firmware. I have read of people successfully installing MOAR via custom recovery but there is no need to downgrade the firmware to OA6. If you can still get into Download Mode, you "may" be able to use Odin (not Kies) and install a custom recovery such as TWRP or Philz and immediately boot into in to Recovery. You will need to copy the MOAR installer to an extSD card prior to doing this. Make sure to read the OP's for both MOAR and the MOAR FAQ where you'll find links to everything you need.

i flashed the latest version of TWWP and had auto-reboot enabled, and my phone booted into the stock ROM. do you think i should still try to install MOAR or just leave my phone alone? im not new to ROMs in general, i came from a heavily messed with S3, but this problem kinda freaked me out. also, my phone is indeed on OD3. thank you so much for your help!
edit: also, can i still install MOAR if i am on OD3?

Yes you can, just don't try to download the bootloader. See if you can get into TWRP, it may have gotten over written by stock. If it did, use Odin to reinstall twrp but turn off auto reboot in Odin and immediately go into twrp manually. Make sure you have MOAR installer on your phone beforehand.

HELP!! ERROR!! "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [system]Fused 2 > Binary 1"

Hey guys I need some help please. I am a bit of a noob and was trying to flash the PartCyborgRom using the BootLoopEdition firmware onto my originally G955U (which I had flashed with the G955U1 FW a while ago). And after I flashed the PartCyborgRom AP file through Odin, nothing happened as in the instructions, so I tried resetting the phone and continued to next step (not a good idea on my part) then I loaded the BL file and midway through that Odin gave me a "FAIL!" and the phone is stuck on Download Mode with the following error "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [system]Fused 2 > Binary 1".
I tried going back to stock and flashing all of the stock fw through Odin, but anytime I try to flash anything I get that same error. If I try to reboot the phone normally it tries to upgrade system but looks like nothing is on the phone anymore and is on bootloop. I am not sure what to do, did I **** up really bad and brick my phone?
I can't even get back into Recovery mode! It simply goes on a boot loop where it doesn't find anything in the system.
PS. when I tried to flash the PartCyborgRom my S8+ was on the latest G955U1 fw.

You are trying to flash old firmware. It sounds like you are already on firmware with the v2 bootloader and you're trying to flash firmware with rhe v1 bootloader. You need a stock firmware that has a 2 before the last four digits of the firmware name.
Firmware
It should be all well and good flashing stock firmware with the number 2, but I can't find any on XDA and any links outside either fail or try to make you pay because it's over 2GB... If anyone has a copy and space on their google drive, I'd be very grateful for a valid download link!

SM-G930F SW REV Check fail device 2 binary 1

Hey guys! I have a problem. I have flashed on my Galaxy S7 (Exynos version) the galaxy Note Fan Edition Port rom a couple of weeks ago, but now I flashed the latest stock firmware from Sammobile via odin and it always fails at the bootloader. I don't know why? I searched for many hours for a solution, but nothing works.... I hope somebody could help me
Here is the link for the note fan edition rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7...-galaxy-note-fan-edition-port-vol1-0-t3633626
OEM unlock on?
Could also be that the latest bootloader prevents rolling back, so if you're trying to go from a newer bootloader to an older one it won't let you. You can probably just exclude the BL file and be fine.
Is that Fan Edition ROM you flashed not a S7 Edge rom made to work on the S7..! Maybe your phone shows up as a G935 now?
I have flashed android 8.0 manually from sammobile via odin and it got stuck on emergency recovery and I somehow got it into the download mode and every time I want to flash my stock firmware it says device 2 binary 1... I also flashed twrp recovery and wiped everything (system, data....) and tried again and it always fails in odin and says device 2 binary 1.. Im trying to find solution but everytime it fails. PLEASE HELP ME

Hi! Same error but different situation.
I was on the latest firmware 8.0 ITV, I wanted to downgrade to nougat, so I downloaded the first 7.0 firmware BTU (the one that was the best for my S7).
I opened all the firmware files on odin 3.13.1 and I started the procedure but at a certain point everything stopped, on odin the message "failed" appeared and on the phone the message "sw rev check fail (bootloader) device 2 binary 1".
I tried with a different version of odin but the message remains the same, I also tried without flashing the BL file but nothing ... In the end I had to flash again the latest firmware oreo ITV and no errors appeared, but I find myself at the starting point
specific that my S7 has never had modding operations, the knox counter is perfectly at 0x0, I have always used only original firmware and never had problems with odin.
How can I downgrade without having in that error?
Hi just flash this version of latest nougat G930FXXS2DRDI, this is binary 2 firmware (XEO)

Can't flash stock firmware in ODIN 'Secure Check Fail (CM)'

I flashed twrp and booted into stock system and started getting a message saying "only officially released binaries are allowed to be flashed".
I cannot boot into system and whenever I try to flash back to stock 'CRAP' firmware I get a message saying Secure Check Fail : (CM)
PLEASE HELP!
I am new and read that you cannot flash backwards. I was on CRD7 or some crap and tried flashing back to CRAP. Once I downloaded a CRD7 rom and flashed it using Odin 3.13 my problem was solved, but now I have to wait another 7 days to try flashing twrp again so I can get root back. I don't understand why I didn't have this 'only official binaries' and RMM state problem the first time I flashed twrp and was able to root without problems but that was on the CRAP firmware maybe that's why...

Trying to downgrade from 7.0 (3/2018) to 6.0.1 (2/2017), Odin not working

Hi, I'm trying to downgrade from 7.0 to 6.0.1. Odin keeps failing.
When Odin fails (after NAND write start), I see an error pop up on the Download mode screen (red letters):
SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 6, BINARY: 5
Tried different versions of Odin, and made sure I had a good copy of the right version of firmware from Sammobile.
Any idea if it's possible? Is there another way to do this besides Odin? Phone is not rooted, stock, Knox intact.
I've been off Samsung for a few years, and my memory is spotty... but would it help if I installed a Recovery, then flashed a custom 6.0.1 rom? Or is that also a problem?
Thanks for any help!
Mike
