Sammobile 5.0.2 tar fails after nand write

Trying to downgrade my Metro s6 from rooted 5.1.1 with twrp... back to 5.0.2 which I've always done on every Samsung phone ... some reason even the official sammobile tar fails in odin after nand write.
Is the s6 not dowgradeable?
You should be able to flash any tmobile s6 tar onto even the metro version ...
I've even tried deleting the .md5

You nailed it. 5.1.1 bootloaders can not be downgraded back to 5.0.2.
Even Samsung warned the users.

:thumbup: I figured that was something to do with it .... I was just trying to flash the 5.0.2 camera mod for the s6 that apparently only works with 5.0.2 Improving the jpg.. quality much like the s5 had
Some say it works but i haven't tried it .

Galaxy s6 smg920r7

I have a galaxy s6 s-mg920r7 I recently downloaded a apk twrp 3.0 and flashed to it which caused soft brick I can now only get to download mode. When go recovery it loads twrp up fine but touch screen doesn't work if try boot up normally it bootloops any suggestions be really appreciated
Carrier: ntelos
Firmware:5.0.2
Update I was able to get working again by flashing sprint stock rom that comes with skipsoft android tool
Update #2 I am doing stock 6.0 update I'm starting by flashing 920f UK 5.1.1 firmware then downloading galaxy care .apk will update wen or Thurs for update on how went
Wtf ... You cannot flash different model roms... It can couse hard brick from bootloader ...
As of right now can't get beta mm yet but got 920f rom on idk if it's cause the phone u get from ntelos "sprint owns" is a really which listed as generic CDMA no carrier bloat but always use 920f and 920p roms

INSTALL BACK TO STOCK THEN use the cf auto root download this use google to search first one that comes up use that link go to model sm-g920p cspire and sprint uses
the same network . Use odin to install i have same phone and have mine rooted in this way. So far tried using the sprint version custom rom it will work but you can make phone calls but not the data side for phone internet. Make sure you go to settings in the phone under find my phone and turn off activation lock

Can someone help?!?

I rooted my note 5 (sm-n920w8) and installed sick as hell rom. Apparently, I installed the t-mobile version of the rom (sm-n920t), as this is what the model number of my phone now says.. I am now trying to unroot my phone, but odin fails to flash the stock firmware for model sm-n920w8. I dont want to just flash the t-mobile firmware, as I am worried it will make the phone useless in my area. Any solutions to this problem?

unlocked want to flash firmware

Was on ATT, unlocked, now on T-Mobile. Phone is 3 yrs old, sketchy; shuts off randomly, has issues. Want to flash firmware, but Sammobile doesn't have 915a. Since it's unlocked and on t-mobile network, can I flash with t-mobile firmware? Can you put any carrier's rom on an unlocked phone? Sammobile has "usa" firmware with no carrier designation.

Did you find a solution? I flashed the firmware uploaded by makki666 found in another thread on updates for Note Edge from at&t. Right now am using 6.0.1 but may revert to basic 5.1 1 to get temporary root & get rid of bloatware (have not figured out what is worse, outdated OS or bloatware). If you found a better solution, please posr

What happens if unlocked phone is upgraded via Odin?

I have an unlocked phone on Marshmallow.
Will it become locked again if I upgrade it to Nougat using Odin and the official firmware?

Thank you for the firmware source.
Just to clarify, you flashed only that AP, no additional modem or bootloader files?
In addition, is T-mobile a cell phone provider also in Arab emirates? I did some search in internet and it seems the answer is no.
Would it be possible somehow to compare if your phone and mine have been unlocked the same way?
Thank you for any additional help

No my service provider is Etisalat not Tmobile but i bought this phone on Craigslist and it was locked on Tmobile network so the owner sold me very very cheap he didn't know how to unlock it.
I bought it in 140$ and and it's brand new condition almost untouched.
i used a software in windows pc called "Z3X samsung tool pro v29.2" a cracked version to be honest to unlock this phone permanently.
After that i flashed nougat via odin just in AP tab and still unlocked.
I did not flash modem or bootloader separately because this firmware comes in full package Bootloader+Modem+CSC+System all you have to do is use AP tab and upload firmware then flash it.but remember you have to do factory reset from stock recovery immediately after flashing successfully otherwise it can get bootloop
Even though i try Tmobile sim unlock app that comes pre installed but it didn't worked cuz i don't have Tmobile sim card.
I am not sure your phone situation to be honest but since its UNLOCKED already so give it a nougat shot.
