Thanks for fast reply. Can you try the downgrade? I would like to know before I flash that it works.

You want us to do the dirty work for you? Who are you? Why is your phone and your time more valuable than ours? You have all instructions here on XDA and do it yourself. Its not hard.

I asked only that someone had tried to downgrade. You do not have to do a jerk style comment.

Yes you can downgrade back to Marshmallow using ODIN or SmartSwitch, KNOX 0x0

The Answer is; Yes you can!
But, this can only be done on international Galaxy S7, S7 edge variants, including the American and Canadian version, but except to those device with built in “locked bootlooader” such as the Verizon and AT&T Galaxy S7, S7 edge models or we can say models with Snapdragon Processor.
Devices with unlocked bootloaders can be freely downgrade-able, but those with highly secured bootloader cannot be messed around.
As long as you flash the original firmware with ODIN, you'll not have any problem for unlocked bootloaders.
Download the Firmware from Sammobile or use SamFirm. Flash it through ODIN and you are good to go.:good:

[q] flashing different variants

Hi, I'm new with S6 development. Been playing with SONY devices since 2011.
So the question is, can I flash a 920F stock firmware on a 920I device? Will brick my phone? Does it need a special process to make it work?
I really want to flash 920F on my 920I and I need to know if its secure.

You can't flash a firmware for the G920F on a G920I.

Flash 6.0.1 BTU directly over 5.1.1 EVR

Hello
Sorry if I'm posting what has already been asked. I can't seem to find a straight forward answer for my questions.
I have a Galaxy S6 G920F running 5.1.1 EVR (G920FEVR3QOJF),
Is it possible to flash 6.0.1 BTU right over the top without have to make any changes to CSC/root etc using Odin?
Would this trip Knox?
Should I care if it does trip?
Would I then get OTA updates directly from Samsung rather than my carrier?
Is there a downside going to BTU?
thanks in advance

Question about flashing firmware

Hi,
I have a Samsung S6 with SIM lock from the carrier and also their bloatware apps. Can I flash an official firmware from samsung updates without tripping KNOX ?
Thanks !

Depends on the carrier. Usually flashing an incompatible firmware will just fail. Knox will stay untouched. Which carrier is yours?

flash earlier version of marshmallow

hi folks,
my 930f exynos is currently on marshmallow BLP2, its an XEU csc, unbranded UK. i would like to go back to APC8 firmware. am i right in thinking that i can just flash the official APC8 XEU firmware from sammobile? i thought i could but also got some advice elsewhere that i couldn't because of the bootloader? confused as i thought the bootloader was unlocked on exynos devices.

Sorry! I meant "undo"
Because Once updates are installed we can't reverse it, Am I right?

yes offcourse you can undo
just download stock fw via sammobile.com/firmware
use odin to downgrade
make sure you are not having sprint/att/verizon version of edge
mean you must have unlocked international version of s7 edge and knox must be intact

Its European and Asian version I think, SM-G935FD. Also its in warranty, If I downgrade it using this method, Will it void its warranty?

no stock firmware downgrade with odin flash tool does not void your warranty
