How To Downgrade Nougat to Marshmallow - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello, if you can downgrade of Nougat to Marshmallow? nougat is bad, free, shorter battery life. Sorry fot me.english. Falshtool + Marshmallow = bootloop

Wipe all partition. Just flash, no bootloop.

I doubt that you forgot to wipe data, select userdata in wipe section in Flashtool.

I've marked these options in the program, does not work
I was updating via PC companion

I was getting crappy battery life, but reset all app permissions fixes it.

I was doing so. But the phone worse working on Nougat a mode stamina to defeat.

risk downgrading

Hello,
After solving the stamina issues with nougat I'm facing an incompatibility of a professional app and nougat so I need to downgrade back to Android 6.
I call Sony and they says it's impossible ! In the repair center.
Are we sure it's working well with flashtool ?
Thanks

Yo compré un Sony Xperia X hace como un mes, cuenta con Nougat 7.1.1, sin embargo quiero pasarlo a Marshmellow 6.0.1, es posible?

Remove sdcard, and select to wipe everything except SSD(internal storage) and flash.

Make sure to tick all the wipe boxes, if it didn't work, download a different FTF file, here's a link:
http://www.xperiablog.net/2016/12/0...and-z3z4-series-with-november-security-patch/
Get the one for the Xperia Z5, make sure it's for your device because there is the Dual SIM version and single sim version.

IT worki?

[Q] I lost my warrantee? Pls quick

Hi,
3 days ago, i buy my m2. Really love it.
I updated to 4.4.2, but i don't like it, so i downgraded with flashtool to 4.3
Then i root it with TowelRoot, and i installed Busybox.
Today i noticed this with my screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
gap LCD <> digitizer
So i reinstall phone with Sony's program, Pc Companion to lose root, 4.3 and busybox.
Now i can return the device to T-Mobile with warrantee?
I Worry about build number. Original kitkat was 18.3.c.0.37, now with reinstalled with PC Companion is 18.3.c.0.40. Is this matter?
Sorry for bad English
Pls answer
If you didn't unlock the bootloader, you didn't lose the warranty.
The build number does not matter, because you updated it with PC companion - you are running the software Sony gave the device.
Just in case make sure you don't have any towelroot etc on it before giving back. Just do a factory reset.

Calm down man , i have this on my device it's not a problem . I think everybody have this . It's useless to return it to sony .
I think no, because in the morning, i went to Media Markt shop (because i bought a case for m2) and there was an m2 on the view phones, i checked and it hasen't got problem like this.
But anyone else have this problem too? maybe this is an seria error.

Reinstalling with pc companion wipes all data from the phone, that's why there is nothing on it anymore.

Nope, after seeing the pictures I took a look at mine and I don't have that light there. Mine's a white version though.
I bring back, and they say, they can't do anything with this, because it's not affect the operation of the device.
Not bad...
Well, that's why I'm never buying from a physical shop/provider. Online orders can be returned without question asked.

I think XperiFirm is the only way to find a Orange_FR ROM. You can try another customization. I've looked for and Orange_FR and Orange_Caraibes_FR have this message, other customizations don't show this message.
Sony don't keep old ftf's on the server for long after a update is released. Best bet is to look on here.

No, you don't need root. All Sony stock roms are flashable without root or unlocked bootloader

You can try to cross flash updated roms for other regions you can try with no risk but only with dload method that if one version isn't for your phone it will just inform you "incompatible version" and ask you to restart with out change anything (I'm not advice you to do it with twpr because with it you can install every rom and you might brick your phone)
First try C636B321 (it's same as C432-C10) if it fails then try C185
If it fails again then there is nothing else to try except wait for your official OTA update
Make sure that when you flash others version rom phones works great but you loose live themes and maybe Huawei backup app, Huawei care app.... And when you install back your version then everything works back again

Please help SM-J710F

Hello guy, first of all hello and sorry for my bad english, I hope someone here could help me.
I have a j7 2016 (SM-J710F) After the update to android 7 my touchscreen stopped working, I tried downgrading using ODIN, I tried flashing TWRP but nothing works.
When I try to install stock rom via odin this appears
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",

If i try to start the phone...
I even tried with smart switch but it won't display anything, I think I downloaded at least 5 stock roms, none works.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Is there anything I can do to fix it or I can just throw it?

microstutters in games on wifi seems to be gone finally, i hope it stays that way. but now random lags are more common, making it a pain to play real time games
