downgrade from nougat to marshmallow - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I'm currently on a nougat tw rom and want to downgrade and flash a marshmallow rom to test some things. Do i need to reflash everything via odin or just mm bl and cp that can be done by flashing a mm rom without pc?

Same here I just updated to Nougat and wish to downgrade back to Marshmallow 6.0.1
Galaxy S7 930U Unlocked USA - back to stock rom.

What ROM are you looking to flash? In most cases in the Aroma installer the dev's provide you with the appropriate dated modem and bootloader without you having to do anything yourself.
Im always switching between SuperMan Nougat and SuperMan Marshmallow.

Wanting to go back to factory image on my Galaxy S7 930U unlocked.

Okay so I had Xposed on a rooted version of 6.0.1 I then installed renovated 6.0.1 which changed my Android version to 7.0
Does this mean I can't install Xposed now?

However I'm unsure about this
Any help would be appreciated

also can i flash old kernel based old bootloader like "arter97" without any problem ?

MM roms as far as I know will work with any mm bootloader even nougat roms work on mm bootloader. Also any mm kernel will work with a mm rom/firmware

Require Nougat Stock ROM base before flashing 7.0 custom ROM?

I have XsteStoLite Rom (6.0.1) installed over stock 6.0.1 and I want to upgrade to a Nougat custom ROM. However, my device does not have the stock 7.0 firmware out yet (if it will ever get released). Do I need to flash a stock 7.0 firmware from another country to serve as base ROM (kernel, other stuff) or can I flash Nougat custom ROMs on top of stock 6.0.1? Thanks.
No, Marshmallow and Nougat uses the same bootloader so you dont have to update ota

I jumped directly from stock Nougat rom to Oreo rom with no issues. Just backup your EFS & imei in twrp.

Any way to use custom Android Lollipop and Marshmallow custom roms if I am on Nougat?

Hello guys,
I really miss android 5 and 6. Currently I am using latest official sammy rom for the 920F.
Any way to install via TWRP a lollipop or mm rom and use it? I remember i'v tried one and the device got stuck and only odin saved it.
Thanks!
