Can be downgraded, but I suggest you to wait some days before doing that, sometimes on nougat takes a while till battery autonomy gets better

The only way to downgrade from nougat to marshmallow is to flash BL+AP+CSC+CP files via latest version of Odin.

What actually drains your battery..?
Take a look... Maybe it better to do a factory reset and see if it helps... Phone works better with 7.0...
Anyway, if you wanna downgrade to 6.0.1, download latest 6.0.1 firmware for a region you are currently running, and flash it with odin...

I don't think this is possible. I tried this once and odin fails to install lollipop firmware

The problem is not the firmware, lollipop firmware requires lollipop bootloader, if you are on newer mm bootloader you cannot downgrade bootloader to lollipop

thats not true. i had Marshmallow update since April and i downgrade to Lollipop firmware very easily. the old Marshmallow April firmware you can downgrade to Lollipop firmware.
it looks like Samsung changed the new October firmware so you can't downgrade no more..

US GS7-s have locked bootloaders, which means we're unable to downgrade until bootloader keys are leaked or T-Mobile unlocks it for us, which probably will never happen.

I just downloaded the 6.0.1 image for g930T and flash it with ODIN and that's it, I'm on 6.0.1 again :d
Ya I have downgraded from 7.0 to 6.0.1 several times already with no problems. My issue is that Nougat rooted is very laggy so I been trying all sort of fixes like govtuner etc but it is still laggy
anyway, here is attached screenshot of how I downgrade quickly and easily on sm-g930t

It's only in the first days because of caching, don't worry, that's good for your phone. It will make the battery much more longer and also having more performance. Lollipop doesn't calibrate like this, and will ruin your battery.
