Do the MM update by downloading from Sammobile.
Don't screw around with OTA updates. . . . too much chance of an error.

That I couldn't say.
Why not a custom ROM with root?

It seems your phone is a little different due to the bootloader.
I did find this though:

Do a little research on the web and on this board.
You'll probably find some good answers.

Any way to downgrade to Kitkat 4.4.4?
Thanks
Mod Edit:
Thread closed at OPs request.
You can downgrde by using Flashtool by @Androxyde and flash 4.4.4 ftf for your model but you will loose your data because of lollipop ART. If you need a ftf i can upload one for you

Thanks. I'm not going to flash it right now, but I'll need latest version of Kitkat available for D2302. I'll get my hands on a PC in a week, then I'll flash the phone.
I have one question though.
After downgrading through flashtool, will my phone be able to recieve OTA? (in case they decide to release fix for camera) Or will I have to flash again for update?
And I saw that some people were saying they had good camera after lollipop, May I know what did they do?

Yes, after downgrading you will be able to OTA upgrade to lollipop but I think OTA won't work if you have an unlocked bootloader. And i don't know how people with a good camera quality have do this.

Thanks! I have an unlocked bootloader. I'll definitely flash Kitkat now.
Hi,
Could anyone please upload latest stock Kitkat 4.4.4 ftf for D2302 India?
Is there any difference between different countries ftf? Like FM frequency, etc.
And one last question, Can I flash stock Sony ftf with Locked Bootloader? And will it still be able to get official updates?
Thanks
i've just got my opo back after a long time not using it because of broken screen.
i need to update it to MM rom and i want to know what is the most recent firmware available.\
i found a firmware zip from the 01/02/2016, is the a newer one?
Tnx ahead!
Here is the latest official Rom for the OPO.
https://cyngn.com/support
It is still Lollipop, there is no update to Marshmallow yet.
If you still want to have Marshmallow you have to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom rom.

Hi,
Today my i9505 (stock) notified of an update available for download (392.94 mb OTA)
Would updating make my S4 difficult to flash? currently on I9505XXUHOJ2 could not find any information on what's new/changed in the update.
Also is the OTA update ok or do I need to update using the Odin method as the below linked site suggests & so do most of the past firmware update posts on xda?
Smart Switch says the file size is 1458 mb
I dont mind following either way to update my S4.
Ref: samsung-firmware.org
Thanks!
oh boy, it is still 5.0.1
not shure if I go to try this, the last one has a bug on my phone, don´t know, it was maybe the settings and back button bug.
but also 5.0.1 is maybe to outdated?

Anyway, I have downgraded my stock rom to Jelly Beam (via sammobile.com). After this, I can easily handled the root and the custom rom install processes (resurrection remix).
Hey guys hope you are having a good day, I read online that some variants of galaxy s7 won't receive the nougat update, is that true ? Or did all the variants receive it ?
Thank you in advance.
After reading too myself, It was found to be a bug. If that is indeed the case, there is no reason to worry as you can easily use ODIN to flash the latest version of Nougat.

Thank you that's reassuring, so I won't have to worry no matter what variant I get ?
Yup, don't worry, the cases you have been reading are isolated cases.

Yes it is but you have to make sure that you stay on BL3. You can't downgrade the BL. He used a thread with the latest Nougat Odin files.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/at...n950u-stock-n950usqs3brb2-odin-files-t3761567
Once back on Nougat, download BK package disabler and freeze both software updates (just use the search feature and type in updates) so that it don't auto update on you.

You have version 1, version 2 and version 3. If your on oreo then you are on version 3. Search which firmware version 3 runs on and you'll get your answer, or you can use the link i gave you to the last Nougat version 3 that was pushed out by AT&T. I think there were only 2 firmwares on Nougat that ran on version 3.

Yes it's super easy. Using Odin, you can use one of the threads below. BRA8 is a hair older (1 month). BRB2 will have the latest security patch

Yes. Samfail V3 will work with either one of these firmwares.
Can I use the BL included in oreo for Note 8 to down grade to nougat? Now that I upgraded my tethering doesnt work and neither does wifi calling.
