It's weird. If I have stock nougat my phone won't charge. If I have marshmallow it will. If I have a custom nougat Rom it will. If I return to stock it won't work. Bug in firmware?

I know you could when mm 6.01 came out, but has it been recently blocked with newer versions of mm?
I currently am running G920IDVU3EPD3 which is 6.01. At this stage I beleive I can go back to 5.11 G920IDVU3DOJ6? But what about with latest G920IDVU3EPGG? This is all XSA
Secondly, if I have reactivation lock enabled, can I still upgrade and downgrade without issue as long as its all stock?
I am unable to to to boot into the phone to disable it, I dont want to do a factory reset, so I want to try downgrade to 5.11 and the BACK to the latest version to see if it will somehow kickstart the phone back into booting. I know 5.11 will probably NOT boot without a factory reset, but the attempt to boot and then back to 6.01 may kickstart something.
Flashing 6.01 again does nothing to fix boot problem
You can flash whatever stock you want via Odin as long as the stock is for your region and model.

You can not go back to 5.1. After a certain firmware update Google blocked the ability to go back. The best you can do as far as I can tell is to go back to stock 7.0
you can't downgrade from Nougat to Lollipop, only Nougat to Marshmallow is possible.

I installed this firmware by lost101. When I power on my device. there is some sort of bar flickering on-screen which goes only when I've locked or turned off my device. Is it a fault with firmware? I want to use a stock firmware based on kitkat. Does anyone have a link to the firmware which doesn't have this problem? I was previously on Lollipop and downgraded to KitKat.
you will have to get used to it. it is due to incompatibility with your upgraded bootloader(lollipop) and kitkat ROM. downgrading bootloaders is not advisable since there are many users who bricked their devices in the process.

I went back to Lollipop and it's fine now,
I bought the unlocked USA version of the S8+ (SM-G955U1), and it came stock with Oreo/8.0. I've tried multiple times to flash firmware with Nougat so that I can downgrade and root, because all other firmware for Oreo doesn't work. I don't know if the process is unsuccessful for me because the phone wasn't ever updated from 7.0 to 8.0 or what, but at this point I'm willing to resend this phone and just the Internantional/Exynos version if nothing else works.
Thanks for the help regardless.
With the new betas coming out there is defetly going to be a few people that are going to soft brick their devices installing them. Just like I did today.
Fortunatly I foundd the right firmware after a few hours of searching.
If you have flashed Firmware: ZSB9 from the Beta 4 and if for what ever reason you are locked out this firmware should do the trick
All you need to do is flash it with Odin and you will be back on the Sweet Oreo

This is for the S8 G950F
So nothing special is needed?
Just install oreo over pie like .... if I wanted to install stock os?
