[HELP PLEASE] 7.0 Nougat Downgrade won't work - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Android Version: 7.0 / SDK 24 (Nougat)
No Root
Firmware Status: Official
Latest Firmware: Yes
Firmware Build: G920IDVU4FRD3 (was an Optus phone in Australia but I don't care for calling people the phone has no sim I just use it for games idk if that helps my problem)
Hi all,
I've got a SM-G920I trying to downgrade to Marshmellow 6.0.1 but preferably Lollipop 5.1.1 or 5.0.2 I don't care, which the phone originally came out with. I've downloaded multiple Marshmellow 6.0.1 Firmware files and all fail.I've also downloaded multiple Lollipop Firmware files from 5.0.2 to 5.1.1 (only those two versions for Lollipop). Once I put my phone into Odin mode and open up Odin, put all the files in their correct places and press start, Odin then says this:
Code:
<ID:0/005> Odin engine v(ID:3.1203)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Initialzation..
<ID:0/005> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/005> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/005> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/005> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/005> SingleDownload.
<ID:0/005> sboot.bin
<ID:0/005> FAIL!
<ID:0/005>
<ID:0/005> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
A big red label then says "SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 4. BINARY: 3."
How can I downgrade? I'm on the LATEST firmware for this phone. This Firmware is **** I just want it gone, please. I've also tried flashing an original ROM with TWRP multiple times, wiped my phone, tried again and still fails just because it hangs on the Samsung logo for multiple hours. I've been at it for 2 days currently and can't find a solution.

You can't downgrade to 5.1.1 or 5.0.2 but you can downgrade to 6.0.1
You need to just flash this ROM file via Odin.

After you flashed, wait for the blue LED light starts to blink. When it started, reboot the device to recovery and perform wipe /data.

@İstanbul 1453 I myself have been having the same issue with my daughters Samsung SM-G920I I flashed 7.0 using ODIN & Now the past couple of weeks she has had no data or able to send MMS messages even with carriers correct APN settings. I have even tried several different Android 7,.0 from SamMobile with no luck. We live in the US will this link you provided above work here as well?

I cant unroot my Galaxy S7 Verizon (SM-G930V)

I rooted my phone with odin and i decided later that i wanted to unroot it. So i went into SuperSu and went to settings and tried the full unroot thing. My phone restarted and everything and i went to the root checker and it said i was unrooted. Then, i was still getting the Security notification that always pops up saying " Security Notice: Unauthorized actions have been detected ". So i went to that and i decided to try to factory reset my phone from that screen. So I cleared all the data on the phone and everything and it came back completely reset. The only problem was that I am still getting the notification. I have no idea what to do to get rid of it and i want to completely unroot my phone. I have looked all over the internet for the Galaxy S7 Verizon stock firmware. I can't find the firmware anywhere and its really bugging me having that notification there still. If there is no unroot available for the S7 right now, i was wondering if there is someway i can hide that notification for now to give me peace of mind. Thank you so much in advance.

Hi mate
Just flash a stock rom with odin on top of it
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G930V/
back up everything important before you do it ..just in case
Hey, i have a whole new problem now. When i was trying to unroot my phone, i accidentally installed the wrong firmware on to the phone. I turned my verizon phone into a t-mobile phone.
Im not exactly sure what flashing is, but is it where you put the BL, AP, CP, and CSC things into Odin and start it?
I might have already done that because i found the verizon firmware somewhere and when i try to do it in odin. It gives me an error and says fail.

Hi
Yes you need to flash it with Odin
did you downloaded from sammobile?
if not try i from there , follow their instructions :
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
Download Odin v3.11.1
Extract Odin ZIP file
Open Odin v3.11.1
Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
Usually sammobile has only one tar file ( unzip it just once) , back up you photos and files before just in case
Check this thread is not for your phone but the basics apply to all samsung phones

Can you post a pic of the back of the phone showing the model number as SM-G930V and FCC ID. Then take a pic of the bootloader screen and show what what model number it has, if flash successfully it should be showing as SM-G930T. If proven true then it may seem that as the S7 is a Universal Hardware phone (QCOMM that is).
Please Help
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but I have a similar problem.
I tried flashing SM-G930U to my SM-G930V.
Odin failed, and I rebooted my phone. It will only reboot to download mode or recovery mode.
- I have tried redownloading files to check for corruption.
- Using different versions of Odin.
- Flashing to the stock files, which also fails.
- Using stock USB cable.
- Using different ports.
It doesn't seem like Odin will flash anything
Benaiah1287: I am in the exact same predicament...
I got the G930U firmware from sammobile and have tried flashing it with Odin versions 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12, all with failure.
My next steps are to try the stock G930V firmware or to see if the Samsung Software Upgrade Assistant can repair.

I hunted down the Comsy version of Odin 3.12 Odin3_v3.12_PrinceComsy.zip (MD5 hash 136E707B39C2E4CDC47820C68065CD5C)
but I still received a failure with the following output:

I also tried it without copying the BL file only, as I have also read that this could work, but no dice.
I then tried the stock G930V firmware (for my G930V) with the following result:

on reboot it gave me the 'Software Update Failed' screen
I then used the Samsung Repair Utility and after half an hour it was able to restore the original OS. It did give me a new warning about it not being able to make calls until it was set up with a Verizon account, but after reboot it still just has the message "SIM card is not from Verizon Wireless," so I'm assuming it is still in its original "factory unlocked" state.
So, about 8 hours of tinkering later, I cannot recommend trying to flash the SM-G930V at all.
My sole purpose for all this was in trying to get compatibility with Republic Wireless (which claims it supports the unlocked S7 but really means the North American 930U only).

You are trying to flash a downgraded bootloader version/firmware. Your phone has bootloader v4 and you are trying to flash a v2 firmware. Flashing a v4 or above will work.

For anyone keeping up, the source of the 930U with bootloader version 4 is here
...which I found through Fix For Those Who Tried Flashing The g930u Firmware
Too bad I just ordered a G930U instead thinking there was no current release
It appears it was also uploaded to sammobile just yesterday...but I am only assuming because the naming convention does not agree to the guide I found here, and I don't understand the 'PL#' part

I am having the same problem. How do I know the version before trying and failing until I get one that works?
Couldn't the boot loader 'version' be changed/hacked within the (down graded) boot loader so the version check would pass?

Problems after rooting

Hello, I just bought S7 (second-hand) last week and wondering to root it out.
My question is, is there any laggy or issue or something that feels 'downgraded' after the root? Because I've seen many people complain about after their phones being rooted.
Thanks in advance!

If you trip Knox you won't be able to use Secure folder, Samsung Pay or Samsung Health and that's it.
You won't get any other problems.
Hi!
Yesterday I rooted my S7 (SM-G930F) with CF-Auto Root (from desktop.firmware.mobi)
Unfortunately, I didn't notice that the Kernel was 7.0, while my S7 was already on 8.0.
Now I have a lot of apps (including camera, youtube, lightning launcher, opera, ...) that either crash directly after starting or freeze shortly after they are opened.
Do you know if/how it is possible to get a working system again?
Thank you in advance (and forgive my bad english),
Andi
If you download 8.0 firmware files (either use samfirmtool, or go to sammobile.com or updato.com) and flash using Odin, use AP, BL, CP and HOME_CSC instead of normal CSC (HOME_CSC keeps data, normal CSC wipes data), it should set your kernel and everything back to 8.0 without causing any data loss.
Flash guide here https://updato.com/how-to/how-to-install-an-official-samsung-stock-firmware-using-odin
However I'm pretty sure doing this will reset your root, your best bet is to flash TWRP and root using Magisk as its the more modern and updated root method.
Hi @Beanvee7,
thanks for your info!
In the meantime, I have installed TWRP, and downloaded the firmware from sammobile, but failed with magisk (since it is one of the apps that keep on crashing right after startup).
So, I'll have to install it the old fashioned way with odin tomorrow.
But I have one more question left: Is there an advantage of using CSC vs. HOME_CSC? Since I have backups of all my data, and rooting wiped data anyways (the system was encrypted), a wipe does not inflict any (addiditional) damage.
Thanks,
Andi
CSC is probably preferred because it means a clean wipe, so you won't be carrying across any potentially broken apps/system files.
If you have backups then I'd recommend CSC.
Hi!
I am still stuck: No matter what type of installation I choose, it fails:
Odin reports success, but doesn't install the new firmware (neither 7.0 nor 8.0, from updato or sammobile).

The "Now Writing.. Please wait about 2 minutes"-part only takes one second or so.
Installing via TWRP reports "Invalid zip file format".

Magisk still crashes upon startup.
Do you have any ideas left?

SM-G892A to G892USQU2BRE3 repartition failed error

I have a sim unlocked AT&T Galaxy S8 Active (SM-G892A) that I've had number-ported over to T-Mobile for a month or so now.
as it has firmware G892AUCS2BRD4 on it now I wasn't able to update it to T-Mobile's firmware as they WERE on Bootloader V1.
Well today on TMO web site I saw they now have G892USQU2BRE3 out and I was trying to use a modded Odin 3.13.1 to update it.
I previously used this Odin to flash two S7's from AT&T firmware to T-Mobile with no issues so I thought Odin was okay
When I attempted to do this on my S8 Active I get the following:
<ID:0/005> Odin engine v(ID:3.1301)..

I re-downloaded the firmware using SAM-FIRM to ensure it was Legit and got same error.
What am I missing here?
I think I even tried to select Re-partition in odin once (tired and went thru a lot of retries tonight).
Do I need a Super-Special Odin for this newer firmware?
Is it AT&T's darned bootloader causing issues?

I am going to try CF-Auto-Root for Nougat to see if it works on Oreo Cookie. It's worth a try I guess.

Yeah - I don't wanna root my phone - no need, just want AT&T Bloatware that's useless now gone, and T-Mobile apps on my cell - like I did for friends S7's
Has ANYBODY done this?
I really NEED to get this done as I'm missing phone calls and can't afford a new cell now.
Sure wish I had bought a cheaper S7 as converting it to a T-mobile model was easy on my friends 2 phones.
I'm now wondering IS the S8 active the same across cell vendors (T-mobile, ATT, Sprint, etc) like the S7 is??

Everything was ok, I received an OTA didn't remember the version and continue configuring until I install the Magisk.apk and restart the device, the device stays on OEM boot loop again, trying to reflash S8+ Official Oreo CRGB Firmware 07.09.2018 this version, comes the error SW rev. check to fail device 4 binary 3 related that I am trying to use an older version.
So I find 2 newer versions: SM-G955F_1_20180904043214_2afttpa4az_fac // SM-G955F_1_20180904010814_39o648ohci_fac. Try and now the error is the Kernel rev.
Hope you can help me with some guideline here.
Thank you!

As you have already guessed you are trying to flash older firmware than what is on your phone. Device 4 = current bootloader version on phone.Binary 3 = bootloader your trying to flash.
Have a look through this and use samfirm to download latest firmware then flash with odin. Or download latest from sammobile and flash.
When looking at firmware names the 5th number from the right is the bootloader version number.You will need version 4 bootloader firmware.

Anyway to flash older firmware once the device has been updated?
Used to be absolutely fine on older devices, could rollback and flash any firmware you wanted.

No anti rollback prevents this thus this error

Bootloader version numbers,
A - bootloader version 10
B - bootloader version 11
C - bootloader version 12
And so on
You can check bootloader version in download mode.

your best bet is to go to sammobile.com/firmwares and download the latest FW for your device and flash it with Odin. I bet itll boot right up barring any hardware issues

when( only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed ) come out ,i try to downloading and install the SM-950F Firmware,but the error always come out,the phone come out SW REV.CHECK FAIL(BOOTLOADR) DEVICE:11 ,BINARY: 1
and this is computer run out

You are trying to flash a firmware that has an older binary version than what is already on the device. You can't do that, you have to flash a firmware that has the exact same binary as what is already on the device or you need to flash a firmware that has a newer binary.
In other words, you can not downgrade, you can only flash what you already have installed on the device or you can only flash an upgraded firmware, you can not go backwards.
If you are trying to downgrade your device in order to root the device, that is not going to work.

Are you saying that you solved the problem or are you saying that you understand but still need help solving the problem?
Find the newest firmware available for your device, one that has a binary that is higher than what was on the device when the problem started.
