I have upgraded my Samsung J4 which was running Oreo, to the latest Pie 9 android version! I have already downloaded the stock rom of Oreo version which I intend to flash with Samsung Odin on the computer! Are there any safety precautions that I need to take before downgrading? Thanks

Not really...just make sure its -XXU2 oreo. Otherwise you would get error and it wouldn't even flash anyways. I downgraded too...but back on pie with root now

Good day! I am new to android world of customizing. I have a dual sim Samsung Galaxy J7 2016. I got it rooted already so i have no idea what method was used to root it. I've read that j7 2016 is upgradable to nougat. If my phone is not rooted i may have the OTA update right? The problem is I dont have pc and OTA update is no chance. I have read some tutorial about the flashfire . Will that be safe to use to flash my phone with nougat firmware? please enlighten me. thank you very much.
I was in Marshmallow and install a ROM called Nougat stock for j7 2016 and I run normal and correctly my variant is J10MN I am from Panama.

Hello, can anyone help me with downgrade? I need to downgrade back to Android 9 somehow.
Download latest Pie firmware for your Note and use Odin to flash it.

Hey, i didn't quite find what i was looking for so opened a new thread, I currently have an S7 G930F running COSP Pie U5ESD2 ROM, I wanted to know if a downgrade to Nougat or Marshmallow is possible,I don't care if it's an official samsung ROM or a custon one.
Thanks in advance, LSGio.

The bootloader version in that ROM is version 5, "U5". If you can find a nougat or mallow ROM at version 5 or above then yes you can downgrade.

You can grab your official firmware from Sammobile and flash it using a PC with Odin. It's quite simple, just look it up on YouTube. :fingers-crossed:
I have heard before that there is a "Firmware" in your phone and flashing the latest stock BEFORE flashing a custom rom is advisable because it updates to latest firmware (yes I am asking this because of OOS 11 update).
Question is if this is true or not, the whole time I been using the oneplus camera on LOS 18.1 it has been crashing.. Would flashing this latest stock before a new custom rom be advisable for this reason and may fix my camera for example?
Also a question thats been on my mind for months for the experts, is there a chance corporate or other spyware could be written into this new "firmware"?
Thanks devs
Stock firmware is Stock or OS that comes from the OEM, which is Oneplus, so the firmware in this question is meant for OxyGenOS.
Yes, it may be fixed if you're on OxygenOS 10 before and upgrade to newer LineageOS18.1 which already use newer base firmware which is OxygenOS 11
spyware? believe me, you're not that special to pried into by a corporate. so stop thinking like that.
either you want to use it or not, it's up to you.
my 2cent.

"LineageOS18.1 which already use newer base firmware which is OxygenOS 11"
How could it use OxygenOS 11 base firmware if LOS18.1 was released before OygenOS 11...

CustomROM can be build in any Base stock Firmware either 10 or 11, depends on the Maintainer to make it compatible or not.
for now, it's already been updated to 11, because LineageOS 18.1 is supposed to be Android 11, so it's naturally need base firmware OxygenOS 11.
I have OOS (Android 9), before flashing 11.1.1.1 should I first flash to this android 10 version because of firmware? Or just flash straight to 11.1.1.1?
You could just straight go to 11.1.1.1
