Hello guys, I wanna ask can I unroot my Galaxy S7 and bring it back to the original version of Android. I use now Lineage Custom ROM and I am not that satiisfied with it. Thanks everyone.
If you download the stock firmware files from somewhere like sammobile, and flash all 4 files (AP, CSC, CP, BL) that'll be a full stock flash and remove any custom recover or root.
But please note by flashing custom firmware you have tripped Knox, so even after a clean stock flash some Samsung apps will refuse to run.
I also recommend in future that if using custom ROM's you do a TWRP backup before flashing. Which you can restore if you don't like the ROM, or if something goes wrong.

I have a Samsung s6 G920F variant, locked onto o2 (UK network) I believe the bootloader is locked also.
I was on Lollipop (with pingpong root) and recently upgraded to Marshmallow 6.1, so my root is obviously gone, and it doesn't seem that there's root right now that works.
I really want to try out the XtreStoLite rom, theoretically could i flash this rom via odin, since its TW based, would it load on without root, and with locked bootloader? I don't really care about Xnox tripping, but I definitely don't want to brick the phone... I'm not sure if the XtreStoLite rom would count as 'stock based' therefore being recognized by the phone as an official operating system? If that sounds correct.

Link to root your phone correctly.
And Yes you can flash xtrastolite with a custom recovery and without root .
Agreed. ROM has root already. Since you're already on MM, don't flash BL and modem, just ROM & optionally addon. Note that if you replace the stock kernel, you'll probably lose root.

If you lose it, just flash the zip below again

Hello,
I rooted my s5 way back when it first came out but I haven't upgraded the firmware at all. From what I remember I had trouble installing a custom recovery so the phone is only rooted. I would like to bring it up to the most current version of android. What's the easiest way to do that? I'm on baseband version G900PVPUIAND2.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: I found this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2742994 which had a link to the stock factory image but sammobile doesn't seem to be hosting it anymore. Is there another reliable place that I can get it? Or would just doing a factory reset of my phone make it so I can start taking OTA's again?
The latest stock firmware for G900V is Marshmallow QC1. You can download it here and use ODIN to flash it:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767155677
If you want to root it you can use CF-Autoroot in ODIN. This will trip Knox if not already tripped (but probably doesn't matter on an older phone like this).

If you want to install TWRP you can use ODIN again:

Good luck.
Hello!
I need some help on restoring the stock ROM onto my SMG920F. I have tripped Knox using CF-AUTO ROOT. This ended up breaking my phone. So me being me reset it back to factory settings and Installimg twrp recovery.
I then did something absolutely stupid. I wiped everything using the advanced features. So in the end had to Install a custom ROM as I couldnt find any stock roms.
I would like to have an unrooted and stock SMG920F rather than a routed one :/ can you guys help with that.
My current ROM is nemesis
I also have Same Issue plz help us
Isn't there a stock debloated version posted on here? It has the june patch, so it should be almost at the top of threads.

You need
SamFirm 0.3.6.0
Odin Odin3 v3.12.7
Open SamFirm
Paste in Model SM-G920F
Region DBT
Mark Auto
Click to check Update
Mark decrypt auto
then download.
find the odin flashable stock Rom at the same folder SamFirm, unzip.
flash "G920FXXU6ERF5_G920FDBT6ERF1_G920FXXU6ERF6_HOME.tar" in odin as AP
and your S6 will live again
but if Knoxx is tripped, its forever...
Hey! I have found a website that provides stock roms. I have installed one and my phone is factory new. I even get OTA updates and everything is official. the only thing about my phone is that i tripped knox lol. the website is
updato
I then found a "how to install an officialsamsung stock firmware using odin" and followed that guide
The rom I downloaded and flashed using Odin is here (just copy and paste this at the end of updato
firmware-archive-select-model?record=583A76F4915811E89F15FA163EE8F90B
the way i did it was wipe the usual stuff when you want to flash a custom rom but instead you use the stock ROM. only down point is that it puts your recovery back to stock to. So if you want twrp again just flash it and it should be good to go
if i could post links i would so if you want them then message me and i will link things to you.
Yes I just answered my own question. A thanks would be appreciated

Hi everybody, I have a SM-G920F with android 7.0 rooted with magisk and TWRP, but with stock ROM.
I'm planning to give NexusOS 9.0 a try and do :
Backup my data and settings with TitaniumBackup
Backup everything in TWRP
Flash ROM,magisk,Gapps according to NexusOS's thread
If I want to go back to Stock, what do I have to do ? As of now, I would think of :
download my latest firmware on https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s6/SM-G920F/
Flash it through Odin by selecting the firmware in "AP"
But do I need to do anything else before/after flashing stock ROM, like wiping something ?
So basically i installed a Superman Rom on my Galaxy S7 SM-G930F (for battery saving reasons) like 1.5 years ago and have been using it since then.
Now it's crashing a lot so i want to go back to Stock Rom and try Oreo.
The phone is unlocked, so i downloaded latest Oreo 8.0 - BTU (G930FXXS3ERLF_G930FOXA3ERKF_BTU) from sammobile.
I was planing on using Odin, putting the files there, (AP, BL, CP and CSC), setting the phone in download mode (first question i have is, the phone goes to TWRP recovery, not download mode, so how do i take to download mode?), and flash from odin/PC.
I remembered that when i installed superman rom i had to do a couple of things like decrypting the phone, so i just want to make sure i don't need to take any extra steps.
Could please confirm that i won't brick phone?
Thanks!
