I have a Samsung Galaxy S III Verizon (model: SCH-I535) and its currently updated to its latest firmware, I was trying to downgrade/ root it but it wont work it keeps failing on Odin. My purpose was my main question, is it possible that I could flash a stock SGH T999 firmware on my phone? I would be really grateful if someone showed me a step by step process on how this could be done.
And recently I cant do anything with my phone but officially upgrade it. I think when i upgraded its firmware the security suddenly got tighter, can someone help me about this?
My plan was suppose to be (knowing that 4.3 and the latest firmware on my Verizon prevented me from doing anything): to downgrade to a lower firmware version, then flash the T-Mobile stock firmware.
hey guys, so im sure many have tried to put cyanogenmod on a VZW Samsung Galaxy s III with 4.4.2 OTA on it. but couldnt. im really looking to put CM11 on it. im very much so new to rooting, and flashing roms, but i already rooted my device, and flashed the stock firmware back, due to not having a CWM back up and getting "system software not authorized by verizon" warning.
so my question.
can i downgrade my firmware from 4.4 to earlier to have an unlocked bootloader without bricking it? do i need to go to 4.3 and then 4.1.2?
because before 4.3 it had an unlocked bootloader.
I really want CM because i cant stand touchwiz anymore. thanks guys . help a newb out
oh and. should i use towel root? or another rooting method
Your now on the locked bootloader and you cannot downgrade to another firmware. You can root with towelroot but that's truly about all you can do

Hello, due to me having to replace a broken S6 that was running 5.0.2, my new phone was running 5.1.1 by default. When Android M came out, I decided to go ahead and upgrade, hoping for an exploit. However, this hasn't seemed to happen yet. So my question is, since 5.0.2 is the only OS version I know of that can be rooted for my device, is there a way I can downgrade from M to that version? Or is there any other way I can have a rooted phone? I am by no means an expert with this stuff, but any help would be IMMENSELY appreciated.
Unfortunately, no and no. The consensus seems to be that a new root method is unlikely to be found.

Attempting to downgrade at this point will render the phone useless until you flash the version you are on or higher through Odin.
Hi,
I just bought a Like new S6.
I thought I was getting a factory unlocked device, but I got a Verizon unlocked phone (for other carriers) and full of bloatware from Samsung and Verizon.
I can still return it, but before doing so, I was looking for options about rooting or installing a different ROM.
it has Nougat 7.0, Firmware G920VVRS4DQI1, Kernel 3.10.61
As I understand, currently there's no way to modify anything in this model, right?
Should I return it?
Thank you for your replies

You can't downgrade.
You don't need neither.
