acctually using MaximusHD 6.0
I'll be very greatful!!!

No, you cannot run a 6.0 rom on 5.1 firmware. You will get a bootloop.

If theres no rom from the carrier you have to wait. You can look into s-off but not sure if sprint/telos/verizon and other corrupt carriers have locked them out..

Newbie question regarding firmware updates

Hi guys,
So I have the unlocked HTC One M8 Asian variant, im rooted with unlocked bootloader and S-On. CWM Recovery.
I am now running CM11 on 4.4.4 and I want to go and try some Sense 6 based custom ROMS like Viper or InsterCoin.
Do I HAVE TO update my firmware in order to do so? What is exactly the firmware and how can I know what i'm running right now?
Any good tutorial in order to update firmware while S-On or guide to install sense based rom without updating firmware?
THANKS!
Nimi

Software Downgrade

Hello guys. I am currently running android 5.0 (V20A). Can I downgrade back to android 4.4.2 and if yes can I do it by just installing a 4.4.2 firmware ?
Yes.
Just flash stock firmware for your variant.

My tablet won't update to 6.0

Should I upgrade to Official 6.0 first or just flash 6.0 AOSP CustomROM?

Hi, I'm new in here
This is my first thread
I'm confused what should I do before upgrading to Marshmallow firmware?
I mean we already have 6.0 Custom ROMs (tried marshmallow RR and then going back to CM 12.1)
and now there's official marshmallow firmware, then there's PAC-ROM that have updated their blobs (what is that) and updated MM bootloader. They said I need to have marshmallow bootloader
so what should I do to have marshmallow bootloader? what is the benefit/difference for now by having MM Bootloader on customROMs than last build?
sorry if you got confused too
I'm a big cm13 user. But right now I'm on mm stock. I think asus got it right with this upgrade. If I were you I'd go stock mm until the devs get cm14 out.

I'd go for stock MM
