How do I downgrade From 7.0 to 6.0.1?? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers

I need to root me S& active and it does not look like 7.0 will be able to be rooted anytime soon.... so is there anyway I can revert back to 6.0.1 my phone is new and has 7.0 on it (just purchased 2 weeks ago) So I am assuming I need to flash the whole PK2 firmware... does anyone know where a link is to the full download to it?

Edit, heres the mirror to get from 7.0 back to 6.0.1
Confirmed working, and was able to switch from 7.0 back to 6.0.1 then back to 7.0 and then back to 6.0.1
Found this one G891AUCS2API2_CL8737252_QB10881022_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.rar here

Its 7.0 not 6.0
this isnt 6.0.1

Has anyone found the 6.0.1 firmware for this phone? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I also really need this firmware as i'm bricked, Every link I can find has failed me. It seems to have either expired or been removed.

New to the Active and wanting to downgrade to root.
Firmware is QE1. Is it possible to downgrade using ODIN?

Do you know if it will brick if I downgrade the firmware? Its on Nougat and dont want to risk having a paper weight.

I'm currently testing this one. Got S7 Active on 7.0 trying to downgrade to 6.0.1 to root. Link I have posted above was pointing to 6.0.1 firmware. First attempt to downgrade failed so far. S7 Active survived so far.
I'll be testing further after work.

Hi. I'm back. Took me a while, like 3 hours to get this one right, but I have managed to root S7 Active on Android 7.0 by following guide from the Russian site. I'd help if anyone is willing to root on 7.0

i had already put up tutorial, and links for Root on 7 here...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-active/development/rom-mod-release-t3635879
also a nice script to debloat, and add s8 mods too ...
(its also where your QD4 odin file originated, look in the root of the rar file )

Latest stock ROM for 10.1 Inch P5210?

Hi guys,
I'm wondering if anyone can kindly let me know what the latest stock ROM version and build number is for the 10.1 inch version P5210? I wanted to know if there is any update - I'm rooted so can't OTA any more and Samsung Kies does not install on my Windows 10 so no way to check updates.
Mine is currently at 4.4.2, with build number KOT49H.P5210XXUBNK2.

A quick look @ Sammobile will help you : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-P5210/
If you need the OH1, i can upload the Rom to Mega or send it by WeTranfer.

Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction.
Is the OH1 version better/newer than mine? It seems to be for Netherlands and I'm not sure if I can install that.

Hi, it's a bitter newer version but still 4.4.2 (for different countries, that's not a problem). No need to install this one if ur still running on 4.4.2.
If ur into Custom Roms, check the forum, 5.5.1 Lollipop is availible for the 5210 and a new Marshmallow (Android 6.0.1) is availible for the 5210 (this one I flashed today, it's like having a new tablet, running very smooth and fast).

G928AUCU2BPE6_G928AATT2BPE6_USA ATT Android 6.0.1_4File i need this file or ant other 6.0.1 full package plz share link thnx
Not sure what you're talking about and my guess is neither does anyone else lol... but to update to 6.0.1 from 5.1.1 just follow this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/att.../mm-update-ota-version-g928aucu2bpd5-t3373689
remember though 6.0.1 has no root atm.

G928A firmware downgrade?

I'd firstly like to state I am new to the forums, and give my thanks to brilliant people who give guys like me somewhere to turn. Now, my question is, is it possible to downgrade from MM PJ1 to OGG or OJ1 or lollipop in general. I've seen a similiar thread about a UAE version or somethung that said it was possible. I have successfully downgraded a Note 3 from lollipop to kitkat, which has locked bootloader too if I'm correct..?, but I would like to have any input before I do this as it is my main phone. Thanks!
yes it is possible.

So in theory, i could downgrade to Lollipop and use the kernal auto-root to possibly get rotot? I just got an HTC 10 so I'm really itching to mess around with that s6 Edge Plus. Lol.

Smt-700 8.4" need help going to lineage please

Hello I am on 5.0.2 now and managed to root and get twrp on there with success. I am trying to go into the latest version of lineage and after countless error 7 from twrp, I believe that I need to be 6.0.1 . Now where I am lost and need help with is really knowing what firmware I will need to get to 6.0.1. Will I be able to root any 6.0.1 firmware I choose or is their a particular firmware that I will need for the U.S region. Also being that this is a fairly dated device I see lots of previous development and many root versions from cf-root to king root. I am comfortable with both options and familiar with odin. I just need to know really what Marshmallow firmware do I want to use for my device and if there is a particular one I should use and whats the best way to root 6.0.1 . I would love to be able to run Lineage 14.1 but after hours of downloading software at 300kb I practically gave up to figured I will try again so any guidance would be great. Thank you

Downgrade Samsung Galaxy s7 G930F (oreo 8.0 to Marshmallow 6.0.1)

Hi,is there any way to revert my samsung s7 back to the stock version 6.0.1? it currently mounts 8.0. THANK YOU
I would be interested too.
I think it is not possible atleast not with odin because of updated bootloader. You can try with twrp and an 6.0.1 based rom if you find any. But i cannot guarantee everything will function
i tried the rom "the galaxy project" with twrp everything works,but i would like to go back to the original samsung stock,i had read about the bootloader problem,i was hoping someone had found the solution
is there a method? does anyone know a method?
Unfortunately there is no other way do to the bootloader
Mixing firmwares is generally not recommended, but it has worked for me in the past. You can try to downgrade only the parts that aren't version locked.
For that, you will need to extract the tar.md5 and resulting lz4 files to get to the raw images and use heimdall to flash them individually. Good luck!
...thank you
how is it going?
