I guess its not possible as boot loader gets updated too.
but you can try flashing the 4.3 firmware if you already have it.
press thanks if I helped you.
Yeah, thats no problem. Just flash a factory image of 4.3 and you are good to go

Hi all,
I tried to downgrade my S4 from the stock 4.3 to the 4.2.2 using odin. Odin success without any error.
Phone rebooted, but stuck with the Samsung logo.
Did I just brick my phone?
Any help? Thanks.

Did you do a factory reset BEFORE doing the ODIN flash downgrade to 4.2.2 ?
If not you need to do that and reflash using ODIN.
Also be 100% sure that you are flashing the correct and specific model/baseband
version of the 4.2.2 stock firmware for your phone.
Only use/download ODIN flash stock official firmware from: http://sammobile.com
for best results.
Good luck!

I would factory reset my phone but I would still get a error, does the process only work with the international version of the S4? because as far as t-mobile, I don't think we have any luck in downgrading to 4.2.2

all you need is reflash official 4.3 firmware using odin. once updated to 4.3 it is impossible to downgrade to official 4.2.2.
so just reflash 4.3 official again and your device will boot up. i myself faced this problem .

so it's impossible to downgrade to official 4.2.2, but is it possible to flash a custom stock rom on 4.3 or 4.2.2 (like a modified stock rom)?

You've most likely got the KNOX bootloader due to this you can not downgrade to an earlier version of an official rom. Custom rom's should work fine not sure about 4.2.2 roms.

Would a equalivalent version of a custom rom work? because I plan to install jovy23's stock SGH-M919 4.3 modified rom, but I am not able to install it due to the errors given by CWM and TWRP
Hello,

No, you can no longer downgrade your phone into 4.3 stock rom after flashing 4.4.2 leak..but you can still dowgrade to 4.3 Custom Rom or aosp or cm11 Have a nice day.

I already flashed the modem and bootloader of 4.4.2, is it still possible to go back to stock 4.3 ?

If your having a problem with 4.4.2 , try to do a Factory reset and wipe cache via recovery.or reflash the rom once again . it might fix your problem. Have a nice day

Samsung didnt release android 4.4.2 for the GT-i9506 still. I think the unique you can do is wait till they release it. You flashed new bootloader & you can't come back to android 4.3 :highfive:

Hello guys,
I want to try new update but,if I upgrade to 5.1.1 can I later go back to 5.0.1(stock one)?
And any bugs on 5.1.1?I read something abot fingerprint on lockscreen?it true? "
******************************************************
We got new update for N910C,is someone try to flash last bootloader and go back to COH4 or even 5.0.?
********************************************************
Ok now with MM 6.0.1 we can back to 5.1.1(CPB3) but no to 4.4.4
Dunno can you downgrade but, i had fingerprint problem and lag after lockscreen. Full wipe and deactivating smart lock(it was activated by default) seems to solve everything for now.
Pa:it was happening on mobile data.
Yes you can downgrade from 5.1.1 to 5.0.1
I installed 5.1.1 but returns to 5.0.1 with odin without problems

I used odin and firmware N910CXXU1BOE1 [Trinidad y Tobago] afert a hard reset and it's all. I have 5.0.1 in my note 4 n910c
I guess you need to do some steps to revert back to KK , you wanna downgrade from major firmware to another not simple update like 5.1.1 to 5.0.1
be sure what u doing or you may get in bootloop or something worse.

Don't think so.
it was said you cannot downgrade as some security fix.
samsung has put some bootloader and that will brick your phone.
Anyway guys from here can make some hope.

No major steps. Same steps regardless of OS version.

100% you can downgrade. Takes about 5 minutes if you already have the firmware.

Yeah, I know it, but the question is about downgrading to KitKat It should be safe as well, but a confirmation is needed.

Me too, I was rooted but found nothing great from doing so. Note 4 didn't run any better. So I had knox 1 anyhow.
5.1.1 is cool.
So yeah you can flash back to kk
