[Q] Reverting back to your original firmware

I've just flashed Echoe 2.1.1 rom over my I9505 and later there is a new firmware update from Sammie - MI1. Will I brick my phone if I flash the new official firmware using Odin? Are there any method where you can safely downgrade to your original rom?

You can Flash Stock firmware using Odin I don't see any issues and if u have a nandroid backup of your old ROM that will also work just fine
B4 doing anything if u have not done Do take a efs backup and nandroid backup and keep it safe somewhere on Pc/ Sd card
and after flashing Stock firmware I suggest full wipe / reset for error free experience

You can flash any custom rom you want ie: Kitkat/Jelly bean/AOSP . but you cannot downgrade your phone using odin mate , You need to download a custom rom and then flash Philz recovery or TWRP , Do a nandroid backup and do a fullwipe and flash the rom.

Can I Install Stock Firmware on my SMG530H Using TWRP Recovery?

I'm running RR CM13 now, every custom rom i installed can't solve rear camera problem.
Anyone please help me, can i install stock firmware using TWRP??

Installing a stock firmware through twrp is a tedious process...it gives u a headache.. The better way is to do it via computer through Odin.. U can download the stock firmware from site called Sam mobile..
