But since you have break the knox you are not able to downgrade your phone i think
i also cant able to go back......****in chinease ver.... if i instal 4.4kik. through ozcan rom .... then phone's imei no. changes to null....:crying::crying:
facing the same problem here .but finally
Hi friends i flashed the CHN version lollipop after flashed that thing i can't go back to kitkat.but finally i flashed the 'philztouch recovery' via odin and rerooted and flashed the 5.0.1 gapps its done.but how can i go back to kitkat pls tell me any one?
There doesn't seem to be any fix for this. Some users posted that they managed to change to another rom, but they lost the IMEI and baseband. And they don't seem to be able to restore any of them. Even with a backup.
Probably not possible because you also can't downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3, so it makes sense that you can't downgrade.
R U sure
Folks,
I have the same problem.....
Tried to rollback to 4.4.2 and failed.... And I don't want to root>>>>
Did anyone tried some powefull tool to force the downgrade?
install cyanogenmod

i had the same prb with my s4 i9500 black edition. what i did is that i installed the official releas of android 5.0.1 (that you can find it in XDA forum) with odin than i downgrad it to 4.4.2 and the phone works.
I hope that it will work for you too
Is there a guide available to downgrade the 19505 from Lollipop ( at the moment i am using Official Cyanogenmod 12 5.0.2) to Kitkat ? I miss the features of the Xposed Modules very badly. In my opinion it is a disadvantage to upgrade your phone to Lollipop .

I had this problem as well when I installed Lollipop on my rooted G900F (BTU), I solved it by doing a Factory rest then re-installing the Lillipop rom using Odin and doing the Factory reset again after the second install.
It has been fine ever since

[URGENT!] Possibly bricked phone when downgrading [SM-N910C]

Hi All,
I had Android 4.4.4 (KK) running on my Note 4 (SM-N910C version). A week ago, I decided to upgrade to 5.1.1 (Lollipop) but after using it these days, I decided to go back...
In the past, I have installed 5.0.1 LL on this phone and went back to KK without any problems whatsoever, but this time, when trying to flash KK back on Odin, it ends at "FAIL"...
At the same time, my phone displays "SW. REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 2, BINARY 1" on download mode and I'm afraid it is now bricked because when I try to boot the phone to system, it gets stuck on the main screen (samsung logo and model) and it never boots up...
This is what I did to my phone so far when installing 5.1.1:
1) Flashed 5.1.1 stock firmware from Sammobile.
2) Rooted using talexop Kernel.
My phone has the latest version of TWRP recovery installed and I currently have access to both this and download mode. I need urgent help :crying:, leaving on Holiday in a week and I need my phone functional! I tried googling and searching over the forum, and I saw some stuff but it was not really helpful for my case.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks a bunch in advance,
museruy
your device is ok
just download stock lollipop 5.1.1 from sammobile and reflash it with odin

This is what I'm trying as of right now... Fingers crossed.
Is there any workaround to downgrade to KK safely?

[Q] After upgrade to 6.0.1 of A310F hardware buttons not working

Hey guys,
I upgraded to 6.0.1 stock rom with ODIN. Not the hardware buttons are not responding. I already tried factory reset and wipe cache. No success.
Also downgrading to 5.1.1 doesn't change anything. Buttons not working in latest 5.1.1 ... strange.
Can someone give me an advice?
Thanks!

Hi.. can you tell us, which ROM you used (which region-code) and of which region was your phone before?
maybe this is not the problem, but the more informations you provide, the better.
Yeah. Sure.
I don't know which firmware version I got originally installed on the phone. But first I flashed A310FXXU2BPG6_A310FOJV2BPG2_XSG (6.0.1). There hardware button don't work. So I thought ok, then I flash the latest from my country (DBT).
So I wiped everything and flashed: A310FXXU2APDC_A310FOXA2APD1_DBT.
But still no change. The ROM itself is working fine, except the hardware buttons. I wonder if it is some kernel related problem? But there should be no problem since it is all stock. I even flashed the earliest DBT firmware from samfirmware (A310FXXU1AOL7_A310FOXA1AOL7_DBT) also without success. The hardware buttons stay inactive. Really strange.

Downgrading Samsung Galaxy J5 (Marshmallow to Lollipop)

Ok guys, This has not been just a problem of mine but also every Galaxy J5 users. The marshmallow update has quite a good UI and other stuffs. But in long term use I found this really annoying. And I want to downgrade the firmware. So I downloaded the latest firmware from sammobile.com . Now using odin when I try downgrading, I get the problem
sw rev check fail :[aboot]fused 2>binary 1
The model is:J500H(2015)
Is the downgrade really impossible? I even tried using TWRP but it isn't working either. I eagerly wanna go to lollipop while marshmallow is getting frustating day and again. So guys if you have any solution regarding this please suggest me..

Unfortunately, there isn't any way to downgrade as far as I know. It only happened for J500H and there is a warning thread, but not all people are aware of that...
You gotta blame Crapsung...
