What MM is ?
I read about it and it's says that I downgrade the same way I update ,that's right?

All files needed to downgrade back to Marshmallow are here: https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/angler-mtc20l-factory-b7864fdb.zip

Sm-a510fd downgrade

hi gays
iwant to downgrade from 6 to 5.1.1 so i flashed an offical 5.1.1 rom with odin but gave an eror and the installation failed
help me how to downgrade
If I'm not mistaken after upgrading to 6.0.1 , you're not able to downgrade it due to Samsung's policy , however I think you can root it and downgrade through custom ROM .

any lollipop custom rom ? i cant find any custom rom
the reason of downgrading to android5 is lagging and working slowly in games with Marshmallow!!!!!
how is lollipop performance? as same as Marshmallow in games??????
I got my A510FD updated to MM since last month and I didn't notice any sluggish performance on MM , however I feel that lollipop is kinda slow ( in loading apps ), maybe you can try factory reset your phone .

Upgrading to LOS from 6.0 Stock?

Hello, will this be possible? I can't upgrade to the stock Nougat firmware because I have unlocked my bootloader which is causing me problems, I can't upgrade with the instructions found here in XDA, and I'm running the latest official Marshmallow build. Thanks!

I had no issues. I'd prefer an earlier Marshmallow build though. Doze mode in Nougat is so messed up that battery life went down a lot!!

Downgrading 7 to 6

Hi guys,
I'm looking for a credible guide to help me downgrade from 7.0 to one version earlier.
I think it was 6.0 ? Or 6.0.1.
I'm experiencing troubles with microphone through Bluetooth and analog, and it started happening only after I updated the version.
The model is XT1642.
Thanks.

Unlock bootloader, root, flash TWRP, flash 6.0.1 custom roms with 6.0.1 Gapps OR modded stock 6.0.1 like LotusRom without Gapps. N bootloader and radio are backward compatible with 6.0.1 ROMs. If u fastboot flash stock 6.0.1 then u can't jump forward to N ROMs without fastboot flash stock N rom again first as M bootloader and radio won't work with N roms

Upgrading to EMUI 5 from a custom EMUI 4 ROM??

Can anybody explain to me or point me in the right direction to upgrade my firmware to EMUI5? I can't figure it out and it's killing me. I'm currently running a melticulus RR install which has recently started playing up so I want to upgrade to a 7.0 ROM and to do that, I apparently need to upgrade my firmware to EMUI5
Thanks
Use firmware finder

Hello,
Yes man you need to do that..
I'm on EliteRom by HassanMirza and as you came from RR MM 6.0.1 whit Meticulus Recovery TWRP-3.0.2.0-hi6250-v4.zip.
So i hope you've done your Dump backup+Nandroid backup as explained as well.
Starting from here u need to follow steps in the Meticulus site in the FAQ section of TWRP download page.
Well done.. now flash the Stock Recovery and let it upgrade..
Enjoy

Can I upgrade to custom ROM with stock j500f Android 5.1.1

Hi I have a stock j500F I put TWRP on it. And it has android 5.1.1
I tried flashing 6.0.1 because it's a requirement for the good custom ROM's. But it failed.
I've also read warnings not to upgrade to 6.0.1 because you can't go back. Why would you want to go back?
