Either way you're going to lose root.
Don't hold me to it, but I think if you flash Jasmine ROM version 4.0 it'll have the 5.1.1 firmware.

[Help] Install twrp in Galaxy s5 sm-g900v 6.0.1

Hey there I just got a new samsung galaxy s5, and I have been searching on the internet since yesterday, and haven't been able to find a thread that gives me information about installing custom recovery or installing a rom based in stock without any bloatware.
My phone is the samsung galaxy s5 sm-g900v (not rooted, i haven't been able to do it, maybe it's not posible yet )
android 6.0.1
kernel version 3.4.0
So my questions are:
Can I flash the twrp.tar file with odin?
Is there anyway to install a rom based in the stock of samsung but without bloatware?
And finally, can I root android 6.0.1 in my verizon s5?
Thanks in advance
you have alot to learn my friend.. if you are on 6.0.1 i dont think you can downgrade. you need to be on a 5.0 and then root then if you have a samsung board you can unlock the boot loader to install TWRP if its a toshiba you cant..

I just got the s5, but i get rid of it,im back on my old lg g2, seems it was imposible to install a clean rom on that device.
6.0.1 is downgradable. If you had a 15 chip then you could get TWRP. Even if you had an 11 chip you could still flash a debloated rom on Lolipop.

I've searched but I'm lost on where and how to downgrade 6.01? Is it just flashing over a 5.0 ? or is there more to it because it's new? And where can you find a guide for rooting 6.01 or downgrading it and then rooting?

I already gave the phone to my gf, but what would happen if I try to flash a stock based debloated rom with my pc? I mean flashing the debloated version of 6.0.1?

Flash a G900V 5.0 Lollipop Odin TAR. If you have a CID 11 chip then you can either:
- Downgrade to lollipop and stay rooted their.
- Stay / upgrade to marshmallow but not have root.

you can downgrade from marshmellow to lolipop however you cannot downgrade to kitkat due to the fact that the bootloader is different
I advise you DO NOT make move to unlock bootloader on locked device.Like install 900f roms 900f kernels. Because i tried this **** and my s5 is turned to trash. Do not try belive me.

Why are you advising those with a locked bootloader not to unlock it? If you have the right emmc, there are like 4 different methods to do it. It's simple!

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 .

Hi guys, i absolutely need to downgrade my Oreo 8.0 to Marshmallow 6.0, but i cant simply flash it with Odin becouse of that damn bootloader, there's a way to downgrade the bootloader?

S7EDGE - downgrade from oreo to nougat

Hi
It's possible to downgrade my s7edge from oreo to nougat?
Flashing BL from nougat doesn't work cuz says fail so...

Because your firmwire its binary u3, and that is impossible to downgrade from oreo to nougat.
