I downgraded to marshmallow from nougat and vibrate broke. Motor beeps (yes, motor, not speaker) when it tries to vibrate. Can this be really software issue? I Flashed stock firmware again with Odin and smart switch.
It seems hardware problem, but strange that it appeared just when I downgraded...
Can't be a hardware problem as I have the exact same problem. I too was running the beta program Nougat and decided to leave. Flashed a BTU rom and now I too have lost vibrate. Just a faint beep coming from the earpiece when I go into vibrate mode. Anyone any ideas on what to do ?
Have you tried nougat again?

Like I said in previous post I had installed the Nougat rom via Odin.. I then plugged the phone into my PC and started the Smart Switch app.. It told me there was a newer version of the OS available (which is actually the current Marshmallow version), and I let it install it, and vibrating still works.. So maybe you could try that.. Seemed to work for me anyway.

Thanks! Worked!
If you downgrade from 7.0 to 6.0 you need to downgrade your BL and CP too not just the rom. Hope it helps.?
Fixed

Temporarily upgrade to Android 7 to fix the vibration issue then use odin to flash final version of android 6.0.1. You must flash all 4 files contained in the extracted (unzipped) firmware package but ignore the home_CSC file. IMPORTANT...tick the option in odin "phone bootloader update". This process will wipe all data on the phone but will give you a fully functioning galaxy s7 with Android 6.0.1 marshmallow!

For me, upgrading back to Nougat didn't fix it. Did you upgrade to Nougat using Odin and the "phone bootloader update" or did you just use the official install method?
dowgrade to Marshmallow today , everythig is working fine except the camera "camera failed" error .. tried all solutions given on internet .. any fix ?
Same Camera not working. PLease help

Hi, I tried to downgrade from android 7 to 6, but after i extract the firmware, it has 8 files, which most of them look like a cd pictures. Not the file that we expected like BL, CP, etc. None of them like those 4 files that they should be. So I can not continue to use odin, because the extractted files is totally different. Any idea what happen?.
Thanks
No vibration s7 edge after downgrade
Hello i downgraded s7 edge from nougat helios custom rom to marashmallow decent ultralite 5.0 custom . Now my vibrator is not working. I tried flash bootloader via odin it says fail . Please help
i found solution for no vibrator after downgrade nougat to marshmallow
i found solution for no vibrator after downgrade nougat to marshmallow
i found solution for no vibrator after downgrade nougat to marshmallow
S7 edge is not vibrating after downgrade nougat to marshmallow, it is because you are using nougat bootloader in Marshmallow, you just have to flash with odin the correct MARSHMALLOW bootloader and CP and the vibrator will work just fine.
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=54002
6 december 2018, i extremely recomend use Decent ultralite 5.0 MARSHMALLOW ROM in samsung S7, it is very fast and stable, S7 is designed for marshmallow.

I guess so as i did tried to reflash stock ROM with Mobile Upgrade Q 5.0.0 a few days ago, but it didn´t work. Then i used Mobile Upgrade Q 5.1.8 but it displayed that i had the latest software so no reflashing at all, i was incapable of reflashing and clearing the \system partition, for me it is a real problem as i was expecting to delete all the traces of SuperSU root, Xposed, etc; with the aim of moving to Magisk and keep passing safetynet. Anyone has any clue so that could help me reflashing latest stock MM ROM?
Use the Panasonic ELUGA to restore an then the Mobile Upgrade .

I was also considering downgrade to LP by performing a restore from my TWRP backup. May be easier and safer, as ELUGA modifies certain branded partitions, I guess... Any inconvenience related to that?
I have never got the mobile upgrade to work, not even this version, and that is a shame because here in Finland we have no OTA since lollipop, and I can not understand how the official MM-rom is nowhere to be found, even if the phone have the option of update from storage. If only I could find the update file, I presumably could update without any rooting or twrp or anything, and keep it factory fresh and under warranty?

I agree with you, that is a bad movement from Alcatel not to give access to ROM zip. It would be so easy to flash it via settings _ apply update from zip, as many devices do. Weeks ago I was desperate to find a stock zip for my 6045Y but no luck. It's a shame to let dye this music lover smartphone.
I have the stock MM rom if anybody wants it.

The roms are from murigny64, he made them. He has a thread here which I checked earlier. If you want the version without root the link is still good, only the rooted version was removed.

Thanks for the quick reply, i did a search and found the tread https://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/6045y-mm-6-0-1-firmware-european-idol3-t3435577 However, i have a more recient MM Stock ROMs with many fixes (in the version of this URL 2016/08/10 the MM ROMs has a bug that unables the phone to record call, am i wrong?).
I'm not sure what to do and even can´t update from the latest MM from a couple of days ago, https://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/help/ota-android-update-malware-t3736229 As Mobile Upgrade Q says that my 6045Y has the latest software, may be an update to only 6045I model?

I don't know about the record call thing, I don't use it.
As for the second part I'm not sure I understand. You want the latest OTA update or you already have it

Sorry, i didn't explain myself properly. I mean, I have already the latest MM stock ROM dated from january of 2017, my device is a 6045Y. However, a few days ago there has been released an update, but my guess is that only for 6045I devices, so i don't have it and can´t reflash my Idol 3 with the same ROM i currently have.
PS:
I tried to flash via TWRP this zip https://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/6045y-mm-6-0-1-firmware-european-idol3-t3435577 and then use the Mobile Upgrade Q to get the latest MM stock, but Mobile Upgrade Q keeps saying "you have already the latest update" which this statement is not true after flashing this zip. Finally, I restored my TWRP backup so i'm in the same state as i began this morning, i'm tired of this policy of Alcatel that there is no official zip from stock firmwares, the only way is using an online tool thar refuses to reflash the same firmware.
I am from india, using 6045k, lost duel sim support due to flashing of marionette's Rom. Still trying to get duel sim back, tried eluga firmware also, but unfortunately i didn't get any error at 45%. Now i am using flyos 2.0, its working like charm. But only one sim is there, i tried several software upgrader versions, but server is not connecting, its always stuck at 20%.
Its been a year that i am trying to get to stock rom. I have done search in several threads and contacted some senior members but it didn't help,
Pls help me, how can i get back to stock rom and get duel sim Support back??

Hi all,
I’d would really appreciate some comments or suggestions on how to solve following problem.
I bought an Essential phone on ebay this week (Sprint “unlocked”), and it came with Android 9 Pie. I initially put a simcard from an operator here in my country and it worked fine.
Due to work reasons I need the phone to be rooted with Android 7.1.1 Nougat (compatibility issue with a software used for testing celullar networks), so as a first step I flashed one of the Nougat images available in Essential’s website. This wasn’t a problem since I had already done this procedure with other Essential phones.
After successfully flashing Nougat, when I inserted back the simcard the phone did not recognize it. I upgraded back to 9.0, and the simcard was working again. The same happened when I downgraded to Oreo for testing.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how could I proceed to solve this issue? I really need it to run Nougat.
Thank you in advance for your feedback!
Make sure you unlocked the critical partitions, that's needed for the full image to flash and produce a fully functioning device, else there may be incompatibilities in the radio/modem/hardware/bootloader.

You need to do a full wipe of the data when going backwards.
There is some setting hanging around that is not compatible.
I have seen this also
My phone shows that it's switched off during incoming calls even though it's on. I am having a lot of problems because of this. I'm sure it's not sim issue and my friend (also mi A1 user) is having the same issue. anyone please help me. Thanks in advance
I have the same issue since the first update to PIE and there is no fix for that. I'm going to kick the phone, it's completely useless right now with this bug.
download and install the latest fastboot rom available
then the issue will go
I have had this problem since January, and I still could not find the solution, I tried to do everything and I could not solve it ...

Yes
i bought this phone for a friend who has all the latest updates and is facing this issue. She is missing important calls.
What is the best solution? Bear in mind I will have to help her remotely and this could be difficult if I am to guide her through flashing a custom rom.
