Yes
If you have somekind of problems with that phone then you should perform factory reset if that helps.

More info please. What kernel, what ROM, what root did you use? I'm nice, but some people on this forum would eat you alive for leaving a post like this.
I'm sorry amigo - I know very little about phones - new to this world. I'm pretty good with computers though. I learn fast.
It's Kernel version 2.6.29
build number SPH-D700 ECLAIR.DI18.
Firmware: 2.1-update1
I used one.click.root.exploitv2.2.4 to root the phone. I haven't installed any other ROMS (Is there a place on the phone or within Rom Manager where it displays which exact ROM I am running?).

You're already on DI18, no need to update.
The build number shows you the ROM you're running
Ah great. Thank you.

A5 - Is it getting 5.1.1 ?

I might be getting this phone, so when i get it, i don't want to be stuck on 5.0.2 forever, so i'm asking if the support is dead for this phone or will they keep updating this phone ? I'm trying to find the official stock rom 5.1.1 for this device and it seems it's not bound to happen? Please answer
maybe upgrade to Android 6.0 but nothing official.
as far as I know we are scheduled to get 6.0 sometime....
*******

I believe i read somewhere on here that you can only flash the same bootloader version as 8.0 is version 2 so the only one you can downgrade to is one with bootloader version 2 and that is 7.0 i understand. Correct me if i am wrong though,

Correct.
Find 7.0 Firmware that is at least March 2018 or newer (Binary 2 Rom) to downgrade from 8.0 Oreo

Just download the firmware for 6.0.1 and flash it in odin, I've done it several times and it works very nicely.
I'm surprised they would allow 6.0.1 firmware to flash what model is your phone sm-g935f and was it on 8.0?
BL code drops to 6.0 without code but network goes

yes only the latest 7.0 firmware
Hello,
I downgraded to 6.0 but phone is now stuck in boot loop and i'm unable to access recovery mode.
I'm only able to access download mode.
Please how can i resolve this problem?
Hey guys, who knows do we have option like — flash fw with older bootloaders and then do isolated new bootloader flash to make older fw work?
Something like that, because i "heard" similar tricks in internet, like people are flashing modem and bootloader bins separately after downgrade flashing like from android 8 to 6. But didn't find proper instructions on that.
Is it possible? Is there instruction out there?
Yeah, oreo is better than nougat and yeah yeah new features, new updates blablabla. I just believe that every device is always better with its first software - we all saw and know how Apple does, i dont think that other companies dont do something like this...after masscopy of notches personally i dont have any doubts...why you think samsung "upgrades" this bootloader sh*t? It's the same thing like it was with iphone 4s - no downgrade option, and "upgraded" version of fw forcedly reduced the work of processor and other performances - you forced to BUY new one. Same politics in Samsung.
Well, for me marshmallow is better than all others in using S7 - it's faster and bugfree than nougat or oreo, yes it's oldy and even some basic performance features not exist, but still android 6 is the best for S7. I used custom roms but they are really buggy, badly buggy, definitely not a choice for everyday using. Oh i missed the days with nexus phones...not pixels.

T510 never shipped with 8.0
You may be able to get it to work if you build aosp version 8 good luck if you try that.

This is the correct link for the T510 https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-tab-a-101/firmware/SM-T510/XAR/ but they are all version 9. I've check what I've downloaded and can't find an 8 version. I don't think there is one. Sorry.
edit: I check the UK versions and found one from March 2019 and it was still Android 9, so it looks like there was never a 8 version.

Hello everyone,
I am using an Android head unit which I purchased from China. I unfortunately lost the contact details of the dealer i bought it from. The Android version installed on it is version 5.1.1 which is basically useless as I cannot install any apps. I am wondering if any of you has had experience in this headunit. I am attaching a screen shot of the system.
Thank you
OS: Android 5.1.1 (fake), actually Android 4.4.2
