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.

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

About updating sm-j730f/DS from Android 7.0 to Android 8.1 ?

Good evening, I have some questions taking into account that I am not an expert.
Beginning I own a sm-j730f/ds version Android 7.0 rooted by Magisk, 17.1 stock rom for Egypt:
1-Is it possible to update to Android 8.1 stock ROM for UAE
2. Are there any special steps to update or the normal way is enough by Odin
3-Does root with magisk work without twrp method
And thanks in advance.

Ok......

good afternoon friend you can help me .. so I wanted the back-up of j7 pro .70 twrp without root because I was upgrade to version 8.1 and to have several errors and I can not go back to version 7.0 only by backup

My dear friend, I am sorry unfortunately I can not help, because my device contains root magisk plus that TWRP does not work on my device.
Question why you want to return to Android 7.0. Have you encountered a problem with the new update?

Downgrade from glamour rom (android 8.0 Oreo) to another rom (android 7.0 nougat)

Hi, as title says I'm trying to install a rom with android 7.0 (superman rom 2.9) but I can't flash it, actually I'm on glamour rom with android 8.0, what I have to do to correctly install superman rom? Thanks in advance

Should just flash without problem, i flashed Deluxe rom over Glamour without issue, maybe download corrupt?

I've read that I can't downgrade from 8 to 7, or I have to flash a certain bootloader but I only found tutorial for non routers
