Downgrade from Android 8.1.0 to 7.0 on Samsung Galaxy J5 2017 - Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers

I have a Samsung Galaxy J5 2017 SM-J530F and want to downgrade from Android 8.1.0 to 7.0.
I followed all the steps properly but everytime I press start on Odin it always says failed. Are there any solutions which will help me downgrade from 8.1.0 to 7.0?

Is it safe to say by now the 2016 version WON'T get the official Oreo update by Samsung?

Thank you. And for now the only option to install Oreo manually is the LineageOS 15 ROM?

Need help downgrading my S8+ from Android 8.0 to Android 7.0 SG955W (Rogers)

Hi,
So the new firmware update is really bad on the battery and I wanted to rollback for my SG955W. I downloaded the latest 7.0 firmware from sammobile and tried flashing with ODIN but it fails for some reason.
Can someone help me why?

I do not think that is possible. Bootloader on your model was updated to V3 from V2 on Nougat.
Samsung is responsible for doing this. They should be sued!

Download Nougat or Marsh from sammobile and flash t with Odin, more instructions on sammobile.
downgrade only possible with V2 firmware files, don't flash any firmware build before the january 2018 or you will brick your device .

I am new here i dont know what is V2 firmwarefile. Can you explain what is V2 firmware?? Thanks you for advise:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
I mean the bootloader version that is written in the firmware name i.e in G935FXXU2DRAG, 2 is the bootloader version of the firmware after U letter and if you are already on version 2 bootloader, you cannot flash a firmware which has 1 in place of 2..

Ok Thanks you bro!!!!:fingers-crossed::good:
This is useful! I tried to downgrade from 8.0 to 7.0 and bricked my device, luckily I could restore the same version I had before... even SmartSwitch don't give a damn about my device anymore.
If you have bootloader version which says XXS2 then you can't downgrade to Marshmallow and initial Nougat firmwares released till December 2017.
However, if you never upgraded your bootloader to v2 (like me), then you can downgrade to even Marshmallow without any issues. Check my phone screenshot. I am running latest Oreo firmware on v1 bootloader without any issues.

Does anyone have the link of Nougat 7.0 for SM-G935FD with binary 3 code...??? I can only find binary 2 and 1 but not 3 after days of searching on net...The firmware must be (G935FXXU1DQL8_G935FSEB1DQL8_SEB) XXU3, not 1 or 2...
Kindly share...it will be life saving....
Once you upgrade to Oreo, there's no downgrading to Nougat FW without using a custom ROM
