Need help with downgrading to One UI 2.5 - Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Questions & Answers

Cheers. I'll try to be specific. I have absolute minimum experience in this kinda stuff. Just today my tablet received an update which I readily installed only to regret it later (I liked One UI 2.5 better), and so I went to search for info on how I can downgrade it. The guide I came across first and which I used was this one. Older firmware version was downloaded off of sammobile, here's the link to the specific version. Now, one thing I wasn't completely sure about was CSC. I bought this tablet from a guy who used it as a temporary TV replacement, and I'm almost sure it was initially purchased here in Ukraine, too, but there's still a slight possibility that the CSC was different.
Anyways, in the archive with the firmware I found 4 files: AP, BL, CSC and HOME_CSC. Using Odin3 v3.13.3 and the three files (AP, BL and HOME_CSC) I attempted to downgrade the device. It all went well, no errors during the process, but the tablet won't boot now. Here's the screen that I'm getting:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I still can get it into Download Mode tho. Later I tried to do the exact same thing, but with disabled Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time options, but it didn't do much.
What can I do at this point to bring it back into a working state? I don't have all that much data on it as I've got it relatively recently, but there's still some stuff, so if possible I'd rather not reset it completely unless absolutely necessary. Any help is highly appreciated!

Quick update. I attempted flashing it with a differens region firmware, still no luck. Tried to reboot to bootloader, but it's getting stuck on "Entering fastboot..."

Flashed it again, but with the recent update downloaded with Frija. It did boot alright with all of my data still there, so at this point the problem is in finding a working way to downgrade it without running into the same issue again. Any recommendations?

Sorry I can't help. When you are out of emergency mode, please tell us what is wrong with the current update to UI 3.0 and Android 11. I received the update notification, but haven't updated yet. I'm always suspicious of major version upgrades without any minor number. The Samsung blurb is here: https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-P610/XSA/doc.html

There are many cosmetical changes that I don't approve of:
- App drawer now has a light gray blurred background while 2.5 only blurred the wallpapers and made them a little darker. Same applies to the menu that you drag down from above
- Notification and settings boxes corners have became more rounded
- 2.5 music player had no background and only added buttons on top of the locked screen on the side, which made it look very slick. New music player now looks like a notification box and is positioned in the middle
- Unlock screen now has 2 additional arrows and a lock icon at the top as opposed to 2.5 look where there only were 9 dots to draw the pattern on
- Volume change is now displayed to the right side and looks like a termometer bar filling from bottom to top instead of a blue slider that was popping up from above
All of these visual changes were completely unnecessary and no user was given a choice in case they preferred old looks to new one. Also, despite permormance improvement being noted, I personally have noticed none as, honestly speaking, my device already was working fast enough.
Here are some picks that show what changed in my case:
Unlock screen
App drawer/upper menu background change
Music player change

Thanks for your answer. Any functiona issue ? Did anything stop working ? The cosmetic issues you mentioned don't quite affect me, except the round corners. If Samsung releases a minor version update above basic Android 11 UI3 then I will apply the update.

When you downgrade to an earlier android version, you have to factory reset. That's what I normally do to get it to boot, which I also did in this case. This first iteration is garbage. Scrolling lag, crap dolby atmos and a couple of older apps not displaying properly. Same thing with my s9 when upgraded to android 10.
My advice is not to upgrade to a newer android version for a couple of months until samsung gets it right.

[THE] Black Kandi [WA3]

Here we have Black Kandi for VGA Devices Portrait and Landscape supported. I have included both 'VOLUME' and 'LOUD' buttons in both states, use whichever you prefer.
I have also included alternate taskbars as it was mentioned over at the lakeridge forums that some people may prefer a solid blue line on the taskbar.
When in portrait, you will probably need to disable the clock because if you have more than 4 icons showing the clock goes over the top of the start button. Works fine in landscape though. This is my first full WA3 theme so lots of feedback would be much appreciated.
Couple of screenshots:

Thanks to Wez89 for adding sounds to my theme, there are 2 versions available. With or without sound.
Green Version now added, comes with alternate taskbars/softkeys etc.
It's really awesome!Thank you!
+1
CONGRATULATIONS : great work and very nice skin, i love it !
I have 2 requests :
Is it possible for you to make the same with red lines instead of blue ?
At the bottom the blue line is cut in the middle : could you make a unique line from left to right ?
Thanks a lot,
Bottom bars now available in 1st post, both portrait and landscape.
as for the other colours i'm currently working on:
GREEN (To match standard TF3D), ORANGE, RED, YELLOW, and PINK!
Looks really nice from the pics. what is WA3 though? & how to install this?
woow looks very nice!! but what is wa3?
Wisbar Advance 3: Click here
Yes I find it looks better now with the full line.
So, i'll wait for the new colors,
THANKS for your answer !
Green version now added
Pretty amazing. Thanks
this ia a awesome theme
EDIT: My apologies, I've figured out the issue with installing it - for others who are curious, download the WA3 cab file and install it, download the theme, extract it and copy it to your phone. With WA3 running, click on the menu button and go to settings. Once there click themes > wisbar theme. In the lower pane select "Install" from the menu items. Navigate to the folder with the theme - the WA3 file should be shown in the list (BlackKandi), click this and press "OK" in the top corner.
EDIT 2: OK I have finally found my way around WA3 however there is an annoying little issue I'm having with the top panel icons. They align perfectly fine except for a slightly bigger gap between the Start icon and the following icon. This causes the display to look slightly off. I'm a bit of a perfectionist I kinda notice it like its a huge gap! Also this causes the final two icons to be too close together.
Another thing I have noticed is the "Connected" icon - when connected its fine however when I remove my usb connection - it displays the silly icon instead of Itext which is not very eye pleasing (this may be because i don't use 3g or gprs connections). However I don't particularly need this icon so if the gap is fixed then I'd be happy enough as I think the them is fantastic.
yeah thats how it is supposed to be used, well thats how it was intended lol
go to wisbar settings>taskbar then select 'clock' and make sure the checkbox isnt ticked
then select 'window title' make sure the checkbox isnt ticked
i like the theme a lot but i dislike wa3 to be honest
what are your reasons for disliking wa3?

please could i see a screenshot? i'm not sure what you mean. as for the not connected icon, there is a setting to display nothing when disconnected. you need to apply this setting. when making the icons the word 'disconnected' was too long to fit on a button and didn't look right. then when i thought about it, i realised i didnt use it anyway lol. hope this helps
Ok i finally corrected all the issues - a simple case of uninstalling everything and reinstalling. I installed the Blue theme this time with the sound files, for a change lol. All is perfectly fine now - now bigger gaps and nothings is too close together.
I love the theme, its great. It works really well with the TF3D and is a good change from the rather cluncky default windows task bar. Obviously the core windows functions are still present (and looking terrible) but i guess this is something they will fix with windows mobile 7. Or atleast thats what i believe ... its microsoft after all ...
yeah its a shame, i'd skin everything if i could lol. glad you like it. it took me a while to make it but i'm more than happy with the outcome
Apologies for not saying thanks in my previous post as this certainly deserves it. It's definatly an ace theme, one i'm sure many people will like. Well Done!
wonderful.great.Would you also please made one in red syle?

Notification drawer will not drag down

BTW, this is on stock 4.2.2 on a D801 with no root.
I had been having a problem where my notification drawer would not pull down. At first, it wouldn't pull down at all. Then it would only pull down when I pulled from the very far left side of the notification bar. Then it would work if I was on the left half of the notification bar. Then only the left 25%. I tried rebooting several times, no luck. I switched to the marshmallow theme and all of a sudden it started working. I switched back to the standard theme, and it went back to the broken behavior.
I searched and searched and didn't find anyone else with these exact symptoms. I thought I'd have to factory reset to get this working again.
Fortunately, I was able to resolve the problem. Open system settings/general/apps, select the all apps tab, and scroll down to Home. Select it, and press the clear cache button. Now my notification bar can be pulled down from anywhere across the top of the screen.
I'm posting here in case anyone else ever runs into this problem in the future. I'm not sure what caused it. The touchscreen on that part of the screen was definitely working, because if I pulled down the drawer from the left side, then dragged my thumb down, right, and up, the screen was definitely responding to my finger moving around the very top of the screen on the right side. Something was causing the display not to pull down the notification drawer when I started from the right side.
I just started having this problem on my LG G2 (Resurrection Remix LPv.5.4.6). At first I could drag down just by pulling from the top of the screen. Then, over time, it started to only work in the upper left corner. Now I can't pull the quick-settings area down in Portrait mode. It does work in Landscape view. It also works on the lock screen in Portrait mode: just drag down from the top-middle of the screen and the quick-setting area comes down.
I enabled the show touch feature in developers options and took these pictures showing that (A) the status/notification area is: (A) not receiving input in Portrait mode during normal use; and (B) is receiving input in Portrait mode on the lockscreen.

I am using the Nova launcher, but I tried Trebuchet, Google, and KK -- none fixed it. I also tried to remove my wallpaper.
The suggestion in the first post does not work as there is no "Home" in Settings>General>Apps>All Apps:

UPDATE: I did a factory reset and reinstalled my ROM. The problem persists. It is definitely NOT the hardware sensors, because that section of the screen DOES WORK on the lock screen.
My best guess right now is that it is something in the stock Gapps (I used micro). I had thought that it might be the Nova Launcher, but I tried other launchers and the problem remained.
Also, this issue seems to creep up around the internet, independent of the phone (see here, here, here, and here).
I am hoping a developer on these pages sees this and can deduce from the symptoms what is causing the status bar (i.e., that top 1/4 inch of the screen) to not receive any input. It seems like something (wallpaper?; launcher?; status bar modification?) is causing the input to not compute.
Please . . . help.....
This problem just hit me too. XPeria T, CM12, also used "show touch" option and it stops respondingon identical part as yours.
I've read somewhere the problem was fixed by installing brand new digitizer, even though I have no intention of replacing it as the phone itself is ****ty...
This is my third or fourth disappointment in android devices and also my last. I'm moving back to button phones as I'm not expecting iPhones to be even near androids.
It was fun using CM12 while it lasted though...
Also, let me bring your attention to one things please:
You said your drawer can be pulled while in the lock screen, but while in the lock screen, my notification drawer can actually be pulled from anywhere on the screen, all I have to do is double swipe down. So I think your digitizer is damaged aswell, but the lock screen function probably fooled you.
I don't have enough the home app on the rom I'm running so that fix won't work. Had anyone found a fix for this?

Pixel Android O Beta released!

Anyone trying it?
Beta 1 also known as DP2.
https://www.google.com/android/beta
Taking the plunge right now. I'll report later.
anyone else try it yet? I am assuming it is daily driver ready like N beta was
I am also waiting to see what people are reporting, hoping it's stable. Since I am on a custom rom it's a bit of a pain to load, don't see factory images yet.
I was thinking about trying this Android O beta out. I have a Verizon Pixel running stock (the bootloader is unlocked though). Should I have any issues?
Also, I know if I opt out of the beta, I'll lose all user data but will I lose user data when opting in and upgrading the Android O?

Unlocked bootloader is not a problem, in fact its better to have the option if anything goes wrong.
If you switch to official O when it's out no wipe required. Only if you want to go back to N.
I too am waiting for reports before i put it on my daily. i will be throwing it onto my nexus 6p tonight thought to try it out. if i dont see any bugs that are too bad... i may throw it on the pixel
Really eager to hear about battery life impact here if anyone can provide feedback.
Can anyone give some basic info about stability? I'd love to jump on with my Daily Driver, just if it isn't ready for it, I'll wait. Thanks in advance!
took forever to install(half hourish).900 mb
everything works so far without a wipe coming from the latest verizon 7.1.2 build.
confirmed tested on my part
camera
android wear connects
fingerprint unlock(seems faster)
foxfi usb tether fosho
overall seems buttery and the pulldown menu is surely nicer with being able to hit settings button without a reach is really nice. i couldnt get picture in picture to go but i didnt dive into the menus too far yet. so far so good. i think it's safe.
Factory images and OTAs for ODP2.
Release notes and detailed description.

Tim from droidlife had pip working but janky https://twitter.com/Timotato/status/864945689498861568

It's a nice beta so far. One thing noticed is double tap to check turn on the black screen but tapping the screen or notification icons won't do nothing and theme option won't switch to Pixel theme, even selecting it. Notification dots is a very good implementation for handling notification in a easily way. Ending my words, another great thing is that now night light have a intensity slider.
Any one has magisk or any root method working on this
Tried to update from latest Android N, didn't boot up, got a data corrupted message during install...
Can I now flash the Android O Factory Image without -w to get it running?
and most people in that tweeter feed can't get it to go either. every time i longpress home it launches assistant. and the setting to allow pip for youtube chrome and google play services are on by default.

Probably, doesn't hurt to try flashing ODP2 factory image without -w.

Is your notification shade stuck on the inverted theme and in device theme there is Pixel and some android_auto_generated_rro_ theme?

Tryimg to disable fullscreen apps

While I'm glad that Samsung has decided by themselves that my games need to run in fullscreen, I have text and buttons scrolling off the screen I can barely get to, or can't read at all because of this. How do I disable this and get my games back? When I go into the display settings, the apps are greyed out and do not give me an option to shut this off.

Hey there,
Another way to disable fullscreen is to press the all apps button in the nav bar and then that small black button you can see in the screenshot. That disable fullscreen for me. But keep in mind that there are apps that automatically change to fullscreen because they are optimized for that.
Hppe that helped you out.
Which games do you mean especially?
Then i could try it myself

Sorry, I tried to attach a screenshot last night and I don't know why it didn't work. I shall try again here, but when I choose the All Apps sort, I have no black button anywhere except the bottom left of the screen which hides the navigation bar from the settings screen, but does nothing for my games. Also, yes, as you mentioned, this is one of those games that Samsung wants to say is "optimized" and disables the option for me to turn it off. Been playing this game for about a year(?) and this did not happen until about a week ago. WWE Champions is the name. You can see the titles in each section being cropped off and you kind of make out a button to the right of "Expedition", or "Xpedition" on my screen that is almost completely hidden.

Ok i have the same pronlem with the game.
I forgot to attach the screenshot in my first response.
I'll attach it now that you know what i actually meant.
You could try to contact the support and tell them the game is not correvtly sized.
If you are rooted you can try to edit your screen resolution so that the game could(don't know if that would even works)
Sorry i couldn't help more
I appreciate the help, but, yeah, I have had complaints about Samsung's Game Tools ever since I've owned this phone and this will likely be my last Samsung phone if I can help it. Was so much happier with my old Nexus 6P stock Android.
Hey, I have the exact same problem.
I've updated to Android 9 with my S9+ Yesterday and then I found out that the WWE SuperCard game is stretched because of this problem. The system thinks it's optimized for the screen but it isn't.
Is there any solution for this problem?
Android 9 sucks! Trash ! Rubbish !
Prefer 8.1 Oreo
I think it primarily turned out to be a developer issue. Their code was causing it to look bad until they patched it. I gave up on the game eventually, but I also ditched my S8+. Went with the Pixel 3 XL and couldn't be happier.
So, did it get solved??
I have the same problem with WOT Blitz. I cannot play the game anymore. Since updating to Android 9, the system says the game is optimised for full screen, which it is not, so I cannot see the entire screen and buttons moved to the side. Did anyone find a solution in the end?
Like I just mentioned before, it's very likely a developer issue versus the phone. They will likely have to release a patch, but I just got tired of dealing with it. Have had zero problems with the Pixel 3 XL and never going back to Samsung.
Yes!!! Away with spamsung from the earth!!!
Spammy should be banne, ssued and shut down by now!!!

Did anyone else's OTA/update screen change?

I know this wasn't due to the OOS11 upgrade because I'm pretty sure until a few weeks ago, the upgrade screen looked just like it did in OOS10. But now it looks like this. The upgrade to 11.0.1.3 went fine as usual after restoring stock boot image, but there wasn't even a changelog or any info displayed at all (such as size of update). Just the button in the bottom right corner that said "Update" , then progress bar at top like normal, then the button changed to "Restart", again with no other info on the screen. Just to be clear, it changed to this b4 upgrading to 11.0.1.3 and I'm 99% sure it wasn't originally like this on 11.0.1.2 (the first OOS11 version)
It's as if Google pushed an update to make the screen look like the Pixels, but OnePlus isn't ready for it. You can note the screen also isn't themed dark, like it was before, and like the rest of settings screens with dark mode on. At least it still works, but I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to be like this.
Is anyone else seeing this?

Updated mine this am, no change in screen before or after upgrade.
I just realized something. @vrman or anyone, did anyone else get a notification from Play Services about a week before 11.0.1.3 (so 2 weeks ago max) or anytime since then advertising "new features" (none of which are new at all, the newest being the "new" editing features in GPhotos). I noticed the same pop-up on my backup phone, a Moto G7 power, running latest (from February) Android 10 completely stock, earlier today. However the G7 still has the Motorola customized/tweaked OTA/update screen.
If you did get the notification about so called new features, does your OTA screen look messed up like mine or normal like @vrman ?
Thanks very much!!

You can note the screen also isn't themed dark, like it was before, and like the rest of settings screens with dark mode on. At least it still works, but I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to be like this.
Is anyone else seeing this?

At least it's not just me
Update: Checked the system update screen and it's back to how it's supposed to be. Didn't change a single thing. Must have been some incorrect push to some HD1925s, but seems to be resolved now.
