Can anyone please tell me if i can downgrade my Samsung galaxy a7(2018) to android oreo after the december update of android Pie...
Bcs i have tried it and ik that if this update the binary of the device have been upgraded...
But I want to downgrade to oreo..

Is there any way i can downgrade to oreo...
I have tried it using the  odin tool and tried to flash the official stock rom..but as i said.. it shows the binary error..
That is, DEVICE:1, BINARY:2(now as in December update it will be binary 3)

So can anyone please tell me...how to downgrade to oreo....
And help me with this phone's binary problem..
Ik that the binary of the phone has been updated to 3 or 2...and the offical stock rom has a binary of 1..
And i cannot flash a rom with different binary code...

But is there any way i downgrade...
Any way or hint possible will be very much appreciated...

you can get helpful articles regarding all developer thing on XDA ,incase you are not able to downgrade it means you are on the most stable version.All you can do is wait for next android version, or do twrp if you are out of warranty

yea...bcs after the andoid pie update...my phone has slowed...
and i really liked the oreo on the performance basis...
And the camera qualty of my phone has degraded after the pie update..

and many a7(2018) users have experienced it...

and ram management is also not that good..as it used to be

benchmark scores...and gaming performance has also been affected...

and batter life too...suffers..

idk but i am facing these problems..and i wish to downgrade it...

actually developer does this type of work,all because they know about their device very well and want to explore something always new and sometimes to do experiment.

bro,software downgrade is a risk factor,sometime your device crashed permanently.

yea..but if all procedures are correct...
and if done with precautions...
then sofware downgrade is not all risky..

i have done it a couple of times..but this tym..


there's this binary problem due to software update of this phone....


btw thnx for the precaution...
