Download the smart switch app on your phone and your computer, then make a backup and install Android 16 One UI 8 beta. After that, connect your phone to PC and downgrade to the previous version of Android 15 One UI 7. But all the data is detected after that.

Rollback Steps (One UI Beta → Stable Android 15)

1. Withdraw from Beta

Open the Samsung Members app on your phone.

Tap Beta program status → Withdraw.
(This removes your phone from the beta program and allows downgrade.)

2. Use Smart Switch on PC

1. Install the latest Samsung Smart Switch on your Windows or Mac PC.


2. Connect your phone with the original USB cable.


3. Open Smart Switch on PC → wait until your phone is detected.


4. Smart Switch will show either:

“Downgrade” button (if beta is detected), OR

Go to More > Emergency Software Recovery & Initialization.



5. Follow on-screen steps → Smart Switch downloads & installs the official stable firmware (Android 15 / One UI 7).



> ⚠️ This process factory resets your phone. All data created during beta is erased. That’s why a backup before installing beta is critical.

3. Restore Your Backup

After rollback & setup, open Smart Switch PC again → click Restore. Select your backup.

If you encrypted the backup, you’ll be asked for the PIN you set.

Wait until restore finishes → your contacts, messages, apps, media, and settings return.

📌 Important Notes

Data loss: You cannot keep beta data after rollback — only what you backed up beforehand.

Accounts required: Keep your Samsung & Google account passwords ready. You’ll need them after reset (FRP protection).

If Smart Switch downgrade fails: You may need to visit a Samsung Service Centre or use Odin (manual flashing) — but Odin is advanced and riskier.
