Just an FYI, as the topic says... IF you update to the latest security patch of July you cannot downgrade your software again on your device.

This is because with the July update, Samsung has updated the fuse versions of Knox. It's a part of Knox's "RP" which stands for "Rollback Prevention".

The RP fuse version number is set when system software is initially installed and when specific updates occur. Once the RP fuse version number is set, it is impossible to revert back to legacy software versions.

He likes attacking me for some reason. But hey, let's not generalize. There are super nice Germans. This guy just has some perception and anger management issues.

He is from Germany (apparently) living in Sri Lanka but his device CSC is South Korea. He never once mentioned it. I saw his screenshot on another post today. If he had said that, I could have checked further whether the fuse change wasn't done for Korea. Simple as that. But no... just had to go on and on.
There was another post he pulled this same stunt but he stopped replying when he realized he was wrong and didn't read the latest replies on that post. 😅

You say I're wrong, but what I said is practically what happens, 100% sure is true no matter what anyone says after the July update that the software can be reduced to Android 10 even after the software update.

As you mentioned my device is a North Korean device and the international device chipset is Exynos so I bought this because of the Snapdragon processor

What I said is true, you can try it in practice, this person understands that what he said is wrong and tries to turn it into a conflict, he does not have the intelligence to understand that the argument is not a conflict

Lol. When did I say here you were wrong though?? I never said it. I said I will check and update the post IF there is a correction to be made. Can you READ??

The post I was referring to in my reply to Kalpa is Niki's post where you were behaving like an idi○t when she already talked with me in the same post and said the issue got resolved.
Plus the only "solution" you are typing on people's posts is to flash firmware.

You are just talking about your device not the rest. The fuse updates just might be regional specific. Without blabbering like a lunatic, go ask your question on ANY Android/Samsung forum.
