AC Question
I bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 from eBay. It worked fine when I received it, but then when I upgraded it to android 5.1.1 (after several updates) I noticed the two touch buttons on the bottom stopped working (the back and recent apps buttons).
I have looked for solutions on google and other forums, and it seems like its a know issue. If I downgrade will this actually solve this? I think it was version 4 when I received it.
Another question, if this downgrade will work, can I use a different model number for the firmware? The phone I got is a model SM-G900T, which I have noticed is a T Mobile US version. Would I be able to download a EE UK (SM-G901F) version so it is more suited to me as I am with EE in the UK.
I was going to just try it, but I was told by someone that this could permanently damage my phone. Is this true, if it does fail could I not just recover it using Samsung Kies?
Your help will be very appreciated.
