Go back to mm

[sweetypie31]

Can anyone point me in the direction to instructions on going back to mm for my att edge ? I've tried nougat and now I can go back to mm until att releases the official one. Any help would be appreciated. Now If I just decide to keep this nougat version that I have will it prevent me from getting any updated otas from ATT ? Id rather keep it since I'm not having any issues, but if it prevents me from getting updates I'd rather try to go back to mm now.

Here's what I've found out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SX0JdfavmM

Otherwise try xda-developers.com they have it for almost all devices

does it matter that the nougat I have is not the beta?

If it's the final, it may update the baseband and that may prevent you being able to downgrade.

Idk if it's final. I side loaded it from XDA

How could you go back?

How could you go back?

If the phone is still on the beta, your can download the MM firmware and use Odin to install it or use smart switch but that's a bit more difficult to figure out how to do.

Another option would be to look at the firmwares from sammmobile.com but be aware these are the carrier versions so you might get the usual bloatware with it

I'm just going to see how it goes from using the video. I've already downloaded all the files. I just need to do a backup. If that doesn't work then I'll just be stuck I guess.

Come here and ask for help if you need it.

Why do you want to go back?

Why do you want to go back?

I read that the side loaded version of nougat that I have will prevent me from getting my OTA releases from att.

Ok, now that I can look at the app Smart Switch, you can restore to MM using Smart Switch by clicking on the Smart Switch at the top of the screen to bring down a menu. Click on Emergency Software Recovery. You might have to enter your phones serial number. It will download the MM image and then install it. The phone will also have to be in download mode but it tells you how to do that as well. The restore kept failing on my 2015 MacBook Pro and on my Surface Pro 3. I finally got it to complete on my 2013 MacBook Pro. For some reason the software can be picky.

Rukbat did an updated guide on how to use Odin: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...rom-via-odin-new-interface-3.html#post5624714

Well somehow I messed up and now my phone is stuck on a error screen. Nexusgirl I did try the smart switch way and it wouldn't . I tried several times using different YouTube videos and I keep getting fail through Odin. I should have just left it alone. Smh

 

[sweetypie31]

this is where I'm stuck at.

 

[sweetypie31]

Going to see if I can get Smart switch on my laptop.

Phone is still stuck. Oh well I'm glad I still have my note 5 as a backup until I figure out what to do. Lol

I just meant after you've had nougat how could you go back?? I know the logistics of going back lol
