Samsung S10 G973W Android 11 Sensor problems

Hello guys, I have a Samsung S10 G973W which was updated back in January with Android 11, compilation G973WOYV4FUA2. This update granted me the Android 11 benefits but censors started failing frequently not allowing normal working for 2 days before failing again. Once I reset it the device started working normally and expected to resolve these issues with the next update but unfortunately nothing happened. Using Samsung members to ask for help only got me useless recommendations. I went back to Android 10, compilation G973WOYV4ETK1
and the device started work normally for several weeks with no censors problems. Recently the updated G973WOYV5GUBG

went out and I realized that is "5" GUBG instead of "4" ETK1 as the one I'm using now. I'm not sure about to go from G973WOYV5GUBG to G973WOYV4ETK1 if the censors issues and Android 11 cannot be fixed. I'll be thankful if get confirmation about the ability to roll back from "5GUBG" to "4ETK1" version if needed.

Re: I need to know if I can roll back

Sometimes you can and can't go back to last bootloader but you would have to try with Odin

I moved this from the Galaxy S forum (for the original ancient Galaxy S phone) to the S10 forum.
 
Re: I need to know if I can roll back

and I do not run the risk of damaging the device by being of different bits?
No as long as you use official samsung firmwares , if you have a lower bootloader only thing will happen is Odin won't allow u to flash it

I'm really dying to update, I'm just afraid that the problems with the sensors will return, mainly the automatic brightness and the proximity, those problems are very annoying and I can't go back I would hate my device and at the moment I can't buy a new one.
