I need to root me S& active and it does not look like 7.0 will be able to be rooted anytime soon.... so is there anyway I can revert back to 6.0.1 my phone is new and has 7.0 on it (just purchased 2 weeks ago) So I am assuming I need to flash the whole PK2 firmware... does anyone know where a link is to the full download to it?
How do I downgrade From 7.0 to 6.0.1??
- Thread starter Acinko
- Start date
Edit, heres the mirror to get from 7.0 back to 6.0.1
Confirmed working, and was able to switch from 7.0 back to 6.0.1 then back to 7.0 and then back to 6.0.1
Found this one G891AUCS2API2_CL8737252_QB10881022_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.rar here

Anyone no a better mirror for a stock 6.0.1 firmware flash?

Has anyone found the 6.0.1 firmware for this phone? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
I also really need this firmware as i'm bricked, Every link I can find has failed me. It seems to have either expired or been removed.
New to the Active and wanting to downgrade to root.
Firmware is QE1. Is it possible to downgrade using ODIN?

Do you know if it will brick if I downgrade the firmware? Its on Nougat and dont want to risk having a paper weight.
I'm currently testing this one. Got S7 Active on 7.0 trying to downgrade to 6.0.1 to root. Link I have posted above was pointing to 6.0.1 firmware. First attempt to downgrade failed so far. S7 Active survived so far.
I'll be testing further after work.

Hi. I'm back. Took me a while, like 3 hours to get this one right, but I have managed to root S7 Active on Android 7.0 by following guide from the Russian site. I'd help if anyone is willing to root on 7.0

i had already put up tutorial, and links for Root on 7 here...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-active/development/rom-mod-release-t3635879
also a nice script to debloat, and add s8 mods too ...
(its also where your QD4 odin file originated, look in the root of the rar file
)
