[Q] G925I - os 5.0.2 how to know if firmware downgradable

[RichaJune]

Hi All,

How to know if firmware can be downgraded or not. For example if am on firmware/Baseband G925IDVU1BOE3; is there a way to know if it can be downgradable to "G925IDVU1AOD1" or "G925IDVU1AOE2" before hand.

FYI: I downgraded from G925IDVU1BOE3 to G925IDVU1AOE2 only after doing it practically via odin. So the question is: Is there a way to know if we can downgrade firmware without doing it practically. I asked this question in other post and people are not much aware of it. So thought of starting a new thread.

Also how to know that we can't downgrade from 5.1.1 to 5.0.2?

Thanks ,
Richa

Hi,
The downgrade patch/exploit is fixed in 5.1.1 and there is no way to downgrade it. (As I read in few posts including Ping Pong root OP). If u are in 5.0.2 then u can downgrade to any firmware within 5.0.2.
