so sorry for bad english:angel:
After a few Nougat updates you won't be able to Downgrade. Why would you go want to go back? Nougat is just better than Marshmallow! with more and easier mods available.

What variant you have? Marshmallow is available only for N920C..As you are already rooted, flashing marshmallow will have deep sleep issue...many guys who have rooted and flashed marshmallow have reverted to Lollipop as there is no root method get for Marshmallow....

I have the SM-N920I. So I should wait until the official marshmallow releases for that version.

Yes you will have to wait until Samsung releases...
Greetings all. Just a quick question....I just got my new S2 Tab (TMobile) and it's on 5.0.x.
I'm reluctant to update it to 5.1.1 if it doesn't need to. From what I've seen so far there are ROM's only for the 9.7" on 5.1.1.
Are we able to roll back to 5.0.x with ease or is it a one way ticket to 5.1.1?
Is there a firmware version to avoid, where it would lock the bootloader to only being able to use 5.1.1 and up from that point on after the flash?
* I'm not a fan of LP to begin with, but am having to live with it like we all are on the Tab S2. The closer to KK the better, for me....as things are getting more and more locked down stripping us from our Android freedom, I'd like to stay as far back on 5.0.x as possible.
I must be able to run xposed, xprivacy and other work apps without issues or doing gymnastics just to get it to work, hence why I want to stay as close to 5.0.x as possible. Even though I may be able to run such apps on 5.1.1 as well.... I'm trying to stay away from 5.1.1 unless there are some doubtful advantages over 5.0.x.
Thanks.
I'd say no real advantage to 5.1.1 if you have a stable 5.0.2.
Rolling back shouldn't be an issue as long you don't flash a revision 2 Firmware.
No reason to be on either now, upgrade to MM 6.0.1 , more responsive all around.

Thanks. I've just got another 9.7" Tab S2 (64GB) and it is on BOJ1 (Released: 8/10/2015)
The ROM's for the 9.7" S2 are for BOH7 (Released: 8/31/2015)
I am wanting to roll back to 5.0.2, however, I actually do not see any ROM's (9.7") for it. I must have confused the 5.0.2 ROM specifically for the 8" S2, being for the 9.7" as well...oops...
Okay so for now it looks like I have to odin (BOH7) to run one of the few 5.1.1 ROM's available for the 9.7" ...
I am downloading the BOH7 firmware from here. This is the right one yes? Also, this is free of revision 2?
Also, how do I make sure to avoid the revision 2 firmwares?
Thanks.
I've been rooted since KitKat (4.4), currently on Lollipop (5.0) and I believe my bootloader is still unlocked. How do I confirm this?
I'd like to upgrade it to Marshmallow 6.0/6.0.1, if that's possible. Any recommended path to the soft goodness of MM?
Of course.
Step 1: Don't

Well now because there are not official builds just yet, the ones uploaded were just test builds that apparently work smoothly but some apps don't work (android pay), if you manage to update and the official build comes out you will have to back up your data and wipe over and over again.
And you will also lose that sweet root permanently.
Is there anyway to downgrade Nougat 7.0 back to Marshmallow 6.0.1?
i also had this question. I've heard odin might work? What's the reason you are trying to downgrade?
Liked Marshmallow and really didn't want to upgrade to Nougat.
Hi guys! Newbie here.
Just want to ask if it is possible to downgrade my tablet that is running on OS 7.0 to Stock rom or on atleast OS 6.0?
The OS 7.0 was updated using OTA and it really drains my battery just want to roll back again on the stock or on the previous version.
Please help.
Thank you so much
Yes -- but it's not for the faint of heart. You can download the stock ROMs (as well as a range of others) from this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s2/general/index-samsung-tab-s2-one-index-t3544310
To flash the stock ROM, you will need to run ODIN on your PC. I would suggest doing a Google search for ODIN and read the many articles on how to use it.
