[SOLVED] Downgrade GAS6DEUC to 1014

[johnhawk]

I have GAS6DEUC 1015.2 and want to downgrade to 1014. In the file mtd_rwarea / RVersion.1 is the value:
SWU_T-GAS6DEUC_001015_I04_EK000DK000KK000RK000_111216

To what value do I have to change this, to have the possibility to "upgrade" to 1014?

Is there a FW earlier than 1014? If yes, could someone pls. post his RVersion.1, or it's value?

Or am I completely wrong with my idea?

Its for c series and don't work for D series.

[johnhawk]

sry, I changed my last post..

[juusso]

Replacing of Version* or RVersion* does not help to downgrade. Use our dns, reboot tv and check for online update. After installing of firmware set back to your regular dns and dissable otn in service menu.

Thx. for the quick answer. But, is this: viewtopic.php?p=30027#p30027 for D-Series too? That would be pretty cool.

Oh, I was a bit too quick with my answer. This is the IP for develop-user on D-Series TV. I tried it in well known usage. And now, I have no more SamyGO and no FTP-Access. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! Instead of that, I have a new User-App named "Broken TV". What do I have to do with it, to downgrade my TV? How can I get my FTP-Access back? Pls. explain. Before I used your Tip, I had FTP-Access - and now it's gone!!!

so try again (GAS6) firm was not online so i guess you tv gave you some error message.
important following stepps:

1. set dns (depends on you network settings on tv or/and on your router)
2. switch tv off and on again
3. check from tv's menu for firmware update via internet
4. install firmware if it detects one (firmware for d-series is not patched, it's original samsung firm with just changed versions number)
5. if no firmware are shown -> report it (not to samsung but here in forum )
6. set your dns back to normal operational
7. switch tv off and on again
8. start smarthub and start some widgets or look into appstore
9. exit from smarthub
10. then you can make develop account in smarthub again and try install rooting widget

Thank you for the detailed answer. And yes, I got an Error during updating FW 001090 over internet. It always stucks at 90%. Do I have to change something in SM? In OTN? I tried in OTN something, and a new Button "Alternative Software" (alternate software) was shown. But it was not active. In OTN I switched everything back to default. In my Router, I set the 1. AND the 2. DNS. Was that my mistake? Should I only change the first DNS and leave the second as default? Or do I simply have to wait for an uploaded GAS6.. FW on your Server?

if you set dns1 and dns2 then set it to same ip. maybe tv has some cached files on rwarea so not sure it will accept this version from server.
sometime it helps if you simply restart tv and check again (but if it fails more then 3 times it makes no sense to try it again )
pls. try it again in 36 hours if it fails again maybe we need to raise the version for you.

and don't touch anything in SM or in other settings!!!! just DNS !!!

thnx

ps: some other one with GAS6 firm can check it?

[johnhawk]

Yes, I set them to the same IP. I will follow your warning, because I don't want to brick my TV. My wife would kill me
Is it possible to delete these cached file, when a factory-reset is made? I think not, otherwise you would have told me yet. On my B-Series TV it is possible to reset the TV by pressing "exit" on remote for more than 10 sec. Is this procedure deleting the cache? I think not - it would be too simple.
