Revet from wrong ROM - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI
Back in febuary (I think) I flashed a beta version of stock android 12, which gave me a few bugs.
I tried to revert, but coulden't because I had upgraded the bootloader
I had flashed the SM-G981B rom but my phone is SM-G781B (Both for Nordic contries)
I've tried on and off the last few month, but without any luck.
Bootloader is unlocked, and when I try to flash though Odin, i either get stuck on super.img, setup connection or set partition.
I've tried:
Dfferent: Cables, USB ports, PC's and ROM versions
All four files, only the AP file and the PIT file, every time without any luck
Only thing is, now I'm unable to boot up anything but the download menu
Any advice to how I should approach this?

Help | Downgrading from android 11 to android 10

Hey everyone,
Im Miro, new here.
I was using reverse tethering to my samsung phone to share PC network with it.
After upgrading to android 11 it stopped working.
So i'm trying to downgrade to android 10 and its so hard
I have Samsung J6 so I tried to download factory image from https://samfw.com/firmware and using adb reboot bootloader and odin3 but got fail message.
Was searching through youtube but couldn't find a solution...
Can anyone tell me how to do it right?
I don't have anything special on the phone so I dont mind reseting.
Thanks!

Disabled OEM Unlock on rooted android device with custom recovery...

Hi! I'm sorry that I have to post this, and this is an incredibly stupid problem. But I disabled OEM Unlock on a rooted device with a custom bootloader...
So I was trying to see if all the developer settings were right and I just made quite the oopsie. I don't know how to fix this. I've got a Samsung SM-T580 that I rooted a couple of years ago and it's still rocking Android 8.1.
How do I fix this? How do I enable OEM Unlock? I'm perfectly fine with formatting the device and losing data, because there's not much to lose. I was planning on trying to get Android 10 on my tablet anyways because the WIFI keeps randomly disconnecting. (Android 8.1 bug)
Thanks in advance!
PS: The bold text acts as a summary.
Edit: FIX:
To fix this issue you just need to download the firmware for your device and your region.
Then you just need to download Odin and unpack both the Odin and firmware .zip files.
Watch this video it really helps:
Do Not use the firmware download link provided in the video, because that site is just a waste of time!
Use this site for firmware download: https://sfirmware.com/
Hope this helps anyone!

I have been attemping to installing magisk on my SM-A01AZ for a while but since my phone does not have have the OEM UNLOCK in the settings it's somewhat hard to do.
so i decided to flash the new SM-A015F update as it has the andriod 12 update and maybe i can get the oem unlock option so i was wondering if it would work.
i plan on Using Patched odin so warm me before i brick my phone.

Alcatel OT 995 keeps rebooting on every booting system

Hi every one,
I tried to re flash an old phone (that i flashed long time ago and that worked but had boot loop now). The problem is that all the roms i try or the recovery mods cause the phone to reboot like 2 sec after starting.
I dont have the battery of the phone so i soldered the VCC of the usb to the battery connector vcc to trick the phone to think there is a battery
Fastboot mode works normally
Recovery mode:
I tried different modes (twrp, cwm) but it allways crashs just after openning. The only one that works is CWM 5.4.4 but only when i boot to it from pc with fastboot.
Custom roms
All the roms i try to flash reboot after alcatel welcome screen (i think they dont even boot). but i didn't flash the gapps zip cause i can't find it
Also it's difficult to find roms or gapps cause all the roms in xda are 2013 and the website were they were stored become another thing hahaha
Please if you have any idea about what i can try ?
Thanks

Thank you and sorry, wasn't sure were to post it.
No one has any idea ?
I tried to recompile a version of cyanogenmod9 (took me couple weeks to figure out and recompile a 10 years old project haha) but when flashing the result, the phone keeps rebooting after splashscreen :/
