telus 4.3

can the telus version of android 4.3 on my galaxy s3 be downgraded to 4.1.2 without issue? i've heard that AT&T's are bricking if you try and i don't know if they're the same thing.

it's my understanding ( i could be wrong ) that the downgrade is not possible. It's not an AT&T issue, it's something with how KNOX is integrated into 4.3. Anything more in-depth as an answer will need to come from someone more tech-saavy than myself.

As deivegru1 See Profile stated, downgrading from 4.3 to any older version isn't possible as per the update notes from Samsung when the 4.3 update was installed.

However, it might be possible to root and switch over to a different rom/recovery altogether and downgrade from there. Knox does appear to be the major issue.

Best bet is to check the XDA-Developers forums and search/inquire there.
