The entire instructions have been broken down into separate sections for ease of understanding. Follow along in the exact same sequence as mentioned.

STEP 1: Take a Device Backup

To begin with, take a backup of all the data on your device. This is because the below downgrade process might wipe off all the data.

STEP 2: Install Odin

Next up, install the Odin Tool on your PC. This will be used to install the downgrade firmware onto your device.

STEP 3: Download the Rollback Firmware

Likewise, download the rollback firmware for your device. This will help you to downgrade your Samsung M31 from One UI 4.0 to 3.0 i.e. from Android 12 to 11. You could download the Android 10 firmware using the Frija Tool or the Samfirm tool. Just make sure to download the firmware corresponding to your region only.

STEP 4: Boot Samsung Galaxy M31 to Download Mode

Along the same lines, you will have to boot your device to the Download Mode. To do so, Power off your device. Then press and hold the Volume Down + Volume Up together and connect your device to the PC via USB cable. As soon as you see the Download Mode, release all the keys. Finally, use the Volume Up key to select the OK option. That’s it. Your Samsung M31 will now be booted to the Download Mode.

STEP 5: Downgrade Samsung M31 One UI 4.0 to 3.0

Now that you have carried out the above four steps, you may start off with the downgrade process.

1. To begin with, extract the downgrade firmware onto your PC. You should get the AP, BL, CP, CSC, and Home CSC files in the .tar.md5 format.
   
2. Then launch the Odin Tool and connect your device to the PC via USB cable. Make sure that it is booted to Download Mode.
3. As soon as the connection is established, Odin’s ID: COM port will be highlighted. This means that the tool has successfully identified your device in the Download Mode.
   
4. It’s now time to load the firmware files to Odin. So first of all, click on the tool’s BL button and load the BL firmware file.
5. Likewise, do the same for the AP, CP, and CSC. Do keep in mind that you should load the Home CSC file and not the normal one under the CSC section.
6. Once you have loaded all the firmware files, go to the Options section of Odin. Now enable the ‘Auto Reboot’ and ‘F.Reset Time’ options.
   
7. When that is done, hit the Start button and wait for the installation to complete.
