[Z2 PRO] Is downgrade from 7.0 to 6.0 possible? - Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Questions & Answers

Is it possible to downgrade from 7.0 to 6.0 just flashing the rom with QFIL? I'm facing some problems with the Quick Charge in the Nougat Stock version and I want to do a downgrade. Mine isn't rooted and the bootloader is locked.

yep possible flash stock qfil 2.3.044 or any marshmallow version

it is possible to downgrade your rom using QFIL method.. backup your data first

It is even possible through TWRP I was able to downgrade from Stock ZUI 2.5.381 Android 7.0 to MIUI 8 Android 6.0.1 without any problem just factory reset through TWRP before install the MIUI 8 based on 6.0.1 and the TWRP even show while installing the it is taking the current new kernel 3.18.... and it is adopting it for the 6.0.1 ... I really like this feature .... and yes everything works fine no problems all features works fine no drivers problem or other interruptions ...

If I buy this phone, should I avoid upgrading to 7.x? `

Using this guide:

but you DONT NEED part 2,3,4 because you are already on C432.
Its not possible to use nougat with marshmallow firmware.

restoring backed up stock roms modem to a custom rom

I would just like to know what would happen if i tried restoring a backed up version of the stock modem that come with my phone through TWRP. would it be safe or would i have a bricked phone by the end of it?
hi,
though I'm not experienced with that, it appears to be safe to restore a modem at the Redmi Note 4X.
Unsure about Redmi 4X but I'm interested too.
edit: there's already a discussion about flashing modems at XDA unter FIRMWARES:

What is unsafe is having a Marshmallow firmware for a Nougat ROM and up, if you plan to use Nougat or newer I'd recommend flashing 37_PA, the newest firmware from Global Dev MIUI, firmwares should be always universal unless it's noted, some MIUI update also comes with a firmware, if you see some Nougat ROM they'll ask you to update to a newer firmware if you were on Marshmallow, which is why MIUI 8 (MM) to 9 (N) will also update your firmware
TLDR; if your backed up firmware is from Marshmallow and your ROM is Nougat or newer no it's not safe, otherwise everything is good, if you want to update firmware just flash the boot.img from TWRP
hey thatnks much imma check it out
alright ill try this out as well thank you

PRA-LX1 Root with official Oreo 8.0.0?

Hey there,
Finally my Phone gave me a notification for downloading Oreo 8.0.0 and I was wondering if it works the easy way to root it?
My Phone is running on EMUI 5 Android 7.0 build B212 with TWRP and Magisk 16.0 Root.
I Thought about this way to get the Official Oreo Rom rooted :
- Get back to Stock Recovery
- Update to Oreo 8.0.0
- unlock bootloader again if it Relocks
- flash TWRP for Oreo
- flash Magisk via TWRP to gain root on Oreo
Do you guys think that this will work?
Thanks for any suggestion
Hi,
Yeah it should be fine with those steps.
And if you encounter any weird behavior, perform a factory reset using original Recovery.

P9 Plus Stock Rom Recovery

Hello everyone,
I recently wanted to upgrade my Stock P9 Plus from Android 6.0 EMUI 4.1.1 to at least Android 8. I unlocked the Bootloader with DC-Unlocker, installed TWRP and tried Openkirin. It didn't work and now my Phone doesn't boot because there is no valid OS installed.
Im searching for a stock ROM for my VIE-L09 that returns my phone to the factory version.
I'd also be interested in installing a custom ROM, but i didn't find anything that works.
Please help me.
