http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65371195&postcount=207
this is the absolute way to roll back from Marshmallow B511 to any previous version whatever it's a lollipop or kitkat.......
(As usual the risk is on your responsibility)
New edit
Working now on MT7-L09
Thx to pasquyx and Shadow_recruit for testing it on MT7-L09
you should have root on the device
Files you may need:
1- Roll back file (this is the trick)- BOTH MODEL
DRIVE
LINK
UPLOADED
LINK
MEGA
LINK
2- rom B326 for middle east
(MT7-TL10)
LINK
(MT7-L09)
LINK
3- oeminfo file for China (don't worry it will not change the iemi numbers)
LINK
3- FX FILE EXPLORER
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx
4- FX ROOT ADD
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx.rr
5- Build.prop file if you device model showing Jazz
(MT7-TL10)
https://mega.nz/#!20QXmKrZ!HYhN_7u0sBc445C_6r6D4ug2HuqdCgM_721ANosUa9g
(MT7-L09) *NEED TO TEST FROM ANY ONE TO CONFIRM IF IT WORKING
https://mega.nz/#!XhxR2BpD!O6xkfX8MR55imidxwNlH9p3r2ugLOYwnM-dheTOQT38
-extract the file what you donloaded for oeminfo on ext sdcard
-open fx file explorer and grant it from SU, go to system root and make sure you mount read-write
-copy oeminfo from the extsdcard to /dev/block/platform/hi_mci0/by name and agree for overwrite, after that select the file and choose security and mark for all "read-write-exec"
-copy custom.bin for extsd to /data then choose security and mark for all "read-write-exec"
-check the country info now by *#*#2846579## if it cn, so you are on the right way
-now make a restart but first you should be on official recovery, if you are not turn off the phone open it again on bootloader and flash the official recovery ten restart
-after restart it should make "optimizing"
-after it finish take the roll back and put it in dload on the extsd
-make a local update ( if you don't have it go to dial and type *#*#2846579#*#* and choose 4)
after you make a local update the roll back should complete 100% because this file is the only roll back that compitable with B511
I promise you it will success with 100%
then put lollipop rom 326 on dload and make local update
and again I promise you it will success with 100%
-if the device didn't open after 10 mins, flash all files for the 326 by fastboot
Boot
Cache
Recovery
Cust
System
Userdata
-now you have a 326 rom but chines version.
-make root again and replace oeminfo and custom.bin for middle east version here then make a restart
LINK
final step is to make a reset from settings

Files here only for TL10
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk

Yes, i noticed it. Just downloaded all needed files for L09, i will try later and see what happens.

Tried on l09 but it fails in transition package. downloaded all the files from huawei finnish site. Well, i think i just wait for the complete marshmallow image.
there is something with whatsapp notification, because i don't allways get new message notifications and also usb-debug and hisuite dont work. when i enable usb-debug and connect cable, it won't rise flag about permmisions and computer keeps saying that device is unathorized.

*******This Method is tested only on MT7-TL10 (Please don't try the files on this thread on different model number ********
Files you may need:
1- Roll back from lollipop to Kitkat (this is the trick)
DRIVE
LINK
UPLOADED
LINK
MEGA
LINK
2- for me i tired with kitkat rom B119 sp03
LINK
3- extract all file from B119 Sp03 and be ready to flash all of them via (fastboot)
(so may unlock your bootloader and you should have all files for adb and fastboot)
*recovery
*boot
*cache
*cust
*system
*userdata
it's an easy way, no need to change the location or make any special things \\\\\
download the rollback file which I mentioned before, put it on dload on the extSdcard, and make a local update ( if local update not showing for you try a search for HwOUC.zip and flash it with Twrp recovery)
after you make a local update the roll back should complete 100% because this file is the only roll back that compitable with B511
then put what you want kitkat or lollipop rom ( for me I tried with B119sp03 kitakt and it's fail on 40%)
now enter the bootloader mode and flash all img's for the rom which you tried to flash
after finishing it opne on a stock android, so no issue try a factory reset and everything will be normal after that
Edit (important): to prevent the fail on 5% you should check the location on your device by this code
*#*#2846579#*#*
It should be hw/meafnaf (middle east version)
If it showing "file is not found" try to make a reset from settings>>backup/restore
This is important edit due to the update of B511 is for middle east.....

This is stock recovery for mt7-l09 to back from twrp to stock recovery of b326 5.1.1 in order to install MM.
You can flash stock recovery in fast boot mod if you rooted your device or installed twrp previously:

You should go into bootloader mode and open the command window from the folder that contain the stock recovery by pressing Sift from keyboard and right bottom in the mouse and choose open command window here, then type the following
fastboot flash recovery xxx.img
Replace "xxx" with the name of the img
If it showing okay then failed
Try to unlock the bootloader again by typing
fastboot oem unlock 0000000000
Replace 00000 with your unlock code
Then try to flash again

Hello guys,
This is my first guide and it is focused on people who just bought their Redmi Note 3 (KENZO/KATE) and having problems with officially unlocking their bootloader. (stuck @ 50% like me)
If you don't want to wait on stock MiUi until you can officially unlock your bootloader (because you need to wait additional ~2 weeks after you received permission from Xiaomi until their servers updated) or you want that extra security layer with locked bootloader this guide is made for you!
Since official LineageOS 14.1 just released, i thought some of you guys are interested in this awesome, easy and safe method.
To save you time searching hours and hours through this forum i made this quick summery.
Downloads :
MiUi 8 Global Developer ROM 6.11.3: KENZO or KATE
ZCX TWRP (direct downloadlink: click here)
Mi Flash 6.8.30
Latest firmware (choose correct device)
[ROM][OFFICIAL][7.1.1][kenzo] LineageOS 14.1 by The_strix
Open GApps - ARM64 - Android 7.1
Instructions : (follow them carefully!)
Extract MiUi 8 Global Developer ROM and replace recovery.img (in images folder) with ZCX TWRP's recovery.img
Flash using Mi Flash (in EDL mode) and check clean_all
After finished flashing process unplug and press [volume up]+[power] until Mi logo shows up then release buttons and it boots to TWRP (change TWRP language from chinese to english: click here)
Reboot to system (if you get prompt: "Disable stock recovery replace now" > just swipe to allow disable)
Boot to MIUI and complete initial setup (important step - don't skip! first boot will take around 10 minutes)
-----------------------------------------------
Shutdown device and boot to TWRP again
(optinal) Backup every partition and safe this backup on an external device
Wipe > Advanced Wipe > check Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache > Swipe to Wipe
Flash Latest firmware, LineageOS 14.1 and GApps (ARM64, Android 7.1)
Reboot to system and you're DONE!!
updated method (works with newest MIUI version) :
There is a new updated method by kuan improved by @N.G. and @razr_96. Thanks for mentioning.
Advantages:
no need to download full MIUI fastboot rom
much faster method, only takes seconds to flash (instead of 4 minutes and you don't have to complete initial MIUI setup which also takes around 5 minutes)
this method is better if you want to stay on MIUI and just want to root
you can stay on your current MIUI version (even 7.1.19 which is currently the latest) and don't have to wipe your data
Disadvantages:
this doesn't clean everything, i would recommend to clean everything if you want to install a custom rom
you have to download a file i can not verify
Instructions : (follow them carefully!)
(optinal) Backup your current MIUI data (Settings > Additional settings > Backup & reset > Local backups > Back up) and copy it to an external media
Download and extract: Kenzo or Kate
(optinal) Replace included ZCX TWRP recovery.img (in images folder) with your preferred TWRP recovery.img
Flash using Mi Flash 20160401 (in EDL mode) and check flash all except data and storage (not clean_all like in the method mentioned above)
BE AWARE: This MiFlash version is different to the MiFlash version mentioned above! This version does only support 64 bit systems and you need atleast Windows 7!
After finished flashing process unplug and press [volume up]+[power] until Mi logo shows up then release buttons and it boots to TWRP (change TWRP language from chinese to english: click here)
Reboot to system

Troubleshooting :
[APP][ROOT][7.1.1]QuickSettings Flashlight fix for all nougat roms
If something goes wrong, start over again and follow my guide step by step.
This guide only works with MiUi 8 Global Developer ROM 6.11.3 or lower.
Put MIUI 8 Global Developer ROM in "C:\ROM" - MiFlash tends to have problems if there are any spaces in folder names.
If you flashed something wrong and have no simcard signal anymore or no IMEI look here for help: EFS Recovery Guide
If you didn't remove your passcode before you did a backuprestore using TWRP:
TWRP > Advanced > Filemanager > /data/system > delete locksettings.db
Issues with locked bootloader :
none
(advanced technique) Higher security with locked bootloader:
Thanks @LeoYL !
A little addition: If you want a even higher level of security, which is nobody except you can flash packages in recovery, you can create a recovery with limited functions and forced signature verification, with your own keys embedded in that recovery.
This is just like the original status of nearly all Android devices when they are shipped: only signed OTA update packages can be applied via recovery. Normally, the packages are signed by OEMs; however, you can become the "OEM" by creating your own private key, which is used during package signing.
Just follow these guides to create a recovery with your own keys. I use CM 13.0 recovery, since it only has basic recovery features, including installing a ZIP file, factory reset, and it has mandatory ZIP signature verification.
http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/31765.html
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62796459&postcount=2
The reason why I don't use TWRP is that it allows update packages with any signature. Although you can enforce signature verification, it can also be switched off in TWRP settings.
Now you get a recovery which only accepts ZIP packages that are signed with your own private key. The only downside is you need to sign every package you want to flash each time. But this also means that if a stranger picks your lost phone up, they can't tamper your phone's OS. If the "reset protection" feature works with locked bootloader on our Redmi Note 3, the only distance between our phones' security and Google devices' is edl mode and encryption.
Wanna try other custom roms?
Just follow this guide and you can flash every other nougat customrom as well like:
[ROM]AOSIP 5.5 for Redmi Note 3(Kenzo)[OFFICIAL BUILDS]
[ROM][Nightlies][android-7.1.1_r6]ResurrectionRemix 5.8.0[OFFICIAL][VoLTE]
[ROM][OFFICIAL][Weekly][7.1.1_R13][Slim 7 For Kenzo]
[ROM] ► [7.1.1 ► N4F26M] ► [OTA][OMS][Goodix] ► Nitrogen OS

This method also works with Kenzo, obviously using the Kenzo miui rom and firmware instead.

How to successfully unlock bootloader(official way) worked for me
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/successfully-officially-unlocked-redmi-t3543150

Because that one in thread not working properly.

The guide you linked is not working for me, thats why i made this guide which works 100%.

I tried this with the Global developer ROM for my kenzo.
When I try to get into TWRP, the Mi logo flashes but nothing else happens.
When I let the MIUI ROM start up and try to get into the recovery again,
it only shows me to connect my device to the Mi PC Manager.
What am I doing wrong?

Did you follow my instructions correctly?
- replaced recovery.img with ZCX TWRP recovery.img - check?
- EDL mode - check?
- remove usb cable after flash and press volume up+power button until mi logo shows up and then release buttons - check?
- are you sure you have kenzo version? did you download rom for kenzo? - check?
!! caution: the rom linked in this guide is only for kate version!!

thank you ! I've been trying the official route for 6 weeks, getting absolutely nowhere (even though I finally do have unlock permission).
this method worked like a charm, finally I'm off MIUI and running LineageOS

1. I guess, do I have to replace only the recovery.img or more? If only recovery.img, then yes!
2. Yes, otherwise MiFlash would give me an error instead of flashing the ROM
3. Yes, but it appears only for an blink of an eye and then disappears again, the phone screen then stays dark
4. Yes, the newest one. Maybe that's the problem?

Yes, that's the problem! This method only works until version 6.11.3.
You have to flash 6.11.3 (or earlier) to get TWRP and then you can flash what you want.
Good luck!

Excellent :good:
To boot into EDL
If you are lost with chinese language in TWRP, look at the first screenshot
And for Gapps take 64bits

Hi, I just got this ROM but when I plug the device in my computer it keeps connecting/disconnecting rapidly. Did I do something wrong?

Very helpful, but i would like to suggest people to use miunlocktool from windows 7-32 bit operating system. Miunlocktool perfectly works in windows 7 & don't stuck at 50%. Before unlock process, just "add oem unlocking device" from MIUI developer setting then start unlocking process..... Its really works for me & also others who followed these steps.

You don't think i've/we've tried everything? Official unlock works for you? Great! But it doesn't work for everyone... trust me.
Can we please stop to suggest to unlock officially with different guides? This guide is for people who don't want to or can't unlock officially.

I also said that million times to other people who suggest me different types of official method. When i success after trying couple of methods then i realized it is possible to unlock kate. I'm not saying that your post is not helpful, i saw many post like that, mostly in whirlpool forum. BTW, good luck with your tips :good:

Sure it is possible to unlock Kate officially but you have to wait for Xiaomi to get permission and wait for their servers to syncronize.
You have to wait up to 1 month (depending on your location and other things) until their servers confirms that you have permission to unlock (unable to verify thing). All these guides outside are working but it's a matter of time until they start working. That's why they didn't work for you in first place. :good:

hi @khajiit
They say not enough storage when I want to flash it. Could you please help me with this?
Spoiler: not enough

You are using a really old MiFlash version, try updating to the version mentioned in this guide.
And rename your folder "Redmi note 3 pro" to "Redmi.note.3.pro" or "Redmi_note_3_pro".
MiFlash tends to have problem with spaces.

[Guide] Nougat with DRM fix, root and TWRP* (SGP771)

Do not work with Nougat 7.1.1 / 32.4.A.0.160 (Bootloop)
New TWRP (You dont need otg and mouse anymore!):
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120733410 (thanks to andralex8!)
GUIDE UPDATED, TESTED AND SIMPLIFIED 15.2.2017 (thanks to munjeni)
Tested with Saudi Arabia, Germany and Nordic (.378) firmwares
I managed to get my Xperia Z4 Tablet (SGP771) LTE model to have root, TWRP-recovery*, munjenis DRM fix and Adaway working with Nougat firmware (Saudi Arabia). I will share steps that I have done with my own tablet. If this guide brick your device or something goes wrong, I am not responsible for loss of your device. Use this guide only with your own RISK!
This tutorial is not for beginners. You need to have working adb installed yout pc, unlocked tablet, sonys special driver for fastboot. and TA backup (example TA-21062016.img). Use only this tutorial with Sony USB-cable.
*To get TWRP working, you need: OTG-cable and a mouse with wire or wireless mouse with a dongle.
0. Download Nougat 32.3.A.0.376 (Saudi Arabia) firmware with Xperiafirm 32.3.A.0376. to your PC
1. Flash Nougat 32.3.A.0.376 (Saudi Arabia) with Flashtool 0.9.23.2.
2. Boot your device and enable Developer settings from setting
3. Enable USB debugging setting from Developer settings
4. Download Supersu and Magisk to your device:
https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/supersu/download/zip/SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip
http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk
5. Shutdown your device
6. Download munjenis DRM fix and serajr script package v2 to your pc:
http://munjeni.myiphost.com/ta_poc.rar
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70959962&postcount=65
7. Decompress files from munjeni and serajir to same folder.
8. Extract kernel.sin from your nougat firmware ftf (You can use 7zip to do this). Copy it to same folder with DRM fix. Rename kernel.sin to kernelX.sin
9. Copy your TA backup to same folder with DRM fix and rename it TA.img
10. Open Cmd with admistrator persimmions and use DOUBLECLICKME_NOUGAT.bat (search cmd rght mouseclick use admistrator).
11. Follow munjenis tool tutorial: You can choose if you want Sony Ric off. I left it on but turned dm verity off.
12. Download TWRP: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B0j3VJ1Xp5N8cnhQamtxRWVtRmc
13. Press vol up and connect your device to pc to use fastboot. Use command: fastboot flash boot new_boot.img
14. After that use command: fastboot flash recovery TWRP-3.0.2-0-20160604.img
15. Disconnect your device and put otg-cable to tablets usb and connect mouse to otg-cable.
16. Press vol down + power to boot to TWRP. Touchscreen is not workin but you can use your mouse to navigate in TWRP!
17. Allow TWRP to make changes to your device and flash Supersu 2.79 and Magisk 11.1.
18 Boot your device and install magisk manager from the play store.
19. Enable from magisk manager settings: busybox, magisk hide and systemless hosts and Install Adaway (Will not work without Magisk, strange).
I have not managed to get my CTS profile approved but that is not major issue if not playing with Pokemon go (You can use magisk to detect this).
Note1 : Change LTE to 1 priority from mobile setting. Default for SA firmware is GSM
Note2: If you have already tried rootkernel to get drm working; do a full wipe and reflash firmware with flashtool. Rootkernel messes something. Tablet do not boot if you have used rootkernel and after that try to use munjenis DRM fix.
Note3: Magisk 11.1 wont work with Xperia Z4 Tablet without Supersu. So flash Supersu first and Magisk 11.1 after that
Note4: You cannot boot to TWRP by using root and reboot to recovery apps. You need to boot to the recovery with keycommand voldown+power
I hope this guide helps some fellow flashers

Did you do a full wipe? Try to fastboot flash boot new_boot.img after flashing recovery!

Tried wiping now flashing kernel gives me a no sim card error

Strange, I Did not encourter this problem because I could boot to TWRP and do adb trick there. Do you use orginal Sony usb to flash in fastboot? I had once a problem with Samsung Phone (S7) to flash recovery because the usb was not the one that came with my Phone.

Yeah

Try redownload TWRP image and flash it. If not working do a clean flash and try again or wait for Androplus kernel

Tried it all nothing worked still no sim error

Couldnt I just do the root and recovery method you have given on the wifi version as im not too bothered about drm fix for now as it looks abit complicated at the moment for me. It would be much more simple for me to flash recovery then super su. I just wanna know if this is possible?
Thanks

I am not sure. You need atleast a correct TWRP. You can try if You dare with your own RISK
But I doubt that it wont work..

Ok then dont think id like to try incase it doesnt boot so I think I might just wait for andro to do his stuff.

I have updated the guide and tested it today (13.2.2017) and it is working again

Guide updated and simplificed 15.2.2017. Thanks to munjeni!

Step 8 says Extract kernel.sin from your nougat firmware copy it to same folder with DRM fix. Rename kernel.sin to kernelX.sin. Do I have to extract that from the ftf or my Nougat firmware im currently using? Also does the ftf have to be that region?

You need to extract it from ftf-image. I used 7zip. My device was Nee with stock. I used DE with Marshmallow and I am currently using Saudi Arabia. So I dont think it will matter, which kernel you use with your device. But I would use same kernel version with rom. So If you are using Saudi Arabia rom use Saudi Arabia kernel. For Russia rom use Russia kernel, and so on
I will add tft-image extract to tutorial!

DRM fix doesn't work. XReality (among other things I assume) are ever disabled.
On Marshmallow DRM fix was working fine (was using XReality engine despite the unlocked bootloader)

For me it is working!

Have you unlocked the bootloader?

Hi guys. Sombody help me. How can i flash magisk on my p9 plus, i try many twrp, but everytime i see loop?

New release is up - TWRP 3.1.1-0 for P9 Plus.
Kernel should now support loop from b381 onwards.
Check OP for download link and github for more information!
P9 Plus Releases + Changelog
Regards

I'm sorry for the inconvenience but i forgot to exclude the special directory inside the /data partition during wipe/factory reset.
I've re-uploaded the fixed release, so everyone who had already installed 3.1.1-0 should now re-download and re-install.
Best regards

I'm sorry if this question has been asked somewhere else before, but can I flash an OTA update (extracted .zip) using TWRP, while keeping TWRP and SU?
It's quite bothersome to go back to full-stock, lock the bootloader, run the update, unlock the bootloader and root again, just for a minor update like B360 to B370.
I'm currently on B360 with TWRP 3.1.0 and SuperSU (rooted).

Hi, I can tell you in advance that NO, at least with an earlier version and that in principle it is only for normal P9.
Actually, you could only install that recovery, but with that I do not know what to tell you.
Anyway, due to the internal form of Huawei updates, they can not be installed since twrp, at least I have not been able to, nor anyone I know.
Sorry for my bad English, I do not know, and I use a translator.

How to install ROM Stock Oreo with Nougat firmware (1.27.401.11 DUGL)

Are you tired of waiting for OREO to arrive? The purpose of this guide is intended for those wishing to install Android Oreo without updating the Nougat firmware currently in use. I have personally performed this procedure successfully and I will explain how did it.
REQUIREMENTS
· Have current firmware Android 7.1.0 - Nougat (version 1.27.401.11) already in use in your phone;
· Bootloader unlocked;
· Twrp 3.2.x-x installed (see the latest version.)
CAUTION
Before proceeding it is good to backup your data (I suggest using Nandroid Backup included in TWRP).
Download the following files to the PC (Windows operating system):
1. TWRP_Backup_Untouched_System_Image_+_Boot_2.31.400.6_OCEAN_DUGL (Rom stock Indiana - dual sim - very similar to the European version);
2. http://www.leedroid.co.uk/Stable_Builds/Oreo_Radio_BT_DSP_TWRP_Flashable_v2_Euro.zip;
3. twrp-3.2.x-x-ocn.img (to always keep at hand ... you never know!);
4. Magisk 15.x (also included Magisk Manager 5.5.x).
Once you have downloaded the files to your PC, proceed as follows:
- Extract the contents of the file of point 1) on the PC and copy it to the External SD card in the TWRP \\ BACKUPS \\ FA 'xxxxxxxxxx' folder (where 'xxxxxx' is the exact name you have and it contains the backups of your Roms!;
- Copy the file from point 2) 3) and 4) to the root directory of your External SD card (or even to a folder created by you as you wish).
INSTALLATION
• Restart your phone in TWRP Recovery mode;
• Perform a complete full wipe;
• Install the file containing the radio, bluetooth and dsp in step 2);
• Now execute the file Recovery in step 1) (2017-12-22-07-37-51_My_2.31.400.6_0 ....... with this name);
• Do not restart yet: install the file in step 4);
• Finally install as image (Install image) the file in step 3) putting the check to the item 'Recovery' (so you are sure that TWRP there is ... you never know!);
• Restart and enjoy OREO!

When you get back to TWRP, you can also enable file system writing ...obviously being Oreo with Nougat firmware there will be limitations ...
CAUTION
Remember that to go back you must enter Download Mode and run the RUU corresponding to your firmware that you have in your smartphone: it is the cleanest way to restore it without the need to be S-OFF: this procedure will erase all the data in the internal memory of your phone.
Last thing: do not be scared if you see that it takes time when you restart or turn off your phone ... it's normal ..
Sorry if my English is not perfect ...

At this time the roll out of Android 8.0 was announced for Europe too.....

Take a read and a look at my guides thread. There you'll find out about how to flash a RUU to upgrade your ROM to Oreo. RUUs can be found in my spreadsheet and if the required one isn't yet available you might have to look at some payed service portals like e.g. IR-File or easy-firmware if it is already available over there. As HTC doens't provide RUUs for download free ofcharge outsinde the US, this most of the time is the only solution available.

Hello, thank you for your reply. I've managed to install Oreo (LeeDroid) after bootloader unlocking and TWRP instalation, radio, etc. following instructions from XDA. All seems to work fine but after it doesn't, I've had some problems with applications running. I'm asking my self now why I've done it then, but I've tried to get back to stock ROM by TWRP restore... I exectute backup from SD card and something went wrong and now I have problem... i'm stuck in boot loop. I can run stock recovery but when I'm trying to install stock ROM by update form SD card or ADB sideload I receive: e footer is wrong e:/ signature verification failed installation aborted or unable to open sysfs usb node.. Is there any way to fix it?

Are you sure you're using the correct RUU fpr your model, do CID, and MID macht, did you use the extSD card method describend in my guides thread?
What's the first we need to help? Exactly a fastboot getvar all and a full an precise description of the file you're trying to use (incl. a link where you downloaded it if possible).

Thank you for your reply. I managed to run my HTC in safe mode, (I guess) next I've followed instructions how to returrn to stock ROM wit RUU and finally restore stock ROM. Now all is ok.

Update to Oreo
Hello,
Kindly request, can anyone direct me or write a exactly step by step how can I change Nugat 7.1.1 to Oreo 8.0.0 ?
Carrier: Orange Poland
HTC u 11 details:
bootloader unlocked by htcdev
htc_ocnuhl PVT S-ON
RADIO 8998-001791-1705231845

Thank you in advance!

Update to Oreo
Hello,
Can anyone answer please?

I assume the above poster found the info requested, as there are plenty of guides and info to do just that.
Break Break
My question is can you extract the radio image from an older firmware and flash it? i.e., can I install the latest Oreo, or even PIE once it's ready, and if I still have radio issues, just flash the Nougat 7.1.1 radio firmware? I know how to get the firmware, I know how to extract the radio image, I believe I know how to flash it in download mode. Before experimenting, was hoping someone could give me some expertise before trying it.
Thanks!!
