I'm on SuperXE 8.0 Oreo ROM with latest Franco kernel and I'm curious if down grading is as simple as full wipe, flash Nougat vendor, flash ROM, Gapps, Kernel, root?

Should be yes. If the sensors do not work properly then you'll have to wipe the entire phone.

I have a quick question.
I flashed the franco kernel using franco's app, and also made a backup of my stock kernel using the same app before flashing.
If i decide to revert back to stock kernel, all i'll have to do is flash the stock kernel backup, right? It won't mess anything up?

I'm actually getting ready to flash Franco's Rom now, I figured since the kernel is in the boot image, and if I make a backup with TWRP (doing full since I want to keep my latest changes). Then if I don't like it I can just restore only the boot image portion of it assuming everything else remains the same.

Flash ROM and gapps don't wipe anything = dirty flash

Hi,
I have stock rom 4.2.2 on my tilapia.
Few day ago I've made root access.
I'm testing some kernels. but now, I lost my 3G connection permanently.
There were a moment, when I had a connection (poor, but have sometimes) for example on M-kernel, or a44.
I've installed franco for testing now. but I've lost my 3G connection.
(I think it's not so important)
Main question:
I have stock 4.2.2 and kernel a38 by Mettalice. Can I flash only "tilapia-radio.img" from oryginal/stock rom in recovery ?
Yes you can flash only the kernel img. But wipe cache and dalvik cache after.

No, no.
I've already flashed anotker kernel with stock 4.2.2
but I've lost my 3g connection and now, I want to flash ONLY tilapia-radio.img from original rom.
Can I do it ?

Yes, you can use fastboot to flash it in thru the bootloader. My guess is simply the kernel or ROM you are on does not support the 3g version of the n7. I believe you even said you flashed a new kernel that killed your radio. Just a thought. You would have to actively try to delete your radio, which I doubt you did.

I tried 3 nougat test builds yesterday: benzo, simple and maple. I had the same experience on all 3: no audio. YouTube wouldn't play, couldn't hear phone conversion.
Because it was the same experience on all 3 builds, I assume that I messed up a step.
I fastbooted latest bootloader and radio, then flashed ROM, gapps (benzongapps all times because open gapps kept fcing on setup), then flashed vendor image via twrp 3.2.0-2. I tried both with stock kernel and electron kernel.
Which gapps should I be using? (I downloaded arm64-7-stock), was my flashing out of order?
I'm back to dirty unicorns, but want to try nougat again soon.
Thanks

The flashing process seems to be fine. Yes, you are using the right GApps.
Is it happening on MM ROMs too? And what about stock Nougat?
Try installing stock Nougat from Google. Report back !
Hello, I want to flash the 7.0 update yet I'm uncertain as to which build I'm supposed to use. I'm currently on MTC19T but don't know which I'm supposed to use from the factory images " 7.0.0 (NRD90T)" or "7.0.0 (NRD90U) ".
I'm currently on PureNexus ROM with ElementalX kernel.
This is about the Nexus 6P.
Use the latest (NRD90U).
I was wondering if you're on a custom 6.0.1 ROM (DU for example) if you can just clean flash up to a 7.0 ROM? Or do you need to first do a flash-all.bat of the NRD90U from google or something like that? Idk how simple moving up to nougat is.

You can clean flash a 7.0 rom, however you need to flash the matching 7.0 vendor.omg as well.
