Is there anything special that I need to do to downgrade from Pie back to Oreo?
I want to try a few Pie ROMs and if I don't find anything better than my current Oreo setup I would like to be able to rollback.

You should be aware that Pie twrp's require pie firmware and not Oreo firmware.
This means: use older recovery if you want to test pie and roll back to oreo without any problems.
If using Oreo TWRP, can I just flash 5.1.7 to downgrade from 9.0.1?

Yes., but a clean flash may be necessary if problems occur, so keep that in mind.

This makes no sense, how is someone suppose to use Pie with an older Oreo version of TWRP installed to the recovery?
With PIE installed you'll need the PIE firmware version of TWRP and can you really flash Oreo in the PIE TWRP to downgrade?
hmm

You can flash pie firmware with Oreo TWRP. You just need to remove the compatibility.zip

Post 2,3 and 4 gives you everything you need to know. You can simply downgrade but use an Oreo twrp since Oreo needs Oreo ready twrp. What are your concerns?
What about details of your device?

Do you use Hydrogen for yourself?
I'm a Chinese user. Be aware that Hydrogen OS do not permit OTA if you root! That means you are stuck on the current version of Hydrogen with all OTA failling to install. You will have to flash the full package following every update. So I do not recommend Hydrogen OS.

Not at the moment but if my EU variant doesn't get the 150807 update soon I may give it a try.

Yeah, sounds like any typical BBK ROM (Vivo, Oppo) in that rooted ROMs won't OTA.
However, I do remember temporarily fastbooting TWRP on my Find 5 and Find 7 then dirty flashing over the previous ROM. Sometimes it'd not like it and hang to the point of needing a full wipe anyway.

Dirty flash is a good solution. However there are folks in Chinese supporting forum warning the full update package clears everything except internal storage. So you may want a backup or modification on the script before dirty flash. just in case.
DO NOT FLASH THE ZIP!
i flashed it and now i get a locked bootloader, twrp is gone and the phone doesn't start up.

1 question.
possible to share step by step how to FLASH back from oxygen OS to Hydrogen OS?
thanks.
Oneplus Two without root.
I had flashed successfully flashed hydrogenOS n had also successfully update through OTA an update
Mine is a China set on OxygenOS. So those who said one cannot update it through OTA could be mistaken
My phone is rooted
Anyone tested this Rom? And the new version? Please post your reviews and possibly some screenshots if you can.
Thanks in advance
It's awesome. It's a way more smoother then oxygen os. Battery life also awesome, no lags by using the home button. It'd rly great. What u want to see as Screenshot?

Hello guys, I've seen that some people complains that if You root Your phone You can not OTA. IMHo it is a bull**** but Can someone tell how it really is?
For the moment I dont see any ota, it's possible that u don't get ota.. But maybe it's related to deactivated apps. Will report when I see a ota.

Since we won't get any updates I've decided to root my device but before I do so I would like to know if the official root tutorial uploaded by OnePlus would work with Oxygen OS 3.6.0 and what are the usual problems that may come with a failed root.

Yes it will work. Oneplus' firmware is easy to root. You'll not lose any data on unlocking the bootloader either(not guaranteed. I didn't). Just go ahead with it.

Ok, so just to make sure I download the latest TWRP version for OP2 and the latest SuperSU (2.82) and follow the tutorial and I should be fine?

My build number is WAS-LX3C605B186 EMUI 5.1. I want to update to Oreo and firmware finder has a PV update available among others but now I'm reading that firmware finder stopped working is this true? If so what is the most accepted method for upgrading? I'm still not getting the update through the official channels and I'd like to speed things up.
I think u have some minor update to B187 (as i had) then u can c ur emui 8 full update in system update

Oh is that how it is? Yeah, I do have that minor update available to B188 I think. Will I have to reroot after applying it? I just want to know in order to plan ahead.

Yes it is?
U need stock recovery partition(not twrp) so after minor update may not lose ur root but i lost my root after full update to emui 8 and bootloader locked again.

Hello there!
I come here with really important question.
I use the Android Nougat as a daily driver but I'd like to update system to the Oreo. Will I be able to go back to the Nougat if I flashed the Oreo's bootloader and modem?
Thanks in advance for answers!
If u updated bootloader there is no way back

You have to flash the stock ROM of a older version of OxygenOS via flash_all_partions.bat, the easiest way. There is one for OxygenOS 9.0.6

Thank you! The first thread did the trick. I want to sell my OP6T (going back to the Pixel 2XL), but was running the latest Open Beta. I couldn't find a way to go back to stock, nothing seemed to work but this tool. Had to unlock the bootloader to do it, but now it's relocked and I'm rocking the stable again. Thanks again!
