So a lot of users have been unhappy about the Oreo update on Moto G5S. But the downgrade to 7.1 is not easy. But some people claim to have successfully downgraded to 7.1 from 8.1 and retained the IMEI (with Bootloader version 12). Can you guys post the detailed guide on how to do it properly, please. I also request the senior members to have a look at the guide and advice regarding the same so that we can avoid bricks and other issues. Thank You.

Hello,
I'm considering going back to the stock ROM in my moto z play XT1635-02 retla1st but I would like to know if I would have a problem installing the RETAIL version when receiving OTA's or some other problem.
I currently have the bootloader unlocked and a compilation that is not the official one but I want to remove the root and receive the updates without any inconvenience.
best regards

I do not know if you can downgrade from a 7.1 ROM to a 6.x Stock via RSD and have your phone usable. With some phones if you downgrade to MM you brick it.
If it survives, you would then need to find a way to lock the bootloader.
In the same Android versión it's possible install a retail ROM?

I believe if your phone (bootloaders) is 7.x you can RSD 7.x and if phone is 6.x you can RSD 6.x .

I used this guide today, it worked without any problems. I went from rooted 7.1.1 stock september security patch to 7.1.1 stock november security patch with locked bootloader. OTA december security patch worked as well. I even unlocked the bootloader again and am now rooted with magisk safety net passing

Hi
I am a very non-tech-savvy person and i have been using stock rom from always. I was always afraid of getting myself into some issue which won't be reversible. But now i have gathered some courage in installing a custom rom such as lineage os.
I have LG V20 H910 (att version) and it is on stock rom. I tried rooting it with kingoroot but it failed. Then i searched for its solution and came to know that V20 cannot be rooted by these software because its bootloader is locked and it needs special way. Well i didn't try and continued using stock rom.
Then i came to know that V20 is in the process of getting android 8 update soon from a android authority forum and i am still waiting.
I posted before in V20 forum that i am on a very old version of android 7 with patch level of December 2016 in this thread.
I am now thinking of installing the lineage os 14.1 which is the latest for my model. I tried searching for known bugs and issues and came to know that lineage os for h910 doesn't support second screen as of yet. Is there any solution or workaround for this? Because i love using the second screen.
2ndly i wanted to ask, if i unlock the bootloader and root the device, can i install the international version of v20 rom or it is not possible.
Please help me with these. I will be very thankful to you for your honest help.

I don't have this device but, your better off obtaining device specific guidance either from the following Official LineageOS thread or the Q&A thread that's specific to your device.

Hello,
I have a Brazilian G8s currently running February security patches on ver. v10b-BRA.
Unfortunately LG Brazil is ignoring us and has not even given a estimated date for the release of Android 10 on the phone, so I came to ask for your help hahahah
The only method I have seen that seems like it would work is to install a leaked Beta using "activity launcher" as described in this forum post but I would like to use a more stable release of A10 if possible.
I have rooted an Android phone a few years ago, so if that is required I believe I could do it, it would just be a lot easier to have some kind of guide to follow, as I have found a lack of resources regarding this kind of firmware flash on the G8s...
Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance to anyone who is able to help me out! I just want native dark mode and gesture navigation hahahah
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g8/how-to/rooting-g8s-guide-t4044193 there is the rooting guide, it works flawlessly on EU version of G8S. I am not sure which firmware and its magisk_patched.img should you use, maybe some from beta? Hopefully they will later deliver Android 11 in Brazil... https://www.androidauthority.com/android-11-update-tracker-1155652/

I am not sure if this works on BRA G8s, even if it is an EAW model.
Tried it anyway just now but the adb reboot bootloader line on cmd says there is no device found, even with the phone with developer mode etc. turned on...
Thanks for your help anyway, I will try unlocking the bootloader again later and update the post if it works!
Hi,I just got the Mi 10T Pro yesterday,
I was disappointed to get the EEA version so I went ahead and used the Mi tool to convert to Global stable,
Everything seems to be fine and I'm on
Version V12.0.9.QJDMXM
Only concern I have is that my Security Is saying 2020-11-01 but the description of the ROM says updated security
To December
Can anyone on global stable same version as me confirm its on November
Or has something gone wrong as the previous EEA version I had was November.
Thanks
The changelog is wrong. Wait for next update to be fixed
Thanks for the reply,that's good actually because I was a bit apprehensive after using the Mi Tool on a locked bootloader to convert ROMs but I guess everything worked.

I dont think you need a dongle to install PE,
But you still need to downgrade. So unbrick to android 10, follow my twrp and root guide on my pinned Mega thread, then follow the directions on the PE to flash PE in twrp. If you have a 5s device you need the 5S los kernel to boot.
I wanna go back to Android 10 on my RED Magic 5G..
