hi i have updated to oreo beta DUK-L09 8.0.0.321 (C636log) from the files listed in firmware finder.

Now I want to downgrade back to nougat.
I saw another C636 file which looks like the rollback package, "This update will roll back your phone's operating system to Android 7.0 (EMUI 5.1)."

When I try to use dload method, it fails at 5%, is there a nocheck recovery for oreo to help me flash back to nougat? Or is there any other way to flash the rollback pacake?
Thanks!

And: follow guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/how-to/stf-l09c432-how-to-install-oreo-h9-t3707729 (it's similar to our device) and it has rollback guide.
You should be good to go to do a regular update with this recovery
Now follow

why do you want to go back? are there any major bugs with the beta?
Bro. Going back to nougat from oreo is not yet available for this device. Google has changed the structure of all the partitions in oreo. So, until the company releases an official rollback package, you are stuck with it. I flashed the Oreo package after registering for the Beta testing version. I am using this version without any problem. I tried to call the call centre but even they are not aware about any roll back package.....

Nah it's ok you can downgrade to 9.6.4 from MIUI 10 using fastboot rom or using trwp. I did it at least 3 times without any issues.
I had my device yesterday, updated it to Pie, now i want to go back to Oreo, it's not rooted no bootloader unlock, Will it go back to Oreo of remain Pie after factory reset???

Hi Nxkealen,
Why Do You Want To Downgrade ? Is There Any Specific Reason ?
Android 9 PIE Is Stable With New Look. There Are Many New Features/Improvements Like (Good Battery Performance , Digital WellBeing, ETC)
In Addition To That, I Read That, Downgrade Will Not A Easy Task. Someone Was Complaining That SIMS Issue ETC...

Yeah I have same question. Right now I'm on Pie FW just because of Pixel Experience ROM. I want to try Havoc OS but it's using Oreo FW. Is it possible to flash Oreo FW safely? And which variant? Just asking because I have ARB no. 4 and I'm little bit scared of brick. So anyone? Thanks

Yes, you can flash Oreo fw without brick. Just be sure to flash the latest Oreo fw.
I am currently on MIUI Global 9.5.19.0. Do I need to flash the latest firmware before installing an android 9 or 10 custom rom?
Yes buddy u have to flash atleast a pie firmware
(I suggest to flash 9.4.25 firmware, as it is best Pie Firmware)
U can download from Xiaomi firmware updater
