Downgrade redmi note 8 pro to OREO? - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi
Like the title said i want to know if its possible to downgrade my RN8P to oreo (if yes how)
because on A9 my CTS profile its false and i have tryed to change fingerprint too without success....
im waiting your answer guys ty

There's no Oreo for RN8P.
About safetynet, do you have an unlocked bootloader?
Because if you do, this is the reason CTS is false.

Oh, i understand. The problem is that rooting will make you lose SafetyNet pass.
Sorry, i don't really know how to pass SafetyNet with root access.
Have a great day!

Safetynet

If I were to unlock my bootloader, flash unmodified 8.1 dev preview and relock the bootloader, would I be able to pass safetynet? Or does unlocking the bootloader mean I'll permanently need to find workarounds no matter what I do afterwards?
Magisk rooting hides that. I can confirm that it works all the way up to November security patch. Look at the developer forum for more information.

Yes.
I have a related question. Is locking the bootloader even necessary? I thought having an unrooted rom on an unlocked bootloader phone passes safetynet?

Safetynet checks for Bootloader Status, unlocked doesn't pass.

Custom roms often make changes at the kernel level to block safetynet's ability to check the bootloader status, which makes it pass (for now). Magisk also hides bootloader unlock status from safetynet. So there are workarounds.

Question Widevine Level

Hey there,
I get next week my OP9 Pro.
Is it right, that I lose Widevine L1 after I the unlock bootloader or are there any new tricks?
If not then I must dispense of root...
Thanks for your help.
Mine stays on L1 with unlocked bootloader and latest magisk.

That sounds good. I will try it next week. Which model do you have EU, Global or Indian?
Just wanted to ask the same question... Thanks @Marcelm2000 and @FlipmodeBG !!!
Can someone confirm this with an EU device?
EU version here, L1 after bootloader unlock and magick canary

Mine 9 Pro - newest EU Soft, magisk stable, and L1 level here
Just unlocked my bootloader yesterday and after unlocking gave me Widevine L3. After rooting with magisk stable and magiskhide it gave me L1
Anyone have L1 on Global? I'm rooted with Magisk canary, passing safetynet, but still at L3.

What command did you use to unlock the bootloader?
Did you use Magiskhide?

I used fastboot oem unlock, if I recall correctly. And I have MagiskHide enable in Magisk.
I had done the same the first time with that command and mine also was L3.
What I did and fixed it (for me) was relocking the bootloader and unlock it with "fastboot flashing unlock", then installed magisk stable and used MagiskHide, then it was L1. Hope this fix it for you.

Does this require wiping data like usual when re-locking and then unlocking bootloader again?

Disregard my last message. I asked because Netflix said L3, but I downloaded the DRM Info app and it shows L1. I cleared cache and data for Netflix and then logged back in and now it shows L1 there too.
Here's the thread that helped me figure that out:

Thanks for your reply, it could help some other users. But after my first unlock DRM info said Widevine was L3. But second attempt was successful
Other than looking at your streaming rate, is there a way to tell which level of widevine you have?

I don't even know how to view my streaming rate. Everyone uses the DRM Info app on the play store. It will tell you.

Okay, I redid everything, using fastboot flashing unlock this time, and I'm getting L1.
interesting, I am on global 11.2.2.2 (rooted/magisk stable/lsposed) running magisk hide and getting L1 widevide. I used 'fastboot oem unlock' but I do not use netflix so it doesn't matter too much for me, but good to know.

unlocking bootloader and widevine

Hi , I would like to unlock the bootloader ->root(magisk)-> install viper4android and blocking ad module.I have updated to 12.0.1.0(RJSEUXM) (android 11) completely stock.
What about the widevine L1 ? If i unlock the bootloader i lose the L1 forever or only when unlocked or only when phone is rooted.
Is there any module for the device to be in L1 state and rooted?
Has anyone tested it?

Edit - retested and it's L1
Because I had vanced installed it shows as L3
For some reason Mi 10T lite maintains L1 widevine with unlocked bootloader. I always use Magisk hide, so it might contribute to the fact that L1 still works. I've just checked it on my 12.0.1.0 RJSEUXM with DRM info app and Netflix, both reporting L1.
@_mysiak_ so its safe to root. Might have you installed viper4android with this version? is working properly?

Yes, I am using Viper on a daily basis. With recent Magisk versions it might need a fix - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/mod-viper4android-miui-12-magisk-21-1.4203489/

If your phone version is not Chinese, relock the bootloader.
Don't want to lock the bootloader you misunderstood my question

That is to say that with so many details in your question, it is difficult to answer precisely but if your device is Chinese only root and magisk will allow this.

Better than stock,certified play store with unlocked bootloader without root.

downgrade or installing rom,No?
AFAIK no other way than to flash Magisk, enable Zygisk and use Module "SafetyNet-Fix".
If you don't use Root, in Magisk you can set to auto-deny all Root-requests.
So if I installed the EEA stock fastboot rom, I would not pass the Google Play store certification and safetynet if I leave the bootloader unlocked? Just to be sure.
This is the first I've read about this. I was thinking maybe go back to stock for a change.
Can I unlock the bootloader again in the future if I install the rom with clean all and lock?
Yes, simply unlocking the bootloader will fail SafetyNet.
Yes, you can unlock the Bootloader again, at any time.
yes you can unlock again, instantly, you wont need to wait 7 days

I'm on stock A12 TMO LE2127 rooted using magisk and unlocked bootloader. An app I use will not run under this state unless I add it to the magisk deny list. I am widevine L1.

Well this app was working but I had accidently uninstalled magisk and it detected unlocked boot loader and banned me for 2 days , it really costs a lot lol and my exams are coming so to be on a safe side and to prep using my phone (which I was avoiding ) I have locked the boot loader now . Using msm tool to go to a11 gives drm L1 , I have a question should I factory reset after going from a11->a13 and also will it keep L1 after reset ?

If using stock roms all the way to A13, which is the best way to go, you should be ok. You should be at L1 then.
Wildvine level is a complete crap shoot when you unlock the bootloader. Other threads are out there where many of us followed the exact same steps and some had L3 and some L1. I have yet to retain L1 once I unlocked the BL and rooted. Usually relocking it will put you back on L1. Some have reported having to relock it and reset the device. YMMV.
Had L1 after msm a11 , but it has now changed to L3 on C.66 . Any solution guys ?

You might try a factory reset. I know others going through updates and such said factory resetting helped solve the problem...
