How to downgrade from Pie to Oreo WITHOUT ROOT on Samsung A8 2018 - General Questions and Answers

My fiance accidentally upgraded her OS to pie and hates it because of the look & permissions required. She wants to go back to oreo but can't root because she plays pokemon go.
When we do this, she'll be installing an app I paid $5 for to permanently remove system upgrade requests on Samsung devices.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Samsung j7 2017 (SM-J730F, normal version) root with custom rom LineageOS and knox

Hello everyone,
I'm new to this community and I own a galaxy j7 2017 phone with Android 7.0 running on it. As we know the j7 2017 pro will get the oreo uptade I wonder if the classic version will have it. 5I've searchd a lot about this and it seems that it will, big question is when). So I wonder, if not, would it be possible to root and flash the phone with a unofficial LineageOS rom running oreo without breaking the knox warranty bit and if there is any side effect if it's broken (like banking app impossible to use, issue while charging the phone,...)
Thanks

Amazon Music deny rooted devices now [Android (Cyanogenmod 11) ]

I have an old Smartphone : Samsung Galaxy S I9003.
I only use it to listen to Amazon Music.
On the device Cyanogenmod 11 is instatlled.
Since some Days, I got an message from Amazon-Music (inside of the app), that the Song could not be played, because the device is rooted.
Before some weeks there where no Problem with the same device, so it seems amazon has added this "feature" to his App now.
I've tried to install an older Version of Amazon-Music-App (7.9.2), but the same Message appears.
Question: Is there a way to downgrade the Amazon-Music-App, to make it work with the device again, or may they use Codepush, or some Kind of Server-Checking technology to figure out if my device is rooted.
If Downgrade is possible, since which version was the "root-checker" implemented in amazon-music-app?

Can I get LineageOS 16 (or a more updated Android ROM) for SM-J100VPP?

I have a Samsung Galaxy J1 (SM-J100VPP), and I want to update it from Android Lollipop. The only ROM I found that might be usable was for the SM-J100H, and I don't know whether it compatible or not. Does anyone know of a ROM (preferably LineageOS 16) I can use for it?

Huawei P10 - unable to update the firmware

Hello guys, I am unable to update my system and am stuck at EMUI 5.1
I have tried everything I found but I am (most importantly) stuck at unlocking the bootloader and accroding to this topic (https://www.xda-developers.com/huawei-honor-request-bootloader-unlock-code/) I might be too late to do so ..
When I try to update it downloads the update, seems like installing but when the phone restarts it ask me to connect to wifi but when I try to do so it keeps searching for WIFI with no result ...
I dunno what to do else but really want to wipe all data and install the fresh EMUI 8 .. what are my possibilities? Is there any way to force flash data (like format C .. I am an IT guy but not experienced with droids ...
thx for any help - this is really desperate
PS: if any info is needed please let me know.. will provide as much as possible
EDIT: I have found this https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/how-to/emui-unlock-site-page-t3779658/page2 ... I tried to ask HUAWEI support to provide me with me unlock code ... we will see
EDIT2: they already contacted me from H support but claimed that they have no rights to generate the code anymore (since July 24, 2018) ..
What are my other possibilities? I have an un-update-able phone now and update is prompting every week (which is quite bothering already ..
