How to get from nougat/Emui 5 to Pi? - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

So my phone is downloading L09C34B171, I just got it 2nd hand and unlocked the bootloader.
I've seen some conflicting things on using emui 8 or 9, I want to install a rom like lineage or RRv7 with magisk but apparently i need to flash everything from emui 8, so will my phone be updated to this before going to the emui 9.1?
thanks for any advice, keen to get some sweet custom OS so emui can go away.

I believe you need to have a phone on PIE to use RRv7. I flashed RRv7 to my Xiaomi Mi 8 lite and it's so much better than what was on it before. I just flashed PIE on my mate 9 yesterday and it's great. Read the thread below and you'll see how me and another guy did it. My bootloader is still unlocked so I imagine I can just flash twrp for PIE and then flash RRv7 which I'm thinking about doing. Not sure that I see that much difference is 8.0 and 9.0 but it runs fine.

Brand new 7 Pro in box and want to root. Update stock rom to Android 10 first or not?

Hi,
I just received my brand new 7 Pro from Oneplus today. I assume it will come with Pie out of the box but once i put my sim card it will most likely want to OTA update to Q . Should I resist updating this and install TWRP and Magisk first on the stock phone? or Update and then try to root?

Update to Q and go from there.
Any way should be fine.
I chose to root then update and flash magisk a/b.
Worked out fine for me.
Just got mine a week ago, updated to 10 first then root/twrp/xxx magisk rom, smurf kernel, all before restoring all my stuff. Everything went perfectly. Fricken love this phone.
I just got one OP7 today as well.. I had an update but not to Android 10. I'm still stuck on 9 for whatever reason....

Realme 5i , Donwgrading Older Version of System

Hi , Is there anyway for downgrade system to RMX2030EX_11_A.20 from android 10 update? I am now running
RMX2030EX_11.C.44 which is latest update of european/turkish version of phone.
I also want to downgrade because the phone is just terrible after the Android 10 upgrade. I also live in Turkey . I bought the phone it was great with the Android 9 but after I got the Android 10 it started glitching the colors are off and some futures are really bad anyone have a way to downgrade to Android 9 ?
I finally managed to downgrade my system. I used in depth test of realme x2 , you can find it realme 5i community in telegram. But I have a problem, my fingerprint and security options working while bootloader is unlocked, but if I try to lock bootloader again this time security options not working both face rec. and fp. How to solve this?

you can try this link for downgrading but the rom is for India. You can give it a try because some people managed to successful downgrade to Android Pie from 10.
Can anyone do it and how is it done?

Has anyone succesufully downgraded MIUI Android 11 to MIUI Android 10?

I'm not sure if ARB protection is active as my friend wants to flash custom ROM. He's unfortunately on Android 11 so I can't risk his phone.
I've done it and nothing bad happened. Just had to format data afterwards to exit the bootloop. Went from V12.0.6.0.RJGEUXM (A11) to V12.0.7.0.QJGMIXM (A10) to be specific. The A11 one was missing a few switches in the settings menu that I use. I belive there's no Xiaomi ARB protection on POCO X3. You can also read this if you're not convinced yet.

I informed more yesterday about ARB and i thought that authorized account is something that only certified Xiaomi servicers could use. But that's not the case. Thanks for confirmation.
Did you flash a recovery / zip ROM or a fastboot one? A have just received an X3 NFC with Android 11 / MIUI 12.0.6 , and realized in 5 mins that Android 11 is not my cup of tea. It screws up my Nova + Fluid NG combo like hell - hate it.

My friend didn't flashed it yet as he has trouble with laptop recognizing Poco X3, hence no unlocked bootloader.

No worries, in the meantime flashed 12.0.8 using MiFlash - now everything runs fine.

Downgrade LOS 19.1 to stock Android 9?

Hello, I would like to downgrade LineageOS 19.1 to stock Android 9. My software version, based on what imei check says, is "kane_reteu-user9PSA29.97-37c8dbrelease-keys". And my country is BG, if it matters.
Nevermind, I figured it out.
Hello! Got this phone since yesterday and been trying roms and co. I'd like to downgrade too or get back to stock. And i can't get a clue ab out those stock-firmware-filenames. Could anyone enlight me how to find the right one? Its a -3, EU device.
Nevermind, figured it out. Getvars ftw
I tried to flash back the original version https://www.getdroidtips.com/stock-rom-motorola-xt1970-3-firmware/ but the phone got hot and choppy when charging. After installing the Pixel Experience 12 Plus, the mobile works well. You need to find a stock version for your mobile on the net, there are several of them.

Question Downgrade A53 (A536B) from android 13 to 12

Hey guys all good?
I got my hands on an A53 already on Android 13 (U.I 5.1), then I unlocked the bootloader, rooted, magisk working but then I decided to downgrade from 13 to 12 because of a few things
I tried via Odin (13.14.4 and 13.12.7) and both didn't work the first odin it fails the flashing and the second pass but it didn't flash the whole thing just reset the phone
any idea? or I'm now stuck with Android 13?
Cheers
From what I can find, Odin supposedly won't allow a downgrade if the boot loader version is lower.
That's just what people seem to say about Samsung devices and downgrading. I've never tried it and never will. Would immediately use multiple OS versions however if Android actually supported dual booting. Its fantastically messed up that it doesn't.
Not sure if TWRP will. Didn't look that one up. You didn't bring that one up but it might be a way to do it.

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking something about that too. Not that the bootloader is lower but that it was modified (root) i guess
Unfortunately TWRP is not compatible yet with Android 13 UI 5.1 at least accordingly to this topic
So i guess I'm stuck for now

You could flash a GSI image, but I guess that wouldn't be OneUI anymore
