Identifying the bootloader on my Device A2017U - ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion

I have never unlocked my bootloader or rooted. Currently, I am running stock b32 Nougat.
However, I had switched to Official Oreo update from ZTE for few days and then switched back to Nougat coz of the White Palette everywhere and battery life.
But now when I go to Stock Recovery, it shows Android 8.0.0 but I am running Nougat. Does that mean I am running the Oreo Bootloader or Nougat Bootloader, if at all I plan to root/unlock bootloader? are bootstack and bootloader are independent of each other?

New Bootloader with Marshmallow

Hi guys,
i have the new bootloader installed with a custom rom on android 7.1
is it possible to go back to Marshmallow or do i need to downgrade the bootloader aswell?
thx
Yes it is possible. I don't think you have to downgrade bootloader to go back to marshmallow.
You can simply flash any MM custom rom that supports new bootloader, coz many MM custom roms support new bootloader. So you have to see the description before flashing any MM custom rom.
OOS MM support new bootloader.

S5 Verizon PB1 unlocked bootloader

Hello all
I can't seem to find marshmallow firmware and bootloader for the s5 verizon , I need PD1 bootloader and firmware in order to boot a custom rom (SkiesROM_v2_N7_BPL2_S5_Final) , I also have twrp installed.
I'm currently running resurrection remix nougat rom still using pb1 bootloader .
Thanks

just to check when upgrading/downgrading

Hi guys
I have looked around and am on MM for my H850 and fancy trying Fulmics on N. As I understand if I wish to downgrade from N to MM I just need to flash boot and modem for MM and then MM Rom. But my question is this. If I make a complete nandroid backup of MM in TWRP, can I just restore all these imgs over a N Rom to downgrade to MM, without needing to flash boot and modem stock img?
Thanks
Anyone?
Downgrade from 7.0 to 6.0.1 for the LG G5 H850
Downgrade from 7.0 to 6.0.1 for the LG G5 H850
downgrade with autoprime metod.
By the way, why You need to do that, is that for xposed module? Or something else?
Hi thanks for the link to autoprime method. I just wanted to know if a nandroid backup would negate the necessity to flash boot and modem img when restoring to MM.
I have found alternatives to most xposed modules and so fancied trying a custom rom on N ; I would instal a custom rom on MM, but none appear to be supported any longer

Please help me get from stock kitkat (sgp311) to RR nougat

Long story short, I soft bricked my device trying to flash Resurrection Remix nougat. I got the tablet back to stock kitkat with flash tool. I unlocked the bootloader.
Now I'm in the dark about how I re-root and get to a version of twrp that will work with nougat. It's been so long since I messed with this device I don't remember what I did to get it to stock lollipop with an old version of twrp. I can't really find any straightfoward tutorials on xda.
Thanks.

OS downgrade?

Hello! My F700K is currently running android 8.0.0. The other day I saw that i can download the nougat version firmware from the lg website and ive been wondering if i can downgrade the OS using the LGUP program? Or does the oreo version have an antirollback feature that can brick my device if i do it? Thanks!
Not sure about F700K but I did with my H850 using LG UP, no problems at all with downgrading from oreo.
