ZTE A2017G1.3.0B04 back to Nougat.. (How) - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

As the title says, I want to revert back to Nougat is it possible, and how?
Thanks for any help.
My phone is : ZTE A2017G1.3.0B04

At least someone say ... "Hello"

Hello
Probably need to EDL flash the last released rollback file then do some formats from recovery before going back further but I'm no authority on this. Let someone experienced with modding A7 post with certainty.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/axon-7-edl-tool-flash-backup-restore-t3750759

No need for edl tool. Get Firmware rollback from ZTE Axon 7 support site https://www.ztedevices.com/en/support/detail?id=018CA84820E74A69B04A3D2BFCF6AC7E There you can get a firmware Android 8.0 retreat to Android 7.1 that let you downgrade back to Nougat, it's about 2.78 Gb or thereabouts.
Cheers

Upgrading from B170 to B313/Downgrading back to earlier version

Hi guys,
New to the forum here. I've flashed B170 a while back to get the most stable Lollipop edition, but I'd really like to try Marshmallow. The thing is, I can't figure out how to downgrade it back to B100/B121/B130 or to Upgrade it to B313. Is it possible to do either of those two things without an unlocked bootloader? There doesn't seem to be a way of flashing any packages on the phone, so I've sort of resigned myself to having to flash it via adb, but is this possible when I don't have an unlock code for the bootloader? Thanks for any help; I've really read through all the threads, but I couldn't come up with an answer.
Hi !
In order to upgrade to MM, you will have to downgrade to an upgradable version like B140. All the things you need are in the MM Upgrade topic of this forum.
In order to rollback from MM fo Lollipop, everything is explained in the same topic but you'll have to download a temporary system (B300) and then you'll be able to downgrade. Anyway, everything is in the MM Update topic.
I don't think you have to unlock bootloader to do all that but it would be easier because you would be able to use Honor 7 Multitool which is a software that does everything for you in no time
Good luck (MM version of the Honor 7 is awesome !)

Thanks for the reply! However, you can't use the B300 rollback on B170 (which is a Lollipop rom), can you? I've read the Marshmallow topic, and I was none the wiser - I can't seem to figure out if there's any way to get back to an upgradable version without flashing with the Honor tool (which requires an unlocked bootloader, non?). Sorry for the n00b-factor!

so many treads around here described the solution to do! Please use the search engine too
read following from there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64673136&postcount=74
and...
try to flash the B313 Rollback file first!
Maybe it will stop with "not successful!" nearly ~93% but THIS DOESN’T MATTER! a reboot should bring you to interim B300. Then you should be able to flash the B121 Full update out of your dload folder from your internal SD. If this work, you should be able to update to B313. You do not lost your personal data, but make a backup to be sure!

You can talk with Grarak on Twitter and ask him how to solve this issue and if it's possible to go back on marshmallow from emui5
already done so, zero response
Asked huawei for rollback link
Same problem here, so I emailed huawei for a rollback link. I'm on NRD90M so normally should be able to revert to original MM... No response so far...

And how can we go back to mm, is there a tool to do it? I have tried to flash mm but I'm not able because system and cust partition are bigger on stock mm firmwares, so once installed nougat we are not able to go back on mm. Basically they have to release a tool witch will automatically repartition system and cut partitions or release a mm firmware with smaller partitions....Oh sorry they didn't respond, I'm curious about they're response, if they will ever replay to you e-mail.

Well, thats whats the NRD90M build is made for, so you would be able to return to MM Its a build that should give the opportunity to have a rollback... However, what I have learned is that you need a specific updatefile to do this... This updatefile, does not exist (?)

Help me with my EDI-AL10C233B359

Hello Experts,
I have a Huawei Honor Note 8 which came from China originally with EMUI 4 and Android 5 (or 6?). I however managed to upgrade it to EMUI 5 and Android 7.
After upgrade the build changed to EDI-AL10C233B359 which is different from factory build when I purchased it.
When I heard about Android 8 Oreo, I decided to upgrade my phone again.
It's been a while now that I've been trying to update to Android 8 Oreo reading different guides. So far was only able to unlock bootloader.
Last attempt ended up to have to factory reset my phone but now my phone get stock in blue screen with Honor logo. I've both tried factory reset and recovery but none worked and again after completion of each i get stock in blue screen.
I appreciate any help with:
- how to fix it to get it up and running
- how I can update to Oreo?
Cheers,
Ray

Reboot into Erecovery and restore your system via Wifi.
The Official Oreo is out,after Restore B359 comes the Ota Update B528 Oreo

Hi @letschky
I have a similar question.
My honor note 8 is having the firmware EDI-AL10C233B359 ( my phone is rooted )
I didn't get the OTA to android Oreo or won't update in erecovery either.
From what I understand we have to change it AL10C00B359 to actually update to B528
Can you give the detailed steps to change from EDI-AL10C233B359 to EDI-AL10C00B359 ?
Can we change the region by flashing oeminfo and custombin for EDI-ALC00B359 in TWRP?
Can you share the oeminfo and custombin for EDI-ALC00B359?
Thanks,
Sam

Unlock Bootloader and Root Axon 7 on Oreo

I've just been given this phone.It's my first zte phone.Im a little familiar with unlocking and rooting as I came from The Honor 8 years ago.However everything about this phone is quite new to me. Would like some help with the different processes in order to maximize this phone's potential. I've looked here and there to learn more but most resources I've found were quite outdated. Furthermore I have some thermal issues with the phone im hoping to correct. So where and how do i start?
I would recommend to downgrade to Nougat first (if you are using stock ROM, there is a downgrade package by ZTE), then once in Nougat, use Axon 7 EDL tool:
