Downgrading My Phone's System

| Alright, so I updated my phone (or should I say my phone updated itself), and there are so many bugs and things I'm just getting pissed at.

So what I did was I went to the official site, downloaded the firmware for the phone, as in its first release.

Now, what I'm wondering is if there's any threat doing this.

>Are there going to be risks in like security or something?

To clarify, I'm downgrading Android 8.1.0 back to 7.1.2.
There's just too many negatives to the update.

in theory yes, because you'll have older security patches, in practice it doesn't really matter
Downgrade might require full wipe, meaning all the data on the phone will be lost, so make sure to back up everything.


| To downgrade my pixel, you have to unlock the bootloader so you can flash firmware, to unlock the bootloader you have to wipe the phone so I'd say >>406583 is likely correct
