I have tried this method. Maybe this is not the case.

I want to know which partition (system? Boot? EFS?) Google services will be in? Is it not brushed into the system?

Maybe I should prepare a picture to explain clearly.

cannot downgrade from Oreo with Sept/Oct Security Patch

I cannot downgrade my nokia 8 TA-1052 with slot A: Sept SP, Slot B: Oct SP.

- the method in this post: long waiting in the processing UI (20min), after I reboot my phone manually and nothing changed.

- the method in the guide using OSTLA 6.0.4: error message (detail), and after reboot, nothing changed.

Could someone help me with that?

Finally rooted by using "fastboot flash boot [pre-rooted img]" on slot A (with september SP) other than "fastboot boot".

A direct flashing to the boot partition worked but the simulation no, it was strange.:confused:

[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] smallerxie:
Sorry but I want to stop this no-sense discussion. I suggest you to read our conversation again. In fact I really wonder if you can read English without problem. (Personally, If I didn't understand what a post says, normally I read it again and again to comprehend before replying to it)

P.S. (1) your link does not mention what I just replied (#232).

(2) I just wanted to volunteer my experience about how I finally rooted my device, I cannot understand why it means I am lazy. If you think you know much more than others, please share your experience to help the others, rather than posting your useless criticism.

(3) I read some of your history replies, it seems you love whining as "I cannot understand why so many people here are stupid". OK, If this makes you happy, go on. But remember that nobody likes unprovoked blaming.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] czupyt:
Ha, wondering if I can read without a problem (which is obviously offensive from your side) sounds funny from you. If you do not know what I mean, you may google. But back to the topic, post #223 - older one, you mentioned OST gave you error. Nice feedback, if you do not know yet, error code always means something, would be nice to add this as well. Next based on post #232 obviously you had problems with booting to patched img. And flashing helped. And seems you were suprised. And info was already known. And the name simulating...man...booting not simulating (referring to your impression that I cannot read english)

And of course if you read forum, you would notice that I tried to help every time I could. But seeing repeating questions about things that are already explained...
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] smallerxie:
1. For the OST LA error message (in version 6.0.4), this thread is not about OST LA version 6.0.4 so I gave my feed back about the error code in the corresponding thread (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77970981&postcount=6), it is not a logical choice to avoid confusion? and for the moment there is no solution. If you can help, many users count on you.

2. Yes I was quite surprised when I realized that "booting to" (what was called "simulation" in my latest reply) a patched image didn't work while a direct "flashing" patched image finally worked. Personally I prefer not to directly flash a patched boot image without a trial by "booting to" it, is there a problem? You said "And info was already know", could you please tell me where I could find it? What's more If you can explain me the cause of the different results I will be happy to know.

3. For the term "simulating", you laughed at me because you used "booting to (patched img)" or "booting (not simulating)". Maybe the term "simulating" is not accurate, According to the help document of fastboot, one should say "Download and boot kernel from RAM". I am just a user other than a developer, and I am sorry if this term is confusing. However it seems that the word "simulating" is easy to be understood in the context "A direct flashing to the boot partition worked but the simulation no" in my original reply. At least you understood what I meant without problem.

So you think it is necessary to laugh at the others for these kinds of things?
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] czupyt:
Ok stop this, it is off topic, if you would like to talk more, I invite you to PM, if not, have a nice day. And I am not laughing, you were the one that insulted me and my english skills. Think before you write. I do not have time to search for you. I unlocked my bootloader in August, and since than I experienced many things, including not able to boot after September. Somehow I managed to find answers.

Regarding error, writing "I have error" without error code is as good as answer for such thing like "Here it works". Says nothing. But nice you gave feedback in Nokia 7 Plus forum.

Once again have a nice day and still you are welcome to PM me if you want to continue.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] smallerxie:
OK let's stop it.

Anyhow, it was you who started the conflict with an offensive reply ,if you read #232 and #233 again.

I am not native English speaker so I won't feel insulted if someone complains of my poor English. I complained about your English because it seemed that you didn't understand what I meant (c.f. #232 and #233).

I cannot understand why you continue blaming me of not giving the error code, even after my explication. I said that I HAD given the details in another thread (for SOT LA V6.0.4) in order to avoid confusion because it is not the version used in this thread.

To finish, we are on the Nokia 8 board in the xda-developers forum, if it was what you wanted to mean by "my feedback 'in Nokia 7 Plus forum' ".

Hello brother, I managed to make my nokia 8 get recognized by fastboot, any solution to flash it? because I've tried before all OST solutions with no success, and when I type:

fastboot flash boot "boot.img"

to flash the boot img from your GDrive or from the unpacked nb0 version I get:

sending 'boot' (65536 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.554s]

Request for key, officially or not officially (if you still on July Security patch).
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SalahGFX:
Can I get some little bit of help on how to do that, because I'm really new be to be honest
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] czupyt:
Like I said, request a key officially or not. Officially, you must be I guess at least on September Security Patch, unofficially, you must be maximum on July Security Patch. As soon as you get the key, than:

1. Enter Fastboot mode and check whether you device is seen in fastbood by command:

fastboot devices

2. If your phone is detected, use this command:

fastboot flash unlock path_to_key\UnlockFile.bin

3. When it is flashed, use command:

fastboot oem unlock-go

4. Unlock critical

fastboot flash unlock path_to_key\UnlockFile.bin
fastboot flashing unlock_critical

5. Be aware that you phone will be wiped out, and all your apps etc will be gone.

Have no idea if at the moment it is possible to unlock critical using official way, people claimed here that they had problems. For sure you will find answers in Nokia 8 section in XDA.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SalahGFX:
Thank you so much for the quick reply!

The thing is I can't request the key officially since my nokia 8 is broken so I cannot install the bootloaderunlocker.apk as I said my nokia 8 ta-1004 is stuck at download mode for about 4 months right now.

About the unofficial bootloader unlocking I have no idea to be honest.

As far as I remember, we bought code in same place. At the bottom of the guide, there was a workaround for people already been on August patch. It was just fastboot commands to change slot. For me that worked. And than after switching to July, i was able to use unofficial method.

Hi, im hoping someone can help.

I tried flashing my Nokia 8 with this to restore the stock state to be able to OTA, yes my bl is unlocked - but through the unnoficial method before official, ost la picks my phone up, i go through all the process as said, but i get stuck on "reflash service bootloader" (3 bars) for more than 2000s, when i unplugged it hoping it wouldnt brick anything, nothing changed and my old fw is working fine.

I tried the work around method of downgrading ost unpacking the firmware and repacking, but just says the sw is damaged after repack,

Any advise on what else i can try? TA-1012 model, thanks!

Hi all, could you help with this issue? My dads phone, Nokia 8, TA-1004, suddenly went to "download mode". Basically he said that when he pulled phone from his pocket, it was in "download mode". Weird, I know.

After pretty furious searching, I've found this thread. First, I tried all the buttons pressing tricks, but the phone simply will not exit from the "download mode". So, I figured I have to do a flash, to get phone up and running again. Do you agree that flashing is the only way to save to phone? It still has warranty though.

I tried to follow the op's instructions in page 1, but from later posts it seems that phone has to be bootloader unlocked before firmware can be put to the phone. And, to unlock the phone I need to run this app from Nokia to get that code for unlocking, right? How can I proceed, when the phone is stuck in "download mode"?

Thanks for all the help!
