Downgrading from One UI 7/8 to One UI 6.1

[Andyaus1]

Is there any way to downgrade from One UI 7/8 to One UI 6.1? Sick of the battery drain

There are ways but i wouldn't recommend doing it.... there should be a new patch update in the meantime I suggest using powersave mode

If you must, one way to try is to back up using both Samsung and Google options (Settings, scroll left to Backups). Do these snd do a factory reset. Then use update until you get to UI 6.1. Note you will lose some passwords and settings and even layout. In Backups use Restore optoons to recover your preferences. Is it worth it to encounter all these little problems. Search Google carefully in case firmware is a problem.
