NOTE:

This is an OTA package which contains payload.bin file. You can sideload the package through stock recovery by following method


or

You can extract the payload.bin file using payload dumper and flash using Nokia Tool or pack the extracted contents as a zip file, then flash using Nokia Flash Tool (NFT)

Nokia 7.2
hello! thank you for the tutorial

this seems like the only method to downgrade to be able to unlock the bootloader.. unfortunately the boot.img link is dead, do you have it somewhere? would you mind reuploading?
