I'm curently running the latest stock rom and I wanted to downgrade to firmware 10.0.13.0 so I could try some custom roms that don't support the latest stock Q.

How do I do that? I've seen a lot of threads talking about dowgrading from Pie to Oreo but still haven't seen anything on the process of going from Q to Pie.

Downgrading to pie is d same as loading the os using miflash. U jus go to fastboot and run d process or enter EDL mode & run d process.

What I've done:
Install adb drivers
unlock bootloader(fastboot oem unlock) in platform tools
I used this process:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pjs5wakBCg&t=
*use mi 2 lite files but same process*
download mi flash tool( install in drive C:)
go fastboot mode
download and extract .tgz fastboot images you want from here:

then flash using mi flash tool.
Thank you! I didn't know it was the exact same process.
Just donwgraded and I'm now using a custom rom, everything seems to be working well!
