Using this tool i can go to MM version and can upgrade to S251. However after installing twrp and flashing custom rom, it goes to bootloader
Make sure you do the following steps coming from Stock Rom:
change the file system of data partition to ext4. then reboot while being in recovery to recovery. (Use the Reboot->Recovery Option you can find there)
Doing this will also wipe internal storage, so make sure you backup your stuff.
Then you wipe ONLY system,cache,dalvik_cache.
Flash Custom Rom, Gapps and if you want root either Magisk/SuperSu.
Wipe dalvik and cache. Reboot.
First boot may take up to 5mins at most.

Also when changing custom roms make sure to never wipe vendor, because you might lose mobile data while doing so.

EXTRA: A so called Clean Flash is referring to the following partitions being wiped.
- System Partition (AND NOT SystemImage!! Never touch that)
- Dalvik Cache
- Cache
- Data (Excluding Internal Storage)

I flashed this as per instructions.
Admittedly I am trying anything including this to get my real IMEI's back as I flashed/erased too much at the beginning.
The IMEI's from another person's TWRP recovery were ther, but after flashing this, the IMEI's have gone again.
Also, the very first OTA update sticks at 24% and then says update failed.

My p2 was bricked and , stuck in boot loop. I followed the above instructions, 10 mins into it , it booted with mm version, the same version when i bought and booted for 1st time. It was like a new phone to me.

So i assume if one has upgraded to noughat and want to downgrade but is worried he might brick his device, one can take a back up and try this tool. It works flawless.

No harm in trying this one if ur p2 can boot up mate. Give it a shot. Good luck

Cheers :)
Bootlooped means only light appeared for u?
