How to install old OS

[JenaK]

Hi all,

I really don’t like the new OS (Fairphone OS 17.08.1) and really wish I hadn’t updated. How can I install an old OS please? I have tried downloading an old OS from the website but when the phone goes to restart I am confronted with the android man and a red exclamation mark with an error message!! Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Good luck.
