You can use a software called nokia software updater 4.3.2 which from experience restores windows phone 8 on your phone. Install Nokia software updater on your pc and follow instructions. Just be sure not to update your 920 after the restore is complete.

Bro, thanks for your reply, but that software from Nokia is no longer working, It says it cannot connect to server. So, what to do now?

You need the Windows Phone Recovery Tool, not the Nokia Software Updater.

But, Windows phone recovery tool will only downgrade to windows phone 8.1, not windows phone 8. Did you try it?

Why do you want to use WP8.0 instead of WP8.1 or Windows 10 Mobile?

Let's address that problem rather than trying to install an old and unsupported OS.

Unsupported -isn't the same case with wp8.1.
And as for op - if you can find any wp8.0 rom on the internet flash it using wpinternals . May be from navifirm plus . I remember a post listing Lumia 920 french wp 8.0 rom in XDA forums.
