i am sorry but i have searched a lot but i couldn't unbrick my ZUK Z2, i flashed the Deodexed stock ROM and then the screen went all black with the LED glowing. If i press the power button i just see the ZUK logo and the screen goes black, i tried to boot it into fastboot but no luck. I somehow managed to get into the 9008 mode but while flashing with QFIL i get the sahara error saying unable to read header or something and with MiFlash i am getting "cannot read hello packet"
Any Help will be appreciated
EDIT:
The device has been fixed, i had to press the download button on the QFIL as soon as my phone boots into EDL mode.
did you flash through twrp? and if your bootloader if unlocked then you should have 5 sec bootloader placeholder from where u can reboot recovery . and if you are stuck into something different then it will be difficult to recover but possible. for sahara fail , play with settings in qfil like emmc, reset ,etc and try.And you can remove the port from device manager and retry if u r getting 9008 port.You should not get sahara fail. You will be get out of this easily just try things suggested. Your device is live as zuk logo is showing so dont worry.
And use latest qfil: http://www.androidbrick.com/download/download-latest-qualcomm-flasher-qfil-qpst-2-7-460/#
EDIT: Try this too-
Bootloader mode: shutdown state, press and hold the volume plus key + volume minus key, while the usb line connected to the computer until the release button.
Qualcomm QPST (9008 port) : shutdown state, press and hold the volume plus key, press the power button at the same time usb cable to connect the computer. This mode is a black screen state.
For recovery: press and hold the power key + the volume plus key + the volume down key until you release the release button.
Just buy DFC cable a.k.a Deep Flash Cable. The cable is same as you wire cable manualy

Onces that you are in 9008 mode you need to use ADB
"Adb reboot edl"
You are a lucky guy, i needed to conect grenn and black cable of the smartphone to put in 9008 mode

Have you both any idea about adb! Edl is itself 9008 mode also called download mode. Adb is debug bridge and it is used in OS to control it by this bridge from PC.

I think the bootloader is locked again, i can't boot into recovery. I tried the latest QPST and still getting unable to read packet header read 0 bytes error and Sahara Failed.

If bootloader is locked or unlocked , 9008 mode will work for sure. Also Use buttons combination to enter fastboot if u can then unlock and flash recovery from there .
To avoid this problem again, when you flash stock roms after using Custom Roms, make sure you format the System, data and cache partitions back to EXT4 format, since Stock firmware (even the moded ones) DOES NOT support any other System/Data/ Cache format.
After loading the bootloader, the phone will end with black screen and white led on. You just need to reboot on recovery again and advance format System/ Data/ Cache back to EXT4, connect the phone to the PC again, transfer the ROM file to the internal storage and make the Flash again...
Hope this help you
It was working fine till the failed OTA update.
After a failed OTA update the phone is dead completely.
Unable to boot, or to recovery or to bootloader etc
Attempted QFIL and even that is not working.
A tiny white light is on but nothing else.
Did anyone recover the phone from this problem?
Or is the phone gone forever?
try to disconnect the battery, then plug again and try qfil
Hi, Can you try pressing Power button for long till the phone vibrates
Keep the Power button pressed down for a good 30-40 seconds or until u feel a little vibration.

QFIL recognises the phone as Qualcom HS-USB Diagnostics 900E (Com3).
Is this correct?
I downloaded this Lenovo_ZUK_Z2_Plus_Indian_Firmware_V2.5.104_ST_by_Annabathina file?
In Qfil, i chose flat build and then only the above folder is shown and its shows two files with .elf extension as below.
prog_emmc_firehose_8996_ddr & prog_emmc_firehose_8996_lite
Which one should i use? Howlong the process goes? I tried both and i don't see any changes even after 15 minutes?
Is there a guide available?
Any links if possible?
Thanks
Plenty of guides if you Google it. Your phone is NOT dead and can be recovered but you'll lose your data after a qfil. Zuk z2 is pretty much impossible to brick
This is simple to solve, make a deepflash cable to enter in edl mode.

Flash a proper stock rom, if you have a Mi A2 Lite phone through EDL mode this will revert a normal brick.
EDL mode is ever accesed, it might happen that device doesn´t start any kind of transfering data process through EDL, this means that your device is hard bricked in a way that motherboard can´t receive data so it´s damaged at hardware level but to prove this you have to first install the proper Qualcomm HS-USB qdloader 9008 drivers and see how is detected through device manager, it could be detected as Diagnostics 9006 with a warning symbol and then you have to update drivers, restart pc and re-start the process.
If then of bypass properly all the failures that XiaoMi flash tool can produce doesn´t work then the damaged was more serious.
If you unlocked previously (I guess you did it) then you can enter to EDL from a power off by holding both volume buttons at same time that you connect with pc -you have to first start the app and load the image- if device enters to EDL mode but the tool is not recognicing it the led light will stay on BUT if you entered correctly to EDL mode and also the tool is properly recognicing it (so the drivers were well updated) then the led light will flash intermitently.
At time to connect to pc in the mentioned steps you have not to receive any vibration just a sound from your pc.
In few words search in Google : test point mi a2 lite and do it

How is detected under device manager? qualcomm-HS-USB qdloader 9008? Also what about behaviour of led light, it stays on all the time or it blinks?
Edit: Now I read your previous post, Led light has to blink, this is correctly connected, see under device manager how it is detected.

Ok, Behaviour changes depending on what rom you actually are, it´s mean that now you have flashed some partitions from Miui rom (led light will stay off) at least it´s being detected.
Things that you can try:
- Move the rom to the same folder where XiaoMi flash is.
- Rename the folder as short as better like "xiaomi" without quotes.
- Put your Windows in "Test Mode", restart to changes take effects.
- Switch to other version of the tool, it worked for me latest from here https://xiaomifirmware.com/downloads/miflashpro/
- Try with other rom version.

Don't worry about led behaviour, your device will turn a bit weird cause you flashed a wrong firmware, the important here is that it's recognised by pc. What about the steps, tried?
Today I Bricked My LG820Qm
I was updating my Lg g8 using LG UP, When the Process on 64% my PC power off

Try entering download mode with phone disconnected from USB cable.
Also try to see if it gets recognized by LG-UP or by LG Bridge. These 2 softwares don't need download mode to be able to flash, just the phone to be recognized on some PORT.
Try also factory reset hard menu. Also try switching between Slot A and Slot B. There is also this backup method. Phone is not dead on one of those slots.
If nothing works (but slot a slot b should 100% work) , wait for the firehose, it's just around the corner. That will restore the phone back 100%.
For more info search v50thinq on telegram app. :good:
I can t get to download as it freezes and without the USB cable it doesn't even try and enter. I appreciate the recommendations. I was thinking of the a/b seit hbut without the use of fastboot I am at a loss of how to switch between the two as I thought the system chose and the switch happened upon rebooting once a system had been selected ie as in turning the unit off after loading the os set a flag to go to the opposite system upon completing the inftframs and boot sequence.

So, if the device, as you say, lost power during an update like that, then almost assuredly you have at least one, if not numerous corrupted partitions.
And, it's specific partitions on the device that allow it to enter download mode. One of these most know about or have heard of is the laf partition. But other have to be there also for it to work, I don't remember exactly what the others off the top of my head, but that info is easily found.
The key thing you need (or any others commenting same prob), is to be able to enter EDL mode and have qfil installed and recognizing the device. If you can get that far, it would be easy to find the correct partitions you could flash with qfil and then immediately go from qfil to download mode.
Many many people have done this. Just get qfil set up (see guides section) and get the device recognized. that takes some effort but it's def doable.
Hello there. So, I hard bricked my OnePlus 9 Pro probably - stuck in EDL, tried all the MSM tools (EU, Global, India etc) and no luck. It randomly turned off and never turned back on. No fastboot, no recovery. Just EDL.
What I did was:
Flashed it a bunch of times with MSM tool
Tried different cables, ports and hubs (I have intel Laptop)
Always recognized as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008
Noticed that it only flashed the a partitions so I did this trick: launched MSM, clicked verify and then clicked on the radio buttons for SMT and Upgrade mode a couple of times until I finally selected the Upgrade mode
Flashed again, now It indeed flashed both partitions and it took almost double the time
I always choose lite firehose because my phone disconnects every few seconds so with lite firehose it has time to make the handshake and begin the flash
Still, nothing. Can't get it out of EDL. Any help? Any suggestions for service?

Now that specific MSM build is new to me so I'm running to test and will report back! Thanks for this
I have had this issue before on my OnePlus 9/ not a pro/ . I tried reinstalling drivers and restarted my PC and then I was able to install via MSMtool without errors and without having to use lite firehouse.
The driver you need is called qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 you can find a fix on the net.
... I can only recommend trying different MSM tools until you find one that works. As some just don't seem to recognize your device that's having errors... One more thing I encountered was, plugging in the device at the right time in EDL mode works wonders you really have to get this part right for the MSMtool to detect your device correctly. Especially if you're hard bricked/ black screen.
I've also had this issue before and accidentally ran into it again yesteday. I'm currently waiting for the battery to drain. It's been a while although after the phone is able to power off I believe on reboot/(plugging it in) fastboot and the button sequences should be available to use msm. I found before that there was a particular way to do it with the timing, and needed the hs-usb qdloader 9008 driver.

You don't need to drain battery, only need to make sure phone is booting correctly into EDL mode. Probably better to have a full battery.

Sorry for my reply, I see now that was for a different blacksreen issue with fastboot. It's definitely better to have full battery if in EDL. However I was able to get it flashed just now leaving device manager open to see the state of the connection. I'm on IO but the global msm tool did not work so using the win 7 ver. of the India (lemonadep_22_I.07_210412.op) with firehose lite, India selected from dropdown. I am not sure all of what was necessary but with msm open I held all buttons until I see it triggered the reboot in device manager then immediately disconnected the device, let go of power button and reconnected holding just both the volume buttons and hit enum then start.
Try using indian version of MSM for the 9 (not the pro). After MSM, you'll have weird dpi issues, skip setup, download ota, all will be gucci after.
Had problems with Indian version, went back to TMO stock...just me

You should definitely update your windows,.
To enter EDL Mode
Hold
Volume UP +
volume DOWN -
At the same time wait a 7-10 seconds before
You do not have to press power button infact that ruins the process.. plug in cord at the exact time frame as given. If correct drivers installed on PC you will get a sound or a notification of connection proceed flash as soon as connection is received.
