Pie boot screen "verify mode is set to disabled" - Moto Z2 Force Questions & Answers

Hi Mates,
I have 1789-06 variant with unlocked bootloader.
I installed the pie version via flashall, all were OK.
but upon rebooting the splash screen prompted for "verity mode is set to disabled".
no matter what I tried, all failed - the phone reboots to the fastboot screen.
then I was wondering BP Tools mode where on the screen it was showing "disabled".
somehow I enabled and attempted to reboot - the screen went total black!
is there anything that can revive the phone?
thanks in advance for the support.
cheers.

Connect to your pc and simply try holding the pwr btn for a minute to see if it will boot, if not, try holding vol dwn + pwr for a minute to see if that will boot it. Listen and look to see if your pc is detecting the phone at all while you try. Also you can check your device manager to see if it is showing there.

Unfortunately, the black screen has been a bit of a fiasco with pie updates, especially for those who have tried pie on variants not intended for the firmware. No solution has been found yet, but I haven't heard of it happening by enabling bp tools. Connect to a 2.0 port and double check your device manager. Look for unknown devices, hs usb 9008, and try various button combos while trying to power and watch your device manager for new devices. In short you might be SOL, but if you're lucky and your pc recognizes the phone you might be able to blankflash.

ok thanks.
actually, my phone was set to get the OTA.
the OTA s'mpy did not install without any reason saying "something went wrong".
anyways, the strange thing is that all happened after the BP tools thing.
I will see what I can do with USB 2.0.
this whole thing does not seem to be a brick, right?

Actually it kind of does. On oreo, it seemed the worst that would happen is you would soft birck. Basically a black screen but the phone would connect to the pc as a 9008 device and you could blankflash your way back to good. Since pie, something is happening and the exact reason hasn't been pinpointed. Usually it's those who have tried to flash pie for a variant it wasn't intended for. Some have lost their baseband and are still waiting for a solution to that, and a couple have full on bricked. At least there hasn't been any sign of life nor a way to do anything about it. Granted the bp tools thing is weird, but maybe a dav will pick up on this and maybe understand just what is happening and what is causing it.

Yeah, the whole blankflash hinges on the fact that it is already in edl mode, but considering your circumstance, it is most likely dead like the few others. As of now there is no known way to revive them besides a jtag (untested and not confirmed) and you would need to tear your phone down to even try that, which isn't a viable option for most. Sorry I can't offer anything more.

I will not bother for JTAG as it is - as you have rightfully said - untested.
my phone is still under warranty and I will try a replacement or a refund then.

What did you do to boot your device.. Even mine is bootlooped.

[Q] Nexus 7 Hardbricked?!

Okay, so recently installed the 4.4.2 OTA on my completely stock nexus 7 (unrooted, bootloader still locked).
Tried connecting to my PC via bluetooth (for headset) and noticed that it wasnt working (was working on 4.4), so decided that maybe a reboot would fix the problem.
And now the tablet doesn't boot. Completely unresponsive, no charging icon etc. either. Tried holding down the power button, power and +/- vol for 20+ secs to no avail. Connecting the tablet to my laptop makes windows update search for the QHSUSB_DLOAD driver. From what I've read this is supposed to be some sort of hardbrick?
I left the tablet completely stock and haven't done any tinkering except use the Wugfresh toolkit to do a backup (which only needed USB debugging on). Also the battery was definitely 60%+ before I attempted rebooting.
Help please? This is completely out of the blue seeing as I never even unlocked the bootloader or anything?
Please help!

Gone through both of them, tried the steps in the first one but I cant get to fastboot, still a blank screen and QHSUSB_DLOAD in device manager. The second one mentions in it's FAQ that the bootloader must be unlocked before using it? Mine was locked so I guess I cant use that method?

Hmm, well, last ditch would be to charge it overnight, and hold the power button down for several minutes, if that doesn't do it, you may have to just use the warranty.

Alright so still no dice. Warranty is out of the question because I bought an imported version off eBay before it was officially available on Google play here in India.
From what I've understood this may be recoverable. People have made fixes for some HTC devices etc. Basically if someone could makes a "QCN" backup from a working device I may be able to restore the bootloader using the Qualcomm drivers. Or would this tool be of any use?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308546
Not too familiar with all this low level flashing stuff - so need a second opinion. Will try again today evening, leaving it unplugged this time.

Yeah, I don't know much about that either, sorry, I'm not going to be much help there.
Ok, am I the first person with this problem? When the device is plugged in to the PC and I try holding down the buttons (tried almost every combo I could think of) the disconnect/connect sound plays and the tablet is re-detected by device manager as QHSUSB_DLOAD. Im extremely disappointed that this can happen even without screwing around with the system.
The warranty card with the tablet seems to imply international warranty although not specifically stated, it's from the US, so would taking it to an Asus center in India be of any use?

Only works for a couple of HTC devices, tried asking in the IRC channel and was told that it wont help at all. Held the power button for over a minute nothing happens, still the same in device manager although I can tell it restarts back into the same mode from the connect/disconnect sound.

Downloaded them, I think a USB driver is needed for the tablet to show up as a COM port, I've tried a few drivers but QPST Configuration was unable to connect. Even if it were able to connect I dont know what to do after that, it seems that some device-specific hex/qcn/xml files are needed and this is the mode the manufacturer uses when flashing the bootloader. Does this mean that my bootloader somehow magically corrupted itself?!

That's exactly the thing, it doesnt get into fastboot mode or anything, I assume you need a working bootloader to be able to boot fastboot? If it was in fastboot I would have attempted this already.
Anyway the seller says that the item is covered under a 1 year international warranty, thats my only chance now I guess....
The thing that concerns me is that I was completely stock, locked bootloader and unrooted. Only installed the official OTA updates (no sideloading either).
For those who are interested - I finally had time to drop by the service centre. They replaced the battery and motherboard (it was under warranty). I was expecting them to do some magic with QPST or something though.
The same has just happened to me, but I'm out of luck, the warranty has expired.
Did anyone have managed to fix it with the QPST drivers?
thanks.

[Q] help, phone won't turn on after flashing 20b

Hi, I tried to flash 20b through twrp tonight.
I did factory reset, then flashed the bootstack, then flashed the system. But after that, my phone won't power on. I tried to remove the battery, holding power button for a long time, or power+volumn down.
The phone just does not respond at all. Can anybody help? Thanks!

take the battery out and put it back in and try to power it on. Repeat a few times, if that doesn't help we'll try other things.

when I had that problem I figured out that it was the battery that was making the phone act weird. Since LG sent me another battery when they had the promotion I used the other spare and that fixed it for me.
This happens right after I flashed the new system, I doubt it is the batter problem. If I plugged into the computer it still won't power on.
(If I remove the battery and plug into computer, the screen of the phone does show some symbol, probably regarding missing memory).
Let me try to see if I use kdz flash to reinstall the system. Thanks for the help.

This is why You don't flash the boot chain unless you absolutely must. I was running 20B with the old boot chain (other than rpm, that was updated) and it ran just fine. If you get a bad flash on the boot chain your sol.

PixelXL bricked

Hi, sadly i just bricked my Pixel XL
ive installed newest system image trough fastboot, installed twrp rc1, super su, and after an reboot ive installed the ElementalX Kernel for 7.1.1., ive rebooted (all was fine).
Then ive remembered to see slot a and b in twrp restart,
ive loaded twrp, it was current Slot A, then ive hit Slot B and rebooted, since then my phone is just black, nothing on screen only sounds when on usb, like connected (dimdimdim).
tried already to hit different power + volume actions but still no luck.
Fastboot not recognizing an device, adb either.
Whats possible ?
thanks.

If you tried to boot slot b without first flashing a bootloader to slot b then you're screwed. That's a legit brick.

might have to research what the differences of brick are. If there is no sign of life...screen turning on, flickering, or sounds thats a true brick. If the phones makes a noise after plugged into computer it is not a true brick aka soft brick.

Maybe you should read more carefully. Hes not getting sounds from the phone itself. The computer makes a sound when he plugs it in cuz it recognizes a USB charging device. The phone can still recieve power from the computer regardless of the bootloader. However because he has no bootloader on his active slot he's toast.

It sounds like you may be booting into a low level Qualcomm boot mode. It is possible to recover with Qualcomm tools, but you would almost certianly need Google's specially signed versions.

When you have your device connected to your Laptop or PC, can you see it connected in the Device Manager? Mayne it shows up next to the yellow question mark as "other" possibly? It might say something like QSB9008.

When you have your device connected to your Laptop or PC, can you see it connected in the Device Manager? Mayne it shows up next to the yellow question mark as "other" possibly? It might say something like QSB9008.
Do you hear your PC make the notification sound when you connect it?

nope its just dead. If its even on i can do something but its just dead. I tear down phone and ejected battery on pure power source tried to switch it on again but no luck.
No detection by PC no notification sound. Now it is a device like of hardware without any softwares in it.

Yup still waiting for some help!!!
Switching to another slot might solve the problem, but how to make it detect by pc.
Unfortunately no one has a solution to this problem yet. I'm not sure if it caused by a blank slot, or anti-rollback, avd. I just know that it has happened to a couple of people even @Uzephi and there's no fix yet. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Might try plugging into a 2.0 port, then holding different button combos while plugging in to the phone to see if that'll at least jump it to edl, but apart from that I don't know.

It is serious problem which is unsolvable till date, i already tried different combos while plugging to PC, but no luck.
But in my case it is due to blank slot for sure.
Still waiting for help!
As it could occur on another devices too, a solution should be invented, as of now we are not qualified but the senior experienced members could help to resolve the issue as this is the case of A/B empty slot switching.

Bro please can you provide me with emmc dump image file, i'm in dire need, thanks.

Question hardk brick. no fastboot. no recovery.

I was trying xiaomi.eu on my global alioth. the current version for global is 12.5.4 but the one on xiaomi.eu is 12.5.8
using fastboot to update my phone, after a few minute phone went to the black screen forever. I can't even go to fastboot or recovery anymore.
although it's only showing a black screen, have you tried plugging phone in and running cmd 'fastboot devices' to see if phone shows at all?
also, have you tried holding power down for a good 20-30secs to reset/reboot device?
EDIT: read too quick... xiaomi.eu, no miflash used...

I bet you anything you and him had something go wrong with your PC. I restart my PC right before I flash anything and I close all application's and stop everything. While it flashes I don't touch my computer at all. I would assume that you guys might play on your PC while it's trying to flash thinking it's fine. Also you should use data cable or cable that came with it. Cheap cables are junk that's why they are cheap.
There is option to try EDL testpoint method when your phone is totally dead. It means you open your phone, connect testpoints and your phone would be visible for pc in device manager as qc9008 port.
Next step- you cant flash the rom by yourself, it requires authentication. There are "helpers" for that. I found one in Telegram and it took about 20usd and 20 minutes to boot the phone from dead brick (MI9T davinci).

If that's true that's awesome. How do you find these helpers? Do you have a link? I don't even know what EDL is I am wondering if it ever happens to me
Cant remember anymore where I found it, so many keywords were Google'd. Maybe it was some russian content. Im pretty sure I cant post telegram link here so if someone wants it, I would PM.
Hi thank you guys for the concern. Phone has been fixed. There is a remote service guy who helped me by using TeamViewer. If you guy out there who has the similar problem, you can go on YouTube and search "Xiaomi qc9008"

Working in IT for years, and all I can say if it would be true, we would have serious issues. It's not like windows 98 anymore, you can actually use your computer as a multitasking device. Like there aren't like 10000 processes without playing games. It's always easier to blame them, for doing "wrong" things while flashing. The only "wrong" thing you can do while flashing is pressing cancel or the reset button.
