[NEED HELP] Extract, edit and reflash Product.img - OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers

Hi to all! Like the title said, i'm trying to extract from 7T product partition img, then i want to edit it and re-flash it back.
Which is the fastest way to do so?

to get to the image you can use the payload dumper and unpack the payload.bin contained in the firmware pack then you have the produckt.img whether you can edit this or whether it also has write protection I cannot tell you unfortunately .

Maybe you can do this using the edl.py script that's available on GitHub.
This script allows you to use some of the qualcomm sahara protocol commands for stuff like reading and saving partition from the phone to your computer, or to write a partition from the computer to the phone internal memory.
Also with msm tool, you can enable the readback mode that allows you to backup single or multiple partitions (you just have to check the ones you want).

OFP file extract

there's many ways to extract the ofp file, but u need some tools like jtag, this post its to find someone who have it or know how to extract it without them.
In the ofp file are the files on mbn and xml format, used to flash devices with QFIL, so thats why i need it cause the device its bricked without recovery and bootloader, so, the only option left is the QFIL

LG V50 V450PM (Sprint) Android 9 full flash dump

Here's my dump from V450PM Android 9 not updated clean device. This may be useful for recovery and archiving purposes.
Dumped with QFIL, all partitions except userdata.
Mirror 1: mediafire.com (3.3 GiB)
Mirror 2: androidfilehost.com (3.3 GiB)
how to flash?

I don't see where in qfil to do it. I could flash them in partition manager but the file names dont say which file is which partition
I saved each section in QFIL. Then I compared, for example, my "ReadData_ufs_Lun5_0x620_Len32" with what is in the archive. I found it and renamed it, let's say in abl_a. And so with each file. As a result, I renamed all the files, flashed them, but in the end the download did not go beyond the splash screen. I had to go back to A 10.0

The names are in COM3_PartitionsList.xml.
<partition label="drm" physical_partition_number="0" start_sector="8198" num_partition_sectors="3584" type="89707CD8-2272-449B-A564-ED37238D240C" guid="2AB1C0BC-C6CF-0E8D-45CA-C20E224B082A" />
is
ReadData_ufs_Lun0_0x2006_Len3584_DT_23_01_2022_22_31_39.bin
start_sector is in hex in the file name.
I wrote a python script to dynamically rename the files but it has not been pushed to github yet. For this particular bin files, I also made a bash script to just rename the files. To use it, download and unzip the compressed file. Put this bash script in the same directory. Run the script with either ./rename_files.sh or bash rename_files.sh.
Hi, I flash manually all of the files but it not work, Anything I should know to do it correctly?

How To Guide Backup full firmware(ROM) of any MediaTek device using MTK client| Oppo reno6 5G | MT6877

Hello Guys,
Many times we encounter a situation where we need to do some software update, flash custom ROM, install stock ROM etc, so it is advisable to take full firmware/ROM backup of your device. If required then you can flash this backup to restore your device.
We will use MTK client Github tool for this backup process and using same tool we can flash the backup firmware.
This method has been tested on OPPO Reno6 5G which is powered by MediaTek MT6877 chip. Backup size was approx 12 GB. Using this method you can backup firmware of any other supported MediaTek chip in this tool. In this method I don't backup userdata because this tool backups entire partition size irrespective of actual data stored.
Step1: Pre-requisite -Installing required drivers and doing setup
Install MediaTek driver.
Install python(during installation of python please select "install for all user" from customization and tick add path to system variable).
install usbdk.
download extarct Mtk client tool.
go to folder where you extract mtk client

open cmd here and run below command
cd mtkclient
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

}
Step3: Run full firmware backup
In cmd run command below, please skip userdata partition only because of very huge size.
python mtk rl --skip userdata "<full path to store the backup files>"
Once all the partitions dumped it will show message "All dumped partitions success"
During backup process it will dump the device preloader, this file is very important so, please keep this file safely. this file may require in future.
Step3: Reboot the phone
Once backup is done, you can restart your phone by pressing vol up and power button together for 30 sec.
Step4: How to Restore (if required)
Backup process might have created approximately 58 files but we do not need to flash all those files.
We only need to flash below files, so create a new folder and copy all these 33 files from original backup to your newly created folder.

can a backup of the 33 files be applied to a new device which is exactly the same model without bricking it? (ie. a rom transfer to create a clone onto second device)
Hello and thank you so much for your guide. I was able to get everything setup for the most part, but I am held up by two problems, I'm sure they are simple but I would appreciate any help if anyone knows the answer.
Problem number one, is the correct vcom driver, the preloader one as shown in this
Spoiler: PIC
Or should I be using another?
My other question is, what is the correct terminology for what we are trying to achieve by getting the phone to register in the MTK client? Like, are we trying to get it to "boot into preloader mode"?
Spoiler: PIC
I am unable to get my phone to register or show in device manager or with the mtk client, to get it to post into the "preloader" mode. Since I do not know how to adequately describe what I am trying to do, I am having a hard time even searching on google for more help. If anyone can give me any help in grammer google search or direct knowledge on this simple part i would appreciate it
The answer to the driver question is to install all of them not just one. This discussion on reddit has some comments which go into more discussion of the bootrom protection and other github repos to achieve this. So to answer my main question about the phone not being detected by the MTK client it seems there is one more step for myself and other folks in this condition.
Spoiler: show link
https://www.reddit.com/r/androidroot/comments/wj6zrv
This guide explains how the MTK devices load the preloader. It is only up for 1 second apparently

thanks a lot!!!! i have installed easily mtk client on garuda linux, and works very well (used for restore stook boot and solve a bootloop that seems impossible to solve). this guide is what i'm searching from some week. a way to do a full backup of my phone, userdata included
my suggestion for install mtkclient and other android tool is switch to garuda linux. if you try linux, you will never use windows again. garuda app manager with chaotic-aur have all software that you need. try to believe

LG G710EAW partitions corrupted. Permanently Locked!!

I hard bricked an LG G7 ThinQ G710EAW by flashing the wrong firmware (T-Mobile) onto it via LGUP. It now goes into EDL mode after shorting test points, but I'm unable to revive it by following this unbrick thread. Loading up the partition images via Partition Manager in QFIL "succeeds", but it doesn't revive my phone. Doesn't get me to fastboot. Still nothing on screen.
I also tried the rawprogram*.xml option using the XMLs in that thread, but QFIL keeps erroring out that the partition sizes defined in the XML are different from what it sees on the device.
The OP for the thread seems to not be active any longer.
Can someone here please help me understand how to recover my phone?
Anyone? Happy to donate for help as well.
Bumping up this thread.
If I had another EAW motherboard, would it help unbrick my motherboard? Wondering how I can fix my phone
So, I was able to finally figure this all out, recover my LG G710EAW and bring it back to life! It was a mix of information from many threads. No boxes, and no payment to anyone. All free.
The OP of this thread is active but has completely stopped responding to his thread and to his DMs - he's likely uninterested in a 4-5 year old phone at this point. In his first post he mentioned creating rawprogram* XMLs by hand, and it taking hour+ to do so. However, I'm unsure why it took him that long and in the end the files don't even work for QFIL since the sector size in the XMLs (512B) is different from device sector size (4096B). Nevertheless, I was able to flash these via command line 'edl' which ignored the sector size, but it didn't recover the device.
Generating rawprogram XMLs is easy if you can figure out how to run this Python program mentioned in this thread. However, the files attached there no longer work in 2022, the links are dead, and Python 2.7 is a dinosaur. Someone in that thread mentioned a different, fixed, repo but it didn't work with Python 2.7 for the 'undz' part. After a lot of head banging, I tried Python3 and 'undz' worked.
Here are the steps:
- Download the firmware for your model in KDZ format
- Install QPST
- Install Python3.x
- Run: pip3 install setuptools zstandard
- Download ZIP for kdztools from the repo: https://github.com/ErickG233/kdztools (or the attachment)
- Unzip kdztools and CD into that directory kdztools-master. This version is bug-fixed and also generates rawprogram files for us.
- Copy the firmware KDZ into kdztools-master directory
- Run: python3 unkdz.py -f G710EAW30e_00_0916.kdz -x. This creates a DZ file in a new `kdzextracted` folder
- Move the extracted DZ file from the kdzextracted folder back one level up, into kdztools-master dir
- Run: python3 undz.py -f G71030q_00_user-signed-ARB0_OPEN_ESA_DS_OP_0916.dz -c
- This creates a dzextracted folder here with all the files needed to recover your phone. Now all we need are the rawprogram XMLs.
- Run: python3 undz.py -f G71030q_00_user-signed-ARB0_OPEN_ESA_DS_OP_0916.dz -r. This will create all the rawprogram XMLs you need to flash. No patch files are created, but that is OK.
- In my case, QFIL complained it couldn't find file "PrimaryGPT_0.bin", so I copied file gpt_main0.bin_0 and renamed the copy gpt_main0.bin_0_copy > PrimaryGPT_0.bin
- Load your phone into EDL mode. If you want to use test points, see the image in this thread.
- Load QFIL. Use the ELF programmer file from any of the threads linked thus far. Select flat build. Load all rawprogram XMLs generated previously. Hit cancel when it asks for patch file XMLs.
- Hit Download.
This will recover your phone so it's able to boot and all. However, in my case, the phone had lost serial number and IMEI numbers (dual SIM) as well.
- To restore your IMEI numbers, you will need your QCN file or a backup of your FSG (fsg.img) partition from before bricking. In my case, I had flashed, via LGUP, T-Mobile firmware on my Indian phone. I then dumped all the partitions using command line EDL. I have not used QCN method since it seems to require a lot of steps to put the phone into diagnostics mode. I had a backup of the FSG partition, so I used that instead.
- If you have a backup of your FSG partition, load QFIL > Partition Manager. Erase modemst1 modemst2 and fsg partitions. Then, load the backup FSG.img file onto FSG partition. Restart phone.
- Now, if you have the serial number from your bill or box, see this thread to restore it. Pay extra attention to the Firehose configuration section, or else, it may create some issues. It's best to restore S/N after restoring IMEI in my experience, but this could just be some randomness or bad Firehose config during S/N restore.
This happiness was short-lived. When I was flashing all these KDZ via QFIL and LGUP trying to get my IMEIs back, I once saw "This phone is permanently locked and cannot be unlocked". That seems to have taken out my second SIM slot.
Now, after a fresh QFIL flash (with erase before download), my first SIM slot is also dead.
Neither of the SIM slots work now.
This has been so frustrating!

QFIL Helper v1.0.0.559

QFIL Helper is a console app created out of the necessity to automate the process of partition backup with QFIL utility. As one of the “lucky” owners of the sprint branded LG v50, I was faced with the grim prospect of making manual backup of every available partition, every time I’d want to upgrade, downgrade, tamper with the system files or mess with Magisk modules.
While researching this subject, I've stumbled upon this guide explaining in great detail how to use fh_loader.exe supplied within QFIL (QPST) utility. Then I've decided to take it one step further and automate the entire process…
QFIL Helper v1.0.0.559 (GitHub)
Features:
◆ Backup Partitions
Performs an automated backup of all available partitions.
COM?_PartitionsList.xml must be up-to-date.
Userdata will be skipped due to its size.
◆ Backup LUNs
Performs an automated backup of LUNs 0-1-2-4-5.
LUN0 backup will exclude Userdata due to its size.
◆ Backup hidden partitions
Some partitions, like DDR, CDT (LUN3), DevInfo, Limits (LUN4) are hidden.
QFIL Partition manager won't display them nor export to PartitionsList.xml.
QFIL Helper will attempt to locate and save those partitions.
Enter the following command line argument to enable this option: -hidden
◆ Backup hidden LUNs
LUNs 3 and 6 are hidden and won't show-up in QFIL Partiton Manager.
There's no possible way for me to calculate the size of these LUNs properly for every model of v50/G8.
QFIL Helper will ask the user to enter LUN number (3,6) and its size in sectors.
Use this mode only if you're absolutely sure you know what you doing.
Enter the following command line argument to enable this option: -hidden
◆ Backup: ABL, Boot, LAF, XBL
Quick backup of all boot related partitions.
◆ Backup: FTM, Modemst, FSG, FSC
Quick backup of vital partitons.
◆ Detect connected COM ports
QFIL Helper will continiously query Windows for all connected devices.
If Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 is detected, then your phone is connected in EDL mode.
◆ Flash firmware
Restore your partitions backup.
Restore your LUN backup.
Flash 3rd party images like Engineering ABL.
Use command line argument to enable flashing of entire LUN images: -advanced
The app was tested with Android 9/10 and LG V450PM. It'll probably work with G8, G8X and V60 as well. This release seems to be stable, backup of partitions and LUNs works without any issues. Flashing single partitions like abl or boot should be safe, flashing entire LUN backups or system/vendor/product/OP is probably safe too. I've tested this with my own phone as much as I could, but you never know... Last thing I want is for someone to brick their phones, so I've added a command line argument: -advanced. Without it, the program won't flash LUN backups.
When flashing firmware, the files must be placed in the "Flash" subfolder and named in compliance with any of the following formats:
lun#_partition_$.bin | parition_$.bin | partition.bin | lun#.bin | lun#_complete.bin
For example:
lun4_abl_a.bin - will be flashed into LUN4, Slot A
abl_a.bin - will also be flashed into LUN4, Slot A.
lun4.bin - will flash entire LUN4
How to use:
Connect your phone to the PC in EDL mode
Launch QFIL and open Partition Manager
Click on "Save Partition File"
Leave QFIL running with Partition Manager open
Run QFIL Helper
Thank you god bless you, this is amazing
thank you so much for detailed notes.
please add some screenshots as well, it will be the cherry on the cake

Without it, the program won't flash LUN backups.
When flashing firmware, the files must be placed in the "Flash" subfolder and named in compliance with any of the following formats:
lun#_partition_$.bin | parition_$.bin | partition.bin | lun#.bin | lun#_complete.bin
For example:
lun4_abl_a.bin - will be flashed into LUN4, Slot A
abl_a.bin - will also be flashed into LUN4, Slot A.
lun4.bin - will flash entire LUN4
How to use:
Connect your phone to the PC in EDL mode
Launch QFIL and open Partition Manager
Click on "Save Partition File"
Leave QFIL running with Partition Manager open
Run QFIL Helper
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
