Hello everybody, so I noticed a lot of people struggling with marshmallow + autorec hard bricks (symptoms: no download mode, no recovery, black screen)
Just to make sure: I'm not responsible for any damages done. This worked for me perfectly, should work for you too. Use it only if you bricked D855 30B!!! (Marshmallow)
Here's what you have to do to fix that:
First follow this amazing guide by senior member l33tlinuxh4x0r, big thanks to him. ---> LINK TO GUIDE
Important stuff: You need to install qualcomm drivers (windows 8, 10 users need to disable driver signature enforcement), you need to short the circuit of your phone, like it's shown in that guide, by shorting it correctly and plugging it in you immediately get connection (keep note of that, there's no need to wait for something, no sound - redo.)
Instead of extracting tot, like it's shown there, use attached files (target Dir). Then again, flash them like it's shown in the tutorial. You should be good to go.

Select the attached download folder as "Target DIR" in the application, it will load the files and let you flash them like it's shown in the tutorial

I've the same problem as you describe here.After I upgraded g3 to marshmallow I applied autorec and my device became hard brick.now my phone under com ports as Qualcomm 9008.
from this point I'm confused that which way to go the first your description 'Instead of extracting tot, like it's shown there, use attached files (target Dir)', Then again, flash them like it's shown in the tutorial'',the second tot file of the rom that we were running. (not older not newer same version).The first way I did not understand attached files where are they ?
if I follow the second way how can I find tot of my rom D855 30B!!! (Marshmallow)?
thank you waiting your help
Instead of tot you use the files from the download link in my post since you don't need to extract tot now, just mark that folder in "target dir" and follow the second guilde, as you call it. Good luck!

That should allow a fresh install if you do a wipe in twrp or format data should be clean stock ROM ????

Copy and paste it in minimal ADB and fastboot folder
Then launch CMD there itself and connect the mobile to PC and and paste the code it automatically does the rest and finally press enter on the final command to reboot
Then it gives a fresh start ... Go and enjoy

if you can acces to recovery, the only thing you can do is adb sideload ...bin
with an original stock ROM for your fire phone
(.bin must be the extension of the file, that you can get from official amazon site)

Thanks. So this is GSI? Bugs?

MTP not working.
Face lock also not working.
but also he say's; "This is Generic GSI ROM, it means. it has some basic feature and limitations"

Edit: I couldnt get this to install, followed the how-to and when i tried to reboot i got "no OS installed" in twrp. tried 3 times, but no joy, A505FN
Hello everyone
iam in the Process of considering to put LOS on my device.
But the i saw the remarks from InFam0us-1985
Is it therefor not adviceable to use this on a Samsung Galaxy A505FN because this is exactly what i have

DId i Brick my Samsung Galaxy A505FN?
Hello one Question:
"did i Brick my device if for some reason after Trying to flash TWRP it fell back in to OEM-locked and i’ am now in a Boot Loop, ore is the any Hope?
I used Heimdal and at first it did the Job but then it would not start again as expected.
After some attempts to flash it Properly it suddenly fell back in to OEM-Locked!
Pleas if you now some advice it be greatly aprichiatet
My device is a Samsung Galaxy A505FN (Spain)
I found a way to Unbrick my device
Just to let anyone that pass her know i finally found a way to unbrick my device here it is:
After it falls back in to OEM-Lock i found you can unlock it again by doing whats explained in the Video.
Have fun be Careful when messing around with rooting

All i know in case of my Samsung Galaxy A50 it is Possible!
To lift the OEM-Lock mode again.
i do not know if that is true for every Device.
Ultimately i was successful to install full Root-access!
I had great difficulty tho to use Heimdall ore any tool on Linux so i ended up using Odin in a VirtuelBox with WinXPpro
but do to no support of Long file names i had to trick there, to to make it work.
I just shorten the Names of every .tar to the first 2 letters.
I was able to successfully flash TWRP with Heimdall but not the Android ROM for my Phone.
I still wonder how to make it work!
There was one Thing i Noticed when Using Odin it seams in the Process he flashes vbmeta.img twice.
That impossible with Heimdall it creates a error message.
Well if anyone - that passes here - knows how to flash a Android 10 ROM of a Samsung Galaxy A50 using Heimdall let me know i tried very very hard to no avail.
I was surprised to learn there is no Good Tool for Linux-user doing this Task.
i only found Old Tutorials!
Is it truly possible that Heimdall dose not support modern Phone-flashing anymore properly?
As of now if a Linux-user ask me about Rooting i would advice him/her to do it in a VritualBox with windows installed.
If you have a License of a Windows Version Higher then XP good otherwise you have to Shorten File names if the very long to make it work.
I scarcely use windows anymore that why i only have a old WinXPpro legally in my Possession.
Unbelievable that the Linux-Community should not have a modern Flash Tool!???

---------- Post added at 12:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:18 PM ----------
Hello to @everyone
I had great difficulty to do this as a Linux User using Heimdall and eventually had to give up (after trying for 3 full days)!
I ended up doing it using Windows out of a VirtualBox!
It was Possible tho to successfully flash TWRP using Heimdall!
It also showed Success when Flashing Android 10 Version for my Phone but would not work.
Using the same Firmware with Odin it worked just fine.
When i compared the Flash-Protocol of Odin with what i did i only Noticed that Odin would flash vbmeta.img twice in the Process something that cant be done with Heimdall as it produces the duplicate error.
I wonder if this is the Reason it would not work.
I was also surprised to Learn, that there is virtual now Tutorial out there using Heimdall on a Modern Phone (last 12 Month ore less).
Is it truly Possible that There is now good solution for Linux Users?
I also Looked in to Fastboot and ADB and other Tools for Linux Platform and they all seam to be outdated!
Also all this Tools could not accomplish the task at hand.
Now if its me and anyone knows how to make it Work on Heimdall let me know as it is a Pretty good tool after all and by now i know it well. I would gladly start to make a tutorial and provide it here for free if i know how to make it work.
I have a txt file where i made a complete Protocol of all i tried if someone is curious ill send it to you.
Saludos Hans
##################################################################
I send some more Details of my Challenge in hope someone my know what it is i have to change!
My Device:
Samsung Galaxy A505FN
I created a .txt file protocol of all i did, i gladly provide it if someone ants to see it.
I analyzed the Whole Firmware-archive and the Pit file of my Phone to eventually find the Problem.
Note:
The Firmware was the correct one as it worked just fine using Odin!!
Analyzing all this, i only noticed two things:
First:
There are 3 seemingly identical files in the Archive and two so called
fota.zip files witch are not Identical
(one in the AP-Packet and one in the CSC-Packet)
Those where:
– cache.img one in the AP-Packet and one in the BL-Packet
– vbmeta.img one in the AP-Packet and one in the BL-Packet
– product.img one in the AP-Packet and one in the BL-Packet
Second:
Once i used Odin to finally flash successfully i noticed that in the Flash-protocol of Odin it seams Odin flashes the vbmeta.img twice in the process!?
Heimdall would not allow me to do so giving me the “Duplicate Error message”
Furthermore i tried one more thing in my desperation to make it work:
i thort: “maybe the order in wish the files a flashed chronologically matters”
So i did exactly that, trying to flash in the same chronological sequence as Odin did.
Note:
Every time i flashed, Heimdall would successfully finish the process but the Phone would not start with android
no matter what i tried.
ALSO i did successfully flash TWRP to my Phone using Heimdall
SO Heimdall works just fine on my system!
I spend a Long Time searching the Internet for a workable Tutorial or glue’s as to what is missing and how i could make it work.
I really want to succeed doing this, as i want to provide my folks offer her in Germany and also English and Spanish speaking Linux-Community with a Tutorial to do this!
I did also drop this Question and Challenge i face in some other Forums no useful answer returned so far
The latest Governmental Abuses and infringement on Peoples Privacy using Corona as excuse, makes it abundantly clear how important this kind a work is!
As for now i think, the only true option for a Linux-User is to run Odin from a Virtual-Box Windows installation, given
you have a legal copy in you're possession and have higher then Windows XP
(else you must change the Filenames of the .tar archives as WIndows XP and lower did not support excessively long filenames.)
Also you have to Install you're Phone USB drivers and have them up and running properly!
Internet access to you're VB makes it all more comfortable, but you can also use Shared folders with the Host-System to do the job.
Note:
I did indeed tried the "WINE-plugin-environment" (Windows 10) under Linux. i could not get it to work.
It was to much messing around make it recognize the USB-connection to the Phone!
I could not get it to work, I don't know if you can?
I guess that would be a nice way for Linux-users if it could be made to work!
What do you guys think, can this be solved?
Pleas let me know if you know the answer to my Challenge!
You're help is not only needed but would be greatly appreciated
Sincerely yours

well I Found this from 2017;
Yes you can do fastboot and adb cmd in Linux but you have to install adb and fastboot drivers to Linux by using
1) sudo add-apt-repository ppahablet-team/tools && sudo apt-get update
2) sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
That's it you get your fastboot and adb cmd’s all the cmds are same just as windows just you need to add sudo in front if not in root

USB File Transfer Does Not Work
After flashing the ROM, when I connect my phone to my PC with the USB cable to transfer files, it does not work. No errors on my PC. I tries switching between modes and back to File Transfer as some suggested, but no luck.
Has anyone experienced this and if so, any solution?

This is what you get with a GSI, finger print wont work either.

Actually it's the only Custom ROM where the finger print works. My only problem was with the USB File Transfer.

Try with a custom kernel
the project is down? Because I love LineageOs, but the A50 is abandoned :/

It’s like Cinderella turning into a pumpkin after midnight. Our devices went from being phones to paperweights overnight.
Someone get our fairy god mothers up in here to bipity bopity this crap back into a working state
Out of curiosity may I ask how did it get to this state? Also I was able to get myself out thru a combination of reflashing boot.img (i was on 4.12), unlocking and relocking bootloader, and factory resetting via recovery mode. Not in that order and each multiple times. Somehow it worked out. Possibly worth a try if you are just waiting anyways with not too much to lose?
I found that a locked bootloader is good at telling whether you didn't quite flash an img right. It kept telling me that things are corrupt and whatnot, and all of a sudden it booted.
So I'm pretty close to getting a working TWRP for this device. I have extracted a basic TWRP.img file and merged it with the boot image for the Red Magic 6. When I flashed it, the logo shows up but nothing happens.
When I have time this weekend, I'll mess around with it some more.
That way we can unbrick it with twrp and not have to worry about waiting for an unbrick tool.

I’m in the same boat but Nubia is having me send my phone back to them to check out.
Guys the unbrick tool is already in this forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unbrick-tool-edl-flash-switch-from-cn-to-eu.4284797/
Note if you are rooted before going to EDL mode (9008) you should backup EFS via QFIL QCOM tool as a few people lost their IMEIs - I think it's in EFS Explorer the tool is free just Google it. Then do an EFS backup and save where you can't lose it. Here's a guide just ignore the Lenovo part, but you must go into diag mode Qualcomm 901D which is (try dial code *#7678# first it worked on the Red Magic 5 series, probably puts you in diag mode still) otherwise: adb shell; su; setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb before QFIL will see it: https://forums.easy-firmware.com/showthread.php/29143-How-To-Restore-Backup-QCN-EFS-on-Qualcomm-devices-(Giuide)
You can also back up the partition if you are rooted via adb shell. From memory, enable dev options (click build # under system until it shows up), patch your boot.img with Magisk Manager (should be in the ROM zip file you downloaded, copy to phone), flash back to the phone with fastboot (it will be in Downloads/magisk_patched_xyz.img "xyz" changes names just depends on Magisk) command is just after reboot to fastboot: fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_xyz.img; reboot and you should be rooted. Then from ADB do an ADB shell (it will ask to trust the device connected) adb shell (on PC), su (will ask for root access, grant it), $ dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img and copy that to your PC. That's your persist partition in case it gets messed up you should be able to: $dd if=/sdcard/persist.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist that assumes you copied persist.img back to your /sdcard/ in internal memory.
If I messed up a step feel free to correct it, this is all from memory no PC in front of me on vacation...

I locked the bootlooder the screen is black, the only way to connect to the device is on a PC "COM",
I tried this link but and the next steps but it doesn't work, I don't know what to do with the phone and still it doesn't work,
I think I need the firmware RED MAGIC 6 "NX669J_NON EU Common".
PLEASE HELP ME
https://mega.nz/file/ntBSxDKa#h9vUPGoWVyqtyDYWYmSgz8bE1_vNimBMAqTp9csvv-w
2) Make sure all the drivers are installed correctly (Qualcomm, EDL etc...)
3) Open the MiTool application
4) in MiTool, select the folder images
5) Put your phone in EDL mode
6) Once connected, Click flash - the brushing process will start automatically.
Good evening I found a guy who unlocked the phone for me at 150 dollars.
the phone quickly repaired without any problems so the problem is solved.
