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?

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.

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.

Hello,
My phone got hard bricked yesterday after the MIUI 11 update. It was running fine before on lastest MIUI10 global ROM with persistent TWRP, root and magisk. Bootloader is unlocked.
The phone dont turn on anymore and just show a white notification led when plugged to a PC. No recovery or fastboot access
If i press volume up when i plug it to my pc, it show up as "Mediatek USB Port" and disappear after 5 seconds.
I tried to open the phone/ removing battery, shorting EDL test points, but nothing happens.
My only solution appears to be using Sp_flash_tool but seems like i need an authorized Mi account flash the stock ROM.
Do someone know where i can get acces to one of those account ?
Thanks for your replies guys !
Redmi Note 8 Pro Hard Bricked
I'm in the same situation.
please help me
Hello,
The same thing happened to me when I installed the Orange FOX recovery, it didn't go into Fastboot mode, so I had to press the 3 buttons and wait for it to turn off completely, open the ADB control console and then connect it to the PC via USB by pressing the volume + button.
The latter I did on several occasions (Turn it off completely and connect by USB). Until I recognized it, when I recognized them, I had to flash the SYSTEM, CUST, RECOVERY. One by one, in total it took almost 5 minutes.
After that the phone started normal, obviously without root, nor custom recovery.
I'm also in the same situation as all of you, the PC doesn't recognize me and I can't go into fastboot
Hey,
I tried everything I could (battery connected/unplugged), my phone seems to have a corrupted preloader and only start the boot rom. That's why it shows up as "Mediatek USB PORT", if the preloader was'nt corrupted, it should be named "MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM port" or something similar.
The only way to recover it imo is to flash a healthy preloader using SPFlashTool low level flash mode and next flash a full rom when "MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM port" appears in the device manager.
Unfortunately, xiaomi ask for a certified account for low level flashing. I found one but the guy ask for 40$ for just logging it into my pc with teamviewer.
I buyed a Samsung Note10+ in replacement and i'll just wait someone find a solution to sell my 10-day-used redmi if I can revive it one day.
I got hundreds $ of Xiaomi home automation products in my home, but that was my first phone from this brand. I think it will also be the last.
I'm sad to see that their security policy on the phones is so frustrating to the people who just want to have a full acces on their devices.
Authorise can be done with professional tools
Tools like umt, hydra tool, miracle xiaomi tool, does the authorization. And i think mtk cpu Auth will only be available in miracle xiaomi tool, be aware every Auth cost credit of 4 to 10 u will have but credit separate from the tool.. Hope this will help

I Faced The Same Problem Of Bricked Phone Of Redmi Note 8 Pro, I Was Unable To Enter Fastboot Mode, Recovery Mode & Even Can't Enter Into The System Because I Flash Wrong Boot.img File, Thereafter I Tried To Use SP Flash Tool But Failed Due To Xiaomi Authorised Account Issue. Then I Emailed Xiaomi For Getting My Account Authorised And They Emailed Back And Told Me That They Can't Authorise My Account..
Then I Decided To Visit Mi Service Centre As My Phone Was In Warranty, The Funniest Fact Is The Technicians Existed There Were Failed To Detect The Problem. I Told Them That My Phone Was Automatically Got Dead After Installing An Update Just For Making Them Unaware From The Real Fact.
I Told Them That There Is No Hardware Issue Only Need To Flash Original Firmware But They Are Freak And Didn't Listen To Me And Opened Up Every Part Of The Phone, Now They Told Me That The Phone Will Need 7 Days Of Repairing Take The Phone After 7 Days.
I Tried To Teach Them The Way By Which The Phone Could Be Repaired But They Only Listen To Me And Did Nothing, They Were Behaving Like A Beginner In Repairing Phone,
They Didn't Know That The Phone Can Also Be Reapired During Switched Off.
Now I Have To Wait For 7 Days, So Guys Flash Anything Carefully Otherwise You Will Face The Same Situation.

Well I guess I won't unlock my device... To be honest I have no reason to do so. The phone is running great and I have adguard and removed all the apps I don't like using adb.

Well there is now a way to bypass the need for an authorized account, if you device is unbricked. Basically if you flash this before you brick your phone, it allows you to use sp flash to unbrick it without authorized account.

This is only for unbricked devices.... As I stated. If your device was already bricked it won't help you.
I also faced this problem... I used paid service to unbrick it... I must pay 35USD for the service.. but just wait.. If it works I will post here again. I bricked my phone when flashed anti brick on Android 10.. I forgot downgrade it to Android 9
So, I soft bricked my TMO OP9P. I can still access Fastboot but can't access anything else. After leaving fastboot, when the phone is rebooting, I just get a black screen.
On plugging it in, It shows up in ADB as unauthorized, and with no prompts to authorize, I can't get any further.
Any ideas?
I did that to an HTC U11 once - Never got it recovered, had to toss it...
Never dared relock a bootloader since...
I had the same thing happen to me.
The only thing that worked for me is to boot recovery and wipe system. Good luck

For all of you having this issue, simply use the msm for your respective device by unplugging your phone, select power off, enter edl mode with cable plugged in and run the tool. I know another solution, but please PM me if this one doesn't work.
I had this issue as well, but you better not have messed with the sensitive partitions without a backup, otherwise there's no way to repair it.

Did you try booting your phone into EDL mode? Hold down both the volume buttons, and while holding them down, plug in the USB cable (Connect with the PC). If you're on Windows, check the device manager in the control panel, and check if the PC recognized the phone (you might need to install the drivers too).

Yes, it's for the Pro, but the procedure is the same. A good thing is that EDL works. Now just grab the MSM Tool for your model and flash it.

im sorry i just realized i jumped in the middle of a different thread. This happened while trying to flash tmobile oneplus 9 pro to global firmware and after trying to enter recovery mode. Im guessing it happened because the files are for one plus 9, so im looking for the files for a 9 pro conversion but only am finding msm tool downloads for conversion instead of flashbin files.

Before I jump to conclusions, could you explain exactly which model you have and what is your goal?

i have the le 2127 from tmobile because i didnt know any better. i dont want to root or do anything crazy. I just want to be able to flash to global or eu firmware so i can upgrade as oneplus releases the updates and not be a year behind on tmobiles schedule. I have the sim and bootloader unlocked successfully. I started to flash to the one plus 9 firmware because i somehow missed that it did not say pro. So now my phone in unresponsive except for QDL 9008 mode. MSM tool recognizes it and begins to update it but then gets a param preload "device not image match" message in red and stops. So once i figure out how to get past that and get this set to factory, i want to properly flash it to global or eu, whichever is available, and upgrade it to the latest version.

Are you getting the mismatch on the global/eu MSM or are you trying to flash back to stock T-Mobile? You're getting a mismatch because you're most likely using the wrong version of a firmware (msm).
Hello, i tried helping my grandmother by installing the global rom on her Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 Pro WIFI, however as it didn't work i tried forcing the rom onto it by flashing it manually using fastboot, after this i am not able to power it on, or reach fastboot. It's just a black screen it doesn't matter how long you hold the power key it's just completely black.. Is there something i can do???? Or is it completely destroyed?
Global ROM is not available for PRO version. Probably you flashed a wrong one. Try flashing back the CN one matches your model.

long press "Volume Down" + "Power" for a few seconds at the same time and then release only"Power" once the fastboot logo appears, finally release "Volume Down" to enter the fastboot mode
Its for xiaomi mi5
Maybe helps
Is there anything I can do? Brick help
My Xiaomi mi5 does not turn on. No lights, fastboot is not accessible, resetting it does not do anything. Basically for any combination of buttons that I press, nothing happens and the screen stays black - it is completely dead. However, when I...

Yeah so the only problem with this is that mine won't even show up even though i have said drivers installed.. I'm starting to think it's hard bricked
Hello, yes same as me. The tablet are in the 9008 edl state when you put it on your computer. there are many flashing tools out there, the problem are the flash authentification from xiaomis side. i prepared a empty pc with windows 10 and loaded the last fastboot image. then i got a telegram contact from a russian guy who was able to use the xiaomi auth procedure, cost me 30 dollar and 3 days to find out this crap
Xiaomi needs a better way to unbrick its devices instead of Authorized Mi Accounts
Xiaomi has locked down the EDL mode on all of its devices, making it nigh impossible to unbrick a device without an Authorized Mi Account. Read on for more!

When it's plugged into the PC, is it recognised with "fastboot devices" or "adb devices"?
If it is you should be able to wipe with "fastboot -w" and start again.
Google detailed instructions.

Unfortunately no, i do not get any response from fastboot whatsoever, there's no device detection in either fastboot or device manager. I even tried on my laptop which is brand new still no sign of life

Don't give up yet!
Charge the tablet with another cable that you know works.
Make sure that you have the most up to date version of Platform Tools.
Make sure that when you're in the Command Prompt that you are in the Platform Tools folder.
Check connections with another device....

Have you got the most up to date version of Platform-tools installed and are you checking the connection from a CMD prompt in that Platform-tools folder?

Could you please link me one of those? I'm over in the EU so maybe they'll be fairly easy to find?

Yeah, i've been doing all of that. I just now found out that there's an EDL cable specifically made for flashing in that mode
