Someone told me as the old bootloader unlock doesn't work I need to update from my zui 2.5.104 st(india) to zui 3.5 china qpst to unlock the bootloader.
How to update using qfil tool. Please help!!!
follow this guide
It's about 2 years ago that I did that, so excuse my uncertainty what actually worked - i still hope to point you in a good direction.

Possible Firmware Source
Possible source for the stock firmware: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-zuk-z2/how-to/zuk-z2-plus-official-oreo-zuk-3-5-t3719361 (make sure that it is the qpst version)
Connect your phone to your PC in EDL mode:
My phone was bricked. To get it to connect via the correct port i followed this video tutorial using aluminum foil - and it worked!
(I couldn't get any of the key combos to work - and due to the brick state also couldn't use any of the ADB or fastboot commands.)

Possible QFil Errors
During the QFil flash using MiFlash I had an "sahara" and "hello packet" error. Not exactly sure anymore what was the correct solution after all, i just played around with placing the file on the desktop in different spots: directly under C:\zuk or on ~\Desktop\Zuk - just try different spots.
Switch Stock ZUi to English
After getting the stock version running again it was all in Chinese, follow this Video to set it to English:

I ruined my phone
It is difficult to explain what happened. It was quite irresponsible of me. I didn’t research it properly before wiping my phone. Now my zuk folders are not showing up on my pc, and I can't format it using TWRP. I was on a Custom Rom with Android...

Motorola Update Policy
Basically, Motorola will only provide One major Android update and two years of regular security updates.
But may extend support for devices that see longer than normal usage.
9 to 5 Google said:
For instance, this policy depends on the majority, so people who switch/upgrade their devices early could ruin the long-time use of a phone for others. Further, it’s just a paradox. Motorola is essentially saying that it will update phones the longer people keep them, but people will be more likely to upgrade their phone if they feel it’s been abandoned.

Does Motorola still use blur_* OTA updates? If so, is there any other tool to get them? I tried the OTAU.exe and the online version... Couldn't find anything. Also, OTAU says it couldn't find the software version. I entered it manually, but still, it doesn't find anything.

Great info all easy to find!
I tried everything I could think of to find the stock ROM to get the boot.img out of to use Magisk on for my Moto g32 XT2235-2 (devon) and did not find it anywhere. No PC to run the Lenovo assistant (although this is my backup plan if nothing else works in a few days is find someone with a PC - I've used the tool before and it has saved phones for me that I messed up somehow).
Is there any way to pull the boot.img out of the phone itself with unlocked bootloader using fastboot commands or something?

Thanks for the link. It looks like that is for the xt2235-1 which by "retbr" I'm guessing means retail Brazil. I was looking to find xt2235-2 / "reteu" or retail Europe. I might try it eventually, but I'm in no hurry so I'll probably wait. Perhaps Lineage or other ROM will eventually be made.

Hello,
Since BQ shut down the JSON request service in October 2020, there have been no valid free alternatives in order to recover bricked devices with locked bootloader... and there certainly won't be any more from BQ (the bankruptcy procedure of Mundo Reader S.L. - BQ started in Spain at the beginning of February).
For this reason I've released a special emergency package + related instructions, that I have put together and tested over the past few weeks.

The unbrick process requires:
1 compulsory stage ( A = Unbrick Flash )
1 additional stage ( B = IMEI / baseband fix ), which is only required if there are IMEI and/or SIM issues after the unbrick
Note: Please keep in mind that this is NOT a trivial 5 minute process. Anyone who owns a bricked X2 / X2 PRO device must read / follow the instructions carefully and spend around 1-2 hours to fully recover his device.
---------------------
Side Note : Such Emergency Package and related A-B instructions have been assembled & tested to use them ONLY with BQ Aquaris X2 - BQ Aquaris X2 PRO - Vsmart Active 1, that were running vendor-official firmware builds or conventional-unofficial releases (LineageOS, Ubports, etc.).
It is NOT technically compatible with the same HW models, that have been tampered instead to use a so-called "secure" firmware... = if this is your situation, please read the spoiler.
Spoiler: Side Note
Side Note : There are mainly non-technical reasons why, even after Europol dismantled Encrochat network on June 2020, no users with such tampered devices are finding any helpful wipe/flash-instructions in the public domain.
Indeed, the advices for the second/new owners of such (no longer working) devices haven't changed at all.
According to their specific scenarios/behaviours, it's up to them to choose from the following available options :
Try to return the device to the seller & get the money back
.
Contact the Police and provide the device & any information about the seller
.
Disassemble the device & resell the parts (all except the motherboard) as second-hand spare parts
.
Replace the motherboard with a (new or used) compatible one
wow thanks to you and the people that work on that guide !
is it suppose to work on old encrochat phone? cause i get this error with every firehose file.

Thanks, good job.
I have a BQ Aquaris X5 Plus (gohan) in the same situation, bricked and locked bootloader.
I have stock ROM (2.7.0_20181002-1711-gohan-user-684-Fastboot-FW.zip) and BQ Firmware Flash Tool 5.0, but I don't have the JSON file to unlock it.
Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 port is present, I could follow the instructions in this post, I can get most of the content of "EMERGENCY_PACKAGE" from the stock ROM, I only need the files for QFIL (firehose, RawProgram and Patch). I have searched long without result.
I would appreciate help.

The partitions you find inside the BQ fastboot firmware packages aren't enough to make full emergency/rescue packages. Several reserved partitions are missing indeed.
You can try to make a partial QFIL/EDL package... but keep in mind that such partial packages can't solve in most cases of BQ bricked devices with locked bootloader.
So, as for any BQ device with Qualcomm SOC, if you need/want to make a full QFIL/EDL package for Aquaris X5 Plus (gohan), you'll need anyway another working X5 Plus, in order to extract :
A full EDL dump of EMMC storage partitions, that will allow you to get those missing reserved partitions too
.
A QCN backup, that can be edited & used to restore/fix baseband + IMEIs of your KO device
Programmer & patch / rawprogram files for X5 Plus aren't so hard to find. Through a Google search - such as for instance this one - you can easily find the related references on Spanish and German forums.
Side note: this thread is only for messages / information exchange about the emergency package for BQ Aquaris X2 - X2 PRO & Vsmart Active 1 too (since such phone is just a rebranded X2 PRO without NFC hardware).
For any further & specific discussion/message about X5 Plus, you'd better post a new thread.

Hi, i have the Aquaris X2 but i think it is in a worse state than just bricked. The phone looks like this and can take pictures and check the time. Unrecognizable by the pc and QFIL, unable to install drivers, unable to do anything. This are all the apps the phone has. Wonder if it is even possible to fix it.

Had you success recovered your phone? I have an Aquaris X2 with the totally same problem.
Tried @RawMain 's solution but failed during load partition process. I knew it's because I have no correct programmer file, but don't know how to solve it.

Many thanks for your efforts, it's really clear and detail to do the job.
But... I can't unbrick my X2 cause loading partition error. One friend posted his problem as this in another thread (about load partition error,). Though you provided 4 programmer files, where could I download more to try? Or if we can full re-write all firmwares in this phone? Such as remove all partitions and re-build/re-write them?
(I had join the TG group and not found more information...)

(I had join the TG group and not found more information...)

Hello @Bushi1312 & @Pokers Lin
The situation of both your tampered devices is just the same as in post 3 of this thread = read the side note and related spoiler.
I have now included such note in the opening post too.

Thanks for your answer... so, you mean that my X2 had been installed as a "secured firmware" (named "encrochat"?) ? It's a bad news for me. Anyway, thank you very much, at least I can know why it's so hard to be fix now.

to fix what ?
do install the emergency firmware and unlock the firmware with ''fastboot flashing unlock''
then re install your genuine firmware with the emergency mode.
as simple as that
