How to set device tampered back to false?

I will explain how to set the device tampered back to "false" on the Wileyfox Swift.
Required:
7z
WFS.7z (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6Ge199bCD5_NF9RWGhVLVhxajA/view?usp=sharing)
Windows 7 or 8
Driver Signature Enforcement disabled
Step 1: Brick the device on purpose
Hold Volume Up button+Volume Down button while plugging in USB
You should be see QHS_USB BULK in Device Manager
S
Step 2: Install Driver
Reboot with Driver Signature Enforcement disabled ( Google if you must)
Plug device in and make sure you see QHSUSB BULK in Device Manager
If you see Relink HS QDLoader 9008 uninstall it and delete driver software
Then refresh and you should see QHS USB BULK
Manually Update Driver software and navigate to driver folder extracted in WFS.7z
Step 3 : Install QPST provided in WFS.7z
I think its pretty straight forward
Step 4: Flash Firmware
Open QFil
Select Port and choose your device if not already chosen
Select Flat Build
Programmer Path must be prog_emmc_firehose_8916.mbn in the Maincode folder from WFS.7z
Build Path should automatically appear
Hit load XML.
Click rawprogram_upgrade.xml
Click patch0.xml
Click Download
Once done remove and reinsert battery
Step 5: Verify Tampered:False
boot into fastboot
type the following:
fastboot oem device-info
and it should say Device tampered : false and Device Unlock : False
NB: If you get a SaharaDownload fail or something just remove battery and USB for 5 seconds. Plug battery in. Then plug USB in.
NB: I do not accept any responsibility for damaged devices or anything. You point your finger at me and I will laugh at you
If it works don't hesitate to donate me a cup of coffee

This does not work for me, no matter wht I try, in the device manager I just get "Android" with a yello triangle.
No manual driver install / update (or update via windows update) solve that problem.
Try it on two Windows 7 PCs (x32 & x64) with Firewall, Antivirus and driver signature are disabled.
On a Windows 10 PC, the device connects as "Marshall London Device".

I don't think ur swift is bricked

when puting battery in jut get the screen "wileyfox"; recovery does not start (vol- and pwr) but fastboot mode ist working (vol+ and pwr). so it's not bricked?
so I repeat step 1 but still in windows 7 device manager having "Other Devices -> Android" with no yellow triangle.

I get SaharaDownload fail. Removing battary is useless. What else can i try? Thanks in advance

Now you get Sahara Fail. I think this is some sort of 'Lock Mode'. I fixed it by removing battery. Reinserting battery and immediately plugging in USB and hitting download

Probably I have to use a special cable?

See it gets the SharaVersion right so I'm guessing that phone is in a correct state. The problem there could be that it didn't decompress properly. Maybe the integrity of your decompressed WFS.7z is not intact. Go to Android One(2nd Gen) dedicated page. I got help there. I guess all you need is to look there.

Maybe u didn't installQPSt right or the driver is a issue. I flashed stock like 3 days ago and it works perfectly

Hey @cyaneo. If you still have the Yellow Android triangle this is because your drivers aren't installed correctly. I tried it. But that also means your fastboot is working.

Hi all,
Ive been a way from Android for a long time so I'm no expert but the method posted above failed for me. Like others, all my PC would recognise the phone as was "Marshall London Device" and essentially my phone was useless.
Can I ask why we need to erase and/or brick the phone?
Instead what worked for me was to reboot into fastboot mode, download Cyanogen OS signed zip, extract and run flash-radio.sh, then flash recovery and system manually. Reboot phone into working OS and then turn off OEM Unlock.
Once that's done I rebooted into fastboot and confirmed bootloader was locked and that tampered was false (as an official signed OS is installed I take it?).
Anyway as I say, I'm no expert but surely that's an easier and cleaner way than erasing/bricking a phone and only needs fastboot and the latest official signed rom from Cyanogen OS directly?

Hi,
This is my first post. (active lurker previously) hopefully its not too late.
In my experience on other device running 8916, a sahara failure can be overcame by holding the power button when entering download mode. (E.g: if you enter download mode by pressing and holding vol+/- simultaneously and plugging in usb cable, try holding the power button as well when you plug in the cable). This is normally a result of battery too low.

After bricking my Swift with some gymnastics around Android One firmware images, this tool worked flawlessly!
I was a bit confused when it came to the part of deleting/ manually reinstalling the driver. After the device was shown as "QHS_USB BULK", I manually installed the " Relink HS QDLoader 9008". Everything else went really smoothly. The device is good as new
For the adventurous ones with a Swift- this is one tough little phone. Hard-brick ain't a reason to stop

Lol I agree. This baby took some hits. I clocked it to 1.6 at stable. At 1.9 she became instable and started crashing #YeahITakeRisks

Of course there is. Don't get me wrong I understand your point. But you need to remember there are log files and a bunch of other stuff lying around if you fastboot. When you use QFil it basically rewrites all the partitions thus no logs. I returned my first Swift with the IMEI issue and they gave me a new one in a week

Hi,
my Swift is also Bricked.... that means no bootloader boot or etc. i tried to flash the phone with this method but no success. my error with QFIL is this

[OPN105G][OOS TMO BE88CB] Unbrick tool to restore your device to OxygenOS

Disclaimer: By attempting any of the processes listed in this thread you accept full responsibility for your actions. I will not be held responsible if your device stops working, catches fire, or turns into a hipster and claims to have been modified before it was cool.
Hi everyone, similar to the previous threads for
OP3, OP3T, OP5, OP5T, OP6, OP6T, OP7, OP7PRO, regular OP7T, T-Mobile OP7T, regular OP7TPRO, T-Mobile OP7TPro 5G, regular OP8, T-Mobile OP8, Verizon OP8, Visible OP8, OP8Pro, OP Nord, regular OP8T, T-Mobile OP8T, regular OPN10 5G and regular OPN100 here is the EDL package (also known as MSM tools or unbrick tools) that can revive a bricked OnePlus Nord N10 bought from T-Mobile.
As this is a carrier specific MSM, it will only work with BE2028 model with build tag BE88CB
You should also be able to rollback your phone to a previous release of OOS with them if for some reason you want to go back to an older firmware
You can download the following versions:
ANDROID 10:
OOS 10.5.8
Mirror for first and last MSMs: https://onepluscommunityserver.com/
Instructions:
Launch MsmDownloadTool V4.0.exe.
On the login prompt select "Other" in the dropdown menu and click on Next.
Wait a few seconds until main window shows up.
Press Start button so that it waits for your device to be connected
Power off your device
Maintain volume up and down buttons to get into Qualcomm EDL mode.
Plug your device to your computer.
Should you not manage to do that and have adb access, you can use adb reboot edl instead
Wait ~300 seconds.
Enjoy your brand new device.
FAQ:
Does this work on Mac or on Linux?
Unfortunately no, tool is Windows only. You should need at least Windows 7.
Why is my antivirus freaking out when unzipping the archive or running the tool?
In an effort to protect reverse engineering from being done (and by extension prevent conversion process like it was done on 6T and 7Pro), OnePlus now use VM Protect V3 in their MSM tools. As this tries to detect debug environment, this is seen as malicious behaviour by some antivirus.
My device isn't detected
Go to device manager and make sure your phone shows up as QDLOADER 9008.
If it shows up as QHUSB_BULK, it means Qualcomm driver wasn't installed automatically by Windows Update. Download the latest one from Microsoft website at http://download.windowsupdate.com/c..._fba473728483260906ba044af3c063e309e6259d.cab (source https://www.catalog.update.microsof...updateid=8ee52ba0-bdef-4009-88cf-335a678dd67a ) and install it manually by right clicking on QHUSB_BULK and selecting "Update driver software" and "Browse my computer for driver software" to where you downloaded CAB file.
If you can't get into EDL mode by hardware keys, you may use adb reboot edl (will require your phone to still have ADB access)
MSM tool is stuck on "Param pre-processing"
Ensure you're using the Qualcomm drivers linked above.
MSM tool is stuck on "Sahara communication failed"
Unplug your phone, get in fastboot mode, turn off phone, wait 15 secondes and get back in Qualcomm EDL mode. You can also try using a USB 2.0 port instead of a 3.0 one.
What is SMT Download mode?
Just don't try to unlock that mode, it will wipe your IMEI and your Widevine certificate if you use it.
How can I fix "SMT config not found" error?

I need this for the T-Mobile Variant.
- Works great! Thanks.

I learned a ton of hard lessons with this device. My maiden voyage of custom ROM and hackery. Now, unfortunately, I have to resort to a power greater than my own mind to restore my little N10 5G to sanity. Thank you for this post, and wish me luck,

What if I have Unlocked Bootloader + TWRP + patched boot - will unbrick flashing restore these partitions to factory defaults ?
Will I lose bootloader unlock after flashing ?

Thank you.

I used it yesterday after I screwed up my Nord N10 5g. I hadn't used msn since last year on another device I sold, so had to be real careful getting back in the saddle.
It worked fine - no issues - except it took 500 seconds not just 300 - lol.

So I got everything downloaded and installed once I get the nord in edl mode it shows as bulk driver I tried to install the cab through driver update and my pc doesn't see it what can I do to fix that

The URL with links to files doesnt seem to have the current version of BE2028 - T-Mobile - 11.0.1.BE88CB
D:

the problem i encountered was it showing up as unknown usb device (device descriptor request failed) in device manager

If you bricked it, then you have to unbrick using the provided tool here, it's only android 10, though. Afterwards you must do OTA.

Hello. I have OnePlus Nord N10 5G model BE2029 and cannot get it unbricked. MSMTool fails with error "Param failed". Can you point me to the right ROM, I have been struggling whole day and still no luck.

My friend, I don't know how to thank you for this. After the update that I did on my phone about 1 month ago, I have been going crazy with having problems sending texts and making calls whether on 5G or 4G. I got together with oneplus customer service today to revert back the OS, for me and it was no help. This has been perfect!!!! thank you so much!!!

My OPN105G is forever stuck on "waiting for device" in both status of communication and status of last communication... i tried like over 20 times. the device manager shows it fine as 9008.

Yes. It puts you back to default stock.
As long as you have your unlock.bin file, you can unlock your bootloader again though.

Spent four hours trying volume buttons and adb method. Nope... Don't waste your time. This works for I'm assuming 1 out of every nobody on planet Earth.
Your browser is not able to display this video.

MSM has readback function which can grab stock boot for patching

Question Bricked and EDL doesn't work

It was only a matter of time before my first brick with this phone. Earlier this evening I tried to factory reset from TWRP and clean flash latest OOS, but it spewed out a whole bunch of partition errors. After various efforts, here's the current status: It won't boot to the OS from either slot. TWRP says no OS installed. On Slot A, it won't boot to recovery either, and the only thing I can get to is fastboot. On Slot B, I can get to TWRP recovery, but all storage is gone (and I've since done a full wipe so there's nothing on it anyway). Any attempts to do adb push or sideload result in the error "adb: error: failed to get feature set: no devices/emulators found", so I can't install anything unless there's another way I'm not aware of.
I'm trying to get into EDL by powering off the phone, then holding down both volume buttons while I plug in the USB cable. It shows up in Device Manager for about 2-3 seconds as "Qualcomm QDLOADER 9008" and then disappears for a second before going directly into fastboot. I've rebooted my computer to disable device driver signing and install the latest Qualcomm drivers per this guide, but the latest drivers are already installed. I've tried a different USB cable and a different USB port.
1) Is there another way to get into EDL mode?
2) Is there anything else I can try from TWRP, adb, or fastboot?

Was in the same situation few days ago on my 8 Pro not the 9 Pro. Couple of things you could try:
1. The new TWRP had a "Reboot to EDL" option in the advanced section for the first time. Check if the 9 Pro TWRP has the same.
2. My device was only going into fastboot & could boot TWRP, with the same QUALCOMM crashdump error. It would auto power-up the second a cable is inserted, I had to try many reboot-to-EDL programs out there but none worked as the device was playing up. Keep trying MSM.
3. This is weird, but it's what worked with me. The 11.0.4.4 MSM for 8 Pro failed to recognise my device altogether, it's 11.0.3.3 one that worked. With that one, it didn't read the device until maybe the 10th trial. So see if different MSM versions are available for the 9 Pro, and again keep trying MSM.
Good luck.

Thanks for the suggestions. I did try the "Reboot to EDL" option but it didn't work for me. And I think we only have one MSM version for this model so far. I'll keep trying till it works or I figure something else out.

You don't have to stick to one model. You can use MSM of 11.2.2.2 EU or 11.2.4.4 India for example, then flash the stock update of a different region, as long as it's an upgrade not the same version.
I did upgrade from 11.0.6.6 AA to 11.0.8.8 EU locally on my 8 Pro. I would imagine it's the same, haven't tested it on my 9 Pro yet though.

I finally got it flashed back to OOS via TWRP and booting normally again. However, it concerns me that I couldn't ever get EDL working, in case I ever really need it. I'll have to keep working on that "just in case".
After trying several things in various orders, I reformatted /data, after which adb push started working. I was able to push the latest full .zip and after a couple more errors I was able to flash it to both slots and reinstall TWRP. I did get an error when I went to reboot that said something like "No OS installed... are you sure you want to reboot?" however it booted into the OS that time.
Anyway, thanks to those who offered suggestions. I'll update again if I ever figure out what's wrong with EDL.

Use All in One tools. Working really good as far as I can see. Choose Oneples 8 pro device since not updted for Oneplus 9 / Pro. There is an option to reboot to EDL thru this tool.

Seems like a great tool... however, I just tried it and get the same behavior when I use the Reboot to EDL option. It shows up as a Qualcomm device in Device Manager for a couple of seconds and then reboots to system (now that I have a functional OS). It never shows up in MSM Tool.

Hi, I noticed when using the 64 version of Qualcomm driver, my phone would auto boot out of EDL as soon as it would enter it. I had to use a nother version I believe is 32 bit version. That fixed the problem for me. Also usually it's the boot that is messed up when something goes wrong and replacing that will usually fix and if not; replacing correct boot and then wiping data is what worked for me.

Well, you're definitely onto something, but there's still a missing piece. After installing 32-bit drivers I'm able to get the phone into EDL mode... screen is blank and "Qualcomm QDLoader 9008" shows up in device manager, and it actually stays there without the phone trying to boot on its own. However, the phone still doesn't show up in MSM. In device manager it has a yellow triangle and says the driver isn't signed, even though I installed it after doing the advanced reboot to allow unsigned drivers.
Where do you download the latest version of the 32-bit driver from? Maybe the one I found isn't the latest?

I can't remember where I got it from , I believe from 8t forum? I've had it on my Google drive for quite some time. If you would like me to share it I could. I don't remember if I added to the name originally. The name on the file is
Qualcomm_USB_Host_Drivers_1.00.53_20180705_w7_w10(8t_link).exe

I didn't find that version, but I did find a [presumably] newer version 2.1.0.3 32-bit driver that appears to work. The device now shows up in MSM Tool. Thanks for the help!

Can you share a link for that updated 32-bit driver?
If what Samuel Holland suggested is valid in my case as well, that would get rid of the auto-boot issue we struggled with.

The one that worked for me was the 32-bit setup.exe file from this guide. I uninstalled the existing driver I had installed, rebooted, installed this driver, and then EDL worked right away.

Question [SOLVED] Bricked OP9Pro, can't get to fastboot, sahara communication failed

Seems like I succesfully bricked my OP9Pro. Tried to restore in MSMDownloadTool v4.0. Oneplus 9 Pro LE2123.
Phone is detected correctly in Windows device manager(QDLoader 9008, I get to EDL by holding Vol+ and Vol- buttons and connecting the cable). When I try to flash, MSM breaks on Sahara communication failed(FH: 258).
Qualcomm drivers are from Windows Update Center(I connect my phone in EDL mode, click Update and in optional updates section there is the needed driver - Qualcomm Incorporated - Ports).
What should I do?
I saw a python EDL workaround script, but I'm not sure if helps me or if it even works (saw it somewhere on xda, the only thing I remember that it was in some of oneplus's devices thread and the sript name was edl.py, sorry
Tried on one laptop(Acer Nitro< none of the ports gave a succesful result). Gonna try on my second(Asus ROG GL702VMK, it seems to have better ports connection). Gonna write an update message.
I can't get to fastboot, recovery, etc. Phone seems to give no signs of life, there is even no charging notification when the cable is connected(but maybe phone isn't turned off actually, not sure)

You need to click the box to "use lite firehose" beforehand running your msm. And change target to OS or EU depending on which one ur using

Thanks for advice, I got further but now it stopped on Param Preload with "Device not match image"
I use MSMDownloadtool for EU and my phone is EU version(LE2123)

So, I am kinda happy cuz I booted to system.
I used this guide(https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/global-us-unbricking-guide.4370463/). Used MSM Download tool with Indian f/w.
Then I tried to return to EU version, but I got the same param preload error. I used this version of MSM and it flashed successfully.
So now I guess the issue is solved. Thanks @Shooter7889 for ur advice with lite firehose

Uncheck "check sha256" for mismatch device issue. Or find correct msm. You're welcome. I had same issue after bricking my 9pro and not being able to run msm successfully.
