Mine motog5s updated to stock fw and root uninstalled after it it hangs on boot screen. I flashed stock fw again with fastboot but after restart mobile didn't display anything not even vibrate just blinking notification when connect usb wire . how to unbrick only shows qualcomm hs dloader 9008 what to do, pls. reply.
You cannot log into fastboot mode?
qualcomm hs dloader 9008 = EDL mode, you should be able to restore with QFIL: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/MOTO-E-1st-Gen/Moto-E-Not-Boot-Up/td-p/3231144 but it looks like motorola doesn't provide the files ... most likely you'll need a service center
Do not use QFIL. To unbrick, we need the blankflash file for G5S. And it is not on the Internet yet. Do not use the blankflash of any other models. Your best bet is to take the phone to a service center.

Did you try holding the power down button and turning on the phone to enter bootloader?
Thanks for the reply the service center guys sayin as bootloader is unlocked out of warranty. They said mobile is rooted without checking the mobile as its not turning on, how they can say that its rooted . They just talking on phone with other persons but cant provide any solution what can be done.
Please provide any other solution.

You downloaded the unlock key from Moto website by giving them your device serial number. That's how they know you unlocked bootloader. Service center won't help you. But fortunately, there is a way to revive your phone. But I'm not getting the blankflash file anywhere.
Tell me what exactly did you do to your phone.
Thank you,
Ok I just flahsed & tried stock roms, root & custom roms. Then I flashed stock rom of mine region firmware npp26.102.19 then motorola gave the updates to npp26.102.55-1 Dec. patch. Then next day new update came Feb patch npp26.102.55-4 just after it mobile started hanging & when restart it stuck on boot, not booting just stuck on boot animation. I tried TWRP recovery it said encrypted then I entered the unlock pin then it shows all the folders. Then I again fastboot npp26.102.19 to solve the issue but after flashing & restart it did not boot nor screen on no vibration tried several times but no response, when connect with pc or charger a white notification light blinking only & it detected as QHUSB_BULK something like that then I searched for it & install driver then shows as qualcomm dloader 9008.
Ok you should never flash an older bootloader over never one. It's a classic mistake that you made. I suppose we need the blankflash file to repair your phone. Let's wait to see what senior devs say.

Hey, i have unlock the bootloader of my phone and flash the updated rom in my device. After that my phone is just off, i press the power button but it don't turn on, connect do pc or chargers but it not turn on, that is the hard brick, can i have a solution to this?
I have this:
"The Hardbrick tutorial you always craved for
Let's get some things straight
Forget flashing stock firmware anymore this makes permanent changes to your phone's firmware but this is the only thing that will resurrect the fallen lad
Requirements
Albus blankflash
Qualcomm drivers
Adb and fastboot
Bootloader from Albus
Steps
Get the Qualcomm drivers installed… make sure you disable Driver Signature Enforcement for your windows version
Run the script in albus blankflash to get into a dummy bootloader
Now flash bootloader and partition files and recovery from addison2potter.zip
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Now try flashing a stock firmware it will flash but you will not be able to boot right now
Now flash or boot TWRP recovery
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
fastboot boot TWRP.img
Now flash the debloated stock ROM or the TWRP Flashable stock build by Gtrcraft
(This is needed to get RIL back )
You should be able to boot into the stock ROM now
Now you can go back to TWRP and flash any ROM of your choice ".
But i don't know if it will work, because i don't know if this files can match my model: moto g5s xt1792
And sorry but i can't post links yet.
Please Help Us.

So is it not switch on or displaying anything.
I unlocked eh bootloader , installed twrp then after flashing magisk ,I got a bootloop.
Afterwards i tried to flash the stock rom ,but I got the mismatching device and rom error, so decided to install a custom rom .
After I installed pixel experience P and THE SYSTEM IS DESTROYED.
So I went back to the stock rom and edited the Flash_all.bat file removing everything but the flash commands.
now I have bricked phone and I can't enter EDL mode . when I plugg it in Usb I get HS-USB Diagnostics 900E.
Any suggestion is welcome

Just go to fastboot mode and type: "fastboot oem edl"
If you can´t enter fastboot, you have to open your phone and connect the testpoints, then connect cable to pc and releas the test-points
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhsRv42rsqI - here for the redmi 6 pro (same hw as mi a2 lite) - in min 2, the test points are shown!

1- install mi flash tool and Qualcomm driver on your Pc
2- open the phone (just remove the battery connector )
3-plug a USB cable in the device
4- short the jtag pins(you can find their location in this page www mobilerdx com/2018/09/xiaomi-redmi-6-pro-test-point-boot-into-edl-9008-mode.html
7-plug the USB cable in the Pc while shortening the pins
If you do these steps mi flash tool should reconize your device and you will be able to flash it
Hi it's me again
i've bicked my phone last week, it only shows the image of realme and then a text that says the boot/recovery image have been destroyed, the problem with this brick its THE BOOTLOADER ITS BLOCKED AND THE PHONE CANT START THE RECOVERY, so the options are pretty limited, plus my device is china version.
The things and tools that i've been trying are:
*ADB FASTBOOT (i know i already said that the bootloader it's blocked but i had to try)
*Qualcomm snapdragon flash tool QIFL
*Qualcomm premium tool
*XTM Inferno tool
*OPPO download tool
*MSMDownload tool
Yeah, i've tried a few things already (not too much to be honest), but with everyone theres a problem.
Adb dont recognice because its not in fastboot, QIFL needs a xml file but the roms don't have it, and i dont know how to program it, XTM inferno tool dont recognice the device, and oppo and msm download tool needs an account, if anyone knows what can i do now, please let me know, i'm a little bit sad cause i haven't made it to unbrick
So sad that you can't enter fastboot. It seems that means you can't send commands to your phone.
Recently, I saved my "soft brick" China version RMX. I also get "boot/recovery image have been destroyed" notification, but I can enter fastboot mode (power+Volume-), and my fastboot is unlocked. I used "fastboot flash recovery" cammand to flash TWRP and another command for vbmeta (https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...very-unofficial-twrp-realme-x-stable-t3959556). However, the response in "Windows Command Prompt" is "Failed unknown error".
So I decided to power off and charge my phone. After power off, there is thunder icon, a symbol for charging in powe off state, on the screen. Sunddenly, the phone boot into TWRP automaticly. I connected it to my laptop at once and find TWRP MTP service works which means I can copy the 2.6 GB stock Color OS zip (RMX1901CN_flashable_A17.zip, https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-x/how-to/guide-to-stock-rom-stock-recovery-t3974607
, https://sourceforge.net/projects/rmx1901/files/custom_recovery_StockROM_flashable_files/) to internal storage (/sdcard), and I installed it successfully, though there was "Unmount to mount storage" error when I wiped Data in TWRP.
Reboot to system succesfully and showed Color OS setting guide, which showed at the first time you turn on the phone. Recovery changed to oppo stock Recovery, but the unlocked fastboot mode didn't change.
I am not sure wether the link is useful for cracked MSMDownload tool :https://www.techoxygen.com/msm-download-tool/

Flash official ofp format stock ROM in EDL mode might be helpful. The links offer ofp ROM, guide & password for download tool. An XDA post also mentioned this link. But I'm still confused about the difference between RMX1901 and RMX1901EX model. Some custom ROM is universal for India and China variant on XDA .

Hi dude, at this time I have not found a way to do it without realme tech support, or remote flash tool.
This device needs a “permission” of realme servers to get flashed. If your device is India version you can ask to boy cracker staff, if your device is China version maybe combine file staff can help.
If you have the option of send it to realme tech support, you should take it

Hello,
I'm using Redmi Note 5 pro. Recently my device went on boot loop. Whenever I tried to restart, it was showing MI Logo for long time, nothing happens. I'm not able to enter into recovery mode as well (Vol Up + Power). But I can go to Fastboot mode (Vol down + power key).
Mine is not bootloader unlocked and I dont think I have enabled OEM Unlocking from the settings.
I tried downloading the ROM from below URL (Rom for Fastboot flash) -> whyred_global_images_V11.0.3.0.PEIMIXM_20191108.0000.00_9.0_global
http://c.mi.com/in/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
http://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fullromdownload.php?d=whyred_global&b=F&r=global&n=
When I check, whether the fastboot devices is showing mine or not, I can see my device listed
In another forum, I can across this, before flashing using MiFlash, they asked to download the Edl.cmd file from the below link and run it. I did that as well.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an.../guide-how-to-reboot-to-edl-fastboot-t3394292
After that, when I select the downloaded ROM, and try to flash it with MiFlash (v2019.12.6.0), it keep showing the below line. but its not getting errored out. progress bar keeps going till the end but it stays with the below status. Attached the screenshot as well.
fastboot %* getvar product 2>&1 | findstr /r /c:"^product: *whyred" || echo Missmatching image and device
Any help with will be much helpful! Thanks in advance!

I accidentally locked my chinese whyred while flashing global rom using miflash.
The only thing that worked for me was EDL flash chinese rom using QFIL following the tutorial here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/how-to/fix-arb-bricked-device-qfil-t3841780
I had to use chinese rom for 360 hours until I could unlock the bootloader again.
You need to flash the rom version that matches your device origin (global, china, india, russia, etc..)

Hello, Thanks for letting me know about this method. I tried this but I'm not able to find my devices showing in Device Manager as "qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008" (I'm trying with fastboot mode as am not able to go to Recovery mode)

You're in fastboot. not EDL mode.
EDL Testpoint - https://youtu.be/dYVR5BgNwG0
Connect the usb cable to both phone and pc, disconnect the battery flex cable, short the two EDL testpoint, and connect the battery flex cable. it will take some practice.
Also, there is a limited time in EDL mode to start flashing, if you too late you will have to repeat again.
Use this tutorial https://youtu.be/ikGsxf_s-zw
It seems shorting pins and edl flashing is the only way for reviving ur phone pal
Good luck
Hi and thanks for reading--
I followed this guide for my new LG820UMBK Verizon Unlocked:
Guide LG G8/G8x/v50 Bootloader Unlock and Magisk Root using Firehose
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any problems from using this guide. Works for G8, G8s, G8x, and v50 Confirmed working on G8 and v50 Requirements: Android 10 QFIL...
forum.xda-developers.com
I flashed the engineer abl_a and abl_b and my first hangup was to enter Fastboot mode I hold Vol+ instead of Vol- as the guide says. But it tooks several reboots and flashing back to the backup abl to figure that out. My device in Fastboot mode isnt recognized by my PC with the fastboot devices command. It is recognized by Device Manager however as Other devices: Android.
Upon boot it gets stuck at VZW splash screen. I can enter EDL mode but when I try to restore my backup abl_a+b it says Data Overflow do you wish to continue. If I select yes it wont flash the backup abl with the size of 32,768 kb. It leaves the abl files at 1,024 kb which was the size of the engineer file.
I can boot to Fastboot but my fastboot devices commands can't see the device. In Device Manager like I said in Fastboot mode it just shows up as Other Devices: Android. On the Verizon spash screen it appears in Device Manager as LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COM3) and in EDL mode it shows up under Ports as: Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM11).
I ran the LG Mobile Support Tool and it installed all the proper drivers it says. Maybe I dont have the adb/fastboot drivers? I tried to find them in the SDK but its way more complicated than it used to be. I havent rooted since the LG G2 lol.
Any ideas or help would be so awesome. Its basically bricked cause I cant flash the ABL backups. LGUP program doesn't recognize the device, I did download the correct G820UM20i_00_VZW_US_OP_1124.kdz file so maybe i'll just attempt to restore the stock rom. Can I do that with QFIL??
I cant believe I'm the only person this happened to....
Thanks for any thoughts!!

Boot to EDL mode by holding the vol - and power button while your G8 is plugged in your computer, after you hear a disconnection sound immediately press the vol + until you hear a connection sound from your computer.
Now, open QFIL then look for the abl a and b then flash your backed up abl_a nd abl_b accordingly and reboot. And you're good to go again.
I can help you. Do you fix problem ???
I am having some issues with rooting my g8 at&t I managed to successfully unlock the bootloader but now I am stuck in a bootloop after trying to flash magisk.

I used the method in that thread to unlock and try to root. When I flashed majisk is when my problem started. I have tried flashing the backup files I made but that doesn't help either

So you are saying you bootloop after you use QFIL to flash Magisk-patched boot_a and boot_b? Do "backup files" mean the original boot_a and boot_b that you flash back using QFIL?
If so, you should double check you are flashing the correct partitions in QFIL because neither of these steps seem like they can result in bootloop. LGUP and start over.

I'm new to the G8 (not LG), so just now browsing these posts.
First and foremost, this thread shouldn't be in this forum. This forum is for roms, kernels, recoveries and other development.
This thread is a question about a guide (which is in guides forum). This 'question' is not development of a rom, kernel or recovery, it's a question.
I'd suggest, if you want people to respond that can help, ask the question in it's individual guide thread, that's where the people that know the most about it will be. If you get no response in that thread, then maybe think about posting the question in the questions forum.
but here? in dev forum? absolutely the wrong place for a question about a guide.
cheers
Thread moved to Q&A section.
Thanks!

So to the original OP; 2 things; If your device isn't recognized when in fastboot mode, that's because you don't have the right driver installed in WinBlows.
You have to download the LG USB drivers, install them, then in device manager select the "! Android" and install the driver (usually says ADB) and then 'fastboot devices' will see the phone.
Second; if you ever get a message telling you that 'Data Overflow' then you are absolutely making a big mistake. When you did the backup of your abl(s) (and other partitions), you should have renamed then one by one, that way you don't make the mistake of naming the laf_a partition as the abl_a partition (or any name other than what ti should be). If you flash the wrong partition you run the risk of overwriting the nearby partition, which would make the device essentially unusable except only to qfil.
Lastly, yer lucky the device is VZW, as they make their kdz available and you can use use lg up to get back to stock. If it was Sprint or At&t you'd be scrambling to find a qfil or bkerler backup someone luckily made that you come across (a much more unlikely scenario).
Good luck, you've probably already moved on from this, but just in case, thought I'd mention the above.
cheers

Unfortunately at&t doesn't make their kdz available. You can be 99.9% positive the only thing this person that wants to charge you 30$ is going to give you is the partitions backed up by qfil or bkerler edl stuff.
With both at&t and sprint, because no kdz, you can only restore (if you didn't back up the files yourself originally), with someone elses backup, and then you have to use qfil or bkerler edl utilities to restore. If you look around in the G8 forums (or the tele group), there's a decent chance someone has already make their backup available.
cheers and good luck.

Lol no still haven't solved my problem. I need the abl_a and abl_b files for a lg g8 at&t. My phone only goes in fastboot or qfil and Fastboot says its a lmg850um because I tried using the files from my lg g8x and it didn't work. I have also now bricked my lg g8x it only boots into qfil. Any help would be great. My g8x is canada version
