Do not extract the downloaded file. Place it directly in /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/. Boot into xRecovery and select restore and select that file.
Let it restore.....
DONE!
If its still not working, the file you downloaded might be corrupt.

You have to unpack downloaded file to get:
system.img
data.img
cache.img
nandroid.md5
put these files in /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/somefolder/
Go to recovery. Backup and restore. Restore. Select backup name which is the "somefolder" name. Select yes. Reboot.

[Q] Mobilicity PD15IMG.zip for Panache?

Does anyone know if a Mobilicity Panache PD15IMG.zip exists? And if so, where can I find it? I need to send my phone in for replacement/repair.
Although I know a Mobilicity RUU exists, I can't use it because my USB port is damaged and does not transfer data, only power. It isn't a software issue because the USB connection is also not detected by fastboot as well.
I'm currently running a custom ROM, and although it seems possible to unroot the gfree method, I have no way of getting back to stock software since RUUs aren't an option. If anyone knows where I can get a stock Mobilicty PD15IMG.zip (Android 2.3.3, Sense 2.1) and would kindly send me a link, I'd be grateful.

You tried an alternate usb cable and port?

I've tried multiple cables, multiple ports and multiple computers.
Computers show the USB devices, malfunctioning, not recognized, etc.
Fastboot does not show any signs that USB is connected, as it normally would.
Glacier shows that it's charging via USB, but the usual notification for connection type (Charge only, mount USB, tether, etc) does not come up.

You can extract the PD15IMG from your RUU and flash it in HBOOT.

Are there any specific instructions on how to do it or is it self explanatory?
Self explanatory being open RUU as archive and extract, I'm assuming. I'm not at home or near a computer so I can't do it right now. If those are the proper instructions to do so, I'll try it later and report back.

I'm not 100% sure if RUU will open as archive, and if it won't - run it and make several steps in it, just don't get to the flashing part. Then look in the same folder or in %TEMP% (Windows' temp dir) for the huge .ZIP file.
Or just google "extract zip from RUU", 2nd result is this:

The RUU does open as an archive. However, I would consider it to be useless as the files are not in a proper format.

Running it, however and looking for the huge .zip file worked. I have the .zip which contains the following files:
hboot_0.89.0005_20110414.nb0
radio.img
rcdata.img
boot.img
recovery.img
system.img
splash1.nb0

modelid: PD1510000
cidnum: DAVE_001
mainver: 2.09.1800.1
hbootpreupdate:2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Looking at the files contained and the text in the .txt file, I'm guessing that this will be flashable in hboot, since that's how the RUU installs anyways. Thanks for your help, Jack_R1. I'll report back if this works or not.
EDIT: The .zip is accepted by hboot and successfully flashes. Thanks for your help, Jack_R1!

I'm sure it works. Because it's a GUI to the bootimg.exe tool (available for free from Github), which is a modification of the bootimg.py tool (available for free from another Github). The internet is full of "content gateways" where someone wastes their talent on building a do-nothing program instead of something useful, like a tool that allows easy repartitioning/editing of a mmcblk0.raw image.
bootimg.exe --unpack-bootimg boot.img

Sadly for some reason it requires the image being unpacked to be named "boot.img", when it's fully capable of unpacking any "ANDROID!" boot image for both Mediatek and Qualcomm.
I've used it to unpack boot and recovery for a Huawei Y536A1, boot factory laf recovery for a LGL16C, boot dfs dkernel recovery for an Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 7". I've never seen it fail to unpack a boot image yet.

[Request] Create G900I Debricking Image (Simple Steps)

Hi Guys, I have a Bricked Galaxy S5 G900I. (No Screen, No Lights. qhsusb_bulk when plugged into PC)
After some research, I found that I need a debrick.img file to revive my phone.
The Debrick.img file is a backup of the Bootloaders (Which are corrupt on my phone).
If anyone has a Rooted S5 G900I with Busybox, Could You please create a Debrick file for me? Instructions Are Below.
In Terminal Emulator (Download From Playstore) Type -
su
busybox dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/200mb.img bs=4096 count=50000
This will create a 200MB image file on the root of your SD Card.
This file only contains the Bootloaders files. No personal/sensitive info, imei etc.
Could you please upload the file to Mega and send me the link.
If you could I'd really appreciate it and it will also help others with bricked S5 G900Is.:good:
Cheers.

Still no luck?
CQD1?
XSA?
I don't own an "I" variant, to my sorrow.
But you may want to try this hand-made unbrick image: G900I_CQD1_Unbrick.zip
It should work if you were on CQD1.

I'll try writing the image to SD Card and seeing if Odin shows up.
Also, what does CQDI represent?

"CQD1?" represents a question about your phone's firmware version before brick.
It should be the same for unbrick image.
"XSA?" represents a question about CSC of your phone because pit-file version may depend on it.

My phone's firmware is 'CPGH'. Does the previous firmware have to be identical to launch download mode from sd card? (then use odin to flash correct bootloader + firmware)

Yes, from what I've heard.
You can try, definitely.
And if you can direct me to CPGH firmware I'll try to make a debrick image from it.

I've attempted to access Download mode using the G900I CQD1 Unbrick Image. No Luck
After more research, I've found that the firmware code(found in CSC) changes with each update and I'm not sure which update is the one before brick(101 diff updates), But I do know that this is a TNZ Region phone which only has 8 diff firmware updates.

Does it need the specific firmware before brick or can I use the first firmware made?(Maybe they made newer updates compatible with old ones)
Also, after putting sd card in phone, in device manager on pc it has changed from 'qhsusb_bulk' to 'Qualcomm HS-USB qdloader 9008'.

Don't you remember if it was Android 6, 5 or 4? It may help.

What on earth is MiFlash Antirollback check error? Cannot find any solution

Hello
I am trying to flash the global ROM on my K20/Mi 9T, but I am getting a weird error message saying 'antirollback check error'.
I know what anti-rollback is and I can check the ARB value with fastboot, and it was nice and clean 1.
I have seen a xda thread that someone succesfully flashed a rom with anti val = 0 to a device with anti val = 1.

Please help!

Install MiFlash at C:\MiFlash and try again. I got this error once and it was due to the fact that MiFlash has problems with paths containing spaces.

Yup, flashing from C:\ is what fixes this. Horrible programming, had to mess around for a whole day back when I encountered this error.

Man I installed MiFlash in C:\ as u said. But still I'm getting this error. I also tried flashing all the files in 'images' folder manually using fastboot and then flashing the file using miflash. Still the antirollback check error persists. Any solution?

I really don't know what advice to give you. Maybe use a different version of MiFlash?

HEY! put miflash and the tgz file in desktop, create a foler inside miflash named "log"; change the tgz file to a shorter one and try again! worked for me!

Edit .bat/.sh file
Well, I just fixed the same issue and solved it by editing the flash_all.bat or sh file ( windows or Linux). Just comment out initial lines without [ fastboot ] word. These lines are typically a version check.

Tried just to copy only MiFlash folder, error still happens. After copy the firmware into the MiFlash folder, it works fine!

To fix this 1-most flash from C:\MiFlash
2-The firmware folder name most be without spacing like :
(Redmi k30 pro) this is wrong ×
(Redmi_k30_pro) this is right √
