Hi, i was playing with my yota2 and think i messed up the radio files, now the phone is dead, no vibration no screen light, nothing.
i tried some methods and was able to get the phone recognized as 'Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008' but dont know what to do. btw i opened up the phone, is there anyway to revive it or should i just order another one?
Thanks alot
Try flashing it with yotaflasher. Post any errors if they occur.
Hi
My phone does not get recognized. When trying to use yotaflasher it is stuck at 'waiting for device'

Your adb drivers are not loaded on your laptop/PC , there are many threads about this on here. You cannot do a fastboot flash without these drivers.
Run an adb command from a DOS "cmd" window on your laptop to check this, this is explained on here.
i had a hardbrick yotaphone2 also. only qualcomm 9008 detected. had tried all the way to flash it back due to wrong rom being flashed. please advice....no fastboot, tried power off and volume down, tried kick out from EDL mode...tried qualcomm flasher which support EDL flashing but downloaded rom cannot flash due to only img and bin file, there is no rawprogram xml file.....anybody have dumped rom for this phone?
Thank you but did you forget to add the link which command to run ??

Hi there,
I finally got around to try unlocking my axon/root/custom rom and ran into problems right in the beginning.
I'm using the Axon Toolkit 1.1.1 (that should fully work with A2017G) and followed the steps to unlock the bootloader (as afaik fastboot isn't working on the G-Variant before unlock/TWRP).
So I chose option 6-unlock, MiFlash launches and I have to select the folder with the files to flash, following the instructions of the toolkit.
For the record - I'm on MM B08.
The unlock files the AxonToolkit offers are in a folder 'A2017U_FASTBOOT_UNLOCK_EDL' containing a fastboot.img.
Can I use these files or are they only for the A2017U (as the name would suggest)??
My first thought is 'No', but then if the Toolkit is supposed to fully support the A2017G?
There is a also another downloadable file from a different thread called 'TWRP_UnlockBootloader_by_DrakenFX.zip' (by DrakenFX for Generic Device/Other), which sounds more like it, BUT:
This one is normally flashed with TWRP, not MiFlash.
In this thread one would use tenfar's signed (but containing a bug) version of TWRP to install that file BEFORE the bootloader is unlocked.
I'm however keen to jump the flawed version and
- unlock first
- flash TWRP
- flash above fastboot enabler
- flash modem/custom rom (RR) etc.
So could someone please confirm:
With a 2017G (6.0MM B08) is it possible to
- Unlock the bootloader first without using tenfar's 3.0.2 TWRP?
- Which Unlock file should I use? The first one? Or can I use the generic (second) one with MiFlash or TWRP only?
- If that works, did you simply go Advanced Options<Flash boot/bootloader/modem/recovery<choose recovery partition<select C:\Axon7Development\Axon7Toolkit\twrp\twrp-3.1.0-ailsa_ii.img with the Toolkit? (or did you e.g. have to install adb 1.4.2 first to get twrp on the device via adb)
Thanks a lot for the help everyone - I know there are a lot of Guides out there, unfortunately (and I was reading through the whole threads for all of them) it gets more confusing with each one, as they all do things slightly differently, for slightly different versions, etc.
The Toolkit seems like a great start to simplify things a lot, but there is no step-by-step guide how to exactly use it for the 2017G (using what files).
The guide using the toolkit for the A2017G uses it in command line mode - that didn't work for me. Not sure if it's using an older version, but as soon as I start the tool with a command line, it kills the existing process and comes up with the dialog (I'm also on Win7 32-bit, using 32-bit MiFlash)...
@Whoooo?
This guide is suited for you:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-install-twrp-unlock-bl-flash-t3517379
There are some steps that could be simplified, but there are all OK.
Personally I think A2017G is not working well with MiFlash (several problems: difficulty to recognize the phone, MiFlash software is touchy,
many versions, need time window in EDL mode, receive hello packet error etc...). The above guide did not mention MiFlash neither.
Do not use Qualcomm bulk drivers that gives you Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 for use with MiFlash.
Recommendation: Use Zadig (http://zadig.akeo.ie/) to have WinUSB driver for QUSB_BULK. So probably you need to uninstall the driver first ("adb reboot edl", then start Windows
device manager, Uninstall and delete the driver Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008). Unplug and replug the phone, it will appear under unknown device QUSB_BULK.
Run zadig to install driver (select the WinUSB driver) => the phone will appear OK under USB peripheral:
it will be able to receive command from axon7tool in EDL mode.
To answer your questions:
>With a 2017G (6.0MM B08) is it possible to
>- Unlock the bootloader first without using tenfar's 3.0.2 TWRP?
Yes you can do that, before installing TWRP. You can also as in the guide, install TWRP first, then unlock bootloader.
Note: if you choose to unlock the bootloader first, then you can directly install latest TWRP 3.1.1-0 (unsigned) without the need to install the signed tenfar's TWRP first as with locked bootloader, then upgrade TWRP to 3.1.1-0.
The guide is applicable for any version of MM up to V1.0.0B11.
>- Which Unlock file should I use? The first one? Or can I use the generic (second) one with MiFlash or TWRP only?
If you follow the above mentioned guide, you do not need any of these files.
>- If that works, did you simply go Advanced Options<Flash boot/bootloader/modem/recovery<choose recovery partition<select C:\Axon7Development\Axon7Toolkit\twrp\twrp-3.1.0-ailsa_ii.img with the Toolkit? (or did you e.g. have to install adb 1.4.2 first to get twrp on the device via adb)
You want to install TWRP? Follow the mentioned guide.
My own remarks on top of the guide :
Part A) step 15): Go to Device Manager on your pc and verify your Axon 7 is listed as "QUSB_BULK".
You should see the phone correctly installed thanks to Zadig and not unknown device with yellow cross.
Steps 16 to 19 could be skipped (since you can have full ROM image to restore boot/recovery if needed: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/download-center-factory-images-ota-t3606547).
Step 20) In command, type "axon7tool -w recovery": this means you should have in the directory the file recovery.bin which is exact copy of twrp_rec_tenfar.img.
Attention to enable file extension display in Windows.
Part B) steps 1 to 13 could be skipped and replaced by:
Boot into TWRP : either "adb reboot recovery" or Power + Vol Up.
Inside TWRP, flash TWRP_UnlockBootloaderPackage_by_DrakenFX.zip
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24723757092307343
to enable fastboot (this patch aboot and fastboot so fastboot command to unlock bootloader will be accepterd).
Then follow steps 14 to 18.
Note: if you do not enter TWRP immediately in step 17) after unlock procedure, maybe you will boot to system (Android),
and probably password asked, cancel, boot to TWRP and format data (ext4fs): Power + Volume Up (or if you can boot to system, type command "adb reboot recovery").
Note: important: in TWRP do not allow system modifications. If you allow system modifications and not flash no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip
or not flash SuperSU 2.79 immediately, you will get in trouble at boot.
Now update TWRP (if not yet done): boot in to TWRP, Install, Image, choose latest TWRP 3.1.1-0 taken from
https://eu.dl.twrp.me/ailsa_ii/
File twrp-3.1.1-0-ailsa_ii.img
md5 94018d5d92a89657ccd0420a0464859b
then check "boot partition".
Reboot to recovery and check that TWRP is the latest.
Done. Now with unlocked bootloader and TWRP latest version, you can do anything with the phone
(backup/restore, install latest stock Marshmallow or Nougat with TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/stock-rom-a2017g-twrp-flashable-images-t3599069,
flash SuperSU2.79 for root, install custon ROM with TWRP...).

What?? Zadig drivers never worked for me on MiFlash. Also if you restart the EDL mode (vol up+dn+power) if you do something and it fails, it will probably work. I've been using MiFlash a lot on A2017G and don't have all those problems you mentioned
Using Controllerboy's guide would be better though, true
Hi there,
And thanks a lot both of you!
I think that pins down my problem:
- I cannot use Controllerboy's guide as the linked axontool works only on Win64 and the Toolkit for Win32 doesn't support command line...
- I managed to get the QUSB_Bulk driver installed, but MiFlash needs Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008?? Can anyone confirm this? And how do I get these back again?
- Still not sure if the 'A2017U_FASTBOOT_UNLOCK_EDL' is the right file to flash - I noticed the trial Toolkit (v1.2) has a different one?
So I either now need a guide to use the newest Toolkit version, or get MiFlash running with the right file (starting with the Unlock)...

Did you mean that you run Windows 32-bit so you can't use axon7toolkit (64-bit)?
To get back Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 needed for MiFlash, in EDL mode, in Windows device manager, uninstall the driver QUSB_BULK and check option delete the driver. Unplug and replug the phone, then under unknown device QUSB_BULK install the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 driver from Qualcom bulk driver (qcser.inf).

Hi there,
Yes, the version you linked doesn't work on Win 32 - hence I#m using this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/tool-axon7toolkit-t3573108
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to support command line.
I reinstalled the Qualcomm drivers - MiFlash now detects the phone, but when I try to select the package it first complains 'cannot find script', then it shows an error 'cannot receive hello package' and times out after trying to reset the status... aaargh

For MIFlash problems, I already mentioned. I cannot even get MiFlash to recognize my phone, while similar tool like Qualcom Qfil/QPST can without problem.
You said "the version you linked doesn't work on Win 32" : I did not understand. Which one, axon7tool-1.5-win64.exe ? This is command line tool only.

Hi there,
Yes, that's (one of) my problem(s), the axon7tool-1.5-win64.exe doesn't work (even in command line) on Win 7 32-bit. At least for me...
EDIT:
Aaaaaargh: MiFlash, 'Run as Admin' and the fastboot package flashed successful.... no problems by the looks of it.
Also no idea how to check if the bootloader is really unlocked...
OK I did not realize that you are running Windows 7 32-bit, this is why axon7tool-1.5-win64.exe (64-bit) of course could not be run.
I think the best for you is manage to find out a computer running Windows 64-bit and use axon7tool-1.5-win64.exe (EDL mode, QUSB_BULK WinUSB driver) to install TWRP (tenfar). Once TWRP installed, you can then use your Windows 7 32-bit to unlock bootloader, upgrade TWRP, flash stock ROM, flash custom ROM etc... all using TWRP as I mentioned previously.
OK, got it (I think I will post a guide here soon, clarifying some things) -
I now hav unlocked bootloader and TWRP 3.1.
Question, with dm-verity, do I swipe to 'allow modifications' before flashing e.g. RR? Or do I flash a non-stock kernel first (or does RR use a different one)? And if, which one?
Sorry for the stupid question, I haven't read up on dm-verity before...

so i try to unlock the bootloader [GUIDE] Temporary unlock bootloader to flash partitions on Nougat
instead of flashing the emmc_appsboot_service.mbn, I flash prog_emmc_firehose_8937.mbn I've downloaded before.
I didn't see that attachment file in the bottom of the post stupid me!
after executing fastboot reboot-bootloader, my phone gone blank.
I see on Device Manager there's other devices with warning sign QHSUSB__BULK
I updated with Qualcomm driver it changed to Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E
I've tried power+vol up, show nothing, QFIL & OST LA doesn't work.
my last effort is tried to boot from external sdcard like in this thread Fixing a bootloader-bricked Galaxy S3
is that posible on nokia 5 TA-1053?
if so, can you guys do me a favor please?
I need that dump file. Thanks in advance.
can you guys who have rooted their phone create .img file please?
Code:
su
busybox dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/debrick.img bs=1M count=128
and upload it somewhere.
Thanks :crying:
This is exactly what i did.. any news regarding this post....
I've got a Moto e4 Qualcomm xt1768 (non-Amazon ads version) which I had previously successfully unlocked the bootloader on and rooted. Was messing around recently and managed to (I think) ruin the partition table. It no longer gives any indication of powering on, but if I plug it into a computer right after popping the battery out and in again it's showing up in HS-USB mode as a Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008. From my research it seems like, with the correct files, I could recover by either flashing something via QFIL (some kind of firehose image?) or possibly getting into fastboot by dd writing a full emmc backup of a working device to an SD card. Unfortunately I don't have either of those things for this device.
If anyone has either of those things already, or might be willing to do a dd dump of their xt1768 for me to try the SD card method, or has other information for me that would help me recover the device, I would be forever grateful.
You need a stock firmware to revive your phone and nothing else. As far as it is detected by computer.
I tried the sdcard dump method and it did not work. Without a new leaked image the new e4 cannot be restored from the qualcomm bootloader.
Heres the loader.img i made before my phone was bricked. If you find a way to use this or a blankflash file that works with our phone please let me know

Follow the xt1767 instructions here

You can use the driver.cab from

then download

and flash the individual paritions via fastboot
Awesome! Can confirm that this worked and brought my bricked xt1768 back to life. Thank you!
Sorry to bump, but I also wanted to confirm that this worked for me as well. Did a successful restore but didnt realize that the firmware version I downloaded had an older bootloader so it bricked my phone. Finally found this post and all is well again!

Help me My friend
I need the Blankflash file for the xt1767 / xt1768 I have my phone in hard brick, I need to start it in fastboot mode. help me with the file as I can't find it.
Does anyone has any instruction for XT1762 ?
What I did I have installed Lineage 14 on it and it worked well, then I found a 16 version and wanted to install it. After that it would not boot into anything. Didn't help to reinstall 14 or wipe or anything. Then I downloaded a factory image, but it might have been the wrong one and I flashed all the files preloader, boot, oem, system, etc. After that it would not do anything. Now if I plug it in the computer I only see the white LED on, and if I press long the power button then in "lsusb" it shows up for 2 seconds as MediaTek Inc. MT65xx Preloader.
Is it still possible to recover it? I would greatly appreciate any help.
Hi! I am following this guide: https://www.droidviews.com/unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-and-root-zte-axon-7-a2017g/, and after using the axon7tool to install TWRP my device seems to be bricked and only shows up as QUSB_BULK in device manager - as if its in EDL mode. Adb doesn't recognize it - and the axon7tool throws a runtime error, I have seen previously when it couldn't detect the device
S: failed to read command
S: Failed to receive hello
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
what(): error: Unknown error

. I have tried using the MiFlashtool but I can't seem to find the right ROM - it always gives me a couldn't find flash script error. I have tried using both the Qualcomm and both ADB axon7 USB drivers (https://androidfilehost.com/?w=file...2ca06f4305d7074d4465bc289db2d49d5f99cdde608bf) and both of them yield the exact same result. What should be my next step of action, should I try to save the current firmware or get MiFlashTool working?
Update: let the phone die, then I booted into android, used abd to get into EDl which again showed a blackscreen and the edl tool nor miflash seem to be able to work as if its not in edl but in DFU and the DFU multitool cant get it out of there. Booting by pressing the volume up button and power button, causes a blackscreen with the same problem.
