Hard Bricked 6T (No TWRP, OEM locked, MSM not working) - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Hello dear community,
I've been playing with my 6t for a long time, hundreds of custom roms, kernels, etc..
Lastly I went to official oxygen 10. I tried to install twrp via fastboot but every time I tried to push the files, I would get a error. I reinstalled drivers, tried different ports, different tools..
I got mad and blindly followed some article where someone suggested putting "persist" in the fastboot command, I tried it, I thought it is some kind of "force push" the file and that is how I probably corrupted persist partition. DUMB
Phone not booting of course and I went to restore it with Msmdownload tool.
It did not fixed it.
I tried different versions of msm, I tried going to Hydrogen, tried different USB ports, tried type C ports, different PCs...
No luck, phone is stuck at bootloop, with no TWRP and bootlocked.
I read somewhere that Msmdownload tool is not flashing persist partition and I assume that is the reason why my phone can't be restored.
Fastboot commands are not working anymore and EDL mode is probably the only possible way to communicate with the device.
I live in Montenegro and I can't send phone to oneplus to repair it.
I searched the threads and noticed that some users with similar problem eventually succeed to restore the phone by flashing it with Msm multiple times. I am still trying to do it but no luck.
I would really appreciate help from dev mastermind.
Thank you!

If your bootloader is locked again, i think it is not possible to use Msn tool. I think the only way is to send it for repair if you can't boot the phone.
But maybe i'm wrong and someone else know the sollution.

Thank you for response, but I think that msmdowload tool is made mainly to be able to flash even locked bootloaders, although I am not 100% sure...

You are correct. Msm tool will work on locked bootloader.

Man that sucks. Seems like you might be screwed. I screwed up a couple times getting to A10 but I was able to get msm tool to work for me. You are using it while your phone is powered off, correct?

Try different version of android with msm tool. Like try using the Android 10 msm tool then try the Android 9 msm tool

Hi GeekMcLeod, That's right, I boot it in bootloader mode, select "turn off" just to be sure that phone is shut down. And then I hold volume up and volume down together and plug the cable so it goes in EDL mode. Windows recognize it just as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008, and that is all right I think.
Then I start MSMdownload tool and it flashes everything in around 200 seconds. I leave phone pluged in while it try to boots, but it never boot up. I left it for 45 minutes but still nothing...

I tried several versions. I was hoping to find Android 10 tool for oneplus 6t but it is still not available.

Sounds like a driver problem to me. Try gathering a few (by Google, OnePlus, perhaps even Samsung) and keep trying different ones. I had to do this on my OnePlus One years ago. Then suddenly I found one that worked and I could revive it back from the dead. Not saying that it would work for you but it might. In my case it was a Qualcomm tool. If you still end up with nothing but dead ends today, I'd initiate a chat with OnePlus on this page (select your country at the bottom of the page first).

The only solution is to use smt mode inside msmdownloadtool, which will restore persist partition, but with some disadvantages.
Be aware that you WILL LOSE YOUR IMEIs and WIDEVINE L1, use it at your own risk.
If you decide to do it (remember you WILL LOSE YOUR IMEIs and WIDEVINE L1!) follow this:
1.- Run MSMDownloadTool.
2.- Click on Verify and wait till it says "MD5 Check OK!".
3.- Then click on SMT Mode.
4.- Then click on Start like you would normally do with upgrade mode.
5.- The you need to enter as password "te123" and select your phone's capacity.
6.- If it says something like "Port disabled by user", go to the top left corner and click on "SMT", "COM Setup" and check everything, then click on the left button, and retry steps 4-5.
7.- When the process finishes the phone won't reboot, so you'll need to hold VolumeUP+Power until it powers on, then wait around 5 minutes and your phone will be back to life!!
8.- If you have an IMEI backup, just follow this guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/guide-oneplus-6t-unlock-bootloader-t3851789) (I don't know if this is the correct way to post links)
I hope you get your phone fixed.

Don't go to edl mode. Just have your phone powered off and use msm tool. I used it a couple times while getting to A10 and I only ever had to power my phone off.

@Papagaj do this....thats the only fix....I purposely wipe persist for to test something and I did that to recover from the boot loop.. persist store sensor information that vital to getting phone to boot....that's why it not booting..kernel is look for the sensor info but can't find it

Timmmmaaahh I am so glad to see you on my thread! I learned fundamentals of flashing on your guides back in Bacon days, and never bricked it even once! But this A/B partitions really gave me headaches....
It is highly likely that drivers are causing problem, I tried to flash it with msm tool on fresh windows where I let it to automatically download required drivers and the msm progress appear to be same as when I used drivers which are recommended by msmtool developer. I will try several more and will be back with results within few hours.

Is there a way to backup IMEI and WIDEVINE L1 at this moment? I think it is highly unlikely because functionality is limited to EDL only....
Or is there a way I can restore it later if I manage to fix a device with smt mode?

How do you mean? I can't get phone connected with msm tool if it is not in EDL mode.. It is not recognized when in stock recovery, bootloader or trying to boot up OS, that is only three states this phone can be at the moment.

I recently got stuck in a weird bootloop thing with a, what i think was, corrupted boot.img. Try finding a stock android boot.img, boot to fastboot, and run the command fastboot flash boot <boot.img> on both partition A and B. If you can't find a stock boot.img, i managed to find one and can link to a download.

All right, here is the situation.
I finally managed to boot up the phone. amt911 gave working instructions on post #10. Thank you bro, you are awesome, and Thank you Tech_Savvy for confirming the method, you are badass who deletes partitions just for fun!
All right I got the phone booted up but as amt911 mentioned, I lost my IMEI numbers, without IMEI numbers you can't dial numbers, receive calls or use mobile data.
BACKUP IMEI NUMBERS FOLKS, you never know when the partitions will screw you over!
I was dumb one without backup and I had to contact Oneplus support for help. I was suprised how quickly I got into communications with one of the assistants.. in less than 10 seconds.
They ask you to do full reset via stock recovery and some other basic troubleshoots, after nothing, obviously, fix the missing IMEI they will arrange remote session to get your phone fixed.
You have to persist on remote session as some of assistants told me that I have to send the phone to repair.
Before they arrange session for you, you need to show them "proof of the purchase" ALSO KEEP THAT FOLKS I lost mine long time ago but luckily I found photo of invoice I took when I bought phone, phew*
I didnt have it at first when I contacted them and they say there is nothing they can do without a proof! DON'T STEAL PHONES FOLKS and then ask for support...
They will contact me for session within 48 hours and I will share the experience here.
Thank you again people!

Thank you JTVivian for helpful suggestion, but that method would not work. When your bootloader is locked, fastboot commands are useless, you can't flash anything.

Softbricked axon 7, need help !

Hey guys, I have a A2017 axon 7, and I tried to upgrade from Marshmalow to nougat by flashing the B04 update from TWRP. I have now the factory recovery mode, and when I try to go in fastboot, it tries to launch the bootloader( which just tells me that my device software cannot be checked for corruption and that I need to lock my bootloader). When I try to boot normally it stays on the same "bootloader screen" and tells me to press the start button which makes the phone display the linux logo.... I'm a bit lost, I'm on ArchLinux could you pls help me ?
Thx !

Well, you should use MiFlash and install the stock system through EDL. The problem is that MiFlash is for Windows x64. if you could get a win10 x64 pc, you could fix it in a minute.
Or get to the recovery if you can, and flash Nougat again but via an SD card. But maybe you won't be able to get to the recovery mode

I need help! I wanted to relock the bootloader but then I coulnd't enter the recovery or fastboot anymore. When I press any combination it always turn on for 1 sec and then the screen turns off again but it still GOT recognized as QUSB Bulk. After I installed MiFlash the device is recognized as QDLOADER 9008. I didn't flash anything and I don't kno how to unbrick my device now .
I use the A2017G model btw.

How did you relock the bootloader? If you used a guide, you should have found a warning, and if you used axon7toolkit a message should've popped up.
You messed up. Real bad. You are probably on DFU mode, and the only ways to get out of there are:
-discharge the battery completely and try to enter FTM mode (i think you have to do that while it is connected to a PC), I think it was with volume down + power. this method works for very few people. If you enter ftm mode, issue 'adb reboot edl' and use MiFlash right away with a FULL_EDL package
-use the 4th category brick repair manual (disassemble the phone, short some pins)

I think DFU Mode is when I get recognized as ZTE Handset diagnostic .... according to this guide : https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/a2017-4th-category-brick-repair-manual-t3585898) It's a2017 but still.
"Axon 7 restore manual from bricked conditions when only ZTE Handset Diagnostic Interface(DFU) (COM...) mode is detected"
But I get recognized as QDloader 9008 and miflash also recognizes it as com10 or something.

it's not necessarily like that. DFU mode is just a mode in which the phone can be. Sometimes Windows just installs the QDLoader driver even though it's not EDL. and if you tried miflash and it didn't work, then it's most probably that.
There's a way to check. If you go to Properties, there should be a number that identifies the mode. if you google it and 'dfu interface' appears, then you are dfu-bricked
But if you locked the bootloader without being fully stock then it's most probably dfu bricked anyways
Again, how did you lock the bootloader?
I don't actually know if I really locked the bottloader.
So, I had unlocked bootloader and twrp. I just bootet into the bootloader, typed "fastboot oem lock" in adb and it said OK on the PC.
But on the phone it never asked me if I want to lock it or anything. And I never said MiFlash isn't working. It recognizes my phone but i judt didn't TRY to flash anything because I didn't want to make the situation even worse perhaps

Lol it doesn't ask you if you want to lock it, that's the point with bootloader mode. there's no system, no UI, and you make stuff via commands.
This is why you shouldn't even attempt this kind of stuff without knowing how it works. At least if you had used axon7toolkit, it would've told you not to.
Find a FULL_EDL package for your model. If you have an A2017, simply use this one:
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634790942
or
https://mega.nz/#!JqwEUDCa!lW3NDaBNbmMxhtw6XajspHBJaaEmLC8uNvMZS5ww0EQ
(they are the same file)
Unzip it, leave the folder somewhere handy, put the phone in what you believe is EDL, open MiFlash and select the folder, and flash

Okay let me tell you this real straight. I have done this. I have the G packages, I just thought you were the op for some reason. Look at the back of the phone and confirm whether you have an A2017G or an A2017 just in case, or you might mess up even more, as hard as that can be.
at any rate, your fears are all dumbfounded, because in the situation that you are in, you have 3 options:
a) disregard all the help that i'm trying to give you, even though I have already done the process; and keep your brick on a shelf.
b) search on google or xda yourself, then do the process, without bothering here with your lack of trust
c) follow my advice and do the damn process
Whichever option you choose, I'm gonna leave the package here:

Again, I HAVE FOLLOWED THE 4TH CATEGORY BRICK REPAIR GUIDE AND FIXED MY G. I flashed stuff through EDL at least 10 times. And there wouldn't be a bunch of EDL packages for the G if they had a 100% chance of bricking your phone
So. If you decide to do this, turn your phone off. connect the USB cable to the PC but not the phone. Hold both volume buttons (but not the power button) and insert the USB cable at the same time. Then fire up MiFlash and try to flash the file (you have to unzip the folder, then select the folder on miflash, then flash. Here 2 things may happen:
a) it flashes and you can just go bother someone else
b) it doesn't and you have to follow the 4th category brick repair guide
Simple as that. if it fails, you might want to check if the 'Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008' is actually EDL mode or DFU mode, so you can do that by going to properties and checking some device identifier number on google (haven't done that, i just read that it can be done somewhere here).

THANKS SO MUCH , you saved my ass, it flashed without a problem and sorry for bothering you. Bootloader is locked now and it works fine. Thanks again!

Can't flash EDL rom MiFavor UI 5.2 BETA please help. EDL errors!

Help please
When I try to flash the edl rom folder I get a error in miflash "cannot receive hello packet" and "can not read from port com9".
I tried almost all of the different official miflash versions including betas and still the same error.
I've never had this problem with any other edl roms.
Rooted,twrp, and unlocked bootloader.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you
You can try using the MiFlash and Qualcomm drivers in @jcadduono's EDL thread (pinned at the top of the Development subforum). Just make sure you uninstall MiFlash first, and also uninstall the Qualcomm drivers from Device Management (cant remember what it's called, QUSBBulk or something). Enable the viewing of hidden devices and check all categories, should be under Ports or USB.
To install the drivers, first go into EDL while plugged in. Extract the Qualcomm zip, then right click on the files that end with .inf, then click Install. There are 3.
If you have ever used Zadig, then its' WinUSB drivers must be removed too.
Another thing, power off the phone with cable unplugged from it, then go into EDL with VolUp+VolDown+Power (in that order). When the light at upper left of screen blinks red, you're in EDL. Just to be safe, restart EDL again with the button combo before plugging cable into phone.
I have no plans to flash stock Oreo, but I figured I could help anyway. I personally have never gotten errors with EDL, by doing the above.

To install the drivers, first go into EDL while plugged in. Extract the Qualcomm zip, then right click on the files that end with .inf, then click Install. There are 3.
If you have ever used Zadig, then its' WinUSB drivers must be removed too.
Another thing, power off the phone with cable unplugged from it, then go into EDL with VolUp+VolDown+Power (in that order). When the light at upper left of screen blinks red, you're in EDL. Just to be safe, restart EDL again with the button combo before plugging cable into phone.
I have no plans to flash stock Oreo, but I figured I could help anyway. I personally have never gotten errors with EDL, by doing the above.

I tried all of that and still getting same error.
Thank you though
I never had this problem
did ya ever get it sorted out? i ask bc i have been in edl hell with two boards, neither of which will accept a full flash. ive tried axon 7 edl tool, and the two most prevalent versions of miflash. the flashes go through, but do not completely flash back to stock. both boards are bl unlocked. one runs hot enough to cook an egg, the other works perfectly in TWRP, but has no touch in booted systems. ive spent two days flashing and resetting both. i say they dont completely flash bc even after wiping and cleaning files that are not system files persist on internal storage. maybe im missing something.

oh yes, many times. ive given up on all the edl files i have access to. i deleted all of them and am trying to find the ZTE provided ones. i have started redownloading the ones i can find. really, i want to go to a clean, unadulterated stock and start fresh. b32 doesnt work on either. i also am reinstalling axon7edltool and killer off the miflashes (i had two versions). full axon flash setup reset. atm, im trying to figure out how id apply mm b20 full properly from an old (necro'd by me today) thread. b15 and b32 fail. im going to re-evaluate every step of my installs and redownload all of my edls.
edit: after redownloading and installing miflash 2017.4.25 i flashed the initial twrp b29 edl. then, using twrp, i installed the stock recovery image. then, and only then, i was able to flash the b29 marshmallow full edl. good news? it all works. still hot though.
Update: making all my pointless updates in one day. lol.
I hard bricked the hot board experimenting with flashing a2017 edl (although when reflashed, it actually ran at normal temp). i managed to restore the serial of my other spare board, but still could not regain the imei. unless i discover a guide to pull imei from some hidden partition or qfuses or wherever it is stored locally, if such a thing even exists, it is doomed to not have service. im tempted to try to find somewhere or someone that can flash the board fully (like a proper factory reflash beyond what edl is. Qfil files for the axon 7 dont seem to exist. but i'd love to see someone flash one like that. maybe ill find a river of knowledge one day.

Bricked my Xiaomi Mi A1, Stuck in EDL 9008.

Hello everybody,
First off, I hate people who don't search on google before making a post, I have been searching for 4 days and I feel that it's appropriate to ask now.
I will make 2 parts to this thread, one will be a very fast explanation of what I did and the second part will be the same but a very thorough with a step by step process of what I messed up...
TL;DR: I was tired, late in the evening I flashed for some reason a Partition table of a Mi Note 3 on my Mi A1... I am now bricked and cannot access anything, fastboot, ADB, recovery nothing! I guess my phone is in EDL mode cause when I plug it in it flashes its led. "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" Is what I see in my device manager.
What do? oh, I forgot! I cannot access anything through any combination of buttons. I am stuck here, where I am!
The full thorough explanation for people who are bothered to read fully. (Includes my excuses for making noob mistakes, might be fun to read idk.)
Young me on a Sunday evening decides to reinstall magisk but this time with twrp cause I did it without twrp (yeah yeah I know). I was left without OTA's and after uninstalling anything that had something to do with Xposed or magisk I trashed it all. and stupid me thought that maybe? maybe? just maybe deleting Dalvik Cache would help me get my OTA's back after injecting my original ROM. This is where the fun begins.
I was not wanting to go through reinstalling magisk and all that to wipe the Dalvik Cache, I thought that that was my mission now, so I decided to search for methods that don't require root or being in the system, so some kind of fastboot or ADB command or something idk. I tried installing twrp and without my understanding that failed miserably and then I read some post where someone said that they flashed a mi note 3 partition table on their phone and something worked. Being the naïve little boii that I am, let's do that hey? Bam! bricked! I read somewhere I can open the phone and remove the battery and not having the tools is a mess, having to ask friends for some and voiding my warranty for something that probably won't work and after reading I understood that I'm in "EDL 9008 recovery" or something like that. I cannot boot into anything, I only have EDL 9008 to work with. I tried using Xiaomi's flasher tool and it would never respond to the initial hello packet (duuhh! I can't use ADB nor fastboot).
I know that this was stupid, I know! I learnt my lesson. If there is nothing we can do can I at least somehow get my internal storage data back? I deleted the backups from google drive for a short amount of time but randomly 5hrs prior to this sad story. All I have safe are now my contacts.
I hope you guys have some ideas! I feel like I'm fked but maybe with EDL 9008, there is a little glimmer of light?
P.S. If you guys somehow get me into fastboot I can flash a correct partition table back. My PC has all drivers so I can do this!
Sincerely, Micheal.
There is a way although i did tried it yet.
First of all sorry for my English.
Download latest MiFlash tool and qualcomm driver, this package contain both but not latest MiFlash so you should download lastest version from official site.
https://www.fshare.vn/file/H3R8M6OMRP2R
Download lastest stock rom.
You will need a good USB type C cable, dont use the one come with phone because you dont want to cut it in half.
Yes, that exactly what i said. Cut it in half, there are 4 small wire (or maybe 5 with type C?), remove it outer plastic and reconnect them.
Join the green and black cable, like you short circuit them, then plug your phone into PC with that cable without release green and black, wait for 5 sec then seperate them, the green and black.
Check device manager on your PC, you should hear device connect sound and qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader show up under Ports.
Open MiFlash and try to flash it.
You may want to check this video, although it in Vietnamese but you should understand the usb cable part.

Hi, interesting situation. What about following this guide: http://en.miui.com/thread-235865-1-1.html ?
Its for some other phone, but try instaliing some drivers and you may get some signal of life.
Very interesting
I have thought about doing this as I had an old type-c lying around that came with the phone (I use a beautiful cable I bought off amazon) and saw this method to flash but never tried it..
I'll give it a go thanks.
btw. Your English is good I understood everything
The second comment from TrueMS:
I already have all drivers installed and in the long post I said that I have a flashing led that indicates that i'm in EDL 9008, the phone isn't dead but it won't turn on with any driver

Yes, thats what I meant. Well, I dont know how to help you, wish you luck. I remember how I flashed wrong ROM for my S3 Mini and it was completly trashed, I'm glad that Xiaomi gives us at least some signs of life and hope.
And btw. I would rather charge the phone somehow - I hope it charges even in EDL mode, because if your phone dies while flashing with MiFlash, things can be even worse.
EDIT: I also found this guide, you can try it out: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/guide-unbrick-via-external-sdcard-qfil-t3748946
Okay so now a major reply!
I have stated in the OP that I am already in EDL, there is no need for cutting the cable or installing any driver, I am in EDL 9008 I don't need to "try to get there" as i'm already there.
These guides failed miserably as I have already tried them, my phone "doesn't receive a hello packet" from my phone, as I can't use adb or fastboot, or recovery.
I'll download linux and give that usb method a go then

Something that is never mentioned is to disable driver enforcement, this time hello packet was successfully recieved and flashed... Hold your happiness, cause now EDL no longer works so I can't see it in any com port and i'm certainly still in edl cause of the flashing led. Only difference I see is that now the led flashes when I hold the power button??? hmmmmmmm
To clarify:
Can't boot
Device was flashed successfully
Com port on pc can no longer see phone even after reboot
adb still don't work (proves again i'm in edl)
I'm in an even stickier situation now, can't access with my pc hmmmm..

So did you flash official stock ROM? Because I dont understand why doesnt it work... btw. when you flashed the ROM, did you lock bootloader?
Cant be battery dead?
If you are on "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" you will be able to flash stock fastboot firmware. Flash it using MiflashTool. Normally Miflashtool will recognized it as COMXX, where XX is the number of the port.
It's the official rom for the march ota.
The phone works, apparently it was encrypting everything... and now as I interrupted it, the encrypting failed and I lost all my data.....
Phone works but could have been better.
Before I reset the phone to factory, as i cannot use it yet, is there any way to get anything personal back? or is it gone gone and just factory reset?
What I see after boot, the phone resets every minute
https://drive.google.com/file/d/13sARZzlf3vJZK6Mx4hil6lsXRUl7-r-K/view?usp=sharing
The button that is hard to see says factory reset

Good job mate, so that SD card method worked with Linux? Be happy that your phone is alive.
EDIT: Maybe consider locking bootloader? Try it if youre on official stock.
EDIT 2: By flashing that ROM I guess you lost all data, but you can try to boot in TWRP without installing it and browse in file manager to see, if there is any data.

No... I was going to do that tomorrow but I decided to disable driver signature enforcement which worked. This should be written everywhere if it's this important..
Is there still a way to get my internal data back? Question as well, in recovery "mounting" the data partition will that let me get everything back "mounting" the drive to the pc? or do i not understand what mounting is.

As I said, you can try it, but when I flashed my Nougat stock ROM, i lost all the data. Or you can boot into TWRP and connect with USB to your computer to see the data in phone.
Good that your phone is working now, as for the data, i once forgot to remove encrypt before flash custom rom, but when enter TWRP it will ask for old password to decrypt. Just enter your old pass then connect to PC, or use TWRP file explorer to copy your data to sdcard

None of the passwords I used worked.. I just factory reset it, thanks alot everybody. And now I will be more careful, don't flash anything weird. And backup!
I understood why I can't get the data back, if android fails at the encryption it jsut deletes everything!
My fone also in 9008 please can you guide me
I did the same what you have and it's on 9008 my flashing is successful but still my fone is not opening help me

Just another victim of the android 12 update, hoping for a revival

So im gonna start off by saying that im just some dumb 18 year old and have never actually posted to ask for help, only reading other peoples situations to try to figure out my own.
but introductions aside im just gonna jump in to everything wrong with my oneplus 8 pro (global)
I was on the OOS 12 beta for a while, ive been way too lazy to change it back since ive been occupied by other stuff.
I was using magisk and decided to do some fun shenanigans with it.
I get into bootloop after flying to close to the sun with modules - a common occurrence.
so I try to switch to a custom rom since I was gonna reset anyway.
I download CR droid's recovery and main rom, went into fastboot and flashed the recovery.
I notced that whenever my phone was plugged into the computer, the options would rapidly switch on fastboot's end
when I tried to boot to recovery after flashing, it would only return to fastboot
confused I thought that maybe the recovery was bad and try another rom, no dice
i submit defeat and go to msm tool to fix the issues
I get that "Sahara communication failed" error so I hold down the volume up + power for 13 seconds before trying again.
it flashed smoothly
after getting sad at all the bloatware that was on oxygen OS after a full reset, I get the motivation to try using a custom rom again, this time using a different rom.
same weird fastboot behavior
I was unable to go into recovery
I then tried downloading stock firmware to flash it manually
fixed nothing
I delete the boot and recovery partitions and flash them again, still no dice
I even make a partion called fart, before remembering that I do not know the partition structure of android so i Ctrl+C out before it makes the partition
I go back to msm tool again in shame
"Unknown Target Device"
I reinstalled drivers
switched computers and cables
changed the source of my drivers
nothing fixed this error
and every time I would try to do anything it would go directly back to fastboot.
I try reflashing partitions in this broken fastboot mode and it would only flash if I unplugged, selected reboot bootloader, and plugged it back in
I would then try to fastboot boot into TWRP or other recoveries i downloaded
they would shut off the phone
I remember a/b partitions exist so I switch over between them and try to flash stock OOS again
after more fiddling and nothing working, I noticed some more weird traits of fastboot
twrp did boot directly after switching my main slot, not specific which one just if the slot was changed.
the "this device has an unlooked bootloader" message did not appear
only on slot a would the oneplus logo show up on boot
again every option I would click would take me right back to fastboot.
I wait a day for the phone to die so I could use EDL that way, at this point the twrp method randomly stopped working so I couldn't go into edl that way.
"Unknown Target Device Param Preload"
and like I know Param Preload is a common error but nowhere could I find information on the unknown target device part.
the phone still vibrates if I hold the power and vol+
it just vibrates in a loop as if it keeps rebooting, probably fastboot just selecting the start key over and over when I hold it down.
vol- and power do nothing, and did nothing for the entirety of this story.
is there any chance of saving my poor instantnoodle professional?
## edit for people googling this
the problem I was having was that I didn't set the "target" button on the MSM tool correctly, so make sure its set to O2 or your appropriate reigon
1. Stop fastboot flashing with A12 or if you are on A12.
2. Read this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ro-8t-9r-with-oxygenos-12-coloros-12.4426167/
3. Rescue your phone using this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...l-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.4084953/
4. Stay on OOS11 (Most custom roms INCLUDING A12 custom roms require OOS11 anyway.)
5. There is not much bloat on a OOS11 rom IMO but you can always use a debloater.

Maybe I should clear on what i have tried. since I have read both articles before I made this post (i scanned through them again once you sent them tho)
Ive tried...
The unbricking Msm qualcomm 9008 tool
ive used it a ton in the past
ive switched copmputers, cables, and the qualcomm driver, as well as reset the phone several times
also yeah im not touching oos12 after this with a 9 foot pole, but is there a way of knowing wether I can save it or if its too late and the motherboard has been fried.

Okay i guess this is another situation here. You are not bricked like the other peoplke as far as i can see because there devices are completly bricked. No connection to pc or vibrating at all.
Since you used MSM tool before it should work IMO. Does your pc regonize the phone? Did you tried to switch usb ports? Did you tried other versions of msm tool(eu, older verions, etc)?
Please make sure to follow all MSM instructions closely.

after a week of fiddling I DID figure out the issue
unsupported Target unknown was refering to the fact that I had the MSM tool set to Target mode, which I assume tries to set the region according to what the current device has. After selecting that to O2 for the global models, the flash worked fine. I ended up coming across some C stock of a google pixel 3a and will try messing with that so I dont have to go a while without calls or texts. Glad to know I learned some bit of responsibility from this excursion.

Major help needed

OP 8 Pro (Global-US) is horribly MUCKED UP!
I am in need of some high-level assistance, hoping someone here is able to help me.
Here’s what I know: My phone got messed up when I was attempting to install Magisk to android 12 C33. (Not really sure why) I tried you using various tools and methods to fix it. Each time I hit one roadblock or another. Biggest issue was I was never able to boot to EDL mode.
At this stage, no matter what key combo I use, the phone only boots to fastboot mode. Selecting any of the other options has no effect, it simply boots back to fastboot. At the time, that this happened, the bootloader was unlocked and developer options with USB debugging WAS active.
I have tried multiple times to install OnePlus_8_Pro_Global_OxygenOS_11.0.4.4.zip via fastboot, but it always fails with several 'Flashing is not allowed for Critical Partitions” and partition not found, etc
At this stage, I don’t know what to do. I am hoping one of you can help me restore my phone back to factory.
PS - would OnePlus reset/restore it for a fee?

Try firing up MSM and click the start button before connecting your phone. You should have at least 1 COM port listed with a N/A status. Now plug your phone in to the computer and let it boot to fastboot. Now hold down VUP,VDO & Power all at the same time until MSM starts the install. You should be good to go, if you get a good MSM install.
I tried what you suggested with no success. I am using the instantnoodlep_15_O.34_210201 MSM. Any thoughts?
