Accidentally bricked my phone while trying to unlock the bootloader on my phone. I was doing this in an attempt to root my phone again after removing the root in an attempt to update Oxygen OS. After TWRP was unable to flash the update I gave up and tried to root the phone again using kingo root but kept failing. I checked whether or not the bootloader was locked and sure enough it was but after attempting to unlock it again, the phone was bricked and could only go into fastboot mode. Flashing the stock OS didnt work since the bootloader was locked. I tried using a unbricking method posted to oneplus forums that invloves downloading qualcomm diagnostic drivers and using a unreadable download tool but couldn't find the driver the method mentioned Qualcomm 9008. After some more searching other methods were similar but used the driver Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostic 9006. Once that driver was installed i launched the MSMdownload tool which was taking hours with no progress bar whatsoever so i decided to go to sleep. I woke up to an unreadable notification from the download tool and my phone's battery was dead. The phone wouldn't go into fastboot mode but was still being detected in device manager. All the phone responds to is the power button and volume down button being pressed which just causes the phone to display a low battery notification and then stops charging a minute later. I then tried using an unbricking method that involves installing the qdloader 9008 driver and running a program called QFIL but this method failed to unbrick the phone. Is there any way to factory reset my oneplus 2 and put the stock OS back on to it? please keep in mind that the bootloader is locked. i cant post links to the methods i used as the site wont let me
After installing twrp on my chinese axon 7 latest B16 I rebooted accidentally and now my phone gets stuck on the the ZTE logo.
I cant enter recovery as when I press volume up + power, it reboots a couple of times with the zte logo and nothing else.
Also when entering EDL mode the only thing my PC is showing in device manager is "Handset Diagnostic Interface(DFU) (COM6)". Before it was showing as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" but no more, even after multiple reboots and installing the qualcomm drivers again.
Before when running "adb devices" in the CLI I would see my device but now nothing. and running adb reboot edl shows error: no devices/emulators found.
Also tried MiFlash but when I hit refresh I dont even see COM in the list, its just blank.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
as I tried the below guide but get stuck as my device is never picked up by ADB or MiFlash

Yeah, DFU brick. You basically need to follow the 4th category brick repair guide. Good luck

wow damn..I found this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/a2017-4th-category-brick-repair-manual-t3585898
But I see it involves me opening the device which I am trying to avoid as a last resort.
I just sent the seller from Ali-express to see if they will replace it.
Never actually told them that I was tinkering with it.
Fingers crossed on the reply, will update the thread once I receive a reply.

It seems I got really luck as putting my phone in Factory test mode made device manager finally show "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" which I was then led MiFlash in detecting it.
I was then able to flash Stock B13 and from there unlock the bootloader, flash twrp and root.

Usually you can't enter Factory Test Mode when on a DFU brick. The known procedure to do that is to discharge the phone, then put it into FTM somehow and then using ADB to get to EDL. It's really weird that you've been able to pull that off that way
Could you tell us how you got into FTM? Just by vol down and power? It would be a nice addition to the brick guide, before attempting to take the phone apart
Yeah, it was just by power + volume down.
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

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

Hi internet,
I obviously need help. I accidently bricked my 6T again and it seems to be permenant. I tried to used the MSMdownloadtool but the tool can't detect the device. And the device is in a Qualcomm CrashDump Mode. It shows Attempted to kill init! exit code=0x0000000b do_exit. I got to go but is there a way to fix this.
You must post in Q/A not here

You can restore you device using fastboot rom. Search for oos 6t fastboot rom.. There are guides for installation.
P.S. It will give a whole bunch of error in the cmd during installation but don't interrupt the process as your device will be restored in the end
Use Mnm tool to fix your phone. It can fix hard brick devices and guidance is there how to use .
PS: this is not right place post next time post on Q/A section.
Hold all the buttons down till it shuts off, almost a full minute. Then get it to boot to fastboot, power off. Then start up msm, then while phone is unplugged and off, hold both vol buttons for a 4 count, then plug it in. Msm will day connected, hit start. Let it finish and reboot. that's all
Qualcomm crashdump is not the same as download mode, and will not work with MSM. You still need to put your device manually into download mode.

Hold down every button till it shuts off, then force reboot to bootloader, then select power off to make sure it's off. Then do as I instructed above to fix it. Sometimes u can just run a fastboot rom to fix it, or boot twrp and flash a rom. I do this multiple times a day sometimes.

Thanks everyone who replied. The whole thing started when I tried to update my TWRP the wrong way and I got nothing better to do. I was on 3.2.3-1 and the newest on the website (TWRP) was 3.2.3-2, but I flashed the image instead, into vendor. This got me into the Qualcomm CrashDump Mode and it kept on rebooting to it as well. There was no way that I was be able to use the MSMDownload tool to recover my 6T as the tool couldn't detect my device as it was connected as Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E not Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008.
I pressed all the buttons and got into FASTBOOT mode! Then I booted TWRP, luckily all my stuff isn't corrupted and I did a Nandroid backup beforehand as well. So, I just restored my Nandroid backup and voila I got my 6T back. Thanks again everyone

If your using windows search for device manager to see what your device is being detected as. Try and reboot if your device isn't Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008. Once it shows that try and update the driver, but you'll need to be a admin. Have you installed Oneplus USB Drivers?

Help I can not get in to fastboot mode. Im stuck in Crashdump mode. Even when i power off the phone holding powerbutton down for a while it will powerup again and the unlocked bootloader warning window with "press power key to pause boot" will not react to any presses.
Also booting and holding down power+down will result in the same and go to crashdump mode.

I was on A11.1.1.1 , when I decided to root my device. Tried to install Twrp but failed, then unlocked boot loader and flashed magisk using Adb from my windows 7 desktop. Phone restarted, went into bootloop, then restarted naturally - however I couldn’t turn on Wi-Fi. Downloaded SuperSU, which showed device was rooted. In an attempt to revert back to stock os, I flashed another boot image, and phone went into continuous boot loop. So I searched the web and downloaded Qualcomm hs-usb QDloader 9008, and MsmDownload tool v 4.0 in an attemp to unbrick my device and installed them. However, my desktop doesn’t recognise my phone as Qhusb_bulk or as Qualcomm qhusb qdloader9008 in devicemanager. So I m unable to use the MSM tool to un brick my phone. Tried reinstalling the drivers on desktop , but the phone doesnt show up on device manager still. Only shows up as “pci simple communications controller” under other devices.
When i turn on my phone, it shows the OP logo going round and round for 5mins, then the screen goes blank. If I keep the power off button pressed for quite sometime, phone restarts into boot loop again. Can’t get into boot loader, nor does adb on my desktop recognise the device.
i m at my wits end as to how I m gonna unbrick my phone, as this is my primary phone. Kindly guide me step by step as to how to unbrick my OP6t. Any help is appreciated.

When you get it to reboot did you try holding volume down as it starts? Should get you into recovery then bootloader.
Also get magisk to root rather than SuperSU. You can install twrp from magisk in oos with the correct installer but first you have to root correctly with modded boot.img. Can make your own or get from the one post in here. I'd suggest getting the newest oos also.

Probably need to flash a stock boot of 11.1.1.1 to unbrick. You can try booting to the newest twrp from fastboot I'm not sure if it works anymore.

Couldn’t fastboot into twrp, since device got corrupted while trying to flash multiple things. Thankfully while tinkering, my desktop recognised my device as qhusb qloader 9008, and all I had to do was boot my device into edl mode (which was also a pain tbh!). After trying numerous key combinations and timing it perfectly, device booted into edl and I could use the msm download tool to unbrick my device. Now device has rebooted into iOS 10.3.5 (same version as msm tool version) and I have somehow breathed a huge sigh of relief that my device could be resuscitated. Will be updating to 11.1.1.1 now (I see the latest is 11.1.2.2) and setting up my device now.
Thank you a lot for looking into my issue and suggesting solutions. In my younger years, I was a technology enthusiast and often rooted/flashed, but have pursued medicine since then. Now am out of touch completely to the tech scene and it was a grave blunder on my part to have used my primary driver to try and root/flash again.
Have a great day, my friend and please know that it means a lot to me to have received help from the community.

I was on A11.1.1.1 , when I decided to root my device. Tried to install Twrp but failed, then unlocked boot loader and flashed magisk using Adb from my windows 7 desktop. Phone restarted, went into bootloop, then restarted naturally - however I couldn’t turn on Wi-Fi. Downloaded SuperSU, which showed device was rooted. In an attempt to revert back to stock os, I flashed another boot image, and phone went into continuous boot loop. So I searched the web and downloaded Qualcomm hs-usb QDloader 9008, and MsmDownload tool v 4.0 in an attemp to unbrick my device and installed them. However, my desktop doesn’t recognise my phone as Qhusb_bulk or as Qualcomm qhusb qdloader9008 in devicemanager. So I m unable to use the MSM tool to un brick my phone. Tried reinstalling the drivers on desktop , but the phone doesnt show up on device manager still. Only shows up as “pci simple communications controller” under other devices.
When i turn on my phone, it shows the OP logo going round and round for 5mins, then the screen goes blank. If I keep the power off button pressed for quite sometime, phone restarts into boot loop again. Can’t get into boot loader, nor does adb on my desktop recognise the device.
i m at my wits end as to how I m gonna unbrick my phone, as this is my primary phone. Kindly guide me step by step as to how to unbrick my OP6t. Any help is appreciated.

This happen to me several times and the first time it happened I thought my phone would not be unbricked after numerous attempts with the msm tool!
My issue was that my phone was a renewed amazon phone and amazon listed it as a unlocked international but it actually was a t-mobile variant and when i downloaded the correct msm tool with firmware it worked!
You need to get the phone into edl mode. For edl, when phone off press both volume buttons and plug in the usb while connected to your pc and the qualcom driver should pop up in device manager. After that finding the right msm firmware will be your next issue but with enough searching you should find it!
Let me know your progress with the driver and I can try and post some links to different msm firmware for the oneplus 6t!
