Hi, good day and thank you for reading.
I'm stressed out. I need any help I can get, what's happening is that I bought two phones in attempt to refurbish it and it came with errors. Whenever I try to update it I get " Status 7 ; installation aborted ) along with many other stuff. Additionally, the device I bought was supposed to be unlocked but guess what. It isn't . ( also not sure if rooted but i assume its not )Please help in anyway possible.
I'm not a phone tech but I know my way around. It's two devices, both from sprint.
Device 1: SPRINT sph l720 )- this is unlocked. Only need to probably flash my device and put lollipop on it. It's currently 4.4.2 kit kat but when I download and go through with the update, status 7 installation aborted. This brings me to my next issue. My baseband number is different from the lollipop rom that I'm finding online. Should this be an issu? baseband number- L720VPUAMDC.(will flashing make the phone locked to sprint again?)
Device 2: SPRINT sph l720T.(Baseband : l720TVPUBOA3)- This is locked and won't update. Same error as mentioned above. (Sprint spark)
It would be nice if someone could carry me through the steps I'd need to fix this (flashing to lollipop and unlock or any other method to be honest. I'd just like to overcome this issue as soon as possible to sell these devices)
And thank you thank you thank you in advance for the assistance. I really needed it.

Recently i hard bricked my newly released and bought Xiaomi Redmi 12c (earth) and it was a hard brick i mistakenly flashed preloader ( with sp flash-tool) while trying to unbrick it when it was still in a soft brick, so i didn't know what to do i went all over the internet i read forums threads all of that went on telegram some services were asking for 15USDT for xiaomi auth edl verification, so after i tried everythinh nothing worked i almost gave up until i gave mtkclient-main ( https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient ) (check out this youtube guide on how to set it up
) one last chance after i found this thread online on havoctek website ( https://www.hovatek.com/blog/my-experience-unbricking-a-xiaomi-redmi-note-11-pro-5g-china/ ) and i tried all the commands sadly didn't work. But once i ran this command
py -3 mtk w vbmeta_a,vbmeta_system_a,vbmeta_vendor_a,vbmeta_b,vbmeta_system_b,vbmeta_vendor_b,md1img_a,spmfw_a,audio_dsp_a,pi_img_a,dpm_a,scp_a,sspm_a,mcupm_a,cam_vpu1_a,cam_vpu2_a,cam_vpu3_a,gz_a,lk_a,boot_a,vendor_boot_a,dtbo_a,tee_a,efuse,logo_a,logo_b,countrycode,md1img_b,spmfw_b,audio_dsp_b,pi_img_b,dpm_b,scp_b,sspm_b,mcupm_b,cam_vpu1_b,cam_vpu2_b,cam_vpu3_b,gz_b,lk_b,boot_b,vendor_boot_b,dtbo_b,tee_b,super,gsort,oem_misc1,cust,rescue,userdata vbmeta.img,vbmeta_system.img,vbmeta_vendor.img,vbmeta.img,vbmeta_system.img,vbmeta_vendor.img,md1img.img,spmfw.img,audio_dsp.img,pi_img.img,dpm.img,scp.img,sspm.img,mcupm.img,cam_vpu1.img,cam_vpu2.img,cam_vpu3.img,gz.img,lk.img,boot.img,vendor_boot.img,dtbo.img,tee.img,efuse.img,logo.bin,logo.bin,countrycode.img,md1img.img,spmfw.img,audio_dsp.img,pi_img.img,dpm.img,scp.img,sspm.img,mcupm.img,cam_vpu1.img,cam_vpu2.img,cam_vpu3.img,gz.img,lk.img,boot.img,vendor_boot.img,dtbo.img,tee.img,super.img,gsort.img,oem_misc1.img,cust.img,rescue.img,userdata.img --preloader=preloader_pissarro.bin
after i ran this command everything changed the preloaoder that wa bricked came back to normal and i unlocked the device bootloader without using the official app to unlcok again caise it said i cannot unlock twice in a month the tool i used was from technobuzz.net it worked perfectly i could not recommend it enough link of website- https://www.technobuzz.net/unlock-bootloader/ or better still watch their video on youtube on how they did it
the bootloader unlock file and drivers are attached here so you should stress your self in looking for it
and i flashed my STOCK ROM on my device with mi flash since you needed an unlocked bootloader to flash.
so thank you for taking your time in reading if it helped just leave a like and good luck with the unbricking
AND MAKE SURE YOU CHEK YOUR IMEI NUMBER ON https://www.mi.com/global/verify/#/en/tab/imei AND CONFIRM YOUR ORIGINAL ROM WHETHER INTERNATIONAL(GLOBAL) OR EUROPE OR CHINA INDIA RUSSIA ETC CAUSE IF YOU FLASH WRONG (region) ROM WITH PRELOADER YOUR DEIVCE MIGHT BRICK.
