Firehose file (ZF3 Zoom): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xXgxtxDLMiiLloodM--dGZct_Evg6vJv/view
I am not sure how to do this. Try unzipping the file.

@ZenFone_3
Great work finding these files! I tried extracting and building the files for another phone and not only did it take forever, certain files were available only through the oem like the firehose file. Hopefully I won't need it, lol, but it's much appreciated!

@itsme.Ronjie
From my experience with qfil, it is a picky bastard. Have you tried different versions of the app? Safe mode or disabled driver signature enforcement mode? Is your phone detected in Windows as Qualcomm 9008? Can you perform an emmc dump? What caused your issue in the first place and what are the current symptoms?
You might want to try making your own thread in the "questions" section.

Has anyone been able to use these files and procedures to revive his/her device? I see some files are missing and Qfil keeps telling me that it failed. Tried with 3 different pcs. 2 of which fails to complete the process and 1 can't put Device into EDL. THANKS IN ADVANCE
I own a bricked Ze552kl

Qfil works best when it's used on a freshly installed Windows pc . Or a PC which does not have many drivers instead or at least no previous Qualcomm drivers. Also driver signature enforcement must be turned off. This may be of some help to you.: https://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/help/question-qualcomm-download-mode-k-t3068040

windows 7. or 8

@itsme.Ronjie
Tools --> QCN Backup
If the backup completes successfully, the flash should go through as well.
I think Windows 7 is less finicky than windows 10, but I've read of people getting it to work on 10 so whatever is easier for you.
This thread went over some troubleshooting tips, it's worth a read.

Hi,
i used a modified boot.img to root the phone.
I did it on my own for the phone i've bought at cect-shop.com (see above) so i'm not sure that it will work on other i9300s too.
I recommend to save your own boot.img first using the readback function from the flashtool with startadress:0x0000000000f88000 and lenght 0x00600000.
You are using this file on your own risk, good luck !

Take a look into ColonelZaps blog : http://colonelzap.blogspot.de/2012/07/star-note-ii-n9770-mt6577-dual-core.html
It's the same way, just use the i9300 boot.img instead of the one from the blog.
How to read your boot.img per readback should be clear if you play around a bit with the flashtool.

n9770root.zip includes all what you need, drivers (maybe the most difficult part), flashtool and a boot.img. This boot.img must be swapped with my file. You can do this by doubleclicking the boot.img in the flashttool after loading the scatterfile. Try it out, you can't harm anything as long as the phone is not connected.
When you opend the flastool you will find a button labeled with 'readback'. Click it, than press 'add' and enter the adresse and length. if you finished that press readback and the tool will read your boot.img to your harddisc.

You have to load the scatterfile, change the boot.img,then first press 'download' before you connect your phone which have to be off.
The download should start automaticly, if not or if an error-window appears the driver is not installed correctly.
I wasn't able to install the driver on 2 Windows 7 PCs. I reactivated my old Windows XP PC and was succesfull. It seems to be a bit difficult to install the driver.
The adresse and length should be the same on every MTK6577 phone, you had to connect your phone as the last step. Doesn't matter if you want to download or readback.
I know no other way to root a MTK6577 phone than flashing a rootet boot.img, it was easier on MTK6575 phones.
if i understand, i open flashtool, i make all like you say (boot img, scartet fil...), i click on download, i click on yes and i connect my phone (with or without batterie) ?
and i don't understand for save my boot ?
thx, and sorry, im noob in android

Yes, connecting the phone should be the last step. Take the battery out for a second to reset the phone and put it back before connecting it.
As you say you are an android noob i would urgently recommend to make a backup first.
Start the flash-tool -> load the scatter-file -> click on 'Read back' -> click on 'Add' -> doubleclick the new entry -> give a name for your backup -> enter start-adress and length -> click ok -> click on readback button -> connect your phone.
If the driver is correctly installed the tool starts automaticly. The result should be a file with a bit more than 6MB.

Phone Dead, Need Assistance

Hello everyone,
Yesterday I tries to root my H810 ATT LG G4 and messed up somewhere along the process. Now my phone does not turn on, show anything or do anything. When it is connected to the computer it shows up as Qualcomm HS-USB Qdloader 9008, so there might be some hope. I've looked all over for system images for the H810 variant and tried to use the PR version from teh mega thread, but no luck as it might be corrupt.
If anyone can provide any guidance, it is much appreciated, I am at a wall.

Oppo R7sf with no fastboot mode, no recovery mode. Please Help :(

Please help me.
So I think I accidentally removed some bloatware when my phone still great.
When I restart the phone hope for a more speedy and light everyday use, it goes bootloop instead.
Here is My Oppo R7sf back then:
1. Already rooted via Oppo Tools, I downgraded the firmware to 151210 version.
2. Booloader not unlocked yet.
3. Cant boot into fastboot mode via buttons, and if I keep holding it = always bootloop, but if I stop pressing it = the logo stucks.
4. Cant boot to Recovery mode nor Hard Reset, and if I keep holding it = same bootloop logo, even I can tell its blinking every 2 seconds. and if I stop pressing it, the logo stucks.
So I was trying how to do fastboot mode via adb and command prompt, but when I type adb devices, it always says "device unauthorized", 12 hours and I have no idea how to get rid of these as far as I know we have to enable usb debugging first, but my phone cannot boot... so... is there any solutions?
Any feedbacks will be much appreciated. Thankyou for your kindness.
My guess is your phone is entering Qualcomms Emergency Download Mode. Try connecting your phone to an PC USB port and look for driver install attempts.

No it's not that simple.
The program utility uses headers to compare which phone is plugged it. It compares those headers with the headers of the phone plugged in.
There is no way to force the program utility to flash a different phone than the ones containing the headers it was shipped with.

Ok. For what I understand the process is quite similar to those I've see for MTK. A correct list of the memory and the right flasher.
I've analyzed the content of the directory and seems that the "key" is inside the flasher and a correct settings.xml and rawprogram0.xml.
The various MSMDownloadTool I've found until now can be grouped in : ver.1, ver.2.0 and ver.3.0 (the last one). Everyone of this version have a "range" work using various types of flasher (number.mbn). I belive that the 3.0 should be able to program qualcomm Smartphone of last generation.
However the last MiuiFlasher should be able program everything.
So the main problem is to find the Mbn flasher with Sahara support and right settings files.
I can't find the right flasher.
Maybe I can get a wrong way ... ... correct me for everything I've missed out :angel:

Yes that's correct. However there is a thread here somewhere in the R7Plus forum which is specifically for the R7PlusM and in there somewhere is a download link to the factory flasher you are looking for.
I know it because months ago I came across it and downloaded its, saw that it contains only Chinese based Oppo files and deleted it later on.
So I suggest you search that thread for what you need.

I have an R7S which has been bricked; details originally posted here but no reply yet.
Additionally to the quoted post above, if I attempt to go into recovery mode and plug the phone into my PC at the same time, the logo stays on but nothing else. I'm not sure if this is sitting in fastboot mode, however I still can't communicate via adb.
Could you please help me resurrect my phone.

Hi I have a cat s50 qualcomm msm8926 snapdragon 400, the phone was turned off suddenly and shows Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008, I have read several posts on the forum about unbrick, but none seem to work, I think the mistake is the wrong rom.
I'm using qfil.
Where I can get the stock rom for this device?
I have also a phone running ok, I can make a backup of that rom?
Any suggestions are welcome.

but i understand that qfil will help me to unbrick phone, but there are no posts with the files for the snapdragon 400, i have also tried with the stock firmware, but the firmware doesnt have the files that qfill needs, do i have to convert something before using qfil?

Do a Google search for:
"Qhsusb dloader 9008 unbrick"
You'll find many different guides for fixing this.

I did that but, it seems that i need a few files, including a .mbn file, and i dont know how to convert the zipped file or its contents intro a format readable for qfil, can you help me with that, because im lost at that part of how to convert, or where to download the unbrick files for the MSM8926

You need to use your model number to search for the files you need. If there is more than one stock firmware for your device then you'll also need to use the build number of the stock firmware that you had before you tried modifying the device.
If you don't know the build number of what you had then you can go by the android version you had: i.e. kit kat, lollipop, marshmallow, etc.
Dude i have tried but theres absolutely nothing

There are just 2 roms found, and both look the same at the inside, there is no rawprogram.xml or etc to use with qfil, and unbricking files for the MSM8926 doesnt seem to even exist, and if i use the only rawprogram.xml that worked for me, it turns out that that the other 2 qfil needed files doesnt work

All I can say is either keep searching or find someone with your same model number and stock firmware and see if they have anything to help you.

Ok, and is there something else i can do with the zipped firmware, maybe pushing it through adb?

If the zipped file contains the various partition .img's then yes you can extract them and possibly push them via adb or flash them via fastboot if you have fastboot. Resaca the possibility first to be sure you don't cause a worse issue.

Yup, there are a few .img files, including boot.img and splash.img. I have read that the EDL mode doesnt let me push the firmware, because that mode is only readable by qfil, but theres a supposed way to orded adb to work with EDL, so it wold detect the phone, and let me push the firmware, do you know something about that?

Unfortunately, no, I'm not familiar with that as I've never gotten myself in a mess with any of my devices, I'm too careful and dig absolutely every piece of information about a device and what I'm modifying before I ever take the first step. I also research every possible thing that could go wrong and how to correct it before I do anything.
It's not as simple as JUST looking for what is available or what can be done on a device, it's also about looking for things like stock firmware differences. Things can change from stock version to stock version, i.e. what can be done coming from "this" firmware can be different when coming from "that" firmware even on the same device. Also things like locked or unlocked bootloader can effect what can be modified and how to do it.

Oh, ok dude, thx
I have same issue. Is there any method to fix ?
I try too search full firmware and nothing, anyone can help with firmware? Anything that I found is just update rom that not have any loader or xml to can flash fully or fix the bootloader.

Dirty Santa on H990 Singe

Hi all,
Has anyone tried the unmodified dirty Santa on the h990.
Im lookink in emdroidle user thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/bounty-thread-lg-v20-root-h990ds-t3493062/page17
hows working on the 990ds.
And he said that the unmodified original dirty Santa should work.
And the question if it will went brick this will resotre to stock?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/restore-v20-to-100-stock-bricked-devices-t3524903
???
No one had tried yet as far as i know .
For me i didnt get an answer for restore back if i bricked my device with this method . so its kinda riscky for me as i dont have another device to use if i bricked mine .
Seems like there's a compile files in the link directry to the h990 if bricked.
There is a kdz available for the h990 single sim so just try it. If it doesnt work then let me know and ill see if i can help. But you can restore to stock using the kdz

Actually this phone is from work...
So im a bit affriad that it will bricked.
your suggesting to follow the original dirty Santa thread?
What about kernel and boatloader & twrp?
what he said if you bricked it you can flash the KDZ back and unbrick it .
bootloader and twrp is something else tho first need to see if dirty santa work with it and then try to make twrp works too
im backing up my phone now will see if i can had it work

Stuck on This one?
3) Plug your device into the computer and verify ADB is working. Then;
On Windows, double-click "RUNMEFIRST.bat, DO NOT CLOSE THE LOG WINDOW THAT OPENS, then double-click "Step1.bat"
Thanks...

now im on twrp recovery
this mean it works ??

Oh really? now THATS interesting. The twrp image is not compatible with your phones hardware then. But at least everything works now.

No. Your device has different hardware so its not able to boot properly(the blue screens we were getting). Most likely the same modifications that the H990DS will need you guys will need. Sorry.
Guys thanks for the update....
