Question Lenovo Phab PB1 770m no operating system help

Hi all i have new Lenovo PB1 770m I attempted to root it the TWRP was installed but it was not rooted
then I tried to update the firmware to the latest 151111 and no go, in the end i managed to delete the operating system so now I can boot to recovery mode only, When I try to restart it comes up with No OS Installed, I have tried to install xposed v79 sdk21 arm64zip no go, Ok now I know that I am an IDIOT for
not making a backup of original system and not cheking the firmware was the same as the root guide,
On the top of recovery screen is :- 2.8.7.7 SevenMaxs and TeamWin Recovery Project, I guess this could
be an expensive lesson, I have been looking for an original ROM with no luck so any help would be very
much appreciated, Thanks pluto1956, Mike
ps used info and files from here to try and root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/andr...oting-t3290347
UPDATE I managed to get a ROM from Russian site PB1-770M_S000156_150930_ROW_fastboot.7z 1.8gig
instructions say to be installed from computer via usb my problem is I can only access the internal storage or external SD card not the Usb-otg so it seems I can only update from the sd or internal memory

Well i did it. Is really simple but it seems nobody has this problem before. You need
- Download Stock Firmware from russian lenovo site
- The Tool i used is QPST_2.7.422 QFIL it cames with the Drivers (i used Win8.1)
- Put phone in Download mode (press vol up and down same time and connect phone to PC)
- Open QFIL program and select flat build
- In select programmer you select prog_emmc_firehose_8936.mbm
- In load xml i selected rawprogram_unsparse and path0
- After that you click download and wait like 4 min and when say finish succesfully you start phone manually
I hope this helps.

Thanks brother, yesterday i downloaded one russian rom in zip format and there was a .bat file included in it. i only double clicked and it flashed through adb and fastboot and it was successfull. i got the operating system 5.0.2 but WLAN is not working, tried flashing several time but no luck. i learned that it is still under warranty ..so sent it to warranty. in a week it will be back with be for testing again hopefully.
well i will try your method as soon as i get my beast again. Thank you so much for helping out in timely manner, really appreciate it brother.

it is very easy my friend just look into the only topic/thread about Phab plus in xda. it will guide you well.
if you get any error in recovery like footer is wrong/signature verification failed. connect your phone and first check if your device in being tracked by adb. use adb devices.
if your device appear in the list of devices ..use fastboot oem unlock then flash sevenmax twrp again after entering into temporary twrp as per phab plus thread.

Could you please elucidate more? I downloaded the ROM and the flash program. However, I've no clue how to get going. I don't even see the xml files anywhere (as mentioned by you).
Just don't want to screw it up bad so being little more cautious.

i cant use the .bat cause my phone is already bricked...it wont be recognize by the app...the only way is thru QFIL but the problem is that i always get the error above

Hi, same here. I tried using QFIL and getting Sahara Fail. Then tried clicking on the bat file but its not working since the phone is not recognized. Please help.
EDIT : I got the QFIL working just now and my phone is working. Flashed the stock rom and I think it will be just fine.

My phone was wiped by me . I have TWRP and my phone is read as ADB interface (when in recovery mode). I tried adb devices and it returned 1f82f24b recovery. I also can access my phone memory from PC when in TWRP recovery which enables me to transfer files.
My problem is it is only read as ADB interface not as Qualcom COM port device. When I try Download_with_partition.cmd I get the error that it can not distinguish devices and to try. Any solution by those managed to install it successfully?

For everyone landing in this page due to wiping his OS of Lenovo Phab Plus by mistake (like I did), please refer to this thread:

Hi!
I have a Lenovo Phab PB1-770M, this phone won't turn on, only Lenovo logo, or fastboot or flashmode.
With Flashtool i can't flash. In Fastboot i flash a recovery or operating system, i reboot the phone and again only the Lenovo screen, operating system not starting.

Yes is true.I do not know what Lenovo is doing,I don't think he not knows the problem
device perhaps has a problem with bootloader or & recovery also (or maybe with partitions sizes) ..let us hope,Lenovo to fix it,the device has good features & in good price .he policy followed by Lenovo is unacceptable (do not allow unlocking of the bootloader ! )

bravo, good job, man. thanks so much for this post!
i've done this flash thing already. and be careful that your wifi&bluetooth mac address gonna changed.
and also, it's better to backup Qcn file first.

oh, there is question, i wanna make a full backup of the stock rom entirely, there is a post about it, https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/how-to-backup-qualcomm-phone-root-t3570178,
im not pretty sure about the process, have you done it or know how to do it?
not download to the tab, but read from the tab, can qfil do this job?

not download to the tab, but read from the tab, can qfil do this job?[/QUOTE]
Full backup via qfil No! I do not know what he wants to do, but stay away, it is very dangerous all this for hard brick !
For full backup needed or custom recovery (nandroid backup) or rooted device & use some tool from playstore for backup etc..
You can flash twrp : https://forum.xda-developers.com/ge...vo-p8-tb-8703f-tb-8703x-t3689442#post74281359
and after you can get a full nandroid backup ..
except all this, backup for stock rom? and how to restore the backup? also, even if you have the twrp probably will not be able to restore a factory image backup...

I just want to know how is this file dumped or where did the Russians got this file.
Before I downloaded this file into my tablet, I flashed trwp recovery, and made a full backup of the Chinese version ROM . BUT the ORIGINAL lenovo recovery WAS GONE , RIGHT?
SO ..... without the original recovery the backup cannot be called a full backup right

I told you...custom recovery can not flash (or reset) factory image backup (this version twrp decrypt device because Lenovo P8 has a locked bootloader etc..)
backup of stock rom is useless in this device, you can flash stock rom if you want, via Qfil

daitalos said:
If after an ota update the device sticks and it does not start , try it first ! wipe cache - wipe data/factory reset from stock recovery before using Qfil...
In most cases the device starts - boot normally

Hi to all,
I managed to brick my lenovo TB-8703F after updating Magisk through the TWRP recovery mode.
At first it got into a boot loop and I tried to recover it by flashing the stock rom with the instructions found on this thread.
Unfortunately No luck.....
The tablet was recognized in Qloader Mode and flashed with QFIL but after the flash completed successfully it hanged at lenovo logo boot screen.
Tried wipe data - factory reset without luck.
Now after many attempts with QFIL and different settings it is only recognized in Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E mode and cannot be flashed with QFIL, no access to recovery mode, fast boot or anything else....
Do you thing I have a chance of recovering it?
Thanks

Do you thing I have a chance of recovering it?
Thanks

Qualcomm drivers are installed correctly; you can try with QPST version from link of OP (Qfil included)
(Disable driver signature?)

Drivers must be OK. (they worked before the hard brick.)
I tried with a deep flash cable but I had no luck.....
Then I opened the case and removed the battery left it for two minutes and tried again. No luck....
I thing I now have a nice paper weight for my office.....
The strange think is that before the hard brick I successfully managed to complete the flashing process for ten or more times but the tablet refused to boot.

Does anybody know the test points that have to be shorted in order to force it to connect to EDL 9008 mode?

I've seen it...tools are needed,and there is always a risk of error...I think there is a video with details..
I do not know how much credibility it can be this method....

Badly translated from Russian
A test point is detected (wi-fi version of the tablet, it may work on lte).
So, install QPST, drivers, download firmware, prepare QFIL for firmware (the instruction is in the subject), when connecting, the brick is defined as HS-USB Diagnostics 900E, disconnect usb cable, disassemble the tablet, turn off the acb, tweeze the pin specified in the photo on the iron frame, hold, do not release the jumper and connect usb, then connect the acb, as soon as the computer determines HS-USB Qdloader 9008
release the jumper and click download in QFIL.

HELP: Attempting to obtain root on BLU G9 Pro

Hello all, so long story short I had bought a BLU G9 Pro which came with Android 9 Pie. The only device-specific guide I could find online about obtaining root was: https://www.getdroidtips.com/root-blu-g9-pro/
The information on that guide is trivial and can be applicable to almost any device. The root method worked, however, there was an OTA update to Android 10 (and then later a security update) which I took. I then attempted to re-root the device utilizing the same method. However, now it seems that everytime I flash a Magisk modded boot.img my device gets stuck in a bootloop and will not go past the bootloader. I believe that this device may be uncharted territory but it is a great phone and I would love to have both Magisk root and the latest Android 10 firmware. I have found that Magisk supports both Android 10 and A-only devices so I do not see what is causing the problem. Additionally, I attempted to flash an AOSP GSI of Android 10 which refused to boot before I even installed Magisk. I am new to modern Android devices with Project Treble so please forgive me if there is something obvious I am missing. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

@eLatErbI
Try flashing GSI like said in https://source.android.com/setup/build/gsi#flashing-gsis
May be vbmeta flashing is required for your device.
You can get vbmeta.img from your stock firmware.

It seems that Verified Boot could definitely be getting in the way. Could this possibly explain why Magisk is working on the Android 9.0 version of the stock ROM but not Android 10? However, I thought Magisk disabled verified boot in the kernel (boot.img) also I do not have a vbmeta.img in any stock firmware for this phone. Any other means of disabling verified boot? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I have the same problem with my G9 PRO, I tried to boot all kinds of GSI roms with and without magisk and it doesn't work (bootloop). I cannot find the vbmeta partition anywhere so I am hesitant to try to flash it without a backup. There is a mention of it in the fstab of the boot partition, however it is not in the stock firmware or in my own backups. Magisk did also work for me before the Android 10 update. Does anyone have an idea of how AVB works without a vbmeta partition or a verity file?

You can extract the boot.img from your phone if you updated to 10. I updated and used SP Flash to read the boot.img and WwR_MTK to get the partition length and starting value for the boot.img and patched it using Magisk and reflashed it over fastboot. I know this thread is a bit old but if anyone is interested, reply and I will post the link that explains. I have Android 10 running on my Blu G9 pro rooted.

Hi. Please post the link. It will be very helpful for me. I have the BLU_G0231WW android 10.

Here is the link: https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-21970.html
This is what I did to root the phone:
Download WwR_MTK 2.30 and SP Flash (I used version 5.2112)
**Open WwR_MTK 2.30 and create a basic Scatter File by choosing the Platform Type (processor) which for Blu G9 Pro is MT6771. Click create and save as - I saved all files in one folder.
**Open SP Flash Tool and under the download tab choose the scatter file we just created it will have only Preloader under it.
**Go to the Readback tab press Add -- Double click on what was added and just keep it saved as ROM_0 (once again I saved it in the same folder as the scatter file) -- the Start Address is in the scatter file as "physical_start_addr:" it should be 0x0 and the length is "partition_size:" and the value should be 0x80000. Keep the Region as EMMC_USER unless you want the preloader but to get the boot.img we don't need that. Turn off your phone and press the Read Back button with the Arrow and plug your phone into the computer. It will read the file and give you a big Green Check to let you know it completed succesfully.
**Once you have the ROM_0 open it up in WwR_MTK 2.30 Under Step 3 (Choose the EMMC_USER partition in the prepared backup) you will get an error that says "The file size is smaller than the start position of the LK (uboot)" press OK -- You will get another error that says "To determine the ype of process and memory.... blah blah blah" Press OK
**Click the Scatter File tab -- Under the Name field find boot. We now get the starting value of the boot.img and the partition length. We need these values to put back into SP Flash.
**Go to SP Flash and Readback tab again. Press add. Double Click the new add and save it as boot.img -- Region is EMMC_USER and the start address is going to be the HEX value next to Boot and length the length address next to boot. For the BLU_G0231WW_V10.0.04.07_GENERIC Build these addresses are:
Start: 0x20C00000 and Length: 0x2000000
Push ok when you put the start address and length for the boot.img and once again push Readback and connect your phone while off. The File size I got was a boot.img of 32,768 KB in size which is much bigger than the boot.img of the Android 9 (which was like 9 MB in size).
**Install Magisk on the phone and patch the boot.img and flash it with fastboot and boom, you have a rooted BLU G9 Pro with the latest Update. Keep your stock boot.img as I rooted my phone with the 10.0.04.04 update and could not update to 10.0.04.07 until I reflashed the stock boot.img in case there is another update.
That is all there is to it and you should be able to use this tutorial to root if BLU pushes anymore updates.

Thank tuffasagong.
I now have my blu g9 pro magisk rooted on Android 10. I added viper4Android, Adaway and more tweaks.
Have you noticed the desktop mode when screen casting to second display? I wonder if there is a way to reduce lag when using bluetooth mous.

Which version were you on? The latest at the time? A little more info did you flash a Magisk patched boot image?

Blu pushed out a new update 10.0.04.08 a couple weeks ago. Reflash the stock Boot image to update. Boot image has the same length and start addresses. I just reflashed the magisk Boot image I made with 10.0.04.07 and works fine.

I've followed this and have gotten quite far but I can't seem to find any working fastboot drivers for the G9 pro, I have tried several different ones and with every one I get absolutely no hits on "fastboot devices" and upon any attempts to flash, it leaves me at "waiting for device" I just want to know if you had a specific driver or if it's different issue

Use the Platform Tools for A9 or A10.
Downloads - Read and accept the terms.: platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
Device need OEM Unlock & USB Debugging enable.
Maybe your PC need USB Drivers: drivers USB OEM
Maybe need MTK USB driver: MTK Driver

First off, thank you for your really speedy assistance with this, I appreciate it.
A couple things, to note, the device has already had OEM unlocking and usb debugging enabled, it works with adb, but is not recognized at all by fastboot itself, I'm definitely going to try those drivers and that version of the platform tools. Is there any log, device list, or any other info I can dump that would be useful in troubleshooting this?
Thanks again for your assistance, lopestom.

If yes so look drivers.

Hello there,
My technical skills when comes to android phones is next to zero, but I have been running linux (Fedora, Endeavour, currently Debian 11), I am not affraid of the terminal.
I have bought a Blu g9 pro, like 3 months ago, it came out of the box with android 9, then It updated to android 10.
It is very close to stock android, and I am ok with it, exept for a few creepy apps that I would like to remove,
I would like your input on what is the safest aproach, can I just 'debloat' the current system? or might as well replace it with something else?
Thank you.

I attempted to flash the patched boot image from Magisk but my G9 Pro started boot looping. I've tried to flash every firmware that I can find for this model but I keep getting an error message from the Flash tool.
Any guidance?

Saved me - TY. This worked for me for Mintt Ultramintt Y3 - basically an Aussie rebadged Blu G9 Pro. I used this method for it with Pie 9 (before allowing update to 10). Cheers

Question Unbrick lenovo p11

Hello team,
Recently I bought the Lenovo p11 from a well known China online store. It came with a pretty old non-OTA rom so I decided to flash a new one. However, the flashing failed and my tablet is stuck now in the fastboot mode. It can be recognised by fastboot but not from adb. So, I cannot reflash it. All options return to the fastboot. Bootloader is locked and I see that Device state is locked. Is there any idea how to unbrick it?
Thanks in advance

Hi there.
You can provide the drivers and some instructions for unbrick
Thanks.
Sorry for my English.

The tablet that they have left me only starts in fastboot mode and I can only communicate with it using fastboot commands. Can I do something to get it back?

you need the qualcom driver its in the flash software,and you must set the tablet in edl mode.
EDLmode Shutt off tablet when off only push volume up and connect tablet with pc .
then if you have the qualcomm driver installed you see the connection in the device manager of windows.
After that the rescu software did for me the job, and the p11 boots up again.
i have allready unlocked the bootloader,and flash the twrp recovery again after that i root the p11 with magisk all done.

Download with the Smart Assistant Tool from Lenovo latest firmware version TB_J606F_S320029_210923_ROW.
If you have the chinese version you can download it here:
lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.
lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai
mirrors.lolinet.com
Start Qfil.
The Qfil file is where the new firmware by Rescue and Smart Assistant is stored.
For me it was in the folder c:/ProgramData/RSA/Download/RomFiles/ToolFiles/Qfil
1: The tablet must not be connected to the computer and must be off.
2: Now start Qfil, at the top of the screen is now "No Port Available" start now the tablet by holding down the Volume + button and at the same time connecting the USB
cable to the computer or laptop, You will feel a slight vibration in the tablet.
3: Now you see in the screen that a port is present, so you are now in contact with the Qfil programmer.
4: In the Qfil screen you will see "Select Build Type" choose "Flat Build"
5: At "Select Programmer" press "Browse" choose there prog_firehose_ddr.elf
6: Now press "Load XML" and choose rawprogram_unsparse0 and patch0
7: Now press "Download" the installation will now start so wait until it is finished
8: After the installation is finished, disconnect the USB connection and restart the tablet:
9: The tablet may start up with the FFBM mode screen, then turn the tablet off again by holding the power button for longer seconds.
10: Start the tablet by pressing the volume - button and the power button.

Is it possible to solve this issue?

I think you have the chinese version which has different hardware.

PB-6505M (Lenovo Tab V7) Bootloader Unlock/Flashing

Info about procedure
We will be flashing a bootloader taken from development firmware which contains all the normal fastboot commands and is signed with the production key. This allows us to properly unlock the bootloader the standard way.
This has only been tested on PB-6505M and PB-6505NC !
There is a very good chance of this this working on PB-6505MC and PB-6505Y but it has not been confirmed, be warned if the debug PB-6505M bootloader is not compatible it will likely brick the device. Please contact me before attempting it.
How to flash the debug bootloader
(Windows) QFIL
Download and install the Qualcomm drivers from here​
Download the debug bootloader flash package from below​
Extract the firmware to a folder that you can easily access them from like your desktop​
Download and install QPST from here​
Open the QFIL application (Find it in your start menu)​
In the "Select Build Type" field select Flat Build​
In the "Select Programmer" field navigate to the folder you extracted the firmware and support files to and select the prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn file​
Select the "Load XML" button and navigate to the folder you extracted the firmware and support files to and select the rawprogram_unsparse.xml and then the patch0.xml when prompted.​
Unplug and turn off your tablet​
Hold vol+ and then plug in your tablet​
If the text at the top of the QFIL application mentions qdloader move on to next step. If it says "No Port Available" click the "Select Port..." option and pick your device. If your device isn't showing up there you most likely didn't install the drivers properly.​
Click the Download Button to begin flashing your device​
Once complete make sure your phone is off and then hold vol+ and power until it vibrates and then let go of power but keep holding vol+ until fastboot screen appears​
Now you can "fastboot flashing unlock" the standard way​
(Windows) EMMCDL
Download and install the Qualcomm drivers from here​
Download and unpack emmcdl tool from here​
Download the debug bootloader flash package from below​
Extract the firmware to a folder​
Run the flash.bat file in the emmcdl and fill in what it asks for​
(Linux, Mac, Advanced Windows)
Use Bkerler's Amazing EDL Toolkit Here

Thanks @AndyYan for testing PB-6505NC
I will only be responding to discussion directly related to the flashing and unlock procedure or questions related to the engineering firmware. Please have twrp, rooting, mods discussion in other threads.

Astronomical man. Another hit out of space. More research!! Im just kidding.

thanks for your information, I unlocked my Lenovo PB-6505MC successfully using your method. when checking device unlock status, it returned some info like:
DM variety counter:0.
Device tampered: false,
Device cretical unlocked: false
((what these mean?))
I want to install magisk, and then patch boot file, but as it is Android 9 device, do I need some steps for disabling DM variety? if so what is the code and when to write these codes?

OK, after few trials, I could root my device successfully.

Здравствуйте!
Нельзя ли более подробную инструкцию по этой программе
