Searching for a persist partition .tar - Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers

Hello,
I am a "victim" of dead sensors. As I replaced the screen, my phone is not under guarantee. So I need to fix my persist partition but I cannot find a uncorrupted file.
Can someone upload it?
Thanks a lot

Same issue

[Q] Proximity + cwm backup

Greetings!
i ve flashed sense port rom just for fun (you have to put it in cwm backup folder and restore it). After that my proximity sensor died and i forgot to make a nandroid backup of my working stock nexus rom.
after that, I ve flashed stock img file via fastvoot and proximity still doesnt work.
Could anyone send me some CWM backup, i cant find it anywhere. Thats the only thing i havent tried to revive proximity sensor.
Or someone has better solution.
Thank you very much,
Aleksandar
If flashing a stock image hasn't fixed it, nothing will.

Seems like deleting the sensor files/folders works...
/data/system/sensors
/data/misc/sensors
/persist/sensors/sns.reg

I really don't know how a factory image or a cwm restore didn't solve it??
@Prezlamen Take a look at the above thread... I hope it will fix your issue as well...

As for the first 2, a factory reset should cure. No custom rom should be touching /persist. This is the problem with flashing incomplete ports. Different phones, different rules

IMEI=0 restore with QPST, provided a QCN is available?

First things first, I'm sorry for opening another thread on this but I feel the other ones weren't headed exactly in the correct direction.
A little background:
I was trying to downgrade my XT1541 to Lollipop since 6.0 was really bad and I got frustrated and used
Code:
fastboot erase all
The result was I erased my IMEI and I haven't been able to connect to a network carrier since. The problem can be solved by re-writing my IMEI but that's the difficult part.
What I gathered so far is I can use QPST, backup QCN, go into HEX and change IMEI there, then restore the QCN back to my device. The problem is I can't locate the IMEI in my QCN since my IMEI is now simply 0.
So in all, could someone make a backup of THEIR QCN and send it to me? I would flash it to my XT1541, locate the IMEI (since now I would know what I'm looking for), then change it back to my own.
Does that sound like something that could work? Can anyone help?
UPDATE1: Noone sent me their QCN however I did try to restore the one I backup up (which still has an IMEI=0). QPST Software Download reports
Received an invalid command from the phone.

I tried using Qualcomm NV Tools (from EFS Professional), which reads all the information correctly, however when attempting to write the following appears
Cannot Write: NV_UE_IMEI_I
Error: NV_ERR_BAD_SECURITY_STATE

So getting another QCN won't help as it seems that I can't write the IMEI (qcn) back to the device...
There are only two possibilities of fixing this... a 50/50 chance that a full factory flash will restore it (don't know how, but it does sometimes). If that doesn't work, then you need to send it to Moto for repair.

Well, unfortunately that leaves option 2... or turn it into a media play and buy a new phone.
Funny how `fastboot erase all` causes such a pain for some and not others... but once your IMEI is gone, there isn't much you can do. Moto kinda screwed the pooch on that one.
Hello, did u try Xposed IMEI changer? Maybe that will be a native fix for this issue.
Try this >http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/info-moto-g-imei0-t2925970/post61725547#post61725547

Hey, couldn't get any results with the xposed module
Just one bump
One last effort, not a bump. If anyone can direct me to commercial services for repairing the IMEI i'd be very greatful. Official Motorola Service wont repair it for me btw.
Thanks
try this guys

Bootloop with different ROMs

My P3100 suddenly stop booting in CM13 and it just started to bootloop.
The things I tried:
- I restore a previous backup
- I did a factory reset
- I put a stock ROM
The behavior is the same: bootloop.
Do you have any advice regarding this problem?

On some tab2 it's enough to update the EMMC firmware but needs someone who can do. I know someone from Austria who can update the firmware and replace the emmc if needed.
Ok, thank you for your answers.
I took the tablet to a GSM service.
If they can make it, its ok, if not, I can live without it.
Once again, thank you.

Question Persist partition needed for OnePlus 9 T-Mobile

I was trying to unlock the sim-lock on my OnePlus 9 T-Mobile and somewhere read that it can be done by deleting modemst1, modemst2, and persist partitions. So, I deleted them, but it didn't work. Instead, the WI-FI also stopped working.
After trying different MSM Download Tools for weeks, somehow modemst1 and modemst2 partitions were restored, but still cannot restore the persist partition. Without persist partition sensors are not working. For example, it does not auto-rotate, brightness auto-adjustment does not work, etc.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you!

So in essence you broke your device. You probably have lost fp scanner,wifi,nfc,rotation. I really don't know what to tell you other than msm your device back to stock. And you didn't back up persist . This partition is device specific. If you do get it fixed properly I'd leave it the hell alone.
You can't just delete critical partitions
So, there's no way to fix this? I can assume that the phone is wasted?

Try and contact OnePlus and get a remote session. One of their techs will get you on correct MSM and get phone fixed.

The persist partiton can only be fix by oneplus in factory or spending money for someone that has the hardware required to fix it.

Modemnv backup, please.

Could someone please send me:
modemnv
modemnv_system
modemnv_factory
partitions?
I bricked my sim function by overwriting these partitions with board firmware, and I'd like to fix my device.
I think these partitions contain imei, so send if you want to. Thanks.
