Peter, I was in a very similar situation with my new Axon 10 Pro. Here's what I did to escape Bootloop purgatory!
I tried to unlock my new Axon 10 Pro with the EDL Tool v3.2.5 (posted here on XDA). My phone is running Android 10.
Thankfully I started by creating a Full Backup of the phone. (This is VERY Important)
I ran through the Bootloader Unlock process. The tool claimed the unlock was successful. When the phone rebooted, it entered a constant bootloop state. I managed to escape bootloop by unplugging the USB cable and pressing both volume buttons. This brought the phone into Fastboot mode.
If you leave the USB cable plugged in and press both volume buttons the phone goes into EDL Mode. (Black screen and the PC sees it as a Qualcomm Com Port)
I copied the contents of the EDL tool's "tools" folder into a new ADB folder on the root of my C drive.
I then copied the abl.elf, abl_b.elf, boot.img, abd boot_b.img files from the initial EDL Tool backup into the ADB folder.
Then I opened a cmd prompt and flashed the individual files via fastboot:
fastboot flash abl_a abl.elf
fastboot flash abl_b abl.elf
fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
Once done, I rebooted the phone and it booted back into Android 10. Unfortunately the bootloader is still locked.
I also tried manually flashing the abl.elf file found in the EDL Tool's Unlock folder. It didn't work. I'm assuming the EDL Tool is only compatible with Android 9.x.

Jeah, this metod will not work to anyone, who have locked bootloader.
But, there is bug, when bootloader is unlocked (atlest in fastboot its shows that its unlockd), but realy its locked.
Why there are this bug? i dont know, but its happen when someone try with dload method to fix phone, or when with twrp recovery are flashing official nuget zip. In developer options there are turned of option "alow to unlock bootloader", and thats reason why cant flash with fastboot thease img files.
So, at the end, this method will work only in certain circumstances, and not for everyone who bricked phone, due this bug .

Quick question, I bricked my phone when I did a factory reset and deleted internal storage and accidentally deleted important files while doing so. I flashed a stock update from the warehouse and completely deleted the system instead. I then flashed Lineage ROM which reinstalled the system but now causes me to get stuck in bootup. When I installed Lineage ROM, I got the following error.

Download the FULL OTA files on the last approved update you were and flash via HuRupdater method.
If you are on the Chinese variant, you can flash stock recovery via fastboot and then download firmware from there on.

Bootloop, only fastboot and EDL mode no system boot please help Axon 10 Pro

hi Guys
I'm in the forum for a very long time as an assistant helper now it has got me hard I have an Axon 10 Pro with curly boot loader and trying to flash a TWRP I have somehow the device or SotA and SlotB have shrunk. The Axon Bootet permanently in 0.5 second cycle and also a FULL Restot or FULL Flash with EDL Tool has not changed anything. Likewise, a new flash about fastboot with the command (fastboot flash boot_a boot.img) the same for boot_b then try with fastboot command (fastboot boot twrp.img) Recovery to start without success fastboot erase boot_a and boot_b has also flashing new but it does not start. Always bootloop:crying::crying::crying::crying:
the Axon 10 pro is back because he had no backup of all we had from my Axon 10 pro made a backup with the edl tool (Backup all) and have then copied his efs backup purely and then this with then on the Axon 10 flashed the Axon 10 pro is now back
Where did you get the twrp from?

I had a bootloop issue as well and even though I reflashed using the EDL tool, it doesn't erase and the errors remained, but when I entered EDL mode and reflashed using the Xiaomi Flash Tool, storage was completely erased and the device was flashed cleanly and booted correctly.
I've encountered a similar issue with my Axon (2020U version). I can boot into EDL but nothing else (no fastboot, recovery, etc.). I previously had TWRP up and running successfully, not sure what happened.
Is there a full EDL zip or similar that I can flash to return everything to stock? I tried restoring with the EDL tool but with no success

The reason the EDL tool may not work is that is doesn't have the capability to erase. The boot loop that occurs is usually due a corrupt bootfile. Use the MiFlash fastboot recovery tool. Make sure to select the clean all button at the bottom. Place your phone in EDL mode. Hit refresh to make sure your phone is detected. Select the EDL file and then hit flash.

Apologies for my ignorance - what exactly am I flashing? I see the "clean all" radio button, but I'm not sure what EDL package to flash after selecting that option - is there a 2020U package floating around that I'm not seeing?

The EDL package, use the same EDL package that you used with the EDL tool. Just select the "clean all" radio button. Select the path to the EDL , hit refresh once phone, in EDL mode, is detected, hit flash.

Okay, I'm trying to use MiFlash to restore the backup I took through the original EDL tool. The MiFLash tool is only timing out with a "cannot receive hello packet" - was this something you encountered as well?

I did attempt to flash the wrong EDL file (They are region and device specific) and received that error. I have the Chinese version and once I downloaded the correct EDL file, I had no issues I have even maintained an unlocked boot loader, flashed Magisk and taken OTAs.

Ah, okay. I have the US version - A2020U. Unless I'm mistaken, it looks like there isn't a full EDL zip file available for my version yet, so I might be stuck
There were EDL files up, but apparently they were taken down for some reason.
in the russians there are the 1.6 of the g model as edl (which one can use in a brick) but I do not know if this is synonymous with the u model as you would have to ask @Unjustified Dev or something

Thanks for sharing these. @Unjustified Dev do you happen to know if the 1.6 2020G EDL would be able to be flashed to a 2020U model to recover from a brick? Or if not, is there a place to obtain the proper files, either here on the forums or via PM?

[HOWTO]Unlock bootloader/root for most G7's except T-Mo via EDL Mode (EASIER METHOD)

Hi everyone!!
IMPORTANT:NEVER SELECT ERASE OR FORMAT PARTITIONS IN LGUP. IT WILL MESS WITH YOUR IMEI
Im making a new guide to unlock your bootloader/root your device. Its easier to do a little bit risker but if you do it slowly you wont mess up your phone and in the event you do you can always recover it. Remember to FOLLOW ALL THE STEPS or you may end up messing up your phone, The best thing is, you dont need to downgrade to even unlock the bootloader!!
DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE BRICKS! YOU ARE FOLLOWING THIS GUIDE AND ITS YOUR CHOICE TO DO IT OR NOT TO DO IT AND YOURE THE ONE DOING IT. I JUST WANT TO HELP OTHERS OUT.
If you cant for some reason access fastboot even flashing the v35 file, use this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g7-thinq/how-to/verizon-lg-g710vm20f-t4057031 it says verizon but i think most of the models of the g7 cant acess fastboot so you can try this.
Requirments:
-A PC
-USB Cable to connect your phone of course
- V35 ABL
--The LG FIrehose file
- QPST/QFIL
-9008 drivers FOLLOW THIS GUIDE!! To install drivers properly IF WINDOWS DOESNT INSTALL THEM AUTOMATICALLY!!
-ADB PLATFORM or someway to access fastboot via cmd
-PATIENCE!!
Steps.
Download the V35 abl,LG Fire house file, download and install qppst and install the 9008 drivers (WUNDOWS 10 should automatically do it for you) If not, download it and install them.
Boot into edl mode via connecting your phone to the pc then turning it off. Hold Vo- and power and keep pushing the vol+ button multiple times when it turns off.
Go into device manager and check if its detected. to check open up device manager and check Ports and it should say Some port 9009 Qualcomm or something like that (IF theres a question mark, exclamation mark or it says qhusb bulk even after you install the drivers, make sure you disable driver signature enforcment on windows and install the drivers again. Theres multiple ways to do it just google on how to disable driver signature enforcment windows 10. Same with windows 7/8,)
Run as administrator qfil and select flat build,.
--Programmer Type: Load the firehose file
-- On the top go to configuration and where it says Device type, make sure you change it to ufs.
-- Click ok to save and exit
At this point qfil should be detecting your port . If not there should be a select port button next to it on top.
Go to Tools then Partition Manager
A window should pop up with all the partitions. If you get a shara failed error, make sure your drivers are installed correctly and try rebooting into edl again once more. To do that just hold vol - and power until the lg logo comes up and then keep holding vol - and power again and once it turns off again just do the edl combination again.
Search for abl_a and right click on it. First do Read Data, it should take only a couple of seconds Then Load Image and load the v35 image. It should say GPT Finished or something like that at the log with no errors.
Reboot holding volume - and power for like 20-30 seconds until the lg logo comes up Then hold the down button to boot into fastboot or it will automatically boot into fastboot depending on what version of android you are on.
Open the folder where your adb tools are, then hold shift +Right Click in the folder and open powershell. Type and enter CMD
Enter: Fastboot oem unlock it should output with OKAY, If it gives you unknown command, try a USB 2.0 port and then turn off your phone and while its booting up enter the command before you boot into fastboot. Once thats done dont close the window yet!!
Once thats done you can now restore your other abl so you can boot back into android. To do that run %appdata% in the search bar or in the run window by holding the windows button and pressing the R button. Then you should be in C:\Users\{YOUR USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming
Open up the Qualcomm folder --> QFIL --> COMPORT#
There should be a ReadData Blah blah.bin in there. Drag and drop that in the folder where your adb tools are
then go back to the window i told you not to close (The powershell/cmd window) then do fastboot flash abl_a (The file name with ReadData) without the ( ).
Now you can turn off the phone vial holding volume - and power and then reboot into android!! You should get a bootloader unlocked or a cannot be checked for courrption message! Congrats your bootloader is unlocked!!
To root: Just back up your boot image via and then find it in %Appdata% put it in your phone then use magisk manager to patch the boot file and then take that boot file and then flash it to boot_a via edl.
I tried my best to write this guide and sorry for my grammatical mistakes. Ill be helping people unlock/root their bootloaders for free during this covid time as well. If you want to donate you can always tell me but its not necessary.
Ill try making a video as soon as i can.

Yes and no. Yes it will unlock the bootloader but the problem with verizon there is no fastboot unless you erase the laf imgs.
Which is why in my guide I use the crossflashed ULM11g it has fastboot and the oem unlock enable button which makes it easier to issue the "fastboot oem unlock" command.
Give it a try and if your not good at doing this with qfil will brick your device. If you run into issues try my guide.

From ecperince just keep doing that. Nut before entering fastboot put the command in and press enter then reboot directly into fastboot. Kerp doing it unt you see the orsnge unlocked bootloader on your g7 screen
Hey op or whomever can help point me in the right direction: when looking at used/refurbished g7's which models should I ask sellers about or steer away from like the LMG710R (I know the LMG710TM is a no go, what about the Sprint unlocked for GSM and what's there code if I want to avoid them?)?
Thanks.

Once the bootloader is unlocked with this method DRM is lost forever. Even relocking the bootloader will not bring Widewine certification to L1. I am back to stock with locked bootloader. Widewine is at L3.

In this guide, we will show you how to install Android 11 GSI on Project Treble devices using two methods: TWRP and Fastboot Commands.
www.droidwin.com
, and flashing vbmeta.img by twrp was not clear for me as I must "select partition to flash image " as twrp says , so i flashed vbmeta.img one time as boot and another time as bootloader and then flash system.img as system and then install permissiver_v5.zip and then reboot , my phone now not powered on at all , even any logo not appear , i put it in charger and hold power button a lot but no vibration at all and also can't open twrp or fastboot as my hold on power button all it did is flash the above light led when it is in the charger , no any thing else , I think the problem is related to my mistake when flash vbmeta as i didn't know any option i must choose or what is the problem and how can i fix it please ?
You messed up your boot system.....
1. You need a PC
2. Redmi Drivers
3. USB CABLE
4. MiFlash tool and the stock ROM
Do you have MiFlash installed on your PC?
yes , it is installed , i connected the phone as you say but it is not read by the flash tool till now

How To Guide Repair ROG Phone 5S through edl firmware, no need to unlock Bootloader to modify COUNTRY CN to WW

Success is disgusted by some people, and will not share any files for free in the future.
johnny886 said:
These materials can only be used for ROG Phone 5S_ZS676KS, and ROG Phone 5_ZS673KS cannot be used. I will release the materials for ROG 5 separately.
If your ROG Phone 5S ZS676KS only has edl mode (port 9008), then this tool can help you repair your phone through edl mode.
Or if you want to modify COUNTRY, flash the firmware of WW, you don't need to apply to unlock the Bootloader,
you don't need ROOT, just follow me.
1.Connect the phone to the computer through the USB port on the left, enter the fastboot mode,
and then open "Reboot-to-edl.bat" to enter the edl mode. Or enter fastboot oem enter-dload in cmd.
2.You must flash in the ENG firmware that I modified. If you find the firmware online,
you may lose your fingerprint and IMEI after flashing.
Method 1: The phone enters edl mode, and when you see port 9008 in the device manager,
open the ENG folder--open "0-update_image_EDL.bat"
Method 2: The phone enters edl mode, and after you see port 9008 in the device manager, use the XiaoMiFlash tool to flash in.
Method 3: The phone enters edl mode, and after you see port 9008 in the device manager,flash in through the QPST tool.
3.After flashing in the firmware and successfully booting up, be sure to back up your phone partition files. If your phone's fingerprint is lost or IMEI is lost,
it can be restored to normal. If you don't have a backup, it will be very troublesome.
Double-click to open "Backup.bat", it will automatically back up your phone partition files, you need to save these files, follow-up will definitely help you.
Include these 10 files:“persist.img factory.img modemst1 modemst2 asuskey4 fsg fsgCA fsc fsgCA2 fsgCA3”
Normally, you don’t need to restore these files. If your fingerprint or imei is lost and you need to restore these files to your phone,
please flash the ENG firmware, then put these 10 files into the ROG 5S folder, and double-click to open " Restore.bat" can be restored to your phone.
4.If your machine is an global version, after backing up and saving 10 files, directly enter the fastboot mode, open the WW folder-open "flash_raw_and_wipe_data.cmd" to flash the WW firmware, and successfully repair your ROG 5S.
If your machine is the CN version, and you want to flash into the WW Firmware, but don’t want to unlock the BootLoader, you can use WinHex to open the persist.img you just backed up,
find COUNTRY, change CN to WW and save it, and you can directly restore it to your phone through the dd command Inside, there is no need to unlock or install magisk.
Double click to open"Open-Cmd.bat",Then enter the commands one by one
adb push persist.img /sdcard/
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/persist.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist
Then enter the fastboot mode, open the WW folder-open "flash_raw_and_wipe_data.cmd" to flash the WW firmware.

I have also studied Hardwaresub Services for a long time, ROG1/ROG2/ROG3 only need to modify COUNTRY, CN to WW, and then flash into the global version,
there will be no such prompt. In addition to modifying COUNTRY, ROG 5 also needs to modify asuskey4.
In this partition, clear the imei, then there is no prompt. But I can’t do anything with ROG 5S.
This machine verifies modemst1 and modemst2. I tried it for a long time, but I couldn’t get rid of the prompt except for the whitelist.
If your ROG3/ROG5/ROG5S is the CN version, but you have flashed the WW firmware, you cannot unlock the Bootloader, or you are prompted to unlock successfully, but the Bootloader is still not unlocked after restarting, you can write the correct SSN and ISN of the phone Go to asuskey4, then restore to the phone partition, and then use the official unlocking tool to unlock it.

All of us, unfortunate owners of the tencent relocked ROG5, would be grateful if you could elaborate the following bits-
- Writing down SSN & ISN
- Going to asuskey4
- Restoring phone partition
Much appreciate your contribution here pal!
Can you share the WinHex version you're using?
I'm unable to get the same view you are seeing to find "Country".
@johnny886
Thanks!

Wrong fastboot. Reboot to the bootloader, not fastbootd
I am having some issues getting it to work.
I currently have it bricked to the point of only showing up as a Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 port .
I keep getting a sahara error after the program tries to run the firehose program.
Can you please help me with this problem.
Thank you.
So I managed to download the program via the 0_update_image_edl.bat file with my phone in EDL mode. However, my phone restarted and it is stuck on the republic of gamers logo.
I wonder why it isn't working. Is there something I am missing or does it take a long while to actually load everything during the first reboot after installation?
Edit:
It was my specific phone acting up and nothing to do with your firmware. I am not sure why I had to keep switching between the bottom and side port to get it to work but I eventually got my phone working using the files you provided. Thank you so much for these files, if not for you, my phone would still be bricked.
It seems like I am always finding something new, even when I have access to my phone now.
My storage is only 64 gb out of the 256 gb it normally has. Any idea how to fix this issue?
Edit, found the fix.
Step 1. I had to ensure that I made a back up of the 10 files stated in the instructions. This is important as not having these files will probably brick a phone.
Step 2. I deleted the extra partitions by setting the "erase all before download" and "reset after download" under "configuration" in the qfil app. Then I did the installation process using qfil.
It did not install correctly, but it was not the point of the process, the point was to delete all hidden partitions.
This deletes the 10 files from the phone as well (I think) and this is why the 10 files are important.
Step 3. I put my phone into edl mode via the reboot to edl .bat file you provided.
Step 4. I used the 0-update_image_edl.bat file to do the first part of the firmware installation process.
It rebooted and showed the page of the phones information. I thought this meant it kept all it's information, but this is a lie.
Step 5. At this point I placed all 10 files in the same folder as the restore.bat file
Step 6. I pressed the restore.bat file and it installed the 10 files.
Step 7. I then proceeded to do the second part of the installation by pressing the "flash_raw_and_wipe_data" file under "ww"
This installed the firmware and rebooted my phone. Now I have all my storage back.
//////////////////////////////
Note:
If the process above doesn't work for someone else. The thing that might have fix my phone could have been changing the setting in the "partition setting" under "configuration" in the "qfil app" that actually deleted the other partitions.
I think I set "customize physical partition" and "active partition number" to 1.
I did this right after saving my 10 files and before using the qfil app to attempt to install the first part of the firmware installation to my phone. This process would replace step 2. on this post.

I had something similar happen.
Does the computer register it as a device that can be seen or connected? If it DOES NOT CONNECT TO THE PC AT ALL, let it sit on the android logo while it is connected to the computer. In about 15 to 20 minutes it should reboot into a recovery mode like state and the PC will pick it up, something that didn't work when you attempted to use the androids power and volume buttons. It should say a few things and have about 2 options that say
1. delete files
2. reattempt
DO NOT SELECT ANY OF THOSE OPTIONS!!!
Instead, keep the phone plugged in and do not turn off the phone. Place it back into edl mode using adb or the "Reboot-to-edl.bat" file and attempt to reinstall the first portion of the firmware using the "0-update_image_EDL.bat" file.
(Note: You might need to mess with the device manager settings on your PC for the phone. The phone needs to have the ADB Driver to reboot to edl. After your phone gets into EDL mode, you may need to then set your phone to run with the qualcomm driver on your PC's device manager setting to allow you update the image edl. )
then after that fully installs, go to the next step which is the backing up the 10 files. This is the "Backup.bat" file.
This is important. If you fail to do this, you could end up bricking your phone as installing new firmware has a possibility of deleting your phones identity "IEMI" and without this info, your phone will not work. Make sure you keep this file even after you fully installed your software.
After downloading those 10 files. Go to the next step which is. pressing the "flash_raw_and_wipe_data.cmd" file in the WW folder.
(NOTE:
If this doesn't work, it probably means the IEMI information was deleted. Do not pay attention to what is shown on the android screen itself, the battery life and all the info on the screen is incorrect!! It might say something like you have 6000 mah of battery when in actuality you have 5 mah of battery. You will probably have to redo the installation and press the " Restore.bat" file after fully installing using the "0-update_image_EDL.bat" file. If you already have the 10 files, you do not have to resave the 10 files, as you already have them all.
In order to use the restore bat file. All 10 files have to be in the same folder as the "restore.bat" file, prior to pressing the "restore.bat" file.)

One of the languages for the ROG 5s WW version is Deutsch (Deutschland) or what we normally call german in the US.
There seems to be other forms of Deutsch as well. When initiating the phone, select Duetsch (Deutschland) to run it in the German language or go to settings - accessibility - Language - Duetsch (Duetschland)
