Doesnt work, the device is completely dead.. so neither bootloader, neither download mode, neither fastboot will work..
I have been researching about EDL mode (emergency download mode) and its the only thing i managed to do, by shorting the testing points of the device.
But i dont know what tool should i use while on EDL mode, odin doesnt read my device on edl mode

I also don't know about it, YET

Hard bricked android Pls help.

Hi i just hard bricked my samsung galaxy core i8262. trying to flash custom kernel make it hard bricked. now i can't turn it on, can't boot to recovery and into the downloading mode. when i try to turn it on or do the combo buttons (keys) to recovery or download mode it only vibrates. BUT when i try connecting my hard bricked samsung to computer it is recognized by computer AND When I install odin and see if the odin detects it well YES it detects my phone. and now I just want to know if i can still flashed my stock firmware to my bricked phone with the odin even if my phone is not in downloading mode? or does usb jig can work it on to downloading mode? ( i dont have usb jig so i dont know yet if it will work on my phone) i didn't yet try flashing my stock firmware using the odin cause im afraid that it will get super hard bricked. Help.

Ok so I had a similar problem with my samsung phone as well where i couldnt go into download mode. So i pretty used the download mode combo(it wasnt in download mode). I just flashed stock firmwere and apparently it worked and you said odin was recognizing it so the best bet is to flash stock firmware via odin even if its not going to download mode
Hope i helped you

Sprint Samsung S8+ qualcomm mode

Hi my name is Miguel and im new to xda and i have a serious problem so i bought my phone and i was using it a mp3 and stuff since i live over seas i tried to region unlock it and in the process bam phone restarted and nothing but a black screen i plug in my phone to my charger nothing happens i plug it in to my pc something happens but not on the phone but on the pc it started downloading drivers i can tell you what the bubble said because i came to europe for vacation and im staying here for a while but a friend of mine said your phone lost his boot-up and it wont do anything unless you buy a medusabox and get all the files im buying the medusabox or whatever but where can i get the files from he told me you need 4 files with ones are they any ideas?
What were you doing to region unlock it?
If you hold down the bixby, power, and volume down buttons, can you get into download mode?
I too am in a similar situation. Not trying to highjack the thread at all however I believe it's what they call EDL (Emergency Download Mode). Mine is in Qdloader 9008 but cannot use QFIL to flash it so stuck with this brick for now. The files, I have some XMLs and supposedly the programer but they haven't worked for me at all.
Good luck, please advise if you ever fix it cause I have faith and hope its just a matter of time i can unbrick mine.

Im trying to use medusabox which is what people use to recognize qualcomm mode i just need the file to install the bootloader to get it into download mode any ideas if i can get them from another s8+
The file that ur looking for isn't apart of the stock firmware? BL,AP,CP,CSC, and PIT. I think the one ur looking for is BL for bootloader. You shouldn't need a box to recognize 9008, this is something ur phone should do automatically when u plug it in while hard bricked thought that all of the boxes were made to be able to flash ur device while in EDL mode?

This is very old but no all bricks dont leave in edl the devices also have groind points. All of us that tested the edl repair use qfil or the recovery script which i use on mine. You need a bit more than just the bootloader for repair. A whole barrage of sperate partitions as well as the programmer xml

Samsung Galaxy S8+ Hard Bricked. Only Upload Mode!! How to Enter Download Mode???

Ok so I went to flash twrp recovery onto my phone and something went wrong while using oden... My usb debugging is turned on and OEM Unlocked. Now my phone screen stays completely black. Its caught in a bootloop and No buttons work to bring it back into download mode, Only Upload mode works.. But Odin will not flash anything to my phone in Upload mode. It changes my samsung usb drivers to msm upload or modem drivers. I have been at this for weeks trying to get my s8+ to attach to my computer again using ADB, ODIN, SD CARD, AND EVEN THAT JIG Thing to force it into download mode but TO NO AVAIL.. I Have to some how get back into download mode but no button combinations will work.. It seems to bootloop on me before it reaches those commands. The bootloader is obviously gone to a certain degree since upload mode still works.. Is there any way to use Odin in upload mode? Or is there any other way I can reflash stock rom to fix this issue? I have no recovery, no safe mode, no download mode?? My phone is basically a paper weight right now.. When I know All my stuff is still on there. This S8+ Phone has put up a good fight with me on my pc But Im not one to loose. I love a good challange.. Any suggestions. I thought ADB Was my best bet but with no connect I cant do any thing. I cant' get Adb to find my device. Oh even tryed older versions of odin with low level quallcom drivers and that didn't work either. Odin will read a com port to my device but i'm in the wrong mode (Upload Mode) and Odin cant establish a connection. When in Upload Mode its the hellish one as xda deveopers have said before..
S8+ phone is Model Number SM-G950U
Witch I believe has now been upgraded to SM-G955U OR F.. But I have the original stock rom still for SM-G950U if only I can get into some kind of Download Mode.
Ive even sat watching odin as I push every single button combination watching the ports appear and dissapear as it reboots trying to find some kind of way to download to the phone... But no luck..

You have a 950 u locked bootloader. First mistake trying to flash twrp. Only option you have is finding the revision bootloader you where on edl files and pinout to 9008 edl mode. There as of last known no fix other than for upload mode only.
Thank You

Mate there are 7 different revisions of the 950 u bootloader. Across all the software updates. No offense intended. But if you can't even give this little bit of info I can assure you. Your not gonna be able to dissemble this device. Ground out the test points to enter edl. And flash needed repair files. Which is very tedious. If there is any issues. I would mark this device as lost and get another. I dont feel that you have the necessary skills needed to complete this process...

You are not in edl mode. You are stuck in upload. The only way to get to edl mode is disassemble the device flip the motherboard upside down while hooked up. Ground out a test pin on the mother board while connecting the usb cable.

How?
I saw in another post that you are aware of your chinese version. So you probably already tried flashing this version ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/official-oneplus-9-oxygen-to-color-and-back.4256457/ ) just patch the to Oxygen again on the chinese version.
How i can patch i told my phone is stuck in Edl mode hard brick
So no fastboot commands are working? Fastboot devices says nothing? Say what you tried, and your current situation in as much detail as possible. People can only help you when they understand what happened and what is still possible to do.
Brother my device is stuck in Edl mode because when i connect to pc it show me qualcomm 9008 in device manager..
I tried all Fastboot commands, power + , power - button & power button but nothing happened still device stuck in Edl mode and also msm tools of india doesn't work
Did you ever get a good flash from msm tool? If not try the original chinese version phone came with.
Also you can try holding power button until phone reboots but nothing to boot too will just go back to edl.

Do you told me about solution?
My phone battery was 100% when it's stuck in Edl mode any idea for 100% to 0%?
Holding the power button an unreasonable long time always worked for me did it with 6 and 7pro. Even if it goes back to edl if you have msm ready and waiting for device v when it reboots to edl should pick it up and begin flash

I see what you mean. Not sure what sahara error state is. Not sure you'll be able to fix that on your own. You may need to contact oneplus see if they can help. They tend to be willing to help in most cases. But may cost you since I'm sure this wouldn't be covered under warranty.
sahara error usually happens when you flash the wrong firmware.

"Payload dumper 64" can get the files for you that's an application there is also a python script which does the same.
I personally used "payload dumper 64" then flashed the files vis fastboot to recover 2 Chinese variant until now( you have to use the right rom which is normally used to switch from Chinese rom to Oxygen)
This is just how I recovered the phones.
Edit: sorry it's late you are probably looking for the msm download tool files, I probably messed things up

Question EDL mode

Hi, I'm having a brick issue with my moto g100, OEM is locked so I can't flash/boot anything. My only hope of getting it back is booting into EDL and blankflashing the device... problem is, I can't find a way to do so. Does anybody here know how to enter EDL mode with this phone? I've tried several button combinations, EDL cable, but nothing works. The only thing I've left to try is shortening the mobo pins, but I don't know which ones, let alone if the board even has them.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have a super easy solution. Go to the Google app store. And download the premium bugjaeger app on a different Android device so basically you're using another Android device to run fastboot commands just remember with Android 11 make sure you give both devices debugging access

If you can access fastboot.. try "fastboot reboot emergency"
I know this is prob too late for a suggestion, however have you tried chimera tool to bypass the edl lock? You don't have to pay for that part of the tool
