Urgent! Help with the MSM tool (stuck in Param preload)

Hi
Please help! I have downloaded everything in this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/msm-tool-guac-t3934691
It contains "guacamole_21_O.07_190512_repack" and "L2 drivers"
I have followed the mega unbrick guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3934659
So far the pc can find "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM7).
But it stuck when I use MSM tool to unbrick it!
It keeps Param Preloading.
Please, any help will be really much appreciated!

I had a similar issue at first. Verify the drivers are good to go (it shows up as the right device in device manager) aside from that, try to boot into recovery or something to shut the phone down. Now hold down both volume buttons at the same time - followed by the power button. Immediately plug the phone in. Took me a couple tries but eventually you will succeed.

Try different drivers. When I ran into that issue I found different drivers on another website which ended up working.

thanks for your help. I have searched a lot and it seems it is the newest so far.

Thanks for your reply. I just did exactly as the instruction suggested. The device name in the manager was showed correctly. But still, the msm tool stucked at the param preprocessing stage.

Try installing Google's Android USB driver from Android studio, then try using the msmtool

Hi, I think it is not the adb side problem. Because when I use my laptop to connect to another phone, it works fine. Some one suggested the oneplus driver is not the latest. Actually I have checked the forum. It seems it is the newest one AFAIK.

Try to use the oneplus red USB cable if you arent already

thanks, well, do you mean the oneplus driver? I have installed it already.

this took me a couple of hours to figure out so hopefully, it works for you all. I got a program from the xda forums called TOOL ALL IN ONE which can put your phone into edl mode at the click of a button. I also went to the device manager to make sure the phone was showing up as Qualcomm and not the QLK_ USB thing. if it shows up for you you have to download the drivers. I updated the drivers through the windows update > view optional updates > Drivers and install the Qualcomm one and restart pc. Then plug your phone in have the TOOL ALL IN ONE put it in edl mode then quickly open msm as administrator and uncheck Sha256 and press start. I think my Qualcomm driver was out of date and that might have been what caused me to have the param preload issue.

Thanks but this does not work if you are stuck in Fastboot mode.

Finally got it to work. Turns out the vast majority of problems people encounter while trying the MSM Tool is with the Qualcomm drivers.
I found the correct (and latest version) drivers.
Just unzip the CAB file, uninstall any old Qualcomm drivers you have tried, and then install this one. It should work!
Let me know if you need any assistance.

Tried but not working. Tried 10 different drives, 3 different laptops with all the USB 2.0 ports but still no luck. Don't know what's the issue and why am keep getting stuck at param preload. What should I do?

Are you making sure you are uninstalling any other drivers? You should only have installed the correct version.

Yup. First uninstalled the other driver and installed this one again. Will give it one more go and share the outcome. But its very strange to me how confusing all this is. Can't get my head around why on Earth its not working. Am literally sick of not getting update. Badly want to flash the international rom to my Sprint OnePlus.

Remember to reboot between uninstalling and reinstalling drivers. Also try to use the OEM cable that came with the OnePlus.

I think I killed my brand new phone

I've been running the crDroid OOS 10 OB3 ROM since I got my phone two weeks ago and everything was fine and I updated to OB4 today. Well, after I tried changing system ui themeing my phone stopped displaying any system ui at all so I tried to restore my nandroid backup. My nandroid backup took 4 hours then when it got to bluetooth my battery was dying so I had to stop it.
I rebooted into TWRP and tried to clean flash the rom but it gave me errors about mounting the data partition so I tried changing slots.
Well after I changed slots I am stuck in fastboot mode and can't get back to TWRP and adb wont recognize my phone. There's no bootloader or baseband version displayed on fastboot and the product name/variant is msmnile/SDM UFS, my phone is still unlocked if it matters. Someone in the ROM telegram suggested I try the MSM tool but my phone doesn't seem to want to boot into Qualcomm mode and I'm worried that might be a big issue.

Hi!
I really don't know if this helps because you might have already tried it, but I had a similar problem where the normal fastboot mode didnt work and I had no Recovery. Someone suggested, that I should hold Volume Up, Volume down and the Power button all at the same time and from there I was able to revive the phone with the All-In-One Tool...
I quickly looked up the Qualcomm Mode and MSM-Tool you mentioned but I'm still not sure if that is what I just described, so Im posting this just to make sure you tried it because it was a really easy fix when I thought I bricked my phone
Sorry if you already did it, anyway Good Luck!

Well see the issue is I'm trying to get All in One to recognize my phone but it won't seem to boot into EDL mode. I installed the Qualcomm USB drivers but it's still not showing my phone. When I use the key combo suggested to boot into EDL mode my phone does refresh in device manager giving me the qualcomm device so I assume this is download mode just not displaying the text anymore. If i try the key combo with my phone unplugged it takes awhile but eventually goes into fastboot.

In this case I can't help you, i googled EDL, it is what I meant and it was all I got :-/
Wish you good luck

If your bootloader is unlocked try to flash the fastboot rom from fastboot.

what the problem u are facing while flashing from msm tools?

If you haven't fixed your phone yet just use MSMtool it will fix it, this phones essentially unbrickable.

I installed the qualcomm drivers and it showed up in MSM tool and gave me success after 6 seconds but nothing else happened so I unplugged my phone now it says device descriptor failed when I try to go into qualcomm mode
If i uninstall the drivers and try again same thing and trying to use the qualcomm driver files tells me my driver is already up to date

Well you need to hit start once it's connected. https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/msm-tool-guac-t3934691 follow the instructions there with the phone being unplugged and powered off open msm hold volumes while not hitting power at all and wait then plug into the computer.

During Installing drivers again choose the option (something of) search from internet. And let the file be downloaded and install. Trust me this method works. I too had same problem

Okay I got the descriptor issue to stop and MSM is detecting the phone again but its still not booting to anything when I run the tool like the guide said it should. I do upgrade mode right?

Your file does the same thing
The connection status switches to N/A but if i stop it and enum it still detects the phone
I used the drivers provided in your link and it still doesnt seem to work
that status bar at the bottom says Running: Upgrade though but thats just an indicator of the job task, no?

Need help with hard bricked oneplus 8T

Hi everyone,
So, I just picked up a oneplus 8T, unlocked the bootloader, loaded TWRP, backed up my stock rom, and attempted to flash the vanilla version of the arrow rom. Everything was fine until TWRP said that something in the flash failed towrds the end of the flashing. I went back into TWRP, tried to wipe everything except internal storage and try again. The wipe also said that it failed. When I clicked reboot in TWRP, it got stuck in a soft boot loop.
I got the phone to boot back into recovery mode, and used the platform tools to get it back into fastboot. Somehow, I lost the stock recovery that I stored on the internal storage. I found this link, which had a one-click flash-all to bring an 8T back to stock OS.
Unbrick OnePlus 8T from a Hard-Bricked State using MSMDownload Tool
A complete guide on how to unbrick the OnePlus 8T from a hard-bricked state using the MSMDownload Tool and restore stock OxygenOS software.
www.thecustomdroid.com
My 8T is an unlocked carrier version, so I chose the global version labeled kebab_15_O.12_201110.zip
Once I unzipped it and clicked the flash all exe, it opened a terminal window, connected to the phone, and seemed to be flashing properly. When it finished, the phone rebooted, but never really rebooted. It is stuck on a black screen, which I believe is EDL mode.
The only sign of life now is when plugging in the USB cable, I can see the phone in device manager under OTHER DEVICES and it is labeled QUSB_BULK_CID:0412. I found another thread which explained this means the USB driver has been corrupted. I downloaded and tried to install the qualcomm drivers from this link

Is there any way to unbrick this oneplus 8T, or did I just destroy it forever? I really feel like it should be able to be reflashed and fixed, I just can't figure it out. My next step today is going to be to call oneplus support, explain the situation, and hopefully they have some sort of insight for me, or at least a tool to get the proper USB drivers back into the phone so that I can access fastboot again.
Any help you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated.

well I tried to install a rom from this section, and need some form of recovery, so I figured the people here would likely be able to help. I will gladly post in another section if I have to...

Hey, ah, I assume it is done yet recommend disabling DSE (Driver Signature Enforcement) in Windows & then install the driver.
To do so, open CMD with admin privilege > type: bcdedit /set TESTSIGNING OFF and then try installing the driver. Because drivers don't usually failed to install or run properly. I understand the severity of the device's condition and also I'm glad you chose not giving up that's great, again I'll say install proper drivers after disabling DSE and then flash the original stock software. If it boots in EDL means its recoverable. Happened with me many times but the device was of different vendor/oem. Great luck.

I just searched qualcomm hs-usb, and found a download for the computer. After installing it, I rebooted my computer, and device installer now finds the phone listed as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 and assigned it to COM3. I have not had luck yet finding a working version of the MSM Download Tool. Every version I find and download says "packed image does not exist"

Can somebody give me the msm download tool? I have downloaded 4.0 from a few places and can not get it to work. Most downloads say package does not exist as the above screenshot shows. Others seem to work, and give a message that msm tool is running, but no windows ever pop up to log in or anything.
Am I doing something wrong trying to use the tool?

I can not get into fastboot. I believe the phone is stuck in EDL mode. I have gotten MSM Download tool to open, but it will not flash to device. The tool knows that my phone is connected to COM3, but the MSM tool says waiting for device after clicking start, and never goes any further.
If anyone has experience with the MSM Downloading Tool and can help out, please chime in.
Thanks for the help everyone. I'm slowly getting there.

So, I noticed the caution label on the device in device installer...which usually indicates a driver problem. I reinstalled the qualcomm driver, and it says that it is installed properly. Is there an updated driver or something that I am missing?

try this method...
i thik this will help you to unbrick your device...

I can follow that exactly. The problem comes down to when connecting to USB cable and pressing start, the tool always says waiting for device, as if my device is not in EDL mode. I really think the issue is coming down to drivers for the phone to communicate with the tool. I do not think there should not be a caution symbol in device installer (as noted above) when the driver is properly installed. (even tho windows says I have the latest qualcomm driver for the device)
Does anyone have an updated driver in case I have an incorrect version? I am using the below. It says from 2014, so Im not sure that it is the correct driver. I got the link from a oneplus 8T post somewhere. I do not recall exactly which post it was.

your windows version? windows 10 or 11?

It was the driver signature enforcement.
However, that was not the only issue. After disabling the signature enforement, it was connecting to the device, but still not working. The stsus in the configuration panel started to connect, but then failed in red. I tried it a few times with the same result. I tried holding the 2 volume buttons while plugging in the USB, that didn't change anything either.
What ended up working was holding all 3 buttons while the tool was connected. It caused the device to momentarily disconnect and reconnect to the USB (via disappearing and reappearing in device installer, as well as the laptop making the disconnected and connected sounds) As soon as it reconnected and the laptop made the sound, the tool instantly started transmitting data and functioning.
My phone boots up as it did stock now, and does not even tell me that the bootloader is locked anymore upon first power up. It is 100% functioning just as it came out of the box!!!
I CAN NOT THANK THIS FORUM ENOUGH!!!!!
I have been using information here for years since I rooted my first Galaxy S3. This is the first time I have had to make an account and post.
You guys are the best, and were my only saving grace. Oneplus doesn't even have a working phone number anymore. All support must go thru email.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!
I hope this information helps somebody else.

Idk if im doing something wrong but nothing happens

Ok, so if the MSM tool never shows any indication that it has seen the phone in EDL mode, doesn't start the flashing, etc, but you hear the computer noise when you plug it in, you should investigate your drivers.
Open up the Device Manager and then plug the phone up in EDL mode. EDL mode is achieved by holding both volume buttons while plugging in the phone. Look in the device manager and see what comes up. Somewhere around here are the correct drivers. Look at all of the unbrick / msm threads and one of them will have a driver download for you.
It sounds like a brick, and you are only getting into EDL mode, the mode used to flash back to stock with the MSM tool. So. Drivers. Check them out, and get that sorted and I believe you will be able to revive it.

The TMobile msm might work but most likely won't if it doesn't use the OnePlus 9 pro msm and you need to install the driver that @AtoZ0to9 has mentioned

Does it connect to the msm now also calm down same thing was happening to my phone and it's working fine now you'll be fine

I remember that I did something with the drivers in the process, since the abd bootloader was not detecting it for me, I really do not know if it influences.
this is the driver "android_winusb.inf"

Ok well you need to download the OnePlus 9 pro msm tool

I still feel like this is possibly an issue with drivers / USB ports etc. Don't worry about other peoples phones, theirs is working. You are working on one thing and one thing only. The connection between YOUR phone and the computer. Have the device manager open ALL the time. Hook up the phone and whatever pops up, click it, hit the delete button on the keyboard, check the box to delete the driver. Download the drivers I linked, and unzip them and run the file. Hook up the phone again to a different USB port. See what comes up. It will most likely be the correct driver, if you followed the steps correctly. Run the MSM tool again and click the start button. If it drops the connection before you hit start, unhook it, hit start again, and hook it back up in EDL to a different USB port. Just gotta keep playing with it man. Mines weird too. I have to use one port for fastboot stuff, and one port for EDL stuff, and sometimes they aren't the same port it was previously. These are temperamental phones. Stay strong, be focused, use your training, we believe in you.

Dude the TMobile msm is absolute dog**** and when I bricked my phone using the same guide he did I had to use the India OnePlus 9 pro msm tool as it was the only msm that worked so no it's not a problem with USB ports or drivers I had literally the same exact error and I ****ed my phone the same exact way so while there may be a extremely small chance that this fixes it it's still extremely unlikely that it will fix it

Kinda makes sense since the service is too. Thanks for the clarification, that the conversion guide does weird **** sometimes that makes the regular MSM not work?
I'm lucky to have the NA model which isn't as much dog ****, or just a smaller dog anyways. Seems the carrier variants suck more.

Question [HELP!] Needing to flash OP9 back to stock, but I have some issues...

Trying to flash my friend's phone back to stock but having some issues, you might have seen twixyfig's post in the OnePlus 9 Pro threads, but it's a regular OP9 and not the Pro.
Anyways, I have been trying to flash to working condition but MSM won't help. It keeps saying "No valid trg ID" and "Param preload" for a while now. This happened because we tried to root the phone but failed. The bootloader is unlocked, and fastboot works too.
TIA.

Whenever you post asking for help, always make sure to add as many details as possible. Your phone model, variant, current firmware, the tool you are using, the tools you used before, the steps you took before you started facing issues, every detail you can possibly tell. Only then someone might be able to help.

Download the MSM Tool (Global) from this link. Global works on Chinese variant (LE2110) too. Have proper drivers OnePlus drivers installed. Turn off your phone and set it aside, do not connect to PC yet. Run the MSM Tool exe file. Once its loaded, click Start and it should wait for device. Now on your phone, hold vol+ and vol- buttons (no power button), and connect the cable to phone. This will make the phone enter EDL mode. The PC would recognize the device (USB plugged in sound) but phone screen would still be black. On MSM, the flashing would start and would be done in about 4-5 mins. Good luck.
