How to determine OnePlus 8T region? - OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers

Hi all,
After en epic failure of rooting process my OnePlus 8T is bricked: no bootloader, no fastboot, no recovery, nothing. The phone screen stays black and power button has no effect.
However, it can enter EDL mode and is recognized as "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E" in in Windows device manager. So I should be able to use MSMDownload Tool to (try to) unbrick my phone.
Just one problem: I don't really know if my phone is EU version or Global version.
In its back, its written "Model: KB2003" so it should be EU version right? But before bricking it, I've tried to flash Global version... which bricked it (I don't know if that's the reason or if I made an other mistake but...).
Do you know how can I guess the region of my OnePlus 8T?
And if I flash Global version with MSMDownload Tool while I have an EU phone (or inverse), is it dangerous?
Thanks a lot for your help!

KB2003 is the EU version. So best to use the EU MSM tool.

Hi @Qnorsten
Well, I tought my phone was Global so I used Global MSM... The process was a bit weird:
- Global MSM Download Tool restored my phone on Android 11
- once on Android home several updates have been found and one of these updates was KB2005_11_***** (and after this update my phone was recognized as "Model: KB2005" :]
- but after remaining updates (I think there were 5 or 6 consecutive updates) my phone is now on KB2003_11_C.33 and recognized as "Model: KB2003"
So this OP8T has been restored on Global OS, then updated on US OS and finally returned to EU OS :]
Weird but it's a good ending

A bit strange, but as long as it worked for you everything is fine I guess

Yes definitely I really though my phone was dead.
When I set it to EDL mode, it stayed in this mode only 12 seconds then switched to "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E" state.
I tried to run MSMDownload Tool during these 12 seconds (I knew the process was longer than 12 seconds but as my phone seemed dead I guessed maybe the bootloader could be restored during these 12 seconds).
But starting the process allowed the phone to stay "stuck" in EDL mode.
Good experience. But now I won't try to root my phone once again.

Question Super-Hard Bricked OnePlus 9

I have an extremely big problem, maybe someone could help me here?
So today I tried to flash diffrent OOS version on my OnePlus 9, I did it with fastboot, after the command "fastboot reboot fastboot" the screen on the phone went blank and there was a sound on the computer as if the phone was still connecting and disconnecting. Now, the phone does not respond to the buttons, the charger, I cannot enter the fastboot, only the EDL mode works, but I cannot use the MSM because it does not detect the phone, I get the "sahara communication failed" notification all the time, previously the same MSM version was working.
Probably the most important thing is that it turned out that the OOS I tried to flash was actually ColorOS, I didn't pay attention to it, I don't know how it happened.
I feel like an idiot, I'm afraid that I will not save this phone myself and that the repair service will also not accept it under warranty, any suggestions?
MSM cannot recognize your phone aka. Sahara Connection error? Check this.
Hi! Today i successfully bricked my OP9 to the point where the global MSM tool couldn't recognize it anymore. I tried everything, from different MSM tools to this thread. Nothing. Then, Deus ex Machina, @flameteam recommended me to try...

Brother what is your phone model is it Chinese (Le2110)? or another model ?
bro i have the same issues , did u found any solution & can you help me plz
See if these steps work for you: (last post)
Display becomes unresponsive after OOS 12 update
I upgraded my OnePlus 9 LE2115 from OOS 11 to OOS 12, and every time the phone reboots after completing the update, the touch screen is completely unresponsive, so it stays stuck at the lock screen forever. I upgraded from OOS 11.2.10.10 to OOS...

Hey, i have hardbricked my OnePlus 9 and now i have the connect and disconnect-problem in the EDL-Mode. My Model is a Lahaina and i hope it is the same like a Lemonade or a OnePlus 9. I was on the latest Android 12 for the OP 9 before it gets bricked. How i bricked my phone: First i have unlocked the Bootloader and after that i was trying to boot into TWRP. The bootscreen from TWRP comes and the screen gets black and then into boot dump mode. okay, then i installed this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/fastboot-rom-pc-required-op9-stock-oos-11-2-2-2aa.4275727/unread and the message <awaiting any device> shows up and i disconnected my phone. After that my phone just shows black and on the pc it just shows up the "QDLoader" (yes, the driver is installed) . How i could bring my phone back to life and fix the partitionproblem/connect & disconnect problem. The MSM just shows "Status of Connection: N/A" and "Waiting for device". I am using an Laptop with Windows 10 on it and an intel chipset.
I think i have killed the partitioning of the oneplus by downgrading from A 12 to A 11. Thanks for your help. By the way: I have downloaded the MSM with Indian OS and I have still the same problem.
I´ve got exactly the same situation and problem as DerBaLu841... Anything to do for now or is the OP9 finally hard bricked now..?

Question [SOLVED] From bricked to working phone

I have a hard bricked OP9 and have tried alot of different guides from here or other ressources.
The problem is somewhere in the process something is not supported and the how to dies there.
MSM download tool prompts that says "Packed image not exists!"
OP9 LE2113 version (EU Version i guess)
Phone is black screen and can not be detected through ADB or fastboot. Either through the Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008 Drivers.
Before it bricked it was unlocked (bootloader) Not sure it is anymore
Can someone send me a link or guide that can guide me the right direction?
Try the Oneplus 9 Pro India recovery tool. I know it doesnt make sense, but its the only thing that has worked for many, including myself and I have a OP9 5G North America.
Once recovered, the OS will boot but buggy. You can then restore to correct image via twrp full zip
Ill try that this evening, ill let u know ill turn out.
I typically run into sahara connection because i dont have connection through ADB of fastboot

Question Hard Bricked OnePlus 9 (LE2113) HELP!!

I hard bricked my OnePlus 9 (LE2113) while I was trying to unlock the bootloader. I tried flashing with Global, EU and Indian variants of MSM Tools but none of them worked.
I'm holding Power and Vol Up to reboot, then I hold Up and Down Volume buttons, plug in with USB cable and start MSM Tool. Every time I try to flash with "Use LIte Firehose" unchecked I always get the "Sahara communication" error at exactly 18 seconds. With "Use LIte Firehose" checked however download completes normally but phone is still hard bricked. This happened on every MSM Tool I tried.
I tried this on two laptops (Win 10 with USB 2.0 ports & WIn 11 with USB 3.0 ports) but ended up with the same results. I'm also using official cable. I have Qualcomm drivers installed.
Can anyone help me? Phone is hard bricked. I can't access anything besides EDL.
Just noticed this thread after your comment in the MSM thread.
Please review my reply. In a nutshell, I bricked my OP9 to a point nothing would work, tried everything for days. Thankfully, EtherealRemnant told me about a specific MSMToolkit for Indian OP9Pros that would get my phone up and running and then be able to flash a proper OP9.
I just compressed it and uploaded it for you, in case you haven't grabbed it yet. Its hosted on mega, so the download should be acceptable wherever you reside on this dirty space ball we call home.
IndianOP9-ProMSM aka The Last Hope
And again, good luck, you got this!

I managed to flash with Lite Firehose but phone is still dead. I had some issues with phone being recognized but it somehow connected. I have also noticed that device under Ports (COM & LPT) is being recognized even after unpluging the phone, weirdly.
deleted because double post sorry
your device is an eu model i would not answer it with the india msm tool or the modded msm tool, you should get it to work with the eu msm tool
I don't know to what extent the modded msm tool has been processed (my concern is that if certain data on the mobile phone is changed from eu to india, I am concerned that the eu msm tool will no longer work with the eu mobile phone afterwards because certain data now identify cell phone as india model)

Hard bricked Xiaomi 10 Lite in EDL mode

Hello,
First, some context:
After a factory reset of my Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite 5G (the phone is more than 2 years old, the warranty expired), the phone worked fine for a few days, but while playing a video game it suddenly crashed, then it showed up the following error: "Your device is corrupted. It cannot be trusted and will not boot."
Then the phone started displaying random white and black horizontal lines everywhere on the screen before shutting itself down again.
As of now, the screen stays completely dark, no sound, no vibration, no LED flashing, nothing shows on the screen whatever key combinaison I press.
Nothing happens when charging the phone either.
However, the device is recognized as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" when plugged into my PC, so it is in EDL mode.
The phone has never been unlocked, nor flashed, and was (before this incident) running on the official MIUI 13 (Developer options had never been activated, nor ADB and it never entered into fastboot mode).
tl;dr; The device crashed without notice and put itself in EDL mode after displaying a worrying error message.
I tried draining the battery, no luck, nothing changed.
The phone is recognized by MiFlashPro (latest version: 7.3.706.21) but it shows a forseen error saying i need a authorized Mi account to flash it (but I don't want to pay 25$ a random guy on the Internet to flash it for me, knowing the device might be dead).
It is also recognized by QFIL, and I got my hands on a "patched Firehose" to bypass the authorized Mi account, but it always ends up showing the QSahara error (the error remains the same whatever firehose I select, patched or not, and whatever rawprogram*.xml too).
So, does anyone know how to flash a hard bricked Xiaomi in EDL mode using QFIL?
Anyway, I tried to be precise and concise, I hope someone has a working solution.
Thanks in advance for your answers!
PS: I tried to flash Monet EEA Global V13.0.4.0 (MIUI 13).
I have had the exact same problem happen to me with a Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Pro (tujana).it's just that I bought the device already bricked by the previous owner who flashed it with the ROM for the wrong device, namely the Redmi Note 10 Pro(sunny/mojito)I've since then succumbed to giving money to strangers online to flash it, but the flashing kept throwing an error(couple of guys tried it) and I couldn't flash it myself with QFIL as well, getting the same error messages as you. So I decided to dig a bit deeper and found out that the primary bootloader that is bar unflashable in those devices(please someone correct me if i'm wrong here) is different on the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Pro that has version 2 primary BL and the Redmi Note 10 Pro has version 3. I do not know why and how the previous owner flashed the device to hardbrick it like that. I can't seem to figure it out. If anyone comes up with a solution I'm buying.

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.

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.
