Honor 8 dead .... only notification led

My honor 8 died on the lancet side lights up 1 red led and then 5 times the green led and then come back. The usb connection is dead so I can not work with any program to try to re-enable it ....
Anyone can give me an explanation of what these LEDs can be ???
Thanks to anyone can give me just an indication:confuso:

This situation was created after an upgrade I believe with firmware no good
Repeat push power button vibration and usb dead pc does not detect, anything starts then flash 1 red led and then 5 green repeat this cycle 3 times then turn off

If I connect the phone to the charger does not turn on anything does not charge ...... after 3/4 hours I find it hot.
The usb is no longer responding to anything ......
Only the power button makes it vibrate one time and after a second the second vibration and starts doing that notification led sequence

Thanks for the interest you are very kind
I've been trying to load it all night but nothing has changed.
From the calculations I did during the last flash within the update.app, these images were deleted: sha256rsa, crc, curver, verilist, efi, fastboot to try a recovery.
After this happened ..........................
I was programming with dc-unlocker
Thanks again for your help.

I'm trying different combinations with the tast but nothing to do ......
The biggest problem that the usb is not detected and can not attach it to the pc

I've already tried with usb 2.0 always dead
I've tried in power on all keystrokes and I've never heard sound recognition windows usb

On no , no fastboot we cannot do anything .just take it to care and they will fix it .

And dload option with the correct firmware in the sd card not work starting with 3 buttons method?

I'll make it pretty easier for you if it's your luck that shines your phone will revive
First do this
Plug in your us type c port of your charger on the phone while holding volume up button for like five seconds. Then leave it to charge for 5-10 minutes and the press power button simply . If it revives , good! If not, let's continue
Now if this didn't work and your have one very simple option of press the volume low key and power button while plugging in your usb type c , which is connected to a PC.
This will open your fastboot and rescue more - open hisuit on pc , hit recovery and it should do the magic
If this also doesn't work , try unlocking bootloader via the same process and flash a recovery and receive your phone.
If nothing of this works , welcome to the league of dead honor 8.

I contacted dc-unlocker what I was using and advised me to try to short-circuit and pass a fimware test I should succeed. But he does not have short-circuit procedures for my honor8.

I want to ask for help: I'm not sure but could start charging a firmware including bootloader iso when booting with the led.
The function is through the SD with the dload in the previous models used by au_temp.cfg and the firm update.app I believe au_temp.cfg can give instructions to switch to the firm's upload.
The problem I find nothing au_temp.cfg for my Honor 8.
Can someone help me??? Any of you have contacts with huawei to ask this info ????
Thanks to anyone who can really help me

Hello friend
I'm sorry about your situation. I googled a bit to try to find a solution and what I found was this:
https://www.google.dk/url?sa=t&sour...ggzMAU&usg=AFQjCNHnbiPHjoFd2-SXkWsS_zzHVxM1-w
It seems like three persons in this thread had the same problem and two of them had tried returning the phone to a service center and got it repaired for free.
Maybe it is a fried motherboard and if that is the case they will never know that you tried flashing anything on the ROM.
All the best!

I think the steps should be clear. It's always the same since OnePlus 3/T. There is only one little different thing.

Hi friend, what is that different thing you say? Some is the first time we have a OnePlus, so we do not know.
Another question I have is that my OnePlus 7 works fine, but I wanted to see if this program recognizes me my OnePlus in case I ever need it, how can I enter the necessary mode to be detected by this program?
I press volume up and volume down and then I connect the cable, at that moment the program makes me "connected" (see attached image, left side), but after a few seconds it appears that "disconnected" and the phone restarts and OSS starts .
When I connect it, the images "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3) appear in the device manager.
I do not understand why my mobile when I connect it by pressing the volume buttons and without touching anything of the program it appears that connected and after a few seconds it disconnects itself and OOS restarts.
Regards, and thank you very much.

The different part is you need to press volume up and volume down. With the older phones there was only one button. Don't remember volume up or down.
Not sure why your phone disconnecting automatically.

Hi friend, could you try if the same thing happens to you?

Made the mistake of locking my bootloader directly and bricked the hell out of my standard 7. I kept getting "Your device is corrupt and it can't be trusted". No Recovery accessible, only bootloader.
Followed the steps here and everything is back to normal now!

Hello friend, could you help me to know why when I connect my device appears as connected and after 10 seconds it automatically restarts the OOS operating system? My phone works well, it's just a test to know if one day I have a brick to know that this program works in my case.
I would need (now that your device works, like mine) to start in a way that the program detects and looks "connected", then wait a moment and without pressing any button on the program or phone to see if it restarts alone. I am thinking that if the phone works well, the program when connected only starts the system automatically.
Read some messages above in case I have not explained myself well.
Could someone who has a good phone confirm this? Can the program attempt to automatically restart the device if the "Start" button of MsmDownloadTool is not pressed within 10 seconds?
Thanks greetings.

Yep, same here. Maybe it's because device isn't bricked. I'm not sure about that. Never tried MSMTool when my device wasn't bricked.

hello, thanks for trying it, then that happens, if it is not locked it restarts, or maybe the EDL mode restarts for security if you don't press Start on the Msm tool.
---------- Post added at 12:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 PM ----------
Indeed we have already resolved the doubt about why EDL mode is disconnected after 10 seconds. It is a security system, you have 10 seconds to press Start. here another partner who has tried it and that happened to him, until he hit start and flashed everything well.

I see that you sent a private message to me also and mentioned that you got into the Bootloader. That is not what you need.
First of all, you will need to install the qualcom drivers from here: https://www.androidjungles.com/qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-9008-driver-64-bit-windows/
Afterwards, you will need to hold both volume buttons, and after a few seconds connect your phone to the computer via cable (while still holding the volume buttons).
The phone will be detected as a Qualcom device and you cand start following the tutorial that was provided earlier.

Hello friend, I already managed to enter the EDL mode correctly, the doubt is that when I connected it after 10 seconds, the phone disconnected and relapsed. That's why I said that if I could test now that your phone works, it also automatically restarts without touching any Msm program button once connected in EDL mode.

Something with EDL mode in OP7 is currently wrong.
As the predecessors wrote, after connecting, it is interrupted after a few seconds and the phone reboots.
I also have OP3, OP6 in them after the EDL mode is switched on the connection is maintained all the time.

That's what @Thelargeportion wrote at OP7Pro thread:
"Yes, it did on mine. I've just used this tool to recover from root to stock.
Noted that if the program isn't started within 10 seconds, the phone rebooted automatically, I'm guessing as some sort of security lock. Restarted in EDL, connected to the MSMDownloadtool and executed the program as soon as it was connected and it flashed absolutely fine.
Note that after the phone is restarted after a successful flash, it takes about 1-2 minutes to boot again having stuck on the OnePlus boot logo."
Could be true. But nevermind... It works and that's important.:laugh:

Yes, it is the most important thing that it flashes the system image.
However, it does not maintain a permanent session in EDL as
in previous OnePlus models, and that may be worrying.

Hello friend, yes, that happens to all of us, it is not an isolated case, but if once you enter EDL mode and connect the phone to the PC and it appears "connected", you press start and everything works. You must press start in 10 seconds since entering EDL mode, once you press start, it no longer restarts and blinks correctly.
This of the 10 seconds occurs in all OnePlus 7 series (normal and PRO).

Do I need to use an EDL cable...?

I had this exact same problem last night. Plug it in via USB and make sure you have volume on your speakers. Press and hold volume up, down and power and for some reason the bootloader will come up. Pick power off, then press volume up and down at the same time and plug your USB cable into the phone and listen for the connection sound.

Might have bricked my phone?

I was using lrteam twrp 3.4.2b-1206 and I was sideloading the vendor update for 12.2.1.0 when the progress bar froze. I gave it 10 minutes and held the power button to reboot and now the phone is showing no signs of life i cant get it to even show the poco screen. I've got no ideas left on what to do.

To try to restore the phone yourself, you must use commands in fastboot or adb.

the power button for a minute didnt do anything either sadly. Im trying to get into edl so i can try and recover it with QPST, but even after opening the phone up and trying to get into edl through hardware, i was only able to get the red charging light to start showing whilst charging. Should I try to disconnect and reconnect the battery maybe?

You can try this:
Recharge the battery for at least 1 hour (even if you think it is already charged)
after connect it by usb and press the power button first,power button with volume -, button with volume +, and try to see if it appears on the pc and in what way.

Question Rog Phone 5 Died

I bought my phone from Aliexpress and is tencent version flashed with global. After opening and setting it up, it was working fine and started playing pubg. After about 1 hour, it just died. No warning or anything, just ploof.
It doesn't respond to anything, power, volume +, volume -. Nothing when it's not charging.
But When I plug it into its charger, it does a boot loop.
When charging on the side, it boots up the android logo then the ROG logo but dies right after.
When charging on the bottom, it flashes the android logo and dies.
While it does that I held the volume up button, I can access fastboot and it stays on with the options:
- Start
- Restart bootloader
- Recovery mode
- Power off
I tried every option to no avail.
When I plug out the charger while in fastboot, it dies.
I think the battery connection is fried.

Why dont you flash a Firmware through edl and give a try. If battery doesnt hold up after unplugged even after flashing new firmware then its a hardware problem mostly. There is a thread regarding flashing through edl. Check it out

I tried but my laptop can't detect my phone. Can you send driver please if you have.

That Mi flash tool only has the necessary drivers. I had it installed from it long time back. I dont have specific drivers. Maybe you can do a search for qualcomm or 9008 USB drivers. Or you can try in another pc.
Make sure you turn off the phone either from bootloader or manually. Then while pressing volume up plug into pc and check.

Did the flash go through?
I would suggest to flash a CN version while being on bootloader.
Use the side usb port, and make sure to use a good cable.

Charging is handled by the firmware. If the firmware breaks, it seems to disable charging. It may be partially because the battery is split. Either way, a full restore seems to fix the problem.
