Hi all,
I posted this in the Atrix Q&A but it doesn't seem to have had many hits, thought I'd try my luck here (here is the original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594675) ...basically my Atrix emmc internal memory card is borked and I am trying to find a way to restore it other than SBFing to factory (which is risky and a hassle...).
rickywyatt kindly told me to execute these commands in an adb shell and to post the results:
adb shell
# cat /proc/partitions
# fdisk /dev/block/mmcblk0

well my results are as follows:

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1942720.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

I'd say flashing an sbf is alot easier then that haha.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
If i where you i'd try to leave it as if was new and take it to motorola service, they change it to a new one. If you did unlocked the bootload (i guess you did) i think that there was a way to hidde the unlocked at boot.
GL with that!
UPDATE:
Working on QPST tools now:
* Need to find prog_emmc_firehose_8x10.mbn
The goal of this project is to gather all the information and tools required in unbricking a hard bricked Moto E (1st Generation).
Possible methods:
1. Blankflash
Requires: singleimage_8x10.mbn, qboot utility for Moto E, programmer_8x10.mbn
2. MiFlash
Requires: fastboot script, fastboot or mfastboot, MPRG8x10.hex, 8x10_msimage.mbn, rawprogram0.xml, patch0.xml
3. QPST
Requires: QPST tool, rawprogram0.xml, patch0.xml, prog_emmc_firehose_8x10.mbn, flat build/single image, multi build/sparse images.

Thank you so much bro... Could you please provide me the full partition information table? More the information, more better..
Here's the link on how to do it: Partition table
I've just dissected a 8x10_msimage.mbn file. And I found 4 partitions:
1. SBL1
2. DDR (No info on DDR.)
3. RPM
4. TZ
I don't know what this DDR file is. I'd like to see the size of this file(in Kb) on the partition table.

You're welcome. :good:
Maybe its helpfull
Will this method mentioned for LG G2 with Qualcomm(QHSB BULK) fix the file or here it's totally different thing? I am really keen in this project because my device has been dead since 5 months.
Have you got a solution?
I would like to participate in this project
Can i be of some use in this project ? Ive tried all possible ways to get my phone to life but failed .
Keep it up Guys..... We all are waiting. ..
Thanks guyzz to start the project of reviving moto e back to life i too bricked it 2-3 month ago. ill help u guzz in testing and collecting data and giving it here.lets unbrick our device....
[Edit]- if u need files from moto e tell me ..... i have a spare working moto e also.
You can recreate all the files needed, but you can't sign them. Non-signed files won't pass verification and it won't work.
Don't let that demotivate you though, you may come up with something that we didn't see when the first Moto G bricks came around more than year ago.
Try and report back
Did anyone try this method for One Plus, please report back.

Its not even proper for OnePlus One but ColorOS plays is its role here. So I think it might work as Qualcomm Device i.e QHSBULK
I have looked at and tried every manual or how to I could find all over the web. Nothing seems to be working. Even if I run a getprop sys.usb.config it shows that the phone is in Diag,adb. However, I am not getting a comport showing up in Windows device manager. Does ASUS disable this process?
Have you enabled developer options in settings and selected "USB debugging" ?
If so, sounds like it might be a Windows driver issue. Grab the latest ones off the ASUS website and post back.

Yes, yes, and yes. Have done all that. Once in Diag mode it is suppose to show up as a Qualcomm comport device. Didn't doesn't even show up for me to install drivers.
when you plug your phone in, do you see "usb debugging" in the pull down menu?
Maybe another member can help with the Windows issue as I don't use that OS.
What are you trying to do?

Yes, USB debugging is activated, and I can ADB just fine. What I am trying to do is put the phone in USB Diagnostic(Diag) Mode, not USB debugging. When in USB Diag Mode the phone will communicate to the PC as a serial comport. This will allow me to use the Qualcomm Utilities to possibly edit and unlock LTE bands on it.
Ah, my apologies, I thought you meant debugging mode.
Maybe someone else can chime in to assist.
Have you tried a different computer? Post a link to the software, I'll try it on my Linux box. I could really use this software on the ZenFone Ultra if it works.

Yes it is the Ultra that I am trying to use it for. Posted here because there is more traffic, and thought maybe the devices are close enough that if someone figured it out on the Zenfone, that it could translate to the Ultra as well. There are multiple guides on XDA, but this is the main one I was trying to follow:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059
Although I do admit I have been bouncing around from guide to guide, basically everything that Google search could uncover.
You'll be my wife's hero if you can get this done. Post back how it goes.
Edit: I see the ZenFone 3 ultra zu680kl on willmyphonework.net shows different 4g bands than the phones for sale on gearbest. Which bands did you need and do you have any idea why they're different? I was looking at the global version not the China one.

I need 2, 4, and 17
I need the same, lol
In my researching, there was one guy that said he got it to work with an asus rom with an app called "ASUS log tool e". I downloaded that firmware, extracted the app and tried to install. It didn't work, said the app already existed. Maybe there's a hidden one already on our phones?
I also tried win7 32bit and linux, can't detect my phone either.
On updating to nougat, I have lost root explorer (latest version from the play store doesn't work). I'll keep messing with it.
You find anything?

so, I think I got it to work. Using your guide you referenced, I can browse the nv files with qpst and read the data from ID 01877 in qxdm. I stopped there because all my LTE bands work and I didn't want to mess anything up, lol.
I forced windows to install "Qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008" drivers after I executed a script I found that enables (I think) diag mode.
Can you take a look with your zu680kl ?
I used the script from doroid.org/2017/01/24/zenfone-3-ze520kl-rooted-diag-mode/

No way, it works? So you have successfully enabled those LTE bands? Omg, I'm buying that phone now!

wait, lol. sorry the computer seeing the phones an a comport part works. I am in the process now of trying to edit the bands. I will report back soon, hopefully with good news.
Lol
Ok, well to test that you have successfully enabled them, the app "network signal guru" is the only one I've found that displays the correct in use LTE band.
Good luck!

Not looking good so far. I get right up to rewriting the NV values, but Everytime I reboot to set the new values they always resort back to the original values. From what I have read this maybe a fail safe setup in the kernel by ASUS. In which case I can get around it with a stock custom kernel. Non of those lying around. I have no clue how to even compile one myself. So more research I must do.

Did you happen to get the correct SPC code for QPST? I have read there are issues writing the NV values without the correct SPC code, how did you get it? I tried reading 00085 (sec_code) and get a "no diag response". Edit: I updated qxdm and confirmed it is 000000.
I am trying to do a full NV backup through the "software download" part of QPST and it doesn't complete. Have you been able to? I'd feel more comfortable if I had a full and proper QCN backup before I started messing with it.
Are we assuming Asus injected the anti-tamper code into the stock kernel only? So compiling the stock kernel with unmolested source code should be all we need?
---------- Post added at 04:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 AM ----------
forgot to add some partition info I got when I was bored. I made some dd backups of all the partitions too, just missing the QCN backup file.
EDIT: From what I've read, the IMEI info is stored in the modemst1, modemst2, and fsg partitions (mmcblk0p24, mmcblk0p26 and mmcblk0p27). If a QCN backup is not possible, I would definitely advise backing up these.

doctahjeph, have you made any progress? Did you write "0" value to 6828/6829 before writing 134283487 value? Have you tried the new Lineage OS rom (https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/development/unofficial-lineageos-14-1-ze520kl-t3587178), maybe it'll allow you to write if you just flash the kernel from this rom? It'll definitely FC like a mofo but might be enough to write the NV values.
I tried this on my wife's phone, the Le Max x900, got into diag mode, re-wrote the nv values , even got the new LTE bands to show up in network signal guru but it won't switch to them (I deselected band 7 and it wouldn't switch to 2/4/17 like my zf3 does). I'm not sure this works for all the phones, unless you've found some other info out? I'm wondering about NV 1878 which I've read needs to be changed, but if there is no version of the phone that comes with those bands enabled, there's no way to know what the value should be. I tried flashing a modem from a similar phone with those bands enabled and soft-bricked it, lol.
anyways, if you need any values from zf3, let me know.
Any luck with this. I am donating 500 bucks to anyone who solves this. Enabling all Lte bands to work
