Unbricking Gionee elife e7 from total hard brick

Unfortunately I was one of the users that hard bricked their Gionee elife e7(my story - i tried to activate virtual softkey then systemui stopped working and I tried to flash with KitKat firmware but got fire hose error and that began my troubles). Well I guess my loss is your gain.
Generally the problem is not the flashing but the fact that it is connected as a USB hid instead of qcom hs-usb qloader 9008/9006(mine was connected as 9006). After trying so many combos and waiting for every last battery juice to dissolve, I found a combo that 'might' (not guaranteed) get you connected as qcom hs-usb qloader 9008/9006 (as I said before I got 9006 and it worked. If you get 9008 just try and see if it works .
Note:
- no download links will be posted here. The required files are the gnqc download tool and official stock firmware which you should already have.
- this is only for guys who can't boot their elife e7 at all( if you can boot to fastboot or recovery... your phone ain't dead yet and you could still save it).
- I assume you have basic knowledge of flashing firmware with gnqc download tool.
- I assume you have already installed the required drivers, have gnqc_download tool and have an official stock firmware for gionee elife e7 specific to your phone variant(32gb/16gb, E7/E7L/E7T and India/Chinese etc) of any android version(I used KitKat stock firmware and it worked but I highly recommend the stock jb 4.2.2). For some reason gnqc download tool didn't work properly in compatibility mode on my windows 10 partition but worked on windows 7. So I highly recommend windows 7.
- I also assume you have patience because this is war against your bricked elife and there could be lots of failures!
Now unto serious business!
- if you have just hard bricked the phone and it can't boot up, connect it to your pc, if it is connected as qcom hs-usb qloader 9008/9006 skip next step. If not... follow next step of course.
- Now for the dreaded USB HID. If you drain battery and it still connects as USB HID with blinking red LED try this. Uninstall the USB HID/USB input device the phone installed as(careful not to uninstall your mouse for desktop users). While still connected to PC, hold power button till red light stops blinking. Stop holding power button and immediately detach USB chord then hold volume up and volume down simultaneously in quick succession. Hold them down for quite a while. After much trial and error, i discovered that you have to hold power button for 12 seconds before phone restarts( into the dreaded black screen obviously. Tho it might not be 12 secs but that is what worked for me). So on the 12th second detach chord and press volume up and down simultaneously for quite a while. Then connect phone to PC while still holding the volume buttons(a second pair of hands might be required for precision). If all goes well, four unknown devices will appear in device manager. Wait till windows finishes installation and if you see qcom hs-usb qloader 9008/9006, you are good to go.
- Next, open the gnqc download.exe browse to your phone's firmware location. If it shows cant find mprg8x26.mbn, select 8974 in platform and if mprg8974.mbn is not found change to 8x26.
- When all is set and you see the 'Start download' button turn green, click on it. It should start download hopefully without error messages. After that, It should reboot to red Gionee logo then the white one and then to setup.
If all went well, you have successfully unbricked your Gionee elife e7! And also saved it from all phones' nightmare - your drawer.
If this works well for you feel free to click thanks and if you have a lot of joy in your heart, donate. Good luck and happy unbricking!

Question
Which version of the flashing tool do you use? The site that I found the stock firmware from has Jelly bean stock and kitkat stock but they each have a different version of the flashing tool software. (xdafirmware).
When I connect my phone to the PC the LED light only comes on for a couple seconds and then turns off?
Also does it matter if I have a 64bit windows 7 or 32bit windows 7? Thanks for your detailed guide, I am about to try it. Really appreciate it.

I used gnqc download tool v2.1.0.1, v1.6.9.0 didn't work on my windows 7. I think windows xp is required for that version. I really don't know if it will work on 64bit as mine is 32, but its worth giving a shot. At first my phone's led wasn't blinking but then after draining battery, it installed as USB input device and started to blink. Always uninstall the usb input device when it installs as that because it is worthless to have around. Good luck.

how i know if the battery is drained?
The device doesn't starts to know this.
(sorry for my bad english)

My computer beeps when i connect my phone and refreshes the device manager but i cannot see any new device there.
Am i using the wrong drivers for my device?
Or should i been doing something wrong here.
Can you please elaborate this step of a very detailed tutorial here.
Does anybody resolved the brick using this method and willing to help?
Thanks

Hi,
I have reported this thread to be moved to the right Q & A section where you might be able to get help quickly.
Good luck.

This is why I worry messing around with my G2

Have you tried long holding the power button?
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

Same thing here. Any answers? I can hold the power button and it turns off for a second then turns itself on and these lines show up again. Same setup after using AutoRec on 4.4.2 rom.

This is a known problem. Have LG send you a new one

Sadly way outside the warranty. So it's pretty much toast?

did you try to TOT back to stock?
btw, why were you rooting and messing with your sister's phone in the first place?

Computer won't recognize the device at all, and it won't enter download mode. So I am not sure I can TOT back without that functionality.

Make sure you're phone is fully charged. I had a problem entering download mode with low battery. I also had to try different usb ports on my laptop for whatever reason.

Take the battery out, recharge it through an external charger.
Also enter download mode via inserting USB Cable (Make sure u have LG United driver installed) and keeping Volume Up button pressed for the whole time until Downlaod mode appears on screen, or atleast the screen is on with those lines.
In case of success (i-e. phone shows signs of life), go to Device Manager in ur PC and see if Android Device is connected. Use LG Flash tool 2014 to flash kdz back to normal or try the tot method just in-case your phone is D802/LS/VS variant which doesn't need download mode tbh, just healthy battery.

And sadly this was my phone. I switched for a while and was coming back and wanted an upgrade to the software. I hadn't updated from 4.4.2 as it had sat in a drawer, then did AutoRec (which I thought I had done before) and boom phone is completely unusable.

I can get signs of life (the bars), and windows makes the "you plugged something in and it worked" sound, but there is nothing in device manager despite having the LG drivers installed. Battery is healthy, I used the phone for a day or so to watch videos and stuff. I was working on it there. I think I need to try a different computer.

Expand under "Ports Com Ports & LPT"
And you will see LGE Com Port Device.
Just flash the kdz away if u see so. otherwise go through the tot method if u see the com port devices to change the com port address to com41 and then flash tot.
I tried this on Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8 and Windows 7 (all 64-bit versions) and it worked on all of those. Even with USB 3.0 supported laptop.

Your device is at fastboot mode at background, so use fastboot to erase and flashing img files.For example:
fastboot erase laf.img
fastboot flash laf laf.img
you just need your stock img files

Same problem with me tried Kdz Method. But no luck any idea? It's been 3 months em using it like this. Any help?
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk

So pretty stuck at this point as well. KDZ method stalls at 60%.
UPDATE FASTBOOT WORKING! Took forever to figure out the drivers, but it's working. I have no clue what to do now.
Fastboot won't recognize the device though I have the fastboot driver installed and running. Any ideas?
TOT is just kinda giving up on me. Still chasing down any leads, but the phone feels pretty borked at this point.

Update: Now in download mode! Man this has been crazy. TOT working! Okay so here is how I did it.
First, I downloaded google's ADB drivers and installed the LG drivers as well. I am not sure which one did it. Then I plugged my phone in and went to device manager. For me, it had an unrecognized device and fastboot wasn't working. So I had to manually assign the driver.
Right click on the device and update driver > Let me choose > all devices > Google > LGE mobile ADB interface.
Now fastboot should be working.
Then I used the srktool_2.1. Option 4 then option 4 again, select model number. It reboots to black screen. From there I was able to completely power off (10 second hold on power button). And when it booted back up all the drivers installed. I was able to TOT back to stock using this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476. KDZ might work as well.
Unfortunately the screen damage looks to be permanent. But I think this is worth more now than it was 30 minutes ago!

Lg g3 auto-rec "hard brick" fix

Hello everyone, first let me give major props to my man @bender_007 for creating the amazing LG G Series Autorec Apps which make installing TWRP on LG G Devices a simple process and for also helping me and others who ignorantly misused his app, thanks B!
Anyway recently I bought a LG G3 on Verizon that was on 35b 5.1.1 Lollipop and I rooted. Boy was I eager to get some TWRP poppin on this beast, however flashing TWRP thru Flashify and TWRP Manager left me unsuccessful giving me Secure Booting Error. So desperate I seen Autorec on the Play Store, installed immediately. From there I went through the app's proccesses and from there attempted to boot into recovery hoping for some success.... I did not realize this was went for 24b 5.0.1 until it was late, I mean hey he says it in the description. The phone was dead it wouldn't show anything on the display when I held the power button and it only vibrated, I was f***ed.... At least that is what I thought. I used the method below that me and @bender_007 were collaborating upon as he tried to help me. So please give him credit. I cannot guarantee this will work for you but it worked for me and you don't have to worry about opening up your phone and shorting pins, that nonsense if this works for you.
MATERIALS
A FUNCTIONAL COMPUTER (PREFERABLY WINDOWS, I USED WINDOWS 7)
LG FLASH TOOL 2014: http://www.mediafire.com/?fwrcd3pdj0svjtb
LG DRIVERS-
UNIVERSAL: http://tool.xcdn.gdms.lge.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=UW00120120425

http://tool.xcdn.gdms.lge.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=UW00520120427
THE LATEST KDZ FOR YOUR PHONE MODEL (GOOGLE IT)
Your Dead but Still Amazing LG G3 and a USB Cable
Note: IF DONE PROPERLY YOU WILL STILL HAVE ALL YOUR EXSISTING DATA PRE-BRICK
PROCEDURE
1. Gather all materials, and know the locations of all your downloaded files.
2. Install the drivers for your phone.
3. Unzip LGFlashTool_2014.zip
4. Move the .KDZ you should've downloaded to the LGFLASHTOOL_2014 folder.
5. Open Device Manager (press start, type in Device Manager into search bar, hit enter)
6. Click View, "Show Hidden Devices"
7. PLUG in USB CABLE TO COMPUTER ONLY!
8. THIS STEP IS VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT! TAKE THE BATTERY OUT OF YOUR LG G3. PUT IT BACK IN. CLOSE THE BACK. HOLD VOLUME UP ONLY, WHILE HOLDING POWER UP DO NOT LET GO PLUG IN OTHER HALF OF USB CABLE INTO PHONE. KEEP HOLDING VOLUME UP FOR 20 SECONDS. YOURE PHONES SCREEN WILL STILL BE BLACK AND IT SHOULDVE VIBRATED ABOUT 2 SECONDS AFTER YOU PLUGGED IN WIRE (You'll know when you do it right when COMPUTER says installing drivers in bottom right corner.)
9. In Device Manager under Modems there should be something like LGandroidNET I DONT REMEMBER EXACTLY THIS IS ALL OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD. Anyway, if it says that then you are good, believe it or not your in download mode. (IF YOU DO NOT SEE THIS REPEAT STEP 8)
10. Go to LGFlashTool_2014 folder and run the LGFlashTool2014.exe application.
11. Change PhoneMode to Emergency
12. For "SELECT KDZ FILE" open the folder of the the FlashTool, it should be on it by default and pick the KDZ file.
13. Click "Normal Flash"
14. On the next SCREEN click "START" at the bottom
15. Now there should be a pop-up that says "Select Country & Language" Do not mess with this, just click "OK"
16. There should be a SCREEN now that has a % or whatever... From HERE TO THE END OF IT DO NOT UNPLUG YOUR PHONE!!!
17. When you hit like 85% your phone will boot up do not UNPLUG still and once it hits 100% your done! Safe to UNPLUG and YOU FIXED YOUR PHONE!!!!!!
If you have any questions please ask I have pure empathy for anyone who goes through this hell.

The first time I attempted to connect the phone I successfully had the phone under the modem tab. After being unable to find a .KDZ file (after a minute of searching) I stupidly tried another approach. Now after that not cooperating, I came back to attempt this again after finding a .KDZ file and am unable to set up the device properly to show under the modem tab. I'm following your instructions exactly and gave no luck. Any idea why this would be happening?

The first time I attempted to connect the phone I successfully had the phone under the modem tab. After being unable to find a .KDZ file (after a minute of searching) I stupidly tried another approach. Now after that not cooperating, I came back to attempt this again after finding a .KDZ file and am unable to set up the device properly to show under the modem tab. I'm following your instructions exactly and gave no luck. Any idea why this would be happening?

Okay I'm here to provide my best assistance and for that you'll have to answer a few questions?
1. What is your device model? ex. VS985 Verizon
2. What KDZ did you attempt to flash? ex. VS98547a_01.kdz
Looking forward to your reply.

@wombatthing I would go to device manager go to view "Show Hidden devices" then disconnect your phone take out battery put it back in close back then hold volume up for 20 SECONDS while doing that connect to computer. It probably won't say installing drivers because you said it worked the First time, from there see if it's under Modems. Good luck my friend in here for any questions

Will this method keep all my files that were stored in the internal memory? I'm not worried about the device, i just want my files! Camera pictures etc.
Edit. I tried it but in DIAG mode because i'm afraid emergency can delete my files? I can see the "LGandroidNET " but no vibration and seems like the driivers never install properly. My phone is completely dead.

My friend all is good. First of all as long as it says LGandroidnet you are good you should be in download mode, in lg flash took for mode click emergency and not diag then click normal flash THIS WILL KEEP YOURE DATA IF YOU SEE CRS FLASH OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT THEN ITLL RESET YOURE PHONE just do Emergency and Normal Flash and it should work. Hope I help if you have questions please ask.

@Ray1000 "Emergency" Mode is just Download Mode flashing. Diag is not that's why you were unsuccessful.

Thanks for this! I'm getting stuck at the end (step 16) when the flash tool says:
"Problem with communication between cell phone and PC.
Please disconnect the cable from your cell phone in order and remove and connect the battery. Power on your cell phone and press the Restart button to resume update. If LG Support Tool is stopped abnormally, try with [Options]-[Upgrade Recovery] in tool menu."
I've tried just clicking the retry button, and also unplugging the phone and putting it in recovery mode again before clicking retry. Neither has worked so far. Any thoughts?
Phone is D855, kdz version is D855V20b_00

For all people with Windows 10 an problems with drivers (device is detected by Windows but app is not connecting). Decompress de correct cab for your Windows version, and update the driver "Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008" with the path you used to extract. Now this driver isn't advertising that isn't signed anymore, and all apps will connect with your LG G3
Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 2.1.0.5 x86
Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 2.1.0.5 x64

Sorry for the late response. First of all you are welcome. I don't know if you fixed the problem yet but I'll help anyway. First remove youre battery for at least 10 seconds then put battery in, hold up and connect charger for 20 seconds. Of you are unsuccessful try reinstalling drivers. Best of luck my friend.

Hi, I have tried your method but get stuck on "Problem with communication..." Is this a problem specific to windows 10?
I have attempted to update the Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008 but cannot see it in device manager.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
Thank you for this post. But unfortunately I can not get back my device. What happened was I bricked my phone while flashing TWRP. It's a G3 D855 and does not power on at all. Screen is blank, no LED or vibrate. I tried volume up/down combinations with power button but nothing happens. However when I connect it to PC, device manager shows it under Modem and COM ports.

I tried to flash a stock ROM using your method. But I got following error during process.
The only problem was phone did not vibrate when I connect it as you mentioned.
Do you think my phone is gone forever? Is there any other way? Appreciate a reply.
Thanks!

i also cannot find the Qualcomm's driver on windows 10 & phone looses communication with flash tool..

He guys thank you very much. My LG3 was already down for months after many failed attempts and I was about to bin it. Decided to give it one last try, found your instructions and it works, I now have Marshmallow!! (However I downloaded the KDZ file from "downloadmirror.de" and I am not sure if that was a good idea.

Completely dead after updating

So I downloaded the Android 7.1.1 and installed it via the update tool on the phone. I have not rooted, nor was I running a custom rom.
Everything went fine, until I looked over and noticed the phone was turned off. I figured it was part of the process, but after leaving it, nothing happened. I now can not power the phone on(It won't even vibrate to indicate it is trying)
The LED is also not turning on when I plug it in.
Any ideas?

Couple of questions:
1. Where did you download Nougat 7.1.1 from?
2. Did you get any message when you unzip the file?
3. Did you notice anything unusual during update before you realised the phone didn't turn on?
Try if you can get into recovery by holding Power and Volume Up. If you can, try updating from there. That is, copy the update zip to the external sdcard, find Apply update from external sdcard, press the Power button. Let it finish then Reboot.
Good luck

I found it online, based on the link it looks like it is from ZTE's russia page.
This could be why it happened?
I got no messages at all. I just selected to install from an SD card in the settings menu, and it started everything.
As best as I can tell, it went out while the little android guy was on screen.
Can't get to recover, phone won't power on at all. Tried holding the power button for 45 seconds and that also did nothing.

I downloaded from ZTE Russian site as well and updated fine. Nothing wrong with the software.
As you can't even boot into recovery, I'm afraid your phone is permanently bricked. I'm at my wits end. Maybe someone else has a better idea.

I also have a bricked Axon 7 mini, what we need is to figure out where the Test-Point is located. I have tried to find it without success.

@ viper98,,
In you case, you can send your phone to repair center. This issue might not be fixed by flash or TWRP.
Thanks!

hi. could you please let me know exactly how you did this?
mine is totally dead, no buttons work, not detected by pc in any way.
made a deepflash cable....nothing
only a tiny dash at the corner of the screen, blinking when connected to pc.
if I open the phone and shortcircuit the test point would I get the COM port detected?
this is all I need, but I thought what you did was the same as the deepflash cable does?
PLEASE!!!! I killed it trying to roll back to android 6 after upgrading to 7 loosing my imei,.
now I don't care about imei, just bring it back to life. but to be honest I think mine is gone forever.....
did you remove the battery to make sure the phone was not in charging mode? please....how did you do it?
Thanks in advance

EDL-MODE Test-Point method
1. Open up your phone and disconnect the battery
2. Circuit test-point
3. Use deepflash cable and push button
4. Connect the battery
5. Push button on deepflash cable or change to regular usb cable when you see HS-USB Diagnostics 9008 in device manager. Flash edl recovery image with miflash.
Only Deepflash Cable method without opening phone
1. Use deepflash cable and push button
2. Press power key
3. Look for HS-USB Diagnostics 9008 in device manager.
With the right deepflash it's the same as using test-point. It was not that easy to open the phone. This one from ebay is the only deepflash cable that worked for me, tried my own homemade without success. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-in1-Deep...140594?hash=item3af2795332:g:8kgAAOSw-QZZyfgH

After 2 months I also recovered mine from its "deep afterlife".
The above procedure was quite straightforward, actually all you need is patience, skills to open the phone to begin with, perseverance, but most of all...... faith!
To be honest I'm not sure how, but after the test point nothing happened, and I left my phone plugged in, battery disconnected, and left it alone for a while to finally hear the windows driver sound.......at the end it worked. Thanks a lot.

Xiaomi Redmi 7A EDL mode don't turn off

Hi,
what to do Xiaomi phone (Snapdragon) does not show anything, the LED is on (when it is discharged and then it does not turn on) and "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E" is displayed in the device manager, the phone was discharged to 0% and the bootloader was unlocked. SparkOS is installed and I don't know what now.

Device auto sent to Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E mode is not a good signal, what do you think you did, so device may turn bricked?
If you think, nothing bad was done, try charging the battery, with a 20% it's enough, and try to reboot it, by pressing the three buttons at the same time, for about 8 or 9 seconds,
I don't think this may be the case, anyway, some custom ROMs don't support the device to stay on at a minimum battery level.

If you press the three buttons for about 9 seconds, and nothing, or your device got again to that mode, then it turned out bricked, maybe some bad file in the zip, double check if the md5sum gets something wrong.
If this is the case, you have to start the EDL mode recovering method.

After those 9 seconds, nothing happens. The diode is lit as if it was still discharged and it is not because I had it in electricity for 3 hours. I checked and md5sum is correct. So what about this EDL now? How to do this method?

Now that your device is booting to Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E, then you have to update the drivers to Qualcomm QDloader 9008, this is one of the guides out there about update drivers from https://www.thecustomdroid.com/qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-9008-drivers/
Once you get it, the process is to flash the device as if it was in fastboot mode, using MiFlash tool. And just ignore, the threads claiming to open the motherboard or short-circuiting pins (test point), because your device is effectively booting to EDL mode, so not required.
In that process, if you are lucky and the damage was not serious, then you will be able to do it, in few seconds, but if somewhat the motherboard get "damaged" then it would require more effort to get it work, specially, a technician may be required.

A device bricked it's easy to send to EDL mode, anyway, the drivers need to be updated, as seems you now got it.
MiFlash tool needs an authorized account, to start the flashing, so a lot of errors you may encounter in the process, specially the 3rd it's directly related to that. BUT, keep in mind, that also the motherboard, depending on what exactly you did flash may get corrupted, so a replacement may be required.

I´m pretty sure, unfortunately, that the motherboard got damaged, and needs a replacement.
I had the exact situation, with a device in the past, no matter what I did, I couldn´t get it to work, but then, replaced the motherboard, and need to flash something through EDL mode, at the first attempt it worked fine,
There are another repairing method. that is anyway, up to the service center, the motherboard can be repaired, but, most of times, they consider, that the effort don´t worth it, and they ask just for a replacement, the procedure is called reballing, but again, like most of times, they don´t want to do it, not even, will mention that.
