#########################################
Information
If your phone has a official ROM/Firmware installed but it is rooted etc. it will work without bricks.
Let's get started
1.0 Download Firmware/ROM (.QSB)
Code:
###REQUIRED###
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=94094
1.0.1 Extract the .7z file with ROM/Firmware you downloaded at 1.0
1.0.2 Connect the phone via USB-C cable to your computer and create a folder called "sdfuse" at the root of your internal storage.
1.0.3 Copy all the exctracted .qsp files into the sdfuse folder.
1.0.4 Shutdown the phone.
1.0.5 Hold down the volume- button and power on the phone. At second vibration release the power button, but still hold the volume- button. Now the developer recovery menue should be shown.
1.0.6 Select "Sd update" and confirm with power button.
1.0.7 Hit "apply" or "OK" with tapping on it. Now the flashing procedure will start immediatly. After this was successful hit the reboot button and you're done.
*¹ You flashed a Custom ROM via TWRP means Custom Firmware / Custom ROM. Furthermore if your merchant flashed a ROM with multilanguage support (more than English and Chinese) and it's unable to gain OTA update (non rooted - if you don't know what this is you are not rooted!) your device running on a Custom Firmware!

Half-bricked
Hello,
I just recieved my new phone and wanted to update it right away but at this end I got it bricked , so fast...
At first, I followed your 2nd method via internal-sd.
Everything went ok until the reboot.
Unfortunately, it gets stuck at the ZUK logo.
Nothing moving forward.
So then I used the first method, QPST/QFIL one.
But here comes a new problem, at one point, I get the following error message:
Download Fail: Sahara Fail:QSaharaServer Fail: Process fail.
Could you please help me to make it works?

Update of 18/98 => everything is now solved.
I changed from my laptop to my HTPC and everything went fine... My Zuk Z2 pro works again!!!! I am so happy.

password for rom z2 pro
hello, when extracting the Rom you ask me what a password, send me through my email [email protected]

Hello,
If you read the entire post, you will find it I promise .
FAQ is always your best friend.

I am also having the same issue. I am currently on mokee custom rom. I want to return to stock and can enter edl mode. Phone is detected as usb-qdloader 9008. Tried QPST tool on 2 different computers, both have the same sahara fail error. Any help guys?

You need to extract all ROM files into drive C using a short folder name
e.g. C:\zuk\
no subfolders

I'm running into the exact same issue. Did you do anything different on the new machine? Unfortunately I do not have another machine to try.. Any helps would be great
EDIT: I was able to get this work. The trick is to click "Download Content" as sooooooon as you hit enter on "adb reboot edl"
And once I did that, I did not get the Sahara error but another random error. Tried a different port on my laptop and it worked perfectly

My Gapps sync are not working!
When i put my login information the google account isn´t syncing!

question
Sorry I am new to this. I purchased a yuk z2 pro 6gb ram 128gb storage and it comes with the international custom ROM put on by the reseller. I would like to change it back to the original oem rom. Is this the directions to follow? If this is the wrong directions can you please show me the correct directions.
Thanks

Zuk Z2 pro bricked
Hello,
thank you for this very detailed description of the process!
I did try it and something went wrong, I do not know where I went off protocol, yet now my phone is unresponsive.
It is fully loaded.
LED is blue, screen black.
Long pressing Vol up plus power -> short vibration and green LED, ZUK logo appears shortly, then screen is black and LED blue again.
When USB is conneted, QFIL 2.0.0.4 does recognize a phone. Chirp on the PC. QUALCOMM HS-USB Diagnostics 900E (COM5) in top line of QFIL
When I try to flash, however, it shows:
"Switch to EDL
Download fail: switch to EDL FailFailed to switch to Emergency Download mode
Finish download."
To me, this seems as a complete brick event.
Could someone of the experts please help me to revive the phone?
Thanks!

Hi,
I would like to get all my apps, and settings back from my One Plus on cm13 to My brand new Zuk Z2 Pro.
How do i make it ?
Must i flash it ?
Thanks

What I understand, you can use miFlash to Flash the qfil according to htt p://www.androidbrick.com/zuk-z2-z2-pro-qpst-qfil-miflash-rom-flashing-guide/

I become always this failer when I will flash my Bricked Z2 Pro

Qfil won't recognize zuk z2 pro. Do you have any idea why ?

How do I install these qualcomm drivers ? They aren't executable

I successfully flashed the device according to the logs, but I'm still stuck with a test mode boot loop. I guess my phone is good for the garbage?

[Kitchen] Motorola Q9h

So, after a long time spent on XDA, i want to release a 'kitchen' for motorola q9h.
Motoq Kitchen V1.0:
- Extract *.sbf
- Extract CG33.smg to dump
- Decrypt/Encrypt default.hv and user.hv (Registry files)
- Decrypt/Encrypt initflashfiles.dat
- Compress dump to CG33.smg
- Remake *.sbf
Motoq Kitchen V1.1:
- Added recmod
- Added reversmode
Little Guide:
First thing you should do is to copy your rom ro kitchen\rom\old.sbf
Now extract CD33.smg, open EZX-Codec -> Open -> Extract
Decrypt registry files and initflashfiles.dat
Rom files are located in dump folder
Edit them as you wish
Encrypt registry files and initflashfiles.dat
HEXeditor will open and you must delete first 2 bytes (FF FE)
Now compress files, opern EZX-Codec -> Open -> Compress
Recmod folders from dump folder, will result a dll in recmod folder, edit as you wish and then reversmode.
That's all, you are ready to flash kitchen\rom\new.sbf to your phone using RSDlite...
By the way, i do not take credits for anything except cook.exe

Good, let's say now you want to cook some apps\games\themes in your rom.
Creating package:
- You'll have to download Ervius package creator from bottom.
- Put you *.cab file anywhere (but remember where, lol).
- Extract "package creator" and open "packages creator 5.4.exe"
- Press "open cab file" and point to your *.cab.
- A new window have opened, press "extract cab files with original names in folder", let's extract that in c:/xxxxx, will be deleted after all of this automatically, and close that window.
- Check "default box" and then "done".
- And now "complete the package".
Package is now in the same folder with *.cab
Lets see what we have:
- initflashfiles.txt
- 55635237-d4a2-4d31-a99c-3296c26e3da2.rgu
- 55635237-d4a2-4d31-a99c-3296c26e3da2.dsm
- option.xml
- *.cab files
Import for cooking:
- You must copy initflashfiles.txt content into initflashfiles.dat, that's how you will tell to wm where to copy that files.
- 55635237-d4a2-4d31-a99c-3296c26e3da2.rgu is a registry file, import that in default.hv (HKCR, HKLM keys) or in user.hv (HKCU)
- We don't need the *.dsm file and option.xml
- Now simply copy content of the package (except dsm rgu and xml from above) to dump folder.
That's all...

And 2 themes.

So I didn't get any file in my dump folder.

Yeah, is CG33, not CD.
And about the errors, i have the same problem with some rom's. Don't know why... Is an EZX-codec issue....

im sorry i dont know whats the meaning of kitchen in this context..
is that modding or what?
thanks..

Excellent work Csganja.
I've always thought of the Motorola Q's as special and I'm glad to see somebody finally be able to do this. Now I wish some people would followup and do the same for the other Motorola Q's. They could really use a custom rom update.

thanks, for share

Phone Not Booting up

Hello devs,
recently i flash my ZUK Z1 with ZUI Rom with QFIL and my phone just does not boots up in neither fastboot nor twrp recovery, as good as dead.

I don't know English perfectly,so please correct me in PM ,if you noticed any mistake in this post!

Worked perfectly
Just want to say thanks for posting this, you literally saved my phone, like an idiot I decided to try and relock the bootloader after installing a custom rom, little did I know that was a very bad idea.
I followed this unbrick guide and now everything is working perfectly again.
Thanks a lot

Great advice, thanks
You've saved me £150, thanks. I also re-locked the bootloader after installing Lineage (in the hope it would allow Andorid Pay to start). Thanks

Thanks a lot. I bricked mine almost a year ago and I am so happy to have a completely new phone again

Hi JavaVOBIS, Thanks for replying to my message - much appreciated.
It looks like I now have a different set of challenges. The new rom did not work and the old rom is no longer downloading to the phone too in spite of the previous error !
I have pasted the last bit of the log file below in case you spot something that I'm doing wrong - Thanks.

Ogunefon, can you go to the bootloader?
If so, try installing the firmware via fastboot.
Also I suggest you continue to talk in private messages.

Fastboot update doesn't work, file sizes are too large. Any other advice? Also can't find a qfil in qpst anywhere.

Try installing the firmware TOS118C or any version of Cyanogen OS. Through fastboot it should work out.

Sorry, should have posted a full update. I've managed to boot lineage 13, resurrection, and miui - all have no loudspeaker output! Thhink its gonna take a factory flash to sort it, only got it on the 23rd and it looped that same day during ota but i know speaker worked then. Just tried qfil as a stand alone and got a sahara server error, gonna downgrade qfil and try latest qpst to see if it helps.any other ideas would be most welcome!!!
Edit: it's fixed!! qfil worked with version 2.7.460 of qpst, back to stock and with sound! Many thanks to you all!!

I take it that once the attached CM13 is flashed via QFIL, the Swift 2 will automatically update to the latest official Wileyfox firmware?

To answer my own question, yes - the phone updates from CM13 back up to the latest Wileyfox firmware via a set of OTAs.

I tried this, all works until I get a few fails:
17:24:08: ERROR: function: sahara_rx_data:237 Unable to read packet header. Only read 0 bytes.

What's next?
-edit- After changing the usb driver back to the fastboot one and reflashing recovery it finally booted twrp. Now tried to flash bootloader and after that lineageos14.1 and it is booting... Got lots of errors, but that didn't seem to bother...

Thank you so much, thought for sure my Swift 2 was FUBAR!

Flash Lenovo k5 play question

Hello,
First of all sorry if this is not the correct category. I have a lenovo k5 play from which I forgot the unlock pattern. Normally I go in recovery mode and do a Hard reset. Unfortunately this phone does not have any Hard reset option, and I can use only the fastboot but the bootloader is locked and OEM also. I found this article which explains how to flash a qualcomm device with an EDL cable. Using an improvised EDL cable I was able to connect the device in qualcomm mode and got recognized by QFIL. Selecting the files and hitting download, the flash process fails with this error: "Download Fail:FireHose Fail FHLoader Fail:The system cannot find the file specified". I suspect that the firmware is not good, is my first time doing this. Is there anything I can do, maybe a firmware that is compatible with this device or another flashing software?'
This is the full log from QFIL:

Solved! I used another version of QFIL and it flashed successfully the firmware. I followed this tutorial https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/guide-hard-brick-fix-qualcomm-hs-usb-t3492949

please share this firmware with us ,.......
thank you

Hello,
First of all sorry if this is not the correct category. I have a lenovo k5 play from which I forgot the unlock pattern. Normally I go in recovery mode and do a Hard reset. Unfortunately this phone does not have any Hard reset option, and I can use only the fastboot but the bootloader is locked and OEM also. I found this article which explains how to flash a qualcomm device with an EDL cable. Using an improvised EDL cable I was able to connect the device in qualcomm mode and got recognized by QFIL. Selecting the files and hitting download, the flash process fails with this error: "Download Fail:FireHose Fail FHLoader Fail:The system cannot find the file specified". I suspect that the firmware is not good, is my first time doing this. Is there anything I can do, maybe a firmware that is compatible with this device or another flashing software?'
This is the full log from QFIL:

Do you mean using the "FlashOne1.9" instead of QFil ? But it only accept .zip file !?
I have been using QFil V2019, V2011 and V2005 but still failed !
Thanks

Qualcomm_Flash_Image_Loader_v1.0.0.2 did the job !
The shared ROM is CN (Chinese) version and the no GSM connection.
Still cannot find a global version after a lot googling...........

Switch To EDL fail
When the flashing process, there was an error
"Download Fail: Switch To EDL FailFailed to Switch to Emergency Download mode"
What should I do?

Use Qualcomm Flash Image Loader v1.0.0.2 -
this is the only version that works fine

cwm/twrp for K5 play
I had the bootloader being unlocked after receiving the unlock_bootloader.img file from Lenovo recently.
But I still cannot find a usable custom recovery (CWM or Twrp) from twrp.me nor unofficialtwrp.com.
Too bad..................

TWRP for K5 play L38011
An updated TWRP 3.3.0 for Lenovo K5 Play L38011 was found.
I installed this TWRP and then rooted by magisk 20.
TWRP link :
https://unofficialtwrp.com/update-unofficial-twrp-3-3-0-for-lenovo-k5-play/

I unfortunately flashed chinese rom without backup now no network is available.let me know if anyone finds a patch for it or global rom link please.

Let me know if u were able to fix network.i have same problem.

sorry, bad news
the machine became bricked after restoring by twrp..
I sent it back to service center (still under warranty period)
I had the phone back after a month with new IMEI
Will try to root it again at a later time
It's rather difficult to find much info for this phone except bad comments from users.

Redmi 7A bricked - Help need for programmer file

Hi! I have accidentally flashed the 5A Rom on my 7A rom. I was going to change my rom from a China Rom to a Global Rom. I have successfully unlocked the bootloader. However, I forgot that I purchased a 7A (oopsie xD) and instead downloaded the latest global fastboot rom for the 5A.
I was trying to reflash using MiFlashTool, but it asks for an EDL Authorization.. I also tried to flash using QFIL but to no avail as it keeps on throwing error that the header cannot be read.
I tried to bypass the EDL by downloading the oldest available fastboot rom for the 7A and used its firehose programmer file with the latest 7A rom and flashing it using QFIL. It has not shown the previous error I have mentioned, but another error has popped that it cannot find a file specified.
Any replies would be really appreciated.
Thanks!
EDIT: Here's the log file of the QFIL when trying to flash my phone using the programmer file of the Redmi 7A MIUI 10.2.4.0 Global Fastboot Rom.
If someone knows how to patch or force the programmer file to bypass the EDL Authorization, please help Thanks!
