Bricked Axon 7 A2017 - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Hi all. I've an Axon 7 A2017 (Chinese 4/64). It's bricked but i think it is not hard one. Because notification led is working. When i try to turn phone on ZTE logo shows up and disappear. I added video. I can't use mi flash tool because i can't boot edl mode.

You should be able to get to EDL like this:
1. Power off
2. Hold both volume buttons
3. Plug device into computer
You should see device show up in EDL mode (USB 05c6:9008, Gobi Wireless Modem).

Oh, that is unexpected. I thought only the G (Euro) models did DFU mode.
Sorry man, probably time to go ask for an RMA.

No twrp/recovery mode either? I know chinese 7.1.1 bootloader introduced dfu mode.

nothing. just like in video

The video doesn't show you trying.

It's a pity, but a ot of guys (including me) made that to their axon 7.
I didn't unlock the bootloader before any actions with root. And got the same bricked device.
It appears in DFU mode only. And as far as I know, there is no flashtool for Snapdragon 820 in DFU so far.

Any luck?

Bricked A2017G B03 - help please

Hello!
As title says i bricked my Axon :crying:
I followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68738854&postcount=100 (and the german one that linked to this one) but couldnt do the fastboot unlock.
So i couldnt finish this and my phone required a pin number to start android: bootet and started up but wanted a pin code to start/enter system.
Wasnt able to fix that with googling for answers so i went back to edl mode and rewrote my backup boot/recovery images with axon7backup.
Had no errors with that but it wont start now:
After the ZTE Logo the display goes black but it connects as "handset diagnostic interface (DFU) (ComX)" to my computer.
I fiddled around with driver installing etc and forced the HS-USB QDLoader 9008 on it but no luck, axon7backup/root can not connect.
When i did the actual flashing yesterday it never connected with the hold both vol-keys and connect usb way either, always had to reboot into edl via adb.
I cant boot anything else (no twrp/recovery) it just goes to the diagnostic interface mode.
Thanks in advance
you can try to get into adb mode with this:
- power off your device
- hold the vol down key while plugin in the usb-c cable (connected to your pc)
- keep holding
- you should get a white box with FTM factory test mode
- you are free to use adb again - so you can get into edl mode as well....
for pin part that'S normal while unlocking your device encryption gets deleted and you have to abort and factory reset your device in twrp....

Thanks. I tried it but it wont go to FTM. Only goes to diagnostic com port.
It seems i cant even turn it off. The little red light on the front is on the whole time .
sadly the disadvantage of a built in battery, so you have to wait till the battery is empty and try my instructions then....if it's not realy off it won't work, the mode you are currently in you usually only reach if you switch it on while holding both volume buttons, the edl mode is sadly not reachable with a key combination directly on G models.
adb don't show your device?

Oh ok. I expected ftm to work from vol-down and power-button till restart.
@adb: sadly no connection possible since it goes straight to Comport Connection.
Edit:
Couldnt make that work. It was off and i connected the usb. So it showed me the loading battery picture where i cant do anything. held the vol-down the whole time. But as soon as it had some battery it went straight to comport-connection again
im sorry to say, but ur device is bricked to a degree where you would need ZTEs Flashtool to fix it. Unfortunately we dont have that tool, so you might have to send it in
i have the same exact problem :'(
Have u been able to fix it?? I'm in a situation that i cant even send it to ZTE to fix it :'(

Hi,
couldnt fix it myself so i had to send it in.
Unless some tool/rom was released in the last few months to fix it yourself i would guess your device is bricked.
Hi I have almost the same problem, I tried to unlock bootloader and now I don't have the recovery, I can boot and use my mobile but I can't restore it or update it because I don't have the recovery
I try whit axon7tool to restore the recovery but I got a error.

Hi, do you have any idea, if there will be such a flashtool to work with DFU mode? I'm thinking that there are a lot of guys have bricked their devices (including me).

Just type
adb reboot edl

You bricked it. Which guide did you use?? All of them tell you not to do this dumb crap ?
You didn't have to lock in order to update... Just downloading a flashable for your phone model would have been enough
You'll have to enter DFU at least. What happens when you hold both Vol+ and Vol- and insert the cable (other end on the PC of course)? If a red LED turns on, then you are on DFU. Open device manager and tell me what you see under Ports (COM & LPT). If it is DFU then you can use MultiDL to enter EDL, then an EDL package to fix your mess

Ok i Did what you said but in the Tool i cant see anything.
Connect state: Disconected
@UltraBackfisch: Near the top of almost every page on XDA it says "Search forum" and "Search thread".....use it.....it's kinda like searching Google.
It's normal for the DFU MultiDL tool to say disconnected. Did you read the instructions? The only point of this tool is to get your device into EDL, then you can use MiFlash or Axon 7 EDL Tool to flash.

Hi internet,
I obviously need help. I accidently bricked my 6T again and it seems to be permenant. I tried to used the MSMdownloadtool but the tool can't detect the device. And the device is in a Qualcomm CrashDump Mode. It shows Attempted to kill init! exit code=0x0000000b do_exit. I got to go but is there a way to fix this.

You can restore you device using fastboot rom. Search for oos 6t fastboot rom.. There are guides for installation.
P.S. It will give a whole bunch of error in the cmd during installation but don't interrupt the process as your device will be restored in the end
Use Mnm tool to fix your phone. It can fix hard brick devices and guidance is there how to use .
PS: this is not right place post next time post on Q/A section.
Hold all the buttons down till it shuts off, almost a full minute. Then get it to boot to fastboot, power off. Then start up msm, then while phone is unplugged and off, hold both vol buttons for a 4 count, then plug it in. Msm will day connected, hit start. Let it finish and reboot. that's all
Qualcomm crashdump is not the same as download mode, and will not work with MSM. You still need to put your device manually into download mode.

Hold down every button till it shuts off, then force reboot to bootloader, then select power off to make sure it's off. Then do as I instructed above to fix it. Sometimes u can just run a fastboot rom to fix it, or boot twrp and flash a rom. I do this multiple times a day sometimes.

Thanks everyone who replied. The whole thing started when I tried to update my TWRP the wrong way and I got nothing better to do. I was on 3.2.3-1 and the newest on the website (TWRP) was 3.2.3-2, but I flashed the image instead, into vendor. This got me into the Qualcomm CrashDump Mode and it kept on rebooting to it as well. There was no way that I was be able to use the MSMDownload tool to recover my 6T as the tool couldn't detect my device as it was connected as Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E not Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008.
I pressed all the buttons and got into FASTBOOT mode! Then I booted TWRP, luckily all my stuff isn't corrupted and I did a Nandroid backup beforehand as well. So, I just restored my Nandroid backup and voila I got my 6T back. Thanks again everyone

If your using windows search for device manager to see what your device is being detected as. Try and reboot if your device isn't Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008. Once it shows that try and update the driver, but you'll need to be a admin. Have you installed Oneplus USB Drivers?

Help I can not get in to fastboot mode. Im stuck in Crashdump mode. Even when i power off the phone holding powerbutton down for a while it will powerup again and the unlocked bootloader warning window with "press power key to pause boot" will not react to any presses.
Also booting and holding down power+down will result in the same and go to crashdump mode.

Phone stuck on EDL mode and Error firehosecheckrsp failed errno 258

hi, everyone , i m tring to revive my hard bricked oneplus 8 pro but without any luck i m getting "firehosecheckrsp failed errno 258" error , i tried every possible solution a did find (Drivers, Cable, USB 2 , other pc) , i m convinsed tha i shoud start search for a motherboard replacements (even that i coudnt find on the internet)
so please if anyone could help me (Phone stuck on EDL mode - recognised by pc but buttons combination doesn't work )
If you're in edl mode, have you attempted to MSM back to stock?
That's about as low level as you can get, so from a recovery perspective if that doesn't work then nothing will.
Also have you tried holding all the buttons for a long time? Say 30 seconds?
Bare in mind that EDL mode will not remain on for very long, you have to have the MSM tool open and ready for the connection, then with the phone off. Connect it to pc and hold volume up and down, you'll hear the windows ding and it'll say connected on the MSM tool, then and only then click start, flashing should commence and it'll remain locked in EDL until complete.
Lastly you're in warranty so you shouldn't need to buy or replace anything.

Did you make sure you changed the target device?
Also, what model 8 pro? Are you using correct msm for that model? And it almost sounds like you aren't using correct drivers. Qualcomm USB drivers are needed

Hey, I think you reached out to me on YouTube. Do you know for sure which model of OnePlus 7T you have? There are two common versions in North America HD1907 (T-Mobile) and HD1905 (international unlocked)

Hey Nick, thanks for responding. It was bought unlocked North America version but then ATT customer support went into the phone while trying to fix something and I think they locked it right before it crashed.

Looking around, the North America version should be running international firmware (HD1905):
OnePlus 7T hardware variants
I was curious about the different hardware variants of the 7T and decided to ask support once EU launch went over and they kindly answered. HD1900: China HD1901: India HD1903: Europe HD1905: North America HD1907: T-Mobile USA
forum.xda-developers.com
I presume that you're using this MSM tool - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...l-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.3994835/
Did you try all of the steps suggested by OP, yet?
Install drivers
Change to factory cable
Different USB port
Different Windows computer?
The only thread I could find where this problem was solved was on the OnePlus forum. The user completely removed and reinstalled the Qualcomm drivers (a different PC should handle that) - https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/solved-closed-trying-to-unbrick-op5t.956810/
