I am somewhat new at rooting, though I have rooted 3 phones. I was rooted on Android 4.4.2 and when I flashed a ROM for 5.0 my screen turned black. It won't turn on, I can't get into recovery or download mode, and when I connect it to my computer through USB it registers it as QHSUSB_BULK. I am stuck right now, is a JTAG the only way to fix it?

Does it charge or at least get warm? What ROM did you flash? Did you flash it via safestrap?
Can you access that bulk folder on your computer?

I don't know if it is charging and I flashed a rooted stock ROM for 5.0 (OA8) and it was via safestrap. How would I access the bulk folder, as it says driver is not installed?
A Verizon ROM? I thought you said a folder came up on your PC called something bulk.

It is not a folder, it detects my phone through usb as that. I don't know why, maybe I flashed the wrong ROM?
You were supposed to go back into download mode from safestrap and flash the OA8 kernel

After further investigation, the file I flashed was OA1, but the download said OA8. I should have been more careful. Is there anything I can do now?
It probably is a brick. Pull your your battery for at least 10 minutes and try again. Still not sure where it is saying bulk folder.

Okay, I will get back to you on that in around 15-20 minutes. And it does not have a bulk folder anywhere, what happens is an alert pops up on bottom of screen saying "driver not successfully installed" and when I click to check the driver it says QHSUSB_BULK where it should say Galaxy s5. Hopefully you understand, as I want to fix my phone.
Oh, under devices. This is probably a brick. Sorry.

How can I fix it, and how can I tell if it is a hard brick or a soft brick? Also, after 10 minutes with battery out, I cant turn on, or boot into recovery/download mode.
Try charging it. If it doesn't even feel warm it is a hard brick.

Like you mentioned, JTAG. There are JTAG services out there. I actually bought a riff box because I bricked my s4 but I got my warranty company to give me a new phone so I never had to use it.

I was VERY stupid. I went back to stock Oxygen OS using a fastboot image and now if I dial #*06# the IMEI box shows up but no IMEI number is actually in the box it is just blank. I did post about this before but last time I didn't really know what happened I was asking if anyone could tell me what they thought happened. I am pretty sure I screwed up the EFS partition and I am just wondering what I need to do now. Is there some way I can repair it I mean I don't have a backup. Can I contact OnePlus support? I really need help.

This happened to me a few times in the past, all I had to do was wipe dalvik and cache again and it came back. Not sure if it's the same issue but I would give it a shot. Just boot into recovery and wipe them again and see if it gets you back up and running.

then, flash H2OS. (Oxygen Os won't work from that recovery so, H2OS. Later you can re-flash though)

I cannot use that because my device is not hard bricked and it will not install the driver since I can enter the bootloader normally.
Not sure if you've seen this post its based on the post above but I think it just uses fastboot. Don't know if it will work for you, but figured it would be worth a shot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62973446&postcount=2
I tried using the tool and it did not work, I purposely hard bricked the device to try it and still no signal or imei. Another problem is WiFi takes about 4 minutes just to turn on but I can live with that I just want service.
Basically flashing back the stock should bring back the efs. Let's see if someone has a solution. Sorry!
EFS files are unique to each phone. If the EFS is corrupt or damaged, and there is no backup, I don't know of any way to fix it ;_; You can try OnePlus support but they aren't as dumb as carrier warranty or other phone manufacturers. They'll be more likely to know what you did.
It is possible to restore your imei number, I did it on my brothers lg g2. It requires some software for PC (I can't remember the name, you'll have to google it) and the box your phone came in with the imei number. It is possible, so don't lose hope!

Have a look at this link http://droidmodderx.com/galaxys3/?page_id=79 I really can't remember how I did it and without researching again I won't know. It's a rough idea to maybe help you, I think the device just needs to be in USB debugging mode. I can't help anymore sorry and good luck.
any fix for this yet?
Same problem also with my op2 . No imei no baseband
So I installed the revolution mod ( nougat ) and my fingerprint sensor was not working so I installed the stock firmware and because there were no fingerprints saved on stock , I factory reseted the phone , then I installed the revolution rom again and it was working for few days but now it stopped working again ( sometimes it does not recognize it and sometimes it doesnt even vibrate Like i would not even have my finger on it )
To me that sounds like an hardware issue and therefore needs to be sent in for repair.
I don't think it's an hardware issue.. the ROM has some problem with some people, I suggest you to try stock ROM for a few days to verify if the problem is related to your device or the ROM.

To me it sounded he installed stock and it did not work there either.
Ofc if it works in stock it should be related to the custom ROM.

Well if you are on a Nougat build, you cannot just flash a MM update.app
You either need to flash an OEMinfo file first (old method) or use the official Huawei rollback method (new method).
If you did none of that, that might be the reason why your phone does not boot.

You need to get that code it is your only option.
This can be done with the DC Unlocker but it will cost you a few bucks and you need to find a guide in here or somewhere else. Or you just figure it out yourself. I have never used it.
You can also try to get the code again by using the Huawei site but you need your IMEI and some other stuff. I guess some of it can be found on the packaging that your device came with...

I mean you might try to find a way to get the needed information with adb but I do not know how. Maybe a Google search can provide more info.
There are also several threads in here where people tried to recover the bootloader code from a bricked device.
Just make sure to SAVE it somewhere safe once you retrieve it

Normally you get it over the phone dialer but since you are in bootloop...
I don't know...
There are programs out there that generate the product ID but I have no clue if they work for this device.
Use the huawei site where you get the unlock code and you will find that the id is found by typing a code on the phone dialer.... there you will find what to type on the phone.

I can't access the phone
So here's what happened:
Got a message to reboot my non rooted Mi A1 in order to finish the november update
Clicked on it and waited for the reboot, which took a while
Screen kept flashing, but mostly a black screen with now and then a flash of my background and the task bar in the top of the screen.
Went to this forum to find answers and solutions
OEM was locked and couldn't access the phone, so unlocking OEM and flashing stock was not an option.
Saw someone mention you can switch the active partition. It was set on B and I changed it to A.
Phone works fine with that option, but the message that the update has failed keeps popping up and it gives an error when I try to redownload and reinstall the update.
If anyone knows what the recommended steps are to fix this issue it would be most helpful!
PS. Also if I have to unlock OEM that means it will wipe the phone right? Any tips on backing up the apps including their user data (meaning I won't have to reconnect authenticators to my phone, won't lose game date etc.)
Try to remove sim and disable PIN.

Does that method wipe the phone? If I am correct you have to unlock the bootloader which requires a complete wipe of your phone.

You can also take out your sim from your Mi A1, boot your Mi A1, disable pin in settings, shut off, put your sim back and boot.
