Your PC should show something like "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" in device Manager. Try to update device drivers, then retry with Miflash.

If you have a custom recovery, DO NOT lock the bootloader, but if you have root with stock recovery, then it's safe

Hello all, I have a Lenovo a6000 smartphone. It was owned by my friend. She had a problem with the android os, so she went to a local store and the there it got hard bricked. Now if I turn it on it only vibrates once. no backlight or any picture. If I press and hold vol- and power buttons together LCD backlight turns on but no display. then it goes off and then again turns on. PC does not detect it. Can anyone help me getting it out from this state?

You need to have adb and fastboot drivers for your phone to correctly get detected.
Here's the LINK FOR QFIL TUTORIAL. You'll need another set of drivers called as the QCOM drivers which are mentioned in the tutorial from the above link.
Hope this helps.
I already have installed the drivers. Still not detected. Even the device manager does not show a device is connected

You should try changing the usb cable you are using. Or maybe that guy in the local repair shop didn't put the sub PCB board back correctly.

Lenovo A6000 doesn't come with a locked bootloader B-l
If you can boot into fastboot then you should flash twrp from it depending on the current android version of the device. If it had been on kitkat flash this TWRP v2.8.6.0 or if it has been updated to lollipop then flash the latest TWRP v3.1.0.
For this you need to first have the fastboot drivers installed and also the minimal adb and fastboot tool. Then place the required TWRP in that folder, better rename the file to 'recovery.img' and then in the CMD window which you open by Shift + Right Click first type
Code:
fastboot devices
To check whether your device is detected by the tool and haa got drivers installed correctly.
Later, if successful, type in
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then you'll have TWRP recovery installed.
Then flash any ROM on the device using it.

Btw are you sure it does not come with a locked bootloader? I tried to flash the stock recovery and got an error saying "unknown command or device is lock"

Yeah bro I'm 100% positive. I think unknown command is displayed when you flash the wrong version of recovery.
You can also try
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Sometimes only this works which temporarily boots into the custom recovery.

BTW does your device gets detected by fastboot devices command? Also, have you tried the QPST method?

You've tried booting into Download mode? It requires you to press the VOL UP + POWER KEY, then you need to select the Download mode in it to perform flashing through QPST.
Also, you never mentioned what android version was the device on, earlier.

I think you are missing something (maybe).
The command is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
If the recovery files name is twrp.img then command will be "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img".
(URGENT) HARDBRICK ... Please help me. I installed a custom kernel in the AICP rom, but I installed it on the recovery partition. The phone now turns on but does not leave the leeco screen. It does not go into recovery or fastboot mode. I've downloaded the Qualcom QPST tool but I do not know how to use it or the files I need ... Does anyone have a solution?

As said, the device does not leave the screen of the leeco, does not start in recovery and fastboot mode. So there is no way I can restore using TWRP. The device is recognized only by the qualcom tool. I need a guide on how to use it. Anyway, thank you for your time.

This method is very important for those with locked bootloader. Can anyone else confirm that it works ??
i can confirm that it enters in edl mode..chk this
doesn't work
Need confirmation from more users, whether this method works or not.
Thank you in advance.
Yes it work if you have unlock bootloader.
if you don't feel like downloading, the command to get into EDL is:
fastboot oem edl
Will it work on Snapdragon variant without unlocking bootloader
not working on 2017 edition... must open the backdoor case to do edl
Have you tried it or just saying?

This doesn't work unless your bootloader is unlocked
If anyone is thinking they can root their device via this method, it's not gonna happen. cuz edl in 4X requires unlocked bootloaders or sorting tow points on motherboard. some people says they can make edl cable for 4X but I've not tested it by myself

I was flash xiaomi.eu package via TWRP and my phone is stuck at edl mode (qcom 900E)
I try to use MiFlash to flash MIUI but it's not recognized my phone
Please help !
Update : I fixed it using EDL cable, turn out I'm stuck at QCOM 900E (black screen,no fastboot, no qcom 9008 and I can't using MiFlash via this port)
Don't panic. Download a fresh copy of the latest official MIUI dev rom fastboot file, force vol dn + power to fastboot mode and then run MiFlash to flash that over 1st. Once that's done, then proceed with TWRP + xiaomi.eu ROM flashing.
I had your exact same issue before.

You sure you tried to flash a xiaomi.eu ROM (which fyi isn't the main method to flash that btw) before? afaik BL will only be re-locked if you attempt to flash back to official stable?
If that's the case then no choice but to redo with the stable fastboot file instead and then unlock your BL afterwards.

Hi there,
i'd Like to flash the Ressurection Remix Oreo Rom, but i don't get it to unlock the bootloader. I'm on Stock A2017GV1.2.0B10 Nougat. TWRP and Backups are done, but when i try to unlock the Bootloader i geht this message in cmd:
adb: error: connect failed: no devices/emulators found
Tried with Zadigs Drivers, ADB divers are installed and it is showed as QS_Bulk.
Are there still some drivers missing or what am I doing wrong there???

First boot into twrp, connect your phone, run the EDL Tool. Normaly the tool should reboot itself into EDL mode
Or try : run EDL tool, instead of power off phone, hold vol down+power, connect usb, just do the same by holding the 3 buttons ( i did that once when my phone was in a state of 'shock' and the 2 button way didn't work)
Btw, did you install the 2 drivers i gave you ?

In EDL tool I was on a good way to unlock the Bootloader, but when I choose Yes, the unlock begins with load programmer something and stucks until I reboot EDL mode.

If you did and it still does that error, just use the manual method and follow Controllerboy's guide. That one uses axon7tool, which is much more finicky and ran by commands, but it works
