How to full backup any qualcomm phone (no root) - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi every body, I had reviced a lot of question about how to backup qualcomm devices. So today I will show you how! (test in Obi SF1)
Because if your phone is not root, you can't back up your rom in case brick when you play with the phone. So you will need this!!!
1: Download all necessary files (in my video description) put all of them in the same folder and extract out!
2: in stall the right driver (make sure your usb connect type is MTP)
When your phone and computer are connected and in devices manager you see some thing with a yellow triangle and the QFIL software show “no port available” that mean you need driver!
To install the driver, run qualcomm_Setup as administrator! Restart your computer. If success, no more yellow triangle in devices manager.
3: now put your phone into download mode by: install QPST.2.7.437 to your computer. Then run eMMC Software Download, chose switch device to DLOAD…> chose your phone >ok, now you will see several new hard disks in your computer , and in device manager you will see something like qualcomm emmc or qualcom mmc... in hard disk field! now close the eMMC Software Download software.
4: Run HDDRawCopy1.10Portable, chose Qualcomm MMC Storage USB Device (your phone flash) then click continue > double click on file > browse to pale you want to save the backup file > name the file, in file type field, chose raw img file > save > click continue and wait to complete (it may took along time depend on your memory size)
To wake up the phone out of download mode, just press all three hard buttons same time in 2 minutes !!! (for Obi phone, may different in other phones).
Link to this document in description too!
Attention: this method no need root, and you will have the full rom back up. But be careful if you chose wrong field you may miss your hard disk’s data, and when you apply the back up again to your phone your phone will really hard brick if you break the process. So if you had rooted the phone, use another method for better!!!

If read back gets interrupted in between will it brick ?

Hi ,
Thanks for the video link. I want to use this so that I can get boot image and recovery image so that it can be ported . My phone is Gionee M6S plus Snapdragon chipset with locked boot loader. I would like to ask while In reading mode ,if by unforseen reason the readback gets interrupted ;is there any chance of hard bricking ?
Thanks

Nope, in backup process just don't format or delete any any thing in your phone's internal memory, your phone will be ok. But when you restore the phone, if the process broke, your phone maybe brick depen on how many percen had complete!

how to restore?

Hi,
thanks for this tutorial but i have a question, my device is Asus Zenfone 4 Selfie Lite ZB553KL (Sd425), i want to know how to wake my device from download mode before i start this tutorial as i dont want to brick my device

Can we backup full boot.img and system.img with that?
Or does it only backup data partition?

Getting the 0x80004005 error also. Any suggestion? The phone shows up as qualcomm device just fine.

find another way to boot into EDL mode. usually you have a timeout ~30 sec

Can we restore userdata with qfil ?

There is no other way to boot into EDL if your screen is completely blacked out and all what the computer recognises is a Qualcomm device in Device Manager.

deep flash cable? test point method?

I have a cable and it doesn't work.
I took my phone apart and did the test point shorting, that doesn't work either.
I have also been told that the phone is already in EDL mode but the problem is me getting that error message!

if it is already in EDL mode, just install Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 Driver

And one of these three States:

UNROOTED (White) = The phone was never rooted.

According to the European legislation a terminal may be rooted without so we lose the warranty, but instead to use the phone we have to accept LG conditions that say that we can not customize the phone.
As it seems, commented by Spanish users that took your phone Technical Assistance Service (T.A.S.) still this rooted and with installed CWM, T.A.S. spent in warranty, so this method is not necessary, but you never know with whom you can bump sat, so here you have remove the ROOT and leave the phone as something out of factory.
UNROOTED METHOD
INFORMATION
This method serves to take the phone to the T.A.S., or if you want to leave it clean.
Download a ROM to your terminal, operated and country, use this link LG Phone Firmware G2
It enters to the CWM or TWRP Recovery.
Now get from:
CWM - Wipe Data / Factory Reset
TWRP - Advanced Wipeo, and the beams all but the SD.
Go to the reset menu or advanced and click on turn off.
While you press Volume+ connect the USB to the PC, enter Download Mode, as the images above
It runs Windows and follow this LG G2 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock)

CHECK IF IS or IS NOT ROOTED
In the dial pad type:
For the D800 3845#*800#
For the D801 3845#*801#
For the D802 3845#*802#
ETC
Go to the bottom of the menu and click on LG RCT then to Display Result
There are two possible results, Not rooted or Rooted

You are here too?! God Blessed G2 !
Gosh thanks so much!! I initially thought that the D802 doesn't have a root trip whoops.

Include internal storage, or not?
one problem with all that - "UNROOTED (White) = The phone was never rooted." should read "UNROOTED (White) = The phone isn't rooted at this time."
my d802 always returns to that state after I unroot and go back to stock I have to do 2 x full factory reset and using the power button down and vol down trick then if you go into download mode it always shows as unrooted in white.

basically I cannot talk for any other model apart from d802 as this is what I have. but basically all you need to do to get it to show unrooted is to download the lg mobile support tool > open it > plug in usb while holding power and vol up with phone OFF to get into download mode > open the LG mobile support tool > go to options (top right) and press upgrade recovery.... the tool will download the original stock firmware onto the pc then install it on the phone. DO NOT unplug it until 100% on the PC. the phone will reboot about 80% on the pc but phone will have reached 100%. next do 2 factory resets using the power button and vol up method and you will find the unrooted status re-appears if you go back into download mode. Its also worth noting that it works best and flawlessly on com port 4 some ppl have experienced issues on other com ports.
obviously I accept no responsibility for you breaking your phone if you try it but I have done this at least 70 x to get out of bad fashes and it works every single one.
takes you about 30 min for the file to download but without that file downloading its probably about 5 minutes user input the longest/hardest bit being getting into the factory reset screen. lol.

ok so if press the start button on windows then type in device manager in the little box at bottom and press enter it will open up.
now put the phone in download mode (be sure to use a rear usb port too, then when the pc recognizes it go to your device manager, it will show Ports (COM & LPT) in the list and when you press the little plus sign to the left of the name you will see the phone and the port number being used. i.e. LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port(COM7).
right click it and press properties > port settings tab > advanced > the COM port number is at the bottom of the box click it and select 4. it will probably tell you something else is using it but that is fine it makes no difference click ok then yes and ok again. Now your phone should show as COM Port 4 in the device manager. now close device manager and carry on using lg support tool.

OK, I have personally tried port 5, and 45 port and not have had problems, since this method which I intend to use the official program, with the difference that we say you must firmware flasher.
Thank you for your information, I used the method proposed for some years with my KM900 and my P990, and I have to say that it works perfectly, and not only that, also the firmware that is installed is suitable to the country, model and telephone operator.
The two methods do the same thing, but his left it because I sometimes giving problems, there were times that said that the firmware that had was the more modern and wouldn't update, I am referring to below the D802 models
PD:
Factory Reset does so from 3845#*802#?

yeah I agree I have tried upto 9 different ports now and all seem to work for me but that is not the case for everyone. I know the whole process is supposed to be done on port 4 which is why I suggested it.
you are most welcome if I help but one person with my ramblings then that's a plus...
yes very true that it will put on the correct firmware for country model and telephone operator!
I have also encountered the same problems myself and this method I have never ever ever experienced one.

Hello! Does your method work with a custom recovery and after the reset will it be gone?
i unrooted my D802 and when it was done my storage reduced from 32gb to 10gb . do you have any idea how to fix it?
What are differences between 10A-10B-20A-20B? I have a 16 GB Italy H3G D802, which rom have I to download?
I've checked a logs and found that com.lge.hiddenmenu.RCT_Check/RootingCheckActivity is running during that flow.
Then, dumped all framework and app files and searched for that activity.
Founded in HiddenMenu.odex file, deodexed ...
Actually they are reading value from that file: /persist/rct.cfg
There is second file that this activity cheks: /persist/rct
There is a logic there if file not exist /persist/rct then show RCT check disabled.
May be that will permanently disable root check?
There could be some other application (service or script) that actually doing root check and write this rct.cfg file.
---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 PM ----------
Tried to remove that two files.
But device restoring them after rebooting.
Needs to find a way how to log who is accessing that file.
Excuse me, I cannot understand.
I have to:
1 - Install CWM or TWRP
2 - Make a Full Wipe using CWM or TWRP
3 - Update firmware using normal procedure wich downloads and install the correct firmware on my phone
Is this correct?
I ask because doing only the 3rd point I still have "rooted" in download screen.
Perhaps I am missing the full wipe in TWRP.
Any help appreciated
OK, found description for rctd tool
Some workaround:
1. If you create two folders in target folder with the same names as that rct and rct.cfg names than rctd won't able to overwrite then, and from hidden menu device won't display rooted status;
2. Remove rctd tool and put clean files rct and rct.cfg from the unrooted device. Files could be found there.
But still OTA detect root

Ok, looks like from 4.4.2 rtcd no longer exists but you need the files in /persist folder.
So this should not be a problem.
You root only adb, you take the files and put them in a safe place.
You do whatever you want.
You restore the 2 files (while you're root)
You do a full wipe and a firmware recovery.
Thos should take it to a total unroot phone.
Am I right?

No, is not normal, it has to take around 8 minutes. But the times (several) that I flashed through EDL using Miflash tool you have not to see your ID but simply COM 10 for example or the port where is detected device, probably you have to go throw back your steps to sure that this first of all be fixed, otherwise no way to flash correctly. Remember that your device has to be detected like qualcomm-HSUSB-9008download or something similar.

You did reach EDL mode apparently, in unkocked devices you can get it through commands but in locked (like yours) the unique way is using testpoint method so it´s fine with it.
NO, it´s incorrect, your device must not be detected like Qualcomm Diagnostics but this is the exact name that has to appear: "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008", download drivers from here https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...bit-windows/&usg=AOvVaw1aDI5aquv8QiX3bzyxrZtp, then update them locating the path and then probably you need to restart pc, and try it again.
Edit: And don´t try to use "save user data" ever do a clean flash all.

NO, it´s incorrect, your device must not be detected like Qualcomm Diagnostics but this is the exact name that has to appear: "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008", download drivers from here https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...bit-windows/&usg=AOvVaw1aDI5aquv8QiX3bzyxrZtp, then update them locating the path and then probably you need to restart pc, and try it again.
Edit: And don´t try to use "save user data" ever do a clean flash all.

What about the picture that you uploaded, I don´t see nothing here or is edited?
and what about why I asked before about if it´s detected now?
Mostly unbrick a device is not a simple thing, you just have to refine the way that you are doing, double check how you are connecting with pc and pay attention if device is vibrating or blinking led, you have to put some effort on this and you could solve it. You tried to flash a wrong firmware on it not even with the same processor (jasmine) it´s normal that now your device is an abnormal state.

I downloaded two sakura roms, one v10 and the other v9, this image was v9, renamed it to 1, the other was in the successor post, it didn't work.
About connecting, every time I connect the usb cable to the computer it vibrates and the xiaomi logo appears.
Should I install any specific rom?

In Device Manager of PC you have to see that is detected like qualcomm-HS 9008qdloader and doesn´t have to vibrate nor appears no screen otherwise is not connecting well, you have to repeat the process: when you connect your device then just have to made a sound.

Your case is the same that wich I linked before, the user has a Sakura with a fake rom for Daisy and the member flashed a chinese rom, this solved the issue and has sense cause apparently the device comes from the chinese market and is not intended like a global one. In the post that I linked you can find also a link to some chinese roms that I provided for him in the past.
Just strange is that the member needed an authorized account and you don´t?

The vibration and xiaomi logo, if I'm not mistaken, 100% of the time appeared when entering EDL mode.

If you type fastboot oem unlock what happened?
I have a bricked one too.. you need a xiaomi special account to flash with the rom. With other apps with dos log you will se is that the "error" only adms users can flash... Even the old versions ddn work. Cant see all the post now but think the "rom link" is ok. Is just the flash software the problem. Some sites sell the account to flash 1 time. Like 13 dollar idkn

Question RM6/6Pro Unbrick Tool - EDL Flash / Switch from CN to EU

Hello guys,
I received the following unbrick tool from my supplier in Shenzhen - China and wanted to share it with you since I noticed that many people are desperate to fix their RM6 and swap it to EU.
The process is super easy:
1) Download & extract the following .zip
https://mega.nz/file/ntBSxDKa#h9vUPGoWVyqtyDYWYmSgz8bE1_vNimBMAqTp9csvv-w
2) Make sure all the drivers are installed correctly (Qualcomm, EDL etc...)
3) Open the MiTool application
4) in MiTool, select the folder images
5) Put your phone in EDL mode
6) Once connected, Click flash - the brushing process will start automatically.
7) Once done, force reset and Voilà!
There's an alternative as well: MultiportQLoader
I haven't tried it myself, feel free to try it and share the steps.
Im sorry if any details aren't clear, but I'm typing this while driving xD
Good luck and would appreciate a shout-out on insta @Out.Geeked ^^
THANK YOU SIR
To ask a dumb question, but is this only the 6 or for the pro as well?
Works for both
Thank you so much, it work after someone help me erase flash

Yeah I checked the model number against the box it came in and gave it a shot, now it shows the RM logo and then reboots to the bootloader lmao this phone legit hates me
*edit*
So I think either I'm doing something wrong or this phone is actually messed up. Checked the drivers, tried 2 other cables, all my USB ports and still all it does is briefly show the white "System Rebooting" screen and then the RM logo for about 20 seconds and then reboots to fastboot/bootloader.
MiFlash shows "couldn't find flash script" but otherwise looks like it goes through the reflash process completely but QLoader always fails with an error "Unknown chunk type cac2"
Does this unbrick method require the bl to be unlocked?
anyone lost their imei after doing this? hahahha
i did lost my imei, but manage to repair it but... it still doesnt detect mobile network idk what to do now lol

According to the file name, it's EU V3.10.
I thought we should apply the NA/Asia version.

[Guide] Restore Lost IMEIs / Repair Network or Radio Issues
I accidentally restored TWRP backup of another Zuk Z2 phone on my new pgone and in this process over-wrote the EFS partition. This left me with a phone having no IMEI, no mac for Wifi and Bluetooth. Effectively No Network on phone. Worried, I...
forum.xda-developers.com
this maybe work, havent test it out
Since we have the partition layout & the correct firehose, it should actually be a good practice by anyone wanting to play with their phone (BL unlock, root, dev, etc) to first dump the critical partitions.
That way, you can always restore. Example: EFS, misc, persist, etc.

Select the images folder and then hit flash.
Mine is alive again, no more problems.
I think I know why a lot of people have probably bricked their device after flash from CN to Global. If you do a local update, let the device REboot until the end. After the restart it uses the update.zip again. I think a lot of people did a factory reset immediately after the reboot (like me in Recovery) and the system can no longer find the update.zip.
Therefore, let the update run through, reboot until you are back in the system. Then you can do a factory reset.

OnePlus 8 Pro (EU) - Repair from scratch guide... SMT - QC Flash, IMEI repair, fingerprint...

AS LONG AS PHONE CAN BE TURNED ON - WHETHER IT IS RECOVERY, FASTBOOT, QUALCOMM CRASHDUMP OR SOMETHING SIMILAR YOUR DEVICE CAN BE FIXED...
WARNING:
Regarding QC MSM Flash tool - make sure you back up persist.img before flashing device otherwise you won't be able to recover fingerprint sensor...
Regarding QC SP IMEI Write tool - You can only use IMEI that is on the box...
Your data will be lost, obviously...
This guide is for EU devices (download links have EU firmware), but it is applicable for other as well as long as you have required firmware...
Required stuff:
Download from GDrive
Passwords:
IMEI TOOL: ustest
MSM TOOL: te123
1.) Make sure to back up EFS, if you don't you will lose ability to make or receive calls.
If you didn't backup EFS that's not problem, I found temp. solution... After doing MSM SMT clean installation your imei wil be 0 but you will be able to make calls. At this point you MUST BACK UP: mdm1m9kefs1, mdm1m9kefs2, mdm1m9kefs3 and mdm1m9kefsc...
After updating your IMEI and OS to latest version you will lose ability to make or receive calls but, you can than do:
fastboot flash mdm1m9kef
fastboot flash mdm1m9kef
fastboot flash mdm1m9kef
fastboot flash mdm1m9kefsc
fasboot flashing lock_critical
...and boom your device is now fixed!!!
1. A) Backing up persist.img DIFFICULTY: 3/5
Download and extract: MSM TOOL 10.5.4, open "MsmDownloadTool V4.0.exe" -> Other -> Next
We're just gonna flash your OS so do not use SMT mode yet (If you don't know what is SMT mode then just follow steps)
Click on TARGET and select EU, click start and wait for it to say "Waiting for device", now when your device is powered off, hold volume up and volume down button and connect it to the cable, MSM should now start flashing your OS
After it's completed (around 5 minutes) you will be able to boot into OS, go to developer options (after setting up device), go to developer options and enable "OEM Unlocking"... Now update your system using local files: UPDATE 10.5.5 on GDrive (extract it, you are gonna find OnePlus zip FullOTA and magisk boot.img) and reboot to fastboot after update, connect your phone to adb and do "fastboot flash boot <magisk.img - from gdrive>" now set up magisk.apk and make sure root is working, go back to adb on your computer and run these commands:
adb shell
su (there will be pop-up and you need to grant root access to shell)
adb shell dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist of=/tmp/persist.img
Now store that persist.img to your pc
1.B) If your device looks like this and you didn't back up persist.img you will have to play around because I don't know if you can get your fingerprint sensor back without it but if you do please let us know in the comments, you will need to flash using SMT mode...

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
To flash it via SMT, you need to open MSM V4.0 and click Verify, after you get MD5 Check... you need to click on SMT download mode
and now press SMT on top
then COM Setup and enable your ports. After you click start it will ask you for password: te123, and also you need to put your original storage size, now press volume up and down on your device and connect it to pc...
Your system will be flashed on chipset level...
2. Repair fingerprint sensor DIFFICULTY: 3/5
Follow steps on this video: Fingerprint Repair
But instead of holding finger on all test except BLACK RUBBER test, you need to hold it only when testing FLESH RUBBER, do not cover sensor with anything on other tests. And you should get red error saying: FAIL GF ERROR BAD POINT CLUSTER... and now you can proceed with copying data and engineermode to persist via root explorer (in GDrive) just like in the video...
3. Repair IMEI DIFFICULTY: 4/5
Download IMEI repair, open settings and input password: ustest, enable dual IMEI and write MEID as well... apply settings and connect your device,
go to dialer app and enter *#801# enable Diag,Adb and Serial, go to GDrive and download QC Important Driver.zip
Go to device manager and you should see your phone in COM/LPT section, IN2023 or something like that... There could be like two devices IN2023 and you must install this driver on both! Right click on it and select update driver, Browse computer>Let me pick...>Show All> Have disk and now go to qcser.inf_amd64 and select qcser.inf and click OK, from all the drivers from the list you need to select Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 90B6 and now go to IMEI write tool and click Write. Your IMEI should now be written... You can go back to *#801# and disable diag,adb serial and you just need to restart device to reload new IMEI

@vrabaci Can you specify the right Driver for the IMEI WRITE tool? There is no "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 90B6" , only "Qualcomm HS-USB MDM Diagnostics 90B6". "MDM" is missing from your post. Is that the right one?
I tried with this and IMEI WRITE tool say "Connecting to smart phone".... then Fails with timeout. It doesnt connect.

If you put your IMEI1/imei2 and MEID from the box it should not give any parity errors, also don't check save to access database and also I had IMEI 0 and MEID 0 and I could make calls so I don't think it's really required but I have no idea how that system works...

Question Phone stuck in a boot loop please help :(

Hello everyone good day.
Sadly my phone Samsung galaxy A22 has stumbled into a boot loop been happening for couple days it started when I put the phone on charge and heard it vibrating to which It was constantly rebooting over and over as soon as the Home Screen loads after a second it just reboots I tried to do a reset using power + volume down and no luck also tried wipe cache partion in the recover menu and repair apps but no luck tried searching YouTube for fixes and also called a phone repair shop and said it’s a tough one as I want to keep my data meaning I can’t do a factory reset as I have a lot of stuff I need on the phone so I am reaching out here as a last resort it would make my day if someone could help thanks.
Note: after many restarts the phone managed to come on a couple of times to which after entering my pin a pop up would happen saying “ serious software issue detected check for update “ if i click check the message goes away then it says android starting but fails to start up after 30 seconds to a minute it just re boots again I had some hope as it happened a few times it allowed me to put my pin in but on the android starting screen it would never get past and eventually reboot again I haven’t updated the phone for a while so is it also possible to update from download mode without losing my data or do I need some room for that??
Read I could try safe mode unfortunately that didn’t work either

I’ll make sure to give it a good read I appreciate that hopefully this can fix for good quick question before i proceed do I need enough storage for this to update because I remember it being almost full if that’s the case is this possible by inserting an SD card without losing data? Just wanted to check before I proceed as my storage was close to being full

It shouldn't need storage, it rewrites the system files and does not just "adds" them, so it should be at max 1-5 hundred MB bigger

Oh also to check the Country from which your phone is (you need to select that when downloading firmware) you can apparently use recovery mode, go into recovery mode (volume up + power while being plugged into a pc) and check if it says something with CSC-Code on the bottom, the 3-digit code after that is the Country Code which you will need to download.

I seen a video of someone using Odin once done there phone rebooted and showed a pop up saying updating apps etc along those lines but for me it just rebooted after Odin showed pass then bootloop again and a menu saying phone couldn’t start properly and get the same message “ serious software issue check for update “

Is that wipe cache partion? If so sadly not work for me and repair apps no fix but upon some research I’ve read it’s possible the storage can cause a bootloop also? Not sure if true but my phone was literally almost full as unfortunately didn’t make some room in time it seems this is most likely the reason as before bootloop I never installed any updates or did anything just simply put the phone on charge then it bootloop I’ve read that because there is almost no storage the phone just can’t boot up properly? No idea tbh but seems most reasonable as of now :/

Also whilst my phone was bootlooping I got a menu similar to recovery menu saying android failed and a few options I believe was
1) try again
2) wipe app data
3) power off
Also a message saying if you don’t want to lose any data then it should be taken to a technician however one of the places I called said there is not much they can do as I wanna keep my data :/
Does it say wipe all data or wipe app data?

Wipe app data if I remember right it said about wiping the data of apps and configuration so this has also lead me to thinking it could be an internal storage also no idea as phone says there is a serious software issue it’s been a nightmare hopefully fix eventually just worried about my data I believe wipe app data will keep photos and videos safe but it would log out all my emails and wipe all my apps also? :/

Yeah it will delete all app data, so for example your google login or email login, it should keep your photos tho as that is not app data

Hmm do you think this is pretty much the last resort for me to try if I can keep pics and videos I guess that’s a bonus just would have to pray it does let me boot my phone up and that I can regain access to emails and other stuff via logins not all wrote down so I guess at this point with nothing I’ve tried working seems one of the last options unless there is other ways to extract data whilst phone is in bootloop but haven’t found many also
Did you setup any 2FA Authenticator apps that aren't synced with a cloud? That would be pretty dumb and you probably won't be able to login except you saved the backup codes. But otherwise if it really only deletes app data it should be fine, and as long as you have access to your email you should be able to reset all your passwords.
Do you can share your phone recovery mode picture with download mode
