Z2 plus dead completely - Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers

It was working fine till the failed OTA update.
After a failed OTA update the phone is dead completely.
Unable to boot, or to recovery or to bootloader etc
Attempted QFIL and even that is not working.
A tiny white light is on but nothing else.
Did anyone recover the phone from this problem?
Or is the phone gone forever?

try to disconnect the battery, then plug again and try qfil

Hi, Can you try pressing Power button for long till the phone vibrates

Keep the Power button pressed down for a good 30-40 seconds or until u feel a little vibration.

QFIL recognises the phone as Qualcom HS-USB Diagnostics 900E (Com3).
Is this correct?
I downloaded this Lenovo_ZUK_Z2_Plus_Indian_Firmware_V2.5.104_ST_by_Annabathina file?
In Qfil, i chose flat build and then only the above folder is shown and its shows two files with .elf extension as below.
prog_emmc_firehose_8996_ddr & prog_emmc_firehose_8996_lite
Which one should i use? Howlong the process goes? I tried both and i don't see any changes even after 15 minutes?
Is there a guide available?
Any links if possible?
Thanks

Plenty of guides if you Google it. Your phone is NOT dead and can be recovered but you'll lose your data after a qfil. Zuk z2 is pretty much impossible to brick

This is simple to solve, make a deepflash cable to enter in edl mode.

Some Help Please?

Ok, so this all started way way way back when I tried to update twrp (maybe back in august?) and well, after doing so there was no recovery and trying to boot it gave me a secure boot certificate error. Fast forward to today. I follow a guide located around here, flashed the files needed through linux and the phone seemed to be taking them. Well... now it won't turn on at all. Hooking it up in windows shows no sign of life, the phone isn't charging and just no general response from it. Any suggestions?
If its any help it was on a lollipop rom when all of this started.
I think you are stuck on qdloader 9008 mode connect your phone to your windows pc then hold the power button to see any response
No response from the phone. Just a nice black screen
NO i ment is that try connect the phone to the pc open device manager and hold the power and vol up buttons of course the phone wont turn on if it is in hard bricked state but it will atleast show its emergency download state on your device manager

lenovo P1 totally bricked

I was trying to use QFIL to update the phone and get rid of chinese characters,and now my phone is completely blank with no sounds or vibration.The computer still connects to the phone in QFIL but doesnt show as a device on the computer.
Any help in fairly simple language would be great.

Oneplus 3 just died out of no where

So i was using my phone and decided to restart it after updating my adaway files but my phone never turned back on. The two press the power button screens did not show up either. I tried to uses the MSMdownload tool since i thought my phone was somehow bricked but that didnt work either, it just kept restarting the download process after everything was completed. my computer makes a sound when its connected and it connects correctly as a quallcomm 9008 device but even after all this nothing is working. has anyone experienced something like this or does anyone have any advice?
did you try to long press both power button and vol up ...you should feel a vibration...
maybe it's not turned of maybe it's error causing the screen to be off... also is there any heat?
Which method of the unbrick tool did you use? First or second? If the first, then maybe you should give the second also a try.

I've tried everything and I used th me second method yet nothing happened. I can see my phone get recognized by the computer and get listed on the MSN device list yet nothing happens after it finishes the process. After the green line shows up telling me that it's completed everything the process restarts writhing a few minutes unless I unplug it. No vibration no nothing the phone just died on me after I restarted it .
Try doing MSM on a different PC with all drivers installed , hope it helps
Try to repeat flashing again, there is no other way. Use method 2only. Extract tool again and try flash.
When I was used Xperia Z1, I bricked my phone with a soft brick. So I installed driver in my PC and flash Kernel though FASTBOOT(ADB) either it's not show Device in my PC (I show just "Unknown Device").
After that my phone can connect to my PC again (Now It shown C9303 or something that meant it know it's a phone).
So I can flash by Flashtools again. Soft brick is not scary as Hard brick, you'll find some way to bring it back easily.
Hope this help!
PS. Bricked Phone is WEAK in Battery, always connect it with charger.

Hard bricked...Need a solution :(

Hello,I recently flash a wrong file and now my device is straight up dead no logo nothing the led blinks for a mini second and turns off I tried using qfil and mi flash but it was getting detected as 900e port and wasn't even detected on mi flash I tried updating drivers and got it to 9008 but still it would get stuck forever when I hit download asap in qfil or would show some sahara port error and still no detection on mi flash even in 9008 mode I tried over 50+ times using the button combinations to get it to 9008 mode but every time it would be 900e any solution other than deep flash as I have just one type c cable and I may screw up
Press volume up key for 15 seconds, then press power button & insert usb (within a second) to pc..it will get it to edl mode..
probably your only way out is deep flashing, i've been through this
any solution for this ? i'm suffering the same

Can you try to switch to download mode by press&hold VOL+ while inserting the USB cable (connected to PC). Phone needs to be off while doing so.

thanks for your reply
What happens if you press&hold VOL- (furing the whole procedure) push the power button until the phone vibrates, release the button und press&hold the power button?

I don't know where to ask so I'm gonna try here. My G820N is stuck on Android 10 beta. Whenever I flash an official kdz, it only allows for emergency calls. Can't do anything. Any help would be appreciated

Try entering download mode with phone disconnected from USB cable.
Also try to see if it gets recognized by LG-UP or by LG Bridge. These 2 softwares don't need download mode to be able to flash, just the phone to be recognized on some PORT.
Try also factory reset hard menu. Also try switching between Slot A and Slot B. There is also this backup method. Phone is not dead on one of those slots.
If nothing works (but slot a slot b should 100% work) , wait for the firehose, it's just around the corner. That will restore the phone back 100%.
For more info search v50thinq on telegram app. :good:
I can t get to download as it freezes and without the USB cable it doesn't even try and enter. I appreciate the recommendations. I was thinking of the a/b seit hbut without the use of fastboot I am at a loss of how to switch between the two as I thought the system chose and the switch happened upon rebooting once a system had been selected ie as in turning the unit off after loading the os set a flag to go to the opposite system upon completing the inftframs and boot sequence.

So, if the device, as you say, lost power during an update like that, then almost assuredly you have at least one, if not numerous corrupted partitions.
And, it's specific partitions on the device that allow it to enter download mode. One of these most know about or have heard of is the laf partition. But other have to be there also for it to work, I don't remember exactly what the others off the top of my head, but that info is easily found.
The key thing you need (or any others commenting same prob), is to be able to enter EDL mode and have qfil installed and recognizing the device. If you can get that far, it would be easy to find the correct partitions you could flash with qfil and then immediately go from qfil to download mode.
Many many people have done this. Just get qfil set up (see guides section) and get the device recognized. that takes some effort but it's def doable.
