[/COLOR [MENTION=4864296]darkspr1te[/MENTION] gone through this topic a few times , but dont seem to find the method of creating 8974_msimage.mbn , i have all dependent files including Partition_GPT.bin needed .

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 PM ----------

Looks like my question is answered , we dont have access to the files to create the mbn . [MENTION=4864296]darkspr1te[/MENTION] if I uploaded all dependent files would it be possible for you to create this ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
Magic of google gave me this

8974 Images-xmls-etc

this folder contain a few files that *MAY* work, i dont have the device so I cannot be sure

Also from the hangout of google searches

More 8974 files-mbn-hex

Also others who have used miflash as well.

MiFlash instructions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ONYXis:
I tried all possible combinations of files from z5s, mi3, k910, k920, unknown devices and qpst, miflash, msm8974downloader - no results.

So I think that msimage8974 unsuitable from other phones. at least in my case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ONYXis:
seems to be true.

OK. Where is fu proper MPRG8974.hex or mbn? )
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
Please post the partial working HEX for me, I will stick into my IDA and have a look at it's code base,

We have to assume also that we may need a signed hex, We know the cpu has fuses that when blown will require a signed hex, this could be any hex for the device but must have the signature from LG.

another suggestion is haunt gsm forums, a few signed hex's have shown up there in leaked format and in fact some of these jtag/repair boxes use signed hex's , there is even one that was based on my original brickfix work floating around lol.

due to no longer having a device we never updated qdload.pl for newer protocols and functions and sadly no one has picked up the baton, just getting people to post .hex/.mbn files that have worked for their device has been hard.

the .mbn file is also under the same signing rules as the hex file, it's code is loaded in the same way as your sbl1/sdi so also has to go through the same checks, we have thought about possibly using existing sbl1/sdi files and writing them instead of the .mbn sdcard loader, the protocol does support it and e:v:a has posted some work on the checksums, headers etc of these files and soulshadow and myself started a thread on documenting this, sadly with no qcom device to work with it's a little hard.

For peoples understanding i wanted to share this:-

the qdload protocol used to upload the hex file is a cut down version of the Sahara protocol, so function like load to memory and execute are there but emmc access is not.

once the hex is loaded you get a expanded version of the protocol.

programs like miflash skip the sdcard/.mbn function and write the required bootloaders directly, even though it needs the .mbn , we may be able to use this to our advantage by writing only the damaged parts back uing the devices original and *maybe signed* files, food for thought.

Hi,

anybody has 8074 hex and mbn (its a snapdragon 800 without modem, for a Kindle Fire HDX)

Thanks,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] WojtasXda:
Hello everyone ! :)

I need help, for me this is a new chapter although QPST use for a long time. Previously, I used ready-made sets of files and packages to flash my custom ROMs (Old times , Toshiba TG01) . I'm currently using eMMC Software Download to flash Huawei W1. QPST was very useful to create a Custom ROM Windows Phone 8 :)

What do I need ??

I have Lumia 1520 introduced in the Download mode.

I found MPRG8974.hex and 8974_msimage.mbn here on the forum and on other websites.

I created an xml file sahara

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<sahara_config>
<images>
<image image_id="13" image_path="MPRG8974" programmer="true" />
</images>
</sahara_config>

file rawprogram0.xml is empty

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<data>
</data>

I am interested in putting phone in mass storage mode. When I get access to the memory I'll be home !! :)

I have ROM in VHD format. This is almost as eMMC memory dump (missing only one partition which is a replaced by zeros)

(now i send this file and winhex for server)

@E:V:A, @darkspr1te @ONYXis @Kryptonit and other best guys you could try to create such files? I am a beginner in this matter.

Your help will allow me to repair my phone and create a custom rom for the hundreds of other people.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ONYXis:
I already wrote about it - to put in mass storage you do not need xml's, 2 files - flash programmer (MPRG8974.mbn(hex)) and boot image (8974_msimage.mbn) is enough. XML's used with device that already in emmc storage mode.

And I pretty sure that 8974_msimage.mbn is totally unique for each device. You must find suitable one.

and btw in your sahara.xml you must write image_path="MPRG8974.hex"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] WojtasXda:
Thanks for fast answer :)

If i have full emmc DUMP, i can create a msimage or mprg ??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ONYXis:
I don't know really.

MPRG you cannot create for sure. About generate msimage you can read here http://blog.csdn.net/su_ky/article/details/7773273 (chinese) and here http://hardbrickrecovery.wordpress.com/2014/02/04/hbr자료-제작-가이드-ver2-1/ (korean) (use translator). But it is doesn't work for me. Maybe you'll have better luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] WojtasXda:
I admit that it is difficult for me. I found something info how to create MPRG and msimage file but My phone turn on only in download mode, my phone have WP8 not android.

From what I see two files are created from the device memory. I compared eMMC dump and mprg/msimage from Huawei w1. Everything looks very similar, but do not know how it is created.

It would be nice if someone with more knowledge took voice here

APQ8064T Files

Hi All,

Firstly I would like to thank darkspr1te and others involved on this great work :)

I have a bricked HTC One with Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 mode. Under Linux it shows as qualcomm usb modem converter.

Reading tons of other pages and all the threads within this discussion, I have managed to figure out that my phone is APQ8064T. Now I need appropriate .hex and .mbn files but I can't find these files anywhere!!! The files for 8064 are available everywhere. I am not sure if I can use these...

Also as the same SoC is shared by the following devices, but the files are still not found:

HTC One Max

Hello

Hello

Is that compatible SHV-E120S. i think my phone is hard bricked. My phone won't turn on download, recovery and any mode. Plugged in computer QHSUSB_DLOAD. I need EHV-E120S-s debrick image file. Please help me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
I cant say for 100% yes as your device is in a unknown state to me, how ever i was able to use loader from S/K devices on my phone but things like baseband not working , bootloops , it would not be 100%, i never dug further into that but am sure i could figured something out, i dont have the device any more so i cant test.

I have seen 120s loaders out there, you only need aboot,sb1/2/3 to bring the device back, i suggest if you do try this backup when you are in sdcard mode, that is half way through the brickfix , when the device switches from qdload to looking like a sdcard, you then use dd=if/dev/sd? , search this thread and my original debrick of shv device. If you dont take this backup and you trash your efs then you screwed.

Good luck. Oh, you can get into sdcard mode with out the 120s bootloader, you just need the .mbn and .hex file.

If you also have a intact first partition , the 100mb lead8ng drive thats invisible once the device boots has the crc figures for each bootloader file, we can use that to find out which file is damaged.

Again, if you skip the backup or play before doing backup you can kill the device.

Hi darksprite, could you guide me on how to get/extract these files(pit file, partition0.mbn etc.)from same type of device.? Give me the linux commands also.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
Look at my signature for "documentation into debricking " link, all the information is there, the only file i dont cover is the .xml for qpst .

pit file comes from either a backup created from the dead device (see my link for examples ) or from another device or remade in pit magic using info from other users

partition0.mbn is either created from a backup, manually (very hard, not for noobs or another who does not understand parition tables)

hex files come from either the manufacturer ( in the case of signed hex ) or from the net where someone has posted it.

the additional .mbn files like sbl1/2/3 come from a backup or from another device.

in most cases you will only be missing the .mbn loaders (sbl1/2/3 etc) and the parition0.mbn, all the others can be recreated from the device once you have sdcard mode working

see also Partition table info by E:V:A for many examples and similar setups

e980 (APQ8064T) - any chance?

Could someone help with APQ8064T hard bricked device (e980) please? I have one bricked and another fully operational phone, so all information needed can be extracted from the working phone.

All possible HEX files I found could not help me to put the device into SDCARD mode. I started thinking that digging into Qualcomm chip specs for a way to boot the device from external SD-card would be more productive...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
All modern Qcom can in someway boot sd-card , it's controlled via either resistors on gpio pins, 'BOOT_CFG', or set in the chip via q-fuse which once set so far cannot be reset.

My first suggestion BEFORE WRITING anything to the bricked device is document the un-bricked device, part of writing this information is giving your brain a moment to understand it.

we have a Grand partition table section where users have posted the partition layout required by many devices, you should read this thread to understand the required files for creating and transferring a backup of the partition table. tools are posted there that can assist in gathering this information.

Linux is not a 100% requirement but is suggested.

in some cases its possible to write copies of the required bootloaders to a sd-card and boot the device that way , BUT, as always there is a big but, if the BOOT_CFG gpio is set to emmc -> fail to PBL or if it's set via the qfuse then only fixing the emmc or booting via the PBL will you fix the device.

Adam outler did a great thread on the unbrick-able mod and bootloaders to which some of my work followed also you must read those.

What files do you have?, what have you tried?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yakovpol:
Many many thanks for the helping hand!

Here's partition info. It was partially collected even before I bricked the device, when I installed 16GB image from KDZ of a model from another country. Later I used command line tools to change layout to have full size for userdata. Later after unsuccessful attempts to write back stock TOT image for AT&T devices (from Download Mode) I decided to sniff USB traffic and saw that E988 model is being reported from the phone. With strings I found that misc and sdl3 contain E988 word. I replaced misc with the contents of /dev/zero, it did not help, and I restored it from the backup of the initial installation. I searched a bit for info about sdl partitions and found nothing, bad for me. I made it's backup and zeroed sdl3 and received a brick. But now after long reading I know and understand much more :)

Linux is my work/home OS for years, but Windows is available under KVM or at work if needed.

I have everything (I think) needed for full restore, full backup of userdata, EFS, etc.., contents of the TOT file as well. I found two different files MPRG8064.hex in Internet, both did not work. The problem is to write to the emmc something. sudo perl qdload.pl -pfile MPRG8064.hex -lfile apq8064.mbn -lreset simply reports that Failed to get response. execute failed

BTW, could you please help with the link to the info from Adam Outler which may help on digging into booting from external SD-card? Thank you again!
