Yes, go to DOOGEE Y6 Max - development & support thread by Alberto96. The first page has the method for NVRAM.

https://xdaforums.com/android/general/doogee-y6-max-development-support-t3509692

Regarding Chamelephon you must enable first developer settings to recover the IMEI. Read here the advice of VladJocker.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fleebleflam:
I did think the Chamelephon app wasn't worth using, i think i may have even tried it in the past, but thanks anyway.

And thank you very much for this invaluable info regarding the nvram folder, it really is very much appreciated.

Thank you..?

Unfortunately, my Casio GZOne Commando was bricked while I upgrade rom for it. My computer recognizes it as a com port. This comport was name is Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 Mode. Please, some one can help me rescuse my phone. Please tell me step by step instructions to unbrick the phone :crying:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saaji55:
I unfortunately have almost the same problem, I've been looking for a solution, in general; Qpst app does recognize the com port, and you can flash a set of required files such as the firefighter /MCC/XML (not sure of the names), you can find them on the gethub website.

For me, I did so, but got to nowhere except the c811 is now recognized by Windows as g'zone!

Please do update me on what happened with your phone.

Good luck
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thaihoangduylinh:
The Drive, Thank you so much, it 's working. My phone is work normally. Now I want to backup my image phone to restore when my phone was bricked by Qualcomm Qloader 9008, but my computer is recognize it as Gz'One Commando 4G LTE virtual serial port, not HSUSB qloader. What should I do?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDrive:
To backup eMMC full image from the WORKING device you SHOULDN'T get it into the QDLoader 9008 mode nor flash loaders!!!

Loaders flashing will bring you into the QHSUSB_DLOAD 9006 but It WILL BREAK your GPT so you'll be forced to rebuild it to boot normally later!!! I don't know the name device is detected by the PC because I've never had this device in my hands, but I've explored it's FW's and code and found the way to recover it in many aspects including loader flashing (thanks go to nugiedha from Android Forums) IMEI/MAC/S/N patching (look in the 4pda topic), etc. The QDLoader mode has PID=9008, DLOAD mode has PID=9006. Diags port of the working device usually has PID=9025. USB VID should be 05C6 or may be customized by the device's OEM. There are decades of another PID's for the virtual Qualcomm chipset devices (PID's, e.g. Modem, RMNet, GPS, Mass Storage, MTP, etc)

To get eMMC dump from the WORKING device you should use QPST.

Configure QPST to make it find device's Diags COM port (Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 9025). There are decades of the screened manuals on how to setup and work with QPST around. Then run QPST eMMC Download util (Windows start menu). Then select your found phone on some port and click 'Switch device to DLOAD' button. That's all! Device should switch to the QHSUSB_DLOAD 9006 mode in a few seconds. You should note the new mass storage device found in your Windows device manager. Please avoid occasionally click OK on the any of the device initialization requests Windows will bring to the screen (otherwise you'll damage your FW!). Then get some HDD low level managing tool and backup/restore any partitions/whole image from/to the device. HDD Raw Copy Tool is found good and reliable one for the whole disk image operations. There is also eMMC Raw Tool which is known to useful to backup/restore particular partitions, but I've found it's not reliable for some reasons. Sometimes it doesn't see any eMMC devices (it has too strong restrictions on the accepted USB medias trying to avoid non-eMMC devices) , sometimes it's known to some kind broken FW (many reports but I don't know whether it the tool's or user's failure). You can use DMDE/R-Studio/others professional data recovery utils to manage (recover) any data on the eMMC in the 9006 mode.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDrive:
GPT images for Casio G'zOne Commando C811 (US Verizon) and Casio CA-201L (Korean) are slightly different.

Compare partition tables below. Most important difference is Modem FW partition size is 100MB for C811 vs 64MB for CA-201L. Modem FW partition is the first one so all the following partitions have the different sector offsets that is important for the successful recovery targets. Also there is ExtRes partition at the end of the C811 eMMC. It contains about a 200MB of the useless Verizon/Commando promotion videos so you can simply omit it when porting FW between devices (simply format it to the ext4 and use as a small 'secret' storage. :))

Hi Ive been trying to follow your instructions but Im completely lost. Casio gz c811 basically doing the encryption unsuccessful loop. And when I get to recovery the only appears is the dead android dude with no options
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDrive:
Described unbrick procedure was successfully performed by many people and should work unless hardware is OK. There are many cases, not only with this device, when eMMC catches bad blocks and/or fully blocks or hangs due to the internal structures damages (particularily translation tables like it often occures to the USB flash drives). There is no way to fix it mostly because eMMC and SD cards require professional equipement to deal with low level firmware initialization and capacity format. Factory utilities do not leak, like occures with UFD, because almost no one can execute them without a special factory card readers. There are the professional utils for the onboard eMMC management including some eMMC internal FW interaction like ATF-box. But in most cases internal eMMC failures lead to the expensive eMMC replacement (reballing) of the whole device drop.

If you suspect your eMMC have the hardware faiilures you should get you phone to the 9006 DL mode and when it will expose eMMC contents to the PC as a mass storage device try to test capacity for readability. At first make a full image for test and backup. If there will be no read errors, you can test device for write performance.

You have not described your actions to fix the problem and any results you got. If the described architecture and recovery procedures are too complicated for you you can ask some advanced friend to help you on site using provided instructions and discussions in other forums I've pointed to.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDrive:
Sampson78, congrats with your first personal unbricking experience! Knowledge is power and it couldn't be given 'easy'. You've shown your strong intention and got result!

Added native Windows driver from 4pda, you mentioned above.

На 4pda, конечно, читайте. Там подробнее все расписано, больше аспектов раскрыто, обсуждение куда шире и плодотворнее, еще и на русском. В частности там раскрыта структура хранения данных модема и методы работы, есть люди, которые девайс постоянно эксплуатируют и могут помочь (напомню у меня его никогда и не было). Однако, того, что здесь успел дать, достаточно чтобы кирпич поднять, если он аппаратно исправен. Вполне достаточно, еще и подробно очень. Затруднения лишь в том, что много незнакомой инфы для новичка и вся сразу, в один момент, а не как в школе, когда новое добавляют по чуть чуть. Понимание делает процедуру не то что, простой, но куда проще и понятнее. Все это тоже люди делали и для людей, там все разумно и понятно, хотя не всегда оптимально. Другое дело, что "власти скрывают" и втирают примитивные идиотские методы работы, дающие лишь малую долю контроля, хотя и никак не более простые или понятные. Аналогично работают почти все аппараты на Квалкомм, но везде свои нюансы, иногда очень значимые.

Hi good people! thanks in advance, I had a problem for about a month now where my phone (Note2) used to take about 15 min to boot, after trying many solutions, I read somewhere to delete ODEX files and after trying that in many ways I went to system/apps and deleted ODEX files there with Root Explorer which turned out to be a biiig mistake, it just stucks at the Samsung Logo for a few seconds before it starts again (only the logo, the phone doesn't reboot) and it stays like that forever. I'm in hell right now, I have some files I don't want to lose so I was afraid of factory reseting but after I was told that it won't delete them, I did but that didn't solve anything, I can't access download mode, I can access recovery mode however (not custom) I tried flashing a custom ROM but I just get "E: failed to verify whole-file signature" please help !

Rooting will trip Knox. No, there's no "temporary root" that is remotely stable. You may be able to roll back to 5.1.1 via ODIN but it's not surefire. And yes, the OTA relocks the bootloader. I would not think anyone would expend effort to unlock it at this point.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatguynaveed:
Hey guys, as the title states, I'm struggling to install a custom ROM on my Nexus 5X, and I was hoping you guys could read what I did and tell me where I'm going wrong. This is my first time rooting via fastboot commands as whenever I try to root via NRT, SuperSU doesn't flash.

I've had a few failed attempts where my phone has been stuck in bootloop and I've flashed stock using Nexus Root Toolkit. I'll list what I do when trying to root, and if you could tell me where I'm going wrong, that'd be brilliant.

- My first step was to install stock (build number: MTC19T) via NRT

- Connect to the device via fastboot

- Bootloader is already unlocked so I don't bother with that

- Download SuperSU 2.74 in the phone

- Flash over a modified boot.img (found one for my build number on XDA by Tigerstown) via the fastboot commands

***I did this because when I tried to install the SuperSU zip from TWRP 3.0.2, my phone would reboot halfway through the flash and not root***

- Flash over the custom recovery (TWRP 3.0.2 for bullhead)

- Enter recovery from the bootloader

- Install SuperSU via TWRP

- Reboot the phone

- Check if I have root via a Root Checker app in the Play Store

***This part usually goes fine, I've tried it without the boot.img, but TWRP keeps rebooting the system when I try flashing SuperSU***

- Once my phone is rooted, I download Dirty Unicorns 6.0.1 and Banks Dynamic GApps to my phone (I've got these 2 downloaded to my laptop and I just transfer them over to my phone)

- I go back into recovery, I wipe the system (but not internal storage)

- Go to install in TWRP and try to install DU 6.0.1

***My problem here is that TWRP reboots halfway through the installation. I can't flash GApps after the ROM. My phone takes a while to boot up, but when it does, I have DU 6.0.1 even though the installation in TWRP didn't finish***

- I then go back into recovery to install GApps, but the same thing happens to TWRP, it freezes for a second and then reboots my phone.

***However, unlike DU, my GApps won't install. I've tried different a GApps package (Opengapps) but TWRP does the same thing every time***

To summarize, after I root and flash my ROM, I'm left with DU with no GApps. The issue I seem to be having is with TWRP not flashing GApps and I've tried a different version of it but the same thing ends up happening, it freezes for a second and then reboots my phone. I've also tried using SuperSU 2.65 but the same thing happens.

I know this is a long read, but any help would be seriously appreciated!
