What I would suggest you is to use CWM Recovery. Also be sure to do a full wipe before, where I don't think that this was the problem here

Or TWRP 2.8 as the older version hadn't any issues with any rom (for me at least ))))

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brickedsmh:
I managed to hard-bricked my Nexus 6P and now my phone won't turn on at all. I already tried everything to make sure it's not a soft-brick so that doesn't have to be asked.

I found this article: wwwDOTdroidsavvyDOTcom/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/ (unfortunately I can't post links so please replace the DOT with .) stating that I can unbrick it by using some tools. Unfortunately I need a full eMMc backup from someone with a factory-resetted Nexus 6p.

I wanted to ask if someone can do this huge favor and upload a backup of their eMMc somewhere. I would be very thankful for that!

To do so, it has to be a rooted factory-resetted Nexus 6P (although you can try without a factory-reset). These commands have to be entered:

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/storage/emulated/0/backup.img bs=512 count=30535646

and then the file has to be uploaded somewhere.

I would very appreciate it if someone does this or suggests something different. Thanks in advance!

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wiltron:
Custom Recovery OK?

The only problem I'm forseeing is that my unique data in my EFS partition may then be public - like my IMEI, Serial Number, etc.

How can you confirm such data won't be in this factory image?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tr4nqui1i7y:
You can wipe your efs partition and it will restore itself properly. You don't need a backup. If you can't get to fastboot/recovery then you won't be able to do this.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jammol:

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tr4nqui1i7y:

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fe Mike:
I'm running command now. it will probably take a bit. will keep you posted.

How do you know your backups were corrupted? I only ask because if I manage to upload the file I wouldn't want to upload a corrupt file to anyone.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tr4nqui1i7y:

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fe Mike:
I did do a wipe and reflashed factory images the second time but did turn on device to install supersu app before I realized I could just do it through adb shell because I did flash supersu. So there is a google account linked to it. I changed my password so not sure if that will be an issue. I'm assuming as soon as your up and running you'll wipe and restore your stuff. I didn't wipe the efs though. My backup was on MTC20F and recovery twrp-3-0-2.2.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fe Mike:
it's crazy how many Nexus phones are bricked. just in the general forum alone. this is my first Nexus and thought they couldn't brick unless you really tried. Did yours brick with that whole twrp-3-0-2.1 and nougat fiasco?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vacaloca:
While the article that the OP mentioned has the general idea, anyone attempting this should verify the partition structure of the Nexus 6P against what the scripts are doing:

https://gist.github.com/zhuowei/79b6fbcd9ba9f1726163

Just an FYI. Also compressing the backup should make a huge difference in file size, if another upload is done in the future. :)

Also, the contents of /persist will be restored with such a backup... for more details see:

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/help/formatted-nexus-6p-persist-partition-t3453035

There are at least 2 things unique to each phone in that partition:

1) sensor calibration file (which I describe how re-create in the post above)

2) speaker calibration file (which would be tricky to adjust perfectly, except by a trial and error process)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tr4nqui1i7y:
Thanks for the info!

Check in on progress in this thread - here

The goal is to get a raw operator rom for our device. That would include nothing other than necessary boot info for our devices.

You'd still have to flash-all the fastboot files to boot.

This is just to get corrupt eMMC back on track.

In the process of making our own programmer file using our partition information.

Internal data isn't your OS. Maybe return your device to stick via factory image instead of installing custom ROM over custom ROM without really knowing enough about what you are doing by reading first.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fe Mike:
I believe the backup I made was for something to do with Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 which is above my knowledge. It is not a typical backup like you would make in twrp. Plus I think you can't use this with twrp. I would download the factory Image from google and fastboot flash your device back to stock. Also the reason the file is so big is because it's an entire backup of the emmc, meaning every partition on the phone.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fapste:
Did you fix your problem? Is the bootlooping problem roaming around here related to TWRP or flashing wrong image/rom files? Have you pinpoint the probable cause? Have you upgraded to 7.1.1 stable?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tr4nqui1i7y:
Mine was totally unique. I was building a ROM. Most other peoples brick was from corrupt EFS partition. That is the most common I was seeing when I was active. I am staying on 6.0.1 until 7+ makes its way into the performance margin I'm looking for.

A lot of people weren't reading properly, or downgrading improperly. The only time a nexus 6p is fully hard bricked is when you hold power and the notification light wont even come on. Even after the plugging and unplugging steps.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fapste:
What do you mean by performance margins on 7.1.1? Isn't it smoother then 6.0.1?

I'm on 6.0.1 pure Nexus, elemental x kernel and TWRP 3.0.2-0, how can I backup my EFS partiton? Whats the benefit of backing it up?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tr4nqui1i7y:
There's no need to back up efs on our device. If you erase the efs then it will correct itself upon boot. There are adb commands floating around on this forum if anyone needs them. I'm not going to link to them and explain how to use them again though. It always seems to end up being a several page ordeal.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fapste:
Yes I have seen those commands. I'm just curious about the purpose of EFS partiton. I have a nexus 5 laying around and the SIM/network doesn't work on it. It just says NO SERVICE. I'm thinking may be if it's related to EFS, i might be able to revive my Nexus 5 and keep my 6p as a daily driver

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcferrin90:
I quoted you to get a notification to you. I soft bricked my Nexus 6P while trying to flash an engineering modem to the device. The engineering modem would give me the ability to control which RF band my device was using. I did this from terminal using the DD command. I actually created an image of my modem using DD and then overwrote it. Upon reboot my phone does not start in any usable mode. I get only a black screen, no illumination. When I plug my phone into my computer I get the sound that a device was connected. When I unplug my phone I get a sound that a device was disconnected. When I opened windows device manager, when plugging in my phone the only device change is that COM4 shows up under ports. when I unplug COM4 goes away. While plugged in, I type ADB DEVICES and FASTBOOT DEVICES and no devices display. I long press power button and hear bah bong, then bong bah from device reboot. So I try long press power then volume down. No go. I let the phone go dead and when I plug it into my computer I get flashing red LED in top left corner. After about 15 minutes the red LED goes off and on computer I hear device connected. I tried Wugfresh NRT and nothing worked. I followed prompts to uninstall android drivers, reboot and reinstall drivers. Now I get no COM4 but still hear device connected sound. Phone seems like what Samsung phones would do when needing recovery via Odin flash.

This is not my first rodeo. I've been flashing phones since the HTC EVO 4G. This Huawei Nexus 6P has probably been the worst phone to screw with. I'm back to using a Nexus 6 which darn near impossible to screw up. So I'm up for experimenting with the 6P if you have any ideas. I'll repeat, the device does not show up in fastboot or adb.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tr4nqui1i7y:
Best of luck. I had a device in the same condition, from different means. I ended up having to give up on it. I found a site full of broken English that claimed to have users that could fix any Qualcomm device, that was untrue. There is no public tool for our device. Other than fastboot, unfortunately. Without doing hardware modifications to flash eMMC or replace and flash eMMC, you might be suck in that condition. You could try to RMA, but being that you flashed a developer radio it would be up to the rep you reach if they want to help or not.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcferrin90:
Thus far after installing the QCOM drivers, now I get Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM6) when I plug in my phone. I don't see partitions using the Minitool app. I see where you were.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcferrin90:
Just wanted to update you. First do you still have your bricked 6P? Up for some experimentation? I bought another 6P 32GB off Swappa for pretty cheap as it was scratched. Really hated to pop the bootloader cherry because I needed root. So I have a working device that I just made a backup.img file from. There are programs floating around from QualComm to cure our problem but we need files for our specific Snapdragon 810 processor. I think I read that with a working device and image that there are ways to mount the image and create the necessary files to rebuild the fastboot and bootloader partitions. This gets you to fastboot to where you can then run flash-all.bat and restore a complete factory ROM to the device. There is a program also written by QC for Linux that talks to the bricked device as long as it boots into download mode aka 9008 mode. There are several devices on XDA that have had similar problems and those tools are documented very well. So all hope is not gone, just need an XML file and emergency image files (8994) that boots the device to 9006 partition mode, where one can use the DD command in Linux to rebuild the partirions and move forward.

Stock rooted is exactly what it says it is, it is a stock ROM with root. You have to have TWRP to flash a ROM to begin with, which means you have to unlock the bootloader.

Thanks for the reply. Now i have already flashed the marshmallow stock in my phone. I had kitkat 4.4.4 rooted rom and i lost the root.

There are apps to have full control over what runs at boot. I've never used them, but probably would work.

Hi,

So I was speaking with Samsung regarding the Dual Sim feature on UK Smartphones, and they said.

"The facility is there but the current UK software does not support this at present."

That would indicate that it's the UK firmware software, does anyone have a link to a firmware or can advise which firmware's support the dual sim capabilities.

My current firmware is : MMB29K.G935FXXU1APF2
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] p2kin:
I'm not sure you got correct advice from Samsung on this occasion. In order for dual sim to work, it needs hardware support & none of the European models officially sold has it.

As for software/firmware, I think firmware is not different for 935F & 935FD. Both are same.
