Still not working

I do what you said but not work. I fogot to mention that it also happened in stock ROM or OS (kitkat and lollipop).
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8197280]Gonza_Naveda[/MENTION] I see... Can you try what I said once more? Read first and then follow. Also, tell me what exactly you do once the process is over in detail. Between, were you having root access in the stock OS?
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8416459]kyocell[/MENTION] You are free to contribute however you wish. I was working on the rawprogram0.xml lately. You can try making that if you wish. Sample is provided at my GitHub repository.

I have posted your guide and have also mentioned you. I edited the spelling mistakes and terms.

I can't give an exact date for completion as I am not actively working on this at the moment. Was busy with so many things.

Yes, it is true that I unbricked using QPST. Those files aren't posted. I had a data loss twice. You can read the whole thread and you will get to know what I am up to. I have mentioned everything.
[Moto E General] kyocell:
Alright thanks for updating
[Moto E General] Gonza_Naveda:
I installed Cardinal OS without gapps, it worked fine until I power off, now it stucks in boot logo and when I enter to TWRP i'm unable to mount system partition and it's size is 0 MB. Maybe my moto e has a hardware problem.
[Moto E General] 4j17h:
[MENTION=8221151]aravindvnair99[/MENTION]

I checked the files rawprogram0.xml & patch0.xml you have uploaded it doesn't match the source files. So I have re-generated them again using the parsegpt.pl tool. I'm uploading them including the scripts to generate the required files to flash using QFIL.

If the flashing process to be done perfectly without any errors we need to extract all the files from gpt.bin[IMG="files"]http://thetechdevotee.net/ss/2017-07-20_11-58-49.png[/IMG] which is very difficult due to the compression they have used.I have already tried various ways & failed in extracting. If anyone can help in extracting those files I think we can get into fastboot & reflash everything.
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8416459]kyocell[/MENTION] Let me know if you make anything.
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8197280]Gonza_Naveda[/MENTION] Are you downloading everything from a reliable source? Have you tried downloading everything fresh? Could you please tell me what you're doing A-Z with complete details including file names?

I believe if you had a hardware problem with the eMMC, your phone wouldn't boot in the first place due to the filesystem in place. Please answer the above questions to further help you with the issue.
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=5907024]4j17h[/MENTION] Yes, I have already mentioned that the QPST files aren't fine tuned for Motorola Moto E. They are the basic structures. I edited a lot. The actual ones got lost during the data loss twice and I'm really annoyed with that. I was regenerating everything. The files are there on my system and not on GitHub. I didn't upload as I didn't finish yet. I'm really busy with so many things.

It would be great if people would contribute so that the work load could be distributed.

And yes, you obviously can't extract a Linux image on a Windows system. They can't read the Linux metadata at all. Both have different ones. And by doing so, you are actually spoiling the image file. It's not the compression, but the filesystem consistency and size that matters.

Thanks for uploading what you have done though! I really appreciate it. I'll go through it as soon as possible and get back to you.

[Moto E General] ayushg1214:
Harsh 1998 was a fake guy, he made fake claims of unbricking moto e. Any other development would be appreciated
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=5795557]ariel.buszczak[/MENTION] Replace with what? If you mean the files I uploaded, sure. Have a look and do let us know the result. I'm constantly updating the files as I build.
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=7187571]Harsh_1998[/MENTION] is just lying. I'm trying my best to do as much as possible. Honest people who are willing to help, please join me. I'll be happy to add one extra person to this DevDB project. Vacancy is there.

[MENTION=5454478]arputhatonyking[/MENTION] I've been offline trying whatever I can. I've been doing trial and error recently. Files are updated as soon as they are developed. So things are in beta. Please proceed with caution.

[MENTION=7187571]Harsh_1998[/MENTION] is just a fake guy. Don't waste time [MENTION=7153728]mannu233[/MENTION] . I'm trying my best to do what I can to help you all. I'll post instructions once I'm done with the files part. You can use the files I have uploaded while referring to other threads and websites for instructions for the time being. Also, please make sure you tag the correct person. I am [MENTION=8221151]aravindvnair99[/MENTION] unlike the person you tagged. Thanks for all the support everyone!!! Really appreciate that! :) :) :)

Between, I request everyone to please keep a watch on the first post. That's where I update stuff... I don't post replies for updates. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I am doing this to keep things nice and clean.

I appreciate that. :angel: :good: But unfortunately, you got it wrong again. :eek: :D It's [MENTION=8221151]aravindvnair99[/MENTION] If you tag the wrong person, they would be thinking what is going on. So, next time just make sure. Incase, you too are testing the files, let us know the result. Thanks for your time! :) :fingers-crossed:
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
Thanks a lot [MENTION=4792688]marvjulz[/MENTION] ! :) You can try the files anytime and let us know the result. I update the files as I build. So stay tuned. Between, I don't post a reply every time though for updates. I update the main DevDB post instead.
[Moto E General] ayushg1214:
Hey I don't know maybe I found something that might be useful to you people.

It is the Data Scrub Tool https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b

I think this the correct link(pls Google it if this isn't the correct one), I didn't understand what's the use of this tool, might be useful
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8030652]ayushg1214[/MENTION] Data Scrub Tool is a JavaScript aka JS based tool which removes the extra information from terminal, cmd aka Command Prompt or any other bash shell to form the bootloader string output in the correct format which can be entered in the Motorola website to receive the bootloader unlock key via registered GMail address.

Example:

Before using Data Scrub tool:

On a Windows PC, the returned string format would be

$ fastboot oem get_unlock_data

(bootloader) 0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230

(bootloader) 30373731363031303332323239#BD00

(bootloader) 8A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F95

(bootloader) 1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000

(bootloader) 0000000

On a Mac OS PC or Linux PC, the returned string format would be

INFO0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230

INFO30373731363031303332323239#BD00

INFO8A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F95

INFO1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000

INFO0000000

After using the tool:

0A40040192024205#4C4D355631323030373731363031303332323239#BD008A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F951A3E5#1F532800020000000000000000000000

Hence, this tool isn't useful for any of us.
[Moto E General] ayushg1214:
Sorry! I didn't knew that. Sincere apologies for disturbing on a useless thing
[Moto E General] marvjulz:
Ok which files i've only seen the firehose.mbn file
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
You can try all the files I upload [MENTION=4792688]marvjulz[/MENTION] I'm travelling at present. So internet keeps fluctuating. If I find bugs or any issues, I remove files. I'll upload more files soon. Stay tuned. Thanks for yor time! :)

Hey, I have a backup made from my "Moto E", can it serve?

By the way, I have taken my cell phone to an official Motorola service and I have been told that a "plate repair"
[Moto E General] mannu233:
Guy what's the size of backup.IMG and one more thing u will charged 5k for plate replacement

---------- Post added at 09:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 AM ----------

for what instruction are given :confused::confused:
[Moto E General] ariel.buszczak:
I'm uploading the backup to Google Drive, and the backup has a size of 2 GB. I did not understand what you said about the plate, but I understand that you have to repair a part of the plate and not change the entire plate. The arrangement costs me about 100 dollars, and here in Argentina are $ 1650, that is what costs half the new phone. By the way, the backup is in a folder but there are several files that give the total that I indicated in the beginning
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=5795557]ariel.buszczak[/MENTION] You can upload it. I'll see what I can do with it. What's the code of it by the way? Is it XT1022? I have two XT1022 phones. Sorry, I don't understand what 'plate' is supposed to be... Do you mean the SIM plates or display digitiser plates or is it something else?

[MENTION=7153728]mannu233[/MENTION] My backup file is 3.64GB. I tried taking backup so many times and it always results in this size. I have tried various Motorola Moto E XT1022 condor. The instructions are general. What I mean't is that for Blank Flash to work, that is a prerequisite.

[MENTION=5795557]ariel.buszczak[/MENTION] 2GB? Of which all partitions is this backup? And do you have a XT1022 or is the Moto code different?
[Moto E General] ariel.buszczak:
Backup Moto E

This is my backup:

link removed

I think is for a CM 12.1 but I don't remember!

Sorry.

Have you tried extracting gpt.bin file? & to say exactly it is the EFI system partition.

Meanwhile is there anything you want me to help you other than generating the rawprogram0.xml & patch0.xml files? I'm happy to help you with anything?
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8416459]kyocell[/MENTION] No problem! :) Thanks though!
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
It is not the EFI system partition. That file contains the partition layout, integrity check mechanisms, the bootloader, etc. So it definitly is a pain to extract. You can go through all my things and contribute in whichever you are interested.

Between, are you using Kali Linux?
[Moto E General] 4j17h:
oh yeah how did I forget that little thing. Thank you for correcting.

Yes as a VM.
[Moto E General] Gonza_Naveda:
I have another problem now and I think the battery is full discharged so I can even power on, just white led sometimes and doesn't charge.
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8197280]Gonza_Naveda[/MENTION] Okay, so the battery was the problem from the beginning. Replace the battery after checking the voltage as I have mentioned in the main post.

[MENTION=5907024]4j17h[/MENTION] Let me know what you can help me with. I have downloaded the files you uploaded. Will go through them when I get time.

Between, do you hack or pentest? How come you are using Kali Linux?

[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8416459]kyocell[/MENTION] I guess you haven't gone through my contributing file on GitHub. I have already mentioned both these links there.

Have a look at all the links I have mentioned.
[Moto E General] kyocell:
Oh alright. Sorry!
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8416459]kyocell[/MENTION] No problem. Have a look at them and let me know if you find anything useful.

Between, I think my files are totally corrupted to the data loss. The recovery wasn't successful. I have deleted those files and kept only those I think or rather guess are proper. I'm working on them as I get time. Also, I suggest you go through my entire XDA main post and GitHub repository for the same. I have posted valuable information there. Make sure to follow the prerequisites first. If you have some good contributions, I'll add you in to XDA and GitHub.

I suggest you use Windows XP with the correct drivers. VM is also fine. Setup the USB bypass to connect direct and automatically if that's the case.

[MENTION=5907024]4j17h[/MENTION] Try helping if possible. If you have some good contributions, I'll add you in to XDA and GitHub. Between, do you hack or pentest? How come you are using Kali Linux?
[Moto E General] 4j17h:
Other than regenerating the files I do not know how can I help in solving the issues related to unbricking the MOTO E using QFIL.

I mainly use it for web application penetration testing & vulnerability assessment.
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=5907024]4j17h[/MENTION] Okay, no problem. Any contribution if possible is always welcome! :) I'm also trying to regenerate the files as I get time. I'm quite held up at the moment. Have been talking to some research professors about this recently and will continue further after I'm done discussing.

Let me know if you find anything that can be of help. Thanks! :)

I see, I too use Kali Linux for the same and a few other stuff.
[Moto E General] sauravdante:
First of all thank you for providing hope for dead condors.

[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=3467219]sauravdante[/MENTION] I'm still not done making the files. I'm busy with other things. As I get time, I do. I'm trying to edit the bootloader files to skip few partitions so that a ROM can be flashed. You may wait until then, contribute or buy a new phone.

Anyone who is willing to help, try editing boot.img to skip integrity checks and other unwanted partitions. That's required as of now.

[MENTION=8435474]rizvijabir[/MENTION] Please check my XDA main post and GitHub repository properly. I've clearly mentioned everything.
[Moto E General] dafonkme:
Hi aravindvnair99

I know that it has been a long time ago, but I live in an area quite far from civilization and that is why I have lost so much time in getting the right tool to open the phone. The internet is my only connection to the world out there and you will understand how important the smartphone is to me.

Returning to my issue that I clarified at the beginning, I measured the voltage of the battery and gives me 3.6. So I mean, apparently it's fine.

I have been testing so many things (with two different phones) that I have gathered so many files that I did not know where to start. That's why I deleted everything and want to start clean again.

I don't know if it still will be possible for someone to help me to reinstall or re-boot the bootloader of this MotoE 1021.

Anyway I thank anyone who takes the trouble to guide me a little ;)

Danks:good:

I noticed that my first query is not shown in quote so I re-copy it below here

Hello, my problem is, firstly I was able to flash a Moto E XT1021 with Lolipop firmware but something was gone wrong so I tried to redo the flash but I take the wrong file and I did it with KitKat 4.2.

It instaled fine but afterwards made an upgrade to KitKat 4.4 and shut down and never start again. You can not enter the fastboot and just blink the white led. I was searching, reading and trying to do everything I found online but nothing helps. There are some who say that it is impossible and that it is better to throw the phone. I do not want to give up. I read around here that if doing the blankflash and giving the error FAILED (blank-flash: sdl-transfer-image: sdl-hello: error sending packet) that your bootloader files do not match your bootloader version, use another bootloader. How to know which bootloader should I use?

... if someone can give me a help I would be very grateful. Thank you
[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8379617]dafonkme[/MENTION] I understand your situation. Most people have rewrote the bootloader and other crucial eMMC sectors with random files found on the internet. So, for them, recovery is going to be a real pain. The blank flash files you used for Moto E are incorrect. There are no files out there for Moto E at the moment. What you find is all fake. And the ones I have uploaded, aren't finished. I'm still working on them. We need to work with the motoboot.img file now. Someone extract it and send me the contents in a .rar or .zip compressed file while I work on the others.
[Moto E General] dafonkme:
Many thanks for your reply. I have a firmware of the MotoE 1021 that had worked when I flashed it. Inside that folder there is a Motoboot.img If you need anything let me know.

I crapped it up, when I wanted to do the flash again and I took the wrong file and I did it with the KitKat firmware that was installed correctly but then it wanted to make an update to 4.4 and from there it did not work anymore.

The blankflasher I used did not work at all. The error FAILED always comes out (blank-flash: sdl-transfer-image: sdl-hello: error sending packet). Or also "fastbbot" is not recognized as a command or "mfastboot" is not recognized bla, bla.

I hope that at some point we can do something that work effectively.

:good:Thank's for your response and your commitment

Maybe charger, cable, micro USB or chip (IC) of charge mode.

[Moto E General] aravindvnair99:
[MENTION=8379617]dafonkme[/MENTION] The patch files and programmer files aren't proper. They are requesting partitions that don't even exist. So, we need to edit them. I'm caught up with lot of things. So, I don't have much time. That's why I was looking for a developer or someone who is willing to contribute in this regard. But unfortunately, no one came forward. If you are interested, you may look and the reference section of my GitHub repository where I have posted files, links, etc and try working on this. Make sure to go through the entire repo first.Feel free to get back to me. I'm working on this project still in my free time though albeit slowly.

I would appreciate those of who are willing to contribute.
