I have problem with this program. System sees device but on diffrent COM port than tool lists, any help?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mixlex:
Does it really matter, as long as the tool detects your device, should it not work? Or are you saying the tool is not detecting your phone?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Pacyfelozaurus:
Tool lists COM5, 6 and 8 ports but my USB is 4, 7 and 9

edit: i have switched COM port but tool does not see device (Waiting for device)

System sees device as "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E"
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mixlex:
Does it really matter, as long as the tool detects your device, should it not work?

You know you do this with phone powered off, correct?

Do you have correct driver's installed on your computer?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Pacyfelozaurus:
Tool now sees my phone but it gets stuck at Param Preprocessing. I'll try to reinstalling drivers and give it a try on different computer

edit: reinstalled drivers and unbricked my phone. Big thanks!

In the chaos of trying to upgrade to Android 10 and then downgrade to Android 9 I bricked my phone.

I found this thread and the video but somehow this vital piece was missing and my phone was simply in Fastboot and I was confused as to what was wrong.

This saved me.

Thank you for being so clear in this step.

I have a phone again.

can you help me?

how i can making stock rom flashing with msmdownloadtool?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] gasterakos:
For in my OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren the method that worked is to press and hold the power and volume up button together while the device showing the sahara error and it's still connected. Then you ll hear the usb recognizing sound from your PC. After that if the tool ll not start flashing, just press again only the volume up button and when you ll hear the sound, you should see it work. I found it from a youtube video.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AndroidXL:
the procedure ends fine, phone reboot and then again same error, if the bootloader its locked that is the cause ? if so how the heck i can unlock that thing ?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AhmedHosnySH:
sahara communication failed please try again after power off phone

Hi please help me with this when i try to flash my phone and i hold on volume down and up and put cable it shows to me in msm tool COM connected but after 16 sec it disconnected and phone showed charge every time please help me what i have to do??
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Timmmmaaahh!:
What's with the 'down and up'? OP states 'Power off the phone, then hold for 5 seconds vol up and plug the usb to computer.'. Are you sure the connection is always stable? Which cable are you using? And read the instructions again first to make sure every step is followed correctly.

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AquariumVitae:
When going from Android 9 to 10 on my OnePlus 6T I couldn't reach fastboot mode anymore with Vol_up+Power but only with Vol_up+Vol_dn+Power. Same is true with the EDL mode.

I guess this will be true for the 6 (without T). So what the OP writes is likely outdated, as in many other threads.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Timmmmaaahh!:
Holy cow! You're absolutely right. I haven't used fastboot in a while now and so I tested your theory on my 6T just now. VolUp+Power just boots system! :eek: VolUP+VolDown+Power indeed boots to the bootloader. EDL just the same. Mind = blown. Thank you for clarifying that. :highfive:
[MENTION=8417373]Fivegates[/MENTION] if you're still around, can you please update this in OP?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AquariumVitae:
As you cannot pull the battery... to shutdown/force poweroff the system (in any state?) you have to use VolUp+Power. After 10 seconds of VolUp+Power the device turns off.

But! If you keep it pressed a few seconds longer, it reboots after the forced poweroff! So count/measure precisely 10-11 seconds if it only reboots. (EDL mode or weird crashes have a black screen where you cannot see whether the device turned off right now.)

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Netsab:
Hi guys,

Thanks so much for that guide.

I'm thinking about factory restore my OP6 and I'm learning about that method.

But I have a question (noob one for sure), is the first part (fastboot mode boot + first windows installation + PC booting on the test mode) optional?

I ask because in the video, it doesn't seem to be necessary and it makes the method easier without it...

Thanks in advance.

Edit: finally I used it without the fastboot part instructions. Good device detected with the "vol +" mode in Msmtool, flash my Phone et voil
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sudo_make:
Device does not show up on Fastboot mode, recovery etc.

Hello guys,

So, I was previousley running TWRP + Magisk and a Custom Rom for a while and recently decided to revert back to full stock.

I proceeded flashing the original OTA; but for some reason my device no longer shows up on any of my PCs. I have tested on Windows and Linux, but to no avail.

My device is not listed adb device and fastboot, meaning that I cannot re-lock the bootloader. I have tried resetting my phone, along with trying it on different PCs.

p.s. The cable is NOT original, althought this cable worked perfectly fine before-hand and the install of Windows I'm using right now is in the same state as it was when I was installing ROMs etc.

EDIT: Nothing shows-up in Windows device manager.

I would really appriciate any help you guys can give me.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] recurringintensity:
This tool is extremely easy to use, if done right.. It has no bias of bootloader, recovery, or fastboot. It wants to talk to Qualcomm.

Power & Volume Up. Once screen is black, press and hold BOTH VOLUME BUTTONS then plug phone into PC.

the command:

adb reboot edl

will get the phone into the same mode however u need adb and a working ROM

If Windows doesn't recognize your device then it's 99% going to be an issue with drivers. Manually install drivers, Windows will only 'automatically' install storage drivers. I've only seen Windows 10 do this correctly.

Anymore help?

Time to give up?

Hardware issues?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] baxtex:

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] hardythaker:
I am trying this method but after the download is complete, the device won't boot up on its own. I have to try multiple times for hours sometimes out of the blue it vibrate and boots up but again going to Crash dump mode.

Once its started I am trying to flash it again but same thing happening over.

Can any one help please :(
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] tiga016:
Because crash dump is motherboard issue.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] hardythaker:
So you mean the motherboard is dead??

Seeing cell phones dying this way is more painful. It does not have a single scratch on it... :(
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Pundy:
Relax. I hope you can fix it now.

1. Download this https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=17248734326145733775

2. Download this https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347798730 (this if the driver is not working for you https://onepluscommunityserver.com/list/Unbrick_Tools/Qualcomm drivers.7z)

3. Upzip from 1. and 2. to seperate folder

4. Install the driver from 2.

5. Reboot PC

6. Shut down your OnePlus 6

7. Press and hold Volume Up on you Phone and plug in USB to you PC, release volume up button after 5 sec.

8. Run msm tool *.exe from 1. with administration priv.

9. You'll see Com X connected. If not, uninstall the driver, reboot and install driver again. and start with 6.

10. Hit "Start" in the tool and wait for finish ~230 sec..

11. your phone will boot auto. right after finisch (green).

12. you are done and your OP6 is hopefully alive.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] hardythaker:
Really appreciate your response @Pundy. I have already tried the above steps multiple times (approx 10 times) with the below versions.

enchilada_22_J.50_210121 (OOS 10.3.8)

enchilada_22_O.15_180810_unlocked (OOS 5.1.11)

enchilada_22_O.09_180517 (OOS 5.1.5)

The issue is the phone doesn't auto boot up once the download is finished in the MSM tool. It happened only twice out of ten times that it auto booted but again showed the same Qualcomm crash dump mode.

If I manually try to boot the phone after flashing, it doesn't work, I have to keep trying for hours to switch on the phone with different combinations like the long pressing power button, volume up + power button. And somehow out of the blue it gets on but nothing changes and again the same Qualcomm crash dump mode. (Just now I flashed it again with the OOS 5.1.5 and it didn't boot up and nor I am able to turn it on manually)

Anyway, a couple of times (I believe when the phone booted automatically after flashing) I was able to go into the recovery mode as well and I tried to wipe and clean data but that process gets stuck in between and the phone gets off.

One progress I saw today was when I was trying to turn on the phone it showed me that warning screen which comes when the phone gets completely discharge. I then connected it to the charger and was able to see the OP charging animation.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] tiga016:
Pretty much like that as many ROM developer is saying that it is motherboard issue and software cannot fix it.

Good news if it is charging. Hoping to boot your device. But still there's a chance to have a crash dump again since it's hardware issue.

Hi,

I'm blocked.

I had android 11 and my encrypted partition (password no longer worked). I wanted to start from scratch and do a factory reset from the TWRP with Wipe all without "internal storage".

After this, i'm blocked on MENU with :

Fastboot mode

product name

variant : sdm ufs

bootloader version : /

baseband version : /

serial number : its mine

Secure boot : yes

device state - unlocked

A long time ago, I had already used MSM successfully. But, today, i cant. i can't found my device on "device manager". There are not my phone under "port (COM)" or "unknow device".

When I connect my phone to the PC, the device manager detects a change but does not show anything.

I then appeal to the community to be able to factory reset my phone and flash the TWRP again.

Edit1:

I tried on another ust port : KO

i tried on another PC on Windows 10 with install :

- driver oneplus

- adb

- Qualcomm_QDLoader_HS-USB_Driver_64bit_Setup

Nothing...

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] EngineManShawn:
That did not work for for me! I used the MS download tool twice. I boot back to system but after I unlock the boot loader and then try to flash twrp it says fastboot mode on my device the goes back to the same thing. Crash Dump Qualcomm in red and blue. Everytime. I can set my device up without issues without root or a custom recovery but what fun is that. I have the OnePlus6T for a reason.

Also the device was set up beautiful. I had root threw magisk. TWRP recovery and was running lineage 18.. I then decided to flash a kernel from an app that I have used numerous times before and it was extremely slow to flash. The next thing I know I was in this Qualcomm crash dump disaster. That's all I can say about that! Any help would be awesome. Unfortunately the msm tool just gets me back to system. Of coarse that's better than a brick. Just not what I want...
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] abp_op:
Same issue!

How'd you solve it man?

MSM tool completes, but while rebooting it just goes into crashdump. One in 5/6 tries I'm able to go into stock recovery. But that's not very helpful. Not able to reboot to system at all. Bootloader locked, so can't flash anything. Absolutely stuck here.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mord0rr:
Hi.

I just made a hard reset factory, and partitions became ok. Than root and Magisk.

Except Magisk lost test...everything is ok.
