Easiest way is to be in system and turn on adb debugging and run adb reboot edl then go about the install
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fivegates:
If you have system access, there is no point to use this tool/guide :) I was able only to boot in fastboot

Qualcomm tool is not for fastboot or recovery mode, but for qualcomm drivers mode (USB to serial port).

So if you can boot to recovery or fastboot, probably don't need this pack.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmhyde:
For the people that cant install drivers (like me), if the powershell method fails, restart windows pressing the F7 key, it will reboot in test mode, and then you can ( It worked for me) install the drivers.

Now i have a problem, after I start the process in Msmtool, it stops at "param preprocessing" the timer is not moving and the timer is stuck at 6s.

any suggestions?

Are there any disadvantages to this? I'm on stock and have a weird audio recording problem which I'm 99% sure is a software problem, but reflashing the stock rom doesn't fix it... Maybe this will but I first want to be sure of the potential negative outcome

I can restore my phone back to stock with this tool, a I can unlock my bootloader, I can flash recovery....but I can't install any custom rom. It gives mount system error...

I can flash magisk.

What im missing?

Sometimes after flash I get No screen with purple led only....

And restore tool almost everytime flashes stock differently. Sometimes it takes 200sek, another time 500sek.

Is there chance I completely bricked something?

Also I can upgrade to PIE if bootloader is locked.

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] snowspark:
You have to follow the instructions very carefully. The instructions say nothing about restarting the PC, but talks about powering off the phone. IOW, turning the phone off and leaving it off when plugging it in.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] muschiu35bv:
How long to keep power button to be sure my device is off? My device is dead is not responding that why i dont know if is off or on.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] snowspark:
I think it will still need to be charged, but powered off. You don't even get a screen of any sort? It should be "soft bricked" not completely malfunctioning.

The first line of the instructions say "if you can boot in fastboot"
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] muschiu35bv:
Yes the phone is not responding. I got this after restoring app data from nandroid backup. And when has finished successfully the device couldn't boot and was returned to recovery and after i switch off and trying to reboot the phone has stop responding.

Update

I was able to power on my phone by keeping press together power and volume up and boot to recovery then i switch off phone. And after i connected to pc the process has begun and finish successfully. Now i know that the Sahara communication failed error is not a driver error is because the device was not powered off . Now i am happy that i was able to fix my phone.Thank you for support!

I just wanted to add if anyone is using virtualbox and windows as a guest, it does work. However I set this tool up on my PC with Windows guest and Linux host and it would not communicate with the msm tool, even though permissions and drivers were set up. I pulled out my laptop with the same scenario and had set up last year and works right away. If your in my situation, it could be hit and miss using virtualbox. This tool has saved my butt a few times already. :)

My OnePlus 6 says it is corrupt when it boots up. Nothing new to these threads but I'm not sure of how to fix it. Do I use this tool to correct it? If so, do I lose all the stuff I have saved on it? Pictures, files, etc?

I have backups and can make a new one but will a backup of a corrupt phone work? I could save everything over onto my computer I guess but as you guys know, it would be time consuming to do all that and still not be rid of the double click start.

Any help would be appreciated. :)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ritik198:
I am getting "Images do not match with the phone" as an error on the tool can anyone please help me
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] kingwicked:
only way to fix device is corrupt issue is to use msmtool as far as i found , there are also versions for 5.1.11 msmtool 4.0 available on forum check it in mega unbrick thread. that is the only way to get rid of the issue i found. You will loose everything on device. after flashing this tool you will have a clean phone with internal memory wiped.

You can restore backup after all procedures to have a twrp running on your phone.

only restore data partition of your backup made via twrp.

the backup version should have same security patch in it

e.g for android pie 9.0.3 . your phone should be on OOS 9.3 with twrp when restoring data partition

DONOT try restoring a backup with any sort of wipes . restore without wipe

msmstool is only way to get rid of this device is corrupt issue

before using SMT mode, make qcn backup, otherwise you'll lose imei and phone will be stuck at no service. Terminal emulator/twrp efs backup doesn't help much.

Okay, I put the PC into Test Mode after uninstalling the drivers, etc. With Windows 10 this is interesting to say the least. The drivers that I had uninstalled would not install in Test Mode. I didn't get a screenshot but basically it said the hash was not there so it would not update the drivers.

I put the PC back into Secure Boot and tried the method described in earlier posts in this thread. Now the drivers appear to be messed up. I can't seem to get the drivers installed properly. PowerShell can see my phone's serial number when the phone is in Fastboot Mode. I believe the drivers must be installed for this to happen. Correct?

I can turn File Transfer on and move files back and forth from the phone to the PC. If I start the MSMDownloadTool it says just says Waiting for device.

So far, I have several hours tied up and nothing to show for it. Dang. The phone is just like it was when I started. I guess it could be worse. :)

I have a functioning phone. I was trying to get rid of the Corrupt Phone issue. I like to be able to shut it down and restart it unattended on purpose and when I get the occasional random reboot. There has to be a simpler way to get back to stock than this. Any help would be appreciated.

I am uninstalling every driver that has OnePlus in it and starting over. Here goes!

Edit: I'll be darned! I didn't have to uninstall the drivers to begin with! Installed drivers again. Did not go to Test Mode. The Qualcomm Driver that was already there works. Started the MsmDownloadTool and got the Sahara fault. Restart, shutdown, hold Vol Up and tried again - and again. You have to be patient, sometimes very patient but it worked! Got the Download Complete in green. Phone restarted with the beautiful "Hi there" greeting just like the first time I powered it up.

Thanks for posting this tool and the instructions!

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] A.Priori:
There's an easy fix; just hold shift while you hold restart. It will allow you to start with advanced options and turn off the signing requirement (I think it's option 7 or you can hit f7). The boot up after you do this should allow you to just install the drivers when you plug in the phone once you hold up the power button (while it's off) and then insert usb while windows is up.

Hello everybody.

Im trying to remove the T-Mobile screen when it boot. I just bought a OnePlus 7pro from T-Mobile. I'm following the instructions to use msmdownloadtool, but when I open the MSM it recognize the OP7Pro and it said connected, I uncheck the sha 256, and when i press start it give me some "Sahara error".

Does anybody knows how to fix this in order to be able to install the international firmware ?

Thank you in Advance.

Can someone explain to me how MsmDownloadTool V4.0 works?

First of all, thank you for saving the death to my OP6, you are a legend!

Recently, I have rescued my OP6 from death with this tool, then I have updated to the latest version of Oxygen OS by local update. I have blocked the bootloader and everything works correctly. The doubt is:

1.- To what extent should I worry about using this tool? Is there a risk of Malware, Ransomware, Adware, Keyloggers ...?

2.- What is its official origin? How does MsmDownloadTool V4.0 work and what does it do?

I find it very interesting how it works, since many novice users have had to use it to rescue your bricks made in OP6.

Thanks if someone gives information on the subject.
