I was successful using the IN21AA (international) tool on an IN2010 (chinese). I am struggling, however to change my Baseband firmware. Is it possible to change it using this tool? I prefer to use the Baseband for the IN2015 model instead of the IN2010.

I'm using OP 8 IN2010 and i moved to IN21BA and i use MSM to move IN21 AA( without back up Persist.img), and I'm so Lucky because the Fingerprint still work. But i recommand back up this img. Because it's Very important. Exactly i've got my Persis.img before i'm runing MSM.

anyone...

so i got a qualcomm crashdump, hat to restore with this tool, was not able to back up persist (as i was in crashdump)... my fingerprint was working perfectly before... used this tool and now nothing... fingerprint enrollment issues...

Which OOS do I download from the first page?

I get the IN21BA, but my current version is OOS 10.5.7 and the OP's only go to 10.5.6.

Does it matter?
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
Just download the IN21BA version since you're running an IN21BA build on your device.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] shadowofdeth:
Hey and thanks.

There are a few versions under the IN21BA. I downloaded the last one (10.5.6) so is that ok?

Every answer to your questions is in the OP.

You're not entitled to any fast answer, I only check those forums and answer on them whenever I have time but also (more important) whenever I'm willing to.

As a sidenote, asking me exact same question by sending me a DM isn't the best thing to do :)

[MENTION=8234677]Some_Random_Username[/MENTION] is there a way to use these on the T-Mobile branded OnePlus 8? When I followed the broken persist guide, when trying to downgrade to 10.5.4, the MSM tool gave me errors, I'm guessing cause it's a branded phone?

You must use the T-Mobile specific tool since your device is a T-Mobile unit.

[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] kekoslice:
This might be dumb but I'm having issues getting into EDL mode. I've bricked my OP8 device and boots up to the "Qualcomm CrashDum Mode" gui. I converted my TMO version to an international version. Which MSM should I use to recover.

Also when I hold both vol up and vol down and plug in my usb device the phone boots up into fastboot instead of edl. What gives? I have made sure my computer have the proper drivers so i know those are good. Any help is appreciated.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] kekoslice:
I'll answer my own post for anyone that might have done the same TMO to international conversion. You must restore using the MSM TMO tool available here. The other versions will not work.

Also, you must re unlock device/bootloader with factory token from Oneplus.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xampy:
Hi all,

I have an IN2010 OP8 (Chinese version) with IN21AA version installed and I would like to install "IN21BA" but I have one doubt: if instead of doing OP process I install a zip package from "Settings > System > System updates > Top-Right icon > Local upgrade", I have same possibilities to lose the fingerprint sensor? Because I think no persist.img backup is made with that process.

Tell me please.

Thank you.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
Yes

Hence the instructions in OP telling to root device (will wipe your data if not bootloader unlocked) and use dd to back up /persist.
[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xampy:
Thank you for replying. Then I have another doubt (sorry :confused:):

If I root my OP8, would I be able to remove root and lock bootloader again after all process finishes?

If answer to previous question is "yes", will I have problems related to widevine etc. with apps like Netflix? After unrooted ofc.

Thank you so much.

EDIT: Nevermind, I unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP, rooted, backed up persist.img, downgraded from version 10.5.10IN21AA to 10.5.6IN21AA and after that installed from smartphone the 10.5.7IN21BA firmware. Then checked that no root is available and recovery is stock. Locked bootloader again. All is working like a charm.

Thank you OP.

this is not working for me

ok so I was trying to downgrade from Android 11 back to 10 but instead of flashing through settings and system I did the ''flash all'' method and soft bricked i believe. I can get into fastboot and recovery I can also boot into twrp and see my storage on my PC. this tool just is not working for me. I tried two computers both with drivers installed. I used different ports and cables but it's a no go for me. I get this error as you can see on the pic ''smt config not found'' Is there any type of zip I can flash when I fastboot boot twrp? I'm stuck but my device is not completely dead.

Hello,

I'm trying to use MSM tool to unbrick my OP8 but I'm having issues booting into EDL mode. I tried to turn it off and to press volume up and volume down simultaneously but it didn't do anything. I tried with ADB in TWRP, with the "./adb reboot edl" command, my phone did reboot and it quickly appeared as QHUSB_BULK before rebooting in recovery mode ... I tried with the fastboot method but fastboot gives me this error when I enter this command

"./fastboot oem edl

FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')"

I'm running out of ideas ..

Also, I tried to download the Qualcomm Drivers but the link doesn't seem to work (I get an error 404)

Hey guys. So i attempted the fingerprint restore guide and it didnt work. I bought the phone second hand and apparently the guy before me unlocked the phone. Long story short, i used the restore tool to bring the phone back to stock state. All was well until i rebooted. Then i got a qualcomm crashdump. I restored again to no avail. I used msmtool to read a couple partitions and it looks like persist partition got corrupted. Only problem is my bootloader is locked due to msm restore, and i cant boot into rom to enable oem unlocking to flash my persist backup. Is there anyway to bypass enable unlocking. Or is there a way to restore persist with msm? Or qualcomm tools? Such a simple problem. Just no tool to flash persist from edl mode. Other devices like oppo have this ability. Why doesnt msm tool flash important partitions????

[OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jeffsga88:
Unfortunately, if you've tried multiple MSM tools and all completed but if kept booting into crashdump mode, you probably won't be able to fix it yourself. I had the same thing happen to me and the only option was to send it in for a replacement from OnePlus. If that's not an option to send it back for repair / replacement for whatever reason, possibly wait until a new MSM tool is released with Android 11 (or ask OnePlus to remote connect and see if they flash it with Android 11 MSM tool), although even that may not work. Also, once you use MSM tool, it relocks your bootloader and you can't unlock it again until you boot into system and check the oem unlock in developer options. Also, had you searched on here more you could have avoided all this if you only went back because of no root on Android 11 as there are multiple post about how to root Android 11, although that's irrelevant now.

OnePlus 8 stuck in fastboot mode and Msm tool not working.

Hi all, Can someone please help me, I am a noob. My OnePlus 8 is stuck in Fastboot mode and does not let me do anything else (i.e. recovery mode). If I restart it loads back into the Fastboot mode. This is CN model running the Global ROM, Android 10.5. I have followed the steps in the first page on how to unbrick using the Msm tool but it doesn't seem to work. I do not have stock OnePlus cable and I am using a third party cable. My phone is getting recognised by my PC when I connect it.

My issues:

When I run the Msm tool and press Vol up + Vol down and Power button together the qualcomm drivers show under "Ports" in my device manager but there is a warning icon next to it. In the Msm Tool the Status of Connection is N/A & waiting for device to connect. Not sure what is causing the issue and what am I doing wrong. Can someone please help. Please see screenshot below for your reference.

Thanks in advance.

https://1drv.ms/u/s!AubIV2PXG9p4gqpikPYPslxfnvdQ6w?e=3i9Bm4

EDIT: I was able to get the Msm tool to work now. I had to updated the Qualcomm drivers. I got a new problem now.

I followed all the steps and it ran all the steps correctly with no errors. However, once the phone rebooted after the Msm tool process was complete I am getting the following error "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot. Visit this link on another device g.co/ABH". The phone restarts after a minute into the Fastboot mode. I don't remember the correct version of Android I was running. I tried all the 7 version listed in the first page and the same error was coming each time. I was using the International versions. My phone is CN model with Global Rom.

Can someone please help. Thanks.

Thanks. Just wanted to check if your answer was for my initial query of device not showing up on Msm tool.

I have actually updated my request with an edit. I was able to get my device connected and run the process by using a third party cable by upgrading the QUALCOMM drivers. My current problem is once Msm tool process was complete I am getting the following error "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot. Visit this link on another device g.co/ABH". Do you think I won't get this error if I use stock OnePlus cable.
