Hi good people, this is my first post since I don't know where else to go.
My phone Vivo V7+ received an OTA update, so I downloaded and installed the updates, but after updating my phone now can't detect SIM card, I tried many different good SIM but still can't be detected.
I tried factory reset but failed, can't revert back to old firmware.
So I spent many hours of researching and watching YouTube tutorials and I tried to flash stockrom via QFIL. First I encountered problem going into EDL mode (which I spent hours of researching too) but solved it by shorting pinout at the back of the phone.
My laptops detect my phone qualcomm 9008 COM3, downloaded two V7+ stock rom and when I tried to flash via QFIL it will always give "Sahara Fail".
Some methods I tried;
1. Putting firmware at bin folder
2. Renaming folder into shorter name
3. Click download fast as soon as phone gets into EDL mode
4. Tried unlocking bootloader via adb but failed
5. Turn on airplane mode in laptops
Hopefully someone can help , thanks.
Anyone? Help? Now i lost my IMEI and i don't know what is the original number
While probably flashing wrong files you wiped baseband data .
To fix your imei you will need this QCN file which you can download from here:

Good luck
Thanks @Teddy Lo for replying. All I did was followed the steps how to flash stock rom and I did downloaded the rom of the same model. But the steps that are floating around are not in great detail. And many YouTube tutorials are not in English almost 99% are in Hindi.
After my attempt of flashing I lost my IMEI and I don't have the box anymore (threw them away long time ago, lesson learned).
I guess I need to visit the nearest Vivo service centre for repair.
Thanks again for replying and providing necessary links.
Hi , why you give up so easy ?
1. Download this firmware :
https://www.mediafire.com/file/1f5r...xx.0_msm8953_split_Repairmymobile.in.rar/file
Once you downloaded extract to Desktop ...
2. Now , Run Qfil tool with Administrator and insert each files to right places .
See image bellow
https://ibb.co/09Fb9k5
Select just the way I marked it in the picture!
Let me know if you fixed or not ...
Wow thanks @Teddy Lo for replying.
Why am I giving up? Maybe because I scouted forums and YouTubes for hours and day, and when I tried it on my Laptop it keeps giving the same error over and over.
The big problem now is that I lost my original IMEI (whis is stupid of me not talking note of it before doing anything else), and I threw my box long time ago.
I'm gonna try the link you gave me and let you know how it goes. Thanks.
Hi @Teddy Lo, so I tried flashing again and I didn't get "Sahara fail" this time but instead I got "Firehose fail".
Oh well guess I'll be visiting Vivo .
Thanks again.
SOLVED.
I went to Vivo service center and told them to wipeout everything and downgrade firmware to the previous version and they did it in 20 minutes.
Now my phone is working normally and they got my IMEI back.
Admin please close thread.

I bricked my Desire 310 when i tried to replace the stock recovery.
Rooted it successfully, read a lot of threads regarding MTK-based phones and thought i might be able to get more out of it, as i wasn't completely fine with 4.2.2 installed on a brand new phone.
However, i ended up with trying to install a custom recovery as described [here(would be a link if i were allowed to post them)]. The whole process gave no error, everything looked fine, ending with a "success!"-message, followed by a reboot, showing just the HTC splash... and a reboot... and a reboot... and.. well i guess you know what happened next.
Based on a whole lot of different threads, this might not be the end of my phone, as i can still see the [preloader(would be a picture if i were allowed to link it)] in my device manager, which basically means "hi, i'm not completely dead and you might find a way to recover me".
The question is: how?
I tried out SP Flash tool and MTK Flash tool so far. both programs find the phone when i get it ready to download my previously made backup (hey. i might not exactly know what i'm doing there, but at least i saved everything before i wrecked it! ).
The problem is: I just get an[error message(look above)] about some failed download to SRAM sorcery, which sounds cool and important but doesn't give me a clue about what i'm doing wrong or how to fix it. (cable ok tested 3 different cables, including the one the device was shipped with, also tested it on my PC running win 8.1 x64 and another one running win 7 x86)
Does anyone have an idea how i could get at least a working bootloader/recovery back to my device?
Tell me if you need any extra information
I also link an attachment including the log file created by SP Flash Tool.

Hello,
I had my device running slow from the moment I opened it the first time.
I know I should have take it to the warranty, but I needed the time all day.
I dropped it so I couldn't take it there anymore.
Now, since the warranty is void, I wanted to change the 5.0.2 lollipop, hoping for a normal response time from it.
I tried installing TWRP and I didn't suceed. It got stuck on the Lenovo logo.
I managed to put back a recovery from another ROM (lenovo) and used QcomDLoader.exe to flash another rom. A stock version of A6010 but of 16GB ROM not 8 like mine.
It didn't work, even if I waited more than 500 seconds (more than 5 minutes). Now, it's in black screen, won't come out of it.
I managed to find some errors with another qualcomm flash applications:
Code:
Sahara Version:0
Start Sending Programmer
Download Fail:System.Exception: Unable to download Flash Programmer using Sahara Protocol
at QC.QMSLPhone.Phone.QPHONEMS_SaharaArmPrgDownload(String sFileName)
at QC.SwDownloadDLL.SwDownload.QPHONEMSSaharaDownloadArmPrg(UInt64& version, String armPrgPath)
Download Fail:Sahara FailSahara Fail
Finish Download

I hope someone has an idea that could help me out. I'm trying non-stop for 10 hours now. My head really hurts, I didn't just post this here without trying to solve it myself first.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Andrei
UPDATE:
Okay, so I managed to install a 8GB A6000 firmware, but the GSM network is not working. It shows 2 sims of 2G and none is working.
I have the open source files of my original firmware on lenovo's site.
How could I replace the entire OS, so masically copy/paste the files from computer onto the phone? Or ..can I make a flash version from those files?
Thank you!
Andrei
Question: My 5x will only show in QC download mode as 9008. I have this same error for my LGH791 with the error you show above for Sahara fail. How did you overcome this? Was it the flash programmer, did you determine the cause?
Hi everyone,
This may be a challenge for smart phone genius' out there (kudos to the clever person that can help me). Here is the scenario... I bought a new smart phone from Wallmart a few weeks ago (SAMSUNG model SM-G550T2). Yesterday, I decided to try to root it. I was able to root it successfully (no problems yet). Later, (after I had messed with the settings, like a dumb noob) I rebooted the phone and I get "Custom binary blocked by FRP lock" and of course it won't start. So, that said, I started scanning the internet for a way to fix this (and at first I was encouraged by all the info). Here is what I have, unsuccessfully, tried. Installed the Kies3 program on 2 different PCs. Both said that my phone was not compatible. BTW, I tried the original Kies program also and it would not connect. ODIN worked fine but I could not locate an image file of the stock firmware for this phone (maybe it's too new, I don't know). I can get the phone into DOWLOAD mode but not RECOVERY mode. If someone can help I will be eternally greatful.
YouTube on 5 stock firmware link plus manual and link to USB driver and Odin. under YouTube name rootandriodz. he even has a ROM tutorial. Im sure there are other postings as well. just in case you dont trust the first one you see. good luck, i have the same phone..

**** DISCLAIMER ****
This post is an EXPERT-LEVEL Post.
I am NOT RESPONSIBLE for what you do to your device.
Please not that I am still working on a solution to this brick.
Hello XDA-Developers,
I recently got my hands on a Meizu M3 note and, of course, wanted the newest - nougat - firmware on it. It seems I accidently flashed a incompatible (or currupted) Update (flashed an A Firmware on a G version phone). Sadly it broke down and showed only vertical stripes on it's display.
Image here: https://ibb.co/cpGunm
After some hours research I found some information on how to reflash the M3 note via SP Flash Tool here and here. Since the first tutorial is for the M3 and M3s and the second tutorial is for the M model of the device (I've got the L model) there are some changes needed for it to somehow magically work.
I exchanged files provided (such as preloader.bin, lk.bin etc) with the matching ones from the latest Official Global Firmware from Meizu. Just extracted them out of the update.zip. (Don't forget to select the Authentication File!)
Image here: https://ibb.co/k3zYDR
Short flashing tutorial: make sure your device is turned off and disconneced then click "Download" and connect your device via USB. Don't worry if it now shows an error like "Download DA Failed", just dismiss the error and click "Download" again. It should flash the device now.
Sadly it is not possible to flash the boot.img provided in the latest official update.zip from Meizu (you'll get an security mismatch error). BUT the boot-verified.img provided by the chinese archive is flashable and is accepted by the device. The device is now in a bootloop, fastboot is accessible via holding Vol - and Power, but no recovery access via Vol+ and Power
The files seem to be repaired now but the display still shows these stripes - I think the firmware actually fried something on the display chipset. I bought a replacement screen and then will update this thread as soon as possible. If you have any Ideas of how to unbrick the device feel free to discuss.
Update 18.11.2017
Thanks to @ncristian !
I did as he suggested, downloaded and flashed the files from the russian forum here (if you do not speak russian and want to get straight to the point: Direct Download Link)
I still have the stripes on my screen but the device booted up successfully and got recognized again by my computer! While booting up I could see the stripes changing their color slightly as the bootanimation of flyme was playing. I guess I will have to replace the screen to make the display error go away... I will update this post as soon as I did so
Update 10.11.2018
Sadly I never actually exchanged the screen, I'm running a Pro 7 Plus as a daily driver now and I'm loving it
Update 19.05.2019
I have attached the boot-verified.img as someone requested it
I had the same problem and I solved thanks to this: https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=739028&st=24480#entry65580668 and Google Translate; I downloaded the .zip, installed drivers, launched the flash tool and flashed files contained in the folder L691H (Remember to install drivers and disable antivirus or it will not work). Then I downloaded FlyMe 6.1.0.0G, went into recovery with vol up + power, copied the update.zip into the device "Recovery" and flashed it; the only problem I had is that the phone charged but he didn't recognize the battery level; by reflashing the files contained in the 4pda .zip, the battery level went up (obviously, after leaving the phone charging for about an hour).
Someone please help my meizu m3 note bricked after flashing flyme 7.8 beta.

Try reflashing via the original recovery, that might be your easiest solution. If that doesn't work you might try your luck with something like SP flash tool
Hey. Uhmm i know it's an olld post but i'm hopeless now. I need the boot-verified img you have. i can't find it anywhere. can you send it to my gmail ?? [email protected]

First of all, thank you mate I successfully downloaded the boot verified. But still it didn't turned on. Just no power but recognized by the sp tool. I'm starting to think that downloaded again the wrong firmware. I also found out that their are two main board(or whatever is that). So this global firmware can be flashed in the both L and M series. I'm wondering what firmware you used to flash. Again, thank you in advance ^_^
l got same problem .. (because I'm not read careful )l tired to flash using many firmware or using boot verified .. i tired that for 2 Days.. So l give up.. take my device to profesional service . and solved. solved with Emmc repair ..
my device is L681H.

Hi , try to put your phone into Download mode , and use latest Odin version in order to re-flash the latest stock version of OS if you are note sure which one is , just send me 7 and 8 number from imei ...
Thank you for your answer, I managed to fix my phone by flashing the latest firmware. I was downloading it from a website and it turns out it wasn't the last one.
After I looked on different site, I went on sammobile and I downloaded the latest version, It took me one entire day, the download speed was slow AF and my internet connection crashed in the middle of it.
I had to ask a friend to download it at his place and then, bring it to me.
I'm really happy, I managed to fix it.
