I am exploring two approaches for phone recovery
#1 compile rom using kernel source from the MFG (The MFG gave me the FTP download info but my device wasn't in the FTP folder. Long story short, the MFG software team is
"working on getting the files for me" That was a few days ago.... We'll see what happens.)
#2 Use MPRG and msimage files along with flashing program and raw image files from the phone for recovery.
All my research says that two files are needed to unbrick your Qualcomm device
#1 MPRGxxx.mbn/hex
#2 xxxx_msimage.mbn
(where xxxx is the Qualcomm chipset)
I know the msimage file is unique to the device because of partition structure for each manufacturer and therefore you'd need to create the file using QPST.
From reading here it appears that the MPRG file is defined as RAM
http://www.androidbrick.com/unbrick...-you-have-the-right-kind-of-rom-qhsusb_dload/
Would this file (MPRGxxxx.mbn) be universal among all devices that use the same chipset? Can someone give a yes or no and why? Thanks!
hmm, sam problem with me.
i just flash my phone yesterday ( redmi note 3 sd) and i had bootloop my phone, i tried many method, but its say, that the bootloader is locked and i cant flash the phone, then i found " tool studio" emmc download. i'm missing those mprgxxxx.mbn .. . i try to figure out how to build these file too
Mprgxxxx.mbn and xxxx_msimage.mbn for MSM 8953
Ok

Hi, I have a Huawei Mate 10 pro BLA-L29 C432 with unlocked bootloader frp unlocked that is hard bricked.
Reason why it was hard bricked was using HWota and flashing the wrong files
The device shows up in device manager as USB COM 1.0 (COM4) along with COMMUNICATIONS PORT (COM 1).
I have purchased the DC Phoneix + HCU timed license for 3 days ending on 3/4/2019 at 9 AM.
I have downloaded the "BLA-AL00B_1.0.0.35_Board_Software_China_Nonspecific_An droid_8.0.0_EMUI_8.0.0_05022FPT.dgtks" board firmware directly from DC Phoenix
I have also downloaded the "BLA-L29C_8.0.0.115(C432)_Firmware_Lithuania_Latvia_Norway_Romania_Hungary_Greece_Austria_Czech_Republic_Bulgaria_Poland_Slovenia_Croatia_Serbia_Nonspecific.app" appfile directly from DC Phoenix
I begin by selecting the "BLA-AL00B_1.0.0.35_Board_Software_China_Nonspecific_An droid_8.0.0_EMUI_8.0.0_05022FPT" file in the update file selection. Then i select the "BLA-L29C_8.0.0.115(C432)_Firmware_Lithuania_Latvia_Norway_Romania_Hungary_Greece_Austria_Czech_Republic_Bulgaria_Poland_Slovenia_Croatia_Serbia_Nonspecific.app" file in the update app file selection.
I click update and am provided with the following error message to the left of the screen

Attention, this is OTA type file and can't be written via software. Writing it via fastboot may damage the phone. Please use files from our support area.
so I select no, because of this error. I chose to download more "update.zip" files from the internet, and they all give me this attention message.
i then proceeded to use huawei extractor tool to extract kernel,ramdisk,recovery_ramdisk, recovery_vbmeta, and recovery_vendor. I flashed them through fastboot successfully, but no life from the device. As a matter of fact, when i disconnect the device, I have to start from scratch again.
I am really running out of ideas here. =(

you already done what may be possible to recover
huawei can do it if it is in warranty
It's seems that the error is right there , the security patch isn't supported so it won't finish writing the files, it is stated in DC locker that some devices like mate 10 pro and newer devices are not supported the same reason why there are no new unlocked codes for bootloader on DC unlock and no new unlocked codes for sim also, have your tried flashing those files yourself through fastboot method ? With out the hcu from DC
?
I had same problème
Now phone is OK but IMEI 000000000000
This worked for me, it requires IDT and unencrypted board firmware (these are usually paid). dtgks might work if you only flash board firmware, but you have to be careful so it doesn't wipe oeminfo (if you still want to unlock after. You can still get unlock code through HCU on board firmware so it doesn't really matter).
Edit xml that comes with unencrypted board so it doesn't erase oeminfo.
Flash bootloader files with DC, phone is put in fastboot mode.
Open up IDT.
Select xml in both settings of IDT and in settings of USBMAP. In USBMAP, select com port in the list and click on Skip.
Now start flashing using IDT.
When flashing is done phone will boot to board firmware.
When on board firmware, follow this guide to get your imeis and that stuff back:
1)Flash board (already done)
2)Flash oeminfo from fastboot (own backup if available, if you edited xml you will still have your own oeminfo flashed)
3) Dump modemnvm_system, modemnvm_factory and modemnvm_backup partitions using dd and adb shell ('dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemnvm_system of=/sdcard/modemnvm_system.img' and so on), board firmware has global root so you don't need to flash Magisk or anything like that (which is impossible anyway, board fw will only accept board or stock images)
4)Flash dumped modemnvm_system, modemnvm_factory and modemnvm_backup using fastboot
5)Modify and brand with HCU (check all checkboxes except the last 2, fill in any missing info)
6)Unlock Sim network with HCU
7)If you previously used HCU to get unlock code you need to generate it again (HCU patches oeminfo so their unlock code works). Also if you forgot to edit xml you'd have to generate a new code, your old code will not work if oeminfo was wiped.
8)Use dload with Service Firmware from androidhost.ru, regular update.zip does not work in dload mode.
And make sure the firmware you dload is newer than GPU Turbo firmware. (XLOADER needs to be 02, else you brick again)
Please note that you only have one shot at this... If you, for example, flash dload but forget to generate unlock code and don't have your own oeminfo flashed you will not be able to repair device without opening it up to get testpoint.

Hello
I do every thing on the tuto but i have 1 problem
I have no network it still no service
hello please advice! How do I unlock the bootloader at this point and do root with magisk? please describe step by step instructions or link to instructions. sorry because this thread must be here, but I didn't find anything current. I think it's better to get advice than to do wrong and then look for how to restore your phone from a broken state.
my build: Andoid 8.0.0 Emui 8.0.0 PRA-LX1 8.0.0.401 (C432)
Phone locked, FRP unlocked
Thank you very much

Huawei doesn't unlock bootloader's any more.
You'll have to find a pay service that supports your model.

In order to root device's Android unlocking device's boot-loader isn't a pre-requisite.
Rooting a phone's Android means giving user and/or applications administrative rights, will say unrestricted access to Android's system files.

Wrong... you can't flash a patched boot.img without an unlocked bootloader
the only way to root the device is with a Magisk_patched boot.img

You should carefully read instead of replying nonsense.
I don't understand English well. I don't understand it now. I think everyone writes something different. i need root via magisk to be able to connect google pay with credit card. so the bootloader only goes through the paid service? and then proceed to root?

You can only unlock bootloader with a paid service.
Once the bootloader is unlocked you can use magisk and patch and then flash a rooted boot.img
Instructions for making the patched boot.img are here > https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
you get the correct stock boot.img from a full firmware update.zip for your version
Bootloader Unlock Instructions found here > https://techelucid.com/unlock-bootloader-huawei/

Right after you root Android OS, Google Pay will stop working. How to bypass this in detail is explained here.

It's a misconception if people like you think the bootloader of a device has to be unlocked in order to root device's Android OS. These people just don't know what role the bootloader has, just don't know what rooting Android OS means.

Simply getting the code isn't enough you have to flash it see below and see the tutorial for dc unlocker here > https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/how-to/how-to-unlock-huawei-bootloader-removal-t3780903
Using your Unlock Code:
1. Turn off your phone, Boot your device into Fastboot mode with Vol down and power button.
2. CD to where you downloaded ADB/Fastboot Tools
Run these commands when inside ADB tools directory
a) fastboot devices. (your device should bee listed. If not reinstall drivers/reboot)
b) fastboot oem get-bootinfo (just to confirm everything is detected correctly
c) fastboot oem unlock 9x9x2x2x2x8x5x3x
3. Acknowledge the prompt on your phone. Device will be WIPED!
4. Once the wipe finishes it will take several minutes for phone to boot up. Do not panic. Once you See Huawei logo you are OK!

Yes you're right. I don't know exactly how it works and I don't understand it. But that's why I turned here and ask for advice on how to proceed. If I had knowledge, I wouldn't bother anyone to help me. I don't think this is anything new.

Yes there are a lot of versions and procedures for how to root them on the internet. Some don't work, others worked, but currently they don't either. Or there may be new better practices. For a person who does not have much knowledge, it is very difficult to choose the right one. If what you are saying is new and mainly functional, I will look and try to proceed

Excellent !!
We need your firmware version to get the correct ramdisk.img
look in settings / about phone for the firmware version or just post a screen shot of that screen
this is your file (I got it from your first post) > PRA-LX1 8.0.0.401 (C432) FullOTA-MF > https://pro-teammt.ru/en/online-fir...mware_model=PRA-LX1+8.0.0.401&firmware_page=0
download the update.zip (I'm downloading it also)
Next download the Huawei update extractor > https://firmwarecare.com/huawei-update-extractor-v0-9-9-5
I posted the guide here for using the extraction tool > https://nerdschalk.com/extract-huawei-firmware-update-app/
and then follow this guide to root the ramdisk.img
Huawei
Huawei devices using Kirin processors have a different partitioning method from most common devices. Magisk is usually installed to the boot partition of the device, however Huawei devices do not have this partition. Depending on what EMUI version your device is running, the instructions will be slightly different.
Obtain Stock Images
Huawei does not release official factory images, however most firmware zips can be downloaded from the Huawei Firmware Database. To extract images from UPDATE.APP in the zip, you have to use Huawei Update Extractor (Windows only!)
EMUI 8
For EMUI 8 devices, your device has a partition named ramdisk, which is where Magisk is going to be installed.
If you plan to use custom recoveries, simply follow the instructions for custom recovery and you’re all set.
If you plan not to use custom recoveries, you will have to extract RAMDISK.img from your firmware. Follow the instructions for boot image patching above, but use the RAMDISK.img file instead of a boot image.
To flash the patched image to your device, here is the fastboot command:
fastboot flash ramdisk /path/to/magisk_patched.img
Be aware you are flashing to ramdisk, not boot!

Boot Image Patching
You would want to choose this method if either your device does not have custom recoveries, your device is A/B and you don’t want to mix recovery and boot images, or your device is using system-as-root without A/B partitions.
To use this method, you are required to obtain a copy of the stock RAMDISK.img, which can be found by extracting OEM provided factory images or extracting from OTA update zips. If you are unable to obtain one yourself, you might be able to find it somewhere on the internet. The following instructions will guide you through the process after you have the copy of boot/recovery image.
Copy the RAMDISK.img to your device
Download and install the latest Magisk Manager
If you are patching a recovery image, manually check “Recovery Mode” in Advanced Settings!
Press Install → Install → Select and Patch a File, and select your stock RAMDISK.img file
Magisk Manager will patch the image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.img
Copy the patched image from your device to your PC. If you can’t find it via MTP, you can pull the file with ADB:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img
Flash the patched RAMDISK.img to your device and reboot. For most devices, here is the fastboot command:
fastboot flash ramdisk magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot /path/to/magisk_patched.img or
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/magisk_patched.img if you are patching a recovery image
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
now use fastboot reboot
at this point your phone should be rooted
I uploaded the patched ramdisk.img here if you have trouble > https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682890848
the unpatched RAMDISK.IMG is also their > https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=314978
You also have TWRP 3.11 available for your phone > https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962602140
it's ease to flash TWRP and then root your phone with a Magisk.zip in TWRP
it's also nice if you like to flash roms or make backups of your system and data

I did not find a download file or a link where I can download, so I download here
https://androidhost.ru/1iXE is it ok?
yes build number is PRA-LX1 8.0.0.401 (C432) Emui 8, Android 8
And what is the difference between when I run through that ramdisk.img or when I make a flash twrp and install magisk.zip??

I posted the patched ramdisk.img for you
all you need to do is copy it to your adb/fastboot folder and reboot your phone to fastboot mode and flash it
fastboot flash ramdisk magisk_patched.img
their is no difference in the end result, either method will work to Root your phone

I did exactly and just what you wrote. the flash completed without error, but I don't know what the result should have been. I don't even have root, magisk, I didn't know the change.

Install magisk manager if it's not in your app drawer
Greetings all, I have come to ask for advice on how to debrick my lg v60 version V600TM20n. First, how I ended up in this situation.
To begin, I followed this guide to unlock bootloader and root my phone then I followed this guide in an attempt to install a custom rom however, i did not get too far.
I tried to remove vbmeta verity as per the requirements of the form and in doing so input this line into my bootloader fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img with the file provided by this form I think this is where the issue I have is comming from but moving on.
I then attempted to download lineage os following the guide but it did not work and I was fed up by this point to I began the process of reverting everything I did. I downloaded SuperSu to deroot my device. After derooting my device I went to the bootloader and typed in fastboot oem lock, locking my device and dooming me.
In my attempts to escape from the hell I am currently in I downloaded LGUP v1.16.03 and v1.14 (I tried them both deleting the previous one before installing the new one) yet each time I was stuck with the this error code Error Code = 0x2000, Invalid command response when the progress bar reach 9%.
The dll i used is version 0.0.3.23 and the one provided by LGUP v.1.16.03, and the firmware I attempted to download was V600TM20n_02_TMO_US_OP_0111.kdz on LGUP it says V600TM20n oh and also I did try UPPERCUT, no resuts
Currently on my phone's download mode screen at the bottom in red it says Modified / E / L / RO / id : 3(NA2_US) I have also tried LGUP Cmd but same results
I have tried LG bridge but it says connecting and then no device found :/
I wish i could say i tried lg flash tool but i have no idea on how to use it
Possibly another big mistake (idk what im doin) I used the QFIL and restore the abl_a and abl_b to their original versions after locking the bootloader.
Please tell me if there is anything else I can do or if I now own a $300 brick. If I do have a $300 brick is there any value I can get from it to fund my walmart flip phone that I will have to buy?
