Zenfone ZE554KL bricking issue - Asus Zenfone 4

My Zenfone 4 ZE554KL is bricked and only shows on windows Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008, after I tried to debrick it from fastboot, using a firmware raw image, and putting the incorrect fastboot reboot command
"fastboot reboot emergency" and now is after I plug the usb stick it shows on windows as the QComm Com port but I tried to see guides, read everything, tried to use QFIL to check if something works and QPST
But still without success
Current phone status is a black screen and nothing else, already attempted to hold power, some few sequences with Vol Up, Vol Down still nothing.

Device bricked - Qualcomm 9008 port up but ADB does not detect the device

Hello everyone,
It seems that my worst nightmares came up, and got my device bricked while trying to flash it to a stock ROM (had a custom multilingual ROM installed by the chinese seller), and now it's in a strange stage, as Windows detects the Qualcomm port, but adb can't see it.
The adb devices list is in blank, and QPST detects everything, but when trying to flash the device, the error message on the screenshot appears.
Also tried to do it with MiFlash, but didn't worked too.
Any idea about how to solve this?
Thank you in advance for your help.
P.D.: My device is in black screen, so no menu or anything.
P.D.2: Already downloaded the Android SDK in order to try it's ADB, but it didn't worked too.
Now after some research, I found out that the "ADB interface" is not showing in Windows device manager
I tried to install it manually, but can't find a way to get it working, and after the flash, USB debugging was set on, so can't figure out what could be happening...
Is it possible it's completely dead?
Any idea?
Just to say that I have tried multiple combinations while plugging the device to the PC, and didn't worked...
I mean, the PC seems to react, but always with the same end, only shows the Qualcomm port 9008, nothing about the adb...
Getting out of ideas, anyone more has some?
did you start the tool with admin rights?

Yeah, I already started the cmd with admin rights, but the problem is that adb does not works, as the device is not turning on.
As you can check in my first post, in the screenshot, after running the "adb devices" command, it doesn't gives any kind of error, just returns a blank list.

adb will never recognized it, in 9008 mode or it's called EDL, the only program that recognized the port is QFIL / Miflash. if you get an error when flashing you must reset your phone again to repeat the process by pressing power button for a couple seconds. if your bootloader already unlocked that must be simpler to do, just press power button for a couple minutes until shor vibration then press vol up + vol down and connect to usb at the same time..

Thanks for the info, I've tried the vol + and vol- buttons after the short vibration, and the PC does not detect the device...
Is it there any other way to get the device detected by the PC?
Actually, the only thing the device does, is the following:
After pressing the PWR button for around 5-7 seconds, it makes a short vibration and the notifications led makes a flash in green colour, but nothing more... If you keep pressing it, around 7-8 later, it makes a litte bigger vibration and a flash on green too... And if you continue, it does on, and on, and on...
Any idea? Anyone told me about getting a Xiaomi Deep flash cable, but I'm not sure about if that will work or not...

i've already tried xiaomi deep flash cable, and its work on my z2 plus, that's how to force phone into 9008 mode.. and also, dont add space between folder names where your firmware files there or there will always sahara fail
Hey man!
I had the same Problem!
Sahara error, no reaction from device, black screen, port recognized in qfil etc.
I found out that this behaviour of the device means, that it is in EDL-mode.
what helped ma was:
1) Unplug everything.
2) Set up the QFIL Tool completely, but do not hit "Download Content".
3) Try to "reboot" the Zuk Z2 Pro by pressing the power button for several seconds. Kind of resets everything.
4) Plug in USB
5) execute: "adb reboot edl" via adb
6) unplug USB
7) plug in USB and immediately (within a second!) hit the "Download Content" buton, just after it is clickable.
8) dowload should start without sahara error
Hope it works! :good:
Well, finally, I talked with the aftersales dpt from the shop where I got the device, and returned it, and incredibly it seems it was defective.
The guy from the tech dpt said that it wasn't supposed to die that way, so they returned me a brand new device, and fortunately it's up to date with ZUK's last official ROM.
Thank you everyone for your ideas and help, now I can enjoy this great device
My Zuk Z2 plus got stuck after TWRP, I need help badly.

I will tell my issue
I bought this device this July month, I was encouraged seeing you guys did a lot of flashing, I thought I could flash myself but it became a nightmare now.
I am not that much technical so please bare my usage of words below, but I need a real help.
I was doing the basic TWRP for getting the AICP ROM 12.1 but after wiping the data from TWRP my device doesnt get recognized for the Sideload and I did whatever I can but it doesnt detect my phone, so I am having a screen with Start "Green" which is showing the device status as unlocked and when I click on Recovery it goes to the Zuk logo and doesn't have any sign after that.. stuck really
I tried using QFIL but my device detects as 900H but not 9008 also adb doesn't detect my device at all after this.
I think I really did a hard brick of my device.
I dont want to loose hope, I want your help really badly.
For those of you who had the same problem don't give up! I was in that same situation and I solved by putting my phone on EDL via this method
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m44xKog-dI
After plugging the phone for the second time and QFIL recognize as EDL mode I clicked on download content as fast as I could so it started to flash the ROM that I spent like 10h trying to figure a way to do it lol. Anyways, the procedure is the same as putting into EDL via adb fastboot, the only difference is that you make it through a "fake" deep flash cable as that guy in the video shows.

Qualcomm 9008 mode

i tried to figure out how to enter into download or qualcomm mode 9008 by just removing the battery and connecting it to usb.
by this can we create a package for QFIL flashing or any other qualcomm tools just to debrick our device.?

Hello,
I think you haven't found this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/fix-fix-qhusbbulk-cm12-t3059518
As for how to boot into EDL mode, you can check this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/an.../guide-how-to-reboot-to-edl-fastboot-t3394292
Not sure it will work though...
Some phone requires you to press volume up or down and plug the battery and things like that. Not sure it will work either...
Good luck...

Bricked Xiaomi MI5

Hello everyone.
Yesterday while i was trying to install a new rom in my MI5 I bricked my phone.
I wiped the system, data, cache and kernel cache, then, as a mistake I rebooted my phone and all of a sudden it turned black and I couldn't go to the recovery or fastboot.
Now the phone is just black, no response trying to boot or go to recovery\fastboot. When I put to charger theres no LED LIGHT.
So I installed the adb drivers, installed MiFlash, and the computer recognized the phone as QualComm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 COM4.
Then I installed a fastboot rom into the phone using MiFlash, it said flash done and successful.
But, it keeps freezed in a black screen.
Should I just wait for a miracle or theres another option?
My PC still recognizes the phone as QualComm HS USB QDLoader 9008 COM 4.
Thanks in advance.
// EDIT (SOLVED)
Ok so now it booted with the fastboot ROM I flashed.
As I see, after the flash it takes hours to boot. I just went home, dropped the phone in the bed, then I pressed Vol up+Vol down and power button at the same time for two minutes and worked.

Hard Bricked 4x

Hi,
I have a following problem with my Redmi 4X. I tried to flash new rom and reboot my phone on twrp. When the phone shut down nothing happens anymore just black screen. No fastboot or recovery mode. When I contact the phone to Windows pc it shows in device manager: Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E (COM20). I have tried to flash new rom with QFIL and Miflash (tried to change the driver to Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008).
With QFIL the error is: Download Fail: Switch to EDL FailFailed to switch to Emergency Download mode.
With Miflash the error is: Cannot receive hello packet. MiFlash is trying to reset status!
Any suggestions?

Already tried that. Doesn't seem to change a thing.
Shouldn't it turn the driver to "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" after test point method?
This is what shows in command prompt:
C:\Windows\system32>adb reboot edl
error: device '(null)' not found
C:\Windows\system32>adb devices
List of devices attached
C:\Windows\system32>

After the test point method you will see a new "9008" device in the Device Manager.
Then all of the above commands will be completely irrelevant and useless.
In the 9008 mode use MiFlash, not QFIL/QPST, to reflash your phone.
Cheers!
The test points seems to change nothing. I think that after the " adb devices" command I should see my device listed but that is not the case and therefore impossible to flash rom. Somehow I should be able to change the "900E mode" to "9008 mode" without changing the driver manually and I think the test point method should do just that.
Here is video of what I have tried to do. If someone could point out what to do differently to get the flash work I would be very grateful.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1aOkb3FCBzanMUW3WSdyuxyQO-33rdsBv
Windows 10 will not accept the 9008 driver because the driversignature ist not signed from Microsoft.
If you will unbrick it with Windows 10 64bit look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2d8KEruHWPg
and here: https://www.maketecheasier.com/install-unsigned-drivers-windows10/
Had allready done that also. Gave it another try without success

Is the Qualcomm 9008 driver now installed?
Did you start the mi-flash tool with administrator privileges?
I installed the Qualcomm drivers but device manager still shows 900E driver unless I manually change it to 9008.
edit:
I finally succeeded with test point method. Now flashing. Im so grateful to you ConradB.

Thank you buddy .. Your 4 years old post help me to turn on my hard brick redmi 4x.
I don't know the actual reason of hard brick but The situation was my phone was in condition like
1. Possible to go in fastboot mode
2. When turning on there is only mi logo for fraction of second.
I tried test point method as described . It turned on in one attempt..I just want to add something. I face some issues after test point flashing . So I just flash miui again . Then It's working perfectly fine. After Test point flash check your battery. Maybe fully drained. Just charge it and turn it on..
I am posting this just for Information..

Xiaomi mi 8 se HARD BRICKED - No response when connecting to PC

I have been using the phone for almost two years, without any problem, with a ROM from xiaomi.eu.
One day the phone suddenly went off, and I couldn't turn it on again. When I plugged it into the PC it recognized it as QLoader HS-USB 9008. I tried to flash another ROM but could not go into fastboot mode.
I decided to open it and unplug the battery, in case it was still on and without a screen, and when I reassembled it, I was able to go into fastboot mode and flash. MiFlash never gave the termination notice, and since then the phone has not responded, the computer does not recognize it, nor does it react to anything (it no longer recognizes it as QLoader HS-USB 9008). I've tried an EDL cable to do deep flash, but it doesn't work either.
I have read that there are some test points to start EDL mode, but I don't know if it will work. Do you know if it would work for this case? I also haven't managed to find a good manual to do this.
Any other idea?
Thank you very in advance.
