EDL Mode not working? Need urgent help!

Hi guys,
Recently did a big ****up with my device. Tried to unlock_critical which said already unlocked but wasnt in order to convert to 6x. Tried to oem lock again and im now locked out. Device doesnt boot and cant flash anything via fastboot.
I already figured i have to go to edl mode for flashing stock software, have opened my device now and tried to short the edl pins as explained in youtube videos.
However, no sign of this working! no light, nothing!
Im using manjaro linux which doesnt recognize the device only via adb or fastboot.
Already tried using virtualbox for miflash but i cant get the usb port to work with it.
Can you help me please?

In my case for EDL, i only need to unlock critical, then power + volume up

unlock critical does not work since the bootloader is locked and oem toggle cant be turned on since theres wrong software

you can to find a windows laptop or pc from your friends for a while ?? I do not think you can run correctly edl mode + all the necessary tools & files from Linux,after test points...
the device must be have all the necessary drivers (first disable driver signature) fastboot etc as you know...

I have the same issue, fastboot mode is useless to flash anything. Booting with adb into edl mode reboots phone normally.

Getting disconnected after a half minute in EDL mode.
Hello guys, I'm having a big problem, some day earlier the A2 started to bootloop and fastboot, adb wasn't working.
So I opened the mi A2, disconnected the battery cable and booted in edl mode but after 20 sec it got disconnected and again I short it and boot in edl and it disconnecting.
A help would be amazing. Thanks in advance.

Help unbricking xiaomi mi 9t pro think its hard bricked

Hi i unlocked my bootloader earlier today, worked fine. Got twrp, fine. then tried to copy roms to my phone to flash but couldn't see the phone so rebooted, then twrp wouldn't load was stuck in fastboot.
So tried to miflash back to stock rom and now device is not even showing fastboot just black screen. Can see qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 in device manager when device is connected.
What files do i need to unbrick? i think when i went back to recovery i installed davinci and not raphael. Would this have bricked? How to unbrick? I need EDL?
Model is: M1903F11G
Any help, thanks.

My phone is still in edl mode it shows as a COM port in my pc. I really need help I cannot do anything. I tried to flash it in MiFlash and it gives an error every time. Please help me!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I NEED HELP IMMIDIETELY PLEASE

The app works just fine... Also why are you trying to use a Xiaomi flash tool on an Asus device?

Get out of EDL mode with vol- vol+ power all three together.

Have you tried doing the process with the correct drivers installed? (I have not done this method, but it could be driver related) See here for drivers
EDIT: at the bottom of your EDL thread it does state you need the Qualcom drivers installed, not sure if they're the same as the ones i linked to, but the ones in that thread are here
Also, this post may be of some use to you, might wanna read the rest of the thread too for tips...
'I read somewhere that you must start the EDL unlocking process as soon as you run the fastboot command to boot it into EDL mode. It wouldn't run correctly for me at first, but then I rebooted into fastboot, ran the enter dload command, then immediately ran the unlocker (or if it fails because your device hasn't entered EDL mode just yet, keep spamming it).
I have no idea why that's the case but it worked for me.'

Phone hardbricked, any chance at recovering it?

So my phone's stuck in fastboot mode, oem unlocking and usb debugging is off, recovery mode doesn't work, and a custom rom was installed when bootloader was turned off, so is there any way to at least get the phone back to stock, or is it just useless now?

Since your phone is Qualcomm based, then you should have EDL mode in your device.
Have you tried it? There are multiple ways to boot into EDL mode, like adb reboot edl or the EDL cable method.
I don't know if it is unlocked by default on your device or you need unlock key first though.
If it requires unlocking then you have to send your device to an authorized service center, not just any service center.
If it doesn't then you can easily find guides on the internet about how to unbrick your phone with EDL mode.
Goodluck.

Yeah I've tried entering it with the command, didn't work, but I suppose I could send it to a service center for it to get unlocked. I've heard other people have their phones enter EDL mode and other people saying it's basically useless though which was why I was slightly scared about entering it but I'll give it a shot, thanks.

EDL mode doesn't have a UI, if you enter the command and get black screen instead chances are that you're already in EDL mode.
Similarly if you turn off the device and leave it like that for a couple of minutes, some Qualcomm devices can detect that it's bricked and enter EDL mode automatically.
Alternatively you can just make your own EDL cable to force your device to boot to EDL mode, follow this thread here.
Or just get an EDL cable, they're cheap really.

EDL mode is very low level and very powerful, you can literally do anything to your device with EDL mode the sky is the limit. However it requires special Qualcomm EDL tools which depend on your Qualcomm type (sahara or firehose) and correct driver.
Beware that EDL mode commands are very powerful and can mess anything beyond repair. So be careful with whatever command you use while in this mode if you're not sure what it does then don't use it. And send it to an authorized service center instead.
You can extract data with EDL mode and I recommend doing that before flashing anything.

Be careful of unofficial EDL tools, most are just trojans for the desperate.
The official tools are already on the internet. I don't recall the exact name but i think it was something along "QSPT" or something. Sorry for not being of much help.
I'd have searched for the correct tools for you, but it's getting really late here.

Yeah for the first part when I did the command it just said "unknown command" so nothing happened, but yeah I was thinking about getting an EDL cable, would any cable work or would only a specific type work? Also how would you know what the qualcomm type is?

I worded this poorly my bad, what I meant is sahara and firehose are actually firmware boot type and it doesn't matter what tool you use as long as it is meant for Qualcomm devices.
Any EDL cable should work, and as for the tool it's QPST or QFIL.
As for the driver: Qualcomm driver link.
They say QFIL is much easier to deal with as it is standalone, anyway both work similarly.
As for the deep flashing process, you can follow this guide here.
The guide has updated driver, QPST and QFIL links.
For the firmware images I only found this one and it doesn't have Qualcomm firmware in it, in case you need Qualcomm firmware you need to follow the guide I gave you to extract the firmware from another RP2. Here is a video guide on how to extract qualcomm firmware with QFIL.
EVERYTHING I JUST SAID IS TESTED, HOWEVER I DON'T HOLD ANY RESPONSIBILITY SHOULD YOU PREM-BRICK YOUR PHONE.
Hope i helped. And goodluck.

I forgot to tell you how to use EDL mode to extract data, here is an article.
It might be hard to understand at first but you'll get used to it. It's completely safe so you can mess around as much as you want, Don't click random buttons though. Note that: The openpst tool isn't a flashing tool and only meant to communicate with Qualcomm devices in EDL mode.
Here is a different method, although it's meant for Xiaomi devices it's still generally for Qualcomm devices.
Just follow step 7 only. Obviously you won't be using MiFlash nor flash a MIUI ROM.
After flashing the ROM flash a custom recovery to backup your data.
Then delete all data including dalvik cache.
I can't confirm if those methods are tested so follow them on your own risk. However I suggest trying the second method since the extracted data from the first method would be encrypted therefore useless. Unless you know how to decrypt it.

HELP!!!!!! Any unbrick tool for cn rom?

Hey guys,
I need some assistance as I am not able to unbrick my RM3 with unbrick tool. Multiple times I have already got it worked, flashed many times, but this time I am not getting my phone started. Normally, I use the NON-EU unbrick tool, all goes well but this time, it says THIS DEVICE CAN'T BE TRUSTED, WON'T BOOT UP. After multiple tries, I tried that EU unbrick too as well, but the same result.
I think I have locked the bootloader while on CN Rom 5.14, most probably this is the only reason, I was doing some tweakings and got it bricked. Anyone here who can tell me if there is such thing named CN Unbrick tool or any other way around to get it worked. I can enter FASTBOOT and EDL Mode but recovery mode showing black screen and adb is not recognising as didn't enable USB debugging. please help...
