Hey all.
I tried getting the Fastboot rom onto my phone but nothing works. I keep getting errors like **FAILED (Error reading sparse file)**
At this point I don't know what to do, I might go to Xiaomi to show them it and possibly get them to do something about it.
EDIT!!!:
I fixed it, changed folder name to x and worked. Thanks to NOSS8 for trying to help

Check here that everything is correct or use the bat file included in the Fastboot rom.

Post the Miflash log (Miflash/log folder).
Sure.
Post the largest log in size.

For some reason it didn't post.
I'll just put it on mediafire.

Here is a step by step guide on how to flash the stock rom with QFIL and by extension any image.
Download and install the Qualcomm drivers from here
Download either of the firmware from here
Download the support files (Firehose/rawprogram0.xml/patch0.xml) here
Extract the firmware and support files to the same folder so you can easily access them like your desktop
Download and install QPST from here
Open the QFIL application (Find it in your start menu)
In the "Select Build Type" field select Flat Build
In the "Select Programmer" field navigate to the folder you extracted the firmware and support files to and select the prog_emmc_firehose_8909.mbn file
Select the "Load XML" button and navigate to the folder you extracted the firmware and support files to and select the rawprogram0.xml and then the patch0.xml when prompted.
Plug in your tablet
Run the following adb command "adb reboot edl" (Now the screen should be blank but the led light should be red)
If the text at the top of the QFIL application says "No Port Available" click the "Select Port..." option and pick your device. If your device isn't showing up there you didn't install the drivers properly.
Click the Download Button to begin flashing your device
So the above explains how to flash everything if you want to flash individual partitions you can edit your rawprogram0.xml to only include the ones you want. (patch0.xml stays the same) I have linked below 2 examples, one of them flashes just a boot.img and one that just flashes the recovery.img. But you aren't limited to those.
Recovery
Boot
Mine just in case
Awesome, thanks for this post! it will really help us in upcoming projects!
Managed to revive my phone using the B12 files but it crashes after completing system.img, I think the problem is userdata.img, my phone boots but I lost the imei and I don't know how to get it back, I'm still trying.
ZTE 971 not recognized by either QPST or QFIL
Thanks for all the detailed instructions. But my ZTE 971 is not visible to either qpst or qfil eventhough the phone shows in windows 8.1. In the Developer Options menu, I noticed Select USB Configuration, RNDIS (USB ethernet) option cannot be enabled. I wonder if this has anything to do with it. OEM unlocking, USB debbugging are already selected. Any suggestions, please? Thanks.
ps. I live in Turkey. I got this phone last year from AT&T and have unlocked the sim.
My PC is not detecting my ZTE MAVEN 3
I have installed all drives but still facing the issue. I am using it on Windows 10.
I flashed the B13 (ZPST tool shows my device as B13) with the QFIL like your guide says and it says all completed successfully and finishes, but now my phone went from only being able to boot EDL + FTM + Recovery, to now booting directly to EDL mode, which obviously means this guide completely screwed up my phone... Thanks.
Mega says that link for the driver is invalid, but the driver is included in your QPST download anyway.

No need TWRP or O.F for rooting.
Root***:
1. Find or redownload the TGZ file for your current ROM or other rom.
2. Browse inside the zip file and find boot.img under the images folder
3. Copy this file to a temporary location in your PC first, and then transfer it to your phone
4. Install the desired version of Magisk app
5. Run the app and choose Install under Magisk
6. Choose Select and Patch a File, then select the boot.img that was transferred earlier
7. A process will run and create a new .img file in the same folder where the original one was
8. Transfer the new file to your PC in the same directory where fastboot.exe is located
9. Open a command prompt window in that same directory
10. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode and connect to PC, USB2.0 port. Check for connection by running command fastboot devices.
11. Run the command fastboot flash boot_ab magiskXXXX.img
Once it's completed, run command fastboot reboot and the phone should boot and be rooted.
***
This is the most common current method.
On some devices, vbmeta,disable-verity are required.

I am also having issues like OP
My phone Redmi 9 M2003J15SS Miui 13.0.2 (Stable)
Already patched via magisk and copy that image to pc and run fastboot with exact command..
But after sending some files, it says
Sending 'boot_ab' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.538s]
Writing 'boot_ab' FAILED (remote: 'This partition doesn't exist')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Can you help with that?
Do I have to open a new thread? I am new here. I just see your valuable post and seems the same scenario as OP except for the model number.
Also can you help me to provide these On some devices, vbmeta,disable-verity are required. if needed.
This is my first time and i am a noob
Use this command but it looks like you have to use vbmeta,disable-verity.
