Just to add in that you will also need to have your cable plugged in, I never managed to get into EDL (9008) Mode without. It could be that it is possible but the timming is tighter due to not having to do any cable checking/comms as it boots up. So ensure it is plugged into your computer to up...

It should be pretty quick, in my experience. Any time it took more than a few seconds it would usually fail with the Sahara error. From the moment Windows Device Manager registers the device, try to have QFIL loaded and ready to go. That said, I still found it wouldn't connect all the time, and...

Thank you for the data point... I'll do a bit more digging later on. For others: this image is what you should see, I should have posted one too, thank you Einsteindks

Just to add something that is interesting: if you try to use QFIL when you have a folder shared from your Host OS to your Guest OS, this can cause 0x00 (NUL) byte prefixing to some messages going over the Sahara protocol. This is really odd, but whilst I had a Shared Folder (in VirtualBox, seen...

Incorrectly referred to EDL than Download mode HI all, I just wanted to share my experience of this that may give some extra help for others going through this. But first, I'd not have got anywhere if it wasn't for a bunch of you on here, so many thanks to Xsavi, Ainz_Ooal_Gown, DLS123...
