[GUIDE] Mega Unbrick Guide for A Hard Bricked OnePlus 5

[vasu97]

Hello Everyone !!​

=>A hard bricked OP5 has nothing but a black screen (nothing ever comes on the screen, not even a boot logo), it might vibrate when a power button is pressed and held for 20 seconds, has no Recovery partition, no adb mode, and no fastboot partition (It might be a flickering OnePlus logo). The device might be detected in Linux and you might be able to even send commands to it. In Windows, the bricked OP5 should be detected as QHUSB_BULK,Unknown Device,Qualcomm something. You might have a bricked OP5 as a result of flashing a kernel meant for a different device (or a ROM meant for another device that included a kernel), tinkering with the boot logo or bootloader, or your attempt of unlocking the bootloader resulted in corrupting the boot partition. Most of the times, it is needed because OEM Unlocking is disabled, and phone can't boot and no recovery.

=>The solution for OP5 hardbrick is similar to OP3,OP3T- you just need a Qualcomm driver and a recovery package.it'll help to get out from one of the most weird state of the phone.(file is exact file from OnePlus)

Holy crap! I literally spent the last 12 hours trying to get my phone fixed. This was the only solution. Thank you so much!!!

If anyone had problems with the MSM tool "Sahara communication failed," unplug your phone. Turn it off by holding the power button for a while. Hold the power up for 10 seconds, then keep holding the volume up and plug your phone in to the PC. The MSM tool should automatically detect and restore your phone.
