[GUIDE] Unbrick Tool for OnePlus 5 with OOS 9.0.9 & OOS 9.0.11 (Untouched full stock)

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)

METHOD

This method is easy to use and flashes OxygenOS 5.1.7 and OxygenOS 9.0.9 on your phone. It wipes all your data and restores all partitions to stock. It will work in any condition unless it is a hardware damage.

Step 1 :- DOWNLOADS :-
OOS 9.0.9: https://mega.nz/file/O4dGFI4b#mbqq8VqUiPwoN85ajTV-H2pDNccD58-ccejQnTQHIBE
OOS 9.0.11:https://mega.nz/file/ekUURaII#FPoezmYL1hPJUkb2Hf90ZqW07iEaCza6etnTPSKJOos
Step 2 :- Extract Drivers and Recovery Tool files on Desktop.
Step 3 :- If you are using Windows other than Windows XP,turn off Driver Signature Enforcement.To do so,follow this guide :- http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how-...igned-drivers/
Step 4 :- Press the power button for 40 seconds to turn off the phone.
Step 5 :- Press only volume up button for 10 seconds and while keeping it pressed,connect your phone to PC.Keep volume up pressed till your device shows in device manager as [Unknown Device,QHUSB_BULK (under Unknown Devices) or Qualcomm HS USB ...... (under COMs and Ports)].
Step 6 :- Right Click on your device in the device manager and select Update Device Software. Choose the .inf file manually from x86 or x64 folder as the case implies and select Qualcomm 9008 from the listed devices.If you are unable to see 9008,see the end of post for various other methods to show Qualcomm 9008.
Step 7 :- When the device shows as Qualcomm 9008 ,go to the extracted Recovery Package and run the MSM Download Tool as administrator.
Step 8 :- Click start at top left corner and wait for it to finish (green text will come).
Step 9 :- Disconnect phone from PC and boot into system.



How to Make the device show as Qualcomm 9008​

1.) Make sure driver signature enforcement is disabled.
2.) Try these drivers,one of them might work too :-

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982086990168

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24349802275800173
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24349802275800171
3.)Download this :- http://www.mediafire.com/file/4aqwyi3g1d6wc67/Qualcomm+1.00.11.rar
Keep phone disconnected from PC.
Open the folder "qc" and install the Test Certificate in the following Stores: Trusted Root, Trusted Publisher, Third-Party Root and Personal
Run the Qualcomm setup wizard (also located in the qc folder)
When completed, restart your PC again with Driver Signature Disabled. (Optional but preferred)
The driver should now automatically install. If not, go to device manager and right click "Unknown Device" and click "Update Driver" Search up the QC folder and press ok. The driver should now install.



P.S.: I found the fix for bootloader menu which was changing after flashing through this tool. Just flash the zip in the recovery from the link below after flashing the rom through this tool, and you are good to go.

Please boot your device, set it up then go back to recovery and flash this file.

NOTE: When the tool gives the "Sahara error", DON'T DISCONNECT THE PHONE from your PC, and press vol up and power button. It maybe seem stupid as a fix but generally it works.


IMP NOTE: There is a quick update, recently I also got stuck at param processing while flashing my device. So uploading the tool which works well. Here is the link. https://mega.nz/file/C1Nw3Cyb#znHfATPuRN4rAy1ZnDO4kMcftEkQ1P6enGxRGSiBh2E

IMP NOTE: There is a quick update, the tool is updated with latest TREBLE OS.

Don't worry about green led light while flashing with tool its normal behavior, and about error...maybe because of bad download for sure,try attaching your phone again or check the drivers again...and look at the firs comment - seems like tool is working fine.

Yes, i ran it as administrator. M phone was totally bricked, i only got signal in him when i connected at the PC. But i always had this error :T I downloaded it at least 5 times, and got always the same results.

I did it all, believe me. Reinstalled the drivers multiples times, differents PCS, differents USB ports... I think it was a hardware problem.

I already sent my phone to RMA, so i think it was solved, one way or another :) But thanks for your replies

Hi, thanks for making this guide with such clear instructions!

I've done every step according to the guide, but I keep facing this issue:

Just to clarify I did run it as administrator.

Mate she worked a charm! I wasn't bricked but wanted to restore to full stock after issues with open beta rims, firmware and AOSP roms. Was the simplest way to achieve a fresh start
