Hi,

My OP6 is stuck and keeps restarting. I have flashed all stock roms via MSMtool from hydrogen OS to Oxygen OS 10.3.5. Even tried fastboot rom flashing with no luck.

Flashed stock OS via twrp still nothing.

I do have a backup of my EFS partition but flashing that via fastboot/terminal makes no difference in any stock OS.

I have searched every topic related to this particular error but didn't find any fix yet so was forced to create a new thread.

Need urgent help, it has been 3 months now and nothing worked. Few times my phone did boot properly with IMEI and other details but after few days same error( Don't remember what I did which fixed earlier)

Also, I did visit the repair shop but they didn't find any motherboard or IC damage whatsoever.

Experts/Mods need your help.

If you've efs backup which is uncorrupted, modemst1 & modemst2, flash modem files via fastboot, flash twrp image, flash twrp zip installer, reboot to recovery, wipe all partitions & flash OOS and simply reboot after flash, if your efs backup is not corrupted already, it should boot up fine

Unfortunately it didn't work for me. Now when I'm flashing oos 9 and above, 10.3.5 via MSMtool from unbrick thread..the OEM unlocking is greyed and can't unlock bootloader.

I hope I find a solution as nothing is working, how to verify if the EFS backup I have is not corrupted? Also, I do have a QCN file for IMEI backup will that be of any use?

Have you tried 5.1.5 oos? Even if it is an old android version, it should save your device and as far as I know it does not change anything if the bootloader is off.

Pls need help on this. Still not able to fix it.

It has been months now. How to check if EFS partition is corrupted or not?

Yes I did. After that device went into crash dump mode.

How to resolve that now. Not sure if everything was restored.
Press power + vol up key to get out of crash dump mode
Than restart device into recovery mode by power + vol down key
Factory reset , wipe everything option and reboot

I went to fastboot and then recovery. Wiped and resettled as you asked. But again going in crashdump mode.

Attaching the error details.
Modem is crashing, are you sure you've properly fastboot modemst1 & modemst2 files?
How you pushed these modem files using fastboot? What command exactly?

I have tried fastboot flash modemst1 modemst1.bin
And same for modemst2.

Also, I tried flashing EFS partition backup via twrp using restore option.

Your bootloader is locked???? :eek:
Try to unlock it using command "fastboot oem unlock" , without commas in fastboot mode
See if it unlocks it?
I used msmtool as asked. So bootloader was locked. Since I'm not able to boot in OS due to crashdump error not able to enable OEM unlocking.

So kinda stuck here.
