OTA update bricked phone - Stock ROM TA-1085 dual sim, impossible to find .nb0 file?

[drewski429]

I have the OST software up and running, but cannot find a stock ROM on the internets for the TA-1085. Where can I find it? Must be a .nb0 file, apparently, to work. I'm stuck on the download mode screen, and fastboot/adb methods have all failed to restore or reset to factory.

First are you bootloader unlocked?

If so, you can use NOST using the CTL-256A-0-00WW-B07 - September '18 firmware (Android 8.1). From here https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=299213.

The other firmware CTL-345A-0-00WW-B01 - December '18 (Android 9.0) and CTL-351F-0-00WW-B04 - March '19 has a new sparse so you can't use NOST to flash. You have to use Hikari's new sparse script to flash to a more recent rom. You can find the thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-7-plus/how-to/guide-workaround-flashing-sparse-t3906070

A friend also got his 7.1 bricked, by the update v3.54h

Can he skip the update? Or he's never gonna recieve another update (android 10 for example) till he install that one?
