Razer is bricked, please help. Need complete emmc image.

[slavix66]

Bricked my razer a while back reinstalling the stock firmware. The cable unplugged from the phone and corrupted the storage. Cant enter recovery or bootloader. But according to some resources that i came across while doing some research, im able to interface with the device using the qualcomm hs-usb protocol. With that im able to directly access the devices storage. If anyone is willing to help, what id need is for you to wipe your device clean, and run these commands

Adb shell
Su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/storage/sdcard1/backup.img bs=512 count=30535646

From there id be able to delete the partition table, and copy the devices storage config from the backup. Once thats established id be able to access bootloader recovery and system.

If anyone is able to help, id really appreciate it
Thanks

Nope nothing yet, we need either emmc development files for the phone, no likely to find. And with the qualcomm tools the corrupted storage can be re partitioned and again be written to.

However if someone with a working razer was to wipe the device clean, and dump partition info. Then the images can be written to the device, over writing the damaged partitions.

Your razer is in a state known as EDL. I5s the qualcomm Emergency Download mode. Used to program your emmc storage. That is exactly what the few of us are experiencing, however with no owners of the device willing to share a default wiped image of their emmc, there is no way for us to remap the partitions appropriately in order to once again flash and access the bootloader.

If you could let me know how one would do it I might be able to help you before I sell my razer phone

Thank you, if you restore your phone back to factory settings, connect to pc via adb and run the command in the initial post. That command should (from what i read elsewhere) create a full backup of the partitions on your device. If you are successfull and are able to share through some cloud storage such as dropbox or something of the like, i should be able to restore my razer.

im guessing i will need root to run those commands, atm i am performing a full nandroid backup of everything before i do the reset, my phone is rooted and has twrp installed on both a and b partions

 

[dtronics]

extracted the files, the img is 13GB so gonna compress it before i upload it, hopefully it should work but will have to be tomorrow now

 

[dtronics]

uploading the file now

 

[dtronics]

ok done, heres the link

http://www.mediafire.com/file/j3j6pp3ym161t0q/backup.7z/file

you will need 7zip to extract it which you can get from here for free www.7zip.org

hi xda member dtronics has very kindly uploaded a complete back up approx 13gb
file.do you know how to use this to restore/repair our phones?.

 

[slavix66]

Excellent, i will take a look and see if i can push it to the device in edl mode. The thread has been dead for a while, so it may take a while for me to review all the previous resources that led me to the point where i had posted this thread.

Thank you so very much!

This is the article I was using to attempt salvaging my phone.

https://www.droidsavvy.com/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/

Unfortunately I am in the EDL mode where my device storage is not recognized, so I am unable to tamper with it until the razer phones flash programmer or firehose files have been leaked.

Hopefully someone else may have success resurrecting their device using dtronic's backup and or with the information provided in the link.

Thank you any and all of you who have contributed or followed the thread. But my trail ends here unless the flash programmer files are somehow made available.

 

[parky169]

Unfortunately sadly I too couldn't work out a way to flash or recover razer phone with the upload from dtronics.thank you to all involved,but I think it's time to chuck the old razer in the bin.this is my first ever failure or perm bricked device since I started rooting etc with the HTC wildfire.
?

 

[sinkoo1979]

Tried Klinik handphone medan (google search). They have firehose for msm 8998 but I removed the usb cable when it was flashing (didn't look like it was flashing anything) now the computer don't even recognize the phone....
getting this message "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)".

I wouldnt know for sure. But my understanding is the programmer files (firehose or sahara files) arent stored on the device. They are used by programmer interface to identify the processor as well as the storage media, possibly all harware for the device. If this were a more mainstream device the programmer files may have been available to us through a leak. Only way to fix it at this point would be to bring it to a shop, they should have access to the files one way or another.

I don't know, I don't have my razer phone any more, went and got myself a OnePlus 6t, the emmc file is still available to download from my post and still looking for people to mirror the file
