Biden2020prez How do I backup in qfil? And what do you mean by better?
Biden2020prez How do I backup in qfil? And what do you mean by better?
Open QFIL and connect your device to your computer
Select "Rawprogram0.xml" and "Patch0.xml" under "Programmer Path"
Click on "Load XML" button
Click on "Rawprogram0.xml" and then click on "Edit" button
Locate the files that you want to exclude from the backup and delete them from the "Rawprogram0.xml" file
Repeat step 5 for "Patch0.xml" file
Click on "Save" button
Click on "Download" button to start the firmware backup process
Biden2020prez Heh. Ironically, I feel like edl is simpler.
FliphoneBochur try pip install pycryptodome, and for good measure pip install the rest of those listed in the requirements.txt
aapost I tried pip install pylzma
and I got a this megillah:

I tried running the backup command again and I got the exact same output as before:
No module named 'Crypto'
Qualcomm Sahara / Firehose Client V3.60 (c) B.Kerler 2018-2022.
main - Using loader prog_emmc_firehose_8909.mbn ...

main - Device detected :)
FliphoneBochur Yeah.. looks like some OS specific needs again, trying to compile something and it needs some tools for building installed. Try to see if you can find what it is asking for and then run the command again after installing it.
The deprecation warning part should be ignore-able.
FliphoneBochur you can also try running pip install pycryptodome first just to try to get that module message out of the way. You will likely still need you to go back and install the rest of them though.

if you install Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater, seems u wont have an issue, according to the error message.
lgexalter1 just to break that down,
the pip install -r requirements.txt does the same thing as installing them 1 by 1, but all at once. Sometimes it is clearer what module is having issues when you go 1 by 1.
The other command you can give a go, couldn't hurt, but I think it only loads the Loaders repository, and you already have the firehose set up and it seems to see it, so i think you are likely already good there.
git submodule update --init --recursive

[Login to see the link] [Login to see the link] I got edl working now. Could one of you please send a firmware, so I could try it out? Thanks!
FliphoneBochur Okay Soon.
I'm at the same stage [Login to see the link] is, except I own a F119 variant, and just tried reflashing it with kazuna's fw from their update endpoint.
The phone "is there" aka, if you manage to skip setup wizard and all that fuss, the underlying is working, it looks like they might have botched something in the file they are serving (or QFIL is doing some kind of damage) kernel wise, because to me, it just looks like a bad display driver.
If anyone has a F119 dump, even just boot.img only, I'd be grateful
I'm just waiting for someone to send anything. Anything that could get the phone to work. If it remains a brick it won't be the worst thing ever because I backed up his files and I have a spare phone, but I'd rather unbrick it.
If [Login to see the link], [Login to see the link], or anybody else who has the firmware would be able to send it, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
Meh, managed to restore F119 from a QFIL backup from the same device.
I've started messing with it because I manage to get the debugging opts, but not the authorization dialog, so it remains unauthorized.
Build no. F119_R035
pollofifo Could you please send the firmware? Thanks!
FliphoneBochur sorry I'm being very slow.
pollofifo Many people had this issue, so if you can give an unbricking guide it would be amazing
Biden2020prez No problem! Thank you for willing to help!
Biden2020prez I can just send a QFIL full backup, but it's from F119
