So what can a user do if they accidentally hard brick their device? A majority of Android devices from different manufacturers run a Qualcomm chipset, which makes it extremely common. It could be caused while flashing custom binaries (rooting, installing TWRP, custom ROMs, etc) or even sometimes when restoring the stock firmware. This is generally when a device gets hard-bricked. So, when an Android device cannot boot/enter these modes, flashing the firmware via the corresponding flash tool isn’t possible.
For example, the Odin Flash Tool for Samsung devices, Xiaomi Mi Flash Tool for Xiaomi, Redmi, and Poco devices, and so on.īut these tools only work if they can properly communicate with the device over a specific mode/interface, like Fastboot Mode, Download Mode, etc. However, some OEMs also deploy their own proprietary software for flashing firmware files, which are specific to their own devices. Generally, manually flashing the firmware on a majority of OEM Android devices is carried through Fastboot (The official Android command-line tool). The tool is compatible and can run on any Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7, and Windows XP PC.Īdvertisement When would you need to use it? To flash the firmware, the tool communicates with supported devices over a special interface known as EDL mode (also known as “Emergency Download Mode”). It is normally used internally by service center executives for low-level firmware flashing to revive Android devices from a hard-brick or to fix persistent software issues. QPST or Qualcomm Product Support Tool is a set of Windows software that allows users to force-flash firmware files on Qualcomm Android devices. Step 4: Verify if your Device is Connected via QPST Config.Step 3: Install Qualcomm USB Drivers on your PC (If Needed).
Step 2: Boot your Device into EDL Mode and Connect it to the PC.Step 1: Download QSPT Flashable Firmware File for your Device.
