Creating the partition.xml file is key for building unbrick Roms.I have not found any python or bash scripts that will create the partition.xml.And many of the Qualcomm Proprietary tools floating around are out of date and no longer apply.I have created a OPEN OFFICE CALC spreadsheet to create the data you need to put in the partition.xml file automatically. There is still a process that must be followed in order to do this correctly.THIS PROCESS REQUIRES A LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM ( NO WINDOWZ )YOU CAN USE A UBUNTU BOOTABLE CDROM OR USB FLASH DRIVE.See here to make a bootable flash drive. If you aren't running linux.OPEN OFFICE IS PRE INSTALLED IN UBUNTU.YOU CAN USE THE SPREADSHEET IN WINDOWS IF YOU INSTALL OPEN OFFICE ( IT'S FREEWARE)YOU MAY BE ABLE TO DO THIS IN WINDOWS BUT I RECOMMEND NOT TOO.Step 1 is to download this spreadsheet.Download and unzip the generator spreadsheet.I will go over the process of filling in the data you need to generate the partition.xmlPlease hold off on posting until I let you know I am finished with the tutorial.The tutorial will be several post long.ThanksBig Country.

Get the GPT Partition Table.The first thing we need is the GPT Partition Table.There are a couple of different ways to do this.#1 Any file saying gptmain.img or gptmain.bin that is in a Firmware package is most likely the GPT Table.HTC has the GPT Table in their RUU firmware.has asked about the LG G PAD II 8.0 LTE TabletCould have made this easier by posting more specific model info. So I will assume it is the LG V497.Firmwares list for LG V497So I will use this as the example for the tutorial.File name File size Date DownloadsRGSNorth AmericaCA/CanadaDownload the firmware package.Now you will need to extract the.kdz to image files.I'm gonna go do that so ill BRB. OK finally I got the.kdz unpacked. What a PITA.For anyone trying to unpack the.kdz the only tool that worked on this rom was the version1.2.6.1 from here.Now that we have the factory flash files we can actually get something done.The files we have now are the same as what we would have if we used DD to pull a backup from the device.The GPT files.So now if you did this you would havePrimaryGPT0.binBackupGPT30776320.binThese are the files that you can parse with parsebinarypartition.bl and other similar tools.These files are the main gpt and the backup gpt.This is exactly what we need.But at any rate. Because I like the dragonboard tools.For Dragonboard 410 c Dragonboard 410 e.These tools apply to all the qualcomm chips. And there publicly availableThere are instructions on that page.Read them all and actually do them even though you dont have a dragonboard.So you can get a feel for whats going on.Next I will show you how to use a couple of the tools.Then I will show you how to use the spreadsheet and the PrimaryGPT0.bin to make the dreaded Partition.xmlDon't worry its easier than you think. Just pay close attention to my instructions.I will start the next post momentarily.

Alright Lets get down to business.Open the gptmain0.bin in a hex editor and take a look at it.I use bless hex editor but any will do.Thats what were looking for. Most GPT partition tables should have the same format. By standards they are supposed to. But that doesn't mean that all manufactures follow the standard even though there required to.So we know we have a good GPT Partition Table.We need to create a text file of the gptmain0.bin so we can copy the data into our spreadsheet.Linux includes a utility called hexdump.

Were gonna use it. Sorry for the delay. I am re-writing the spreadsheet to simplify the importing of the GPT into the spreadsheet.I am trying to reduce the number of steps required to get the partition.xml file.Right now I have added in automatic conversion of the Start LBA and End LBA. Hi, you rock man, your help is very much appreciated. You provided the great help making the partition.xml file.

I have to start making the partition.xml now.But do you know how to make the eMMC Flash Programer file MPRG8926.hex or.bin for LGv497? Because I like to use the tool studio software but I need the flash programmer MPRG8926.mbn.

I was told that not any MPRG8926 will work, each device has different MPRG file. If i find this flash programmer file for my device LGv497 I have a great chance to recover my bricked LGv497 tablet.as i mentioned before, i have a full mmcblk0.img backup of a fully working same device because i have two devices one is bricked and the other is fully new.can you extract the MPRG8926.mbn from the mmcblk0.img backup??????thank you so much you really rock man.

Thumbs up.cheers.SAM. The MPRG8926.mbn comes from the Qualcomm Source Code.I have not determined the exact requirements of this yet. But I have the source for several chips.Basically far as I know the MPRG is just the flash programmer, and I believe one is the same as any other with the exception of how they are signed. If your device requires signed bootloaders ect. Then it is likely going to require a signed MPRG but I have read otherwise as well. The file you must create is the msimage.mbn.

The msimage.mbn is created using the main boot partitions, SBL1 Sbl2, Non-Hlos.mbn aboot.ect. The problem is the signing and that there really is no one answer fits all.All I can really recommend is to keep reading threads about unbricking devices with the same chipset. As far as I remember throughout my research, LG is a PITA.

And was unable to use this method until recently. (SIGNING ISSUES).If I remember correctly there are some post on ANDROIDBRICK forum that talk about a update / repair tool that was released by LG. Pretty sure that if you find that Official LG tool you can use it to flash your own images.My reasons and method for generating an image like this are slightly different.#1 You can make an exact clone of your Tablet / Phone to a sd card. Some devices will boot a sd card made this way and not boot the emmc.

This gives you a chance to get into fastboot mode or download mode and if you know how you can fix things.Right now my primary interest is in the MSM8909 chip.That's the one i'm working on and its much different than the 8226.Lucky for you I know for fact there is a unlimited amount of information on the 8226 chip you can find on google.When it comes to things like this you just have to keep reading and reading and reading and trying until you get something to work. Ok, I have started to work with this tutorials and i got stuck at certain level which is, copying gptmain0.txt file content to the partition.xmlGeneratorspreadsheet file. And here is what I am facing.i managed to dump the gtpmain0.bin to txt file and copy all selected all and copied all the content and then opened the spreadsheet file in Ubuntu 16.04 and i clicke template tab at the bottom and then i right click on Cell C4 the one with 00000 and then i chose past, I waited for a bit as your tutorials says its a long file need sometime to make the dialog box show up, so finally the dialog box showed up and i selected Fixed Width and here is where i got stuck. Your tutorial says click on the first standard box and hold shift key and then click on the second standard and then chose Text for the format. The problem is the i don't see the second standard even i scrolled all the way to the buttom of the spreadsheet cell number 27000 and it had hex value 80000 in it and i did not see the second starndard label that is mentioned in the tutorials.

Also as soon i clicked on the first standard box the hole information got dark without continuing to the second standard label. And when i change the first standard box to text nothing happen i did not see the TEXT red dog seperators.does the red do takes time to show or they will show right away when i change standard to text?? Please tell me how to fix this issue because i am stuck on this level now.thank you for your cooperations. My dear, i just like to say nevermind about my spreadsheet question above because i figured it out, it was straight forward and your info was clean it was my mistake. So far i am working with you in this tutorial, so my spreadsheet is done to the level you posted the information for, I will wait for the sizes in KB for each partition and then continue to the last point to come up with partition.xml file.just forgot to mention, the PDF fileis corrupt when i click on it to save it it says i need admin rights to view it so can you zip it and repost the PDF. I also noticed that the file extension of it says.pdf.part is not it suppose to be only.pdf?? What is this pdf file?thank you so much man i will look forward with you to continue the spreadsheet tutorial till the end.

The pdf is a breakdown of the gpt structure.It's a presentation from some kind of class.I will upload the new spreadsheet for you.I have finished patching it up to automatically generate the size information. So the spreadsheet is all the way filled in.We need to look at each of your partition backup files.

Of the good device. Do you have a backup of each partition?Ill post you the commands to pull all of them.If you have them then what wen need to do is hexdump each one the same way we dump the gpt file. Right now im dowloading in windows.

Click to expand.Hi,are you referring to the mmcblk0.img back of the good device as a back files?? Or you you need each partition file separate?. Well it sounds like we can fix your bricked tablet.First put that sd card in and leave the tablet plugged into the charger. Need to get battery 100% charged.Maybe take the tablet apart and put the battery in the good tablet to charge it.

Then put it back in the bricked device.When your not working on the bricked device then disconnect the batter so it stays charged.Get the battery 100% first.Then hold both volume up and down in wile pressing the power button. It might boot to fastboot with the sd card in.Try the normal volume down + powerandVolume up plus power.Always with the sd card in.My guess is that we are going to need to create the sd card by a different method. Upload your mmcblk0.img to meadiafire. Zip it first and the size will go wayy wayy down.

Ill build the sd card image you can try.Then we need to install the right drivers. Thats why you get yellow exclamation point.I have them so ill post those too.Then if your device goes into QHS-USB BULK it will either show up as a removable media and you can flash it or we will find another way.Get the battery charged and upload your backup.Ill be back soon.

Click to expand.Hi, I believe the battery is fully charged because I had it plugged in for one full night and the SD card was in it. Its just shows 0% battery because its hard bricked.

I believe if the battery has no juice the PC device manager will not detect it as Qualcomm QHS-USBQDLoader (COM x) no exclamation mark, or with SD card (mmcblk0) in the device as QHS-USB BULK with yellow exclamation mark even though I have all the drivers installed. So what do you say next?I was reading on the forum people says don't flash laf.bin or any of the system.bin files on the sd because it disables fastboot, after i burn the full backup 16GB mmcblk0.img on the SD card, how can i wipe the laf partition and the system partition and try after to see if it boot into fastboot mode??can you write down the commands to pull out the backup files you were referring to in your previous post??? I will try to pull them out using Ubuntu 16.10the weird thing is in Ubuntu its detected as Qualcomm QHS-USB BULK but when i go to terminal i type ls /dev/sd. it does not show up or ADB does not show it at all. Well the battery could be dead. You have little options to figure out if it is or not.A) Put the battery in a working device and charge it.The problem is once the phone goes into qdl mode it stays in qdl mode which slowly drains the battery.Until it is dead. If it shows Zero percent then it's dead.If the battery is dead there is no chance you will be able to flash it.When you plug the tablet into the computer it is being powered by the computer.That is how it shows up as qdl.

Same as with JTAG. With JTAG like riff box 2 the power over usb is enough to fire up the device processor.As far as drivers there are many different drivers.Bottom line is if you have yellow exclamation point in device manager you are missing a driver.Let me go see what I can collect for you.Just know that there are tons of things you can find on google.And did you disable driver signing enforcement in windows.Even though post like this are for different devices the drivers and methods may work. I ended up getting sidetracked on the qdl-husb-9008 / 9006 repair flash.This turned out to be quite good as I ended up figuring out how to flash the right partitions to a High Speed SD - Card and Boot off of the SD Card. This I have done for the HTC Qualcomm based devices.I never had any luck with the Qfil / Qpst because the files you flash may need to be signed depending on the device you have.I may be able to do a similar thing on LG devices but the only LG I have is a LG Volt 2.To do this though we need a backup of every partition on the device.Not just a factory firmware.The factory firmware wont have files for every partition.In the next week or so I will try this out on my LG.If it works it might help you. Hello sir, previously, sorry for my bad english.It's been 4 months my phone dead (bad flashing because porting).

Php Script Hello World

In device manager detected as QHUSBBULK, and can only be in flash using tools that use PORT & COM.I've read and followed this guide and from the thread on XDA too, hoping someone can help me out.Can this method be used for Xperia devices, sir?
