Flashing Firmware via QFIL (Brief Guide)

  1. Open QFIL (included in the QPST installation).
  2. In the "Select Build Type," choose Flat Build.
  3. Click Select Programmer and browse for your firmware folder. Select the .mbn or .elf file (usually named similar to prog_emmc_firehose_Sm7325...).
  4. Click Load XML and select the rawprogram0.xml and patch0.xml files.

  2. Use metal tweezers to short the two contact points (touch them together).
  3. While keeping the points shorted, connect the USB cable to the PC (or reconnect the battery cable briefly if your USB is already plugged in—methods vary slightly by technician preference, but shorting while USB is connected is standard).
  4. Watch your PC:
    • You should hear a "USB device connected" sound.
    • Check Device Manager on Windows. Under "Ports (COM & LPT)", it should show Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COMx).
  5. Once the device is detected as 9008, remove the tweezers.
