:good:

If i can't acces not fastboot mode or flash mode? i just stuck with red light when i connect the phone to usb. volume up + cable or volume down + cable don't work.

Same here, I guess the boot is damaged.
Last night i suspected that the battery is dead, so I opened the device and disconnected the battery then tested it with MultiMeter, but the battery was doing fine.
anyway, I tried MTK Droid Tools, SP Flash Tool, SP Multi Port Download, Androxyde Flashtool, Sony PC Companion, All seems not able to detect the device.
in windows Device Manager when i connect the device it's shown as COM port.
When I plug the phone into charger or pc the notification light turns RED.
When I press the power button a faint red light appears in proximity sensor.
That's it.
I'm searching currently for TEST Points for the C5 Ultra Dual, I'm willing to try the "Emergency Flashmode", So, PLZ HELP

I see I'm not the only one here, it's realy gives me hope to repair it. I will try with RIFF box to repair the boot, but as you said there are no test point on the main board
UPD:
No test point on the main board, i have removed the main board from the phone and tried all points on it, no changes, still the COM port.

I'm fixing the device for a friend of mine, anyway, I have xperia mini pro that I unlocked via testpoint method a long time ago
I searched the internet to look for more info about Testpoints, Is it related to chipset or is it a special mode related to sony devices
anyway I'm willing to figure out the testpoint on E5533 by using the multimeter and see if the test point have some sort of different voltage on the mini pro, then I'll do the same with C5U to locate the test point (If exist at all)
I'll update as soon as i have results
regards

Is there some test point ? Someone had tried to test it via Se or S1 Tools???

I'm without my phone, someone tested ?

I'll test it because right now I don't have a screw to disassemble the phone.
When I do it I'll post...

Can someone link me S1Tools and the drivers?
I am lost, only found very old versions of S1Tools and I have no idea what drivers are needed and where to find them.
At least my c5 lies open infront of me

drivers for companium....

I tested a little with my open phone, shortcutted Mass with either 1 2 3 and 4

and connected the USB Plug again. But nothing happened, I constantly got the same device reconized, also it reconnects atfer about 45sec again.
S1Tools gave me failures at my "Patch SECMBoot" attempts when the device reconnects automatically.
On other tutorials they stated that you should have some SEMC device connected.
Can somebody check aswell?

X10 Seems to be dead. Urgent, Please Help

- Was using Free X10 Beta 4, Changed Brightness Settings, Phone crashes
- It will not turn on, but it does vibrate when holding the power on button
- The Phone is recognised by USB and comes up with the Green Light although
does not update in SEUS - "Product Cannot Be Identified" (I've deleted/replaced blob_fs, still same problem)
- Attempted to update firmware with PC Companion, Does not work, "Download Error"
- I've also attempted to installed a generic firmware through Flashtool, whilst it takes a very long time to flash it finishes although phone remains not working after.
What is wrong? I've simply changed brightness settings and it's crashed. Please help me get my phone working, I need it urgently.
This has happened once before although I've been able to reflash the firmware via SEUS although this time it isn't identifying my phone.
How was your battery level?
Ive never heard about this situation in particular but i believe if you search there are threads on unbricking an x10. Take a look around the forums and search unbrick x10 and see what you get.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Battery level was near 100%.
The Search seems to be down, could anyone link me to an unbricking tutorial on here?
Thanks.
Bump..
Unbricking method doesn't work (just flashing via Flashtool with generic firmware). On top of that it takes ages to flash via this method for some reason.
Anyone have any idea what the problem is?? The phone should be working fine, all I did was change the brightness setting and then it crashed.

it doesn't matter if U can access to flash mode. if u can, so before connect ur phone to computer, in SEUS Support zone =>start=>update software => start, then press blue letter "repair phone", wait until it ask for coonect phone in flash mode
Flash it with generic .sin files by flash tool......before that wipe total system.....
it should work....

I can't right now because I closed the Flash Tool although when it gets to flashing System it disconnects and the LED turns red, it then proceeds to saying everything has finished, disconnect phone and turn on.
Is your usb cable okay? maybe the problem is your usb cable. As of right now its IMPOSSIBLE to brick the X10 due to the bootloader not being cracked. The only problem can be your programs, cable, or maybe you dropped your X10 one to many times.
If you do get it sorted, you cant set brightness to auto, will cause a crash. This was highlighted in z's original freex10 thread.

It's not my programs, cables or computer as I've just flashed my friends X10 and it worked perfectly. I've never dropped my phone, It's done this after changing brightness setting on FreeX10 Beta 4.
It's also not the battery as I've tried using a friends battery and still the same problem.

I believe, your data cable/port is faulty....
Check it with another data cable/repair the data port...

LG P760 totally dead

Hello
is there any chance a kind person can help me with this dead stick?
a few information about this phone:
- as far as i was told, the phone died after an update
- when i plug the phone to the charger nothing appears on screen
- when i power the phone nothing happens
- when i volume up + power the phone nothing happen, same with volume down + power and volume up+down+power
i have installed the lg tools and using the imei downloaded a 600+MB package which should be the restore image of the phone but when the procedure starts to flash the image it gets stuck at 4% trying to connect to phone without any luck
if anyone has some ideas to give i would be very happy to try them!
the phone is dead. does it get hot when you connect it to the charger for some minutes? if yes, then it has shorted inside and you have to replace/repair it. same thing happened to my p765 and i had to get it replaced from lg.
Did you try to remove battery for a longer time and put it back? You can also try to remove SIM and SD card before inserting the battery.
thanks both of you for the replys.. makes me happy to be able to discuss this problem with someone..
i have been doing more testing. this are the new things i found out..
i have discharged the original battery by using it on a small circuit i have.. i then tested it with the tester and it was really low.. then i placed it back in the phone and left the phone charging all night to see if it would heat as noob.gamer said but it didn't.
interesting thing is that the battery is now charged again.. so i opened up the phone to look with the tester inside it..
looks like the charging microusb port works.. i can read about 5V on the pcb right where the connector is.. then i can read 3.3V right where the batter connect is.. when it is under charging, on the battery connector i can read much more than 3.3V which makes me suppose that the pcb is able to charge the battery afterall..
i just really can't understand why this thing doesn't give any sign of life.. power and volume buttons seem to close well when i press them, i can hear a small click.
is it possible that the phone motherboard can still charge the battery but has burned components on it?
components don't look very neat tbh, they all seems to have a black melt around.. here are some pics i did with another phone, sorry for quality

sorry, how can i do this?
do i have to enter software upgrade mode to be able to use the LG tools correctly? because this might explain why i wasn't able to flash it when i tried..
You have to press vol+ and then connect to usb(holding vol+), of course you have to be in SW Upgrade mode to get lg tool working
After you connected it, open LG tool and wait that it recognizes the phone

bah, sorry.. i have actually found a proper guide now here on xda.
so unfortunately i think i have a bigger problem here.. i have downloaded the universal lg drivers and installed them on a new computer, just to be sure to do everything from scratch correctly this time, and i then downloaded the lg support tools.
i started the tools which say the phone is not connected.. i then connected the usb to the pc.. then pressed vol+ and while it was pressed inserted the microusb to the phone. i tried it twice with the battery on and twice without the battery on.. (sd and sim are not in the phone)
unfortunately windows (xp) doesn't seem to recognize any device and doesn't install nothing. no new peripherals are detected in the device manager.
the lg suppor tools keep saying that the device is not attached and this btw was what i had with the other computer (when i just connected the phone without going into sw upgrade mode)..
Try to install drivers from lg tool, just to be sure that are right.
You should try also with another pc (win7) if you have this possibility, its strange that the tool doesnt recognize your phone in SW Upgrade Mode

i think there isn't much left to this phone sadly..
as you suggested i tried on another windows pc, this time 7.. i started directly the lg support tools and clicked on install drivers.. choose the lgp760 drivers and it downloaded them and installed them.. then i tried connecting the phone to the pc with the vol+ button pressed but nothing happens still..
is this sw upgrade mode suppose to start even without the battery?
edit: i tried rebooting the pc but still nothing has changed..

actually the phone is not mine. the person who gave it to me just told me this exact words:
"i was using the phone and received an update.. i downloaded it and installed it.. then i used the phone a 2 days and then it didn't work anymore."
this is all unfortunately.
when i try to start in sw update mode, nothing appears on screen.. i don't even hear the phone vibrating or making sounds.. nothing at all.
really looks totally dead.
try claiming the warranty. ..? and dnt mention root dev kdz words to them..just go ang say what your friend told u exact lines..and if u had open the lg l9 then pls screw it well and undetectable..and if possible..try sending a girl/older age(max 40 lol) woman to the lg service centre representatives..cuz they wont doubt a female doin root\black ops stuff on the phone..
remember there's a limit to xda work. .and that ends at hardware problems.

Funny thing, my p760 died yesterday with about the same symptoms and no way to get any vital sign of it. With the difference that the last update I did was like 3-4 weeks ago.
In my case seems like the back-top area gets a bit warm when charging, but I would say that just the usual. It might be, like someone said, a short circuit.
I guess it will not be a problem claiming the warranty and getting a new one. However I will not take the thing apart to be sure.
If you remove the phone battery and then, plug your phone to your computer, is there any signal on the USB port ? For example, on Windows, you should here a sound like if a device was plugged, unplugged, then plugged again, unplugged...
See this thread for more information :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119090
If you don't have at least this reaction, you can assume the phone is really dead. Otherwise, you have probably a software issue with the bootloader or an hardware issue with the phone battery.

My bad, it is actually alive, and exactly as you said. I guess i didn´t press the combination properly :S. Seems like I might be able to update via "LG Support Tool" (vol+/power/usb). But first I need to try a backup, I would like to keep at least some photos I have on the phone.
Lets see if the sync software is able to do it...
---------- Post added at 05:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:18 PM ----------
:/ As I expected the PC-sync software did not connect. And I don´t see any option to backup with the "support tool". Any options?
I suppose, the internal memory is just a memory card and I could just copy directly from the card, but I don´t want to take the phone apart (just in case a have to make use of the warranty in the end...)
Thanks in advance.
---------- Edit ----------
Well, the thing didn´t work out in the end. I tried upgrading with the "LG Support Tool" but the process never went further than 4%.
I will just return it, and I hope to get it back soon (or a new one... or whatever). In the meantime I can go back with my always reliable N5800

[Q] QPST & MiFlash Issue on Lenovo K910

Ok.
If you're having problems regarding how quick COM/USB port changes, please read my solution on post 4
Story.
I bought this phone last week and he came with android 4.2.2
After 2 hours i was able to get the 4.4.2 rooted but then...
...i just installed s.th that i can´t remember that cracks my boot.img
The this is that 4.2.2 version had the bootloader cracked but the 4.4.2 hasn't. That means i can't push anything to solve my .img issue.
After a few searches i reach to htcmania witch they have 2 possible solutions for my problem. Here's the 1st and here's the 2nd.
Now.
After i spend to much time trying to install the drivers correctly (initially without success) my phone just died. I lost Lenovo logo and ended up with just a red light blinking. Witch i though...F&%K!!!
If there's anyone who ended up like me, here's the solution for a pseudo-dead-phone:
remove your battery disconecting the cable inside the phone
plug the phone into a PC through a usb cable
insert your battery back
voilá. phone back alive
Now that i was able to get lenovo logo back again...
... i need your help (Lenovo K910 fans or someone with a great idea )to understand something that's has been cracking my head.
How the hell should i put this in download mode?!
I mean. Each time i plug the usb cable into PC with the volume up pressed, the device manager was able to reach Lenovo_blabla_2008 (witch seams to be the correct port so that my phone communicate with PC) but after a brief moment it changes to lenovo_composite_adb_interface (and this one doesn't work).
Now the question itself:
When should i press and where to stop that happening?! Because when i start the phone with those keys combination the phone restarts twice and not just one.
Here is a picture with my phone in download mode.
I quickly press the download button but then the just just restarts and i loose the download mode

after more than 24h pretty helpfull :good:
Hey, same probleme no download mode...only for few seconds... No chance to force them
Solution and new problem
Well...
...after all these days without any success, today i must awake with a lamp over my head
Question: If our/mine problem regarding COM/USB port is the quickness that it changes to USB how can we slow it down?!
Answer: Plug an USB extension (big) between phone and PC and...voilá
Simple, isn't it?
Now i got another problem
Probably i made some mistake between step 7th & 8th on QPST tip for our K910 on HTCMania (you may use google translator to translate from spanish into your language, but english work better) and i ended with a complete black screen that doesn't respond to power button, no red light even if i unplug battery cable inside K910.
Any sugestion?!
Thanks
Here is a pic.
As you can see, device manager sees my port as QDLoader 9008 and it stays there.
QPST Configurator sees my port COM11 but doesn't recognize phone
and eMMC Software doens't connect on DW mode and it gives me that error

Thank you
But apart google translator work as bad as possible i believe from wht i've read (bad) this is how use QPST, not my last problem described.
Anyway, thanks again
@Crowds,
have you a blue LED then you press VolUP and plug in the USB cable?
I had no LED, nothing, no Red, no blue.
Here i get 2 PM's from Editl, he has tried me to help, without sucess.
Here i share:
Hi,
I do not want to intruding, but I saw that you have similar problem as I had. I still cannot post on Lenovo thread as I do not have 10 posts on xda.
Your message:
“Hello, now my phone Stuck on Lenovo logo and locked bootloader, too.
had 1431_-dev on it witch unlocked bootloader and recovery from 4pda (VIBEUI_V2.0_1431_6_DEV_K910_NK_W_66FC_RR) on it
Today i flash Recovery TWRP 2.7.1.2 on it, with success... all fine.
Boot in recovery and wipe all data to install 1433_4_ST_k910_246M" from the bbs forum on it.Vol + and -
after flash i clear Cache data again.. twrp reboot and now i stuck on lenovo logo and cant acces anything,fastboot says locked.
what can i do now?
Boot with Vol+- dont work and twrp boot wont work”
Possible resolution:
I had the same problem as you are just with different rom. I have flashed RUS_VIBEUI_V2.0_1433_4_ST_K910_WC97_RR with TWRP 2.7.1.2 using standard SDfuse method. After that I wanted to flash another rom. I have entered TWRP with boot to recovery option and wipe the system, dalvik and system cache.
Tried to flash new rom over sideload option build in the TWRP but phone returned bad checksums. Immediately after, I have rebooted phone and stuck onto Lenovo screen.
Boot with Vol- and power did work and twrp boot did not work either, tried so many times. I finally find on some forum that TWRP 2.7.1.2 have a bug and that if you want to enter TWRP 2.7.1.2 you need to hook your usb cable into the phone and then hold Vol +, Vol – and power together and then to plug usb cable to computer usb port then TWRP recovery will show up.
I have succeeded after few tries on one laptop with Win8.1 pro 64bit. One odd thing is that on that Laptop I had a Lenovo drivers installed but those drivers did not recognise phone that had just TWRP 2.7.1.2 recovery even if I had use that laptop for so many time to flash the phone over adb using SDfuse method.
On the end I used another laptop with Win7 HP 64bit with installed generic adb drivers to recognise phone with just TWRP 2.7.1.2 and pushed rom thru sideload and finally I revive my phone back to original state.
I am hoping that you can revive yours as well.
If you find this solution fix your problem, please post the link on xda.
Cheers.

I have find similar procedure on one forum. Give a try, you do not have anything to lose.
"LED bootloop is it with blank screen and blue light LED? can't boot OS and can't go into recovery.
last time i once stuck in these condition. after some trial and error manage to go into fastboot by shut down the phone (hold power button for more than 10 seconds) and then hold vol + & - then connect cable to computer (or is it vol - only)
somehow i've experienced this kind of brick few month ago. my solution was:
1. turn off the phone using the PWR + VOL UP method.
2. press both Vol UP/DOWN while the phone still turned off and plug in the usb into the computer
3. you will feel the vibration.
4. while in computer it should detect and the phone will be in fastboot mode.
5. run adb command to either load the cwm or etc
i forgot what step i choosed that time but somehow i managed to flash back the system and revive the phone."
By the way, do you have or know where to download international rom VIBEROM_V1.0_1407_2_ST_K910 ?
Thanks. Cheers.

Hi @gekkorist
First of all thank you for your feedback :good: bad that one didn't came sooner :laugh:
I don't know if you're suffering exactly as i.
Like you, i don't have red, blue, yellow, orange, gfreen :laugh: plus...NO LOGO since my last step as explained on 4th post.
If you're stuck like i was (no leds but with lenovo logo) follow this BUT plug your phone with an USB extension like i've mentioned in 4th post. I´m pretty sure with this trick this will work on any PC despite OS used.
Regarding the solutions presented by @EdiTL both cases won't work cause this time i can't even turn on (?) my phone. This is very strange since if i plug in the usb cable pc recognizes that something is plugged but can't detect on QPST despite device manager recognizes COM port as QDLoader 9008
now i try with a 5 meter cable, same issue with short detect in 9008 and go after 2 seconds back to adb. no chance with qpst.

I'm convinced that WIN8 had nothing to do with it.
Everyone that i've talked to when i had my problema told me to put Win98 32 bits and i've managed with Win8 64 bits so...
Check my signature and follow everything without execption.
Like i wrote there it tool me 1 entire month!!!

So what I read your sadly history., your phone dosent regodnize it ether with battery? Did you get it succesful with or without battery? Cause I read HTCmania it is possible have succes without battery, is it true? In my case it has to be driver issue or driver signatures.... I downloaded win 8 x32 and will try it tomorrow without battery. Cause I quess my battery is empty. I regodnize that when I plug the microusb to the phone a little bit, the red light shows and I quess it will charge it a bit (~5min) and after that I plug the phone to the pc it shows qualcomm QDLodaer port not usb device. But It will discharge pretty fast and then pc regodnizes it as USBdevice. So what is my question is, Is it possible make that process without battery? Thank you, I really aprechiate your help.
P.s. Sorry my bad language, and one thing is sure. I wont send phone back in china. I´ll fight on my last day with this thing

Be sure that you install the correct drivers for COM port accordly to your OS.
And yes. I played so many times with my phone trying to get back alive that I ended with an empty battery (post #6 on my thread). By that time I had to remove the battery till all process is completed and restart the phone.
Like I said it took me 1 month until I was able to do with and like you one thing was sure...I won't send it back either
Good luck...you gonna need it

That your story gives me so much hope and that spark to not give up. Like I told you earlier, if I some miracle get that phone back in business I'll bye you a BEER!
Crowds said:
Ok.
If you're having problems regarding how quick COM/USB port changes, please read my solution on post 4
Story.
I bought this phone last week and he came with android 4.2.2
After 2 hours i was able to get the 4.4.2 rooted but then...
...i just installed s.th that i can´t remember that cracks my boot.img
The this is that 4.2.2 version had the bootloader cracked but the 4.4.2 hasn't. That means i can't push anything to solve my .img issue.
After a few searches i reach to htcmania witch they have 2 possible solutions for my problem. Here's the 1st and here's the 2nd.
Now.
After i spend to much time trying to install the drivers correctly (initially without success) my phone just died. I lost Lenovo logo and ended up with just a red light blinking. Witch i though...F&%K!!!
If there's anyone who ended up like me, here's the solution for a pseudo-dead-phone:
remove your battery disconecting the cable inside the phone
plug the phone into a PC through a usb cable
insert your battery back
voilá. phone back alive
Now that i was able to get lenovo logo back again...
... i need your help (Lenovo K910 fans or someone with a great idea )to understand something that's has been cracking my head.
How the hell should i put this in download mode?!
I mean. Each time i plug the usb cable into PC with the volume up pressed, the device manager was able to reach Lenovo_blabla_2008 (witch seams to be the correct port so that my phone communicate with PC) but after a brief moment it changes to lenovo_composite_adb_interface (and this one doesn't work).
Now the question itself:
When should i press and where to stop that happening?! Because when i start the phone with those keys combination the phone restarts twice and not just one.
Here is a picture with my phone in download mode.
I quickly press the download button but then the just just restarts and i loose the download mode
GRRRRR!!!!!!
Thanks

Hey. I did exacly what is in your instructions (recover k910) for prepare things . Can you explane why my device show as a port but in conf QPST it just hangs on half a way? Here is screen what I mean. And yes, I installed win 8. x64 but still that anoying broblem. This is why I ask this about you beacause your battery was also drained like mine. ( I plugged the phone to the pc battery unplugged.)
Tell me what was your magical touch secret.

That's one the of anoying problems you'll find like i.
U had to be quick enough in order that QPST won't losse COM connection.
Most probably your QPST in that "midle way" disconnects as COM wright?
Well...keep tryng...i did it for one month

I did this. 1. (Disable signining) Installed QPST, reboot/(Disable signining). 2. Plugged phone to pc, got port/QHSUSB Bulk-> updated drivers win7x64 folder, reboot/(Disable signining). 3.Installed Lenovo drivers, (Disable signining). 5. Unpacked rom C:\bin/..6. Change the flash_local. 7. Open that Device manager and QPST config. AND THIS IS THE PART WHEN I SEE MY PHONE AS HALF A WAY PORT. It won´t dissapear there. It just connects and hangs on the half way, if i do the rest of instructions i got just emmc QPST hanging "download" and will search the device... aaaaand the result is "device not found"...
Actually, when I connect the phone to the computer it will only appear as in the picture and stays there. I do not have a big old USB cable. Do I need it for that purpose?

exit
adb reboot bootloader
and after reset it as done my phone got bricked ( by the meaning of brick i mean phone not getting reset and its not reseting by holding Vol UP+power nor with pressing the red button near my sim card place and not even by taking out the battrey cable behind my device ) now :
when i connect my phone with usb cable the only thing my computer discover is ( theres 2 kind of discoverable device maybe they are the same : one when i connct to my usb 2 port and one when i connect it to my usb 3 port ; it should b same idnt know ) :
QHSUSB__BULK and USB Input Device
and believe me i TRIED every thing .

I would love to hear any suggestion from u guys ( and please dnt say take it to support center cause we dnt have any in our country and my phone guaraty is allready voided )
btw This is from my s1tool 6ii2015 :
so you cant get into flashmode at all?
(using all methods?)
(if you get into flashmode you can flash a loader.sin from a FTF)
see if you can take apart your device and modify the boot order to load the USB first
from there you should be able to access fastboot and flashmode
oh yah, you can type fastboot oem relock *relock-code* to relock your Bootloader
no need for much else at all
If you can't figure it out. How much would you sell it for?
.
z2
ty or all the replies no idnt wanna sell it but ty for offer : ) and about modes on my phone lets say no it 's not going to any mode at all .
but today one of my friends said maybe that s ure internal hard problem cause he assured me that my main board and display and battery is ok , and he said icould get a z2 internal hard for u and instal it and get the data from the source to upload to internal hdd , any idea how much would be the price didnt found any thing about z2 d6502 hard drive in the whole internet

You have any solution? ANy updates? my xperia z2 has dead, not fastboot. not flash mode, nothing. Please Help me
HI there,
Try pressing the RED button just beside the sim-card tray on the side of phone. If after pressing it, the phone responds with three vibrations, it is not dead. you can try using Flashtools to revive it after that. follow the flashtool guides if the 3 vibrations happen. good luck.

A2017 4th category brick repair manual (when ZTE ... ... Interface DFU mode ony)

Hi folks!
I have great news for those of you who have bricked your devices completely and you don't have any possibility to apply this as a warranty case. By this I mean that your Axon 7 is not booting to system or any other possible modes except the DFU mode which detects by PC (Device Manager) as ZTE Handset Diagnostic Interface(DFU) (COM...). And neither any of the software tools nore Deep Flash cable didn't manage to help to unbrick it.
There is a solution! Please pay precise attention to each step and make sure that you are capabale of doing all the actions otherwise refer to a professionals to do the job!
Axon 7 restore manual from bricked conditions when only ZTE Handset Diagnostic Interface(DFU) (COM...) mode is detected
All actions you do at your own risk. If you are not sure that you can do it by yourself then refer to a professional!​
Method description:
Device repair is performed with MiFlash tool with forcing the phone into EDL mode. To do that you will need to disassemble the phone and circuit the TEST-POINT. After that Windows Device Manager will detect your phone as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM...).
Terms and Definitions:
Repair package – folder on PC that contains all necessary files to flash the phone with MiFlash tool in EDL mode.
4th category brick – phone status which does not allow to boot into next modes: Recovery, Fastboot, FTM, EDL. In Windows Device Manager the phone detects as ZTE Handset Diagnostic Interface(DFU) (COM...) whrn you connect it via USB cable. Any of possible manupulations give the same DFU mode (even when you force to install Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008, in reality it is still a DFU mode).
ATTENTION!!!
Considering that this method requires the phone dassasembling, please pay your attention to the teardown video and evaluate your capabilities of doing that. The build quality is good enough, so it will be quite a challenge to dissasemble it without parts damage, if you don't have experience and tools. The best way to do it is to give the phone to a specialit (preferable trusted one) along with this manual.
Special thanks to:
Stas13071992 - the first ever person who have found the TEST-point (critical spot for flashing).
djkuz - the guy who have helped to find this solution, created this manual and already helped to repair a bunch of bricks distantly.
brenic - guy who have collected required files to create Repair package.
Device teardown manual
Here you can see the complete teardown video from JerryRigEverything.
And then...
Major actions after body dismantle:
1. Disconnect ribbon cable of the finger print scanner.

}
2. Remove the screw with the silver bracket covering the extension ribbon cable.
3. Unclip all indicated connectors with plastic tool. Notice! The extension ribbon cable marked with green arrow (Main – going from type-c board to motherboard) has to be connected back during flashing!
4. Unscrew four screws of the motherboard.
5. Gently lift off the motherboard (it is held/glued with the thermal grease of the processor).
6. Detach signal antenna wire from the right side of the motherboard.
7. Unsnap the rear facing camera.
8. Here you go, the Test-point (marked with red arrow)! (do not forget to connect the extension ribbon cable back (going from type-c board to motherboard).
Repair process
First download Repair package with B13 firmware, Android 6.0 (for China models) A2017_B13_FULL_EDL_UNBRICK_DFU (mirror on yandex.disk). Unpack all the files to separate folder.
Second download and install Qualcomm drivers and MiFlash.
MiFlash manual.
1. Connect original USB Type-C cable to the phone.
2. Circtuit Test-point on the housing (there is sim-cards slot body nearby).
3. Connect USB cable to PC USB-port (preferably USB 2.0 version).
4. You will hear the USB device connection sound from PC (but you will not notice any vibration of the phone or red diode indicator blinking).
5. Make sure that Windows Device Manager have detected the phone as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (on COM port). If it is not so or if it has detected an unknown device then make sure that you have installed Qualcomm drivers (even forced installation if required). You can release Test-point at this moment. Then disconnect USB cable from PC USB-port.
Repeat the procedure of Test-point circuiting on the housing to make sure that PC detects the phone as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM...) in the Device Manager.
6. Circtuit Test-point on the housing again and hold it (do not release or brake this circuit)!
7. Run MiFlash on your PC, then specify the path to the firmware folder and push "Refresh" button. You should see the device detected in the program window.
8. Then push "Flash" button and the flashing process will begin. NOTICE: you should hold the Test-point cuircited until you see the sign "send configure command", then you can release Test-point circuit.
9. After flashing is completed you should re-assemble everything back and turn the device on.
10. If the device is turning on successfully then don’t forget to go to recovery mode and perform "Factory Reset" (because in userdata there can be some garbage that left from Android 7.1.1, it can interfere successful load to the system).
Here you can download this whole manual in English in MS Word format.
I'm sorry that some of the links are in Russian language since the content is located on 4PDA.ru forum. You can use translate.google.com to understand how to access the files. Or you can find the files with drivers and MiFlash somewhere else.
Good luck and be carefull with your devices!
Status: tested and works!!!
Thanks, I'm sure it'll help some people, but performing this when your phone has a software problem and you still have 3 years left of warranty seems a little crazy to me.

Good point, but it mostly concerns chinese models when you buy the phone with no warranty.
Moreover, if you bricked you phone it is likely not a guarantee case.
Anyone define what "Circtuit" means?

I think by default you can't brick the phone with locked bootloader, on the other hand if you have bricked the phone, you have unblocked bootloader. And this is not a guarantee case.
In reality, I know that Chinese shops from AliExpress will not even bother with any kind of investigation. As minimum they will replace motherboard, as maximum replace the phone, but they will charge some fee in any case.

Okay, all doable, except this part. I have an A2017G. Does anyone know what the package consists of, i.e. what we have to flash instead? Is there any package for G, or does anyone know about a way to do it on non-chinese?

I would say all the above except you'd use a European rom, specifically for the A2017G.
It should work if all the hardware is the same...

I got to the send configure command but it's failing every time... i'm keeping the pin held there
Done! It's the most finicky process I ever made, what with the tiny copper contact and MiFlash flashing stuff only when it's on the mood. After around 30 tries and a successful flash of a zip I didn't have to flash, I managed to get to the configure command thing and left the short circuit there for 3 seconds more. after that it started flashing and I almost shat myself

Yeah, perfectly fine as of now. I noticed that the bootloader was not unlocked when on B10 (no The software can't be checked for corruption message) but it got unlocked after updating to official 7.1.1 B01 for some reason.

This message did not appear because in my B10 package I replaced aboot (used from the USA version of the phone B20). When installing firmware B01 7.1.1 aboot changes to the original and the message appears again!
So I'm trying to do this with my A2017g, but it only stay in com for like 3 seconds, then it's gone. I don't have the time to flash anything...
