Unbrick Rog Phone 5s after flashing with wrong firmware.

[Kvakunoff]

Can someone please help me?

Let me explain what happened.

The phone didn't have WIFI but everything else worked. I thought it was the firmware.

The problem is that I flashed a rog phone 5s with the rog 5 firmware.

I followed this post.

The phone flashed without a problem, but after the flash was finished the phone restart, and it no longer starts and I can't enter the bootloader either.

Here's what it shows me after im trying to flash with 0-update_image_EDL

I see the phone in EDL mode on Device Manager.

QPST see it, QFIL see it. So the phone is not completely dead.

Thanks for the repplay, i fix this one long time ago.

Flashed Rog 5s with ENG firlware then flashed with normal ww stock rom.

The problem is QCN file, i dont have for rog 5s. Mine is corrupted.

The phone work but without network.

I dont believe even in a second someone will post QCN from 5s.

So that's that,

As i said the forum is death.

How flash without unlock bootloader?

[Kvakunoff]

Its simple.

Put phone in EDL, then install eng version (engeneering version) the bootloader is autounlock.

When ENG is installed the phone is in diagnostic. You can do whatewer you want.

After that you can reboot to fastboot and install any RAW firmware.

The problem i have is that i dont have QCN file from rog 5s.

The QNC files from rog 5 not working.

No toll work.

Fixed it already, just missing one QCn from rog 5s.
