How To Flash Qualcomm MBN Firmware Via QPST tool

Firmware Flashing
Facebook Twitter Pinterest

If your device is based on Qualcomm’s CPU and you’re searching for an easy way to flash the device’s stock ROM, here ends your search. You just need the QPST tool and the instructions here to guide you.

Follow the instructions below to get you started.

Prerequisites:

  • Qualcomm QPST tool – Download
  • Qualcomm Firmware – download for your device

How to use the QPST tool

Some drivers need to be installed on your computer to use the QPST tool. Follow the instructions below to install it. If your device is hard-bricked, read the steps to unbrick Qualcomm device.

1. Download and install the Qualcomm driver from the link above. For successful installation, while installing the driver, avoid using the USB cable.

2. After installation, connect the phone to the PC using a USB cable.

3. While connecting to PC, phone should be switched off and press volume up & down as boot key.

4. If it makes a Qualcomm port, then the driver has been successfully installed.

Flashing MBN firmware using the QPST tool

Once driver installation is complete, follow the instructions below to flash the MBN firmware file to your Qualcomm device.

1. Download the QPST tool & driver.

2. Make sure your device is charged to at least 30%.

3. Run QFIL tool.

4. Click on Browse under the Programmer path to select MBN File.

MBN File Format:

5. As soon as the MBN file is selected, Select Build will automatically select the Update or Stock ROM.

6. Click on Load XML, select rawprogram_unsparse_without_qcn.xml and then choose Patch0.xml

Load XML comes with two option:

  •  rawprogram_unsparse_without_qcn.xml : When choosing this file, data will not be lost.
  • rawprogram_unsparse.xml : Will lose RF Calibration data, IMEI, and WiFi/Bluetooth Address.

7. Switch off the device and connect it to PC by pressing Volume up & down key.

8. Click on Select Port and choose the port.

9. Click on Download to start flashing.

10. Disconnect the device from the USB cable once “Finish Download” appears.

That’s all!

      This fault is usually hardware related. Turn off the phone completely and charge to 100%. Power it back on and try using camera. If it doesn\’t work you should consider checking for hardware faults (or give to a professional technician).

    ¿QFIL tiene opción de leer y extraer el firmware?
    Tengo un alcatel 5054s se me brickeo al instalar una custom rom y lo intenté revivir con las diferentes herramienta DUU6U0 y D7UXXX PCS Y TMOBILE sin éxito, por casualidad me encontré un celular dañado del mismo modelo el cual ya no ingresa al sistema tiene roto el display al encenderlo solo aparece el boot logo y se apaga al ponerlo a cargar aparece que tiene aproximadamente 40% pero no pasa de ahi y al conectarlo a la pc es reconocido, intenté extraer el firmware con miracle box (con una gran serie de dificultades) al parecer todo bien, pero al intentar flashear mi celular, en el firmware no aparece el archivo patch0.xml, ¿donde podré descargar ese archivo o se puede generar?
    Saludos gracias de antemano

      If you have the firmware in .IMG format, you can flash using fastboot. I don’t think you can flash MBN files that way.
