Where to download Qualcomm usb drivers for Windows 10?
-
Hi
Thank you for your answer. I got adb installed on Windows and the phone was showing on "adb devices". It's showing in device management > portable devices as drive F (F:\).
It's showing in MSM but the status connection is N/A.
but it's not showing in "adb devices" anymore.
According to the instructions I should now put the phone into EDL mode, but "adb reboot edl" throws up an error: "error: no devices/emulators found". The number two method on the page you linked to (pressing the volume up button for 5 seconds) doesn't seem to work either. Also, the phone doesn't boot anymore. The phone screen is black. Help?

I tried updating the usb drivers with a file I got from a link on the LineageOS instructions pages for setting up adb on Windows (https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb) but Windows doesn't seem to recognize it. When I go to
Device Manager > right-click on F:\ and choose "update driver" and choose "Browse my computer for drivers"
it doesn't show the file and claims that the best driver is already installed.
The Windows machine is not connected to the internet because I wouldn't want to go through the rigmarole of purchasing anti-virus software and installing it if I can avoid it. So I can't run Windows Update to get the latest drivers I suppose. Maybe that's the problem?

@yazm895 If the phone is off, press and hold all buttons for around 40 seconds, it should power up, then switch it off and follow the instructions to manually get to EDL mode - make sure the USB cable is not connected.
You have to run MSM tool as administrator.
Have device manager and COM ports expanded so you can see the device connect.
THE MSM tool is bundled with the correct Android ROM found on the devices page, unzip it and only use that flash tool.

Nope, doesn't boot, the phone screen is black. I kept the power button and the two volume buttons pressed down for 40 seconds.
I don't have the original USB cable for the OnePlus, I'm using a cable from the PinePhone. Otherwise I'm pretty sure I've done everything as instructed...

@yazm895 When you plug it into the windows PC in it's current state does it show up in device manager under COM ports?
-
@MrT10001 Oh okay, it shows up in "Other devices" as QUSB_BULK_CID:041B_SN:47...
Yeah sorry, it's not the "F" disk after all...
-
-
@MrT10001 All right! After installing the driver you linked to the phone shows up in Device Manager under Ports as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)" and in the MSM tool the status of connection is "connected"! Awesome! Thank you!

@MrT10001 It worked! The phone booted to Android like a champ! I have to go out for a few hours but after that I'll try installing UT. Thanks!
Man it would/will be amazing to get Linux on a modern smart phone...

Hi
Sorry, could you hold my hand just a bit more
?I've been going by these instructions
https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/community-ports/android10/oneplus-nord-n10/oneplus-billie
They recommend a command-line install but the Ubuntu Touch web pages and the Ubuntu Touch device page for the OnePlus Nord N10 5G recommend the UBports installer. Which would you recommend? I've used the installer and it seemed fairly straightforward. And I don't know where I can get the boot.img, recovery.img and ubuntu.img files mentioned in the command line instructions...
-
@yazm895 I only use a command line install if there is an issue installing or the device is not on the installer and under heavy development.
If in doubt, always use the installer.
-
@MrT10001 OK. Cool. Thanks again!

@MrT10001 I can't boot to fastboot mode. I switched machines, I'm on my Kubuntu setup now, but I do have adb set up and I've used fastboot on other devices. But when I press power + volume up to boot the phone it just goes into normal boot. Or if I hold down volume up + power for longer it goes into a loop where the 1+ sign appears (and powered by android or something) and then it boots again.
-
@yazm895 Okay where exactly are you?
Have you:
Installed the stipulated ROM by the porter?
Have you booted into Android and unlocked the bootloader again - EDL mode install will relock the bootloader?
Have you started the UT installer?
-
@MrT10001 Got the ROM installed. I started the UB installer but it asked if the bootloader is locked and I realized it is. So now I'm in fastboot mode through "adb reboot bootloader". The start menu says "device state locked". Is it "fastboot flashing unlock" or "fastboot oem unlock"?
-
@yazm895 Did you switch the bootloader unlock in developer options in Android before you got to fastboot?
-
@MrT10001 Yes, OEM unlock
-
@yazm895 OK in fastboot it should be fastboot oem unlock.
-
@MrT10001 Cool! Got the bootloader unlocked. The UBports installer doesn't seem to recognize the phone. Do i need to go through the set up and adjust the settings?
