First, yes there is another thread called Unbrick your Le Pro3, tested and working
TLDR: The original tested and working has good information, some really nice images to view along with the instructions. But its outdated, has bad links, and a corrupted Qfil. This is too confusing so here is the updated unbrick thread that this community needs.
- Consider this thread to be a version 2.0, a companion to that existing thread, with alternative steps and better overall clarity.
- The person who created that original thread is no longer active within the Leeco Pro 3 community and the original file links are mostly dead anyway. In addition, the original Qfil file on that thread OP was corrupted and lead to a lot of frustration via countless sahara errors and other issues.
- I have tried to support the many people with bricked phones, and over a long period of time, and I made many of those posts on that original thread. It's way too hard to keep things updated on that thread when I can't even find my own original posts.
- There is no question that this thread will help me keep relevant information for saving bricks organized, and will better serve people with bricked devices. and maybe help resolve the clutter issue caused by the weekly " Help I bricked my phone" threads that are created almost weekly.
TLDR: The original tested and working has good information, some really nice images to view along with the instructions. But its outdated, has bad links, and a corrupted Qfil. This is too confusing so here is the updated unbrick thread that this community needs.
Note
Before attempting any of these steps : first try just leaving the phone plugged in for a few hours and wait and see if it comes back to life. It is possible that the cable is bad, your battery stats are off, and the battery is simply on 0% Especially if you have a faint blue light, instead of a red light.
X722 Qfil

X722 Owners Go Here Make sure you thank and if you can donate a coffee to @F.J.V
Instructions :
- Install the "RELINK HS-USB QDLoader 9008" driver
- Plug your phone USB cable into the back of your desktop ( those ports usually have more power)
- QFIL mode: Press on vol+ and vol- simultaneously while holding power*
- Alternate way to get into edit mode ( Press vol+ and vol- while plugging usb into pc. enter in edl mode.
- Per@F.L.V Place Qfil in Main Drive: I.E the C or D, etc primary system drive
- Once there uncompress your Qfil.zip Note that your directory is now C:\Qfil, or D:\Qfil.
- Launch Flash 2.0 main.exe from within the Qfil directory ( Again its: C:\Qfil, or D:\Qfil.)
- To start Flash program : Open Flash 2.0 Folder and click "main.exe"
- Within Flash app: Click "Flash Type" window select "Qualcomm - flash dead phone"
- Refresh> then you will see that port 9008 is now available
- Click "Select file and then choose the Leeco "Qfil" Firmware (The path cannot not contain spaces) If you have trouble selecting the file > Right click on file> click properties > then highlight the path and right click copy> Paste into select file window.
- Click the "Flash" button at the bottom of the window.
- Once completed, disconnect the phone and power on. To exit the Qualcomm Recovery mode, keep the Power Button pressed for about 1 minute or until the phone will vibrate and restart into system.
- After restoring your device with Qfil, the phone memory will display the incorrect amount. The solution is to flash the original stock EUI firmware.
After you have performed all of the steps
* Your Le Pro 3 will have the technicians repair version of EUI.
* The phone may not boot automatically.
* Press and hold the Power Button for 30+ seconds and the phone will vibrate
* Release the power button, it will vibrate again after 10-20 seconds*
* The phone will leave the Qualcomm Repair Mode, and will vibrate continuously for 20 seconds or longer.
* In some cases the phone could take as long as 15 minutes to start. But usually it's faster.
* Immediately you will notice that part of your storage is missing, reformat storage to resolve
Repair Storage
Restore to Default Stock Software for your Device
Option 1: Flash your Zl1 Recovery or My Recovery
Option 2 Flash full stock X720 firmware.
Option 3: Push the latest TWRP Recovery and Root to the phone. > Use SuperSu at this stage, as Magisk will not work yet.
You can use the Leeco Official Rom Downloads
Le Pro 3 : http://bug.letv.com/cn/download/phone/56 ( X720/X727)
Elite : http://bug.letv.com/cn/download/phone/80 ( X722 - Use only with ADB )
Custom Rom Install: ( The All in One Tool provides quick easy options for Stock and Custom Rom installation
Once TWRP is installed,
Format storage and reboot to Recovery
- Format.> Type yes. then immediately reboot to recovery > you may see a message that no OS is installed, ignore, check to install TWRP
- Reboot to Recovery and place files in Storage via your Desktop or Better Yet: Use an OTG Flash Drive and install from it.
- Now you are ready to flash a Compatible Rom, Gapps And Magisk
So that is how you unbrick.
- If you would rather have a visual guide the embedded link may be easier for you to follow.
- Although the link above is for the Leeco Max 2., the steps are identical!
- It's not in English: so use Chrome and enable Google Translate
QPST Alternative Method
Go Here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77723528&postcount=2
- Remember to only use the files for the your device and the only Qfil that will work for the X720 /X727 is named : Qfil: le_zl1_qfil_ufs_fix
- If you have an X722 go to the F.L.V thread linked above for your Qfil file then you can come back here for instructions if needed.
- Good luck, be patient, the first time unbricking can be stressful and will sometimes take a while, mostly because you are not familiar with the steps yet. Otherwise it's usually a fast process.
P.S.
- Please Do not spam my PM box, these are the only instructions that you need and there is nothing more that I can give you beyond these instructions.
- This year I have received possibly hundreds of PM's concerning bricks. ( Not kidding!) Hundreds!
- So I can not respond to PM's about bricks, its too much., especially when the majority of these people never read the basic instructions. So any questions or answers concerning unbricking needs to happen here on this thread I apologise, but I will have ignore PM's with questions about de-bricking your device. However, I myself an hopefully others will check this thread often.
Note : If all else fails and you still can't get it and you absolutely need my help: You can mail the phone to me to attempt to debrick it for you for a small nominal fee or it will make a beautiful paperweight.
Hey recently recovered bricked X722 survivors:
Your help is needed here : Please help with supporting people with bricked phones. It will be greatly appreciated, and since most of you guys recovered you phone for free! Why not help out? We should have a lot of experts! [/COLOR][/B]
It Failed : Start Over
- Ensure that your antivirus software is turned off it will detect these tools as a malware and delete parts of the file making them useless.
- Did I mention that you should turn off antivirus?
- To reiterate: trust that nothing bad will happen, you are already bricked, so turn off antivirus or pay someone to unbrick your phone, for you.
- Trust that the people who do these type of repairs for a living rarely use antivirus because most "exploits" can often be be removed manually with ease.
Don’t give up so easily if something goes wrong
- Simply do a gut check by rethinking and rereading the steps:
- Did you follow instructions?
- Did you reboot the computer after installing the drivers?
- Uninstall and reinstall the drivers then reboot your desktop.
- Did you disable Antivirus?
- Unless your phone has hardware issues these steps will eventually work.
To reiterate If you device refuses to unbrick
most likely You missed a step!
- Its either your cable, your desktop computer, or the device hardware.
- Some X727 owners will have success using Qfil and unbricking and still have a black screen > First check that the phone has actually restarted normally, and is not still in EDL repair mode.
- If you checked everything and still have this issue, your LCD may likely need to be replaced.
- However, there is a couple of other methods which will be added that may resolve this kind of issue.
Go to post #2 and # 3 on this thread for additional ways to unbrick
Hypothetical Hardware Damage repair for cheap steps listed at this post.
One Last thing:
- I understand that you are upset about your phone, but I DO NOT want to read your whining and ranting about Leeco using bad parts or the rom had poor development. IT'S YOUR FAULT PERIOD. >>> YOU decided to use custom roms.
- Next, If I am spending my time to help you : you should really click thanks or I might be likely ignore your plea's There is nothing more annoying than spending 20- 30 minutes on multiple occasions, attempting to help someone that can't even click a thank you button. I am not collecting likes...it's simply a matter of common courtesy.
- Yay you are now un-bricked! If you want to courteous and buy me cup of coffee, for making things easy for you, it will be appreciated. Have a nice day.
