I have Chinese version of Gionee M6S Plus 64GB ROM phone.
It has Qualcomm MSM8976SG Snapdragon 653. Linux version 3.10.84-perf.Android version 6.0.1.Amigo 3.5.3 version. Secure OS version 1.2.a.Build Number SV1.3.Hardware version P2.
Following link is the only link I have from Gionee site
I came to know from hovatek this is QPST format and opened a new post for it. Hence I downloaded QFIL tool and I can see option programmer path .It ask me to choose fireHose Programmer .Firehose.mbn. I navigated all the above folder but can't select.. Also there is select build path which says please select xml file.
Can anyone please help me how to back up my stock rom and using which tool ? .I want to have fail safe mechanism. If anything goes wrong in rooting/TWRP I should be able to at-least use my phone rather than bricking it.My phone has non removable battery.
Any help is appreciated. Do we have any other tool for snapdragon devices?
