I use fastboot for flashing pro1/QX1000 just fine. Why does it not work for yours? I have no idea on the edl file. Will check if I got one downloaded somewhere, but i doubt it. 

Yes, I already tried them but most of them are for flashing with fastboot and that's no oppurtunity for this device. The required files (firehose_progammer.edl) are missing. Maybe I could use a Firehose file from a different device which uses the same CPU (SD835)?

Have you tried following the guide linked by my initial post pinned in here? 

Hello guys, I have a bricked QX1000 (Pro1) which I'm trying to reflash but I can't find any files regarding the flashing with QFIL. Would be a shame if it can't be done. QFIL and Windows is not a must. Every method or opportunity would be helpful. The biggets problem seems to be to get the required files. There is also this "Factory Restore Tool" which someone reuploaded last year but the image is missing. Therefore I'm not able to get further...   Thanks in advance, Dattel

The only way I could ever get anything approaching reliable cell tower connection was by setting the phone to connect by WCDMA only. T-Mo has now shut that service down in the US, so that pretty much bricks the device as a phone now.  Mine always had decent WiFi connection, so maybe you could get VoWiFi working when you have a hotspot, but that's probably all. If you figure this out, you'd be the first. Good luck!
