When I Try To Do factoryReset Command It Says On The Device:

MDM MODE. CAN'T ERASE (userdata)

Logs:

shell> factoryReset
Are you absolutely sure you want to do this? [y/n] (n): y
~~~~~~~^
EraseUserData received 0xFF (code 0xFFFFFFFB)

Same Thing When Trying To Flash Via flashTar Command, But Instead It Says:

MDM MODE. CAN'T DOWNLOAD (userdata)

Is There A Way To Bypass MDM Mode? EFT Pro Can Bypass It And I Don't Know How, Just Look At This Clip Carefully.

Would be quite interesting to reverse-engineer this tool...

Yeah! And I would love to finally flash my device... That I have been trying on it for almost a year.
Let me know if you got any information!
Thanks for your help!

Can you implement a feature that ignores any errors Thor receives (unless it's a timeout error) and just continue without stopping? I think that's how EFT Pro bypasses MDM mode.
Hopefully, you implement it, It might be useful!

Factory reset is a SINGLE packet, and the device sent an error code for it. Nothing I can do about it.

However, I do not have the time to work on Thor as I switched my interest to a different project of mine, so do not expect me to continue for a while.
