if someone can provide me with dumps of a few files that would be very helpful.

download those two files... turn off your device by holding the power button for about 10 seconds, with the device off, hold the home button while plugging in to your computer's usb port. Keep holding home until the blue light turns off, and then it will stay off or sometimes a red light will blink. let go of home
inside windows device manager, you should see the usb device under "ports" as qualcomm 9008
wherever those files are downloaded to, open that folder in a command prompt.
i would like the following dumps:
emmcdl.exe -p COM7 ***(or your COM port here) -f prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn -d system -o system.img
emmcdl.exe -p COM7 -f prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn -d boot -o boot.img
emmcdl.exe -p COM7 -f prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn -d userdata -o userdata.img
the last one will take the longest but possibly most important, you can run these after a factory reset from the settings menu, or not. just disclaimer that if not then technically i have access to potentially sensitive data. I would prefer the userdata after a factory reset anyway
