If that's all you need. I bet you could just run it from WINE. I updated my PS5 controller using the PlayStation flash tool or whatever it's called. I used Bottles to do all the WINE stuff. Just installed the flash tool and it worked like it was Windows. Pretty shocked if I'm being honest.
I've to do usb passthrough to use msm tool, but I'll try since you said it worked for u.
With WINE you wouldn't need USB pass-through. Only if you are passing the hardware into a Virtual Machine. The pass-through just tells the Host system not handle the device. But you actually want the HOST system to handle the device. WINE is just translation, not virtualization. (or Emulation, haha)
P.S. USB pass-through does work really well in VM's. If WINE doesn't work for you. You could always keep around a Windows VM for the occasion you need the msm flash tool.
Bruh I tried that now my phones isn't turning on anymore fuck
You have a OnePlus device? You can go to EDL mode to unbrick.
Yeah I know I was in edl mode and device wasn't getting recognized even after installing all the drivers, but my phone wasn't responding so I've to force shut it off.
