It always boots directly into qdloader mode?  Then I guess there is
something wrong with all the installed images.

That won't work.  It doesn't support the protocols used by the EM7565 (yet).

Use one of the officially supported tools from Sierra Wireless.

That's odd, though.  The image format is the same as before, and
qmi-firmware-update should not have any problems parsing it.  Do you
have a corrupted image?

The command makes no sense in any case.  1199:9090 is a QDL device ID,
and it won't ever talk MBIM.
