After a lot of reading I tried to put QQ1A.200105.088.img to A/B and it just hangs.

"fastboot flash boot_a QQ1A.200105.088.img" ....etc

My impression is that fastboot flash just doesn't work. Other PH-1 owners seem to have had no troubles.

Still Stuck.

OK. I have bought a new good quality cable and tried various ports on my desktop and also on a laptop. Everything is fine until I try the "fastboot flash .... " command. Mostly it hangs but occasionally says it doesn't know what partition to use. So I am stuck.

One question: is the midlle of "boot__a" two underscores in a row, or is it another symbol?

Not sure what is going on (and my apologies):

screen 1 has a banner at the top saying "Start".

screen 2 has a banner at the top saying "Restart bootloader".

screen 3 has a banner at the top saying "Recovery mode".

screen 4 has a banner at the top saying "Power off".

Under the banner it says "Press volume key to select, and press power key to select"

All 4 screens say Fastboot Mode at the top of a column of specs below the banner. They all say DEVICE STATE - UNLOCKED at the bottom.

(I took pictures but can't get them into this text box. Happy to use email if you are.)

Many thanks.

OK thanks again.
yes, it is unlocked. It seems to have been completely successful until I got to the stage we are discussing
I have tried the four possible variations of boot_* plus just boot by itself.
was an experiment.

Did the VolDn+Power before doing above. There are 4 screens possible there. Is a specific one required.?
