I'm trying to reverse a qdsp6 modem file but I'm stuck with the (probably) compressed segments.
There is also a third compressed segment which simply uses zlib but the other two are not recognized by binwalk. I also compared the header to the compressed segments of a Pixel 2 modem firmware. Pixel 2 uses q6zip and delta (as mentioned here and maybe here), but not even the first bytes of those segments match.
Also searched for both segments offsets in the binary, but they can't be found as immediate. So simply looking for them to find the decompression function isn't possible.
The entropy of them looks like that:
modem.b26
Binwalk mentions parity information, but it is in the area of high entropy. So maybe it is a false positive?:
> binwalk modem.b26

Do you have any idea how to proceed to decompress those segments?
