Hello
I have a phone ZOPO C2 VER B. Phone turned off and do not ever want to turn on. It stopped responding to the charger, do not give any sign of life.
When connected to computer detects the phone, installs the drivers, the SP FLASH TOOL it detects. I pulled a few ROMs and I can not upload any ROM. It is always like this: It comes to 100% red belt and that's it. No error. The phone is detected as the MTK PORT, sometimes after reaching the 100% change in VCOM MediaTek USB DA. Here I give a link to the video where you can see how it looks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Iospu3n0oU&feature=youtu.be
I tried to upload separately preloader, recovery boot. Always the same ending. I tried with the battery in the phone, without the battery, hold Vloume - + Power, etc. Nothing gives all the time is the same.
Use three other PC to try. I have one more phone Zopo and on the same computer and the same driver is dowload rom with SFP without problems.
Phone is brick or can fix this?
Sorry for my english is bad
I am having the same problem, until now could not solve.

Hi all,
I have a Star/Bluebo B6000 phone which I believe is based on the MediaTek 6589T.
I followed the procedure here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206421
to set up a new ROM for the phone.
I seemed to have gotten it all done properly, but the phone only stays connected for about 2 seconds. The SP Flash tool moves into the red progress bar and then just fails.
Luckily, there isn't any software damage on the phone (from the look of it).
I'm trying to put in a new ROM to actually fix a previous issue where my phone remains on but when I press the home button or the power button the screen stays blank. Think a new ROM/fresh start may solve this.
But the core issue is that I am unable to put in a new ROM because the phone doesn't remain connected long enough.
Is there a solution to this? Or is there another way to install ROMS?
Thanks.
There are several things the issue could be.
Try running SP Flash Tools as Admin.
Try a different USB cable.
Try uninstalling current drivers and using PDANet VCOM USB drivers
Try a different PC
Try MTK Flash Tool as opposed to SP Flash Tool.
Make sure the scatter is correct. Create a new scatter with MTK Droid Tools
None of them work.
I've tried 4 different cables. MTK and SP tools.
It seems as though something is wrong with my preloader. When I try to 'restore factory settings' or even try to restart in recovery mode, the phone doesn't do anything. It's almost as though these modes don't exist or are bugged/busted.
EDIT: Yes, it seems to be some kind of preloader issue. When the phone is OFF, I connect the USB (which the computer recognises) and the within 2 seconds the 'disconnect' sound comes up. Within 2 seconds after that the battery charging shows up on the phone.
I say this because when the phone is ON, I am able to transfer files onto the phone and treat the phone as a normal connection. Something within the phone's software is causing SP Tools/MTK Tools/Other drivers not connect to it. I have a feeling I may have a corrupt/broken preloader/recovery system.
Thanks for the help. Please do advise as to what I can do.
Anyone?
Really could use some help.

Hi, did you manage to get this sorted?
I have a (supposed) MT6589 iPhone i5s clone which I managed to brick. I tried to use the instructions here to use the SP Flash Tool to unbrick it, but the first problem I have is with getting my Windows 7 (32 bit) computer to recognize the phone. I installed the MediaTek MT65xx Preloader VCOM driver and it connects for a second. I can see the device connected as a COM device, but it only stays connected for a second and then disconnects. (This is independent of whether I am running the SP Flash Tool or not.)
Is this a symptom of a bad driver? The other problem with trying to follow the instructions is that it says to remove the battery, but this copy is a 1:1 of the iPhone so it is not intended to be opened up. I tried to discharge the battery completely, but when I plug the device in, there seems to be no response (ie, Windows doesn't do anything). At some point, there seems to be some charge in the battery because of constantly plugging in the USB cable, and at that point, is when the device is recognized but is quickly disconnected.
Anyone happen to know what I am doing wrong?
So in general, I am first interested in:
Why is the device connecting properly (I assume) being recognized as MediaTek Preloader VCOM, then disconnecting in about a second?
Is it related to not being able to disconnect the battery?
In theory, wouldn't a dead battery be the same as disconnecting the battery?
When battery is dead, nothing happens when I connect the phone to my PC. This seems odd since I am supposed to be able to connect to the PC without any battery... What is the difference?
Per instructions, I've been pressing the + volume button when connecting, but I seem to get similar results no matter if I press + or not.
Should I be loading any other drivers besides the MediaTek Preloader drivers?
Thanks.
PS. I've decided to open up the phone using a video found on YouTube, and found that the battery is soldered, so I am not so motivated in trying to disconnect the battery if possible.
Update: OK, the problem I likely had with the phone is that since the phone was in a type of "boot loop", I couldn't actually tell it was on or not... And plugging in the cable only worked if the phone is off. Once I made sure the phone was dead due to battery dying and made sure I did not turn the phone on, I could connect, let the battery charge long enough for the phone to respond to the PC, and then it was recognized by SP Flash Tool. However, seems I may have tried flashing something incompatible as the phone is not responding. I'll likely need to write another post once I can find the symptoms of what is going on.
Try hardware preloader MOD which means test point on the phone board; by soldering one to GND and another point on the board (connecting points are clear on the board), this will stop connecting and disconnecting phenomenon
Hi, I have the phone Zopo C2. I turned off the phone and stopped responding. When connected to the charger, nothing happens. When connected to a computer is detect normally, I can flash ROM by SP flashtool. And here is the problem, as long as I want toflash, reaches the first red bar to 100% and ends flash without error. Drivers have a good, first is connected as "USB PORT MTK" and how it comes to 100% red bar that goes in the "VCOM MTK DOWNLOAD".I have a second phone zopo c2 and there I normally flash, and everything goes without problems
I tried with the removed battery inserted, all methods and nothing, always the same 100% red stripe and the end of the flash without any error.
I wanted to flash such proloader same and is the same.
Phone is brick ? Memory in phone is dead or what ?? Can still fix it?
Sorry I from Poland and my english is very bad.
Uninstall all VCOM drivers.
restart PC and reinstall them.
Open SPFlash Tools, choose full speed and W/O Battery
Connect phone to PC.
If flash start, ok, if not, take out the battery and put it back again. Repeat if necessary.

Ok then, do like I post, but select only the preloader.
Then, restart all over again...
my lenovo a7000 doesn't turn on, can't go to recovery mode. also my first hardbrick experience. desperate for help.
whenever i use spflashtools to download a fresh stock rom to my phone, it always shows this problem
"BROM ERROR : S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032)"
I've also tried to format it, but the same problem comes up.
Then I saw this vid. It's about fixing any bricked china phone.
"How to Unbrick every MTK China Phone ! Preloader / SP Flashtool Fix [HD]"
(pls search it on youtube if you like. somehow i couldn't post links.)
I don't know, but I think this vid is trying to fix those phones that aren't recognized by the PC. But mine is recognized. It comes up on the Device Manager as a MTK USB Port (COM10) with the battery on. But it keeps on getting disconnected and reconnected again. But this stops when I remove the battery, put the battery back on, click on download on the spflashtools, then connect the USB. The error will appear, but somehow the connection becomes stable.
Also this video talks about META mode. With the battery out, I tried all of the key combinations to enter this mode, without success whatsoever. If you know something, pls. share.

Hello. I bought a Homtom HT3 and next day a done an update with sp flash tool. all gone ok, but phone now wont to turn on. I contact homtom and got all drivers and room to fix it. Now i have a problem , i hit download on flash tool , take off battery + pres volume down + conect phone on usb cable. My computer detect it as USB MTK PORT sp flash tool load only the first red line but not detecting phone info, then after 1 minute i get
s_ft_da_no_response(4001) da didn't send response data to flash tool.
I changed drivers port even to MTK preloader, but i get same error.
NOTE....... All drivers and rom i got original from HOMTOM.
Thanks to all who can help me.
I can show a screenshot if need.
Once the red line loads, try putting back the battery. Sometimes the handset needs power from the battery. I did that with my HT3: once SP Flash Tool detected my phone, I put the battery back.
