PLEASE! I need to load a new ROM into my MT6575 phone using Smart Phone Flash tool.
I've installed the Mediatek drivers on 4 different computers in my house (Vista, Window 7, Windows 7 64bit, Windows 8) and I cant get ANY of them to work!!
When I look under Ports (COM and LPT) in Device Manager, I ALWAYS get: This device cannot start. (Code 10)
WHAT is going on!! I've wasted so much time with this problem.

your not the only one with this problem i have it too with same mt6575 someone help please
Need to uninstall device and reinstall drivers
If you google, "Code 10", you will find that on a Windows system it is an error code generated by the Device Manager "because it can not start a device". In a nut shell, the most likely cause for this is because the device was not properly installed with the right drivers.
If you are running Windows, you can try to use the attached file called USBReview to see what device that is as you know it is your phone. Basically, with this program you can remove all the old drivers and start all the driver installation again.
Try to find your phone either here on xda, on the web or contact your phone's manufacturer - you need drivers!!!
Good luck, Mr. Phelps.

Your USB program does give a lot of information I have never seen before, but I still haven't been able to figure out how to get the driver to load.
thanks, John
I'm having the same problem installing the MT6575 USB VCOM drivers. Is there a workaround to get this installed? I"m using WIN 6 64bit

This is what worked for me after lot of experimenting and searching:
- get MTK6575 drivers (for instance from Bruno Martins where he writes about flashing mtk6575 - google: MT6575 flashing tutorial bruno
- Start c/windows/system32/hdwwiz.exe (as admin)
- Click next
- Manually select hardware
- List all devices
- Select the driver (for example usb2ser_Win764.inf)
- from the List select "MediaTek Preloader USB VCOM Port"
(or you can install other drivers from the list if Preloader is not enough..)
On another computer I solved it by installing whole Android SDK, checked my android system and installed updated for SDK (approx. 2 GB) and it installed correct drivers automatically.
Also you can experiment with using another usb port..
Please write here if it helped.

You get Code 10 becouse your windows couldn't recognize the driver but that's irrelevant becouse flashing will work
No solution?

is ther solution?
I HAVE SOLUTION FOR THIS PROBLEM!!
Just ignore the error Code 10! Start the SPFlashtool and load the scatterfile, click on download and connect your switch off Phone with the computer. It will work fine.
Having the Same Problem
I understand I can ignore it and it works on that part, however I'm trying to root my phone now and it's not recognising that I have attached a device to the computer. Please need help to solve the problem. Have the drivers but can't get it without code 10

Did you ever get this problem solved as I have the same issue with an MTK 6592 chip based phone?
I have the same problem too.
Installation of Media Tek preloaded drivers gives me Code 10 error.
Has anyone found the solution?
my phone is totally dead without power now after I tried to flash with SP Flash tool using correct ROM. I noticed in device manager that there is a CODE 10 error in mediatek preloader usb driver.. is this the culprit? my phone can no longer be detected now in SPFlash or MTK Droid tools... so hopeless... this is a brandnew phone I bought to be given as gift to my cousin...
I did it! I did it! I did it!
The solution is... we need not MediaTek USB VCOM (Android) (USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0005&MI_02), but PreLoader USB VCOM Port (USB\Vid_0e8d&Pid_2000) !
I have MTK6582 (KingSing S2), the host - WinXPx64.
It looks like my phone (and, maybe, other MTK devices too) have several engineering modes.
I have spent several hours trying to get working VID_0BB4&PID_0005&MI_02, which is exposed, if device is turned on while holding VOL- pressed. In this mode some strange factory mode with nonfunctional menu items is displayed on the screen. But to activate mode with Vid_0e8d&Pid_2000 some trickery is necessary.
Sometimes this USB interface starts repeatedly to appear and disappear every half-second in infinitive loop. I had such situation once, when connected turned off phone to USB cable with battery removed.
I just literally catched MT65xx Preloader by double clicking on it in windows device manager and pressing "install drivers" in it's properties. I have used Driver_Auto_Installer_v1.1236.00\SmartPhoneDriver\x64\Infs\usbvcom.inf from http://spflashtool.com/download/Driver_Auto_Installer_v1.1236.00.zip. DriverVer = 12/24/2011, 2.0000.0.0
After clicking "Read Back" in Flash Tool this insane loop stopped and program started to function as intended.
This interface could also appear once and for very short moment, if turned off phone (with battery inserted) is just connected to host. Also it could be seen again, if power button is pressed. If "Download" or "Read Back" is not pressed in advance in Flash Tool, than boot will continue after smaller than a second pause (if device is functional).
I don't know if running Install.bat (from archive I have given above) is necessary. It didn't installed driver when Vid_0e8d&Pid_2000 wasn't active, but, I guess, running it during short blinks would give the same effect.
Also, I don't know, if advice given in comment#6 in this thread four years ago would work. Maybe, the fault was in older version of driver (DriverVer=05/30/2011,1.1123.0).
Another reason could be that necessary USB interface disappears before windows manages to install driver for it for the first time. Possibly, only if "catched" in device manager, user could manually assign driver to it.
I've been struggling with my UMI Rome for days. It has/had the black screen problem, sometimes won't enter recovery mode, sometimes wouldn't allow charge, sometimes works just fine (yesterday). Last night i mistakenly cut off power during a battery recharge. -- today it has all the above problems (bricked) so I am trying doing a flashing again using the tutorials and tools on the Tehnotone.com site. Sintetix's reply above helps me at least have a better clue on what is going on. Wish me luck! BTW, I am using a Dell Windows 10 pc. (Results to be reported here.)

I tried what you said. It wouldn't install properly. It kept saying error (code 10) and showed in device management with a caution sign every time I installed the driver. I disabled the forced driver signature thingamabop but it still does it. I guess I'm screwed. Has anyone else fixed this?

On my phone, mine has the same chip as yours, to flash in preloader mode, I do it in this order,
1 connect phone to pc via usb with battery removed,
2 load flashtool with scatterfile and rom to flash,
3 click on download in flashtool,
4 put battery into phone
SPflashtool then searches for the preloader driver, loads it briefly and then loads the DA Usb Vcom port driver and then proceeds with flashing
This will only work if you have the usb vcom preloader drivers installed on your pc
To check if you have preloader driver installed, open device manager on your pc, connect your phone with usb cable and battery removed, put in battery while watching device manager, if driver is installed you should see 'Preloader Usb Vcom port' appear in the ports section,
but it will only be there for a few seconds, and will dissappear again. If you do not see this you need to install the Vcom driver.
Hope this helps
you help me a lot man !!!!!

Do you see the preloader driver in device manager when you connect your phone as I described above?
Which build of SPflashtool are you using? the tool is quite buggy and sometimes helps to try another version

thank you for responding man.
any One what i can do now ??!!!
Help for god sake !!
Ok, i think the only way your going to unbrick your phone is to flash the exact correct rom for it, Do you have a copy of the stock rom for your phone suitable for SPflashtool?
The link that you show is for a Feiteng H9500, that is very unlikely that it will work on your phone, the reason your phone is bricked is because you have probably flashed the wrong preloader block, and that is whats causing the trouble, you need to make sure you have the correct rom for your device before you start.
I think the only time you had a little success is when you accidentally entered preloader mode and if it were my phone I would concentrate on getting the preloader driver installed. There are some tutorials on here to install the drivers, it can be a bit tricky, and not all mediatek devices are the same, so a bit of trial and error may be needed
Once you have the Preloader usb vcom drivers installed I would then attempt to flash just the preloader and dsp_bl blocks initially from the correct rom for your phone, and then if successful flash the remainder of the rom, without preloader and dsp_bl
If you flash the wrong preloader/dsp_bl you will almost certainly brick your phone, so it must be either from a backup you have made of your original rom or from the exact stock rom for your phone.

So the preloader vcom driver is installed ok on your pc, but you do not see it when you connect your phone, maybe you need to connect in a different way, on my phone I have to connect switched off phone with the battery removed, and when the battery is put in, then you see preloader driver pop up in device manager, there are many different MTK phones and different ways to connect.
The stock rom you have should be fine as long as it is the correct one for your device.

If your phone now is completely dead, probably your only hope of reviving it is by using the test point, see 'Modes of the virtual COM ports', here.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38369102&postcount=11
Ive never done this procedure, so cant help much with it, but if you search these threads for mediatek test point or similar, you might find some info on it

As I said, Ive never done this myself, only read about it and have no idea where the test point is on your phone, they all appear to be in different places, on an mt6577 I had previously it was easy to find, just by the sim slot, there was no need to even strip the phone down, but on most other models they all seem to be less accessible. It will be somewhere on the main board I would imagine, usually, but not always, a small round brass dot about 2mm accross, and I noticed while searching that some are marked 'KCOLO' or similar. I believe also from what I've read that the manufacturers use this method to input the factory rom, so it must be there somewhere, its just a question of locating it. The best method to find it apparently is by testing different points with a multimeter to find one that corresponds with your battery output.

I have the exact same issue. Flashing stock S124 after (rooted) S223 with SpTools messes something up.
I managed to do a TWRP restore to go back to S221 but I can't use SpTools anymore.
I get the same SpTools error message. Only after pressing the red reset button my phone will then come back to life.

Your preloader seems to be messet up. I have one problem the same like yours yesterday. It took like 4 hours to solve the problem. The problem was like this:
The computer was not recognizing the phone when the phone was powered off. Sooo.. what i did: i opened device manager in the computer, then i attached the phone. Something new has appeared in the device manager for a seccond. I clicked fast on it. A small window hass appeared. From this step i was safe. I just updated the driver and that wass it. I could flash the ROM i wanted.
Hope this helps you.

Thanks for your explanation, you seem to be the absolute guru on this site for this device! I think you are right about the preloader being messed up. I tried to install the USB driver (again) for the new device that the computer now sees. It is listed in the device manager as "Unknown Device" under USB controllers. I can't seem to force it to accept new USB drivers for it (Lenovo drivers). It keeps saying that the driver is not compatible with the device. I use Win 7 64bit, could that have something to do with it? Also is it possible to flash a new preloader using TWRP? If I press the reset button on my phone it reboots fine (rooted S221) and I have TWRP installed.

Here are the drivers i use! Hope this will help you!
Soo.. i never tried to flash preloader from TWRP. Thats an ideea, but you have to do a full backup of your phone... i think...
When i have preloader problems i flash again the whole ROM. I think is safer, better... and wize.

Thanks for the drivers, I am still struggling to make this "Unknown Device" accept other drivers. What was your unrecognised phone called in Device Manager? Was it also "Unknown Device" in the USB section?

Hi. The think was someting like this:
First i installed the .exe file. Reboot PC.
2. I have plugged the phone to the PC and new hardware wizard has appeared.
3. Now i have powered of the phone.
4. Again i have plugged the phone this time powered off.
5. At this time in Device Manager appeared for a second or two not in USB area something with.. MTK65...
6. Click very fast on it because that will desapear very fast.
7. After you clicked on it all you have to do is update driver, and voila you have drivers installed and now all you have to do is to flash you ROM.
Hope this will help you.
Good luck.

Hello!
You can try the following:
1. search and download sp flashtool. Actually you can get this from official SP Flashtool official site.
Assuming you are running Windows, also download MediaTek USB VCOM drivers and Driver Auto Installer v1.1236.00 from the same site.
2. have an S580 rom ready.
The Process:
1. Install the windows drivers you downloaded
2. Open the folder you extracted SP Flashtool and run it as administrator.
3. Inside the folder of your unzipped rom file, look for a file similar to XXXXXXXXXX_scatter_file.txt
4. Load this in the SP Flashtool (click downlad tab, then scatter loading, load this file in there. It should load your rom you will see some colours, etc...
The tricky part:
Assuming you have correctly installed the drivers:
1. turn off the device (well if bricked it is turned off all ready) just make sure, and if possible remove the battery.
2. Click the green download button on SP Flashtool.
3. Hold down the Vol down key on your s580 and connect it to a usb port.
4. If you see a red line and continue to yellow, all is probably good! Don't let go of the vol - button until yellow line reaches 100%
If it fails, try again by removing the mediatek drivers, and by installing the latest lenovo USB drivers you can find.

You have nothing to lose by trying! I cannot think of any further damage you can do to the device. If you want to be cautious, trying installing only the lenovo drivers and following the steps.
If your phone is not recognized and the process does not either not complete or initiate at all, then also install the mediatek drivers. The mediatek drivers are to facilitate communication between device and computer, they are not going into your device. What your device will get is whatever is in the scatter file in the rom you should have downloaded.
Googling about your problem, turned up using SP Flash anyway, you can google it too.
Hope I am helping, let me know how it goes! I recently revived my Lenovo Tab 3 8 Wifi following the steps I described!
qualcomm specific info
Hello Adrenoaak322.
You never posted back whether you were successful or not in reviving the phone. Anyway, I found some qualcomm specific information. I will pm you the links, if you want to take a look. Hope it helps.

Definitely worth trying. Perhaps even better from SP Flashtool, since QFIL is qualcomm specific.
You will need to do a little research on how it works, if it needs some kind of file similar to scatter file for SP, etc, etc. I sent some links to your PM that maybe useful in the process.
Maybe other users, around here, with more experience can help out?!? Anyone???
boot to "recovery mode" by pressing the volume up and power button after the lenovo and android logo appears release both buttons and immediately touch the Home button. Do clear wipe data after that select reboot now. in which case it will take a while but do not worry just wait until your lenovo returns to normal.
