Bricked Alcatel Pop C1 4015X (Mediatek MT6572) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all.
Easy question I hope! I've been following the guide to unbrick MTK devices, and have managed to get an original factory ROM to flash to the phone, green tick in SP Flash Tools. However, the phone still won't power on at all, save for the light if plugged into usb.
The ROM I've been using is an original factory rom named "ONE-TOUCH-4015X_POP_C1_FULL_STOCK_BACKUP" which is readily available online. I'm not sure what I did to brick it in the first place, but it was within SP flashtool. I May have formatted accidentally.
If someone coudl help I'll try to provide all logs or files requested but please tell me where these could be found as I'm not that good with flash tool.
To confirm the phone won't boot into any mode, recovery is dead, fastboot is dead....

same problem hope somone help us
also share ur backup please

Did you ever get the above rom to work? If so what did you do? Or did you find another method to unbrick the phone? Thanks.

Managed to unbrick my 4015 using Mobile Upgrade S 4.3.0 from the Alcatel Website.

Very simple to use, just install and follow instructions.

no work this version. yes 4015 but no 4015x

Sorry I should have put my phone is a 4015X not 4015. The application does say 4015 which I selected and all went well.

my 4015x no update, it not load, only work flash mode connected to pc and no work mobile upgrade.

4015X Partitions
the 4015x has a different set of partitions to the older (dual sim) 4015
i have a modded rom (kitkat), a modded stock recovery (as stock is also wrong, wont mount data) and a modded cwmrecovery.
i will be posting these soon
i will create a new post for the 4015x version
and will also be asking for other versions of the 4015 users to post me there partition trees and i will repack some recoverys and some roms for you all
note: there are 6 versions that i have seen and they may all have diff tables
hope these will help the pop c1 community

Hello!
This thread is quite old but near my case.
I have an Alcatel Pop C1 4015X (cpu MTK6572M) that can't start at all (only the power LED is ON).
I have a backup of this device made with "SP Flash Tool V5.1532.00" but I've error "not enough space" when
I try to restore it.
Same error when I try to restore just one file.
For example, I've tried to restore only the "Stock Recovery" you give above.
I do this:
- I start Flash_Tool v5.1532.00
- I open scatter file from my backup done with the same tool
- I unselect all pieces of the backup except "Recovery" and I browse to the "Stock Recovery" file I've dl
from this thread.
I've got this error : "not enough storage space (1011)"
What could be the problem ?
I makes me totally crazy !
By advance, thanks for your help.
Regards,
Freeman.

What i did was i used SPFT to flash a backup i found online. Can't post links, just google "ot 4015X Original SPFT ROM", what i used was the algerian rom. Then i flashed the EE stock rom. My own backup didn't flash back correctly either, that's why i used that one i fould online.

4015X unbricked !
Hello,
I found a similar solution here (replace * with . to get a correct http link):
forum*gsmhosting*com/vbb/f317/ot-4015x-firmware-arabic-bulgaria-africa-kenya-1946694/index2.html
It took me hours to find good stock ROMs (bulgarian & arabian then french via OTU) !
You'll have to "play" with pro_info and scatter file...
Good luck to all to unbrick your 4015x !
Regards,
Freeman.

[Q]How to backup & restore ROM on Tianji i9220 (Galaxy Note Copy)?

Hi!
1. I would like to flash ClockworkMod Recovery (or any other recovery method) on my Tianji i9220 device, because the phone hasn't got too many features, if i push volume+ +power button the Factory menu has only tests and reboot option, but i would like to flash another rom on the device, but i don't want to try until i haven't got a recovery option. If someone can help me, it would be nice! (I installed goomanager and i can enter to cwm recovery mode from it, but if i would like to flash the cmw to the phone, idk which version sould i choose)
The device is already rooted, with this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1872072 (the webtrickz one)
2. If do you now any other method to backup and restore my ROM it would be good to me! I found a tool called Smart Phone Flash tool. I think it can do it, but i don't know how. Correct me if this program has other purposes.
(If anyone has some patience and would like to help me, you can add me on msn or skype by kanduur_patrik[.-at-.]hotmail.com thanks!)

Well, you know what, you might as well forget about the German
1.) download the flash tool here: http://sdrv.ms/SVnuBD to the folder c:\users\[your username]\SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1.222.00
2.) run c:\windows\System32\hdwwiz.exe.
3.) choose "Choose hardware manually from a list"
4.) choose "Show all devices"
5.) choose "Disk..." , point to the c:\users\[your username]\Downloads\SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1.222.00\MTK6577 VCOM USB Driver\usb2ser_Win7_864.inf
6.) choose "MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port"
7.) accept to install a non-signed driver even if Windows warns you to do it
8.) remove your Tinji's battery
9.) run the flash tool
10.) click on "Scatter-loading" and open the "MT6577_Android_Scatter_emmc" scatter file
11.) untick "BOOTIMG" and "ANDROID", double-click on "RECOVERY"
12.) choose the "cwm_recovery.img" file
13.) click on "Download"
14.) ignore the "Download Warning"
15.) re-insert the battery, press "Vol Up" [or "Vol Down"]on your Tinji and connect it with the computer
16.) the flash tool should start flashing the modified recovery.img, you might keep pressing "Vol Up", it's not necessary, but anyway the flashing doesn't take long
17.) done!
You can now restart your Tinji anytime you want in recovery, either from Goo Manager or from ROM Manager (funnily enough, pressing "Vol Down" on starting the phone didn't work anymore lately).
Whenever you need your original ("Android system recovery <3e>") recovery, you'll find it under c:\users\[your username]\Downloads\SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1.222.00\recovery.img to re-flash it. [Edit 4/12/12: does for some reason not seem to work, AC]
If there's still problems on installing the driver under 6.) and/or you are running Windows other than 7 or 8 and/or other than x64 [64 bit], let me know.
In case of any other problems, feel free to ask!
Thank you!
I will try it, do you know which roms working well with this phone?

Big thanks go out to javum from forum.china-iphone.ru!
hello, I'm Italian, sorry for my bad english ...
I have a tinij i9220 (rooted) and I would like to load the recovery, I downloaded your TWRP, which contains the file recovery.img. To load it on my tinij, I use a tool that I found in the market: mobileuncle Tools, in the menu of the application, there is a function to overwrite the stock recovery: Recovery Update. In this way it would be easier than using SP FLASH TOOL.
you think it's dangerous? I DO NOT HAVE THE BACKUP of my phone.
thanks for everything.

Hey Massimo,
I'm German sorry for my bad Italian...and for your prime minister too, hehe...
I just don't know about mobileuncle - the screenshots were all Chinese, I never downloaded it.
Became addicted to SP Flash Tools - you might notice my signature
First thing I did I backed up my phone - did not work for the recovery which I don't need anymore anyway but worked fine for the system.img and boot.img.
Have bricked my phone since then a hundred times and SP always made my day saving me in the end.
I think it's dangerous to not have a backup. But not for you as have have *my* backup (of system.img + boot.img) which you might download at any time.
I never wrote what happened after installing TWRP - I like it very much, and it's easier than Clockworkmod and it has touch screen functionality and I knew it from my ZTE Skate before but - believe it or not it does not work with the fact that the Tinji has an internal SD card.
I mean maybe I just did not find the option, but I backuped (on the internal SD card) and then was unable to restore for TWRP couldn't find the internal SD much different than Clockworkmod.
So I reflashed Clockworkmod and keep sticking to it ever since.
Have fun,
Alessandro
thanks for the quick reply, so you advise me to use SP FLASH TOOL and CWM, right? To do my first backup I first load the CWM, I do not think there is a way to backup without CWM ...
See you soon

Well, how would you get the CWM on the phone if not with SP Flash Tool?
By just downloading the ROM Manager from Google Play - that was my idea, did not work
Me, I recommend SP, but that's strictly personal.
Whenever you flashed the CWM recovery, you can happily start backuping!

[HELP] 9300+ (mtk6577) PMT corrupted - can't upgrade firmware

Hi.
My 9300+ (chinese mtk6577) is dead... I have to updated wrong firmware and my phone will don't turn ON again, when I use the SP Flash Tool appears the message: "Firmware Upgrade could not be executed without PMT. Please "Download" ONLY first to create PMT on the target!
My internal partition is corrupted and i can't create PMT because my phone don't Turn On, but my USB is recognized by windows.
Please Help Me.

I know this is an old post, but this may help someone. (would have me a month ago)
Hopefully if your USB is seen in Windows you can convince SP Flash Tool to spew/download/write data to your phone while it's in Meta Mode.
I believe the PMT block is created by SP Flash Tool dynamically from scatter file. It's comparing the scatter file with what is sitting at the PMT address on the flash. If these two mismatch, you get the error you mentioned. If you want to force a new PMT that matches your scatter file's layout, you have to do a "Format" in SP Flash Tool. This will get you back to a PMT on flash that matches your scatter file, then SP Flash Tool will be happy and allow you to use Download (write to flash).
What is a PMT? A partition table that holds the addresses to all the other partitions.

I faced the same error.......my PMT got corrupted (possibly due to an earlier attempt to re-size (system / data) partition using Swiftbootloader)...... & un-fortunately, I clicked on Format in SP Flash Tool as well.
Now all is gone.... phone doesn't switch on.........
Please guide...... to bring the bricked handset (Spice Mi-350n) to life again. I have backups..... but that relate to different scatter file (PMT) perhaps........ do I need to search & learn webos & acmeinstaller kind of things now?

did u manage to resolve this problem. I am also facing this problem after attempting to re-size the partition using meteos mtk6589 rom edit apk .... Although my phone is still working properly without any issue, i am unable to root or install CWM by any means (tried mtk mobileuncle tools, tried spflash tool) but not working. Can you guide me how to root and install cwm as i am unable to revert to my old backup w/o cwm.

The best way to restore your phone was already answered in the previous post, that is to FORMAT your device and subsequently flash the official firmware.

Hi iZLeeP
Thanks for the quick reply. I dont have any official rom. The only backup i have is using the CWM backup of the official rom before applying a custom LG rom. If it is possible, how can i utilize the CWM backup of the official rom to revert back please ? I can see boot.img and recovery.img files in cwm backup; can i utilize them somehow to revert back ? Please help. Thanks.

Let me remind people, the first order of business must be to have a full firmware backup from the phone manufacturer or thru MTK Droid Root & Tools. Reading that you tried to resize your system & data partition, your cwm backup should not be affected by it. Try restoring to default the partition sizes using the app/script you used to resize. It should have that function. Then flash custom recovery and root and see if it works.
phone booting to main-screen or not?
hi HNaseer....
As replied by @syserr & @iZLeeP .............you can try to "Format-All / Format-All except bootloader" type of thing PROVIDED THAT YOU HAVE COMPLETE BACKUP OF RELEVANT PARTITIONS (till Cache and / or till FAT partition length) using SP Flash Tool........ & MTK Droid Tool......... PLUS, YOU WILL NEED IMEI BACKUP (IMEI No.) in such case if you want to restore.
SP Flash Tool needs Scatter File......... (obtainable thru MTK Droid Tool) & can help in backup of various partitions even if phone not turning on. BUT IMEI backup would be good........ IF YOU ARE ABLE TO BOOT / reach main screen after boot animation.
Rest of the details can be first read / understood from my MT6589 chipset type handset link from @Atrvscet : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2514419
Or, better search exact thread on xda / elsewhere to get stock / custom rom & flashing etc.
Lastly, if you are able to boot in recovery, best thing should be to flash / force flash original cwm backup from recovery.

HNaseer.... I agree with everything spandrd just said. I'd like to stress though, getting a backup of your NVRAM partition is much better than having MTKDT copy your /data/nvram. So if you have a choice, backup the NVRAM partition with SPFT or if MTKDT has that option use it. (I've rarely used MTKDT as I found aspects confusing)
Incredible.
Thank you so much. HAd almost given up hope...

HNaseer.... I agree with everything spandrd just said. I'd like to stress though, getting a backup of your NVRAM partition is much better than having MTKDT copy your /data/nvram. So if you have a choice, backup the NVRAM partition with SPFT or if MTKDT has that option use it. (I've rarely used MTKDT as I found aspects confusing)

Not sure what you are expecting to do with a FORMAT. If you had a good backup of your NVRAM partition, then what you would need is a SCATTER file and ROM files, you could FORMAT then DOWNLOAD the ROM files and your NVRAM file to your device with SPFT. But since you don't have your NVRAM partition, you don't have an easy path. FYI, I don't know new devices... there could be more complication than MT6577/75.

Try google, or search xda, or needrom.com...
This may or may not help you. If I were you I would use SPFT right now to try to backup your NVRAM partition if it's not too late. Your FORMAT may have wiped the NVRAM partition already. If it has wiped it, your only good path is to find someone willing to give you their NVRAM partition. Then somehow insert your own IMEI and WIFI MAC in and pray.

[Q] MT 6575 Rooting & Unknown rom type installation question

So. I deceided to join this forum in order to ask for some help from all those people I saw while searching the net.
I have to admit I am quite a noob with mobile systems, although I have gone way too far the last 3 days!
Here is the problem: I have an mt6575 processor phone in which want to add Greek Language settings. I have downloaded a folder form the manufacture's site, but it didn't contain any instructions. Just some .bin files (ALICE.BIN VIVA.bin, SANSTAR50_6464_11B_BOOTLOADER_V005_MT6250_MAUI_11B_W11_32_SP_V1.bin and ZIMAGE_ER.bin)and a scatter file that can not be read by flash tool (scatSANSTAR50_6464_11B.txt).
After a lot of reading around here and a lot of other forums and sites I realised that in order to do anything, I had to root my phone. I wasn't able to do it through superclick or mtk droid tools so I followed the instructions I found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160490&styleid=18
However, I am stuck on the final step.. I can't seem to get my phone on cwm mode... In fact I am not sure I know what exactly this is. I manage to open my phone on the android recovery utility but I am not able to make any choice. Everytime I press some of the menu's choises an android robot with an exclamation mark fills the screen and nothing happens...
Anyway..even if I manage to finalize the rooting process.. I still don't know what to do with the files I have... should I use them somehow on flash tool?
By the way.. The files come with a tool called Multiport Download Flash Tool which looks like Sp flash tool but has too many port options.
I'd be glad if someone helped me with this!
Thank you in advance,
Irene
1. Dump your stock recovery image then make a cwm or twrp (preferably twrp) from yueweng's thread for mediatek devices via old cwm or twrp port tool
2. Flash it via sp flash tool (download MTK 6575 scatter from internet)
3. Then reboot into recovery and if in twrp then reboot and it will ask you to root it or not
Or
If in cwm then download supersu Flash zip file and flash it
You have root access now
Press thanks if helped

Prestigio 3404 need stock boot.img, and system.img (for flash using fastboot)

I tried to install custom rom on my phone. Flashed wrong recovery, after changed to working recovery (which i had previously) phone didnt detect sim cards. I think it was because of system so thats why need system.img. And boot.img because read somewhere to flash boot.img using fastboot, so flashed and phone have bootloop now. Thank you from the mountain. So I think if i flash boot.img and system.img with fastboot it will work fine again.
EDIT: Found stock rom at russian forums gsmforums.ru and 4PDA forum
Phone working but I still have problem that it can't read SIM cards. It's dual sim and both sim cards don't working tried with some other cards and don't work too. Someone have any idea? It's wrong recovery flash problem? :/ Because phone can't read cards since i flashed wrong recovery and returned to working one. Thanks, hope for fast reply.
Help
I have found the ROM but it would be helpful if you could link it too. I haven't flashed android before and don't know how to do it properly, so it would be of great help if you could tell me how you did it. I have tried few things but with no success.

Sorry for the really late reply, but I've bought 3 new phones already in the meantime so I stopped watching the forum for the solution. Here's the link for the stock rom: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/d126368659a8/KK_4.4.2_stock_ Prestigio 3404 Duos.7z You should be able to download it without any problems. If You encounter some problems then tell me in next reply and I'll upload the rom to the other hosting site. Next thing You should download is a file from this link: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/c1e9138eac6e/backup.7z It contains scatter file which includes required info for SP Flash Tool to flash the image. Extract both files to the same folder on Your desktop so it'll be easier to find them. To flash the rom You have to download and install SP Flash Tool. It would be best if You'd follow the tutorial on YouTube like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CxDF2pkdCQ Here's the link to SP Flash Tool official site: https://spflashtool.com/ In the flashtool You should select download agent which is inside the tool folder and is most likely named something like "MTKallinoneDL". Then You should select scatter file from the rom folder which is named something like "mt6752_android_scatter" The next step is to select the "download only" option from the menu. You should follow the video on how to install the drivers and what steps You should take to connect the device correctly to the pc. So once again:
1. Download all the files and extract them:
* https://cloud.mail.ru/public/d126368659a8/KK_4.4.2_stock_ Prestigio 3404 Duos.7z << stock rom
* https://cloud.mail.ru/public/c1e9138eac6e/backup.7z <<scatter file etc.
* https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087012126 <<mtk preloader drivers
* https://spflashtool.com/download/SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1824_Win.zip << Latest version of SP Flash Tool
2.Install the MTK preloader drivers as shown in the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=219&v=sADkzyI8Z5Q
3.Open SP Flash tool and select download agent, scatter file and select "download only" option from the drop down menu. (NOTE: You should open SP Flash Tool as administrator to avoid any problems)
4.Select checkboxes for ANDROID, BOOTIMG, RECOVERY.
5.Click the downlaod button (before connecting Your phone)
6.Connect Your phone without battery to Your pc.
7.Now wait untill the message window pop-ups with "download OK" message.
If You have trouble using the SP Flash Tool here's another video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKpt0TLE6_A NOTE: If You flash Your phone with "FORMAT ALL AND DOWNLOAD" You could erase Your IMEI partition which will result in another problems with phone calls etc. It's best if You select download only and select only these 3 partitions I mentioned earlier. If You encounter any problems please let me know in Your future reply.

I hope so. ?
Finally I succeed in installing a non standard recovery and in getting root permission.
I don't know if someone is still interested in such device, but here is the material you need.
In the enclosed zip you'll find:
recovery.img: it's a PhiltZ touch recovery (based on CWM), the only one I got working because it uses the phisical buttons of the phone. In this device the touch is not working in recovery mode. I tested all the main functions (wipe, install, backup e restore), and they are all working, the minor ones are untested. This recovery reads and writes only from internal storage (not from the external SD). To install it, you need "SP Flash Tool", which can be downloaded from Mediacom site, in the relative device page.
MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin e MT6735M_Android_scatter.txt: are the "download-Agent" and the "Scatter loading file" you have to use in SP Flash Tool to flash the recovery. The scatter file is already setted to flash only the recovery, not other parts of the firmware. Be sure, before flashing, that only recovery item is checked in the Download page of SP Flash Tool, with the proper recovery path in "Location".
BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip: it's the zip archive to get root permission. Install it via recovery, after you have tested that the recovery is working for you.
recoveryORG.img: it's the original recovery, for restoring purposes. Install it (if you need to restore your phone to the original state) with SP Flash Tool, in the same way.
N.B.: Of course, I do not take any responsabilities about brick or problems may occur to your phone after using this material. . If you decide to use it, you do at your risk, aware that this type of changes always involves a minimum of risk if something goes wrong.
