I own a Tecno Spark 4 KC8 Android 10 Device having a MediaTek chipset. I tried to install TWRP on it. First I flashed an empty vbmeta.img file on it and all went well. Secondly, I flashed twrp.img and all still went well. Problem came in when I tried to reboot to recovery. By all methods, the phone booted to the stock recovery instead of twrp making me to think that my mission of flashing twrp was not effective, so I decided to close the bootloader. Then when I tried to boot up my phone using "fastboot reboot," this is where the turning point came in. My device is stuck at the logo interface and it goes on and off repeatedly with the following message displayed each time it tries to reboot
"Red State
Your device has failed verification and may not work properly
Please download boot image with correct signature or disable verified boot
Your device will reboot in 5 seconds"
And that is it. 5 seconds is now "thy kingdom come" and it seems only low battery will even cause the phone to shutdown as the battery is not removable
Please I need help. I have the SP Flash tool and Stock Firmware but I am not sure there's likely to be a fix as I can't even go to recovery mode or use any adb/fastboot command. Also there's no Tecno Service Center in my area

wow this is straight forward. Now a few questions. Please answer them accordingly
1. After doing all these do I need to connect my phone through USB?
2.Will Flash tool auto detect my phone?
3. How do I choose options; format, readback? Or will the options show up if my phone is autodetected?
4. Finally which option should I choose depending on the state of my phone? The phone does not boot. It comes into boot screen and turns back off after 5 secs and it has been in this state since the problem originated (I don't know if this is the state called bootloop). Do I format or reedback or which option?
Please answer my questions as asked so that I will best understand

No IMEI, No Baseband, No Backup? - SOLUTION ~ Soft Bricked from No IMEI, No Baseband, No RIL, No WiFi MAC, BT MAC, comms etc.
DISCLAIMER:
*What you done to your phone is at your OWN RISK, you choose to do this modifications to your phone and don't blame me if anything goes wrong.
Preface:
Recently I have noticed many people who tried to flash Custom ROM's on P780 and causes the phone to lose IMEI, Baseband, RIL, WiFi MAC, BT MAC, SN, comms etc. and causes connectivity issues (including me), which renders our phone turned into a "AndroidPod" media device that cannot make calls, SMS etc. As an example, my phone which faced the exactly same problem.

}
See the IMEI and baseband are still there in factory mode!!!
What could cause this is problem to occur is probably during ROM flashing process, the installer probably wiped out the /data/nvram (folder/partition). The /data/nvram (folder/partition) is the heart of your phone of all communicating feature, if the (folder/partition) is corrupted, just like I said, no communication features.
*Actually the baseband is there, but because the /nvram (folder/partition) has corrupted, the Android OS were unable to recognize it thus showing Unknown.
So no backup = Phone dead? Nothing but a media player?
First step, ensure your phone:
On Stock ROM
Rooted
PC have ADB drivers installed (If you don't have it please ask Uncle Google :good
Well, that isn't true, recently I found out, the phone can actually be easily recovered (on most MediaTek devices) and gain at least those comm features back by simply delete the whole /nvram (folder/partiton). If your phone coldn't recognize SIM card, wait a while after deleted the folder, your phone should have signal after maximum 10 seconds of waiting.
*In most of the cases MobileUncleTools give AT command failed to send probably the /nvram folder is corrupted, simply delete the NVRAM folder and reboot will do.
For WiFi MAC address fix (WiFi NVRAM WARNING: ERR 0x10), because the solution already been posted, so please click here.
Bluetooth MAC address fix: Firstly, using any File Explorer with Root abilities navigate to /data/nvram/APCFG/APRDEB/BT_Addr and also a BT_Addr file under /data, then copy both files to your PC. Then open up the file by using Hex Editor (HHD Hex Editor). To fix a static MAC address, just simply type in your MAC address on the first row (0000) from column (00-05). That is what your MAC address should be (Edit both files with the same MAC address). After you have modified it, put it back in the exact location and remember to change permission.
Actually you can also get restore your IMEI, WiFi MAC, BT MAC, SN by restoring a backup created by MTKDroidTools with other exact same model as your phone.

If not working after you've reflash the ROM, try delete the /nvram folder. Make a backup of the folder first with MTKDroidTools before delete!!!. (Although it is corrupted)

Hi. Look close here what i am writing.
First step is to download from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/development/rom-lenovo-p780-pre-rooted-official-t2553725
this: P780_ROW_S124_140403_rooted_twrp_gapps.7z
and from here flash tool: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760972674
Second step is to unzip ROM and flash tool in separate folders.
Third step is to open flash tool.
After you open flash tool look in that picture i uploadet and see where you must introduce the scatter file is number 1. Press that button and browse in to the rom directory for the scatter file.
After that check DA/DLa with check button is number 2. DO NOT FORGET THIS STEP. IS CRUCIAL.
POWER OFF YOUR PHONE.
Press firmware upgrade button is near number 3, and after this insert the cable in to the phone. Flashing should start.

Unbricking
UNBRICKING
If your Mi3 is bricked then Follow below methods to unbrick-
If your device is in bootloop and you have a rom package in your memory and CWM or another rom with TDB then follow-(SOFT BRICK)
In bootloop state Hold power button for 8 sec and your device will be turned off and again turn on but press vol+ button immediately before tuning on the screen and you will be able to enter recovery.Thats it wipe data,dalvic,cache partition and format system and flash your rom.
If you have another rom with TDB then just change active system partition and reboot.
IF your device is in boot-loop and you do not have any rom package into memory/no other rom with TDB or not booting into recovery or not turning on then follow-(HARD BRICK)
Install fastboot drivers ,MiPhone tools and fastboot rom from above download section and install fastboot drivers and MiPhone Tools
Now on device press the Volume– key and the Power button at the same time to enter Fastboot mode, then connect the phone to a computer.(if there’s a security prompt, please select Allow)
Extract the fastboot rom and copy address of folder from address bar.just like in pic

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Open MiFlash.exe and paste the address copied in the last step into the address bar. Click on the first button to Refresh, and MiFlash will automatically recognize the phone. Then click the second button to flash.
Wait until the progress bar on MiFlash is green, which means the ROM is successfully flashed, and the phone will automatically boot.
In case you facing bootloop and you have no rom in storage and no rom on TDB but your CWM recovery is Opening then you can Mount OTG usb device formatted with Fat32 with rom inside and flash it and boot. (SOFT BRICK)
If no other method worked then you should search more on internet or PM me i will try to help as much i can.Or visit Service center.

I double-checked even triple-checked the address in MiFlash tool. It is correct.
The point to be noted here is that the error message is seeking the file "flash_all_except_storage.bat" in the Images folder in the decompressed ROM Directory. Is there any such file in the Images folder? I could not find it in the Images folder when I decompressed the ROM.

If you do not see that .bat file in the decompressed folder then just choose any of the available .bat files there.
Just take note that the flash_all.bat will wipe the phone, the other one will keep the current files and will just flash (dirty install) the ROM.

As you said, you can not install an OTA update if you have rooted the phone and/or you have made changes in system files, you need to restore the system (not a factory reset) to its original stated. You need stock recovery too.
You can use Flash Tool to flash the original ROM from Zopo, but be sure you uncheck the USERDATA mark if you don't want to loose your files/programs/configuration...... Once you have the original system back, you have to apply all the OTA's until you reach the last 20151016.
Once you are in the last version make sure to backup boot.img and system before you root the phone again, so next time you can only restore using that backup instead of flash the original Rom, so you only will need apply the last OTA.
If you want to use it, I made a bakcup from the last 20151016 system and boot using Flash Tool > Read Back optión, so if you flash this backup you will have your system updated directly.
https://mega.nz/#!xVpglLIL!uo6Bik6LO5aHiFuPxG5HH0fxGytXUhiPDuXofxDul2Q
Just unzip the files and use Flash Tool to flash the needed files (boot.img, system.img and trustzone.bin) using the scatter file included to make it less confusing. (Speed 7, not for Speed 7 Plus).
Regards.
Thank you elperroderoke, i have used your backup with no problem, the strange thing though is that the update had to solve "third part launcher is not setted after restart" but i've the same problem after every phone restart i lost about half number of icon on launcher.

Hi elperroderoke, there is another update, can you give me your updated backup as last time?

This phone can be very simply rooted with NewKingrootV4.52_C127_B227_xda_release_2015_09_28_105243.apk
After doing that you would like to remove kinguser and related files, and replace it with the well known SuperSU.

Kingroot and framaroot doesn't work.
how can i root new update 6 MM on speed 7? any method ?
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.

You can use miflash tool.but it only work when your phone can reach fastboot mood.but when you brick your phone then your phone can not reach fastboot and recovery mode.then you have to use sp flash tool
You can solve your brick problem by useing miflash tool but redmi 9 is a mtk processor phone and it have no edl mode...
I think you understand.

I never had a problem where xiaomi was unable to go to fastboot mode. I never needed to go to edl mode. Although this is the 1st time i am using an mtk xiaomi phone. Btw do i use the same fastboot rom to flash using sp flash tool?

Yes sp tool use same fastboot rom....
Welcome to mtk....
This processor is not good for development. If anything go wrong then you must brick it...it is very easy to brick...
Then you go to xiaomi service center or use this tool...
I also bricked my phone and yes the Mi Flash Pro contains the Secure Boot DA (Download Agent) Loader file for our Redmi 9 (MT6769). I messed up the bootloader so I formatted the entire flash memory hence relocking it in the process! Waiting another 366 hours to unlock! MediaTek devices are so easy to brick like the OP mentioned.
It's not working for me , Redmi 9 (Lancelot). I have hard bricked phone and everytime I tried to flash it it is saying " status_brom_cmd_fail (0xc0060005)"

Then you select the specific download agent file which is.

I am very happy to know that this method is worked for you.
You're look your device it is not a big problem it is better then go to customer centre to fix your phone... But I am afraid that when miui 12 release then this method may not work

I have used miflash tool pro, but still no success . Can you maybe share the authentication (.auth) file ?
Thanks in advance
I join the request, I can't get my redmi 9 back, I download my flash pro from the URL they put, I try to flash unchecking preload and it throws an error, the DA that comes in my flash tool is: DA_6765_6785_6768_6873_6885_6853.bin and I'm using global firmware scatter 11.0.7.0

I think your bootloader is lock.. my bootloader is unlocked then this process is work for me so locked bootloader maybe some issue....
It does not actually turn on the redmi screen and the unlocked padlock appears, after that only a black screen appears and it detects the device only as adb, already if I connect it with vol - if it detects the sp tool

I I am not talking about your lock screen. I talked about your bootloader. Do you unlock your bootloader with mi unlock tool
We are talking about the same thing, I also mean the bootloader, when you turn on a Xiaomi device with an unlocked bootloader, an open mini padlock appears, that indicates that if it is unlocked, I unlocked the bootloader, I tried to install magisk and that was when my device was bricked
