This is a last ditch effort to restore your phone to working order. This should only be used if your phone DOES NOT BOOT AT ALL or if you are unable to boot into FASTBOOT.
If you can boot into Fastboot mode then I would encourage you to flash using Mi Flash tool.

Tested! Howto Unbrick Redmi 9C (angelica) without using auth account
This blog has move and will not be update again.For new update please open ▶▶
langithitam.wordpress.com
First you need to extract the MTK bypass tool which is crucial as it will allow us to flash without requiring Auth file. NOTE: you need to disable antivirus or it will delete file.
Your PHONE NEEDS TO BE OFF! There is no need to unplug battery from the phone, I tested it myself and as long as the phone is OFF it'll still work. If your phone cannot power down due to bootloop, then you must remove backcover and unplug battery or just wait till battery runs out.
Once you have started the MTK bypass tool, choose MTK6765 from option that says auto and this is only for Redmi 9C. Now press on the bypass button a ad it will wait for you to connect your phone via USB. DO NOT CONNECT YOUR PHONE PRIOR TO THIS. Hold only the VOLUME UP button when connecting the USB cable to your phone and ensure the phone is OFF. ONCE you connect the phone, it will immediately respond and show a log saying its completed (SEE SCREENSHOT BELOW).
Once this step is completed leave your phone connected as you will soon start the flashing process. Open up SP FLASH TOOLS and run as admin. You will need to load the scatter file which is included in the Fastboot ROM under images folder. Once you have the scatter file loaded, SP tools will proceed to load all image files which will be used to flash phone so be patient.
Ensure that DOWNLOAD ONLY option is chosen as format and download option will format your IMEI also. Once all files have been loaded then just press the DOOWNLOAD button and wait to complete. Once done you can power ON the phone and it should boot.
Very good guide.
Thank you very much
No problem hope it'll help a few guys out there sure helped me a lot

I'm using a Redmi 9c I tried to unlock it but failed in the process. Later I get absolutely no response from the phone, I cant open fast boot or recovery. I tried connecting it to the pc but it shows the same exact problem you are facing. I tried all USB ports and switched cables back and forth but no success. I tried pressing volume up, down and all sorts of combinations, still no success. Any fix for this?

Follow the guide step by step, it should work and if doesn't then you should try disconnecting the battery
great guide on fixing a hard brick.
My compliments and thank you very much indeed to you for writing this very good and detailed guide. My Redmi 9c bootlooped after trying to install Lineage OS, of course no way to go to fastboot mode anymore (I'm a rather experienced custom ROM installer though). Although I asked for help in a separate thread, I got no answer for a couple of months now until I found this thread. I never gave up my Redmi 9C so I now followed you instructions and with success!! I will refer people to your thread of course. There is no doubt many can save their phone by reading you instructions.

I can do this for a Redmi 9a?
Using the same download agent
Hello, i did it but i did the mistake to do a FORMAT AND DOWNLOAD.
No my phone juste diplsay the Redmi logo a few second then power off.
I'm still able to go on the Sp Flash Tools and flash again. Anyone could help me please ?
hello sir so i recently hard bricked my redmi 9c nfc by installing older MIUI version that it came with. It was just black screen all the time and nothing. Tried this guide, mtk bypass tool worked but on sp flash tools i am greeted with this message.
Everything is acting like expected according to the video, but wheb I have used the mediatek bypass tool with green OK and stuff and when i start to press download on the smart phone flash tool, it just stucks at 0. Nothing happens, except that everything is greyed out and is trying to load it. If i boot my phone myself with the brom it says hint:add a authentication file or ask for help. I cant manage to finish it.
The error in Mediatek bypass tool about handshaking error is probably because i did it several times, because i didnt manage to load smartphone flash tool as attached below
This is my last hope to recover my brandew phone. Thanks for the good tutorial, but it didt work out. If someone could save me then I would be grateful

thanks for reply
my device is china MT6572 with android 4.2.2
I have use a very very very superb tool named "MtkDroidTools v2.48" and bricked my newly purchage tablet.
1. I click on root and happy thing is that tablet got rooted. wow
2. I have created backup from this tool and after few minutes, many *.img backup files are created on my pc and my tab's sdcard. wow again
3. After restarting the tab it restarting again & again and not booting. really a "heart attacking wow".
I have tried following steps
1. In default "android stock recovery 3e" trying to restore backup files and got message "installation aborted" everytime. same message from using "adb sideload command"
2. creating a scatter file from this tool and load backup in "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1343.01" tool. but no any tool connect my tab. it says no device.
3. only "adb sideload" from stock recovery has the way to connect to the pc. but I don't know which kind of files are used at there??
During the backup process a log file created by MtkDroidTools has attached for details information.
then plz tell me. what I do for get again a "relaxed wow"??
Load scatter file and back up files in SP Flash tool. Power your tablet off, hit download button in SP Flash tool then connect tab to pc.
If you have the preloader driver installed SP flash tool should connect and start flashing firmware to phone. Do you hear the connecting sound when you connect powered off tablet to pc? If not, you may need to press and hold Vol Down, Vol up, or menu button while connecting tab to pc.
Hope this helps and good luck!

Ok, no need to hit a combo of buttons, only 1 button you need to press while connecting tab to PC. Please retry following the directions from my last post again
Yes, preloader will only show for a few seconds in device manager before it turns off. Preloader is only for reflashing firmware. When it enables itself, it is looking for the SP FT (or other firmware flashing programs) to be there to catch it, if not preloader shuts itself off.. Your download of SP Flash Tool should have included the needed preloader drivers. Then you load files in SP FT and hit download button then connect tab to PC.

Thank you very very very very much. Finally I have got a wow.
After many efforts, I resolved the tablet booting issue. It is possible due to only your valuable suggestion.
steps are here:
1. connect tab to pc & installing preloader usb drivers.
2. getting VID & PID of tablet usb connection.
3. modifying "SP FT settings files" with new values of my tab.
4. creating a scatter file from droid tool & load in SP FT.
5. Flashing backup to the tab successfully.
You are such a genius. I have been wasted a lot of time since a week for getting the right answer. During this period I had connected to many android experts at many sites. but no satisfaction answer.
And u are really amazing. You have got the real problem in only three conversation. really great.
Well I m a windows expert. If u feel any technical problem regarding servers or windows, ask me, I will try my best.
I am launching a website soon named "GeniusPepoleofWorld.com". Many technical experts & genius people will listed there in different categories like Android experts, Windows experts, Linux Experts, Robotics Experts, Electronics xtra xtra. I want to add you at top there in Android Expert list. Now site is under constructions. I want to know your name & personal mail-id like gmail etc. When I will finish my site, I will inform you.
One more thing I want to know that "what is the use of stock recovery & adb sideload, which files types are used with it?"
Plz plz reply this with your name and mail-id.
Thanks a lot again

I am happy to hear it worked for you. Nice job Raj! I am just passing on the knowledge I learned here on XDA (Thank @rua1 he made MTK DroidTools and without that tool alot of folks with MTK devices wouldn't have root, stock firmware back up files, or working recovery
Anyhow, as for your last 2 questions. Stock recovery is used for flashing officially signed update files from your device manufacturer (If they were to make an update that is lol) This is how all android devices are able to accept ota updates, they download the file to phone/tablet then reboot into recovery and then it flashes the downloaded file to the device.
Adb sideload allows you to connect the device to a PC and then upload a firmware file to device to be flashed via recovery instead of downloading it directly to the phone. This is useful if you had an officially signed stock firmware file for your device stored on your pc. Some custom recoveries also allow you to use adb sideload but since you have stock recovery you would be restricted to using only officially signed files.
Say for instance you were not able to get your device to boot properly, you would just need to boot tablet into recovery mode and then choose adb sideload. At this point you would connect tab to PC and then put your firmware file in the same folder you have adb.exe in. (Let's call the firmware file "firmware.zip" in this example) Then open command prompt in same folder that adb.exe is in and type "adb sideload firmware.zip" this would push the firmware.zip file to the device then flash it for you.
Since you were able to use MTK Droidtools to get root then make a back up, you should be able to also use it to make a custom recovery for your device too. When you made the back up, it will usually make 2 back ups, one on your pc that you use SP FT to flash files and restore your device then it also makes a back up on your devices sd card that is flashed through custom recovery to restore your device. This would make restoring your device pretty easy if you need to do so again and it will also allow you to restore without needing a PC to do it.
Hope this helps!

I've got the exact same problem with my phone... My phone, Celkon A15 (Indian brand) also has the same chipset number and while trying to root using MTKdroids tool, I have managed to get it in the boot looping stage.
I'm just curious on how you managed to get the pre-loader installed for this? I CAN NOT get the SP Flash tools to detect my phone for the life of me. Also, when I load my scatter file, it has the "PRELOADER" section in RED... and when I try to upload the preloader.bin from my backup files, it says... "Load file "*path name*" fail!"
I am still struggling to understand how the SP Flash tool works and if it would be able to get my phone alive again (well it did help you out, so I am bit optimistic).
Please HELP!

Hi
1. First you have connect your device to pc.
2. you have to open the device manager and keep your eyes on a new hardware found at device manager, when you start up your device.
3. Preloader will only show for a few seconds in device manager before it turns off.
3. install preloader drivers.
4. open SP Flash tool and load scatter file and set path for your backup files.
5. Click download button and reboot your device.
6. Software will catch your device and finally backup will be restored to your device.
I too have got same problem, i have infocus m2 with mt6582, i rooted with kingroot n used mtk droid tools for backup.after backup i tried to modify boot img and install cwm using mtk tools but now it wont boot up, nor it enters recovery mode, i tried to flash stock boot and recovery img through sp flashtool but its giving error (2004), plz help me plzzzz....
Recently while flashing alpha version of MIUI marshmallow on my Mi 4w, my phone got completely bricked. Complete brick in the sense, it won't turn on, neither charge nor show any led indication. This guide should work on other phones also.Let's start:-
1) Although it seems like your phone wont turn on, your phone is actually working, it's just it wont show anything on the screen(no display).
Make sure your phone is charged properly(it will charge even if the led doesn't show any indication).
2) Download and install Mi flash tool and then Fastboot file of your device. http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
3) Unzip the fastboot image, a folder containing flash all.bat should appear if not, extract the extracted file again. Winrar should work fine.
4) Now open Mi flash tool(as administrator) and select the fastboot folder from Mi flash using browse option and also select the proper fastboot script according to need.
Note: Flash_all.bat will completely erase your internal storage.
5) Now press volume down(-) and power key to enter into fastboot. Note: it won't show any visual whatsoever but it'll work.
6) Connect your phone to your pc. It should show various flash devices connected to your computer and those devices may continuosly connect and disconnect. If not it'll show QHUSUB_BULK install the driver using device manager.
7) On Mi flash tool, some device name should show on the devices list if not click refresh and try reconnecting the device. Note: If you dont have proper drivers installed on your pc, this procedure won't work.
8) Finally click on flash and flashing will start. It'll take some time. Once done it'll show operation completed successfully.
9) Finally boot your device using power key.
Brick has received QHSUSB_BULK simple. This is the normal and regular encounter. Hardbrick, you must check point.

How do I put the phone into fastboot mode if it is hard bricked? It won't turn on, I get no responce from phone. When I use method connecting test point to metal cover on mother board of phone usb connects to PC and MiFlash recognizes phone. Try to flash though and I get an error message. No matter what ROM I use, zipped, unzipped or tgz file. Can my phone be unbricked? What am I doing wrong? I have a Mi Max 64GB and am using HELIUM Roms. Please help. Error message is:
The filename, directory name, or volume label is incorrect.(0x8007007b: Open programmer "MPRG*.hex").
I have no clue. Not my first time flashing ROMs or unbricking a phone. It is my first time on a Xiaomi. Only done blackberry and samsung before.

Already pressed volume down and power button but nothing happened. And checking fastboot devices nothing comes up. Also in mi flash tool nothing.
So i wanted to flash a new firmware on my MTK Device (UleFone Power 2), but i ran into some Errors while doing so, thus , my phone died in the process.
Following Errors occurred, depending on which (SP Flash Tool;SPMultidownloadflashtool;etc) you use:
Errors:
Internal Buffer
STATUS_SEC_IMGHDR_TYPE_MISMATCH
Through digging and asking on the web, two wonderful and very very helpful people: alterogi and finally Sunray888
This solution popped up. Thank you so much to both of them!!
Solution:
But first: You are now warned, try this at your own risk.
Quoted from Sunray888, alterogi. Credits to them.
My German Guide (more detailed with Pictures): Outside of XDA
Side Note: For the UP2 Rom you use SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject , for the UK6P ROm you use SPFlashTool.
(Links & Attachments below!) (Adb-Fastboot.zip & Checksum.zip)
Part1:
1. Download all the files. (Below are the links and attached files.
2. Extract each zip to its own folder. Then Put the files of the Checksum.zip into the ROM Folder of the Ulefone Power 2.
3. Run the Checksum.exe and wait until it is done. It will show up in the black CMD when it's finished. A new Checksum.ini should be in the folder now.
Part2:
1. Make a backup of your NVRAM and NVDATA, a full ROM backup if you can.
2. Get the Oukitel K6000 Plus ROm Version 2.0 Ready. Extract it to its own folder somewhere on your desktop.
3. Open the SPFlashtool and select the android scatter file of the Oukitel Rom.
4. Connect your phone, hold Volume down and press on "Download" in the SPFlashTool. Now you wait for the process to end, WHILE still holding the button down.
5. After it is done flashing your new Firmware unto your phone, start it like you would normally do. Disconnect your phone now. You can now also skip the Setup Details, since we still have to flash the original Firmware.
6. Go to Device Infos on the bottom of your phone settings, tap a few times on Build Number until the Developer Options activate. Go back and tap on Developer Options.
7. In here you activate OEM Unlock and USB Debugging. Back to the pc: Now you open a CMD Windows and navigate to your extracted ADB-Fastboot Folder. (Some Pictures of this are on my German Tutorial Thread, Link above).
8.Connect your phone, tick the avaible spot of the upcoming new popup notification. Shutdown your phone now. Hold Volume Up and Power Button at the SAME Time until the Fastboot Menu pops up.
Make sure your phone is still connected to the pc.
9. In the cmd window you will now have to type the following thing: fastboot oem unlock
9.5 Another Method to get into fastboot mode: (OR enabled usb debug, accept connection between your PC and Ulephone and send command fastboot reboot bootloader after that "fastboot oem unlock")
10. After the process is done. You are still in fastboot mode.
And let the phone connected to the Pc.
11. Now you have to flash the original ROM/Firmware. In this case only Version 17 will work.
On this step i had a lot issues with "insufficient buffer"-Errors under SP Flash tool, but there is a solution for this.
Be careful :
Try to use #SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject Version 3.1620 - only this software worked for me,earlier Versions i tried ( v.3.1636 ) always showed an Error.
Current Status: Phone is still connected to pc, fastboot mode, oem has just been unlocked by yourself.
What to do now:
12 Open the SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject, load scatter file of the Ulefone Power 2 Firmware, then press scan. Nothing will happen now, so be quick: Don't disconnect your phone.
Press Volume Up + Power Button at the same time to simulate a new connection to the pc. While the phone is still connected via cable! We have to do this. You will now hear a sound which you normally would here when connecting a new device to your Pc. Now you just have to keep holding the Volume Up Key.
IMPORTANT:
Don't let go of the button until the Programm shows up a Green Tick which signals the end of the Process. Now you can let go of the button.
13. After the scan has finished, press start and flash firmware. But how? It's easy. Just do the same again. ->>
13.1 Press Start in the Flash Programm.
13.2 We have to simulate a new connection. Hold Vol+ and Power Button. Until you hear the sound again, now only keep holding the Vol+ Button.
14. Wait for the green Tick Notification. Until then: Don't you dare let go of the Vol+ Button. When it shows up, you're pretty much done. Congrats!
15. Restore NVRAM and NVDATA.[/I] through mtk engineering mode: open dialer and call *#*#3646633#*#* , scroll down to GRPS and type in your IMEI (can be found in the box, in which your phone came shipped with). If it says something like that it's successfully written.-> Activate Airplanemode, wait a few seconds, deactivate it, activate Mobile Data Connection and wait. It should show a mobile data active.
Download Links: (I didn't upload those files,i simply shared the links, all credits to their respective owners. Use at your own risk.!)
UP2 Rom: Google Drive
Flashtool for UP2 Rom: One Drive
UK6P 2.0 + Flashtool: Click me
Checksum Gen Zip: --Below--
ADB Components: --Below--
UPDATING:
After flashing V15 Ulefone Firmware, use the SP FLASH TOOL to flash the newest firmware via "Firmware Upgrade" mode. remember to keep pushing vol up before connecting phone!
How to:
Press Download in Tool
Push and hold vol up
Connect cable to pc.
wait until green tick shows up.
Profit.
Same situation here. I've tried flashing with and without battery, no success. I can confirm that I did NOT lock the bootloader. Not that it helps me much.
I've tried using different versions of SPFT in addition to the multiport tool, but they either don't work with Power 2 scatter file, or show the same error.
This can potentially be a driver / USB issue, so I will probably try that next (different computer, fiddle with the drivers). I've also seen claims that SPFT v3 can happily flash over this, and then newer versions start working too, so try that if you can. It did not work for me - the download never starts on my computer with v3.
I can also add that I can flash preloader as well, although I try and leave that off when possible. The modem and lk* partitions show the same error you have, though, and the phone is dead.
I have managed to resolve this with a lot of help from Vivanyok on 4pda.
1. Make a backup of your NVRAM and NVDATA, a full ROM backup if you can.
2. Download Oukitel K6000 Plus ROM v2.0. Only this version will work.
3. Flash it. It will actually work just fine, no errors. I've used the latest SPFT.
4. Boot the phone into Android. In Developer Options, enable OEM Unlock.
5. Reboot into fastboot, do fastboot oem unlock.
6. After this, you can simply flash any Ulefone ROM for Power 2. Win!
7. Restore NVRAM and NVDATA.
Hope this helps somebody.
Thanks for your reply!! I will try that and report back ! I'm so glad there are people out here who help !
EDIT: OMG, You are my hero!!! The Flash Process went just fine, no errors. It boots up. Thank you so much! Now i can flash like a devil again, haha
EDIT2: So i could use the phone with the oukitel rom but i want the original rom, firmware.
So here is the other Problem. I can't flash them. I either get insufficient buffer error or the imghdr error.
Could you link me what you are using? I really need the phone. Thanks for your help in advance.! :S
Hi sm00th4f3
I add some advices to Vivanyok instruction by red letters --->
I have managed to resolve this with a lot of help from Vivanyok on 4pda.

OR enabled usb debug, accept connection between your PC and Ulephone and send command
fastboot reboot bootloader
after that
fastboot oem unlock
6. After this, you can simply flash any Ulefone ROM for Power 2. Win!
on this step i had a lot issue with insuffitient buffer under SP Flash tool, but yesterday i win too.
be careful :
after oem unlocking you should NOT reboot ulephone to Android,let phone stay connected to PC
try use #SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject version 3.1620 - only this soft help me,earlier i tried v.3.1636 but always error appear.
and when i started flashing i stayed ulephone connected to usb (i dont disconnect phone after oem unlocking) and i simulated connection by long press volume UP + Power buttons. You can control connection by default PC sound.
due in SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject other interface i did not change flashing type, it was firware update by default.
After that my ulefone become alive.
7. Restore NVRAM and NVDATA.
good luck, if any questions ask me on 4pda.ru
So, i tried your nice guide, and it finally worked!! Side Note is: After fastboot oem unlock you have to scan with the #SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject version 3.1620 your phone first, and then like you have already said, use the volume up+power button combo to simulate a connection. and then it will be flashed. Holy crap. Thank you so much!!.
You are welcome, last three day i also tried flash my up2
Still same problem

Hi there,
Thanks for the instructions. I have succeeded to install the Oukitel V2.0 ROM on my Ulefone Power 2 and change OEM in Android and fastboot but still no success to flash the final Ulefone Power 2 phone ROM from the Ulefone web site. The flash process starts but after two or three download steps the flash tool (3.1620 in administrator mode) stops still with the STATUS_SEC_IMGHDR_TYPE_MISMATCH error.
I have also tried with another ROM coming from another site, but still same error.
Could perhaps provide me a download link to a ROM that you successfully flashed to the Ulefone Power 2?
Thanks for your help

cannot find the up2 rom which can be flashed after flashing Oukitel K6000 Plus ROM. Please help...
Download Links added. There shouldn't be any problems using my method as long as you think as well.
Be aware that you have to use the Flashtool i linked, the exact same Flashtool Version as mentioned. Otherwise go to my german thread outside of xda to get more detailed pics.
solved my problem
this was the solution for me, thanks a lot....
recovered!
Hello guys! Thanks for the instructions, it worked great! Only thing, the fastboot you supplied has an password, so I used another I found online.
I finally got time to take care of my bricked Power 2 phone, and I got it back to life using the Oukitel method.
The phone works great, I only had to input IMEI numbers manualy.
Is there a need to lock back the bootloader, because now my device says "orange state", your device cannot be trusted?
hm hm.... fastboot allows me to lock the bootloader, but then the phone would reset itself to factory state for security reasons, so I will leave my bootloader unlocked, as I don't want to go trough the phone app installation and getting the settings to my taste
i just updated the zip..there shouldn't be a password anymore. ^^
For us, there isn't really a need to lock the bootloader. Since we can simply install every ota update by downloading the new rom from external sites. Just a reminder: don't use the ota update app since it will brick or just not work, since your bootloader is unlocked.

don't forget to enable oem unlock (bootloader isn't unlocked yet after you do this)
then fast boot the phone with oukitel rom, unlock the bootloader with adb fast boot unlock
don't let go of the vol button while flashing the phone with multiport flash tools
don't use ulepfhone original cable, mine was not working ok although there was no visual damage to the cable. I used another one that fit the usb port on the phone more firmly

Thank you SubwayChamp for help.
No , TWRP is not installed now .
Yes, I think bootloader has been unlocked. It is done with Orange status.
I think it is in download mode. it detects SPFlash.

Ok, I guess that your device is actually in bootloop and don´t booting.
Tutorial that you followed has many steps and don´t need to do all this to just root device and it contains some files like lk.bin that you can´t be sure that should be for your device.
Some users use this file (lk.bin) of an unlocked device and think that flashng in other device then get unlock it but no need, your device can be unlock it just follow some commands in fastboot mode.
Now you can do the next;
Try to flash again your rom stock (I guess that you don´t have a backup), if for some reason your official tool doesn´t work then use only some images like boot, system and userdata with the scatter.txt to flash them through SP Flash Tool.
Here a link to TWRP https://youtu.be/6vj_BY6xJdA, you can root it with supersu v2.78 0r v2.82 and here some files that can be usefull too https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0BwJgeCYTpnEHNlg2VUlieHFTYVU&export=download
Update steps that you are following to can assist. What extension has your rom and if it is recogniced for SP Flash Tool. I didn´t ask you if you can enter to fastboot mode and if you can then you can know if your bootloader is unlocked typing fastboot oem info
Most info that you give and some screenie will help to understand better
Unfortunatly, it can not enter to fastboot or recovery mode. Those files in replay didn't work and i dont have a backup. I try to flash recovery.img, system.img and preloader_shine_plus.bin . All done but it still black screen and does not boot. But now it connect to Pc without disconect .
I cant add link or images to my post.

Gmail didn´t warn myself about your post. Did you solve it?
You said that flashed recovery, system and preloader but how, through SPFlashTool?, if yes, are you sure that this tool recogniced your device?
You forgot to flash boot.img too.
Other way to try; flash only preloader.bin and then try flashing boot, system and userdata that are the three most important partitions to can boot.
Like last resort you can do a Format all + flash but only like last.

I´m not sure if you are connecting correctly your device at right time and form to can flash it properly. Every device has more or less a specific way to do it. My last alcatel it was connected just with device power off and after to tap on download, but in other device Blu Dash was connected pressing just vol_up and my last mt6757 Bluboo had to press both vol up and down at time to connect to pc and after to tap on download option. To have sure that is well done increase volume in your pc, you will hear a first sound that is cause pc is recognicing but then you have to hear a second sound that is when SPFlashTool is recognicing device and you will see a red line in down side of the tool window, release button inmediately and let tool to work.
This is a good rom for your device according the author is optimized https://droid1311.blogspot.com/2017/08/alcatel-fl02-aka-flash-plus-2-via.html and this is the link directly if you have troubles with pop-up-adds https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwAGh1drb91SeDZwV1VXbXpjQWM/view
Also you can try with other versions of SP Flash Tool, most stable maybe should be v5,1628 https://androidmtk.com/smart-phone-flash-tool leth me know how you go
If I understant, the status bar has to be red then I will release the mobile button and click download in SPFlashTool.
SPFlashTool 5.1628:
I try all the way with and without pressing any button but no luck . And when it work finishing with error.
SPFlashTool 5.1628:
I try all the way to get that mode but nothing works. So I try to click download button then conect the phone by random buttons and every time i get red color , yellow , green ,purple , yellow (for many times 100%)
then i get this error:
ERR: STATUS-SEC-IMG-TYPE-MISMATCH (0xC002002A)

There is a part that is not variable in the way to use this tool, ever you have to tap on download before to connect device and is recommendable too connect cable usb to pc (not yet to device); from here is when the button that you have to press can vary but like I said you before in my last mt6757 (a very similar to yours) works pressing both vol at same time to connect terminal cable to device and now you will see a red line (could be violet-ish)
Try before just flashing only preloader file to recreate some partitions and then do other flash for the other files.
Of course you have to be sure that all drivers are installed correctly cause this tool needs to put your device in download mode (a special level) and also keep it in this state so find VCOM drivers for Alcatel and adb/fastboot installer and try to uninstalling some older drivers that you don´t use and many times we keep in our pcs and for a short data transmission can helo that all the rom move it in same folder where SPFlashTool is allocated.
After updating drivers and trying all the possibilities buttons the red line doesnt appear.

Ok, here there are somethings that we need to know
- First of all don´t forget to charge your battery, after many attempts could consume a lot.
- Your device is recogniced in fastboot mode? mtk has two variables ways to enter to, pressing both vol + pwr till an options menu appear, then you have to select, and the other method most known is vol down+ pwr to go diirectly
- In what android version are you, 6.0?
- What is the exact variant of your device, you can know maybe seeing in the box, this rom is for 5095K version 6.0 MM
- Did you try to flash just preloader, only this file?
If SPFlashTool don´t give signals of recognicing device is probably that your device is not now totally power off, try pressing pwr by 7 seconds, then try to flash again combining both vol with pwr button
Upload some screenshot about the process

Which option mode should appear? Screen is always black (off) all that i have on the phone is the LED.
I try more than 4 different drivers for Alcatel Flash Plus 2 (vcom & cdc) but no sound from SPFlash to prove that it recognise the phone. Sounds just release and keep relrease from Windows 10.

You need to try two different ways to flash files and restore your device.
First method: fastboot mode
You need to get device enter to fastboot in order to flash some files like system, boot and userdata, then there are two main methods to do it:
- Pressing pwr + vol down
- And I mentioned that sometimes work pressing both volume button + pwr and a menu have to appear to can select an option to enter to (fastboot mode), in some devices this method is not working but you have to try several times attempting to.
Second method: SPFlashTool
You have to ever press first of all Download box and connect terminal cable to pc and the buttons thhat you need to press at time to connec cable usb to your device may vary, sometimes vol down, sometimes both vol but never pwr button; if pc recognice then you have to release all buttone an let it pc continue the flash process.
If SPFlashTool recognice device first flash only preloader file and select now lk.bin too. Flash only these two files and after do again a new flash with the rest of the files, Why you need to do this? your partitions are corrupted and you need to restore them with these files in order to can flash all another files.
Before all of this charge your battery, if you have a cover removable then extract it some minutes and put it again.
Also I read that for this model it´s used this tool instead of SPFlash Tool https://androidmtk.com/download-sugar-mtk-sp-flash-tool (inside the zip you will find a password to start the tool) but I´m not sure what kind of rom it needs, you have to connect your device to begin the process, you will find in product models section in the tool this variant for your device "FL02"
Try first the other tool and then this and let me know how you go, mtk devices are almost unbrickeable so it´s just to find the appropriate way to return it to the life.
Hi again!
It was along time,I know . But I tried to know why I can’t return my phone back to life.
I have searched all possible websites for rom of this model and I have formatted my pc and installed win7 with all necessary drivers.
I can’t found any rom for it but now I can flash all the necessary files for boot they flashing and running smoothly but the mobile can’t boot up.
I try to use that app in your replay. It recognizes the device but stuck after that and keep looking for rom without any chance to download it.
I think I have a wrong rom files. I can’t find any other reason but this.
I will write again all information about my phone:
It is called Alcatel Flash Plus 2
I bought it from AliExpress and it came from Indonesia as I remember (not sure)

Yes, so many time
When device is booting, it stays in bootlogo or goes atleast to bootanimation?
I understand that you tried with Sugar tool with no lucky.
Did you try again through SP Flash tool? trying to flash in a first attempt only preloader file and in a second attempt the other files? (try with 2 or 3 versions and see the differences).
Is there some custom development, recovery, roms for your device?
I think that now you are flashing correct rom through fastboot but like you did before bad/wrong flashings your bootloader is refusing to boot to system. Flash through fastboot all the partitions that you can follow the syntax for every one of them by i.e. typing fastboot flash cache cache.img and so on one by one (some of them are unflashable through this method)

I began lose hope that the mobile could work again. I live in Sweden and no technicians kan help me to fix this issue. I should do it by myself.
If you kan help me to do that step by step. Please write to me what I have to do from the beginning step by step until I reach the end. To be sure I'm doing it by the right way.

I´ll tell you some ideas with no any specific order that you can try or see if works.
Really very strange that display stays in black, you told me that flashing files through fastboot is working but doesn´t appear not even bootlogo, connect to pc as it is and see how pc recognices in devices manager and my pc if appears like a determined drive d/e/f so it looks that some bad flashing burn your kernel and this case is similar to when a Samsung device need to use jtag method to revive, if in your country no-one knows about Alcatel devices this could be a similar case to what I´m saying then it could be a clue for a technician. I tell you this cause many time ago when I flashed by error a Samsung s4 and only this method revived my device.
Try this, flash your stock recovery only through SPFlash tool and flash after through Alcatel Download tool your stock rom cause some firmwares need to detect stock recovery first to can flash other partitions.
At this stage don´t you have stock recovery, no? so you can try to format data cause sometimes when bootloader is altered then avoid to boot and formatting data can solve this.
If this recovery twrp is for your device you can try flashing through SPFlash tool, you have to put recovery.img and scatter-txt in a same folder. then if succesfull format data, system, wipe cache and dalvik and maybe later try to port some custom rom would be a way to solve this.
To flash any partition through fastboot this is the syntax, just follow one by one any of the files that are in your rom folder so just follow these, if some of then can´t be flashed don´t worry then it´s not flashable:
fastboot flash boot bot.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash lk lk.bin
and so on till the end
...But after try this if you didn´t get boot to recovery and obviously you can´t delete data nor system then delete first the next partitions trough fastboot typing:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
Try all this and let us see how it goes
I have flashed TWRP Rom but it is same , no luck.
On sugar tool I got this message after success flashing via SPFLASH tool.
I tried all possible buttons to connect device to PC on Fastboot mode but the PC cannot send data to my device.
To be in Fastboot mode , the device has to boot while pressing on (PWR & VOL+) but my device can’t boot.

I see that Sugar tool detects your device like rooted and refuses to flash anything, compare imei number which is in the box, I hope that it couldn´t be changed.
Don´t tell me simply no luck, what it says in SPFlash tool when you tried to flash TWRP and I guess that you put scatter-txt and twrp renamed recovery.img simply in the same folder. Just to be clear, to can flash with this tool your device it has to be off not needed fastboot for this. (provide some screenie)
Other combination of keys to enter to fastboot to flash some partitions when something is missing is, try these three ways:
- Pressing only vol down and at same time connecting to charger (connect first one terminal of cable to your device and then to the charger)
- Pressing the three buttons till a menu appears (you must to release inmediately all)
- Pressing vol up + pwr till a menu appears (you must to release pwr button inmediately) then choose fastboot
In the post 4 I provided a link from Google Drive, in this zip there are 8 items;
- From the item 2 use this version of SP Flash tool, put the four files in a folder and flash them
- In the item 3 you will find some scripts for fastboot, maybe they´re working better and also you have here a subfolder with twrp image.
- And if you get sucessfully install twrp in the item 7 there is a backup with some files to restore from this recovery.
Try one by one and update the info, I hope that your motherboard is not damaged.
A2017X DFU MultiDL Tool…The Ultimate DFU to EDL Mode Unbrick Tool
DFU bricked ??....It seems opening the phone is history....
DFU bricked ??....Throw away that EDL Cable....
My friend @Aviver saw this post on myzte.cn : http://www.myzte.cn/thread-356482-1-1.html
@Teet1 linked us the download and @Aviver could test it on his bricked DFU phone and guess...IT WORKED !!!
A) How To : Follow the setup here and read a more in depth review of @AnonVendetta HERE
B) Tool : New ZTE DFU_MultiDL_A2017X_Tool.exe ( english setup )
Free translation :
[B][A2017 save brick] official tools to save brick to the DFU mode free disassemble into the 9008[/B]
today to help the Friends group @ Chi Feng Lan Moon Shadow shoes cracked a flash tool.
After selecting the port with software, DFU can actually enter 9008, preventing brick.
After entering 9008, you can switch to miflash or Qualcomm qpst.
Of course, this software can also be used directly for flashing.
1. Connect the mobile phone to the computer, recommend the system Windows 7, install ZTE's own driver package, 9008 driver package (miflash comes with), miflash brush tool (alternate) . Install the provided SalesMultiDL_A2017 tool (this is the official after-sales tool, provided by the netizen, invade and delete), and find the installation directory, the patch file is overwritten by the main program, and the crack is completed.
2. Press and hold the power button to decrease the volume to enter the factory mode. If you can't boot directly, skip this step in dfu mode.
3. According to the help file of the software, view and select the port. Displaying “Connected” means that the machine is recognized. Click the green play button to start, observe the restart of the mobile phone, and disconnect the data cable to enter the port 9008. This step may be different, there are also cases where you select the port directly into the 9008. You must observe the port of the computer device manager in the form of dfu or edl 9008, 4. After entering 9008, theoretically select the installation package from below and click on the green player. The button can start to brush, here ZTE official line brush package is not available. So this step turns off the software and changes to the miflash brush package to try to brush. -------------------------------------------------- ----- Other ways to enter the 9008 port: 1. In the early version, press and hold the power button and the volume up and down buttons simultaneously. 2, you can enter the system or twrp, computer command line mode, adb shell reboot edl. 3, can not boot, search for millet engineering line production method to make millet engineering line to enter. 4. Disassemble the test point to enter 9008. This method can be replaced by the tool provided in this post.
Progress?
Working on it. I managed to get an account made for the site! :victory: Only to find out you also have to be in a certain user group to be able to download. The site uses a point system to determine what user group you have access to. To get point you basically have to spend time on, and do things in the site. So that's where I'm at.

You could also download it via the Baidu link. Someone just posted it but you have to register for Baidu. I have a registered account there (had to jump through some hoops) but I've managed to download it for you so no one else has to do the same. The download was also painfully slow. Here you go:

Create a new thread on it if you like for a guide! This will be extremely useful for permanent bricks. Nice find :good:

You can replace the Chinese language files in the tool installation directory with the English files in the same directory.
Replace "\Resource\Locales\ZH_CN\DL_WCDMA.lang" with "\Resource\Locales\US_EN\DL_WCDMA.lang".You'll get a full version of English.

This is a god send! Saved me from a DFU brick! Thanks to all involved!
English version update
Replace the lan_CHN.ini in your program folder under bin/languages
(or just change the name 'lan_ENG' into 'lan_CHN' and remove the original lan_CHN.ini)
or use ZTE DFU_MultiDL_A2017 Tool (English Version) - extract and replace all the files to your existing program folder thnx @millerz for his work :good:
(or extract it to your desktop and double tap the ZTE_Sales_Update_Framework.exe - that should work too)
If anyone has the time to change the whole setup.exe file to begin the install-setup in english and change the tool UI in english, feel free to upload it here
This is a great thing to have now that the Axon 7 is probably on its last leg of support.
This is absolutely incredible. I've had a DFU'd A2017G before from trying to install LOS 15.1 by following the guide on their OP. Thank you!
Not working for me, unfortunately. My A2017U is DFU. When I run this program, everything looks like it's working. It finds the phone, and then the PC will recognize it as 9008. MiFlash will even flash an EDL package, and say it's a success. But when I reboot the phone, it's still not working. I can still only boot into DFU.
I've tried multiple USB ports, installed the program a couple different ways, and tried 3 or 4 different EDL packages. Any ideas?
EDIT: Mine always says "connect state - disconnected," but it seems to force Windows to recognize the phone as 9008. Coul this be part of the issue?
This saved my ass. Used the English version with ease. Cannot thank everyone involved with this enough.

As of what I read the main part is working, that is reconnecting 9008 able to flash an EDL. That's the main goal.
The edl flash seems to be successful as I understand so that's strange... Anyway, did you try the @djkuz edl tool and flash an edl out of his range of U-roms?

I had been using MiFlash, but I switched over and tried the @djkuz tool. Failed again. The log says it "failed to open com port." Is this a driver issue, or something else? I've reinstalled the qualcomm drivers, but maybe I'm missing some other piece?
