try version 3 first the universal one. then you can play with the others by updating through stock recovery. i bet you have a dual core one. press vol down , ok and power button at the same time on boot and go to version. if it says MAUI on the list then we have the same clone

Try to read the chinacarts website because you download the one for quadcore micro_sim_s3_quadcore_dualcore_firmware_20130107 the link i provided you is the the one that worked for me.
Version 3:
For micro sim version
(When you make upgrade the phone success,the boot screen will start on"welcome"logo,dial"*#2013#"or"*#0825#" then press"OK" reboot the phone,the boot logo will changed to Samsung Logo)
Firmware( Released on 07,Jan,2013) this firmware universal for MT6575,MT6577,MT6589 CPU:https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4AdByfaH4T0TjVjc2w0OXVqQUE
Now mind your manners and be thankful and READ! we are not obliged to help out. Did you tried out this UNIVERSAL FIRMWARE! if you do then it never worked then there is nothing we can do to your expensive paperweight.

i also have issue with my s3 clone mtk6577... its no longer turning on after trying to odex it.. tried to flash the firmware and thats when the phone no longer turning on.. please help me.. im trying to flash it again using the flash tool but stuck in 0% what do i need to do?

I have the same problem. S3 micro sim clone MTK6589, new firmware tried (chinaecarts.com/s3firmware20130320.rar ), then the phone not booting.
I just contacted with Chinaecarts.com, they tried to solve the problem but not working.
Also tried with the universal firmware, but it sad I've MTK6577 phone, not MTK6575.
If I will have fresh news, will post it.
(seller said, I should send the phone back, and they will fix it.)

I tried with this:
H.tps://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4AdByfaH4T0TjVjc2w0OXVqQUE
It is theoretically for the MTK6577 and MTK6589 as well. Got the previous result: "Platform error. The target platform is MT6577_S00."
I think there is a solution for the blank screen problem:
- need a Flash Tool. (on the link above you can find it, or on the link in my previous post)
- need a firmware for MTK6577 micro sim card.
I tried with many sdcard firmware versions, but no effective result.

Hi,
1, You need to know what is exact model of your s3 mtk6577. There are many s3 mtk6577 models in the market. Different s3 mtk6577 is made by different manufacturer, so the ROM is definitely different.
2. After you get the right ROM, then flash your phone by using flash tool SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject

Bricked MTK6577
The image of the S3-micro-sim-version-20121210 this with corronpidos files, and the method that you should have done to retrieve your appliance was using the recover instead of SP tools because the files are not in rar. SP standard my phone so can enter META mode and nothing more.

It looks I have the exact model of yours. I am trying to update the firmware by entering the recovery (I suppose it is {vol up + power}). But my external sdcard is not mounted to pick the rom from.

I hope this may help you? I had the same problems as you with the same phone after rooting it I deleted the original rom as it went into a loop and would not start so I started installing every firmware I can find and install, I got one which works BUT! no English , it boots English then goes into several languages but not English it is HDCI9300 rom. I googled it as no one seems able or do not want to help although I have asked several times in many different ways. I hope this will get your phone at least to boot up, I used sp flash as this rom will not let you do anything with the sd card (if it does you need to translate one of the languages)? I hope this helps, if not you have lost nothing:fingers-crossed:

Hello. I have a similar problem with yours. A friend of mine has a 100% visual clone (MTK6577) with the same sticker under the battery like in the first post, he tried to flash it, but he messed up something, and then he brought it to me completely DEAD . No charging, no PC connection - nothing... I tried many button combos, and accidentally i found out that if i connect the phone without battery, press and hold VOL+, VOL- & POWER for a few seconds, the PC detected the mediatek com port , installed the drivers without problem, and now the real problems begins - the ROM. I tried all of the roms from chinaecarts but without success, first i couldn't flash the thing, and after downloading several roms from chinaecarts, and finally flashed it and guess what - no LCD :silly: . So i tried combining different files from different roms, and now i'm at a point where i can turn on the phone, screen goes white, but the phone boots, it makes the vibration after the boot process completes, and after that the phone is responding to touches (it vibrates), lock/unlock works, PC detects USB Mass Storage Device, USB Composite Device and MTK65xx Android Phone. I also noticed that in the FW packages i downloaded there are some files that aren't flashed (i think) like for example the kernel.img so i was wondering if i can flash it manually? Please someone help, share some FW links, i can't find anymore...

can anyone help with this?? or even identify which s3 clone the phone is from the first post... i have tried many "solutions" for clone 6577 and NONE works.. I have scoured the internet for possible solutions and nothing..

help please!

[Q] Haipai i9389 (MTK6589) Recovery?

Hi guys, I bought the above phone off Amazon. I found out this very strange device also had a root-enabled kernel out of the box, but my question is about recovery. I want to install CWM as a first choice, if not that, TWRP, but a Google search only tuns up loose references to MTK6589 which is presumably the SoC, but nothing for my specific model. Currently when I reboot to recovery with any root app it shows 'no command' (maybe there is no recovery installed to the recovery partition?) and when entering bootloader mode the device displays what is seen in the attached photo.
I would appreciate any help on getting a working recovery set up on this device.
Thanks!

Hi, I also have one of these phones and have been looking at recovery options with little success.
However I have found a set of instructions in the XDA University about porting CWM. (unfortunalty I can't post a link due to being a Noob, but if you Google 'porting cwm' it should be the top result).
I am going to be attempting to do this once I have got my PC set up dual boot for Linux.
Will post back with news on how it's going. Would appreciate any progress you have made about a recovery option.
Regards
Mad.
first, make a backup of your device using mtk droid tools.
if phone isn`t rooted yet, use this tutorial:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2332783
for the recovery, you need to unpack your recovery.img, take the kernel zImage and put it in the cwm-recovery. for mt6589 phones, this one should work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357875
you can unpack/repack your boot.img with this tools:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1587411
after obtaining new recovery.img, flash it through SP flash tool or mobileuncle tools.
Recovery Quirk
Chrizzly, thanks for the pointers, will be checking out the tools tonight.
Found a quirk though, may just be my phone.
I booted into recovery last night and as expected the "no commands" came up, but then I took the back off the phone and a recovery menu appeared. Had options in there like reboot, delete cache, delete delvik cache....
I'm assuming this is the stock recovery.
I tested it again this morning and booting into recovery and then taking the back off the phone made the menu appear!!
Any one else care to test and see if it's a stock thing or just a quirk of my phone.
replied before, my post disappeared.. this isn`t related to your device , this is recovery-typical. it is showing the android first, without a menu. you need to press hardware buttons, to get into the menu( this is device-specific, you need to try that, also buttons on the touch screen, if there are some) this will usually bring you in recovery MENU. think you accidently pressed one of these buttons while opening the device.

Re: Stock recovery. Thought it was a button press that got me in first time but I tried it several times and no button worked just pulling the back off. Little puzzled about that but it's something I can live with!!
lovelord:
Re: Files. Thanks for the files, going to try them out as soon as I can!!
Done
I have got CWM working on my i9389 now, there was a few quirks in getting it going.
The method I used was as posted in the MTK Droid Root & Tools thread by rua1.
TIPS
Leave the battery out when doing read back or flash in Flash Tools.
Not mentioned in the instruction is the MTK vcom drivers which you will need and can be found in the Root tutorial posted by Chrizzly a bit further up.
Make sure you read the instructions by rua1 closely and use the images posted as it's not always straight forward.
Last tip pay attention to where MTK tools puts the files it creates, had me stumped for a bit!! I've never been very good at following instructions!!

I managed to boot loop mine while messing with a ROM I made (it's not finished yet) but managed to recover by re-flashing using the Flash Tools a back up I had taken just after installing CWM.
Do you have a back up you can flash?
I have just checked mine and even zipped it's still 800MB so I can't email it to you...
...sure if I looked about I could find somewhere to upload it to for you. PM me if you need this!!
The sd holder broke off, can i buy this http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...w?ie=UTF8&condition=new&qid=1379198350&sr=8-1 the galaxy s3 i9300 sd card slot holder and put it on my haipai i9389? or do i need specific haipai i9389 sd card slot holder.

[Resolved] [Q] [HELP] Is my MTK6589 phone hard bricked ?

EDIT : SOLVED :
Many thanks to slot78
Hello all.
I got my hands on a Inew I2000 phone (Mediatek 6589 cpu). I tried to flash it with the latest rom, and might have hard bricked it. Can you help me say if it is indedd hard-bricked, and if not how to revive it ?
What I did :
I used Flash Tool 3.1312
Got the rom from this page : http://www.needrom.com/mobile/inew-i2000/
After fighting with the drivers for a while, it seems my phone is ready to flash.
I selected the scatter-loader, cliced "firmware upgrade"
Pluged the phone.
The upgrade seemed to work fine. I got to the green circle. I unpluged phone. But hte phone didn't boot.
After that, nothing.
The phone doesn't seem to reac to anything. The screen stays black.
When I plug it, the list in device manager moves a bit ( showing that it still react to pluged USB) But I can't find the device anywhere on the list.
When I try to flash anything with flash tool, I clic load. Then, when I plug the phone, the loading start. But when the red bar reach 100%, nothing more happens.
From what I've found with google so far, it looks like I somehow had the wrong pre-loader in my ROM.
Now, I'm opened to suggestions.
Any way I can be sure wrther my phone is bricked or not ?
If not, what is the next step to revive it ?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I answer here,ok? Important info...
As you say in pm, yes the sollution the "test-spot"!
You have the truth!
http://www.4shared.com/download/5Y4TKOCfba/service_spot__1_.jpg?lgfp=3000
There is the spot!
You need to remove the back cover and you need 3 item: a piece of wire, a screwdriver (fot the back cover) and a rubber-ring.
First remove almost all the screw, except next to sd card slot (bottom left corner of the sd card slot)...This screw fix the main board and you can remove the back cover without remove this screw.
Put the battery to right position and fix it with rubber ring to the phone.
Prepare with the flash tools and rom, for flashing...(usb cable conect to the pc, scatter file etc...)
Start the flashing with the downlad button and inmediatly sort the spot with the motherboard screw (what you didn't remove) with the wire.
Waiting for the green circle! And Enjoy!
Pls let me know if you successful!
The problem was i think...There is two different mainboard in Inew i2000 the v1.1 and the v2.1...The newer stock roms belongs to second.
Here is a KitKat THEMED (it's just 4.2.1) rom: http://www.4shared.com/zip/WHdOpLytba/07_resurrection_feelKat.html
(little bit lightweighted and optimized) It's for PCB v1.1
First time do not going to panic...First time boot will be slow...and after that the system need 15 min for find myself...Wait for it!
Here is the lastest CWM based touch recovery

Best Regards
I haven't succeded (yet) but thanks a lot for the info.
I think I got the right point on the motherboard. When I connect it, I can see a white led lightning up near the ubs port on the phone. So, I guess connecting the point makes my phone react.
But I think I might have a driver problem now.
Here is what happened.
Launch Flashtool as admin.
Load a scatterfile (any file, at this point I just want to be able to flash anything.)
Battery in, usb cable connected
press load.
the red progress bar imediately reach 100%
I try to connect he testpoints.
nothing more happens. Sometime I see various errors, not always the same.
Before finding the test point method, I tried all kind of drivers. Now I'm not sure which one is left on the system or wich is the correct one.
Anyway thanks for pointing the test points to me !
Also, thanks for the recovery and the ROM.
But none of them contains a preloader / scatter file. So, at this point, even if I get the right drivers I can't load them. I'll try them later if I manage to revive the phone, but right now my aim is ...
1 / Cleanup the drivers, and reinstall the right one
2 / Get flash tool to load anything on the phone via test point
3 / Find the right preloader and load it via test point
If I manage to do that, then I should be able to put back the back cover, and load the recovery "normally".
In the meantime, any advice is highly welcome.
Like :
- Any tips for cleaning up / installing drivers ?
- Any idea what the right preloader is ?
- Precise order on what to plug when flashig ( Battery / plusg USB / Load in flashtool / Connect points ? )
But more than eveything, thank you ! I might not have succeded yet, but at least I am not stuck anymore. Before your post I didn't know what to do. At least, now I have the test point and I can try something.
Also, sorry for the late answer. I had a lot on my plate, and didn't realise you had answered.
I suscribe to be sure not to miss any more answer.

Hello Again!
For the recovery you do not need new scatter file, use the original.
You can install the new rom from CWM recovery.
So let's see the problem.
First i need that error messages, it's important!
Try to use different usb cable/usb port/computer (operation system).
And different version of Flashtools.
I use this:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/CBA1yGcq/SP_Flash_Tool_v313040119.html
And this drivers:

Hello Again!
For the recovery you do not need new scatter file, use the original.
You can install the new rom from CWM recovery.
So let's see the problem.
First i need that error messages, it's important!
Try to use different usb cable/usb port/computer (operation system).
And different version of Flashtools.
I use this:

And this drivers:

Quick update.
On device manager, the phone appear under "Ports com and LTP" as "MTK USB Port (com12)" Or other port number if I use other USB ports.
The error message I sometime get is BROM ERROR : S_PORT_COM_OPEN_FAIL (1013)
[COM] Failed to open port COM12
Wether I get the message or not depends on the order I do thing. ( Plus phone first, load after, or load and plug after ...)
So far, same reaction as always. The red progress bar goes to 100% very quicky, then nothing more happens.
EDIT ;
YES ! Phone résurected !
What I did :
phone not pluged, test points already connected
Windows -> write memory.
Go to tab Write memory
Open raw data -> select preloader.bin
select EMMC
Adress 0x0000000000
length 0x00600000
Write
Plug phone (with test point already connected)
The prelaoder gets written -> green circle.
unplug phone
After that back to main tab
select scater file from the same image, clic firmware upgrade
connect phone
Loading goes through ...
Green circle,
Phone switch on -> Success !
Thanks a lot, I will now try to flash the CWM recovery and the rom you recommended ... but later.
Right now my phone can boot again, and that's awesome !

Yikes!
Looks like, there is only usb driver related or op system related problem. (for this moment)
I looking for different driver and give it a try.
tonight...
Lol, you must have answered while I was editing my post.
As I said, Phone resurected ! Success !
It is now booting normally, with a stock rom.
Next steps are
1 / CWM + the rom you suggested.
2 / Fix memory to use the whole memory on one system partition. (It seems the i2000 for some reason does not use all the available memory.)
But all that is not problematic anymore. I just need the time to get to it
Many thanks for your precious help, I wouldn't have been able to do it without you.

It's an apk for repartitioning your memory! Use only maximum 1,5 GB system memory options!
After that you must reflash the rom of course and your internal sd will cleared too!
But not the cwm recovery!
I'm happy now!
Get the 2.7 GB of memory on one partition ... OK
Get more available memory ... nope. Not sure it is actually possible on my version.
CWM ... OK
insall the kitkat themed rom you gave ... I don't know.

How long exactly ? Because I think the 4 color moving logo has been displayed for 15 minutes now.I know first boot can be long ... but at what point do I decide the phone is not just slow booting but actually stuck ?
Edit : Well, I'll stop at 30min I think.
But even if this one doesn't work for me, I would be interrested to know where you found custom roms for inew I2000 phone. I haven't been able to find a single one with google.

Well, depends on what you call hardbrick and soft brick.
I bricked it using only software. So, it's soft.
But I had to open it and attach a wire to the motherboard to unbrick it ... so kinda hard to.

Eh it's will be difficult, you know i customized that rom... Because i did not found too. It was not a really rom develpoment just kind a "patchwork"...
The problem is, you have (i think) v2.1 board in your Inew I2000...In Hungary...one company sold v1.1 verzion...it called "Myaudio 508"...
For the v2.1 i have only stock rom...
But i did only few imporvements....Working GPS (with hw modding too) not blurry cam (hw too) different launcher, customized bootanim, different (and less) system ringtones and notifications. Some build.prop tweaking...etc...etc...
I try to make 4.2.2, because i have a working version, but still have two bugs, but that harder bugs and my phone sadly dead.

My motherboard have a contact issue and i cant find replacement anywhere...I asked chinese factories...i asked russian fans...nothing
I'm a sad panda now...And looking for new phone...There are few new very intresting phones!
But if you want ask anything...just do it! if i can, i will help..
Is it possible from battery date 2013.02.25 and green sticker below battery with 2013 05 checked to tell which exactly preloader I need for this bricked phone (quad core)? I tried various sp flash tools versions and various roms dated 2013 03 16, 2013 05 10, 2013 07 06, tried to download only preloader or full rom with variuos errors, usually 4001 and 4032, now only shortening the point method left, but how do I know which exactly preloader I neeed?

You shold check the motherboard version number...Already i know two versions of this phone...The v1.1 and the v2.1...
For the flashtools the firmware names contain "_21" or "_v21"...In previous posts i linked a v21 rom. If you need the older one...i don't have v1.1 rom for flashtools now (because my phone is dead) but you can use the "spot method" and cmw rom + zip firmware form.

[Q] Chinese Mobile

HI
I just purchased a Chines mobile name HONMI. They said it is 4x2 core but it is dual come. Mostly applications were in Chines I tried to delete some Chinese files but after deleting the Mobile is not coming back. It stuck after booting and not coming as menu, showing only black screen. I have tried to flash ROM by SP Flash Tool. One time it did it and after it is not doing. Also not recongnising the USB.
I appreciate any help to resolve the problem.
Best Regards.

You can fix your phone by flashing a correct ROM. Chinese phones can't get bricked. If you flash wrong preloader, you won't be able to boot it, but just get a correct preloader and flash it by pressing and holding VOL+ button before you connect the phone. It will start working again. Check for original ROM at www.NeedRom.com
Also using MTK Droid Tools will tell you real chipset. It can't trick you by telling you it's a quad-core if it's dual-core.
You can also blame the seller and ask for money back.

[Q] MTK preloader port is gone!!! Replaced by MTK USB Port.?

Hello there!
So here goes my problem: The thing I was trying to do> Flashing a random rom in my MTK6582 device. Why random? Because I was unable to find my official ROM on internet. I thought if I flash any random ROM having MTK6582 device, It would work, which resulted in my current despo situation. No boot, No Logo, Nothing. The thing that triggered this was none other than "FORMAT" button from SP FLash Tool. Yup. Beforehand, I could at least enter in Bootloop and Recovery Mode. So is there anything which could be done except changing motherboard or force booting with JIG. As I said, it still shows "MTK USB Port" when I connect my phone w/o battery, however, Preloader is no longer appears. One more thing, it's not disappearing after 2 seconds as it did with preloader. Please, save my bud!!!
Device Name: Qmobile Linq X70, MTK6582, ARMv7 Quad Core 1.3GHz, KitKat 4.4.2

Actually, your shouldn't have done it, since as far as I have searched, I didn't find any Flashable stock ROM for your phone.
Flashing some other device's ROM will never work, since the mount points will be completely different even if you flash ROM of same chipset.
The only solution for this is waiting for someone to post flashable stock ROM for your phone, or finding someone who has the same phone and asking them to dump the ROM completely and give it to you, or the best way: Go to Service Center
Try flashing any flashable custom/stock rom if available for your device, and if not then u can use it as paperweight. And service center might not able to help as ur preloader is corrupted.

Yes, you can.
This will help: http://www.theandroidhow.com/2014/05/how-to-backup-rom-dump-mtk-android.html
It's quite difficult for a beginner.
Going to Service Center is the best way as I said.
Don't brick your uncle's phone too trying to save yours.
The choice is yours now

[Completed] Doogee X5 Pro Bricked

Ok, i have a doogee x5 pro phone and i tried to root it by flashing twrp recovery using sp flash tools. While flashing i got the error "PMT Changed for the rom it must be download". So i did a small research on internet and i found out that i needed to format everything except bootloader. This succeded. So after that i tried to install the firmware with this succeding to. Unfortunately the time i tried to turn phone on it was dead. SP Flash Tools wont detect it anymore. Please help me cause the phone is not mine and its brand new! I can rate my self as moderate android user. :crying:
i think i have a bigger problem... I downloaded a stock rom for doogee max pro(cause i just realised it wasnt just pro it was max pro) and it didnt seem to be recognised again. Any help would be appreciated. I constantly keep trying to raise it from the deads. Thanks!

On mtk devices a preloader is independently installed, it should be almost impossible to destroy, I owned a x5 pro and had best success to flash it with sp flash by taking out the battery, press flash button and plug it in...
The second huge issue I see is when you used the specific flash tool format option you very, very likely killed the nvram partition which contained the imei, so you'll have to fix this too by generating a new one and using mtk engineer mode which is well described and to find on Google..
But let's go step by step. Check without battery, or if it's a non replaceable you'll need find the reset button..
i have tried before without battery and i tried just now but nothing. Its very weird it was detected before and now no in same and another machine. I am pretty confused and stressed. Hope i didnt do any physical damage.. :crying:. THANKS!
starting to get pretty stressed omg! and is there a difference between MT6737M and MT6737?
i came to the point im starting to lose my mind... tried everything i could, i have 5 days left to repair this phone and i dont wanna pay 85 euros for this. SP Flash Tools wont detect the phone. Tried almost 5 different scatter files,2 different PCs and different mtk drivers. Im losing my mind already
UPDATE: I almost fixed it! I had flashed wrong preloader so phone wasn't recognized by SP Flash Tool. I fixed preloaded with a little trick from here: link. After that i flashed stock rom downloaded from doogee.cc but phone will not boot resulting in a total black screen. When i hot Power + Vol Up it takes me to another screen:
Select Boot Mode:
Recovery
Bootloader
Normal
Doesn't matter which boot mode i choose i just get a total black screen which means i get nothing. Idk what is happening! Any further help would be appreciated! I constantly try to bring it back working with little success and small improvements.
Last UPDATE: FIXED my phone had no juice left inside so couldnt complete boot proccess. Now its all good running Btw someone must pin this META trick link i send on my previous post cause im sure more people out there have preloader issues!!! Thank you everyone!!
