- If the flash is successful then green circles display on SP Flash Tool

This is not a question but instructions on how to flash this very rare phone (I could not find anything about this anywhere)
basically the company who makes it actually provides all the files but they are not easy to find
if you know what to do.. the ftp is located here
ftp://ftp.vonino.org/public/Firmware/
if you don't, continue on..
1. download the USB drivers and install them (sounds easier than it actually is)
here are some instructions from the company but they are in romanian
ftp://ftp.vonino.org/public/Firmwar...MTK/Vonino procedura actualizare software.pdf
but I can break it down for you (if you are on windows 10 x64 like): (info from here with some changes)
1.1 disable Windows 10 - 64 bit driver signature enforcement
- Click on Start then on Settings
- Click on Update & security then in the left pane click on Recovery
- Under Advanced startup click on Restart now button (you might wanna write the next parts on paper)
- Click on Troubleshoot then on Advanced options
- Click on Startup Settings then on Restart button
- The computer will restart with the Startup Settings screen
- To disable the driver signature enforcement until next restart press on number key 7 or F7 on your keyboard.
- wait for windows to start ..
1.2 install MTK VCOM USB Drivers
(I actually did this two times and will explain the two methods)
- download drivers from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087012126 and extract to a folder (1)
- download drivers from here http://ftp.vonino.org/public/Firmware/01_GENERAL_DRIVERS_FOR_MTK/ (Driver_Auto_Installer_v1.1228.00.rar) and extract to a folder (2)
ALTERNATIVELY to this next section you can just right click the inf file and click install.
- go to device manager (in w10 u can right click the start button and select it from the list)
- here select your computer THEN go to Action -> add legacy hardware
- On the Welcome to the Add hardware Wizard window click on Next button
- Select Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced) and then click on Next button
- Click on Show All Devices then on Next button
- In the Add Hardware window click on Have Disk… button
- In the Install From Disk windows click on Browse… button
- In the next window – Locate file – browse for the folder (1) that you have extracted on the desktop at the beginning
- Select the version of the driver according to your Windows 10 version – for 64 its "Windows 10 x64 MTK USB Drivers" (for 32 its Windows 10 x86 MTK USB Drivers)
- Click the OK button to load the driver
- From the list of drivers select MTK USB Port and click on Next button
- If a red warning window will open, click on Install this driver software anyway
- Now remove the device that was installed but leave the drivers in the operating system. (To do that in the Device Manager window expand Ports (COM & LPT) section, Right-click and click Uninstall on the MTK USB Port, making sure in the Confirm Device Uninstall window, that the box Delete the driver software for this device is empty)
- do this again for the other driver
- just this time browse for this folder Driver_Auto_Installer\SmartPhoneDriver\x64\Infs\ (or x86...)
- and select this file: usbvcom.inf
- then pick the first item.. DA USB VCOM Port
2. Download SP-Flash-Tool from ftp://ftp.vonino.org/public/Firmware/02_GENERAL_FLASH_KIT/SP-Flash-Tool-v5.1532.00.rar or http://tehnotone.com/download-sp-flash-tool-v3-v5-latest-versions/ and extract it
3. Download the latest stock ROM here
http://ftp.vonino.org/public/Firmware/Vonino_Smartphones/Jax_X/
- extract the contents of the zip file to a folder !
4. Flash the phone (https://androidmtk.com/flash-stock-rom-using-smart-phone-flash-tool)
so in order to do the actual flash
- turn off the phone and remove the battery (dont attach any cables to it yet)
- open flash_tool.exe
- select Firmware upgrade from the dropdown
- browse for the Download Agent and select the MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin in the SP-Flash-Tool folder.
- click on the Scatter-loading button and browse for the MT6580_Android_scatter.txt file located in the rom folder you extracted.
- click on the Download button
- connect the phone to the computer using the USB cable (with or without battery but it should be turned off)
- press the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time (I think this is optional, just wait and see if the download starts if not press the buttons)
- leave it to upload the new firmware, once its done a green button will appear
- close the flash tool and disconnect the cable
- start the phone and wait (for me it took about 7 minutes) but this will only happen the first time
hope this helps
ps: related to how I got into this predicament, if you gonna root your phone using Kingroot (it will work) DONT use SuperSuMe to try to remove Kingroot but keep root just coz the adds in the lock screen annoy you, it will boot loop your phone..
ps2: I hope Kingroot and all the other chineseroot ***** go bankrupt .. trying to brick my phone ..
Thank you so much. It wasnt easy but it worked perfect. Thank you for very detailed instructions it helped a lot. God bless you!
Can this phone support Android 7? I saw on the chinese shops that android 7 is rolling out on some MTK devices with 1GB of RAM?
Since i am afraid, that my Guide will dissapear in the other Thread,
i post this guide in a new Thread !
I have just uploaded a collection of, how i have named it, - s60 essentials - there are ALL files included to flash stock, update to .033, flash twrp recovery and root.
(this is for Win7 x86, you have to check if it works for other versions yourself, sy..)
Here is my collection
HOW TO.... Stock, Update, custom recovery and root your s60 !!!!
Disclaimer: if you brick your phone, it's your fault, i have tested this way of rooting my s60 now for a several times and it works 100%
SO READ TWICE, CHECK TWICE, BEFORE YOU CLICK ONCE !!!!! i will not take any responsibility !!!
Thanks to everybody who contributed here in this thread (Cesarq, OpenMinded, Tuschi, BetonJohn, etc.......) the software in the link
is the collected data, freely available in the net and linked in the original Thread several times, i have only bundled one package and wrote
this, hopefully usefull guide.
in principle do as follows: (I will only explain once how to sideload or load via recovery, afterwards i will only state what kind and what file)
Prerequists
- install USB drivers (for recovery and adb)
- install "minimal ADB and fastboot"
- copy the two updates (update032 & update033) into the folder, where you have installed "minimal ADB and fastboot" (makes live easier later)
- install QPST (the version of QPST is the one from Androidmtk and should be virusfree
(The version of QFIL in my collection is the one without reboot, so you have to reset/reboot your phone manually (resetbutton below hatchdoor on your phone) whenever
stated in this guide.
- format micro SD card in fat32 ! and copy SuperSU.zip onto it.
- connect a WORKING USB cable to your phone (Not to your PC atm !!!)
getting twrp (for saving your old firmware only)
- power off phone.
- start minimal adb on your PC
- start QFIL (part of QPST) on your PC
- press VOL+ & VOL- simultanousely and connect phone with PC (it will vibrate once, top right LED starts blinking red, screen stays black) - DOWNLOAD MODE -
(just in case: to leave Download mode, press and hold power button for apprx. 15 seconds)
- as soon as you connect your phone to the PC, QFIL should show the Phone/port in the topline allready, if not, either try to manually select the port, or you probably still have
a problem with the USB drivers !
- tick in QFIL Flat Build (top left)
- QFIL - select Programmer, "browse" to the saved location of "update-twrp-recovery-nobootpatch" and select the "prog_emmc.blablabla...mbn" file and doubleclick
- QFIL - "load XML" ,select rawprogramm, doubleclick, select patch0, doubleclick
- QFIL - click on "download"
- if everything was OK up till now, it should start download - BE PATIENT- and read the status window on QFIL, when it shows "finish download"....
- disconnect phone from PC
- press and hold simultanousely POWER and VOL+ and use a small tool to push the reset button on the phone under the hatch, while still pressing Power and Vol+ !
- the phone should now be in twrp recovery. If so, do a full backup now to your (allready inserted and fat32 formatted) microSD card!!!
when done
- Power off your phone !
flashing stock 31.02
- enter download mode again (Vol+ & Vol-, connect phone to PC.......)
- this time in QFIL, browse in programmer path to "s60_stockFW_31.02" and select the programmer from there
- load XML's (the onces that belong to Stock31.02)
- start download... this will take a while !!!! BE PATIENT !!!!
- when QFIL status window shows finish download, push the reset button on the phone and let it reboot.
- it is normal, that the phone should restart itself 2, maximum 3 times at the first start, but sometimes it ends up in a bootloop (Cat Logo, reboot, CAT logo, reboot, etc, etc, .......)
(The bootloop mainly happens, if you clear, in twrp recovery, the whole OS, but that's no issue either...)
- if it ends up in a bootloop, no worries, just continue ! Believe me, i did the process now several times ! )
you are back on stock 31.02 !
-Power off your phone again
Updating to 032
- bring up minimal ADB sideload on your PC (start it, if not allready done in previous step (getting twrp)).
- press and hold POWER and VOL+ button on your phone - RECOVERY MODE -
- when in stock recovery select (with Volume keys) "adb sideload" and click the Powerbutton
- connect your phone to the PC
- on PC, type into the black ADB Terminal window "adb sideload update032.zip" and hit enter
- if drivers are there, phone will start downloading the update now.
- when complete, select clear cache, and clear data then reboot your phone.
- again, same as in the step (flashing stock), if bootloop, no worries, just continue, if it boots up, let it boot up and then..
you're on 032 now
- Power off the phone again
Updating to 033
- do the same steps as described under "Updating to 032" only difference, type in adb window " adb sideload update033.zip"
After updating to 033 your phone should boot up normally now, NO MORE BOOTLOOP !
getting twrp
- this is the same step as above "getting twrp" only difference, this time, no backup needed and...
- when in twrp-recovery, select "install" browse to your micro SD-card, and...
- install SuperSU.zip from SDcard.
- once more, clear cache and data and reboot.
The phone should boot up now, you should be on FW 033, with custom recovery and root !!!
That's all !!!
Would a TWRP or fastboot flashable stock recovery let us apply future OTA updates without wiping and starting from stock 031 if we're using systemless root like Magisk?
From stock recovery you can reboot to bootloader which puts us in fastboot (you can select boot mode with Vol +/-), so I'm thinking if we could boot TWRP from fastboot (without flashing, obviously), we could back up the stock recovery. Then when the next update comes around, we flash stock recovery back, apply the update, then reflash TWRP.
I tried fastboot boot recovery.img from update-twrp-recovery-nobootpatch but I got
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
and rebooting into recovery from there just got me stock recovery which makes sense.
QCN please
Hi guys, can anyone share me QCN backup of S60 because i've lost it! Thanks.
Last update for Android 6.0 was from 766 days ago.
Any suggestions on how to patch?
Thanks a million
