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)

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...

Hi people, please help!
I recently bought a rebranded iNew i3000 smartphone (1,5GHz quadcore MTK 6589 based, 1GB RAM, Dual SIM). Unfortunately the rebranding shop here had their own ROM installed (Greek/Turbo-X brand) which had no Gapps installed so i decided to flash the ROM to the original stock one, downloaded by the official site of iNew. After the flash, the new ROM works better than expected, with Gapps installed and some tweaks as well, but my capacitive buttons are now dead. Any ideas on how to resurrect the "menu"/"back" buttons?
PS ("Home" button apparently works fine)
How did you flash new firmware? i have tried using sp flash tools, mtk flash tools and even 6589 upgrade tool, but with no success. after loaded scatter file to sp flash tool and clicked firmware download or just download, it starts right away to run purple bars and then says "ANDROID checksum failed". And my phone isn't yet even connected to computer. iNew i3000.
i flash the inew i3000 me too, but the problem is the front camera dosent working, any help? thank
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.

Hello, this is herna from XDA Assist.
I´m sorry for what you faced with your device, but this is the main problem about buying and using clone devices. I can´t help with that since there a ton of clones and most of clones use to be very poor devices.
My suggestion is you to try to reach whoever sent you the device or the company which created it, or try to search on Google for someone who also has the device.
As a personal suggestion, if you are out of money, next time you buy a device, and wanna custom it and play with it like you tried with your device, try to reach some Motorola or "most famous" device, where you will have a bigger development under it, and you will have solutions for almost all the troubles.
I wish you get back your device on working, and also wish you to spend a nice weekend.
Hello,
I have this stupid phone Lenovo A806 (that's what it says on the back when I removed the battery)
IMEI#864785022778279
CMIT ID: 2014CP2954
the rest is in Chinese (or whatever)
the f* has been bricked and it shows only the LENOVO logo on the startup and on the bottom it shows Tool DL image fail
I tried some different ROM's still same ****
Can anyone please guide me to the right ROM or Firmware or Software whatever the f* they are called
software that i used to flash is MediaTek SP Flash tool v5.17
thanks
,..
A strange cause
It happened with me, try changing its battery. Also you can go for asop rom, it will be as good as a new phone after that. Using it for more than 2 years now.
