Unbrick a Mya-L23 Huawei.
Hi recently I got my hands on a Mya-L23 and I thought it would be very good to use as a In Car Waze, so since I use a tasker app for this I needed root, so I did a booboo, rooted it wrong and ended up with a VERY nasty bootloop ( I even did open it to remove the batter ) , however I was able to recover it and see that it was almost unbrickable.
The Chip inside a Huawei Y5 2017 is basically a MT6737T so thankfully there's a tool we can use to write directly to the chip ! ( YAY ) it's called Smart Phone Flash Tool ( SP tool ) , so basically we are going to overwrite the whole phone so we have a new and fresh install.

you are going to need:
SP tools
you can get them from here ( 2019 )

Rom *this oneworked for me*
filename: Huawei_Y5_2017_MYA-L23_(Maya-L23C469B127)_by_(FirmwareOS.com).zip

you can look for other roms here:
https://firmwareos.com/category/huawei/page/2
https://firmware.gem-flash.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=folder&id=14554
The ROMS ARE HUGE !!!!!!!!!
- How to do it.
1- Install the MT drivers
2- Open the rom ( unzip it )
3- locate the "download agent file" ( this is a file that will tell SPtool what will be downloaded )
in the rom I used it was called: DA_SWSEC.bin and it was located in a folder called download agent
4-locate the scatter loading file ( inside the firmware folder of the rom ) , this is a text file in my case it was: MT6737T_Android_scatter.txt
5- Now open the SP flash tool
6- Press the download tab
it will have a screen with 3 things you can write, go to where it says: "Download agent" click on choose , and add the the download agent file you identified before
7-Load the scatter loading file, pressing on choose on the second choose button, if everything is ok it will read a lot of files, and will take like 10 minutes or so... be patient
8-you will see below this a select list that says:
Download Only, Firmware upgrade, format all + download
for now select: Download only, if it fails, try Firmware upgrade, if that fails, then Format all + download
8-WITHOUT THE PHONE CONNECTED TO THE PC PRESS the Green Download button on SP tool
9-Hold the VOL DOWN button on your phone ( even if it is on a boot loop )
10-Insert a USB cable from the PC to the phone, keep the VOL DOWN BUTTON PRESSED until it starts showing a yellow like , then the rom will be written to your phone. ( after this most likely it will be alive again )
11- Profit !
---------------------- Do all of this at your own risk ----------------------
Most likely this will work with other y5 or even other phone models with the right rom and download agent...
Have a nice day !

In this guide i will explain you how to flash stock ROM using spflash for your Mediatek devices in the simplest way possible
Requirements -
a phone with Mediatek SoC
Stock rom which you may or may not find on your vendor official website ( a quick Google search like : Stock rom download for <device codename/device name> would give you an Idea)
Mkt bypass tool
Spflash tool
A pc with windows or Linux installed (Linux May take some more steps to configure)
Steps
Open MKT bypass (attached below or find it from the internet)
Now click bypass button (if you get drivers not installed error follow this video use the lib usb application attached below)
Now connect your phone in power off state using USB and press power button and volume down and wait for mkt bypass to detect and start Bypassing once it is done remember the com port shown in logs
Now open spflash tool click load scatter file now go to your stock ROM folder and select mt<some number>.txt or .xml scatter (use Android scatter if not present) wait for it to process (see the attached image below)
[Shown with red colour in photo below]Now at the topmost tab go to options->connection-> select UART now select the com port shown in mkt Bypass tool go back to spflash main menu(if you can not find com port listed you can just use USB option instead)
Now un check "preloader" and "tranfs" from the files this is very important or you can brick your phone
Make sure download only option is selected and not format+download
we are ready to flash now just click the green download button and wait for the flashing to finish
Disconnect USB and reboot once the green tick mark appear
If you are still stuck in bootloop make sure to use Mt scatter and not android scatter
If you are still bootlooping go to spflash again untick preloader and super and flash after this go to phone recovery and wipe data, this should fix 99% of the bootloops
