Installing TWRP custom recovery from Sp Flash tool | Lenovo k8 note - General Questions and Answers

Hey developers,
I need help with TWRP custom recovery.
Recently I flashed my Phone with Manning Oreo Stock ROM, I successfully flashed but Now I want to install Twrp custom recovery, I tried many times but it fails every time. So I decided to flash TWRP with the help of the Sp Flash tool. I download the latest twrp.img file and renamed it recovery.img. I replaced it from Manning Oreo Stock Rom's recovery. Now I started SP flash tool and selected scatter file but while loading scatter file it shows this error "ROM[recovery] checksum mismatch: checksum_config[0x1a11], checksum_val[0xc8ab]". I know why this error appear because I haven't changed the below values from scatter file
- partition_index: SYS2
partition_name: recovery
file_name: recovery.img
is_download: true
type: NORMAL_ROM
linear_start_addr: 0x8000
physical_start_addr: 0x8000
partition_size: 0x1000000
region: EMMC_USER
storage: HW_STORAGE_EMMC
boundary_check: true
is_reserved: false
operation_type: UPDATE
is_upgradable: true
empty_boot_needed: false
reserve: 0x00
The above values are set for Manning Oreo Stock ROM's recovery so I have to change it but I don't know what values I put it above. I'm using the latest TWRP v3.3. If anyone can help or correct Me.
Thanks in Adnvace

[UTIL][ALL][MT65XX] Partitions Resizer

Hi every one.
Only for rooted MT65XX phones, tested with MT6592, MT6589 and MT6582.
In Mediatek phones, the total storage space is shared between the ANDROID (/system), CACHE, DATA (on witch apps will be installed) and FAT (Phone Storage, like an internal SDCARD)
With this tool you can decide witch space to give to eatch part, by resizing any of those 4 partitions.
It is useful if you have already an external SDCARD and you do not need the Phone Storage, so with this program, you can give the DATA the max of space.
0- Do a full backup of your rom in the recovery (important!)
1- Do a backup with MtkDroidTools and create, always with MtkDroidTools, the files for SPFlashTool.
2- With this program, open the scatter freshly created in step 1, resize as you want, and apply changes. (to avoid resizing the partitions you do not want to resize, disable their resize using the small colored buttons)
The new scatter will be created in the same folder than the original as 'MT65XX_Android_Scatter_MOD.txt'
3- Do a "firmware upgrade" with SPFlashTool and the new modded scatter
4- Enter the recovery and do a full restore.
It is a Java program (jar file) so you can execute it under any OS, with java installed : www.java.com
the sources are in the jar file, or here : https://code.google.com/p/jmtkdataresizer
ChangeLog:
=========
- V1.0 : first version, only data/fat resizer
- V2.0 : can resize the 4 partitions ANDROID/CACHE/DATA/FAT, and add the possibilty to disable resize for some partitions (the small colored buttons)
- V2.1 : some cosmetic and minor changes
- V2.2 : can now accept scatters without FAT size information (in this case, only other partitions can be resized)
- V2.3 : add the ability to use firmware.info if present, if not it will ask for the FAT partition size, if the scatter does not contains this info : thank you iZLeeP
- V2.31: can handle now scatter without FAT partition.
- V2.32: correct a bug with some firmware.info files
Tips:
1- the file firmware.info is created by MtkDroidTools while backuping, copy it in the same directory than the scatter or its parent, it will be detected and used if needed.
2- if you want to be sur that the new modded scatter is correct, open it with this program and try to resize : if the apply button is enabled --> OK (do not apply, just a test)
Enjoy

A good idea
Il will add that in the future version.
The cache partition must be touched too!
It will be so ANDROID/CACHE/DATA/FAT resizer (ANDROID= /system) it will be complicated.
It will be my next goal.
Thank you for your interest

The apply button is disabled when the program can not find the partitions, given in the scatter, in the boot sectors MBR, EBR1 and EBR2.
Can you give me those 4 files : scatter, MBR, EBR1 and EBR2 (if exists) ?

@dreambo Here are the files. See the attached files and remove ".txt" from MBR EBR1 and EBR2 had to rename them as XDA won't let them upload

He is the log I have with those files:
Code:
FAT and DATA sizes must be present in the scatter file!
Please check your scatter (it is made by MtkDroiTools ?)
You can manualy add DATA and FAT sizes in the scatter using MtkDroiTools
Partitions: {ANDROID={0=EBR1}, USRDATA={2=EBR1}, CACHE={1=EBR1}, FAT={0=EBR2}}
totalSize=5377097728 byte (100%)
Before:
sysSize=947912704 byte (18%)
cacheSize=134217728 byte (2%)
dataSize=4294967296 byte (80%)
fatSize=0 byte (0%)
I am not sure that those files are the same you have test in you previous post, the log was different, the probleme was the boot records (perhaps not in the same folder than the scatter) and not the scatter (patition sizes was found) but Now, the boot records are OK (partitions was found) but not the scatter : the FAT size is 0!
If I merge the 2 logs, I can add the fat size from the previous log, to the scatter you give me, and the result is OK :
Code:
Partitions: {ANDROID={0=EBR1}, USRDATA={2=EBR1}, CACHE={1=EBR1}, FAT={0=EBR2}}
totalSize=15528361984 byte (100%)
Before:
sysSize=947912704 byte (6%)
cacheSize=134217728 byte (1%)
dataSize=4294967296 byte (28%)
fatSize=10151264256 byte (65%)
So, just open you scatter you give me in text editor, and replace the line "partition_size: 0x0" with this "partition_size: 0x25D100000" in the FAT section (partition_index: SYS19) and you will be able to resize your partitions.
do not forgot, the scatter and boot records (MBR, EBR1 and EBR2) must be in the same folder!
I am waiting your feedback.

here the correct scatter.
copy it in the same folder as MBR, EBR1 and EBR2, open it with JMTKResizer and you can resize your partitions

Sorry for that
First, you have always the original scatter (never touched by the program) you can reflash it and revive the phone.
Second, some rules that we must know before using this program :
1- We must know what we are doing, if we resize a partition we must be sure that the image file designed for this partition can fit in the new partition
2- With SPFlashTool, we have to do (as mentinned in the help) a "firmware upgrade" or "format and download all", because we have touched the scatter structure
3- All files must to be provided to SPFlashTool, not only the modded ones.
I have used this program to resize the DATA/FAT partitions for my phone, and it is working as I expect now, it is a STAR N9800, an MT6592 like yours

[ROM] Fake Lenovo S900 5.5'' Unbrick [4.2.2]

I have a fake Lenovo S900 with a lot of apps that fake the real specs of this phone, so I made this rom base in the oficial ROM for Cubot GT88 since it is idential in the real hardware specs.
If you want a clean rom for your fake phone, then install this ROM check the real specs and dont have any other problems, so enjoy it.
1. Make a backup of your nvram with the MTKdroid Tools (IMEI backup)
2. Do a factory restore (dont do this part without previously backup your nvram o imei backup)
3. Use the Flash Tool to install this ROM.
4. Restore the nvram or imei.

thank you very much!
still appears as lenovo?

I was the same
the problem is the launcher, which is corrupt
I solved it like this:
down the notification bar and enter settings
click on settings (sometimes not work the first time, try more times)
once in settings, go to Applications
locate the store play
install any launcher to your liking
once installed, should have finished your problem, try and comment
im a noob here so i cant post links or files :/
I'm back to say that my fake S900 is ok again. i useD the romfrom heldigard friend. with this rom several software problems have been resolved, as the HDR CAM which no longer turns off the camera after taking a photo HDR. im testing more apps.
I do not know if it was that, but I did several extra steps.
installed the android SDK following these steps.
used drivers: ADB_usb_driver_120827_v3 and A25_USB_VCOM_Drivers
1- GOOGLE SEARCH: [TUTORIAL] Como instalar o SDK TOOLS e habilitar o ADB
2- YOUTUBE SEARCH: How To Flash ROM for Every China Phone with the SP Flash Tool ! [HD]
i just flashed "system.img" in ANDROID section of sp_tools.
after all installed mtkdroid_tools use to extract and save your android_scatter.txt-it
sp_tools open, choose your android_scatter, select ANDROID in the list below, and choose system.img.
click download
OFF with the device connect it to the USB
wait a few seconds and the sp_tools begin the the update
then just restart your phone
NOW YOU HAVE A CUBOT START SCREEN. NO MORE LENOVO.
wohooooooooooooooooooo!

Hola! llevo con el telefono brickeado mas de un mes, he probado lo imposible y con todo tipo de FW y no hay manera de conseguir hacerlo volver a la vida.
Llevaba bastante esperando que alguien subiera una ROM cualquiera para probar si por fin conseguia la barra verde en el flashtool pero me sigue dando el error de siempre:
http: // i57.tinypic.com / 16a9rhe.png (quitar los espacios del link)
El telefono esta totalmente brickeado y ni enciende, ya lo habia dejado por imposible.
Muchas gracias!

[Completed] MTK6572 M8 SP Flash Tools Scatter file question

Hi there,
I have an MTK6572 M8 4.2.2 HTC clone that I picked up 2nd hand. The previous owner had somehow installed KingRoot as an embedded system app and all attempts to remove it completely have failed. My only option appears to be to apply a new system.img file.
I created an SP Flash Tool scatter file and have found a ROM whose scatter file indicates that the contents of this ROM are identical (almost) to that of the phone I am trying to fix. When I compare the 2 scatter files one line differs, see following text. I've tried Root Browser (with root) to get rid of the KingRoot.apk from the system/apps dir but it refuses to 'go away'.

The contents of each scatter file is identical apart from the line marked XXXXX partition_size: 0xB49C0000
My questions are.
1. Do I need to make modifications during the SP Flash Tool flashing process to make sure that I don't damage anything?
2. Is it enough to just flash the system.img file on it's own? Which would mean that I don't have to worry about the variation in partition sizes, just select the system.img file and download to phone, which I believe will replace my system dir with the original.
Sorry if I have asked any dumb questions, but when you are on the brink of doing something that might trash your phone you should at least seek a 2nd opinion from someone more who has more experience (less fear).
Thanks in advance for your advice.
