Hello friends, new user and noob here.
I came to this forum thanks to a thread of user @Warlockguitarman who explains how to root/unlock LG phones in general.
My problem is that I tried to downgrade this phone to unlock the GSM carrier (original MetroPCS) using LGUP and an old firmware of the carrier, and the downgrade worked, but the unlocker tool didn't work with that firmware, so I tried again with the oldest firmware I could find (10F) and well, the phone became a nice little brick since then.
Working with different solutions, and thanks to the tutorial by @Warlockguitarman I somewhat make some progress, and now the device is recognized as Mediatek without the connect/disconnect status and I can use SP Flash Tool.
The thing is I don't have anything to work with. I found a scatter file alledgly for K51, but it didn't work.
Maybe some user here have scatter from a backup to try to revive this thing?
Thanks all for your time and responses! I appreciate any help I could get.

Unbricking isn't so difficult.
Since the device now gets detected in BROM Mode (Mediatek USB Port), the next thing is to build a scatter file from your extracted kdz then go the SP flash tool + MTK Bypass route or just use MTK Client
Building a scatter is a little beyond my experience.
Is there any guide or tutorial to learn how to do it?
Many thanks for your answer!

Hey guys
I have an Xperia C4 Dual E5333
I flashed it using Flashtool 0.9.23 to Marshmallow
Everything was okay except the Security tab
I tried flashing it to Lollipop using the older version ( which is not going to brick it 0.9.19/18 ) and it failed
So I flashed it using 0.9.23 version... and guess what! Bricked
No Sony logo
Only MTK device in the device manager with a red light
I used SP flash tool but the MTK6752 scatter file I downloaded did not work ( GET DRAM SETTING FAIL )
No scatter file was found in the Official ftf. I tried several ftf
Vcom driver was installed using different methods but gave me Hell. Any proper way Win 10
I would really appreciate it if someone would give me the specific scatter txt file for this device and it would be really nice if some angel <3 makes a tutorial for this very topic. Dead boot @[email protected]

Please help me

And will work !! Wmshua will give you errors use this offical way if you haven't yet unlocked bootloder if then i cant say what to do.
Hi,
I am a little new and don't really know about this subject but :
I purchased a new phone : a Gome K1.
This is not tablet but phone. This is a new brandt. This a MTK (MT6757).
For the story, it came to me with chinese ROM, all menus in chinese
I asked to the seller to give me a ROM with playstore and french. They done it.
I flashed their new ROM with a proprietary flash tool. Now I have a android 6 ROM with Playstore, french menus. Well !
But I'd like to know if there is a way to root it, and install a TWRP :
The ROM came with bootloader locked and no recovery. It is entirely blocked.
No way to unlock bootloader via the general way (fastboot oem unlock --> unknown command)
I read some articles that deal with spflashtool and porting TWRP, but I'm new to this and I don't think I will be able to make all these steps correctly to flash a TWRP ...
Does someone has an idea ?
Is my post on the good topic ?
Up, does someone have an idea of how to root it ?
Hello,i also have a Gome K1 phone and I am also interested at rooting it.
There is an ' OEM unlocking option' under the developers option in the settings, have you tried that yet?
If you managed to import twrp and rooted the phone can you pls send here the steps, Thanks
Hello, happy to not be alone with this phone ...
Yes I tried everything, after enabling unknown source, OEM unlocking and USB Debugging developer options :
- All root apks
- all existing root kits using ADB
- Method with a linux distro to access Phone filesystem as root ( cannot see my phone ... )
Now I'm trying to use SP flashtool last version, but even that cannot correctly access the phone to Readback my recovery : there is BROM error, so I think that phone is not compatible with the phone (seen on a forum ...)
So if someone has an idea, he is welcome

When I contacted them, they send me a non rooted custom ROM which embed Google Apps and All language, AND another flash tool.
This flash tool seems to be based on SP flash tool. It seems to have restrictions (no readback ability ...).
I'm not able to backup anything with this tool or with SP flash tool.
Whis spflashtool, when clicking ReadBack, I power off my phone, and plug USB cable.
It begins the process but I immediatly encounter a BROM error :
ERROR: status_brom_cmd_send_da_fail (0xC0060003)
I read a post which indicate to try to plug usb cable when pressing Power plus Volume Up, but I don't think it can work, because I know that their tool works without that operation.
So now I'm still stuck here. Does someone have an idea ?
Hi
On the Russian forum 4pda, the topic GOME K1 we are also discussing and trying to solve the problem of a locked bootloader. So far no results. ROOT is also not yet possible to get.
I've also ported twrp for GOME K1, but there's no point in installing it until the bootloader is unlocked. Otherwise we will get a brick.
Hi
In Developer options there is a setting to unlock bootloader, it's the third toggle down.
Hope this helps.

No, it's not working. This switch does not affect the boot loader state.

Hello vsxby,
I was successful in flashing custom ROM that vendor uploaded for me.
So I thing I can flash just the recovery with their tool. I'm not an expert, so I'm just a little affraid to follow a guide to port a TRWP for Gome K1 and try to flash it, since it can brick the phone.
If you want, I can't send you a copy of their tool they sent to me (SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject.exe) ...

Thank you, but I already have this tool. As I wrote before flashing TWRP we need to unlock the bootloader. While this is not impossible to do. But one of our users on 4pda is going to ask the manufacturer to unlock bootloader. In case of success, I will inform you.
If you want to experiment and flash TWRP with a locked bootloader, I can give you the TWRP I made, but I warn you, it's not safe.
Bro,Can you upload the firmware and tools to google drive or something like? It will be very helpful for dealing with this mediatek replica phone(aus6757_66_m),i got some possible factory test MTK AOSP,but the link expires ：（

Any flash tool for this device?
QFIL tool and MSM Download tool was mentioned in forums but could not get it to work
The firmware .ozip is not supported by QFIL. Even upon extraction, there was no .mbn file in the extract folder that QFIL tool usually requires.
FWIW - both QFIL and MSMDownloadtool won't work because the correct firehose loader doesn't seem to be out there
I'm working on something, BUT I need root to make a full backup of the /data partition
That doesn't go as far as custom a ROM as I cannot jeopardize the data

Hi, guys, I am really needing help.
I have bougth a chinese android tablet model tb128fu. I was worried with the safety of the tablet's ROM, I was suspecting it was a shop ROM. So, I downloaded LMSA (Lenovo Rescue and Smart Assistant) to flash an another ROM (even I have read in LMSA app that flashing ROM mustn't be done in chinese devices - I was very stupid) and it bricked my tablet. Tablet entered into a reboot mode loop: any chosen option was conducting to lenovo's logo and, after it, reboot menu again.
I have posted a question about it here in forum and people suggested to use ROM2box app. I tried to use it and I think it would solve my problem, but during ROM flashing in ROM2box my pc turned off (due to a residencial blackout) and now my tablet is completely died. VOL UP and DOWN and power off buttons are not working, and the screen doesn't show anything, in any situation (even during battery charging).
Please, help me!!! I think I have lost my tablet.
In PC's devices manager tablet is showed as Qualcoom HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3). Does it help anything to solve my problem?
I have also tried to flash some chinese ROM in tablet using QFIL, but all times it shows the follow error:
"Download Fail:Sahara Fail:QSaharaServer Failrocess fail"
I am thankful anyway. Thank you for your attention.
Re-flash tablets Stock ROM.
BTW:
Tablet isn't hardbricked but softbricked, IMO
With the "hardbrick" usually a part of the low-level firmware is damaged, e.g. the bootloader, the "radio firmware" or other firmware, which is necessary for the operation of the SoC (System-on-Chip). To re-install this firmware, special hardware (usually JTAG) is required, as well as expert knowledge and corresponding image files are often not publicly available (at least not officially). It's like "shooting" the BIOS/EFI on a PC.
With a "softbrick," only the operating system is damaged, e.g. the Android kernel or the system libraries. You can reflash the device.

you dont need that as far as you can get into EDL mode you can flash with miracle tool box
So the Miracle Tool support SM-N976V SW Rev . bit7 (U7) ? I didn't find it specifically mentioned anywhere. In the EDL mode the Qualcomm sm8150 requires the firehose programmer. For other models this file seems to available so there is hope that for this model it can also be obtained from GSPN USA probably or from a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who passed by a Samsung building once wink wink.

Which firmware and which scatter file? It won't work with wrong ones. More specifics please.
Did you have a pre-made scatter file, that you have made before bricking/EDL ?
It is important to be precise.

Your stock rom it is in your stock rom just unpack it or use ODIN to unbrick
Odin does not see the phone because the phone is in 9008 EDL mode and the driver for that one is from Qualcomm. Odin wants a mode and driver from Samsung. For the Samsung download - Odin mode to work, the later Boot stages need to load. Those are messed up by wrong etoken bypass for the wrong Update version or wrong BL or tripepd knox erasure of the entire flash or something of that sort.
In the stock ROM I do not know which file you can call a scatterfile? Is it the PIT file which is used for formatting?
This is the 'stock ROM' correct ? https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-N976V/VZW/N976VVRU7HWB2
Well for sure the Miracle Box has a huge collection of loaders in the distribution, as well as XML files. Very interesting.
@Gudaji, it seems, however that with U7 there may be needed a new loader. The update "bit" is somehow set inside the CPU, which, from my understanding, prevents older loaders from working?

First of all do you have miracle tool box?
If so go to the Qualcomm tab and you will se flash tab under and then you select the files from your “extracted” firmware and flash while in EDL mode
The "Miracle Box Update 3.39 to 3.40 only for PS" informs me there is a new version and does not start. Maybe I do not have the right one.

Spammed the download mode with some wrong files. older etoken bypass, vbmeta disabled, KG disabled , eng. files, modem from other model, boot from other model, twrp recovery not sure which exactly was a successful flash and which were rejected due to checksum mismatch.
