have you tried disconnecting / reconnecting the battery of the phone after flashing? then check if it powers on afterwards
did you try using this version of SPft supplied by homtom @ [ Login to download] ? (and all the DA files within the compressed zip)
and you're supposed to flash preloader.bin and not preloader***.img (preloader.img contain extra junk data)
(13-02-2019, 11:50 AM)wonderpoop The PC doesn't read the phone after disconnecting the battery. Tried the SPFLASH homtom provides, and, all button combinations.

Bought the phone from AliExpress on a sale. It appears that this preloader from their website is incorrect for my phone.
Even took their da file and tried flashing other versions of SPFT. See a new version is available, on SPFLASH, going to try that.

does the PC make any sound when you connect the phone? does device manager refresh?
do you remember the original build number of the phone?
there's a second firmware build for HT70 listed @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-15788.html
how many DA files did you try within that particular SP flash tool version?

(13-02-2019, 10:13 PM)wonderpoop It's V02
Device manager refreshes, shows up as MTK USB, can install vcom preloader drivers, still same error.
Started at by running spflash 5.1824, loaded DA files going backwards until I got to v5.15 then got an error, would have to do that all over again to say what error, since it was weeks ago.

This error indicates that the DA isn't compatible or accepted.
Have you been able to bump into a Hompton Auth File?
On a parallel note
in sp flash tool window, press control + alt + v
it should enable advanced mode, now click window at the top menu > then write memory
Try writing any partitions's file (get the address from scatter file). I doubt it'll work but I just need to confirm
