Important Notice
- If you get Error 1# during flashing then use Version 5.7
- Although Wiselink tool uses a scatter file, the format of the scatter file and firmware differs from other Mediatek scatter flash toolsÂ
- You can't flash a WiseLink tool format firmware in SP flash tool and vice versa without some modification
- It is best to only flash firmware for your model
