[Tutorial] How to fix MTK or SPD bricked after interrupting flash or backup
(06-11-2014, 02:48 PM)hovatek This guide will come in handy for Mediatek (MTK) and Spreadtrum (SPD) Android device users who suddenly end up with a totally dead device that won't power up or respond to buttons (but makes a sound when connected to a PC) as a result of intentionally or unintentionally interrupting the flash or backup process. Interruption could be triggered by shaking / unplugging the USB cord or even an error popup / prompt in the tool you're using. On rare occasions, its triggered just after a successful backup / flash using a Mediatek flash / backup tool
Tips to speed up reviving your phone
- Take out and re-insert the battery then try powering on (this is the quickest approach)
- Disconnect / take out the battery > Connect the phone to a charger without battery inside > Slot in the battery while the phone is still connected to the charger > Press the power button
- You could keep pressing the Volume up + Power button while charging
- If your device has an inbuilt battery then hold down the power button, connect the device to a power source (charger) and wait till the phone comes up
- You could remove and boost the battery using a desktop / external charger then resume internal charging.
- Uninstall then re-install MTK preloader vcom drivers or SCI drivers for SPD
