[Please help] Unbrick Tecno Spark KC8
[Please help] Unbrick Tecno Spark KC8
(20-11-2020, 01:11 AM)thomasphillips3 I unlocked my Tecno Spark KC8's bootloader and flashed a custom recovery (TWRP) before I realized that there was a different process required for MediaTek devices. Now, it is stuck in a boot loop that says
```
Orange State
Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted
Your device will boot in 5 seconds
```
I have installed SPTool on my Ubuntu VM, and downloaded a firmware package (KC8-H6110LMN-P-191006V111). When I load the scatter file (MT6761_Android_scatter.txt) into SPTool, I get
SP FLASH TOOL ERROR: (8417)
The load scatter file is invalid!
I've checked the file, and can't find any glaring issues with it. Can someone please help?

* I actually did flash a vb_meta file, but it was for the wrong device. I think it was for Tecno Spark Lite
* I don't have Windows, which is why I'm using Ubuntu (on a Mac host). Is there a supported Linux version of the tool, or should I find a copy of Windows?

The device itself is still in a boot loop. I have tried all hard key combos I could find online to enter recover mode, but no luck. Is there any other step I may be missing?
