[Please help] SP flash tool error unable to flash, wrong EMMC

[Dave199011]

Have you ever seen something like this or I'm the first one?

SP Flash tool is unable to write anything on the phone.

Take a look at the bottom of the attached image:

1- EMMC show a SAMSUNG device with wrong specification but my device is HUAWEI G610-U20 (actually U00 but with a fake name).

2- Also it shows 8GB of DRAM but it's wrong too.

It's possible that I have flashed a wrong ROM and my MBR has been deleted and now I can't write to my device and fix the problem.


Have you ever seen wrong configuration info on SP flash tool and being Unable to write on the phone?


Any help appreciated.

Error 3149. Thats equivalent to the No Space error. Happens when you're trying to flash the wrong ROM or the emmc is faulty.
Try using the latest version of SP flash tool @ https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-13970.html instead and let me know what error you get

Newer version of SP flash tool are unable to recognize my device, however as you suggested, I tried few options (Firmware upgrade, format download all, download only, auto format, whole format and manual format) and all failed at the beginning (device connection).

The only SP flash tool that is able to recognize my device is the v.13.1320.0.sn174

BTW, how did the phone get bricked?

[Dave199011]

I tried to fix errors before using the old SP flash tool version.
I think flashing wrong ROM with dload folder method in sdcard is the cause.
Anyway to format the whole EMMC and repartition again from scatter or any other source?

This firmware you're trying to flash, are you certain its for your exact model?

Yes it's.

Is there anyway to process a dumped ROM_ (from mtk droid tools) without scatter.pmt file ?

[hovatek]

Yes it's.

I don't think so.
Lets focus on the latest version of SP flash tool. Are you saying flashing doesn't even commence? As in no activity on SP flash tool?

I think I figured out the main problem.

Due to wrong flash, PMT changed partition layout and instead of 4GB of internal memory, my device shows 8GB.

Is there any way to read back PMT to change partition layout?
