I recently tried to root my K3 note which was on marshmallow rom but fastboot didn't detect device after trying many solutions online i tried this to flash this recovery via sp tools https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note...p-t3346041.
First time the flash was success but the recovery didn't open while holding up vol and power buttons so i tried to reflash the recovery again this time i get  error saying the file is different from the device connected. Ever since then phone was bricked no opening expect showing up in sp tools so i tried to flash stock rom which i used in the past even then i kept getting errors like this .

1. Hope you're not holding any button when connecting to PC
2. Take out, re-insert the battery & retry flashing

what error do you get when you try latest SP flash tool version on this other PC?
can your phone still boot to homescreen?
and do you have a working stock rom / firmware for your device? OR you're still trying to flash the same recovery that couldn't boot

nope phone doesn't boot or go into recovery or show battery charging when charger connected.

i have  stock firmware which i have used in the past, it was the current rom to when i tried installing that custom recovery, i stopped trying custom recovery just want the phone to boot up .

take out / reinsert the battery of the phone (you will need to loosen the back cover of the phone if the battery is inbuilt) then connect to a charger and allow to charge for some hours. then try powering on the phone

if its still dead then retry flashing using latest SP flash tool

if you have a miracle box dongle, you can try that if not then use the guide at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21970.html to backup from the working phone
