[*] In the window that pops up, select the scatter file for your phone model then click Open (scatter file is a text file with the word "scatter" in its name )

[*] A list with ticked boxes should appear in SP flash tool (preloader, mbr, ebr etc)


[*] ~~~~

Step 6 is only for when you wish to format the phone. Skip if you don't wish to format
Warning! Do Not format unless you have the stock ROM for your exact phone model.

6a. Click Format at the top
6b. After clicking Format, a dialogue box will pop up, ensure that 'Auto Format Flash' and 'Format whole flash without Bootloader' are selected
6c. Click OK, Stop should now be red or green in color
6d. Connect the switched off phone (with battery inside) to the PC via USB cord
6e. A progress bar should load till you get a 'Success' message (green circle with OK)
6f. Disconnect the phone from PC

I flashed my phone with sp flash tool and unzipped super su.zip which installed the app but my phone was not rooted. Root access has not yet been granted. What went wrong and what can I do to get root access.
My phone build is
Hot 4 X557-H807AD-N-171110V163 (Nougat)

you're to locate the folder you've placed/extracted the full firmware including the scatter file in the dialog box, watch the video guide for better understanding.

I downloaded that version, but that is not working:

What next?
Thanks for your help.
