Can you post the scatter file and recovery so I can flash via SPflashtool?
You can try holding vol down button before connecting or running miracle on a pc running windows 7.
already tried that, it boots to factory mode when I do that
Run miracle on a pc with windows 7 OS.

Have you tried following this guide?
(27-08-2017, 11:42 AM)desexiet No
I followed your guide on how to root a certain phone once and the device have been dead since now
I created a thread on how to recover it and you people tried helping me but all the prescribed solutions seems not to work at all
So I don't want to try it again and brick this phone
I can't afford to do that again
Just wanted to know cos the hot 4 pro as any other Android phone have different variants

The worst that could happen is that the Philz won't be able to replace the stock recovery because of the difference in Build Numbers (yours is higher).
Do a full Miracle Box dump of your phone then provide the scatter file and recovery.bin from your dump.
as for your phone, unless you did something outside the instructions, its very unlikely to get bricked to that extent
