Huh
Hello I have a working Lumigon T3 with Android 6 Marshmellow and a bricked one that is in bootloop.
I have used SP Tool and WwR to get the img. files, and when flashing the system file I got the error 'Invalid sparse file format at header magi'
So I use the SparseConverter and now I get error 'fastboot failed (remote unknown chunk type)'

Can anybody help me to get the bricked one working again?

Kind regards,

Guido

Since you backed up with sp flash tool, why not flash using sp flash tool instead of fastboot?
