Hello friends I have a tecno Ca7 i recently posted a query on how to port a twrp for the Device which i did successfully using the Hovatek's auto port tool.
After the whole process i booted into twrp and took a full backup of my device and i kept seeing a warning that twrp cannot mount data/storage...i unlocked my bootloader again which i noted it had locked itself but i don't know how...immediately after unlocking it i booted my device and i don't know what came into my mind and i decided to do a factory reset so i could copy my data from google drive.and that's the last time i saw my device on it powered off but never on...its not booting into recovery nor to fastboot all i see is a black screen but when i connect it to a computer i hear a connection sound...this morning i tried a tutorial from  phonesinnigeria.com/unbrick-hard-bricked-dead-mtk-android-device/  but am stuck at the sp flash tool asking for authentication. Please help on how to fix that error or another alternative.thanks in advance

did you try disconnecting / reconnecting the battery of the phone then try to power it on?
download factory firmware @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-23177.html and flash using software download tool @

SP flash tool's default auth file won't work on your phone model

what's the current state of your device? (totally dead OR stuck at boot)
how did the phone get bricked? and do you remember the build number of the phone before it got bricked?

there's no attachment
upload your screenshot to imgur.com and post the link here OR manually type out the build number from the screenshot and post it here
also how exactly did the phone go totally dead? (in details)
