Also, check your inbox (at the top), we've sent you a private message.
(12-07-2014, 06:25 PM)hovatek the file you sent was our own backup, what we need are individual files from your end, waiting for those. In the mean time, After loading scatter file in sp flash tool,
1. What items are ticked
2. What items aren't ticked?
(12-07-2014, 06:36 PM)bhovuh if that was ur backup, that is the backup i used, downloaded it from there.If i get you right, you didn't use the scatter file in our backup you downloaded. Where did you get the scatter file you used?
i ticked all the items i listed above that i was allowed to load via the scatter file i attached in the email i sent.
I tried flashing just the boot, recovery and system files at first, when its downloading to the fone, i tried flashing just the preloader, then i ticked all of them for loading.
Thanks for ur response.
