Hey!

(Please read the TLDR first which leads straight to the point if that makes things faster. Thanks.)

My issue is something similar to this one right here: https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-34488-page-3.html
but I'll start from the beginning.

Yesterday night, I tried to root my fully working Tecno Camon 15. I unlocked bootloader, restarted the phone to verify it and then took it back to fastboot where I first flashed an empty vbmeta file and then flash a magisk-patched boot img but that's where I messed up. I forgot to disable verity which resulted in an "Orange State" bootloop (My phone kept rebooting after that message which tells you that the phone is unlocked and can't be trusted).

I looked for around 7 hours online and finally found Hovatek. I followed this post and downloaded both the roms, extracted them in a folder etc. after which I went into the SPF tool and selected the right DA and Auth files (Both of them by X3non on Hovatek). The very first ROM I tried was the (CD7-H6214AB-Q-200102V359) one which resulted in (STATUS_SEC_IMG_TYPE_MISMATCH) by SPF and the "SoftwareDownload_V4.XX" both. I then tried the other ROM too on both tools which too failed.

I understand that I should've just flashed the boot.img and get it over with but I didn't know better and used the Firmware Upgrade option on both tools which failed. Then I tried my luck with the download only option which too failed on both tools.

TL;DR:
- As of right now both SPF and "SoftwareDownload_V4.XX" return STATUS_SEC_IMG_TYPE_MISMATCH on both the ROMS.
- I should tell you that I didn't check the build number before flashing (My second f up) nor can I find it anywhere on or inside the phone box.
- This is a quote from the thread I linked at the very top: "Whenever I select boot, preloader, recovery separately, they flash successfully, but partitions like tkv-verifieddtbo-verified, [i]vbmeta_system-verified, [i]vbmeta_vendor-verified, [i]super-verified gives me  mismatch error.[/i][/i][/i]"

Please help. I too broke to afford a new phone. I just bought this one like 2 months ago.
