When you select download only, the partitions gets wiped and flashed to. With firmware upgrade, there is a repartitioning...
Question: please boss I did not really understand this term "firmware upgrade there is repartitioning

Your emmc has a fixed size, partitioned / separared. Boot has its own, recovery, system etc
For download, boot.img gets sent to the boot partition, same for others . The existing partition arrangement / allocation is retained / used
For firmware upgrade / format, a new partition arrangement is created using the scatter file before downloading to each partition

Why does the flash tool have so many errors anyway. I think the developer who created flash tool should review it..At least if a device is unable to flash it should run back to recovery mode
