Teclast p98 4G (A8H6) SP Flashtool FAIL!!

Good Moons to everyone.....

I have a Teclast p98 4G (A8H6) and I have tried everything here on the post and many other forums, steps and instructions. I can't get the SP Flashtool to recognize the device. My windows will recognize it, after a lot of trouble I got the drivers installed, but still the same result with no feedback in SP Flashtool. I get ADB and Root working in MTK tools but I can't get anything to stick. It errors out with unable to write boot (not looking at the error right now), and I know MTK tools isn't really working/supported for this tablet.

Here is the link to the post with most of the details I tried. If anyone has any more ideas or tips, please let me know.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61074900&postcount=51

Update: it seems that its the 64bit sock that I have and the tool not supporting this soc Mt8752.

Waiting for an update.

Zopo ZP520 problem

Hi I have a zopo zp520 (MTK6852 8GB storage) it had a ridiculous partition size of 1GB for apps so I looked for another image to flash. Before I did this I used droid tools to make a flashable backup in case it did not work. I downloaded an image from Zopomobile.com (file name) ZP520_20141219-172938.zip which is a newer version from Zopo and used this to make an install it failed the first time I tried it because it said the flash has to be formatted. I formatted it and tried again and it worked but the IMEI was blank I looked this problem up and then flashed the nvram from the backup made earlier. This worked all OK and I now have a working phone with only 1 partition of about 7GB all OK.

The problem I have now is that the WiFi keeps on hanging the phone shows a strong signal but no data transfer turning wifi on and off makes no difference only way to fix it is to reboot .

Can I re-install the old files and OS but keep the new partition size?, I kind of think this can be done in spflashtool by choosing to flash my original backup but deselect a few partitions like ebr, mbr, and preloader. So that I do not brick the phone (it's important as it is my wife's phone) can someone confirm what parts of the backup made with droidtools I should flash.

Are you sure that rhe ROM is OK for your device?.

In which mode did you flash it? DOWLOAD ONLY or FIRNWARE UPGRADE.

Levae the phone disconnect from PC and without battery, press DOWNLOAD in Flashtool, then connect the phone.

If flash didn't start insert the battery.

boundary_check, is_download, is_reserved, reserve, operation_type in scatterfile

can anybody please explain what is the meaning of

- boundary_check

- is_download

- is_reserved

- reserve

- operation_type

in scatterfile?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Miss Montage:
"-is_download=true" means, that this partition will be downloaded and rewritten to your phone if you choose "download all" or "firmware upgrade".

"-boundary_check" probably means, that the position and length of the partition will be checked for conflicts with existing partitions.

"operation_type" defines the flash mode: Those, who will not be updated, are "bin-region" (for example the nvram with your IMEI in it), "protected" or "invisible".

The updatable ones are "bootloader" and "update".

"-reserve=true" means, that a specific region of the drive will be used for this partition. The scatter file I have in front of me only set value=true for sgpt (the partitioning program) and flashinfo (the partition table?).

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rzdz:

How can I make backup of the last two partitions and restore later?

Can these partitions be damaged by flashing USRDATA that is too big for the USRDATA partition?

My scatterfile read out from the phone does not really fit (ALCATEL-OT-C7-7041D_2BALDE1).

I cannot flash any of the backup files. It only works, if I use a scatterfile of ALCATEL-OT-7041X, but the partition for USRDATA is only 0x40000000 instead of original 0x82C00000. So I can only flash SYS0-SYS19 (below USRDATA).

If I try to flash USRDATA I think it will overlap the partition above and corrupt data.

So how can I correct the scatterfile to be accepted by SP flashtool?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Miss Montage:
If you are running a Windows PC, you can create a scatterfile of your existing partition table with MTK DroidTools.

Apart from that, you can also backup your userdata in the recovery. However it is not recommended to use this backup if you upgrade your phone to a new Android generation (e.g. from Kitkat to Lollipop).

SP flash tool error

Hi!

So i have a small problem with flashing back the old system to my phone. It is an umi x1s.

I used a custom updte.zip from cwm. It worked as i expected but now i want to get back to stock rom. The only problem that i forgot to make a backup with cwm.

BUT:

I created a full backup of the original stock rom with mtk droid tools, and than make it ready for sp flash tool. So the rom is 100% compatible with my phone.

When i try to flash only the system part right after the red bar i got an error 8038. Any idea what could be the problem?
