SP Tool error 3001/2... Dram error. Dnt support dram.... Such error
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
It means that probably treh ROM is not right for your device.

Please post always the SP Flashtool version used.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vithlani2:
Nop... The ROM is fpr my device
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
Try with an other version of Flashtool.

The message that you wrote reporetd a problem between your hardware and the ROM that you want to load.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
Which SP Flashtool version?

Are you sure that ROM is for your harwdare device?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DeathOfChaos:
Somewhat confused...

I'm confused as to where the actual ROM file I'm wanting to flash to my phone actually comes in, it doesn't even seem to make an appearance anywhere in the tutorial... I have a Kingzone K1 Turbo and the 4.4 KitKat update that they provided on their official site, I'll even include the download page for it. (It's the K1 Turbo ROM for KitKat, the only one on the right side):

kingzone.cc/download2.aspx

It comes with Drivers (which I've pretty much left alone and installed said VCOM driver stated in this tutorial), the ROM (which is compressed) and Tools (which just includes SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1352.01). What's really confusing me is what I even do with the ROM file, this tutorial makes it seem like it doesn't even mean anything. The most I've done with it is taken the scatter file from it to use with SP Flash Tool, but I really don't wanna try to do this and somehow inject what could possibly be an empty flash, that just seems about like an equivalent to giving an empty injection of nothing but air. Anyway, I'd really appreciate it if I get some kind of answer back on this...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
Could you read carefully the first post?

This thread realtive only to flashtool. Is not a support thread for device xxxx.

You request is device specifc (how to use/handle fiel for your device). It's OT here.

For that you have to post in Kingone device model thread.

If is not availble open it.

Driver=Driver USB preloader

Tool= Flashtool application

ROM=ROM in Flashtool format
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DeathOfChaos:
My question isn't really device specific, it's specific to the instructions provided. My questions and concerns are about what I'm supposed to do with a ROM file (NOT specific, completely free form). I only gave my specifics in order to shed some light on my question. I'm quite positive that no matter what device you're using, a ROM file (whether it's custom, official or whatever device/software one might be following this tutorial to accomplish) is always going to be a part of the steps provided here. Am I supposed to just place the whole compressed folder onto the root of my SD card, extract them all into an uncompressed folder or do I only need files from within the compressed folder?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
I believe that before to post you should read carefully the first posts where are explaiend how to use the ROM file and Flashtool.

You didn't read it because otherwise you didn't tell about SD that has no realtion with SP Flashtool operation.

All info needs are availabel in first posts. Please read it carefully.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DeathOfChaos:
To appease you, I read it over carefully 4 or 5 times and still what I'm trying to figure out hasn't magically appeared. It uses the AllInOne.bin, that's a given since it goes to that by default. It wants a scatter file, yes, did that. Then that's where I get confused. There are WAY more files at play and none of them are mentioned as to what goes where for what reasons and so on and so forth. My ROM file is a compressed file with 17 items inside, you can't be serious that the only file that matters is the scatter file... do I keep the file zipped and place this compressed file in a specific directory on my phone or on my computer? Do I extract the compressed file and then run the scatter file from within that folder with the rest of the items? Do I place the scatter file in with the SP-tools folder? None of things things are made clear and I'd rather not brick my phone trying to figure this out.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
You continue to make question that has no relation with the object of this thread.

You ahve to downlaod ROM iamge file amnd SP Falshtool.

Decomress ROM file in a folder (any folder that you like).

Decomrpess Flashtool program archive (in amy fodler you like).

Riun SP Flashtool and load the scatter of your ROM. That's all.

Any other question is OT.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shrimpcraft:
As I have posted in the wrong thread, I hope this is where I may ask my question.

I have a ITOUCH DIGI MT6582 (Star S9500) phone . My question is, are there anyways I can restore the phone again because I accidentally flashed the whole ROM_0 into the checked RECOVERY instead of just flashing the recovery.img from the backup folder in MTK Droid Root & Tools........ The phone has soft bricked, but it can still be detected by sp flash tool and still turn on when plugged into charging cable.

To bovirus, according to your post in the other thread, I just need to flash stock rom_0 from read back and the phone should load again? If so, how can it be done with sp flash tool? Thank you.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
Please remove the QUOTE of first post. Your post is long just one line.

The QUOET of first post is completly unseful.

If th3 flashing was OK was a problem of your ROM files about your device.

Probably the problem could be also a device with different hardware drivers than your ROM file.,

But is not a question for Flashtool thread but for your device thread.

Bricked device and getting errors

Haven't found anything else on the Forum that helped me so far, my Problem: I wanted to update the firmware of my 'Cubot S168' and grabbed the files from the official Cubot site.

Installed all drivers and also MTK-Droid-Tool and the SP-Flashtool. While i was flashing ,the device disconnected for a short period of time and the process was interrupted.

Somehow the preloader (and also other files i think) were damaged. I managed to acces the mtk low level connection layer so the phone gets recognized by the PC again.

When i now try to flash the preloader, the red progress bar gets stuck at 100% and after 5-15 mins i get the Brom_Error: S_FT_DA_NO_RESPONSE (4001) if i use the v5 tool or

the Brom_Error: S_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY (1010) if i use the v3 tool. I also tried different drivers, different SP-Flashtools, different Firmware versions (official ones) and even

different PC's! Need some help, start to feel desperate :(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
Please read carefully the first posts.

Pelase check without running Flashtool, if you connect the device (without battery) to the PC, PC for few second recognize iot and show USB driver.

Then if pass first stepp, dsiconnect the device. from PC, Riun Flashtool, select scatter file of you ROM, check that Flashtool is iN DOWNLAOD mode, and selecT DOWNLAOD.

Only after you selected DOWNLAOD connect the phone (without battery) to the PC via USB cable.

Check if flash start, If it didn't start elave the phone connected and insert the battery.

Hi,

the SPFlashTool wipes all partitions, we know.. And therefore also the IMEI f.e. is gone..

Is there a way to flash without losing the complete data partition (IMEI, App Data, ...)?

It drives me crazy every time I have to root, restore, flash cwm, ... I just wanted a updated ROM and now I have a broken one. (Restored it again with root privilegs, as I did it all the times before)..

On the other side: Rockchip-devices also lost their whole partitions after flashing new rom.. :(

Hi, I use this many times with multiple phones.

I'm now trying it again for the 1st time on my THL 5000 trying to rightback an old backup of my OEM rom that I have done with MTK Droid tool 2.5.2.

I actually have 2 backups.

When I connect my phone after having clicked on the Download, only the Yellow status bar runs and I quickly get the Green success popup...

...But nothing has really been downloaded to the phone since it still is has before (all my apps and setings are untouched).

I never had that problem before... Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Great Tutorial

I just finished running this tutorial, and it fix my friend Jiayu S3. :o

It came with the no Gaps android version.

I couldn't change my W8.1 to accept no signed drivers, so I used an old XP.

I flashed the Gaps version with no problem at all.

Thanks :good::good::good:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
Sorry but with relation has you post with SP Flashtool?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bernardoko:
The relation is that in the tutorial the first step is: "•First of all, make sure that you have MediaTek DA USB VCOM drivers installed"

because I couldn't install them in my W8.1 PC, I mentioned that I succeeded to install the drivers in my XP PC and run SP Flashtool .
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
But i t is not related to the driver but to the operative system.

Windows7/Windows8 require driver signed (or you have to temporary disable driver sign off at boot).

And it's valid for any driver (not only for Mediatek driver).

Hi I have a not well knows tablet Prestigio PMT7177 10'' . 4.4.2 Jelly Bean, MTK8389.

I cannot manage to make SP flash tools to ReadBack from it or Flash anything.

I have 2004 error, I have checked cables Drivers, ( I had installed alot, especially prerloader) computers, windows Versions, and SP flash tools Versions.

I want to ask , When a device has locked bootloader ( I don't know if this one had one ) is it possible to Read Back or Flash with SPflashtools? I ask that because I had read in the net that if bootloader is locked SP Flash tools is not working, and something else preloader.bin is the bootloader or bootloader is the boot.img?

2004 Error

I got the same error at first when trying to read. My problem was caused by missing drivers. My solution was done by going to the control panel and adding legacy drivers under the "action" section.

I selected advance install, Ports(Com&LPT) and added all the MediaTek Inc drivers under model. I know all of them are not needed but to be on the safe side all of them were added. Afterwards I had to put the device in download mode through adb manually.

Was able to Root MT6582 and install PhilzTouch Recovery. Hope this helps!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] papatzis:
Hi I had tried that way but my case is due to locked bootload.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TechDad378:
I am not sure what step you may have missed since my bootloader is also locked according to the updates I applied.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TechDad378:
I suggest updating to the SPFT v.3.1352.01. That error is caused by your stock rom not being created correctly. Sounds like there was a problem with the recovery.fstab file. EMMC is the internal memory and the SPFT cannot communicate with it causing the error.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Darshan Wankhede:
I tried SPFT v5.1352.01 the latest version but still not working.

please give another solution.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bovirus:
You cannot find a solution with SP Flashtool if the problem is the ROM.

You should fix the problm in the ROM (you have to post in the thread of your device).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TechDad378:
I agree, until the ROM is fixed you will continue with the error. The ROM needs to be recreated correctly for the tool to work.

Hello, after following all the steps I get to nº six. During the readback I connect the phone and it starts working perfectly fine, but after a while it sounds like the mobile phone has been disconnected and it gives an error. I tried it twice and both times this happens at 45%... Any ideas?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TechDad378:
Do you have adb fastboot set-up? If so try this...

In ADB verify the device is recognized by typing "adb devices".

Then type "adb reboot-bootloader".

Once adb finishes type "fastboot devices"

If all goes well your device will be recognized by fastboot.

Now restart your phone to the normal boot process.

Once your device has booted up, open SPFT in another window while still keeping the adb window open.

This part is a little tricky so you have to be quick.

While both windows are side by side, run the read back in SPFT quickly switch to adb and type "adb reboot-bootloader". (It is easier if you have it type in already so all you need to do is press enter when switching windows").

If all goes well SPFT will pick up the device in bootloader mode and read it back.

The process is a little tricky and may need to be practice a few times.

Hope this helps!

It's normal that the pc detect it for 3/-4 secs.. Please read carefully the first posts.

Install teh USB preloader driver (In W7/W8 you have to do it disabling driver sign).

Then run Flashtool (you didn't say which version you used - it's important) select DOWNLOAD mode (FIRMRWARE UPGRADE if appear "PMT changed") the select DOWNLOAD and only NOW connect the phone to the pc (without battery),

If it didn't start flash leave the phone connected and insert the battery.

You cannot do anything else.

If appEar "PMT changed" it emans that preloader driver are ok you should use FIRMWARE UPGRADE and you should have full ROM.
