Important Notice

• Once SP Multiport Download tool has detected your device, avoid disconnecting till the task is complete as this might cause the phone to go dead
• If you accidentally interrupted flashing and the phone went dead, follow this guide to revive the phone
• SP Multiport Download tool requires a scatter file but not an internet connection. Scatter files are usually named something like MTxxxx_Android_scatter and are basically maps which contain addresses to which each file in your firmware should be flashed to.
• Do not mistake scatter file for firmware/stock ROM / flash file. A firmware contains several files, scatter file is just one of them so do not format when you have only  a scatter file
• Depending on the option you select in SP flash tool, you can flash with the battery inside the phone or removed (if removable). The default flash setting is with battery inside
• SP Multiport Download tool is for flashing only scatter format firmware. It will not flash an OTA update.zip (even though that contains a scatter file) or a custom rom in flashable zip format.
• Using a Miracle Box scatter file in SP flash tool might give an error. If your scatter file is from Miracle Box then use Miracle Box to flash. Scatter files made from other tools like Infinity Chinese Miracle 2, Wwr_MTK and NCK Pro box work fine
• If you can, backup your firmware before flashing with SP Multiport Download tool. While trying to flash an incompatible firmware should give you an error, you might be unlucky enough to successfully flash the firmware for the wrong variant, resulting in a bricked phone
• Avoid using a random scatter file (even though its for your chipset). Just because a scatter file is for your chipset doesn’t mean it contains the same partition info. Force-flashing with a wrong scatter file could result in an overlap error or corrupted partition table.
• If you do not wish to generate a Checksum file as requested by the tool then disable checksum under Option > DA Checksum > Disable Checksum
