9. Input the values of Linear_start addr and partition_size into SP flash tool then Click on Start
Code:
Linear_start addr = Begin Address
partition_size = Format Length
10. Power off the phone (with the battery in) then connect to the PC via a USB cord. Once successful, you should get a green tick.
11. Now you can boot up the Lenovo A7700.
Disclaimer:
- Once the SP flash tool has detected your device, avoid disconnecting till the task is complete as this might cause the Lenovo A7700 to go dead.
- If you accidentally selected “Autoformat – Format all”, your device will go dead and you’ll need to flash full Lenovo A7700 stock ROM to revive the phone.
- Avoid using a random Lenovo A7700 scatter file (even though its for your chipset) in the Sp flash tool. Just because a scatter file is for your chipset doesn’t mean it contains the same partition info. Formatting with a wrong scatter file could result in more problems than you initially intended to fix.
- SP flash tool was created by MediaTek Inc. so credits to them for the tool.
