How To Use SP Flash Tool (Full Guide)

[@peterkornyoh6573]

I had a similar issue,(wrong privacy password) and this tutorial has helped me to solve it. I am so grateful. God bless you Hovatek

[@Chewiemb]

Took a few mins to get it. but it does work. once you have done everything but the downloads... pull the battery and 'then' hit download. it only will download when the battery it OUT OF THE PHONE. Worked fine for me! Thank you very much !!

[@Chewiemb]

also format without the battery in it. Obviously leave it plugged into your computer the whole time.

[@HovatekTV]

True, depending on the Sp flash tool settings and (rarely) the kind of phone, flashing will only commence when connected without the battery.

[@deonschoeman8368]

Did everything according to the video but phone doesn't want to come on now? No charge page and screen stays black? What should I do? Did not go into download and showed errors? Dooggee x5max and laptop runs Windows 8 ?

thanks alot bro, ive been searching the internet for the whole day (literally) trying to get my phone to work, your the only video that explained it in depth.

[@aoajibadeouscaaoa653]

... @ Team Hovatek... you need to show the handset during connection and disconnections ...and going into recovery/download mode/flash mode ....video volume needs to be higher... zoom in to show pc and phone fields/window shots.... the pace is A1 material, and your explanations are at very good levels...but you should include links to any suggested "google" search{es}... well done bro !

Good morning Sir. I read your post and it was very helpful. I rooted my device with Kingroot, but my phone keeps rebooting; that is, it shows only the Infinix logo and android and then it stuck there. I followed your instructions step by step but I kept getting this message from SP Flash Tool, "PMT changed for the ROM; it must be downloaded". Please how to I solve this problem. Below are the screenshots. Thanks and remain ever blessed.

[@HarryAGeorgiou]

I am not sure if you can help, I flashed and formatted my phone to remove the viruses that I managed to unfortunatelly download from an open wifi. I eventually flashed my phone not knowing what I was doing and bricked my phone. But when the flash is successful I ended up with a phone which I downloaded the stock rom and then the touch screen is working in a bizarre way. If I want to press a button in the middle I need to touch the top. What has gone wrong? I have a THL 5000, I am going to try other roms maybe they will be better. but the stock rom from thl mobile did not seem to work properly, which is strange. Any tips?
