It's easy to fix Just follow my steps. :fingers-crossed:
1.Prepare the rom which was running ok before,for example, for me it was @satanduck 's prerooted TWRP S124 rom.
2.Open the SP flash tool.
3.Load the scatter file from the rom which worked ok for you.
4.Tick the box that says 'DA DL All With Check Sum'
5.Hit Firmware Upgrade
Now is the hardest step
1.Open the cover of your phone.
2.Look for the red reset button which was close to SD card and press it a few times.
3.Connect USB cable to your phone and firmware upgrade should start and wait for the green circle! :good::laugh:
Best luck :good:

What have you done to your phone? Did you install or flash something? Did you change something in system ?

Yes, I installed mtk usb drivers. but I´m not sure if it´s ok o no. Because I have to connect the battery and push volume+up button to make it connected. and it´ll disappear immediately in device management window.

Hi,
Please verify that you have a correct production date. I got a P780 after 0314. please try the solution on this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52665841&postcount=16
If this resolves your problem, that keep that preloader. With that you can almost flash every rom that there is with the flashtool.
(i'm very satisfied with the latest rom on needrom Vibeui2.0 (the rom page also offers the new preloader )
Greetz,
btw to try to flash with the new preloader set up the flashtool, push the red button on the back of your phone, connect the phone an release the button. If all the drivers are correct your phone will be flashed. ( this new batch phones gave me a heart attack also , mine wasn't even 12 hours active before i softbricked it )

When I push the red button, phone can not be recognized by computer. Only I press the volume-up button, it can be recognized by computer.
I start the flash, then push volume-up button to make it connected, but then got BROM error. I attach the screen picture.

You must have this FlashTool - SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1304.0.119. Not Optional.
Check if your phone is produced in 2014. If it is you must use another preloader.

I thought you have warranty on your phone !
So... this error appear when you try to flash wrong ROM or you have wrong drivers installed. Try to remove drivers you have installed and try to reinstall another driver.
Orrrr.. your phone could be a clone. Just an ideea ...
Could you tell us more about your phone... maybe pictures taken from battery or box who came with ?
Hello,
I flashed a ROM with sp-tool but the phone does not open. I power it on but nothing happens, no vibration, no screen flashing nothing.
Now I try to reflash the stock ROM but:
If I connect it it to PC it is recognized as MTK USB Port instead of MediaTek Preloader USB VCOM and SPTools returns DRAM failed error.
I tried removing the battery and connecting it, pressing VOL+ etc but the same happens.
I read this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943442 but I could not do something. I found in the guide a link in a Russian forum where they talked about flashing the preloader using the board's PINs, but the translate does not give me quality information on how to do this
Any ideas?
Thank you

Hi. What you did is to brick your preloader. It seems to me that your phone is made after 03.2014.
What you have to do is:
1. reinstall the driver. Follow the tutorial from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/help/lenovo-p780-mt6589-device-hard-bricked-t2890675
2. download the good preloader from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/len...cked-flashing-wrong-rom-doesnt-t2749683/page4
3. replace the preloader from your downloaded ROM with the one from step 2.
4. Start SP FLASH TOOL and load scatter file
5. Check DA/DL WITH CHECKSUM
6. Flash it normaly now.
7. Good Luck
8. Waiting for feedback....
The same.
The phone is recognized as MTK USB Port and the SP-flash returns DRAM failed

Merimobiles told me that this was the original rom
www.needrom.com/download/lenovo-p780-2
I tried varirous versions of SP Flash Tool
I think that the only option is to hard-flash it using the pins from the board

4. Select only the preloader.
5. Under the big Download button select firmware upgrade

A while ago I made a post about how I hardbricked my Wiko Lenny, and I finally decided to try the testpoint method. The problem is that I have absolutely no idea as to where that testpoint is on the PCB.
Can someone guide me? I attached some pictures with the PCB.
Okay, I found the testpoint. It's noted as KCOL0, and it's under the PCB, near the volume up button. I connected GND with KCOL0, but the phone is rapidly switching on and off. I can't flash it in this state.
After a few minutes of constant switching on and off, the phone decided to calm down and let the PC detect it.
In Device Manager it appears as "USB Serial Device (COM6)", and SP Flash Tools v5 detects it easily. But it can't flash it. It always spits out this: "S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL" and stops.
Any ideas?
Come on, guys... Someone here must have at least a bit of experience with Mediatek phones...
Please tell me your status for now, also tell me how you got into this ??
I mean how you made a brick??
My phone has the habit of simply going into a bootloop once every few months. I always repair it by reflashing the ROM in SP Flash Tool, but last time I used a tool supplied by Wiko. Apparently the tool reflashed the entire phone instead of the Android partition, and managed to corrupt the preloader. As a result, the phone didn't turn on, vibrate, or even get recognized by the PC.
A while ago I made a post about this, but nobody wanted to help me. I researched the internet and found out that the phone can be repaired by META mode, by JTAG or by testpoint. META mode isn't available on MT6572 devices, so that didn't work. JTAG seems too complicated for me, so the last option was shortcircuiting the KCOL0 testpoint.
I opened up the phone's back, took the PCB out and soldered a copper wire that connected the groundpoint(GND) with the testpoint(KCOL0). After connecting it to the computer, the phone started turning off and on rapidly for around 10 minutes, then decided to stop, letting it be recognized by the PC. It appeared as "USB Serial Device", but it should be called "Mediatek MTK PRELOADER" or something similar. I thought it was the PC, so I continued.
Started SPFT, loaded a scatter that I backed up from the last flash, then clicked Download. After 30 seconds it stops and writes this: "BROM ERROR: S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032)". Tried resoldering and reflashing, but same result.
Any ideas?

Error 4032
Message: BROM ERROR : S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032) [EMI] Enable DRAM fail
Meaning: The firmware you're trying to flash is either not compatible with your device or you have selected the wrong flashing settings
Solution:
* Ensure that the file(s) you're trying to flash are actually for your exact phone model
* Ensure you tick the boxes for only the files present in the ROM you're about to flash
* Probably have the wrong driver installed. Uninstall vcom, preloader and MTK drivers using usb deview then manually re-install using forum.hovatek.com/thread-440.html
* Delete the sp flash tool folder then re-extract
* Ensure the phone is switched off (with battery still inside) before connecting to PC for flashing.
* If that doesn't work, keep holding down the volume decrease button just before connecting the phone to PC for flashing (you could try volume increase , power + volume decrease or power + volume increase).
* Consider using the latest version of Sp Flash tool
* Format the phone before trying to flash the file(s) again

Sorry for my English.
I have one with the same "dead".
Make short between Kcolo point and GND.
Be sure battery is full.
Use V20 firmware.
Select firmware up-grade from Smart Phone Flash Tools.
Connect phone to PC with Volume + push
Don't forget to remove the jumper after flash

I still didn't manage to repair it, as I may have made a mistake while soldering and shortcircuited the phone.
I may try again, though.
I have the same issue but my Wiko Lenny 3 is dead for a while (like 2-4 years). Until this time, I was trying to repair my device, but no luck occurred. But I can't find the KCOLO point, as I should. It is either on the main board / motherboard (I don't know how to call it) or under it. I'm of a smartphone repair noob...
I hope that I can finally manage to repair this device because I don't know what I should do with this device.
And added the image to see if you guys can find the KCOLO / KOLO / COLO point...
