Should the P9000 be turned-off when flashing? - Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers

Hi guys! I need some help, I have a P9000 for a year now and I have been using the CyanogenMod ROM, Android 6.0.1 for the past 6 months already.
I would like to go revert back to the original Elephone P9000 loader and ROM.
I have already downloaded the necessary files such as the SP Flash Tool, driver and the Android 7.0 ROM. I would like to know if I have to turn-off the device and then run the SP Flash Tool then plug the still turned-off device? I forgot how I did the two previous flashing I did before if the phone is turned-off or if it is in the boot loader screen.
Thank you in advance for your reply.

Turn off the phone, start update in sp flashtools and connect the phone with USB to the PC. When a green check mark appers on your PC screen, the flashing process is done and you can disconnect your phone and turn it on.

[Q] Bricked (Cant boot, turn on the screen)

Hey guys,
So I wanted to try out the newest CM12 ROM with A5.0 but seems like it didnt exactly happen how I wanted it. Rooting the device and then installing the XZDualRecovery without a problem. Then downloaded the ROM and gapps.
I have SGP311 (pollux_windy) so I downloaded that version of the CM12 at first. It said that my device is pollux, which I ofc was dumb enough to just skip and download the pollux ver and then install that one. So I installed the pollux ver instead of pollux_windy and when I hit restart device I didnt see it boot again.
So I wanted to connect it to my PC, PC didnt recognize it ofc. Only way my PC regonizes my tab is by fastboot mode. I had to install a driver for that. And even then only the Sony Mobile Flasher by Androxyde recognised it. I run into bootloop various times before with my tab and Emma always fixed it but thats unfortunately not the case here as Emma doesnt recognise it either :/
So now here's the problem, I can only do fastboot mode (not flashmode) and the only program able to do sth with my device is this Sony Mobile Flasher. I downloaded a official FW there and wanted to install it but it required me to go into the flashmode which I can't.
Is there sth I can do? The only thing working is the LED and fastboot mode.
Is there a way to put the device into flashmode via PC, that would solve all issues or maybe a trick to go into flashmode? As there was some thread about it but the thing they did didnt work for me :/
Please help
Thanks in advance
Nevermind, I just forgot how to use Emma....
For anyone to whom this happens:
Computer: Open Emma from the Start menu of your computer.
Connect a USB cable to your computer.
Phone: Turn off your tab.
Connect your tab to the USB cable while holding the VOLUME DOWN.
Computer: Select the software you want to flash in the Service list. The tool automatically detects the tab and lists available software versions, which are called Services in this flash tool.
Click on Apply Service. The tab will now be flashed.
Phone: When you have flashed your device, you can disconnect your phone from the computer. The first time you start your device after you have flashed it, the boot-up might take a little longer than normal.

Did you try twrp sideload adb push ?
yes, i tried adb sideload but say a thing like: protocol fault (no status)
Here is some thing that worked for me, even i could not get into Flash Mode.
turn off your phone
run flash tool, select the firmware you want to flash and click flash, wait for the tool ask you to connect the phone.
Now connect the USB cable to the phone with the Volume down pressed and do not let go of the volume down button until the flash process is done.
if the phone is still not detected, do the same but change the USB port.
it happens to me that if i let go of the Volume down button, the phone disconnect from flash mode.
if you are able to boot to home screen then it best to boot to fastboot using the option in Flash tool and then disconnect the USB cable, and then start the Flash process

Homtom HT3 stuck on boot logo

Hi guys, I recently purchased a Homtom HT3 for my mother, when it arrived to me I charged it and checked it out a bit just to make sure everything was fine which it was.
She collected it from me the next day and told me she'd start to use it the day after, she calls me up the next day and tells me there's some problems with it and a few people at her workplace tried to fix it for her to no avail. I pick the phone back up and I notice that everytime I power it on, it gets stuck on the "homtom" logo.
As I don't know too much about fixing phones I only took the following steps before asking for advice here; I went into recovery mode by holding up volume and power button, the android guy with the red triangle appeared so I tapped up + power button to get into the recovery(?) menu. I wiped the phone to factory settings and deleted the cache in there but it hasn't fixed the problem.
I assume I need to flash a firmware or something to potentially fix this, but I'm unable to find an official firmware from doogee/homtom's site for the HT3. I've found a firmware that I downloaded from "chinagadgetsreviews" but I'm a bit weary to try and flash with that rom because it isn't from the manufacturer. (even if I knew how to - the only experience I have is rooting my own phone but that's when I actually had access to a working phone, not one thats stuck on a boot logo).
Sorry for the long post but could anyone guide me in the right direction here? TIA
I'm not opposed to not using official firmware, I think I use cyanogen mod(?) on my own phone. I'd just like the problem fixed in the easiest way possible.
Trying to fix it myself by flashing a rom via SP flash tools but I've ran into another problem which is stopping any kind of progress - the phone isn't detected in Windows, I can't enable usb debugging because I can't get passed the boot loop, I've tried installing the ADB driver manually which didn't seem to work (just said it didn't install correctly and left me with a yellow exclamation mark) and I tried to install it automatically via ADB driver installer but it just throws up an error that the device isn't detected.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

SP Flash Tool works through preloader. Usually when you power up your phone, preloader kicks in first and sets up it's own device on USB port. You have a split second to start talking to it, otherwise it will load the next part of software, which will set up another device on the port.
What do you have to do:
Double-check your USB cable! Cable problems can lead to weird errors in SPF tool.
Shut down your phone completely, remove/insert the battery after it to be 100% sure that the phone is shut down.
Set up SPF Tool, hit download button
Connect your phone to PC via USB cable
At this step, your phone should power up, but if it doesn't in reasonable time (say, 10 seconds), press the power button to switch it on
If everything done right, the following happens:
Your PC finds "mediatek preloader" device or something similar
Red progress bar starts running in SPF tool, it means DL helper firmware is being transferred to the phone
Blue (or green) progress bar starts running, indicating your data being downloaded
A window with green circle appears, your data has been uploaded successfully

Dead boot cm flare 4 after flashing help!

FLASHED 2.DUMP_ROM [SPFT][ROOTED] FROM All About CherryMobile Flare 4 AFTER IT SAYS FLASHING IS DONE 100% WITH CHECK MARK THEN MY PHONE DIDNT RESTART I WAITED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES TO SEE IF THERE'S SOMETHING MIGHT HAPPEN BUT NOTHING ONLY BLACK..
SO I PULLED THE USB CONNECTOR, THEN PLUG IT BACK. THE ONLY THING THAT I SAW IS UNRECOGNIZED USB. NO CHARGING LOGO OR ANDROID OR ANYTHING EVEN THE LED INDICATION OF CHARGING IS NOT BLINKING.
I HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP ME :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

I also had the same problem and I also cried. Your phone have MediaTek MT6753 Chipset. I have MT6582. You flashed ROM via recovery and looks like ROM have conflict with bootloader.
SP Flash Tool can flash shutdown MTK devices via USB. Your computer show "UNRECOGNIZED USB". SP Flash Tool need special ROM and driver to find your phone. Not sure, that SP Flash Tool can help you, but it helped me.
How I decided problem:
I waited some time (I went sleep, it was night)
Found stock ROM for Flashtool. This ROM contain all data for device and have more size.
Install driver for my phone.
Pulled out battery.
Connect with computer via USB.
Put in battery and computer detected phone as "MediatekDevice". SP Flash tool also detected phone
Started flashing.
Good luck!
