I did everything that was stated in the how to's but to no avail. additionally i cant get TWRP installed via fatboot, i have checked and crosschecked usb debugging and unlock OEM , but i cant get it to work , with SP Flash my phone pops up and vanishes in the hardware manager withing fractions of a second so it doesnt work with the sp Flash , in fastboot it wont let me download to recovery even if i use the command line oem unlock , because the volume up button that you have to use to accept[yes] doesnt work , only the vol down[no ] button has an effect, anyone any ideas anyone?

To use SP Flash tools, turn the phone off, press download on the software then plug the phone in. The preloader is only meant to show for a short time (a fraction of a second to a few seconds) so SPFT needs to be sending the signal to download in that time window.
What I've also found works is to press download on SPFT then press and hold power and volume up until the device starts downloading.
thx for the quick answer i will try a.s.a.p.

That could be a couple of things:
Which SPFT version are you using? If its an older version try using a newer one.
Or
The scatter file you loaded is not good, download a stock firmware and use the scatter file from that.
Try this:
fastboot flash recovery "filename".img
or
fastboot flash boot "filename".img
Do you have the MTK drivers installed? What does your phone appear as in the Device Manager? Like others have said, once you've chosen your scatter file and recovery to flash, hit download and then plug in the phone.
Managed to fix this? I have the exact same problem and not able to fix it till now....
I'm in a similar situation. I CAN get my phone to flash recovery in SPFT and get a lovely big green tick but when I power off and boot into recovery using power and volume up it boots into the stock android recovery rather than TWRP.
Going another way via ADB, I can get the phone detected but when I send the OEM unlock bootloader command I am unable to use volume up to confirm. Only the volume down key works to cancel.
All I want is to put viper4android on. Never had any issues until this phone.

Are you 100% sure the recovery.img you flashed was TWRP?
Absolutely. Downloaded from this very site. It was this one: recovery_TWRP_3021_P9000.img
---------- Post added at 02:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 PM ----------
Did an OTA update this morning and am showing as on build number Elephone_P9000_20160608 now. Haven't tried flashing since the update as I'm at work with locked down computers. Was going to try again over the weekend. Which recovery and version of flash tools would you recommend trying this time?
thanks for any advice.
Actually I have the same problem.
I tried to reinstall the drivers because it seems to be not the correct one. Here is a pic: i.imgur.com/FoUnVyz.png
After I read somewhere that i can try and hold down Volume+ while connecting my phone to the pc where i started the download in sp tools prior.
I got this error code: STATUS_PRELOADER_INVALID(0xC0030004)
And here I am with a not-up-to-date elephone p9000.
Anybody care to help me?
I'm in the same situation, tried everything - flashtool recovery.img separate in download mode, flashtool in update mode full 7.0 with replaced original recovery.img with TWRP one, played with fastboot with no luck as did not find the way to OEM UNLOCK it - vol + not reacting. Bought the phone on Gearbest, looks like it's locked very hard.
Can't install TWRP
Me too! I've updated my p9000 to latest stock v7 rom with spft. I can't install twrp recovery despite getting a geen tick from spft. Tried four times but it won't overwrite the stock rom recovery. A locked bootloader seems to be the popular diagnosis but spft doesn't use the bootloader. What else could it be? Ideas very welcome.
Did you boot into recovery immediately after flashing? A normal system boot will overwrite TWRP with the stock recovery. Once you start TWRP there is an option to prevent this from happening.
Can't install TWRP
Thanks for the suggestion. I flashed twrp again but it won't boot into recovery afterwards without a restart, just hangs. Stiĺl on stock recovery.

Ok, tell me to can help you;
Do you have TWRP installed?
Do you unlock bootloader succesfully?
In which modes you can enter? fastboot, recovery, download (do detects SPFlash Tool?)

Thank you SubwayChamp for help.
No , TWRP is not installed now .
Yes, I think bootloader has been unlocked. It is done with Orange status.
I think it is in download mode. it detects SPFlash.

Ok, I guess that your device is actually in bootloop and don´t booting.
Tutorial that you followed has many steps and don´t need to do all this to just root device and it contains some files like lk.bin that you can´t be sure that should be for your device.
Some users use this file (lk.bin) of an unlocked device and think that flashng in other device then get unlock it but no need, your device can be unlock it just follow some commands in fastboot mode.
Now you can do the next;
Try to flash again your rom stock (I guess that you don´t have a backup), if for some reason your official tool doesn´t work then use only some images like boot, system and userdata with the scatter.txt to flash them through SP Flash Tool.
Here a link to TWRP https://youtu.be/6vj_BY6xJdA, you can root it with supersu v2.78 0r v2.82 and here some files that can be usefull too https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0BwJgeCYTpnEHNlg2VUlieHFTYVU&export=download
Update steps that you are following to can assist. What extension has your rom and if it is recogniced for SP Flash Tool. I didn´t ask you if you can enter to fastboot mode and if you can then you can know if your bootloader is unlocked typing fastboot oem info
Most info that you give and some screenie will help to understand better
Unfortunatly, it can not enter to fastboot or recovery mode. Those files in replay didn't work and i dont have a backup. I try to flash recovery.img, system.img and preloader_shine_plus.bin . All done but it still black screen and does not boot. But now it connect to Pc without disconect .
I cant add link or images to my post.

Gmail didn´t warn myself about your post. Did you solve it?
You said that flashed recovery, system and preloader but how, through SPFlashTool?, if yes, are you sure that this tool recogniced your device?
You forgot to flash boot.img too.
Other way to try; flash only preloader.bin and then try flashing boot, system and userdata that are the three most important partitions to can boot.
Like last resort you can do a Format all + flash but only like last.

I´m not sure if you are connecting correctly your device at right time and form to can flash it properly. Every device has more or less a specific way to do it. My last alcatel it was connected just with device power off and after to tap on download, but in other device Blu Dash was connected pressing just vol_up and my last mt6757 Bluboo had to press both vol up and down at time to connect to pc and after to tap on download option. To have sure that is well done increase volume in your pc, you will hear a first sound that is cause pc is recognicing but then you have to hear a second sound that is when SPFlashTool is recognicing device and you will see a red line in down side of the tool window, release button inmediately and let tool to work.
This is a good rom for your device according the author is optimized https://droid1311.blogspot.com/2017/08/alcatel-fl02-aka-flash-plus-2-via.html and this is the link directly if you have troubles with pop-up-adds https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwAGh1drb91SeDZwV1VXbXpjQWM/view
Also you can try with other versions of SP Flash Tool, most stable maybe should be v5,1628 https://androidmtk.com/smart-phone-flash-tool leth me know how you go
If I understant, the status bar has to be red then I will release the mobile button and click download in SPFlashTool.
SPFlashTool 5.1628:
I try all the way with and without pressing any button but no luck . And when it work finishing with error.
SPFlashTool 5.1628:
I try all the way to get that mode but nothing works. So I try to click download button then conect the phone by random buttons and every time i get red color , yellow , green ,purple , yellow (for many times 100%)
then i get this error:
ERR: STATUS-SEC-IMG-TYPE-MISMATCH (0xC002002A)

There is a part that is not variable in the way to use this tool, ever you have to tap on download before to connect device and is recommendable too connect cable usb to pc (not yet to device); from here is when the button that you have to press can vary but like I said you before in my last mt6757 (a very similar to yours) works pressing both vol at same time to connect terminal cable to device and now you will see a red line (could be violet-ish)
Try before just flashing only preloader file to recreate some partitions and then do other flash for the other files.
Of course you have to be sure that all drivers are installed correctly cause this tool needs to put your device in download mode (a special level) and also keep it in this state so find VCOM drivers for Alcatel and adb/fastboot installer and try to uninstalling some older drivers that you don´t use and many times we keep in our pcs and for a short data transmission can helo that all the rom move it in same folder where SPFlashTool is allocated.
After updating drivers and trying all the possibilities buttons the red line doesnt appear.

Ok, here there are somethings that we need to know
- First of all don´t forget to charge your battery, after many attempts could consume a lot.
- Your device is recogniced in fastboot mode? mtk has two variables ways to enter to, pressing both vol + pwr till an options menu appear, then you have to select, and the other method most known is vol down+ pwr to go diirectly
- In what android version are you, 6.0?
- What is the exact variant of your device, you can know maybe seeing in the box, this rom is for 5095K version 6.0 MM
- Did you try to flash just preloader, only this file?
If SPFlashTool don´t give signals of recognicing device is probably that your device is not now totally power off, try pressing pwr by 7 seconds, then try to flash again combining both vol with pwr button
Upload some screenshot about the process

Which option mode should appear? Screen is always black (off) all that i have on the phone is the LED.
I try more than 4 different drivers for Alcatel Flash Plus 2 (vcom & cdc) but no sound from SPFlash to prove that it recognise the phone. Sounds just release and keep relrease from Windows 10.

You need to try two different ways to flash files and restore your device.
First method: fastboot mode
You need to get device enter to fastboot in order to flash some files like system, boot and userdata, then there are two main methods to do it:
- Pressing pwr + vol down
- And I mentioned that sometimes work pressing both volume button + pwr and a menu have to appear to can select an option to enter to (fastboot mode), in some devices this method is not working but you have to try several times attempting to.
Second method: SPFlashTool
You have to ever press first of all Download box and connect terminal cable to pc and the buttons thhat you need to press at time to connec cable usb to your device may vary, sometimes vol down, sometimes both vol but never pwr button; if pc recognice then you have to release all buttone an let it pc continue the flash process.
If SPFlashTool recognice device first flash only preloader file and select now lk.bin too. Flash only these two files and after do again a new flash with the rest of the files, Why you need to do this? your partitions are corrupted and you need to restore them with these files in order to can flash all another files.
Before all of this charge your battery, if you have a cover removable then extract it some minutes and put it again.
Also I read that for this model it´s used this tool instead of SPFlash Tool https://androidmtk.com/download-sugar-mtk-sp-flash-tool (inside the zip you will find a password to start the tool) but I´m not sure what kind of rom it needs, you have to connect your device to begin the process, you will find in product models section in the tool this variant for your device "FL02"
Try first the other tool and then this and let me know how you go, mtk devices are almost unbrickeable so it´s just to find the appropriate way to return it to the life.
Hi again!
It was along time,I know . But I tried to know why I can’t return my phone back to life.
I have searched all possible websites for rom of this model and I have formatted my pc and installed win7 with all necessary drivers.
I can’t found any rom for it but now I can flash all the necessary files for boot they flashing and running smoothly but the mobile can’t boot up.
I try to use that app in your replay. It recognizes the device but stuck after that and keep looking for rom without any chance to download it.
I think I have a wrong rom files. I can’t find any other reason but this.
I will write again all information about my phone:
It is called Alcatel Flash Plus 2
I bought it from AliExpress and it came from Indonesia as I remember (not sure)

Yes, so many time
When device is booting, it stays in bootlogo or goes atleast to bootanimation?
I understand that you tried with Sugar tool with no lucky.
Did you try again through SP Flash tool? trying to flash in a first attempt only preloader file and in a second attempt the other files? (try with 2 or 3 versions and see the differences).
Is there some custom development, recovery, roms for your device?
I think that now you are flashing correct rom through fastboot but like you did before bad/wrong flashings your bootloader is refusing to boot to system. Flash through fastboot all the partitions that you can follow the syntax for every one of them by i.e. typing fastboot flash cache cache.img and so on one by one (some of them are unflashable through this method)

I´ll tell you some ideas with no any specific order that you can try or see if works.
Really very strange that display stays in black, you told me that flashing files through fastboot is working but doesn´t appear not even bootlogo, connect to pc as it is and see how pc recognices in devices manager and my pc if appears like a determined drive d/e/f so it looks that some bad flashing burn your kernel and this case is similar to when a Samsung device need to use jtag method to revive, if in your country no-one knows about Alcatel devices this could be a similar case to what I´m saying then it could be a clue for a technician. I tell you this cause many time ago when I flashed by error a Samsung s4 and only this method revived my device.
Try this, flash your stock recovery only through SPFlash tool and flash after through Alcatel Download tool your stock rom cause some firmwares need to detect stock recovery first to can flash other partitions.
At this stage don´t you have stock recovery, no? so you can try to format data cause sometimes when bootloader is altered then avoid to boot and formatting data can solve this.
If this recovery twrp is for your device you can try flashing through SPFlash tool, you have to put recovery.img and scatter-txt in a same folder. then if succesfull format data, system, wipe cache and dalvik and maybe later try to port some custom rom would be a way to solve this.
To flash any partition through fastboot this is the syntax, just follow one by one any of the files that are in your rom folder so just follow these, if some of then can´t be flashed don´t worry then it´s not flashable:
fastboot flash boot bot.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash lk lk.bin
and so on till the end
...But after try this if you didn´t get boot to recovery and obviously you can´t delete data nor system then delete first the next partitions trough fastboot typing:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
Try all this and let us see how it goes
I have flashed TWRP Rom but it is same , no luck.
On sugar tool I got this message after success flashing via SPFLASH tool.
I tried all possible buttons to connect device to PC on Fastboot mode but the PC cannot send data to my device.
To be in Fastboot mode , the device has to boot while pressing on (PWR & VOL+) but my device can’t boot.

I see that Sugar tool detects your device like rooted and refuses to flash anything, compare imei number which is in the box, I hope that it couldn´t be changed.
Don´t tell me simply no luck, what it says in SPFlash tool when you tried to flash TWRP and I guess that you put scatter-txt and twrp renamed recovery.img simply in the same folder. Just to be clear, to can flash with this tool your device it has to be off not needed fastboot for this. (provide some screenie)
Other combination of keys to enter to fastboot to flash some partitions when something is missing is, try these three ways:
- Pressing only vol down and at same time connecting to charger (connect first one terminal of cable to your device and then to the charger)
- Pressing the three buttons till a menu appears (you must to release inmediately all)
- Pressing vol up + pwr till a menu appears (you must to release pwr button inmediately) then choose fastboot
In the post 4 I provided a link from Google Drive, in this zip there are 8 items;
- From the item 2 use this version of SP Flash tool, put the four files in a folder and flash them
- In the item 3 you will find some scripts for fastboot, maybe they´re working better and also you have here a subfolder with twrp image.
- And if you get sucessfully install twrp in the item 7 there is a backup with some files to restore from this recovery.
Try one by one and update the info, I hope that your motherboard is not damaged.
Hi, offering $10 PayPal to anyone that helps me fix my phone. (Don't know if this is against the rules, if so, I take it back).
Here's the situation:
Was on stock MIUI Global 9.5.8.0 with RedWolf Recovery.
Did a backup and flashed LineageOS
Wasnt happy with it and flashed back the backup, including the Firmware and EFS partitions, basically every partition
Bootloop, WiFi and BT driver prolly messed up, cant connect and restarts upon trying to connect to WIFI/BT.
Tried flashing other firmware, various combinations of wipes, flashes, MiFlashTool fastboot rom, nothing helped.
Tried flashing with EDL, the newest ROM gives me "Too many lines in XML file", old ROM flashed fine, but then couldn't even get to fastboot.
Now: Can't get to fastboot nor recovery, phone goes to EDL mode w/ red LED blinking when connected to PC.
QFIL gives me "Cannot read packet header, read 0 bytes", same with MiFlash.
What are my options guys? Is this a dead case? Any help is greatly appreciated.
ok hear me out, I'm a newbie, and I missed up, plz help
I was trying to root my device following this tutorial, I flashed twrp and vbmeta and every thing went alright without errors, I booted the phone into recovery to continue as how the tutorial said, but it gave me the orange state error and it restarted into system but now the device is factory reset, I enabled usb debugging and went on to follow this tutorial, every thing went same as before and I couldn't boot into recovery, so I decided to flash the "orange_state_disabler_MTK Only.zip" with adb and every thing went downhill from there, It won't boot to recovery, bootloader nor system, It just stays at a blank screen after the logo and the orange state message, It is recognized by adb as "recovery" and I can do adb commands but I can't boot to bootloader to flash the stock firmware, I found this thread and tried using the tool mentioned there, Faced an error, solved it and the phone still won't boot to any thing.
so, is there any way I can get out of this situation ?
TLDR / what you should know/ idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- did something wasn't supposed to do
- can't boot to recovery
- can't boot to bootloader
- device recognized by adb but can't do fastboot commands
- device is recognized by MTKAuthBypassToolV25
- can't shutdown nor restart using phone physical buttons
- don't know if the below screenshots would help with any thing, but here goes nothing
You have misunderstanding, Orange State does not cause anything. That is just notification that bootloader is unlocked, nothing more. Therefore the Orange State Disabler cannot fix anything. You don't need this at all.
But it seems it destroyed fastboot. flash lk from SP Flash Tool

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
please explain, I don't know what IK is, and if I could flash things with SP flash tools, wouldn't I be able to flash stock firmware?
lk - little kernel. that is the partition where fastboot lives (and was modified by Orange State Disabler).
you need partition image from stock ROM and any flash tool to restore its original state.
i can't do that because i can't boot to bootloader
you don't need bootloader, only preloader or bootrom
ok turns out ima an idiot and misunderstood the entire situation , this is my first dealing with an mtk device so i thought sp flash tool is like odin and you need to be in download mode to flash things so i panicked, and didn't read well how to use the tool.
flashed stock firmware and the phone is up and running again
thanks for your help man really appreciate it and sorry for wasting your time
