Can I safely flash new firmware on my nokia g11 Plus using "SP Flash Tool"?
They say that the program is for flashing devices based on the mediatek processor, but from what I know the nokia g11 plus has a Unisoc T606 processor?
Is there any other software to upload firmware to this phone model?
I want to flash Stock ROM

Thanx for answer, so i already have the program.
I have searched for several hours for software but all of them are just in .Bin format :c and the program requires a firmware in .Pac format
Strange because I downloaded the firmware from the given link.
Payload.Bin could be installed via recovery but on nokia g11 plus it is so poor it only has three useless options like reboot or turn of device :v
the file you have is not full firmware (because of the small file size) it's more likely just incremental OTA update file.
you can however have a look inside with payload dumper.

Yeah right, it is OTA, If I don't find StockRom, I won't fix this brick, soo annoying cuz there is no .Spd firmware to flash in internet.
I even searched on Chinese forums, such a charm of these phones?
can only find 1.8gb OTA update.zip flashable for recovery mode.
maybe ask nokia support. or contact this guy (see unbrick EDL Package)

Hello,
I've been recently trying to root my Asus Zenfone 3 Max (ZC520TL) using SP Flash tool,
however, I haven't found the correct scatter file for my device. Does anyone know where
I could find a MT6737 scatter file? Thanks in advance!
Hi. From my experience, correct scatter files that work (not just any random scatter file) reside in a ROM/Firmware zip.
Doing a little searching, I found that you can download stock firmware for you device from Asus officially. They offer them in the support section.
Here is the link: https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Max-ZC520TL/HelpDesk_Download/
Should you download the official firmware specific to your device and unzip the file, (in all probability) you will also find the correct scatter file which you are looking for (something like xxxxx_scatter_file.txt).
(also keeping in place a stock rom is never but never a bad idea )
However... You mentioned that you need the scatter file to root??? I have not any idea as to why you would need SP Flash tool for any other reason than flashing stock.
Unless you are flashing full custom rom which cannot be flashed through recovery perhaps?
Anyway... Good luck!!!
Thanks for the quick response!

I needed the Flash tool because I was trying to flash TWRP, and from there install superuser. I did as you said, but when I tried loading the scatter file
the program recognized it as invalid. A huge thanks for the help though!!!

Ok... No worries!! We will probably figure it out in the end.
By the way, I am not sure I understand exactly how you were going to use SP Flashtool to flash TWRP. From my experience it does not work that way. You need platform tools (adb and fastboot).
platform tools here ----> https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html
It is with these that you will unlock bootlader, and after bootloader is unlocked, first flash supersu, install busybox and lastly flash twrp.
Please look at my how-to root and twrp section. It is not for your device, but it will give you a good idea of the process: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/lenovo-tab-3-8-tb3-850f-unbrick-root-t3598727

Hi!
Today I downloaded a firmware(DL09C100B018CUSTC100D001) for my tablet. It is in UPDATE.APP format, not writable images.
How can I install/flash the UPDATE.APP file (the firmware) with my PC? Which software can I use?
For my Alcatel tablet, I use SP Flash Tool, but I did not find such software for Huawei tablets that use UPDATE.APP format.
I found one way, and that is to extract the images in the UPDATE.APP file using https://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/tool-python-2-3-splituapp-update-app-t3711929. Then use fastboot to flash them. I haven't tested this method yet because I haven't unlocked the bootloader yet.
Is there another option, or is this the only one?
Thanks!
Device: Huawei MediaPad T2 7.0 (BGO-DL09)

Thread closed at the request of the OP.
Does anyone know where to get the stock boot.img? I have artic & travis' custom kernel flashed and, long story short, I need to flash back to stock for now. I have a MetroPCS model btw.
use payload dumper and extract boot.img from latest firmware downloaded from oneplus website

That's OEM and will prevent me from updating OTA
You can factory reset and then use the GSI method to get a copy of stock boot.img, I don't know if anyone has done this before for MetroPCS
I have most of the previous Tmobile boot.img available at this archive, I don't know if it works for MetroPCS: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=329532
T-Mobile and MetroPCS are using a unified image and will customize for the proper providers tools and boot logo based in sim inserted during initial setup.
The boot.img is the same for both.
Hi!,
I am trying to root my phone, I already unlocked fastboot and loaded TWRP. The main problem is that I try to extract with Python the boot.img from the firmware .ozip but I can't find the OZIP file, I just downloaded from realme page and some sites a firmware version with the .zip extension...
I tried to change it's extension to .ozip and then extract but there is no boot.img in the extracted file so I am a little bit lost right now.
On the other hand when I enter TWRP the touchscreen doesn't works and the phone always go to recovery when rebooted or fastboot when I press the - volume button.
What should I do..?
i dont know your version so im not sure which solution is better for you
if you wanna just make boot.img use just download your ROM from here and use payload dumper go from this post
if you wanna root directly this post will help you (just update the command from 24.3 to 25.2)

Thank you very much, the payload dumper go tool worked fine and could flash the boot.img!
I can't find any information about this anywhere. There is only this post which gives instructions for the M10 Plus model, while specifying that they won't work for the basic M10.
I got the firmware both via Lenovo Rescue and Smart Assistant, and also via the Lenovo lolinet images site, but the firmware is just a .pac file, and does not contain a boot.img. Using the SPD Flash Tool, I extracted all the .img files from the .pac firmware file, but there is no boot.img. Magisk is unable to patch any of the img files that do exist within the firmware. Additionally there is no payload.bin to work with in the firmware.
There is also this guide for the Plus model which requires fastboot flashing, but none of the commands work:
fastboot oem unlock-go, fastboot flashing unlock, fastboot flashing unlock_critical, even if I could get a boot.img.
How can I get root on this tablet?
Thank you.
