SP Flash Tools
Disable the modemmanager package (apt-get remove modemmanager) for SP Flash tools to work properly.

-
Turn off the device
-
Unscrew the maintenance cover. This requires the torx screwdriver.
-
Connect the PC to the device using the USB cable. * Use only the right port labeled "Android USB" *. A connection with the left can destroy your device.
-
Start SP-Flash tools. Use the scatter file l706_dfbh_v_695scatter.txt to initialize the tool.
-
Now make backups of any partitions. The following instructions will help: https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/anleitungen-fuer-mediatek-geraete.2400/anleitung-backup-readback-per-sp-flash-tool.746503.html
The most important is a backup of your "boot" partition. To do this, set the following:
` Start Address: 0x0000000001d20000 lenght: 0x0000000001000000 `
Read this part of the flash memory as "boot.img". Furthermore, you could also backups the recovery partition.
*** Attention, do not skip this step !! The backup of the boot partition is needed in the following steps. ***
-
Using SP-FlashTools, flash the partition "boot" with the recovery file from "hacks/recovery.img"
-
Restart the MC, it should automatically load the TWRP recovery. If not, something went wrong when flashing.
-
Start the ADB shell. Then execute the following commands: `` `
mount / system /
echo "persist.service.adb.enable = 1" >> /system/build.prop echo "persist.service.debuggable = 1" >> /system/build.prop echo "persist.sys.usb.config = mtp, adb" >> /system/build.prop
echo "qemu.hw.mainkeys = 0" >> /system/build.prop
Disable Recovery Check (https://privatstrand.dirkschmidtke.de/2016/07/25/root-and-custom-recovery-on-mediatek-smartphones/)
rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p `` `
-
Push your original boot partition from step 5 onto the device via ADB. Furthermore, you once again load the "hacks/recovery.img" file on your device:
` adb push bootimg.bin / sdcard / adb push recovery.bin / sdcard` -
Flashing with TWRP the two files accordingly. Your original boot.img comes in the boot partition, the "hacks/recovery" file in the recovery partition
-
Restart the device. It should start the original MC firmware. Now you can also access the device during via ADB.
-
Now install the Trebuchet Launcher or alternatively your favorite launcher via ADB: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/cyanogenmod/trebuchet-2/trebuchet-2-8-1-0-16-release/trebuchet-8-1-0-16-android-apk-download/
` adb install com.lineageport.trebuchet_8.1.0.16-8010016_minAPI21 \ (nodpi \) _ apkmirror.com.apk Once the launcher is installed, you have to start it. To do this, execute the following command: ``
adb shell at start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -c android.intent.category.HOME com.lineageport.trebuchet
`` ` Then you can set by settings the Trebuchet Launcher as default launcher. *** Attention: These controls are just wallpapers. Do not be confused, the Android buttons are as usual below ***
- Download the Google Apps: https://opengapps.org/
` Platform: ARM Android Version: 6.0 Variant: pico `
Other variants (micro, full) do not work - there produce only crashes / reboot loops.
You can boot into recovery by using
` adb reboot recovery `
and flash the ZIP file. In addition, you can also use the device with zb. SuperSU rooten (if needed)
** Attention, the device behaves a bit strange at the next start. Just tap the screen once in a while and it will reboot and everything will be fine **
- Get new wallpapers from the Google Store and equip your device with them. I recommend the app "Walloid"
