New S3A not booting and 4032 error on flash

I was wondering if somebody has got this before with the Jiayu S3A? I tried to flash a new S3A yesterday by spflashtool because it was delivered with a non rooted rom. Tried to flash an older 5.1 rom in order to flash custom recovery later on (and then 7.1.1 ofcourse ). However it gave me an error (PMT changed for the ROM, it must be downloaded) and some pages on google suggested a format (without bootloader) so I did that. After that I succesfully flashed a rom version 5.1 but when I tried to flash custom recovery or other roms, it kept giving the error message BROM ERROR : S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (4032) and the phone won't boot. Tried different roms and with/without battery, different settings, different drivers but I still can't flash a rom nor boot the device. Maybe the battery was drained in the process (it is now on a charger for a night). Or maybe it was a S3+ or something, sold with the wrong type?(The box and label on the telephone said JY-S3 and it had 32 gb so it can not be a S3+ right?) Never had this problem before with other S3's so I'm hoping that someone can help me! Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you messed things up completely by flashing the Lollipop ROM and formatting. You git the S3A with 32 GB RAM, right? Afaik this comes preinstalled with Marshmallow and there is no compatible Lollipop ROM for the S3A 32 GB.
If I were you I would try to flash stock MM again. If you really flashed Lollipop with formatting option in SP Flash Tool, you probably need to format, too. Make sure that the phone boots again. Next, flash TWRP recovery from m.a.d. team through SP Flash Tool. Finally flash the m.a.d. Nougat ROM, nano GAPPS and SuperSu in recovery.

Hi all,
I unlocked bootloader rooted phone and installed latest twrp and tried to install lineage ROM. But it is throwing some error like invalid argument, /asdf not found. Is it because I am trying to flash from lollipop firmware to nougat one. Please help me..

Yes, make sure you have the latest twrp for your device, 302-5L/T. Follow this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-2-laser/development/rom-resurrection-remix-n-t3509698 , go to post #2 and flash the fix for your device. You can now flash custom ROM 13/14.

flashing troubles

I'm having trouble flashing my P8lite with a custom rom, every rom I try twrp tells me it's for hi6210sft and my device is a p8litekirin.
Anyone know a fix for this, or point me in the direction of a rom that does work with p8litekirin?
(I can flash it with a stock rom but then I'd need to install TWRP again, as somehow latest stock firmware seems to overwrite and keeps overwriting custom recovery at every attempt I tried to install. Needed to do a rollback via adb to get twrp working again)
Thanks in advance

First of all before flashing any custom ROM on this device flash B896 first.
It's normal for the custom recovery to be replaced with stock one when you flash stock firmware.
After you flashed B896, reboot the phone into bootloader mode aka fastboot, flash twrp and then try to flash a custom rom of your choice.
