Hi,
Finally there is a complete working firmware (for sp flash tools) for the bricked or in bootloop hanging SWM8802.
If you're device is working wel, then is my advice have fun with it and do not flash it!!
If there is an update from the manufacturer i will update the post with it.
For the bricked or in bootloop hanging SWM8802 follow these steps:
Code:
1) Download Firmware, sp flash tools and mt8127 vcom usb drivers from the link bellow.
2) Extract the folders.
3) Disconnect the device completely from the power!! (I use a 12v adapter to connect the device at home).
4) Open sp flash tools and choose scatter-loading File (search the one located in the swm8802 firmware folder).
5) Press download button in sp flash tools.
[B][COLOR="Magenta"][COLOR="Red"]"Keep in mind that after connecting the power (in my case adapter),
you only have 2 - 3 seconds to connect the usb cable between the device and computer.
That is why you should already connect the USB cable to the computer or the device before starting to flash"
[/COLOR][/COLOR][/B]
6) Power on you're device.
7) Connect the unit to the computer with a usb cable on the front usb port of you're device.
8) If you have done all the steps right, sp flash tool will start flashing your device.

Working?
Since using this firmware update on the SWM8802, has it gotten bricked or stuck in a bootloop at all again? Or is it working 100% perfectly fine? Any issues you're aware of? Thanks!

I have the idea that my stereo is working beter, i used the option format in SP flash tools. The only thing is that i needed to find a navigation software because the IGO wasnt there anymore.
No issues or something that i have seen or feel in this rom. The only problem is, i dont like that i can not turn off the beep from the touchscreen in the settings.
my device does not work now does not turn on, Please help with another firmware for my swm8802
thank you
Hi, I have a similar problem with my SWM 8806 unit. I follow all the steps published in this thread but the SP Flash Tool can´t download the firmware (MT8127). It seems like a problem with the Drivers. I have installed the PreLoader USB VCOM, DA USB VCOM, USB PORT and USB VCOM in a Windows 7 laptop.
This is the log:

It is exactly the same with the original but faster.
And it is rooted it has super user su.
You can change the background of the radio if you change the backgroud of the default launcer the same background goes to radio.
I will try to make a video just give me time

Does this work on the swm 8802? just run the update?
Anyone tested this with 8802?
Thanks for this info, your english is not that bad!
If have been struggling to flash my swm8802, been following all the steps/downloaded the drivers/scatter files and flash tool.
Still unable to get the flash tool to run, could it be because my unit is still in the vehicle connected to power cord? Could it be that the drivers isnt installed correctly?(code 10 error with yellow sign on driver) or is it as simple perhaps the usb cable is faulty? When plugging in laptop(windows10) I dont see or hear any sign that a unit is plugged in, should I see something?
Sorry for lengthy Questions

To make flash tool to work you must first take out the unit from the car. Then have ready an external power and a usb cable plugged to the pc. Start the flash tool press download and then plug the power to the unit and immediately the usd. Flash tool must start downloading

Why you wanna use DOWNLOAD?
From 4.4 to 5.1 you want to use FIRMWARE UPGRADE with SP Flashtool.

If you want to update system from 4.4 to 5.1, you will use firmware upgrade option in SP Tool but need to put phone in DOWNLOAD MODE. This is done with many Android phone brands (LG, Samsung, ...).
Thank you for your response. I got download mode finally. I only need to connect usb without battery and then put battery in. Many tutorials said to put battery first and then connect usb.
Close it!
The single way my phone connects is if I keep volume down pressed longer. Even if it appears to be connected in SPFlash, still keep volume down pressed until the first FORMAT action in SP. Also, change the usb hub and the usb cable you are using. Sometimes it helps (in mine it did)
my s3 basic is not charging when on.. also when connected to pc thru usb, ipc shows device malfunctioning ,and there is no indication on phone..I try to connect to sp flash tool also no success..same error"usb device not recognized pops up every 2s.everything else is fine..Any method to upgrade to 5.1 now on official kk

update : but usb otg works
I have meizu m2 note. Its now bricked. I was using sp flash tool to unlock the bootloader and install twrp recovery.
i was following the guide giving on youtube. I can't attach an outside link here.
So i did everything this guide said, but on the last step when i switched off my phone and connected to the usb port. The sp flash tool stopped working i waited for 5-10 mins. Finally it crashed. Now when i try to connect my phone it says usb device not recognised (the last device you connected to this computer malfunctioned). I cannot start my phone. I tried pressing the power button for 10 secs, tried pressing volume + with power button, nothing happens.
Anybody have any idea how to solve this.
Go to download old version Flyme os 4+ any but original rom you have must install,
And dow load any latest sp tool,
And also downlaod latest all mtk devices drivers,
If you have system knoledge you can install all of these pc softwares,
Test it once again your phone connecting to computer,
Just detected only nothing. Can do that its just detected your will be alive soon but its very easy if you know a little bit mobile knowledge,
Lets go to process
Step 1 check best and good branded usb connecting cable, test to connect usb cable to your phone,
Step 2 extract Flyme stock rom, and extract mtk sp tool,
Step 3 open sp tool showing error there is no any scatter. Or download file dont worry, da file availble at sptools folder you can go and select, and scatter. File availble at flyme stock rom folder lets check it then select firmware all formate and install that you have to select that option, then you select download and now connect your phone just leave ituntill done then your phone is will alive feel happy like me if you need any more information any other problem connect. To. Me

Ok guys here is the step by step even for noobs how to unbrick Xiaomi Mi Max (helium).
If you have access to fastboot jump to step 11
Requirements :
* MiFlash Beta :Download Here
* MiFlash 20151028 : Download Here
* Global Fastboot Rom : Download Here
* Xiaomi Qualcomm Drivers
* Screw and tools.
* Paper clip or cable
* For sure Usb Cable.
Now if you all ready lets continue repair. First of all you need to open back cover.
1) Open Back cover and disconnect fingerprint sensor and battery. Dont connect battery till you finish whole process. (How to disassemble video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMG04GqVU_0&t=64s)
2) Make a paper clip to setup short circuit in your mainboard. Here are the testpoints. https://s15.postimg.org/s0j0qhq3v/Xiaomi_Max_Test_Points.png
3) Ok here is the hardest and trickiest one. While you are holding paper clip or cable with those testpoint you need to connect phone to pc. My suggestion 1st connect usb cable to phone then make short circuit then connect to pc.
* One more time you need to connect phone to pc while those two testpoints connected to eachother with a paperclip or a cable.
4) Here is the second tricky part. Unzip rom file. Important part is the name of folder. Please try to make it as short as possible.
Ex : C:\mimax\
So after extraction your folder will looks like this : http://oi63.tinypic.com/334rr11.jpg
5) You need to install both MiFlash versions. They are 2 different software so you shouldnt see any errors like "it is already installed".
6) Go To C:\XiaoMi\XiaoMiFlash and run XiaoMiFlash.exe as an administrator. Click browse and choose your rom folder. NOT IMAGES FOLDER ROM FOLDER !!!! ( Ex : C:\mimax)
7) Click "refresh" you will see COM port and click "flash" If you dont see any COM port here first check if you installed drivers correctly. If drivers are installed correct please go back to step 3 and try again.
8) Install will start and continue and %99 possibly it will stop in the middle You will receive Max buffer 256 error. No worries just keep calm and take deep breath. Go to next step
9) Disconnect usb cable from pc and phone. Reconnect battery. Now voila phone will ready to work BUT NOT READY TO WORK FLAWLESS. So now put your phone to fastboot mode. Yes you read correct now your phone will be in fastboot mode even it could be ready to use but just wait for next step.
10) Fastboot mode : Volume Down + Power button you will see fastboot screen and connect to PC.
11) Now close old MiFlash and run the normal one from either desktop or C:\Program Files (x86)\Xiaomi\MiPhone\MiFlash.exe or C:\Program Files\Xiaomi\MiPhone\MiFlash.exe.
12) Choose your rom folder. NOT IMAGES FOLDER ROM FOLDER !!!! ( Ex : C:\mimax).
13) Click "refresh" and this time you have to see device serial number on device tab. Now click flash and let process finish. It takes around 3-5 minute and phone will reboot by itself.
Now re-assemble your phone. DONT FORGET TO CONNECT FINGERPRINT SENSOR. Now you are totally ready.
Tried 5 times with my very own Xiaomi Mi Max 128 GB.
Different reactions
Hi,
My device could still boot on fastboot mode, and flashes successfully through it on MiFlash Beta. However, the device remains stuck on Mi logo. I've already tested flashing on EDL mode apparently successfully, with the same results. I've flashed TWRP, but the device don't enter recovery mode. What can I do? Any suggestion will be welcome.
benzersizadam said:
Many thanks for this thread, I stuck on my mi max with no reaction at anything, I read more than 100 threads, I tried testpoint, DFC (deep flash cable), click inside usb terminal to pc, windows 8, 7 10, 32 bits, 64 bits, programms like qfil (qpst), flasher tools for other phones and nothing, before with other apps at first second gives me error "can not read from port COM...", and now at least advance to 5 seconds with same error, I need to know it is neccesary too disconnect, remove two plastic cables down where places the battery

Working also with Hydrogen. Thanks.
@benzersizadam
This is why XDA is a great FORUM! Thank you for writing this thorough solution!
My device is up and running currently with MIUI 8! It went from a dead brick to a productive device again! I was almost giving up hope! You saved the day! It was a lot of work, but it is great seeing the device alive again.
I would just add that taking the cover off doesn't even need a tool like in the original disassembly youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dULcMWCEgEc
Yay!

Hi @SubwayChamp Everything I did was in the post and video from above in the first post by benz....
His instructions were perfect along with the youtube video. It's tricky, true, but with patience you can go through the steps and get your device running again. I was so glad that @Qulox gave me this link to this thread.
As you go through the steps, if you get stuck, we can try to give you advice.
This works for Hydrogen as well.
Many thanks
I have two dead mi max. One 128gb helium and one 32gb hydrogen.
128gb helium is completely lifeless. No charging led, no vibrations, no fastboot mode. Though i could bring it up to edl mode showing right qualcomm device in device manager. I tried flashing stock rom as mentioned in this guide which rather went successful without giving any error, even while battery connector was removed.
But mobile is still in same lifeless condition. Other than flashing process going through, it didnt make any difference. Dont know whats wrong. Also i didnt have to use two miflash versions as mentioned in steps as flashing process didnt give any error.
32gb hydrogen, boots up in flashboot mode, shows charging led, mi logo even edl model worked without any issue. It even boots up, but gives error of encryption unsuccessful asking me to reset device. I tried factory reseting it. Tried flashing twrp and wiping, formatting data, changing file system to all formats like fat, f2fs, ext1, ext2, ext3, ext4. Tried flashing crdoid and RR based on orea. Nothing working.
With twrp it keeps bootlooping showing mi logo. And with stock rom, recovery shows up encryption error. Followed procedure mentioned in this guide as well.
Is there anything am i missing or can do? Btw, bootloader is locked for both the devices. I could flash twrp referring another guide which suggested to replace stock recovery in rom files/ folder and flashing it like stock rom through miflash tool.
Battery problems? in the 128 especially?
If "nothing works" through any normal software methods, the ram &/or ROM memory chips might have become semi-defect. They are not eternal . . .

Maybe cable didn't work caused cable be used is for jbl.
First install Mediatek USB Drivers and then click on download button and after that connect your phone. And that should help you.
Assuming that your pc has already been installed with mediatek usb drivers,you have to click download first and then connect usb to mobile(must be in shutdown mode) by holding both volume buttons,then after at max 2 min downloading will be done. This process has worked fine with me...hope it helps...

Put the rom on an USB stick, connect the stick to the phone with adapter, go into TWRP and flash the rom.

Worst case you can use Qfil.
But first disconnect all unneeded peripherals, and try another cable if possible. Go read the unbricked tested and working. Search the thread for my name, to everything you need in 3 or four posts

Go read the unbricking thread, it is going to take you days to read, understand, and finally unbrick it. If you are not seeing the device in the system manager of your computer ( Assuming you have a PC) then maybe you are actually bricked.
But, you own a phone that can be unbricked, no not a big deal. It can be resolved, the instructions in the unbricked tested and working thread are explicit go read it.
I create several how to's within that thread on unbricking, and have updated the links on the software tools needed. I have personally unbricked 7 leeco, and several others unbricked their phones by following the advice of everyone who contributed to the thread.
Everything you need and more is there that thread, waiting for you.
Go there get the files, read the instructions and soon you phone will work again. Do not download the qfil from the Original post...it doesn't work. I don't have the links to paste at the moment, nor the time to search for you Just use the thread search bar and type my name to get consolidated steps read through all of the posts, because its a progression.
There are three methods you can use to unbrick, the easiest method is probably Qfil, and Flash 2.0
Essentially you need the Qfil: le_zl1_qfil_ufs_fix , FlashOne2.0 files, go ahead and download prog_ufs_firehose_8996_ddr just in case. But it should download automatically. You need to follow the steps to get your computer ready to unbrick the phone...all in the thread instructions.
Once you do it once successfully, it will become easier with each try.

Ok i am starting now i will come back with the results
As i understand my phone is not bricked cause i can go into fastboot and REcovery. The problem is i dont have OS installed so i stuck at Leeco image. The other problem is when i connect the phone with the Pc this happens on device manager. So how i can make it to see the internal storage and put inside the phone the rom.

Install Google's USB ADB and Fastboot drivers.
https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb
Can you boot into download mode (I think it's volume down + power) and then connect to PC. After that, you should see the unknown device on device manager. Try to right-click on it and update drivers. On the next screen, select that you have drivers and you'd like to pick your own (not the Windows Update option!) Then select Manufacturer Google and Fastboot/ADB debugging option. Device might work in fastboot now, you can test by doing "fastboot devices". If that works, then you can install ROM via Fastboot.
If this doesn't work, you can revert changes by going into device manager and uninstalling the driver for that device.

Hi, sorry for the late reply.
Are you able to see these in screenshots? Between steps 2 and steps 3, you might need to select Android ADB or Android Device before you can see Google in the dropdown.
Maybe after these you might be able to see device in fastboot?
