Download the ROM that you want to flash onto the computer and extract the file by right-clicking on it > choosing extract from the menu. (You don’t have to install the driver a second time if you’ve already got it on the computer.)Ģ.

Start off by downloading and install the Android CDC driver on the Windows computer. You can refer to the list of devices with MediaTek system chips from Wikipedia if you’re unsure, or use a search engine such as Google to research it further yourself. The SP Flash Tool was actually developed and released by MediaTek Inc., hence why it’s always working for those particular devices with MediaTek chips. For more on SP Flash Tool versions, you can see the Smartphone Flash Tool’s download page. It doesn’t matter what version the latest will be compatible with more devices, but all manufacturers share the same versions. The SP Flash Tool works for all ZTE mobile devices, as well as for smartphones from other manufacturers that have MediaTek chips as well. On the other hand, other manufacturers share flashing tools. Samsung uses the Odin flashing tool, for example. Some manufacturers like Samsung have their own dedicated flashing tools.

If you need to flash a stock ROM (firmware flash file), custom ROM, custom recovery, or rooting file on any of the ZTE mobile devices, then you can use the SP Flash Tool (Smartphone Flash Tool), provided that your smartphone comes with a MediaTek system chip inside.
