Unlocking Bootloder on MTK Devices

What is bootloader

 UNLOCK INSTRUCTIONS

If you fail to unlock your bootloader you can PM me for assistance but there is no guarantee I can solve it. Just assist based on the MTK devices I have encountered. Different manufacturer, different SoC, different models have their own challenges to Root, Unlock Boot loader or install TWRP or even enable read and write your SD Card(only posssible if you have TWRP)

MX10 PRO TV Box (this is the Pro variant)

MX10 Pro Android Pie 9.0 TV Box Upgrade

MX10 Pro TV box equipped with an RK 3328 CPU quad-core SoC produced by Rockchip, is able to play all the video files, including 4K smoothly. The smart MX10 PRO TV Box runs under the operating system Android. The manufacturer installs the latest version, namely Android 8.1 Nougat. This gives us an intuitive interface and the ability to produce the same actions that are used to on your smartphone or tablet. MX10 PRO TV Box comes with 4GB DDR3 RAM, this is enough for daily work, viewing the video in high quality, surfing the net and entertainment. With 32GB eMMC flash memory.

 A word of advice - dont rush into buying a Chinese phone based on their battery capacity e.g Ulephone Power 5 - 13000mAh battery capacity. Wait for a tear down review from techno savvy users. Because there are models that listed their humungous battery capacity but when actual measurement was done it shows it is hardly even 55% of the listed capacity. Most budget priced phones with "dual main camera" usually the 2nd twin lens is only a sensor and make sure the camera when specified as auto focus is actually mechanical focus and not software focus.

HOMTOM Mobile Phones

You can visit their support page to download most of their phones firmware.

In April 2018 HOMTOM introduced their master piece model the 6 inch phablet - HOMTOM HT70 Naugat ,MTK 6750T Octa Core powered ,with     4 Gb RAM and 64 Gb ROM.All this at a budget priced you can get it at a bargain of below  USD150 or even less. 

Too bad it doesnt come with Android Oreo. My personal preference is for phones with screen size of 6 inches to 7 inches (Lenovo Phab 2 comes to mind but it comes only with Marshmallow)
See my user experience on page later pages

HOM TOM HT70 6" 4/64GB Android Nougat

Instructions are given in PDF format that links to external sites (no ads) for suitable MTK drivers download and also copies of the apps that I used to successfully flash my phone. The "modified" firmware assembled from original Hom Tom source minus stock recovery and TWRP 3.11 inserted a modified boot loaders minus all the "**.verified" files that should remove additional unforseen problems that should arise during attempted flashing. P/S : you should be assured of a successful flash if your PC recognised the phone in fast adb mode.  

  

Note : Antutu  CPU Benchmark score for MT6750T are very poor compared to QualComm MSM 8996 or Exynos 8890, they average below 50% of those QualComm and Exynos.
