Hard Reset your SKK Phoenix+ and remove password, pattern lock, gmail account

An SKK tablet came into my workplace and made a tutorial on how to hard reset your SKK Phone+. This tablet has a MTK 6582 chipset, and I also made a back up of its ROM. I will upload it the ROM when I'm done uploading with my pending uplaods. To hard reset your tablet check out the tutorial below.




 

Hard resetting / factory resetting your phone will solve the following issues:

1. If you forgot your pattern lock
2. If you forgot your gmail account
3. If you forgot your password
4. Apps that automatically force closing
5. Stuck in SKK Logo (sometimes does not work if the firmware is totally damage)


NOTE: Performing hard reset will erase your data.

To hard reset:

1. Turn off your tablet
2. Press and Hold first the POWER Button and then immediately Press and HOLD VOLUME DOWN, it will enter in factory mode
3. Factory Mode, select the chinese character with eMMC on it.
4. Wait for it to erase the data in your tablet, it will take about 3 to five minutes and It will automatically reboot.
5. If it did not automatically reboot, you can press the power button until your tablet power off.Note:
If  performing hard reset did not succeed, you need to wipe the cache first in the android system recovery before performing wipe / factory reset.



I hope this tutorial helps you.. If you have any question just drop a comment.

Remove password, pattern lock, gmail account in your SKK A6

This tutorial is for SKK A6. We need to use PC to factory reset your phone. Because this phone does not have a android system recovery. But the alternative way is to wipe your phone in fastboot mode. You can wipe your phone in Windows and my favorite Linux OS (Lubuntu).



You can do this in Windows and Linux OS. 

First you need to download a file. 
1. ADB Fastboot Driver --> Download Here
2. ADB Fastboot Tools -- >Download Here

After Downloading all the files. And install first the driver.

4. Apps that automatically force closing
5. Stuck in Logo Only (sometimes does not work if the firmware is totally damage)

NOTE: Performing hard reset / factory reset will erase your data.

Using fastboot command.

1.Turn off your phone
2. Press and Hold Volume Down and Power button together
3. A fastboot word in your phone will appear
4. Connect your phone in the PC via USB, the driver will automatically install
5. Go to the file that you extracted and look for commandprompt.bat
6. In command prompt type this two command below
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot
7. Wait for your phone to reboot properly.


LINUX Mode

First you need to update your package manager and download fastboot tools for android.

Here is how to download it
1. Open terminal or press this ctrl + alt + T and it will open up Terminal, this is for Ubuntu, Lubuntu command that I have tried.

2. Then in terminal type the following command

"Hard reset your phone after flashing"


Some workarounds:
If you encounter PMT_Changed error here is what you do:
In Latest version of Flashtool

  1. PMT_CHANGED error occur when firmware is not compatible with your phone. Sometimes your phone has a different board version. You should check it too, if your firmware is compatible with your phone. 
  2. Try Firmware upgrade
  3. Try different version of flashtool
  4. Try to set Format All + Download
  5. Or try Manual Format first then Download.


If you encounter Privacy Protection Password:


  1. Open flash_tool.exe
  2. Load the scatter file
  3. Goto Format Tab
  4. Click on Format except bootloader
  5. Press Play/Start Icon
  6. Then remove battery
  7. Insert the battery again
  8. Insert the USB cable (you should hear a beep on your computer, and it should proceed in formatting.)
  9. After done formatting proceed in Flashing.
  10. Goto Download tab (I assume that you loaded the scatter file already)
  11. Uncheck PRELOADER (this is very important)
  12. Press Download
  13. Then remove battery
  14. Insert Battery again
  15. Insert the USB cable (you should hear a beep on your computer, and it should proceed in flashing or downloading the firmware in your phone.)
  16. Power ON the phone after flashing.
  17. Restore your IMEI.

For Invalid IMEI (Does not work in MT6571 SoC):


  1. Root your phone via vRoot/iRoot/Kingoroot or your preferred method in rooting you device. Your phone must be rooted first.
  2. Download MTKDroidsTool version 2.4.8 and version 2.5.3
  3. Enable your USB debugging in Developer Option (you also need this in rooting your phone via PC)
  4. Okay in your PC -- Open MTKDroidstool version 2.4.8 (Mtkdroidstool.exe) first. Make sure that you connected your phone already.
  5. Still in Mtkdroidstool -- Click ROOT
  6. In your phone -- A pop up dialogue will appear, just grant or allow it.
  7. In your PC -- If root shell is granted/allowed, Click in IMEI/NVRAM tab. If it is grayed out this is the time when you open the MTKDroidsTool version 2.5.3.
  8. Enter your original IMEI
  9. Click Replace
  10. Reboot your phone



FOR DAMAGED BASEBAND or UNKNOWN BASEBAND (Your phone must be rooted first)



1. Make sure you have MTKDROIDSTOOL version 2.4.8 or version 2.5.3 (you can search it in google)

2.  In MTKDroidstool (I assume you launch the tool) -- Click in Root. 
3. In your device -- After you press Root, you need to authorize it. A pop up message will appear. Click Allow/Authorize depends on your root application.
4. In MTKDroidsTool -- Click in IMEI/NVRAM, then click in RESTORE.
5. Then look for the folder where you extracted the NVRAM files.
6. Check if the Baseband is fixed. And if the IMEI is fully restored.
7. If Baseband is still Unknown and IMEI is invalid. Then you need to hard reset first your phone.
8. After hard reset your baseband should be fixed already. (base on my experience)
9. If your baseband is fixed sometimes the IMEI is still invalid. So you need to restore the IMEI.
10.  To restore IMEI follow Step 1-4, but you should not restore. You should fill the IMEI then click REPLACE. Then reboot your phone.  VOILA! I hope the phone is fully working :)

I hope this tutorial help you. Please drop a comment if something is not clear to you.
