I lost my IMEI again when flashing as firmware upgrade from stock to Mad 7.1. It all began when I had a no sim card issue and I wrongly did a "format and download" Anyway, the phone works okay on stock after manually adding IMEI. My question is

1. Can I flash IMEI after I do a fresh install of MAD 8.1 with a TWRP recovery using SN write tool? ( I'm almost sure I'll lose my IMEI even if I'm on firmware upgrade mode)
2. You suggested earlier about doing a clean install of MAD 8.1 as stock. Is there a scatter file for that in the Apollo_lite_All zip? I didn't proceed as I wanted to know if I could flash IMEI after I do flash TWRP recovery.

Is this a useful guide to follow?

Sorry if I'm bring stupid and thanks in advance...

I do not know exactly what file it is and for which device is (in your Link)
In Apollo Lite All zip if you extract the file, inside included and the stock rom...If you extract stock rom will find "scatter" BUT ! STOCK ROM SCATTER !!
(scatter of mados 8.1 included on mados 8.1 zip if you extract this)
_For custom rom you can see here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/k4-note/how-to/guide-imei-fix-devices-custom-rom-t3630070
_For stock rom the easiest way is : https://androidmtk.com/download-sp-meta-tool
https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-12328.html
(You can use SN write tool only in stock rom)
You can see here my answer in old Post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75866415&postcount=702

OR : Install terminal emulator > type su & then press enter to get permission > write this : echo ‘AT+EGMR=1,7,”1234567890”‘ >/dev/pttycmd1
& press enter > reboot device
(If you have dual SIM type & this line : echo ‘AT+EGMR=1,10,”1234567890”‘ >/dev/pttycmd1 ) & reboot device
(1234567890 is virtual IMEI ! ....you have to change with your real IMEI of course ! )
for terminal emulator root required

The problem maybe is in File
a few solutions : first try with this file : https://mega.nz/#!Z3RwGT5L!2DTAhxDULqZ7TR8lNq8dUQpE94-HOwPtboRyRZd205s

(or another version SPFT sometimes)

(some times on mtk error 8417 : https://youtu.be/n-m-TqDQcFk )
Don't Install file on any partition disk..Install it on C: downloads normally

Previous versions do nothing when I hit the download button after setting the scatter file.

Now getting this error with the file you provided

Unfortunately doesn't support MT6797 (you can not use it anymore to backup MT67xx chipsets)
did you install VCOM drivers and android CDC drivers? So,you can try with some other tool , depending on what you want to do...
Read in OP, there are many different tools...

The official website downloads and the ones uploaded here saying "stock" full_k15tb_a-ota-1508410813 etc are OTAs and the scatter files on these don't load on SP flash tools.

Look for these file types. They have a good scatter file. You won't get the errors!

alps-mp-m0.mp9-V1.78.1_nb6797.6c.m_P10 – full_k15tb_a-user 6.0 MRA58K

Good luck.

spft error 00xc0050003 is a matter of poorly installed drivers,maybe an old version SPFT etc...
the files in the OP works properly and I have used hundreds of times - by me and other users (scatter that contained in the file works fine)

Unfortunately, they didn't work for me. Which is why I replied to another persons query. The error message I got was invalid scatter file. Upon opening the scatter file in a text editor as well looked different. None of the links in the OP had a working scatter file for me. At the same tine both mad os 7.x and 8.x scatter files always worked.

I'm my opinion its more helpful to specify one SP flash version that works with one zip. Neither the Vernee Apollo Lite Pack All zip version, nor the one on the website worked for me. Windows 10, Nov update. Fresh Windows OS installs, VCom drivers etc. I've ruled out all of those along with random SP flash tool versions.

I just wanted to say, if you get an invalid scatter file error, perhaps worth trying what i suggested as well. It works well for me. Ever since my IMEI got wiped going back to stock is very often a routine, maybe not 100 times but many times.
