Hello Guys,
Many times we encounter a situation where we need to do some software update, flash custom ROM, install stock ROM etc, so it is advisable to take full firmware/ROM backup of your device. If required then you can flash this backup to restore your device.
We will use MTK client Github tool for this backup process and using same tool we can flash the backup firmware.
This method has been tested on OPPO Reno6 5G which is powered by MediaTek MT6877 chip. Backup size was approx 12 GB. Using this method you can backup firmware of any other supported MediaTek chip in this tool. In this method I don't backup userdata because this tool backups entire partition size irrespective of actual data stored.
Step1: Pre-requisite -Installing required drivers and doing setup
Install MediaTek driver.
Install python(during installation of python please select "install for all user" from customization and tick add path to system variable).
install usbdk.
download extarct Mtk client tool.
go to folder where you extract mtk client

open cmd here and run below command
cd mtkclient
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
androidfilehost.com
github.com
github.com
Step2: Create a new folder/directory in your computer to store the backup files.
Step3: Run full firmware backup
In cmd run command below, please skip userdata partition only because of very huge size.
python mtk rl --skip userdata "<full path to store the backup files>"
Once all the partitions dumped it will show message "All dumped partitions success"
During backup process it will dump the device preloader, this file is very important so, please keep this file safely. this file may require in future.
Step3: Reboot the phone
Once backup is done, you can restart your phone by pressing vol up and power button together for 30 sec.
Step4: How to Restore (if required)
Backup process might have created approximately 58 files but we do not need to flash all those files.
We only need to flash below files, so create a new folder and copy all these 33 files from original backup to your newly created folder.
audio_dsp.bin
boot.bin

super.bin
tee1.bin
tee2.bin
vbmeta.bin
vbmeta_system.bin
vbmeta_vendor.bin
open cmd and type below command
python mtk wl "<full path where 33 files are stored>"
Backup should be restored on same device from which it was taken else device may brick.
Thanks and Regards
