Question factory firmware

[contevo]

hello!


I have been searching for the proper factory firmware for this phone. I found one but was missing the xml file or scatter file to flash with SP tool

I managed to unlock the bootloader using this tool

but i didn't go any further until find proper restore firmware.

You haven't gotten a hold of any firmware for the 5+ yet? I should have done a lil research before getting the 6 Pro!
It's bull**** tmobile or wingtech whoever it is isn't looking out for Jr. Dev crowd, which i am.

I know its been awhile, but I'm new, so... Did you ever get the stock firmware? I have it, just ask. I am wary of posting links

Were you able to do anything with it? I tried every available method on Windows and Linux and I failed to flash with adb fastboot, failed with SP flash, failed to install TWRP, even though I followed every available method online. I tried to port TWRP, failed. Failed to do a ROM dump. Failed to extract payload.bin and/scatter file. Idk what the folk is up with this phone, but it's locked up tighter than a constipated nun. The file set is unlike anything else I've ever seen from mediatek or anyone else. People have made suggestions for this or that, but nothing has worked and there are no known working methods that I know of. I am not about to pore over the source code and meticulously comb through the code until I figure it out. This phone will likely be obsolete by then. Sh!t, we'll have flying cars and space travel by then. Apparently I'm not allowed to offer to use view bots to boost their ad ticker to make them money, but it's perfectly okay to solicit help for donations. One is spamming and the other isn't. But help is help and we're a 'community'. You figure they'd make enough with marketing as mainstream as they are. But apparently they don't want their ad ticker going up because they want people like is to take a hike. No help for us. Even though people with crappy phones make up the VAST majority of phone owners. Far fewer people are walking around with an s22 than they are a REVVL 4. I bet my last dollar. Xda really has changed a lot. I remember when I first started doing this I had an LG l38c Optimus dynamic. Xda was SO helpful then. They helped me figure out odin, got me into Android kitchen, adb etc. Hell, I fell in love with android development and hacking all over again because of this site. Now I can't even get a reply from anybody. Not even to tell me to go **** in my hat. This is just unreal. Thanks for all the help guys! You fell off, big time! I'd downvote you if I could. Sorry... I'm rambling... Anyway, if you figured out how to flash back to stock then please let me know. Thanks

Did you ever figure out how to flash back to stock? I've tried every known method every which way and nada.
