basedtech thanks for been response and please don't hesitate in replying my question...have been flashing before but I want to have in depth knowledge in it very well.

another question: can I use stock ROM to flash custom ROM with this process.

question: if customer bring his/her mtk device for flashing or upgrading, pls is thr anything I should take into consideration before take any steps or I jux need to download the specific phone stock ROM and follow the steps above.

mark1 Stock rom is the official rom from manufacturer dats follow come rom
While custom rom is a customized rom designed to work on you fone, e.g samsung stock rom is customize to work on infinix, this i possibly bcos d rom was customize. So flashing of custom rom cn nt be flashed via dis method.

Things u should considered is know the exact spec of the device u want to upgrade nd download it right firmware.

And on no account should sp tool be interrupted when flashing is in progress.

basedtech it seems you don't get me right or you are tired with my prob.

u said this tutorials is not for custom ROM flashing.

so what I'm asking is that, how will I know the ROM the phone is running before know maybe sp tools will do the work...since the phone is dead already for me to know the kind of OS its running maybe its custom or stock
