MTK META Utility V78:18.01.2023 New (Features/Enhancements/Improvements) :
Due to the requests of many users suggested restoring Samsung Force BootROM (Crash By PGPT) back,
we have restored it to support A136U.
- Added Samsung Force Brom by PGPT for :
- Samsung Galaxy A13 5G :
(SM-A136U, SM-A136U1, SM-A136W, SM-A136B)
- Samsung Galaxy M13 5G :
(SM-M136B, SM-M136B/DS)
- Samsung Galaxy F42 5G :
(SM-E426B, SM-E426B/DS)
- Samsung Galaxy A31 :
(SM-A315F, SM-A315F/DS, SM-A315G/DS, SM-A315G, SM-A315N)
- To exit BRom after using PGPT method,
you need good PGPT to download as UserSection from BRom tab,
GPT backups can be found inside (MTKMETAUtility\\SAMGPT) directory.
- Added Device manager button.
* Please don't try this function with :
- Devices with (Locked/Active).
- Devices with [SEC CTRL STATUS (0/2)].
- Devices from TracFone WS carrier (TFN).
* Bug Fixes :
- Fixed (STATUS_DA_HASH_MISMATCH) while exiting BRom for VIVO devices - or BootSection download function in general.
- Fixed (Chip not supported) while exiting Brom for VIVO V23 5G (VIVO MT68xx). After force BootROM with other tools.
- Fixed progress bar alignment.
- Regarding (A032M/A035M) - A03 Latin America versions :
We haven't succeeded yet for dead boot repair procedure via USB,
reason is (our developer needs a test device in his hands,
we couldn't find the needed test device in his area,
if anyone can ship it to him, he will complete the function for [M-LA] versions).
We have tried to use (SPLLdr/U-Boot/LK) as FLDs, but when we run it,
it turns to real time execution,
and the device disconnects immediately and enter Fast-boot mode,
after execute the FDL in case if LK is alive.
However, you can service [M/LA] version and revive it,
using Pandora's Box software, until we find a stable one click solution.
Pandora's Box uses (generic/autoloader/no-auth) for that SoC.
For 'F' version, use FDL's from USB recovery image from Samsung factory,
which isn't compatible with 'M' builds.
- We have implemented a basic dead boot repair support for (A035G),
it seems to have the same (SoC/D-RAM) config as 'F' version,
please let us know if it's working or not, if it worked,
flash A035GXXS2BVL6 after boot repair operation.
This software was made for educational purposes only.

- DEBUG_USB_RECOVERY PAC files available everywhere, you can download from (Infinity/Pandora) support.
and flash with any SPD tool. After FW update, the device will stuck at Fastboot mode,
in case if you flash with any tool, make sure to un-tick (SPLLoaderUFS) partition,
you will need to re-connect in BRom mode, and recover with our software.
- After repair boot with our software, just flash the device with ODIN using Samsung factory firmware, recommended version to flash after repair (A035FXXU2BVI8) or higher.
- After flash Debug Binaries (Eng/Dev ROM) in BootROM mode,
you can Unlock & Relock the Bootloader easily via Fatsboot cmd,
using the following commands in Fatsboot mode :
- fastboot.exe oem unlock.
- fastboot.exe flashing lock.
Bug Fixes :
- Random crashes while (searching/connection) to COM ports.
- Some (GUI/Internal) optimizations were added.
Phased out (G-Lock disable tasks) :
- For a legal issues, we don't do these operations anymore.

you can't add a new account (no access to MI ACC server).
- The patch can be removed by firmware update (USB/OTA), and will not be removed with ordinary soft-reset, you will need to select (MODEM - NON-HLOS.bin) file for the patch.
This feature already exists and available to operate with many tools (but doing it manually is FUN).
- Application GUI updated.
* Phased out :
- VIVO New Sec Read Info => [We have analyzed, reviewed the risks of this operation for VIVO MTK devices with UFS based chipsets (This option can reset the device to BootROM mode, despite the fuses and test-point disable, but it will also remove the calibration data such as IMEI/Fingerprint data), the option is disabled temporally.
However, you were still able to use the previous versions to access this feature].

MTK META Utility V65 :
Most requested feature for Windows :
since windows is missing Ext4 FS driver, and only support mount as Read-only FS for Ext4 partitions.
Here, Ext4 File system explorer (Read/Write/Delete) access with SUPER IMG (META-Data) support :
* Supported features :
- List Ext4 directories (sub-partitions).
- Preview Ext4 file content.
- Read Ext4 File content into local file.

- No Need to exit BRom, because the device just will enter BRom mode normally same as A10s (no soft-brick).
- The used method is pretty old, called (Platform reset to emergency mode using PWR CTRL registers).
- The method might work on older chipsets (no vendor specified) such as (MT65xx, MT673x, MT675x).
- I'll share a new post later to explain how they have (MediaTek) disabled this kind of exploiting (PWR CTRL REGS) these days on VIVO MT6765 devices.
- This software is provided 'as-is', without any express or implied warranty.
In no event will the authors be held liable for any damages arising from the use of this software, please only use for legal servicing and maintenance of mobile phones, and must not be used for illegal purposes.
MTK META Utility V61 :
- Added LG DKZ directly (Extract/Decrypt) to raw images.
Supported KDZ formats and types:
- LGE KDZ v1 - v2 - v3 (MediaTek & Qualcomm).
- Standard compressed Z-Library (zlib).
- Z-Standard compression (zstd) fast lossless compression algorithm (other tools don't handle this type of compression very well).
- Extraction will now be standard raw image,
scattered and file (merge/combination) sparse creation (system/vendor/product/super),
some pieces, will be added in version.
- However, you can still do it manually,
Convert pgpt. I will deploy and add items to the scattered file &
Extract the IMG preloader from the extracted raw preloader &
and use ext4_tools to (merge/merge) the extra chunks.
Some of the files tested:
- LG K51 (K500MM10f_00_MPS_US_OP_0610.kdz)
LG K61 (Q630HA20a_00_OP_SCA_OP_1229 kdz)

For Samsung MTK devices with chipset (MT6739/W/WW), which fail to exit from B-Rom with (MTK META Utility) such as:
- Samsung Galaxy A02 (SM-A022F, SM-A022F/DS, SM-A022M, SM-A022M/DS, SM-A022G, SM-A022G/DS).
- Samsung Galaxy M02 (SM-M022F, SM-M022F/DS, SM-M022G, SM-M022G/DS).
- Samsung Galaxy A01 Core (SM-A013F, SM-A013F/DS, SM-A013G, SM-A013G/DS, SM-A013M).
Samsung Galaxy M01 Core (SM-M013F, SM-M013F/DS)
- The solution is to download the BIT Revision compliant firmware and Extract the same as (MTK META Utility), then go to the B-Rom tab and select (Write BOOT_SECTION - LUN0/BOOT1) and select the extracted preloader (the big one with 4 MB), DONE.
- Do not try to flash with other tools, it may damage the area (P-GPT) when flashing and fail to make Samsung specifically compatible (P/S-GPT).
- In case if this happens and fails to service with other tools, just disable auth and flash with SPFT only (PRELOADER & LK & EFUSE) of revoked firmware.
The reason is that this chipset (MT6739/MT6757) is quite old (controller chip - quad-core processor based on Cortex-A53 architecture) and it doesn't support dump command eMMC_CID, so it doesn't allow us to find compatible auto preloader Mathematically.
MTK META Utility V60 :
Added Samsung A32 5G USA (A326U) fix bricked (stuck in Boot-ROM port after service or trying to unlock with other tool & (broken/broken) BOOT_REGON (LU0) - USER_PARTITION (P-GPT)).
- 3 files stored in software resources will be used for your device service (LU0 & P-GPT & PIT) to upload to your phone.

Peringatan : - JANGAN gunakan opsi (VIVO NewSEC Read Info) di MTK META Utility dengan perangkat VIVO MTK yang menggunakan chipset Dimensity 5G seperti :(MT6833,MT6877T,MT6891Z,MT6893,MT6895), seperti yang disebutkan dalam versi alat sebelumnya, opsi ini dapat digunakan untuk (M T6765,MT6768,MT67711) saja.
- Jika Anda menggunakan opsi ini dengan SoCs baru, perangkat akan masuk mode BootROM, bahkan pada patch keamanan terbaru (01.09.2022), tetapi berisiko (soft-bata).
- Tampaknya ada kerentanan yang disebabkan oleh menggunakan perintah kustom (Readback) yang digunakan untuk mengunggah (PRELOADER/PGPT), mungkin overflow atau pengecualian SoC, saya tidak tahu apa penyebabnya.
- Jika sudah terjadi dan menggunakan opsi ini dan perangkat Anda masuk ke mode BRom, Anda akan membutuhkan penuh (UFS Dump) dari (USER_PARTITION) untuk di-flash tanpa pre-loader, biarkan pra-loader berkedip setelah memastikan unduhan (USER_PARTITION) berhasil, karena jika Anda flash pre-loader terlebih dahulu dan dengan alasan apapun (USER_PARTITION) Flashing tidak selesai perangkat akan terus me-reboot dalam mode preloader dan Anda tidak dapat menonaktifkan auth atau memaksa BRom dan pengecualian tidak akan terjadi lagi jika Anda mencoba untuk ReadInfo.
- Jika metode di atas tidak berfungsi, Anda hanya dapat mem-flash perangkat dengan (AFTOOL) atau alat apa pun yang menggunakan akses server VIVO resmi.
Important Informations about VIVO devices with MediaTek chipsets :
- VIVO Fused and Patched BootROM again with new security patch (01.08.2022)
- Even (MT6765 & MT6771 & MT6785) SoCs were affected by the custom vendor fixes.
- The OTA update just received 2 days ago.
- Our previous META Utility tool update was prepared a week ago (so please Do NOT try to enter BRom mode if the security is (01.08.2022) or newer, you can check the security patch using our tool (MTK META Utility) with (VIVO New Sec ReadInfo) button to ensure the device updated to the latest security patch or not.
* The security patch changes :
- BRom is completely disabled by fusing.
- Hardware test point is blocked.
- META Mode Locked Down as well.
- AT handler is patched and now it requires authorization.
- Preloader op-code completely changed to fuse the CPU.
- If you (Erased/Modified) the preloader, you can’t fix the device anymore via USB you need to use (JTAG/ISP) and write BOOT1 area in order to get your device working again.
- Currently confirmed only one device with MT6765 and (DEMO mode) enabled, but the patch seems to be generic.
- Preloader mode is still safe to work with, unless it you played around BOOT region’s.
- Means the safest way to deal with VIVO devices now is to use TFM Tool in preloader mode and not try to enable BRom port.
MTK META Utility V55 :
- I have seen a lot of people struggling to jump into BootROM mode for VIVO devices with new security (mt6765, mt6771), so I made a simple solution to Enter/Exit BootROM mode for these devices.
- This feature already implemented in some tools, but not the correct way, they just added the DA file.
- With my method you don’t need to search for preloader from old firmware to enable BRom port or preloader from new firmware package to exit BRom, all operations are automated as usual, to help people operate this kind of tasks as fast as possible
,to exit BRom you need to select the Main preloader file with big size (4MB)
- Added Write PGPT option in BRom mode to fix partition table corruption (Samsung specially dead UFS devices such as A326U, A136U).
- Fixed (===== wait for DA high speed port =====) device back to BRom port after switch to DA port.
- For MT6768 and MT6833P we only managed to find an online server based solution, and it requires BBK-Asia server for remote authentication, and the request cost so we were still trying to find offline solution hopefully we will succeed soon.
- The original preloader file will be saved into program directory (VIVO_EMI) with device RNID/ME_ID(unique MTK identificatior) so you can use it with flashing tools (EMI/Preloader) to initiate DRAM and boot device for R/W operations.
Next task as mentioned (offline solution for VIVO MT6768 - MT6833P) and Xiaomi Redmi 9A/9C Poco M31 Boot device/dram init fail solution.
To clarify the force/exit BootROM process, so developers can apply this type of ideas to the flashing tools to make it easier for users :
- we boot the device into DA mode with the singed Download Agent from VIVO, first we dump the original preloader to be used for DRAM setup later in future tasks and save it into local file with unquie device number such as (MEID - RNID - SoC HRID) then we format the primary boot region aka (BOOT1-A) to lead into USB exception due to missing or corrupted MAGIC header, now we will get bootrom port each time device connected to PC, and we have the original preloader file which saved earlier with the unique device ID, so we can use it for dram init, after finishing the desired operation, we just need to send the original BOOT region, the device will back to original status without downgrade or upgrade pre-loader file, and that’s.
Supported VIVO devices with MT6771 and MT6765 chipsets :

MTK META Utility V52 :
- I noticed a lot of people strangling to unlock bootloader for this model (Redmi 6A (cactus)).
- Added Permanent Bootloader Unlock for Redmi 6A (cactus).
- Note : The Bootloader will be permanently unlocked after performing this operation, the reason is we enable eMMC permanent write protect flag to SECCFG area using the MTK CPU and SBrom Crypto driver to prevent BL re-lock after boot-up.
- We set a small check flag to ensure the device model is (Redmi 6A) the method is risky, so please try to operate with any different model code.
- Added eMMC/UFS health check from BootROM mode.
- The method uses DA setup handler to init the IC and dump
- life_time_est_a
- life_time_est_b
- pre_eol_info
- eMMC/UFS check statically implemented in the DA as well to detect HW faults, could work even in dead DRAM case
& please don't try to operate this method with non-original OEM devices such as Infinix/Tecno, the device might stuck at brom mode after health check and will need to disconnect battery to get brom mode working again.
- Added Dump and parse EXT_CSD registers via BootROM mode (implanted in eMMC/UFS health check function).
- Added Huawei Y9A FRL-L22 Force BRom mode from Upgrade Mode.
- Added Huawei Y9A FRL-L22 Exit BRom mode.
- Fixed VIVO New security (MT6768-MT6833P-MT6853) Read Info only from preloader mode.

MTK META Utility V51 :
- Added Samsung force/exit from for the following models :
- Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite BIT 1 (UL2) :
SM-T225, SM-T220, SM-T225N (MediaTek MT8768T Helio P22T).
* Please don't try to operate this function for these types below :
- Devices with KG (Locked/Active).
- Devices with (sec CTRL status (0)).
- Devices which ends with DL TFN (Tracfone WS carrier)
- If your device isn't supported, just download suitable firmware and extract it with MTK META utility, then add the extracted preloader file into SAMEI folder.
- I guess you all know my next task.
$ - This software is provided 'as-is', without any express or implied warranty.
In no event will the authors be held liable for any damages arising from the use of this software.
MTK META Utility V50 :
I noticed some people corrupted UFS_LU0/EMMC_BOOT1 while trying to exit brom by other tools [They're writing preloader to offset 0x0 instead of (0x1000/0x800)] - WRONG, here is the solution to Exit BootROM for this type.
- Added ability to write (EMMC BOOT1/UFS LU0) via BootROM.
- If you tried to write it as memory using SPFT, you will get (status sec write data not allowed (0xC002000C), but now you can write it easily with MTK META Utility.
- Note, you can write LU1/BOOT2 instead of LU0/BOOT1, it's just a second copy of the preloader needed for this type of cases.
- Increased USB wait timeout to 400000 milliseconds (6.5 minutes).
$ - This software is provided 'as-is', without any express or implied warranty.
In no event will the authors be held liable for any damages arising from the use of this software.
For those who used MTK META Utility and performed Samsung Force BootROM operation :
- If your Samsung phone got bricked due to
(KG Locked/Active/Normal &
Sec CTRL Status (0) & Tracfone) while trying to force brom :
- This type of patching uses WatchDog & power controller and special SoC BIT registers, so :
- Don’t expect any type of Usb fix.
- The only solution is only via ISP - Direct eMMC.
- The solution is to read (BOOT1 in eMMC flash case or LU0 in UFS case).
- Open by HXD editor.
- The first char of the file is (F) - 46.
- If your device uses eMMC memory change the (F) to (E) - for UFS change (F) to (C) and write the file back to the IC, the (E) refers to (EMMC_BOOT) and the (C) refers to (COMBO_BOOT).
- Another solution is to read (BOOT2 in eMMC Flash case or LU1 in UFS case) and write it back to the IC , the readed BOOT2 to BOOT1 and LU2 write to LU0.
- Another solution is to read (boot1/lu0) from working phone with brom mode, then write it to the bricked device via ISP.
- The LU2 and BOOT1 are secondary backup copies of the preloader so it can be used as primary boot region as well.
- BOOT1 is the primary boot region (BOOT-A) in eMMC flash & BOOT2 is the secondary boot region (BOOT-B) in eMMC flash and
LU0 is the primary boot region (BOOT-A) in UFS flash &
LU1 is the secondary boot region (BOOT-B) in UFS flash.
- In MediaTek for eMMC (BOOT1) area content match the (BOOT2) area content &
For UFS (Samsung case Combo Boot mode is used) so the primary and secondary regions (LU0 & LU1) doesn’t match - the (BOOT-A) start with (COMBO_BOOT) and (BOOT-B) starts with (UFS_BOOT) if you write (LU2 to LU0) you might face dm-verity corruption, but can be easy fixed by write firmware.
- We have strongly warned to not operate this method for this type of secured devices , but people ignored the warnings and tried it anyway, always remember considering take the developers advice because they knows what the software supposed to do.
Thanks.
MTK META Utility V49 :
- Fix Samsung MTK force/exit BootROM without TP for :
Samsung Galaxy A32 4G (SM-A325M/SM-A325F) - with MT6768/69T - eMMC.
The issue caused by dm interface reset, the following message appears and prevent reboot for the second session to complete preloader patch process :
- (● Rebooting device...
Write error 5:{Access is denied},(send,mtk_ubl\mtkcommio.cpp,304))
Now fixed.
