Greetings, my name is Ismael. I am currently building my own tool with MediaTek support based on mtkclient. It has helped me a lot. I already have this module implemented along with my Qualcomm module. Right now, I am having difficulty when working with devices that are preloader, but for those that are BROM, I can do FRP, flash, and DEMSA. However, if the device is MediaTek preloader, that's where I am stuck in that area. |

Why I'm facing the WHELL build faild, Project.toml ? How to fix it? (By VS code? Which components i actually need to install? What after installation?) |
|
install visual code and c++ extensions, then building should work fine. |
|
C++ extensions? Exactly which extensions? (Provide a screenshot of possible 🙌🙏) |
|
There is only one install option that has c++ in visual studio |
|
Did you find any solution? im also stuck on 'WHELL build faild, Project.toml' part even after installing VSC C++ build tools. |

Can u add support for mtk6878V_B/TZA (realme p4 5g) in the mtkclient tool |
|
Dear all, |
|
With unlocking, data will be wiped. That's generic Android policy. Either real userdata wipe or generated keys won't match anymore due to root of trust. And no, focus of mtkclient isn't unlocking per se, it's meant for flash op and unbricking devices. Unlock is just for devices that vendors no longer maintain to keep them secure by flashing custom roms. |
Yeah but in realms/oppo devices I heard that they are bringing anti rollback thing which I think will make unlocking BL even harder and I don't really like realme ui and if possible it would be cool if u could add support for realme p4 |
|
You tried - fastboot oem unlock |
|
what is fastboot oem unlock? and where is the best place to download it safely? |
Realme requires bootloader unlocking through their app, while Oppo simply doesn't provide fastboot access. As far as I know, Oppo can only be officially unlocked in China or somewhere like that. I created my own method for that. which is completely universal and depends on the capabilities of mtkclient. I usually thought that with OnePlus everything is much simpler, but recently, using the example of the OnePlus 10R, I learned that OnePlus can also have blocked fastboot, using the example of Oppo But we've strayed from the topic. If someone needs to remove the lock password without losing data, they should look into forensic detective programs. Oxygen Forensics Detective does this, but it has a price tag to match. |
Yeah but now realme doesn't provide the deep testing apks |
|
@Shocked-Cat , (install & seup platform tools)bthen connect the phone test (adb devices) , then run;- adb shell rm/data/system/gesture.key Hopefully it will delete the whole .key file |
|
Why should USB debugging work? It's nonsense. |
|
hello bro |
|
those keys won't help you with that. |
oppo vivo xiaomi only need MEID |
|
@bkerler , really how to dump those keys? (It's not supported in MTKclient, i think...) |
|
If you want to know how things work, see android.com homepage how the security is implemented. Modern devices have a secure element that protects the user content uaing the user password. Mtkclient does not support attacking the secure element and won't do that, also it's not able to do that right now. Also it is not possible to extract any hw key from the device as it is fused into the device. All current devices derive their keys based on hw crypto (multiple layers including flash encryption) and the user password. We do not want to promote user data theft or illegal abuse. There are commercial tools like oxygen that do these things, we won't do that. |

Hello, my name is Ian. Ex-IT support - servers & backup - now retired (I started with CP/M!!). No android experience before, but I'm finding mtkclient very useful for recovering some 6580 tablets - so thank you very much, Bjorn |
|
Thanks for your reply. |
|
Another thing - what is the function of the --preloader argument? Does it declare a preloader in order to get data that is used elsewhere in the code, or is it just to name an output file when writing or dumping? |
|
The --preloader argument tells mtkclient your preloader for successful DRAM configuration. You should have replaced the name specified in the command with the actual name of your preloader. Can you send me the preloader you want to flash? |
|
Hi, and thanks for your help. I'd like to find out how to push that back onto a bricked Archos that I've run wf flash.bin on. |

Well, after a bit more thought, I decided it should be this, and it works - |

Just an update on this: |
|
Hello, I am an undeniably strange person. I have a Linux and programming background and probably wouldn't be asking a question here if it weren't for some unfortunate life circumstances. Unfortunately, I don't have access to a usable computer upon which I can install USB drivers, just access to some library computers, as well as 2 phones. The phones are Moto G 2025's (mt6835), and I wish to copy the data from the first over to the second (since the first has a broken screen) without having to use some sort of Google migration. I have Termux installed on my first phone and can even access the other phone with ADB over USB, but am having trouble getting mtkclient to work properly through Termux, let alone getting it to access the other's BROM (I realize these were probably never designed to go together, but this is probably my last option). Is there any possible way for me to use mtkclient to access my second phone through the first? If not, what can I do to make it so? I have enough free time to experiment/develop something, I think. |
