![]() ![]() If the phone is connected while it is powered off, then a USB device with the VID/PID pair 0e8d:2000 and the description string MediaTek Inc. Getting the dumps is done through a different process that involves a good deal of messing around with USB devices. This is the USB device that the Android SDK tools talk to. When the phone is up and running Android, it reports itself as a HTC (High Tech Computer Corp.) Android Phone with the USB Vendor/Product ID pair 0bb4:0c03. The tool's "Download" tab is concerned with getting flash images into the phone whereas getting flash dumps out is achieved through the "Read back" tab. Anyway, I also grabbed a zip archive containing drivers for MediaTek SoC's in the 65xx series from the site. The site looks a bit dodgy in a back-alley phone repair shop kinda way, but it also looks like it has some kind of legit affiliation to MediaTek. The most legit-looking one I found is called Smart Phone Flash Tool (or SPFlashTool in some filenames) and is available from this Russian-language site. I mentioned in the first post that tools exist that can be used to write/read flash for this family of devices. Getting the dumps was a process of trial and error the first time around and I made the mistake of not documenting what worked and what didn't, meaning I had to go through all that pain a second time to write this post.
