As the name sounds, a backup is a copy of an original stuff(in our case, a firmware) which can be used to replace the original if lost, corrupted or no longer working. Having a backup of your MTK Android device is as important as charging your phone when it becomes low.
In this tutorial, I am going to show you how to backup any MTK device’s firmware(FP or SP) without too many codes or troubles. In case you are reluctant, let me tell you some reasons why you need to have a backup of your device.
Reasons why you should backup your MTK device stock firmware are:
A backup is like an after life, what ever happens to your device, you can restore it to normalcy with the backup.- You won’t download large files for your phone to fix firmware issues.
- You can also use your backup on another phone of the same model.
- Should in case your device gets infected by a malware via the internet or somewhere else, you can safely fix it.
- You will feel comfortable with tweaking your Android to any level because you have something to fall back to in case something goes wrong.
How To Backup MTK(Mediatek) Device Firmware Via Miracle Box
- Install MediaTek USB VCOM drivers if you haven’t done so.
- Download Miracle Box software latest version 2.48 if you have the box and dongle/key – Download
- Alternatively, you can use Miracle Box Cracked 2.27A which can work without the box itself and doesn’t require any network connection. – Download (Archive password – bdjakriztek )
STEPS TO BACKUP MTK FIRMWARE VIA MIRACLE BOX
- Launch the Miracle box via the shortcut on your desktop(Miracle box Truely For China Mobile) or the Loader.exe if you are using Miracle box cracked 2.27A.
- The Miracle box software should now load after a while with a lot of tabs like MTK, SPD, Qualcomm, CoolSand/RDA, Samsung, Huawei, Android, Mstar, Blackberry etc.
- Click on MTK, tick Read, and then select Save as scatter file. This is important because you will also get a scatter file.txt which will allow you flash the firmware via SP Flashtool or other compatible softwares. If you don’t tick save as scatter, the entire firmware backup will be in a single .bin format.
- Next Click on Start Button.
- Miracle box will now display Waiting For USB port. This is the time to turn off your device or remove and reinsert the battery.
- Connect your MTK device to the PC via a good USB data cable. On some phones like Oppo, you might press down either of the Volume buttons before connect the USB cable.
- Miracle box should now quickly detect your phone and will now pop up another screen with all the partitions and the files available for backup.
- You can mark all the files excluding USERDATA. If you just wish to backup the recovery or preloader or just the NVRAM, UBOOT, BOOT or whatever you wish,you can just mark them and then click on OK.
- Miracle box will now ask you to choose where you would like to save the backup. I would recommend you save it on your desktop for easy access.
- Click the OK button when you are done.
- Backup should start immediately according to the partition files you earlier selected.
- When the backup is done, you will see a success message at the end of the logs and the counter will be at 100%.
- You can now go to the location you selected to save the backup which will contain all the files you selected and a scatter file too.
- And you just backed up you MediaTek phone’s firmware using Miracle box.

hello admin the archive passeword does not work
Password is bdjakriztek
Make sure it’s all in small letters.
it work admin the password is good thank you for all but can i chat with you via gmail
It’s okay.
Sir does this method work for android 6.0.1.(marshmallow) device (itel s31)
Yes, it should work.
it will work even if the usb debug is closed?
Is this process Roots the device at any point of time or Voids warranty?
Is the device needs to be rooted before starting the process.
I’ll try this if it works for my new phone or not and tell.
Can we do this same (saving just scatter file without rooting) with MTK Droid Root Tools also?
Please reply me.
Thanks for this.
It doesn’t root your device at any point or voids warranty, you don’t need to be rooted to start the process, but some functions would require rooting the device.
You can just save scatter file without rooting.
Okay,
Miracle Box worked.
But in scatter file which I extracted through Miracle Box, Preloader partition and PGPT partition are having the same start addresses. Why is this happened. Or it didn’t extracted my phone’s original scatter file.
My phone is just “Panasonic Eluga Ray”
I found that it is having MT6737.
But it is showing that MT6735 in scatter file.
What is the wrong happened.
Okay, Thanks. Miracle Box worked.
My phone is just only “Panasonic Eluga Ray”(released in 2017) and I found that it is having MT6737 chipset.
I extracted scatter file and saved it.
But in scatter file I found that Preloader and PGPT partitions are having the same start addresses. Why is this happened?
Or it didn’t extract the original scatter file.
But it is showing that MT6735 in scatter file.
What is the wrong that happened.
Waiting for your reply
Was the backup completed successfully with all the partitions?
Yes, successfully backed up all partitions
Hi
In cases where there is an error maybe 4 files before a complete reading process, can i just reconnect and continue with the files which where not loaded?
If there’s any error, it would be safer to redo the backup process again. Although you can use single files that were backed up successfully and completely.

What were you trying to do, get a backup or just the scatter file?
I completed backup successfully with scatter file included in it.
I am asking about why is it showing MT6735 instead of MT6737
It happens most times, but that shouldn’t be a problem. Try to read info with Miracle box and see if it shows the same thing.
The pop up for the files to save and for where to save are not coming plz help
It should pop up, unless you are missing a process.
Please, can I use the file for another phone the same model
Yes you can. Just make sure the two phones have the same build number and don’t always flash the preloader.bin unless its a dead phone.
Oh .
I’m just finding this Great tutorial.
Can I use it to backup a my MTK device that is already in a boot loop?
Do I need to exclude certain partition?
I’m looking for a way to get the Firmware and reinstall with SpFlashTool.
Will it work that way?
You can backup your device current firmware before flashing so that you will be safe in case the firmware you flash is incompatible. You can backup others and skip the system.img or system.bin file.
