zip corrupted how to do??

Please be specific. Exactly which link has a corrupted file? I have tested both the SuperSU and the TWRP download and they are fine. Do you mean the SP Flash Tool archive?

Did it work with MT6737m?
My phone is MT6737m android 6.0 (Space MTK Tool said that).
But when I try read it with Miracle Box. I received a backup bin pack with scatter is MT6735 ?? I dont know why! I modify this scatter file to readback on SP Flash Tool, and I have to change info from mt6735 to mt6737m for SP Flash Tool read...
But I have no ideas for port custom recovery. I follow your TUT [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]
But when I press Download and plug the (turned offf) phone . SPFT say Error: ?? (0x3)
Any ideas???

Absolutely not !

Absolutely not !

Thanks. That's too bad, M8 Pro seems to be a nice phone and can be bought for as low as $79.9 @ gearbest, but without root is almost as good as a paperweight.
