MediaTek identity crisis!
DooGee Titans2 DG700 loses it's identity!
Very new to Smart Phones etc. Updated my phone to Lollipop 5.0 successfully with SP_MulitPortFlashTool Build number Android5.0-R15-2015_02_26
Got a notification for a new OTA update a few days ago. The file downloaded, unzipped and the phone restarted. Checked for updates and the same file was recommended. When I checked the build date it was unchanged. Android5.0-R15-2015_02_26
I downloaded the DooGee R16 update and tried to update via the SP_MulitPortFlashTool. Wouldn't work either as the DG was not recognized.
So I started the downloading and installing of drivers. I have been using LinuxMint for about 7 years now so just working on Windows is a challenge. I know how crappy Windows really is.
After much frustration I noticed that the phone and the SD card were being recognized as 'Linux File-CD Gadget'.
When I plug my phones into the PC on Linux it just tells me what it is. No driver challenge.
I had DLoaded SP_FlashTools for Linux. Got that up and running and plugged the phone in. No luck. The phone is being recognized as 'Linux File-CD Gadget' on Linux as well. When I change the USB options to camera, media, cd the icons come up as 'DG700 Camera' etc. I tried resetting the phone with no luck. SP_FlashTools will not recognize the DG700 and therefore will not flash a new rom.
The phone is fully functional - just cannot re-flash.
