In this tutorial, I'll be explaining how to manually install VCOM drivers on a
00:32
Windows PC. Now, VCOM driver is very
important especially when you want to see SP flash tool
00:38
because without your VCOM drivers, you can't use SP flash. You'll
00:43
usually notice that when you try flashing a file or doing a readback using SP
00:48
flash tool without VCOM drivers, once you switch off your phone and
00:52
connect it to the PC, all you'll see is the phone charging. That means you don't have VCOM
00:58
drivers. So in this guide, I'll be explaining how to install VCOM drivers manually to
01:04
enable your phone and SP Flash tool communicate effectively. Now, if you're using a Windows 8 (or 10) PC
01:09
you'll want to disable signature verification. I will not be going into
01:13
that here but just go to our forum, search for how to disable signature verification on
01:18
Windows 8 before you can install your VCOM drivers. So, the first thing you'll want to do is to
01:25
open Device Manager so I'll search for Device Manager. Alright!
01:35
In device manager, what you'll want to do is click any of these items
01:41
then click on Action then Add legacy hardware. Click on
01:49
Next, you select Install the hardware that I manually select from a
01:55
list that is advanced, Click Next, here you just go ahead and click Next.
02:01
Here you click Have Disk. Now, in this box, you click on Browse then you go to the
02:11
VCOM folder here. Now, its basically the same method when you are
02:19
trying to manually install a driver. All you have to do is locate the .inf file
02:24
for that driver you're trying to install but in this case, what we are treating is VCOM
02:29
driver. If I was treating another driver, all I have to do is go through the entire
02:33
driver folder, look for a .INF file and wherever I see that .INF file which
02:40
is the setup information file, I just select it in this window here but in this
02:46
case, we are installing a VCOM driver so I know where my .inf file is for
02:51
the VCOM, I know the location
02:53
for the VCOM .INF file so I just go straight to it. Now, in this case
02:59
it's in the Mediatek folder, Drivers, USB VCOM driver. I'm using a Windows 8 so I'll
03:07
want to use the Windows 7 (.inf). Ensure you select the correct one for your OS here.
03:12
I'll select the Windows 7. Now, I'm using a 64-bit PC so I select the one for 64. If you're
03:17
using a 32, you select 32
03:22
and click Open then OK. Now, you'll want to select Mediatek Preloader
03:31
USB VCOM Port in this step and then you click Next and then Next. Wait for the
03:39
driver to finish installing and click Finish --------------------------
