The ZTE Blade V2020 (model 8010) is a mid-range 4G smartphone that offers a modern design with a large 6.53-inch hole-punch display and a versatile quad-camera system. This specific variant, sold in the Russian market, is powered by the octa-core UNISOC SC9863A chipset. This guide provides the official Russian stock ROM (.pac file), which is essential for unbricking the device, fixing software bugs, removing a Google FRP lock, or restoring the phone to its original factory condition.

How to Flash the Stock Firmware
Flashing the stock ROM onto your ZTE Blade V2020 requires a Windows PC and the SPD Upgrade Tool. The process involves installing the correct UNISOC drivers, loading the .pac firmware file from the download into the tool, and then connecting your powered-off phone while holding the Volume Down key to initiate the flash.

Device-Specific Troubleshooting for ZTE Blade V2020
- Correct Driver Installation: The most common failure point is incorrect drivers. If the tool doesn’t see your phone, you must install the Spreadtrum/UNISOC drivers, which often requires you to disable ‘Driver Signature Enforcement’ in Windows first.
- Using the “Boot Key”: To initiate the flash, power the phone off completely. Press and hold the Volume Down button, and *while holding it*, connect the phone to your PC. The tool should then detect it and begin the process.
- Fixing Google FRP Lock: If you’re locked out of your phone by Google’s Factory Reset Protection (FRP), flashing this stock ROM will perform a complete wipe and remove the locked account.
- CRITICAL – 4G (UNISOC) vs. 5G (MediaTek) Model: The “ZTE Blade V2020” name was used for two different phones. This firmware is for the 4G model (8010) with a UNISOC chipset. There is also a ‘ZTE Blade V2020 5G’ with a MediaTek Dimensity chipset. They are not compatible. Ensure this is the correct model before flashing.
FAQs
Q1. What is a .pac file?
A .pac file is a packed firmware file used for Spreadtrum/UNISOC chipsets. It contains all the necessary partitions—system, boot, recovery, modem, etc.—in a single, integrated file for flashing.
Q2. Can I use this Russian ROM on my phone from another country?
It is not recommended. This firmware is specifically for the Russian region. Flashing it on a device from another country could cause issues with cellular network connectivity (no signal) due to different modem configurations.
Q3. Will this process erase my data?
Yes. Flashing the stock ROM with the SPD Upgrade Tool will perform a full factory reset and completely wipe all personal data, apps, and settings from your device.
Q4. My phone is stuck on the ZTE logo. Will this fix it?
Yes. A bootloop is a very common software issue that a clean flash of the official stock ROM will fix by completely resetting the operating system.
