Swipe Elite Note Firmware Flash File Download [Stock Rom]

The Swipe Elite Note was a feature-rich budget smartphone for its time, boasting a MediaTek MT6735M chipset, 3GB of RAM, and a unique built-in IR blaster. However, despite the solid hardware, a recurring complaint across Indian tech forums and user reviews was a persistent screen flickering issue that would appear after a few months of use. This problem, often indicating a software driver conflict, could not always be solved with a simple factory reset. Flashing this official stock firmware is the definitive method to resolve the display issue by reinstalling the original, stable graphics and display drivers from the factory.

Why Flash This Specific Firmware?

• Fix Screen Flickering and Display Issues: This is the most targeted reason to flash. By reinstalling the original kernel and display drivers (lk.bin), this firmware resolves the software conflicts that cause the screen to flicker or show artifacts.

• Solve Bootloop or “Hang on Logo”: If your Elite Note is stuck on the Swipe logo and won’t boot, flashing this scatter file is the standard and most effective solution to fix the soft brick.
• Repair “Camera Failed” Error: Reinstalls the complete camera HAL and driver stack, fixing the common “cannot connect to camera” error that plagues devices with corrupted software.

Some of the Bug / Firmware Fixes

• Contains the stable, factory-tested display drivers that eliminate the screen flickering bug reported by numerous users.
• Restores the IR blaster service and associated kernel modules, ensuring the remote control functionality works as intended.
• Fixes software corruption that leads to the device freezing or getting stuck in a bootloop after a factory reset.

Crucial Prerequisites Before Flashing

• Backup All Data: Flashing will completely erase all personal data from your phone’s internal storage.
• Charge Your Phone: Ensure your battery is charged to at least 60% to avoid shutdowns during the process.
• Install MediaTek Drivers: You must install MTK VCOM USB drivers on your Windows PC.
• Download the Flashing Tool: You will need the SP Flash Tool.
• Use a Quality USB Cable: For a stable connection, use a reliable micro USB cable.
