How to install MTK device drivers

It is a common problem that after installing android device drivers the computer can't detect the device. It is normal for most of the Chinese and non brand devices. You have to go through some specific steps to make your computer recognize the device. Today I am going to guide you on how you can install your MTK device drivers successfully. Driver download link is at the end of this post. 

First of all you have to start your computer in "device driver signature disabled mode".

Go to start menu and select restart while keep pressing your shift button. Now select troubleshoot. From the next page select advanced options. Then select Startup Settings. After that click on Restart button. While booting up your computer will ask you for selecting startup settings. Press 7 and you are all set. This may be hard to understand, so I took a video of the total process. Check it out.


Now your PC is ready for your device driver installation. Most of the time the driver softwares will come with your Custom ROM or Stock ROM. First install ADB-Driver. Press "Y" for each question asked.

Now we need to install Android CDC drivers. For this first go to device manager. To go to device manager first go to my computer > Right click > Manage > Device Manager. Click on any icon, then go to Action > Add legacy hardware. Click next, then select Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced), again click next. Now click on any icon and then click next. Click on have disk and locate the "Android_Gadget_CDC_driver.inf" file from your hard disk drive. Click ok and then select Android Gadget VCOM Driver and click next. Continue clicking next until windows asks for verifying this software and click Install this driver software anyway. Similarly install "mtk_sp_usb2ser.inf" and we are done. Now we can use SP Flash Tools for installing ROM on our devices.
