The tool operates by communicating directly with the device's bootloader using the MediaTek VCOM drivers. Its primary utilities include:

: The safest mode for standard updates; it only writes the selected partitions.

: Flashing typically removes all personal data; creating a full ROM dump or backup is strongly recommended before proceeding.

: Enables selective flashing of specific components like the system , recovery , boot , or preloader .

: Users must manually install MediaTek VCOM drivers to ensure the computer recognizes the phone in Preloader mode.

: Users must ensure the firmware is an exact match for their specific model variant to avoid "hard bricking" the device.
