MTS, like any other operator, offers its customers various models of smartphones for little money. A prerequisite for purchasing a cheap phone is the purchase of MTS tariffs. Each device is locked exclusively to the operator that offers it. It's not convenient, but there is a way out. You can reflash your purchase and get a fully capable smartphone. Let's look at how to do this using the example of one of the phones from MTS.

And so, we’ll tell you how to update the MTS Smart Race 4G firmware, because this can help significantly improve the technical characteristics of your smartphone.

SP Flash Tool

The most common method today is to use a special tool SP FLASH TOOL. You can download it at .

The main feature of the program is the ability to flash any device with MTK (MediaTek) processors. Version 5.0 allows you to flash the latest phone models.

SP Flash Tool allows you to “revive” even a completely incapacitated victim of unsuccessful actions (“brick”). Among other things, the program is easy to use. All actions are performed in three steps.

What is needed for the process

  1. Smartphone with MTK processor.
  2. Computer.
  3. Drivers for smartphones for the existing operating system.

If the first two points are obviously available, then the archive with the files must be searched. Downloading firmware from unverified sources is extremely dangerous. You can turn your smart race into a brick. Today, the most reliable resource from which files can be downloaded is the w3bsit3-dns.com forum. In particular, you can download the firmware for MTS smart race 4G.

First you need to install the drivers for your smart race. Attention, MTS Race must be turned off and connected to the computer!

  1. Open Device Manager (right mouse button on the Start button).

  1. Find an unknown device. If the drivers are already installed, it will not appear. Right-click your device and select "Update driver"

  1. Click on the link "Search this computer".

  1. Press "Browse and select the downloaded driver file on disk".

After this, the driver for Race will be installed and you can begin the next stage.

Install and run the SP Flash Tool. Go to the Downloading tab, click the “Choose” button. Select the downloaded text file that has “scatter” in its name.

After this, a list will appear - check all the boxes. Disconnect your phone from your computer. Check that the charge must be at least 50%. Better charge it to full.

Select "Firmware Upgrade" from the drop-down list. Click the "Download" button.

A process begins that cannot be interrupted. When completed, a green check mark will appear. After this, you need to turn on the smartphone and wait up to 15 minutes.

The ability to connect a laptop or PC to the Internet using a modem, from anywhere, without being tied to a home network, is in constant demand among subscribers. By providing the equipment necessary for this within the tariff plan, operators prudently update its firmware only for their SIM cards. But what to do if during operation you decide to change the operator, but have no desire to buy a new device? In this article we will look at how you can flash an MTS modem for all SIM cards.

Unlocking HUAWEI modems

In order to flash an MTS modem, you need to change its program to the universal version. Finding it won’t be difficult, just enter the equipment model in a search engine and follow the links provided. In this case, the device software is completely replaced, and at the end we will get a modem without the pre-installed MTS Connect shell. Some universal programs contain basic connection profiles and after installing the firmware you can immediately access the Internet, but with others you will have to configure the connection profile manually. However, the setup process is very simple and will not cause difficulties for most subscribers.

The entire setup process can be divided into several stages:

  1. We create a profile name, by default the name of the operator used is written.
  2. In the dialing number field, write *99#.
  3. Login – mts or beeline, when connecting to Tele2 or Megafon, leave the field empty.
  4. The password is the same as the login, including for Megafon and Tele2.
  5. We indicate the access point; depending on the planned operator, there may be the following options: Internet.teleru, Internet.mts.ru, Internet.beeline.ru, Internet (Megafon).

After these simple steps, you will have a device in your hands that can work in the cellular network of any telecom operator. This eliminates the need to purchase additional equipment when moving to another operator.

For those MTS subscribers who do not want to deal with changing the firmware of their devices for fear of receiving a device with system errors, there is a safer way - unlocking using a code. There are many applications on the Internet that allow you to find out the unlock code for your modem. To do this, you must enter the IMEI number indicated on the equipment itself or its packaging. After this, you can insert the SIM card of the operator you need into it and enter the resulting combination of characters in the window that opens. The result of this solution to the issue will be a modem that works with the MTS Connect shell, but is designed for all SIM cards.


Unlocking ZTE modems


Previously, the DC-UNLOCKER program was widely used to flash a ZTE device, but after the introduction of a paid application, we had to look for other options. One of them is the UNLOCKER application, which is not difficult to find on thematic forums and websites. In order to unlock the MTS modem, you need to perform several simple steps:

  1. Download the UNLOCKER application for ZTE.
  2. We insert the modem without a SIM card into the connector of the computer or laptop.
  3. We install the factory software and drivers from the modem.
  4. Close the standard ZTE program.
  5. Turn off the Internet connection and the antivirus program.
  6. Launch the UNLOCKER application.
  7. In the new window, click the Unlock button and wait for the flashing process to complete.
  8. When a positive result is achieved, a Done notification will appear. After this, you can remove the device from the PC connector. Insert another SIM card. Unlocked equipment will work with any cellular operator.

Unblocking a modem operating on a 4G network is not difficult; the process of unlocking does not depend on the communication standard used.

Paid firmware method


For those who do not want to interfere with the device software and risk entering generated passwords, there is a third way to flash MTS equipment to work with SIM cards of any operators. This option is the most convenient and safe, but, as is usually the case, it requires payment for each use. Purchasing multiple access to program functions is much more profitable than purchasing one-time flashing.

The DC-UNLOCKER application will help you easily and safely reflash your modem even for an inexperienced user of a PC and computer programs. Let's take a step-by-step look at the process of unlocking.

  1. We go to the website of the program developer, writing dc-unlocker.com in the address bar of the browser.
  2. Click on the Download button at the top of the page.
  3. Next, select DC-UNLOCKER client and Download again.
  4. In the drop-down list, find the series of your modem and download the installation file.
  5. Install and launch the program.
  6. In the left field we select the manufacturer, in our case ZTE modems.
  7. We indicate the modem model, but it is recommended to set automatic detection.
  8. Click the Unlock button in the right field of the program.
  9. After notification of successful completion of the process, you can use the communication services of any operator.

It is important to remember that the entire unlocking process is carried out with the modem installed, but without an MTS SIM card. When the device is unlocked, you can insert a SIM card from any other cellular operator and access the Internet.

Most mobile device users often do not understand what firmware or flashing is and, in fact, what is it for?

MTS 970 is a compact smartphone for simple tasks

The fact is that the operation of any smartphone, telephone, tablet and other equipment is ensured by special software that allows you, for example, to make calls, access the Global Network, watch your favorite movies or listen to popular music. That is, this is a kind of foundation on which all mobile software rests.

In this regard, there is a need to update this software (operating system version), which eliminates some problems that were not previously identified by the company when releasing the product, and also adds many interesting functions. Therefore, today we will talk about how to flash or reflash an MTS 970 phone. First, you need to decide what exactly you need to do:

  1. If you just want to check for available updates that MTS provides and download them if possible, then you need the “OS Update” paragraph.
  2. If you have a firmware file or want to download and install it, then you need the “Firmware” paragraph. To flash the firmware, you will need a computer or laptop with Internet access, as well as a USB cable.

OS update

So, to officially update the operating system version of the MTS 970 phone, you need to do the following:

  1. Connect to an available wireless network (preferably with unlimited traffic).
  2. Go to the device settings (in the main menu).
  3. Now we look for “About device”, where there is an “Update” tab. Here we will need a tab called “Software Update”, click the “Update” button. If your smartphone says that updates have already been installed on your device, it means that there are no available firmwares for your device. That is, you have the latest available version of the operating system installed. Otherwise, you and I agree to download the updates and wait for it to finish.
  4. During the update, the device may reboot several times. Therefore, we don’t panic right away, but just be patient. When everything is ready, you will see the home screen of the device. Congratulations! You have successfully completed the task.

Firmware using SP Flash Tool

  1. First, download the driver for your phone and install it on your computer.
  2. Next, download the SP Flash Tool program itself and run it. Please note that you need to unpack the archive into a separate folder, the name of which must be in English without symbols, numbers or spaces.
  3. Be sure to download the firmware for your device to a separate folder on your computer or laptop. The requirements for the name of the created folder are the same as in the previous paragraph.
  4. If you have an antivirus and Firewall running, then disable these services, as they can negatively affect the flashing process.
  5. Now, using the power button, turn off the MTS 970 phone. After that, connect it to your personal computer using the original USB cable, preferably from the device box.
  6. We wait until the device is recognized by the computer system. Only after this can you run the Flash Tool program as an administrator on your PC.
  7. Now in the program window, click on “Scatter-loading”, after which you will need to select from the downloaded archive with the firmware (third point) a text document where the word scatter is mentioned in the file name. This will allow the utility to download the necessary firmware files itself.
  8. Now is a very important point: in order to avoid device breakdowns, you need to uncheck the PRELOADER and DSP_BL items in the program window. These are the first two tabs. Do not ignore this recommendation under any circumstances.
  9. So, all preparatory work ends here, and you can press the key in the top menu of the Download utility. You need to disconnect your phone from your computer, then connect it again. After this, the process of flashing the smart MTS 970 will begin, the completion of which you must wait for. Please note that the phone is always turned off.
  10. The successful completion of the device firmware process will be indicated by a pop-up window with a green circle. Then you can disconnect the gadget from your laptop or PC, remove the battery from the MTS 970 phone, then install it again, only after that you can finally turn on the device. The activation process may take some time, so you will need to gain strength and patience. We are not panicking or trying to ruin anything.
