mtkclient-installer

I made this to simplify tech support work I’ve been doing on XDA discord server in case I ever become inactive there. This code for the most part will be self-updating as it searches for latest releases rather being stuck on a specific version.

Only for Windows because I can’t test on mac/linux

Installation

Via .exe installer (Recommended if you really don’t know how to even install a driver)

• Click on the latest release on the right side panel

• Click mtkclient_installer.exe to download it

• Drag it on somewhere you want to install mtkclient on

• Run the application by double-clicking it
• Follow the script instructions

Via Python (Recommended if you already know basic file comprehension)

• Download python
• Open python installation wizard, click Add as PATH on the bottom
• Open main.py script

• Download it

• Move main.py on your downloads folder to another folder you want to install mtkclient on
• Run main.py via opening a command prompt on the same folder (right-click, open in terminal for win 11 users) and then running python main.py (Or probably just run it by double clicking the python file)
• Follow the instructions given

What will this install

• Python (Latest, 64/32 bit)
• winfsp (Latest)
• usbdk (Latest)
• git (Latest, 64/32 bit)
• Mediatek drivers (Static)
• mtkclient (Latest)

Once you’ve installed all these, it will automatically open a command prompt on mtkclient folder so you can just run the command be done with it.

Todo for v1.5

• Finding a reason to versionbump and raise my commits per day
• Find a codename for v1.5
