3) Download drivers for firmware

4) Run FlashTool.exe or FlashTool64.exe depending on the operating system. In the program window, click on the lightning icon, select “Flashmode” and click “OK.” In the next window, select the downloaded firmware “X8 Shakira E15i …”, on the right, check only “Clear user data” and “Wape Cache”, and click “OK.”

5) We connect the switched off phone via USB with the “Back” key pressed (it is on the right). If the drivers are installed correctly, the firmware process will automatically start, we are waiting for its completion. When the message “Please unplug and start your phone” appears, disconnect the phone from the computer and turn it on.

That’s it, the firmware is installed.
