Recently we were trying to flash MTK device with SWD after sales tool and it pop up a warring message “Checksum.ini doesn’t exist, please generate it first!” So we used checksum.ini software on windows pc to create MTK checksum file and worked fine without any issue.
After that you are free to flash your device without having any checksum file missing error. Just download checksum.exe tool and create new checksum file for MTK firmware. Good thing is that it’s not a big task because MTK checksum gen tool is available to generate checksum file with the help of scatter firmware. To resolve this type of MTK tool’s error, you need to supportable checksum file for you device. Using this online tool you can easily generate SHA256 hashes.When You Should Use Checksum.ini File for MTK Devices?ĭuring the firmware flashing or FRP unlock using any MTK tool, if you are facing Checksum.ini doesn’t exist, please generate it first error that means checksum.ini is missing in your firmware folder. SHA-256 is one of the successor hash functions to SHA-1,and is one of the strongest hash functions available. You can compare hashes of your file and original one which is usually provided in the website you are getting data or the file from. For example if you download something you can easily check if data has not changed due to network errors or malware injection. SHA256 algorithm can be still used for making sure you acquired the same data as the original one. Some years ago you would protect your passwords from hackers by storing SHA256 encrypted password in the your data base. So it is no longer recommended to use it for password protection or other similar use cases. With the newest hardware (CPU and GPU) improvements it is become possible to decrypt SHA256 algorithm back. This makes it suitable for checking integrity of your data, challenge hash authentication, anti-tamper, digital signatures, blockchain. SHA256 algorithm generates an almost-unique, fixed size 256-bit (32-byte) hash. Even if only one symbol is changed the algorithm will produce different hash value. If you would like to compare two sets of raw data (source of the file, text or similar) it is always better to hash it and compare SHA256 values. A cryptographic hash is like a signature for a data set. The SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) is one of a number of cryptographic hash functions.
