  1. Download the MSM Flash Tool as guided in step 2 and keep it anywhere preferable for you on your computer or laptop.

  4. After doing that process you will see the Licence Activation message in a window, and that means you have activated the tool.

Step 6: Now you will need to download the stock ROM of the phone you want to flash, you can get it here.

Step 7: You will need to extract the flash file after you have downloaded it.

Step 8: Now you need to run the flash tool as an administrator.

Step 9: After that, you will see an option to load the flash file.

Step 10: Now turn off the Oppo device and boot it into factory mode, by pressing the volume up key.

Step 11: Now connect the device to the computer or laptop with a good USB cable, preferable a new one or the original USB cable.
