Hello,
Blackview BV6000 phone stopped receiving/sending calls after Android 7 update. Tried to flash older ROM version to fix this by downloading ROM from needrom + flash tools. Used Format All + Download setting, which I used before without issues. After the operation was over (program said Download OK), the phone stopped working. Does not turn on, doesn't light up when connected to USB. How to proceed?

The Android 7.0 is not stable, would you like to return to Android 6.0? Link for Android 6.0

I have managed to go back to Android 6 by trying to flash new firmware while phone is connected to computer USB, while using SP flash tool. I also managed to reset IMEI (which is what caused phone to not work in the first place) with SN Tool ver. 1.1604.
However, I have different problem now: the screws from the SIM/SD card cover broke while I was screwing them in...I've never had this happen with any other phone. Warranty is void at this point, but I have to say that the backside screws are of bad quality. Ordered a new set of battery cover + screws to hopefully fix this.
