You are already close to flashing your device ,only few steps ahead remaining, follow up

You have your flashing tool  ready, load your firmware to the tool.

Now in the firmware folder you downloaded, open it and you will see files inside and a notepad document called a scatter file. Now, go back to your flashing tool and load that scatter file. To load the scatter file, click on “scatter loading.” This will take you to where the notepad document is located. If it doesn’t, find it in the “firmware” folder you extracted. Now don’t be surprised if you don’t see the other files you saw before in that folder. It is because it is only the scatter file that is identified
