Description
"The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried" - Stephen McCranie
The MediaTek gadget repair space can feel daunting, especially when jargon is flying around like bullets. What helps you grow and stand out are:
1. How many mistakes you've made (the more the better)
2. How quickly you learn from them (so you don't give up)
3. How well you can explain what you've learnt to others (to know how well you understand the topic).
None of these is possible without first understanding MediaTek devices' core principles and software repair jargon.
This course will equip you with over a decade of experience and avoidable mistakes that will come in handy whether you're a total newbie or an expert. Upon completing this course, you will be much better at searching for information online and discerning the good stuff from clickbait
Careful attention is paid to the order of the topics because all procedures are somehow linked. Learning by association makes learning fun and easy to remember.
Every section includes tools and practice questions/assignments. As important as the theory is, practice should never be taken for granted because a tutorial is just someone narrating an experience/story. Your experience would likely be somewhat different as you follow the same steps.
Our instructors are available to help if you get stuck or have questions.
Who this course is for:
- GSM Engineers (from Beginner to Pro)
- Android developers who want to understand MediaTek devices
- Android enthusiasts looking for DIY tips
