Tecno Pop 4 BC2c Firmware (Flash File) Drivers, Tools & Guide
This page provides the official Tecno Pop 4 BC2c firmware, the necessary drivers, and a complete guide to fix bootloops, bypass FRP, or restore the device to factory settings.
The most common issue with Unisoc devices is selecting the wrong file. This guide focuses on the correct Tecno Pop 4 BC2c firmware and the right tool to use. The firmware package for Unisoc devices is a single .pac file, not a folder of separate partitions like you would see with MediaTek. Make sure your downloaded ZIP actually contains that .pac file before you open the flash tool.
This page lists 14 firmware builds for the Tecno Pop 4 BC2c, covering multiple Android versions and security patch levels. If one build does not work, try a different version. The stock firmware ships with Android 10 (Go edition), HIOS, which determines the default apps, security features, and interface you will see after flashing. The Tecno Pop 4 BC2c uses a Unisoc Spreadtrum SC7731e chipset (Unisoc/Spreadtrum), so you will need SPD Flash Tool and SPD USB drivers. These tools are specific to Unisoc-based devices and will not work with MediaTek or Qualcomm phones.
The Tecno Pop 4 BC2c was released in 2020. This page is maintained with the latest available firmware builds as they become available. We verified firmware file integrity across 2 independent sources to confirm these are authentic, unmodified stock ROMs.
Your Tecno Pop 4 BC2c firmware comes as a compressed ZIP file. Download and extract it using WinRAR or 7-Zip. Once extracted, open the folder and confirm it contains the .pac file before proceeding.
Keep in mind that flashing stock firmware erases all data, which is intentional, as it resolves software issues including FRP lock, app problems, slow performance, forgotten pattern locks, a dead or logo-stuck device, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth issues, battery drain, and soft brick situations.
Tecno Pop 4 BC2c Hard Reset Guide
To factory reset Tecno Pop 4 BC2c without a computer, power off the device completely, then hold Volume Up and Power at the same time until the recovery menu appears. Use the volume keys to navigate to “Wipe Data/Factory Reset” and confirm with the Power button.
A hard reset erases all data and restores Tecno Pop 4 BC2c to its original factory state. This fixes most software problems, slow performance, app crashes, forgotten screen locks, and bootloops. If the issue persists after a factory reset, a full firmware flash using SPD Research Tool is covered in the following sections.
Bypass Google Lock on Tecno Pop 4 BC2c
The fastest way to bypass FRP on Tecno Pop 4 BC2c is to use a free Android apps launcher that lets you access settings during the setup wizard. After flashing or performing a factory reset you may see a Google account lock (FRP). Our free Android apps launcher is the fastest way to get past it. This is also why I always recommend removing your Google account before flashing, it avoids this problem entirely.
Why Flash Stock ROM on Tecno Pop 4 BC2c?
The Tecno Pop 4 BC2c runs on a Unisoc (Spreadtrum) chipset, and the most reliable way to fix software issues on these devices is a clean firmware flash using SPD Research Tool. Here is what the stock firmware can fix:
- Restore the original Tecno stock ROM to keep your warranty valid.
- Remove persistent malware or adware that survives a factory reset.
- Fix Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or mobile data connectivity that stopped working after an update.
- Update to the latest Android version supported by your phone.
- Recover your device when it only boots into recovery mode.
- Fix startup loops, lagging, and freezing on your device.
- Resolve .pac loading failures and communication errors in SPD Research Tool that prevent normal use of your device.

Verify Your Tecno Pop 4 BC2c Model Before Downloading
The single biggest mistake I see people make is flashing firmware meant for a different variant. Before downloading anything, verify your exact device identity:
- Open About Phone: Your device model must read “BC2c” exactly. Even small differences in the code can mean a completely different chipset and partition layout.
- Verify the Chipset Type: This firmware targets Unisoc Spreadtrum SC7731e specifically. Flashing it on a different chipset will fail or could brick the device.
- Check Your Current Firmware Version: Compare your build number with the versions listed in the download section to decide which file to use.
- Use Recovery Mode: If you cannot access Settings (phone is stuck or locked), boot into recovery mode to read the build and chipset details from the screen.
- Regional Compatibility: Some Tecno firmware packages target specific regions. Confirm the download matches your device origin.

Which Firmware Version Should I Download?
Use the table below to identify the correct firmware version for your situation:
| Your Situation | What I Recommend |
|---|---|
| Phone is completely dead or stuck on logo | V019, download this one. It is the latest Tecno Pop 4 BC2c firmware available. |
| FRP / Google account lock only | See the FRP bypass guide above, you likely do not need the full firmware for this. |
| Phone slow after a recent OTA update | Try V018, sometimes the latest OTA introduces new bugs and an older build runs better. |
| IMEI missing after a previous flash | Re-flash V019 first, then follow the IMEI repair guide. Do not skip the reflash. |
| V019 failed with a flash error | Try V018 instead and double-check your .pac file selection before assuming the firmware is the problem. |
| Restoring to factory / warranty repair | V019, clean state, fresh start. |
With Unisoc devices, I recommend using the latest .pac file first. Older versions of the SPD Research Tool firmware can sometimes cause modem issues, which show up as no signal after flashing. Only try an older version if the latest one does not work for you.

Only download firmware that is fully compatible with your exact device model. See the firmware selection guide above if you are not sure.
Important: The Tecno Pop 4 BC2c (BC2c) should not be confused with other Pop 4 variants that may have different chipsets or regional firmware. Even devices in the same Pop 4 line can use completely different processors. Always verify your exact model code “BC2c” in Settings > About Phone before downloading any firmware from this page.
- Go to Settings and verify your model is exactly BC2c. Phones with similar names can have completely different hardware.
- The chipset in your device should be Unisoc Spreadtrum SC7731e. If it is different, this firmware will not work.
- Always download directly from the table on this page to ensure you have the correct build.
- Check the file size after downloading, a mismatch with the listed size means a partial or corrupt download.
What You Need Before Flashing Tecno Pop 4 BC2c
Prepare your computer and device before starting the flashing process. The most common reason Tecno Unisoc flashes fail is skipping the driver installation step. SPD Research Tool is very particular about drivers, and Windows will not always tell you when they are missing.
- IMEI Backup: Open the dialer and enter *#06#. Write both IMEI numbers down on paper or take a screenshot. If you ever need to repair your IMEI after flashing, these are essential.
- Remove All Google Accounts: Go to Settings, Accounts, and sign out of every Google account on the device. Leaving accounts signed in triggers FRP lock after a flash, which blocks you from setting up the phone.
- Backup Everything: Photos, contacts, messages, WhatsApp data, move it all to a computer or cloud service. The flash will restore the phone to factory state with nothing on it.
- 50% Battery Minimum: Do not start with a low battery. If power cuts out during the flash, the device can become unresponsive and much harder to fix.
- USB Cable and Computer: Use a proper data-transfer USB cable and a Windows PC. Avoid USB hubs, connect directly to the motherboard port for a stable connection.
- Download and Install Drivers:
- Tecno USB Drivers (includes Spreadtrum USB drivers)
Install Stock Firmware on Tecno Pop 4 BC2c
You will need the SPD Research Tool to install the Tecno Pop 4 BC2c firmware. It is the standard tool for Unisoc-based devices. One thing I always do: run it as Administrator. Right-click the .exe and choose “Run as administrator.” This prevents a number of permission-related errors. You can also follow the video guide below if you prefer to see the process in action.
- Get the Firmware Ready:
- Download the firmware file from the download section above.
- Right-click the ZIP and select “Extract Here” or use 7-Zip. Put the extracted files in a folder without spaces in the name, like
C:firmware.
- Verify Your Drivers:
- Make sure the required drivers are installed. After installing, restart your PC, drivers often do not activate until after a reboot.
- Load the Firmware File:
- Click the “Load Packet” button and navigate to the extracted folder to select the .pac file.
- Connect Your Device:
- Power off your phone completely, not sleep mode, fully off.
- Connect to your PC via USB cable. The flash tool will detect it automatically.
- Start Flashing:
- Hit the “Start” button in the flash tool to start the process.
- Leave the phone and cable completely alone until it finishes. Any interruption during this stage risks corrupting the flash.
- Wait and Reboot:
- When the flash completes, unplug the USB cable from your phone.
- Turn on the device. First boot takes 3 to 8 minutes, do not force restart it during this time.
Video Guide for Flashing
Normal Behavior After Installing Tecno Pop 4 BC2c Firmware
The following behaviors are standard after a successful flash:
- How to know the flash was successful: SPD Research Tool will show a green “PASSED” message when the flash is complete. If you see this, you are done.
- Storage will show almost full capacity available since all your apps and files are gone. The system partition size varies by firmware version but is typically 4 to 8 GB on most devices.
- Stuck in a bootloop after first boot? Enter recovery mode and do a factory reset from there, see the hard reset guide above. This can happen occasionally and does not mean the firmware is wrong.
- Fingerprint and face unlock data are erased during the flash. You will need to re-register your fingerprints and face data from scratch in the security settings.
- Be careful when re-adding your Google account, if you did not remove it before flashing, you may see an FRP prompt. Add it fresh during the setup wizard, not afterwards through Settings.
- First boot takes 3 to 8 minutes, do not force-reboot the device. The operating system is setting itself up from scratch. Interrupting this is how devices end up in bootloops.
- The phone will feel warm during first boot, this is normal. It settles after a few minutes once the initial app setup is complete.
Troubleshooting Tecno Pop 4 BC2c Flash Errors
- Tecno Pop 4 BC2c Not Recognized by SPD Research Tool:
- In most cases this is a driver issue, not a cable issue. Reinstall the Spreadtrum USB drivers for the BC2c, restart your PC, then try again.
- If the device is still not detected, try a different USB port, USB 2.0 ports tend to work more reliably with Unisoc devices than USB 3.0.
- Temporarily disable your antivirus software, it can sometimes block the Spreadtrum driver from loading without showing any error.
- Boot Loop After Flashing:
- Enter recovery mode and perform a factory reset. This resolves most post-flash bootloops on Unisoc devices. If recovery mode is also not accessible, reflash the firmware from scratch.
- Wrong .pac File Selected for BC2c:
- If SPD Research Tool throws an error immediately after you load the file, you have likely selected the wrong firmware. Confirm that the .pac file model code matches your Tecno Pop 4 BC2c exactly.
- No Signal After Flashing:
- This usually points to an IMEI issue. Dial *#06#, if it shows null or unknown, follow the IMEI repair guide above before inserting your SIM card.
Missing IMEI or Corrupt Baseband on Tecno Pop 4 BC2c After Flashing?
A missing IMEI after a Unisoc flash usually means the NVRAM partition was not written correctly during the flash. This happens more often than it should on SPD devices. The WriteIMEI Tool handles this well for Unisoc. Just make sure you have your original IMEI written down from before you flashed, dial *#06# before starting next time. Without the original number, you cannot restore it properly.
Use WriteIMEI Tool for Unisoc to restore it. The video guide below shows the exact steps.

Tecno Pop 4 BC2c Flashing FAQ
Q1: Is it safe to flash during a power outage risk?
A: It is best to avoid flashing during unstable power conditions. If your PC shuts down during the flash, it can corrupt the write and leave the phone in an unbootable state. If you are in an area with unreliable power, use a laptop with a fully charged battery instead of a desktop.
Q2: Is this firmware compatible with other Tecno models?
A: No. This firmware is built specifically for the Tecno Pop 4 BC2c running on the Unisoc Spreadtrum SC7731e chipset. Even variants of the Pop 4 with a different letter suffix can have a completely different chipset inside. Flashing the wrong firmware can leave your phone in a state that is very difficult to recover from. Always check your exact model number in Settings.
Q3: How do I enter recovery mode?
A: Power the device off completely, then hold Volume Up + Power at the same time until the recovery menu appears. The recovery menu displays the build number which you can use to verify your firmware version before flashing.
Q4: My device is not detected by SPD Research Tool. What should I do?
A: Start with the drivers, reinstall the Spreadtrum USB drivers, restart your PC, then try again. Switch to a USB 2.0 port if you are on USB 3.0. Disable your antivirus temporarily. If none of that works, leave a comment with the exact error message.
Q5: What should I do if I encounter an FRP lock after flashing?
A: Use our free Android apps launcher. FRP lock activates when a Google account was still signed in before flashing. This is why signing out of your Google account before flashing avoids this issue entirely.
Q6: What if the flash fails halfway through?
A: Do not panic and do not disconnect the phone. Close SPD Research Tool, restart it, and try the flash again from the beginning. In most cases, a failed flash just means the process needs to be repeated. The device is usually still detectable by the flash tool even after a failed attempt.
Q7: Will flashing erase my data?
A: Yes, flashing with SPD Research Tool restores the device to factory state, including Android 10 (Go edition), HIOS default settings. All apps, photos, contacts, and accounts will be removed. Back up everything you need before you start. There is no way to recover data once the flash is complete.
Q8: My IMEI shows “unknown” after flashing. Is my phone permanently damaged?
A: No, it looks alarming, but it is fixable. Follow the IMEI repair guide in the troubleshooting section above. For Unisoc devices, use the WriteIMEI Tool. Do not insert a SIM card until the IMEI is restored.
