First thing to try, as always is - Official OTU Updater.

Download - Mobile Upgrade S Gotu2 v5.2.4 or Mobile_Upgrade_S_Gotu2_v5.0.6 or Mobile_Upgrade_S_Gotu2_v5.1.8

Install and follow instructions.

If utility cant detect the phone, it means somebody played with device before,
and erased important phone partitions (traceability partition),
and without it - OTU Updater cant detect it.
There is also possibility that device flash memory is damaged,
and that cant be repaired by software.

Only solution left is - find working phone and read traceability partition,
restore to non-working one and try OTU Updater again.

Backup reading from working phone and writing cant help,
only full single-file backup can help,
because in that models (MT6737M), firmware is factory-signed.
(and when you read backup it's missing sign part)

traceability (pro_info) partition is not signed ... and can be restored.

Of course, for that to happen, must be used some commercial box,
that supports booting of signed+auth+sla phone.

Okay, lets try to revive that phone ...

Download: 5044A-2xAVNI1_H6D_ROM_without_system_by_bRkA

Load into SPFT, Flash it, lets see will it power on, will it charge battery when on charger.
If it works, all you need to do is, put system.img into this rom pack,
from the rom that you downloaded, and reflash. If it works - all fine.
If not, I will prepare system.img also, was in rush now to make it faster and smaller file.
