How to fix an MTK Android phone bricked after an OTA update

For like MTK devices e.g Tecno, Gionee, Infinix, etc Android phones

We've seen OTA bricks involving both rooted and non-rooted devices so rooting can't be said to be the ultimate cause, only a possible contributing factor.

It often starts with you getting a prompt saying "an update is available" or you going to Settings > About > System update .
