    If this is really an MTK device and someone has forced a flash of the 'non-MTK' firmware to it then it could display the symptoms you've described but the HWID would have indeed changed from 1947 to 1758 in fact (MTK or C4 is HWID 1947). However, it may also display such behavior if there is permanent damage to the flash chip itself.

    Did you recently buy this device in its current bricked state?
