No. ADB Interface drivers are for rooting or connecting the phone to the PC while phone is ON, USB VCOM drivers are for flashing and works only when the PHONE is OFF .

You cannot use just any scatter file downloaded from internet. You can easily brick your phone if you do. First, you need to find a ROM file for your phone.

RE: ROM flashing tutorial for MTK chipset phones

Two things: - Your recovery is not working. - This tutorial is for ROM flashing. Not for ROM backup. For backup, you need to follow other tutorials. You can try to find a ROM for your device. It will come with it's own scatter file. When you open that scatter file in SP flash tool, you will see that location will not be empty.
