i always get this popup when trying to flash via sp flash tool
ERROR: STATUS_SCATTER_FILE_INVALID (0xC0030001)
The scatter file format is invalid
thanks in advance

That's not a scatter file. From where you got the firmware?
Here is guy having the same problem. See his post for a 6580 scatter file.

No preloader file? If your preloader is ok, it's better to uncheck its checkbox anyway.

[HELP] 9300+ (mtk6577) PMT corrupted - can't upgrade firmware

Hi.
My 9300+ (chinese mtk6577) is dead... I have to updated wrong firmware and my phone will don't turn ON again, when I use the SP Flash Tool appears the message: "Firmware Upgrade could not be executed without PMT. Please "Download" ONLY first to create PMT on the target!
My internal partition is corrupted and i can't create PMT because my phone don't Turn On, but my USB is recognized by windows.
Please Help Me.

I know this is an old post, but this may help someone. (would have me a month ago)
Hopefully if your USB is seen in Windows you can convince SP Flash Tool to spew/download/write data to your phone while it's in Meta Mode.
I believe the PMT block is created by SP Flash Tool dynamically from scatter file. It's comparing the scatter file with what is sitting at the PMT address on the flash. If these two mismatch, you get the error you mentioned. If you want to force a new PMT that matches your scatter file's layout, you have to do a "Format" in SP Flash Tool. This will get you back to a PMT on flash that matches your scatter file, then SP Flash Tool will be happy and allow you to use Download (write to flash).
What is a PMT? A partition table that holds the addresses to all the other partitions.

PMT Corrupted & Format-all done
I faced the same error.......my PMT got corrupted (possibly due to an earlier attempt to re-size (system / data) partition using Swiftbootloader)...... & un-fortunately, I clicked on Format in SP Flash Tool as well.
Now all is gone.... phone doesn't switch on.........
Please guide...... to bring the bricked handset (Spice Mi-350n) to life again. I have backups..... but that relate to different scatter file (PMT) perhaps........ do I need to search & learn webos & acmeinstaller kind of things now?

Hi spandrd,
did u manage to resolve this problem. I am also facing this problem after attempting to re-size the partition using meteos mtk6589 rom edit apk .... Although my phone is still working properly without any issue, i am unable to root or install CWM by any means (tried mtk mobileuncle tools, tried spflash tool) but not working. Can you guide me how to root and install cwm as i am unable to revert to my old backup w/o cwm.

The best way to restore your phone was already answered in the previous post, that is to FORMAT your device and subsequently flash the official firmware.

Hi iZLeeP
Thanks for the quick reply. I dont have any official rom. The only backup i have is using the CWM backup of the official rom before applying a custom LG rom. If it is possible, how can i utilize the CWM backup of the official rom to revert back please ? I can see boot.img and recovery.img files in cwm backup; can i utilize them somehow to revert back ? Please help. Thanks.

Let me remind people, the first order of business must be to have a full firmware backup from the phone manufacturer or thru MTK Droid Root & Tools. Reading that you tried to resize your system & data partition, your cwm backup should not be affected by it. Try restoring to default the partition sizes using the app/script you used to resize. It should have that function. Then flash custom recovery and root and see if it works.
phone booting to main-screen or not?
hi HNaseer....
As replied by @syserr & @iZLeeP .............you can try to "Format-All / Format-All except bootloader" type of thing PROVIDED THAT YOU HAVE COMPLETE BACKUP OF RELEVANT PARTITIONS (till Cache and / or till FAT partition length) using SP Flash Tool........ & MTK Droid Tool......... PLUS, YOU WILL NEED IMEI BACKUP (IMEI No.) in such case if you want to restore.
SP Flash Tool needs Scatter File......... (obtainable thru MTK Droid Tool) & can help in backup of various partitions even if phone not turning on. BUT IMEI backup would be good........ IF YOU ARE ABLE TO BOOT / reach main screen after boot animation.
Rest of the details can be first read / understood from my MT6589 chipset type handset link from @Atrvscet : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2514419
Or, better search exact thread on xda / elsewhere to get stock / custom rom & flashing etc.
Lastly, if you are able to boot in recovery, best thing should be to flash / force flash original cwm backup from recovery.

HNaseer.... I agree with everything spandrd just said. I'd like to stress though, getting a backup of your NVRAM partition is much better than having MTKDT copy your /data/nvram. So if you have a choice, backup the NVRAM partition with SPFT or if MTKDT has that option use it. (I've rarely used MTKDT as I found aspects confusing)
Incredible.
Thank you so much. HAd almost given up hope...

Not sure what you are expecting to do with a FORMAT. If you had a good backup of your NVRAM partition, then what you would need is a SCATTER file and ROM files, you could FORMAT then DOWNLOAD the ROM files and your NVRAM file to your device with SPFT. But since you don't have your NVRAM partition, you don't have an easy path. FYI, I don't know new devices... there could be more complication than MT6577/75.

Try google, or search xda, or needrom.com...
This may or may not help you. If I were you I would use SPFT right now to try to backup your NVRAM partition if it's not too late. Your FORMAT may have wiped the NVRAM partition already. If it has wiped it, your only good path is to find someone willing to give you their NVRAM partition. Then somehow insert your own IMEI and WIFI MAC in and pray.

if you get full backup before install cwm, you should flash boot.img and recovery.img with sp flash tool (write memory way).
If you dont have any backup than you can download any u20 rom from huawei web site and extract boot.img and recovery.img with huawei extract tool(google this "huawei extract xda") than flash it sp flash tool in write memory section.

I can't post links yet, but you can Google it. Try typing "Huawei G610 U20 Needrom". You'll get links from Needrom.com, try look. Imgg for those. Once you're in the website, you'll most probably end up under G610's category. Try looking for the ones that say "official".
For you to extract the update.app file, try googling "Huawei Update.app extractor". The link you should look for should be from XDA Developers. You can then use it to extract the update.app file so that you can flash the .img files using SP Flashtool.

I was actually having problems making the sp flash tool work. It won't download after I plug the device to the computer. I'm doing the whole process correctly but I'm always getting an error. Then I found out that the mt65xx driver appears very briefly in Device Manager, then disappears. This all happens after about a second. Do you happen to know how to solve this?

Scatter file for MT6735P

Hello!
I have a GooPhone i6S Plus (Android 5.1) and I need a scatter file to flash the rom and the recovery.

and you can also find scatter file from this link

if you are unable to find scatter emmc you can create your own by performing full backup via adb with commands but takes some time
hope this helps

The scatter file provides physical sizes and memory address location (starting points) information for various file system components within an Android build. For example, a TWRP image needs to be loaded to a specific address point (recovery) in order to launch, and can not be so large as to overwrite the next required Android component. The scatter file provides the necessary information to Android at startup, since Android is really nothing more than a (very sophisticated) Linux shell program. This information often varies considerably from one device to another - especially with MTK chipset devices - and you really can't do a thing about installing alternative ROMs or recoveries without it.

Could you please put it on MediaFire or something like that and put the link here please? I bricked my phone about an year ago and I never found a scatter file to flash a firmware on it, so it's just bricked and I can't do anything with it. I flashed the wrong ROM and I forgot to check if there were scatter files available for it before flashing the ROM. If you could provide the file, I'd appreciate it (and many others, probably). Thanks in advance.

Cant use SP FlashTools at all

I got the scatter file from CM thread. But I cannot use it in SP cuz "initializing scatter file failed please check the name of scatter p9000 is legal".
Name is MT6755_Android_scatter.txt
SP latest version 5.1520
Dont know whats wrong and what to do. I got this device for $10 on GearBest in a competition. Didnt know flashing MTK devices is so difficult. Will stick to snapdragon from now on.

adb is used for pushing files, adb shell and other stuff, not to flash roms..(except adb sideload) ive flashed Aerom, i havent tried cm13, make sure your not using wrong scatter file, i think p9000 and p9000 lite have different scatters
I have got past the scatter file problem by shortening its name but then when I hit the download button, nothing happened.
I have installed SP driver pack, disable digital signing but when I try to install the VCOM driver, the installer could not install because the program wasn't signed.

Which version of Windows do you use??
The VCOM-drivers cant be installed in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update...
Easy!
Use some other directory (folder), e.g. C: or C:\Flash\. this will work.

Samsung flashing + brom mode

Hi everyone. I ask you something ¿is there any way to flash a samsung stock firmware on brom mode (not in download mode, but brom mode)? If there is, ¿How can i do that? Thanks
Model SM-.....
is that samsung use mediatek? if so, find full dump firmware for your model and flash it using sp flash tool, you need bypass brom authentication first in order to flash
SM-A146U, processor MT6833

I tried already with sp flash tool, I know about bypass brom authentication; but I what I don't have is a reliable scatter firmware. I tried to convert any of the samsung roms I downloaded, into a scatter one, by using Android utility, but the generated scatter is useless, so i don't know if all the rest of "converted" files are reliable too.

Sir, that's exactly the problem: There's no download mode. It's stuck on boot rom mode, so the phone it's just recognized as mtk device.
So, I tried to find a firmware scatter version for this phone, but besides what is a relatively new model, its storage is UFS, so any EMMC scatter file is useless, at least on sp flash tool. Someone has said me, I can flash it with unlocktool, but i'm broke and I cannot afford that program (and obviously if the phone is stuck in that mode, odin doesn't work).
