How To Create Your Own Android Device Scatter File

Good day y'all. 

Today we are going to discuss on how to create a scatter file for our Android devices. A scatter file is very important as it serves as the foundation/building block for our android device. It is a file used to describe the loads of regions in a specific android device running Mediatek ARM architecture. It is an essential requirement needed by SP flash tool used in reviving bricked devices, flashing or other mods. So its importance can’t be over-emphasized.

Pre-requisites/Requirements: 

1. MTK Android phone or Tab with USB cable. 

2. MTK Droid Tools. 

3. Windows Computer. 

4. ADB Drivers or PDANet.

Now let's get started.

Install the ADB drivers or PDANet on ur pc.

Step 1. Enable USB debugging in ur android device by going to settings => developer options => tick enable usb debugging. 

Step 2. Then connect your switched on Android device to your PC via the USB cable. Note that the drivers must install automatically since you already have pda.net installed.

Step 3. From your PC, run MTK Droid tools application with administrator rights. Wait some few seconds for the tool to detect your device and load your android devices info.

Step 4. Next click on blocks Map. A new dialog box will appear with the various partition blocks of your android device. 

Step 5. Click on create scatter file on the dialog box. You will then be asked to select a name and location to save d created scatter file. 

Don't change the default name of the scatter file. Just select a suitable location of your choice to save the scatter file and click OK

Thats all !!!

You can even keep multiple copies since it is a small .txt file. It will be used by SP Flash tool whenever you want to do any mods, flashing, tweaks etc. on your MTK Android device.
