MT6765 Android Scatter.txt Guide

The MediaTek MT6765 is an ARM-based octa-core SoC (System on Chip) widely deployed in budget and mid-range Android smartphones. Because MediaTek devices do not natively use standard Qualcomm-style primary bootloader interfaces (like Fastboot) for bare-metal recovery, they rely on a proprietary Preloader handshake. The scatter file is the core map that translates high-level system images into raw hexadecimal offsets on the device's storage media. 2. Structural Breakdown of the Scatter File mt6765-android-scatter.txt

The tool will automatically populate the list of image files ( system.img MT6765 Android Scatter

• Overwrite preloader with a bricking payload.
• Include is_download: true for hidden partitions like nvram (IMEI storage).
  Always verify SHA-256 of your scatter file against known-good dumps.

When you flash a stock ROM or firmware to an MTK device, the flashing tool does not see the device's storage as a single hard drive like a computer does. Instead, it sees the storage (eMMC or UFS) as a raw block of addresses. The scatter file acts as the guidebook, telling the tool exactly where to place specific pieces of data (partitions) within that storage. Overwrite preloader with a bricking payload

✅ Key points that make this “solid”:

• Region types are correct: EMMC_BOOT_1 for preloader, EMMC_USER for everything else.
• linear_start_addr is always 0x0 for MTK scatter (this is correct – SP Flash Tool computes from physical address).
• Partition sizes are realistic (e.g., super = 512MB, boot = 32MB).
• Dynamic partitions (super) included for modern Android.
• Unused partitions have file_name: N/A and is_download: false.
• Addresses don’t overlap and follow typical MT6765 OEM layouts.
