Sometimes you need to modify the scatter file to skip a corrupt partition or change a partition's size (e.g., enlarge system for GSI). Here is how:
The MT6769 chipset belongs to MediaTek’s era. Unlike older chips (MT6580, MT6739), you will not see separate system , vendor , or product entries in a modern MT6769 scatter. Instead, you see a single super partition. mt6769 scatter file
The MT6769 scatter file typically contains a list of sections, each representing a specific part of the firmware, such as the bootloader, kernel, system, and userdata. Each section is defined by its starting address, size, and file name, allowing the flashing tool to accurately place the firmware components on the device. Sometimes you need to modify the scatter file
A scatter file is a text file that contains information about the layout of the firmware on a MediaTek-based device. Specifically, the MT6769 scatter file is designed for devices powered by the MediaTek MT6769 chipset. This file is used by flashing tools, such as SP Flash Tool, to identify the different components of the firmware and their respective locations on the device's memory. Instead, you see a single super partition
For MT6769, this is typically HW_STORAGE_EMMC . Common Uses
