Cause: Line ending errors or extra spaces. Solution: Open the scatter file in Notepad++ (not Windows Notepad). Set encoding to UTF-8 without BOM. Ensure each line follows key: value format. The standard MT6761 layout usually includes the following

Generating a scatter file for the MediaTek MT6761 (commonly found in devices like the LG K40, Lenovo K10 Note, and various regional smartphones) requires precision. The MT6761 is a 64-bit SoC, so the partition layout (scatter) must reflect the correct partition names, sizes, and offsets, or you risk hard-bricking the device. - name: userdata + name: userdata size: 0x2EE000000
