Also you could copy over your scatter file with this directory /system/data/misc it would help me out a bunch i believe the only way i can restore this tablet now since it is hard bricked is with the proper scatter file if you can do this for me id be greatly appreciative.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
My experience with Qualcomm chipsets far outweighs my knowledge of MediaTek, scatter files and SP Flash Tool. I've never actually written a scatter file. I did notice that a member of the Onn tablet forums has created a boot logo fix that conceals the "Orange State" boot screen caused by bootloader unlocking. His fix involves pushing the files onto the device via SP Flash Tool, which leads me to believe that he has crafted some type of working scatter file. I can't promise you anything, but I will research this some and see what I can come up with. I would like to perfect a method for unbricking Onn tablets via SP Flash Tool. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

i was able to grab the scatter file with a program called Ext2explore-2.2.71 i was digging around in the system.img and found it with the system.img you provided thank you btw. Here is a screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/a0pMCJI.png

here is a download: https://mega.nz/file/6ssBlQhL#U3IXXjlLCXqfi7JaCWjixaRYLQuJmNj8gMu1Sgowil0

would of uploaded to android file host but do not have developer account. So had to upload to mega. Hopefully this will help.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Cool. Thank you very much for sharing. Have you ventured in trying to use this to push the firmware images to your device using SP Flash Tool?
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
I Have no with no success still trying tho keep you updated with what happens.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
Well unfortunately it seems im stuck in hard bricked mode the only way i could fix it is if someone could provide with same model tablet and create a SPFT backup. If anyone has this tablet and would like to give it a shot heres a tutorial on how to do so fairly straight forward. https://www.theandroidsoul.com/backup-unrooted-stock-rom-mediatek-devices/
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Friend, I have the Onn Surf 10.1 (100005208). This is the same as yours I believe? I already have a full backup of my device. I'll post a link to the images. You should be able to use these images in conjunction with the SPFT and scatter file to flash your device back to operable. Here is a link to my backup images. Just download the zip and extract the six image files. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-KPwc_bCSs_zWkLzlkSTaPySabmgd_HB/view?usp=drivesdk

If this doesn't work, I'll use MTK Droid Tools to create a restoration package.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
Just tried it flashed onto the tablet but still not booting up.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Interesting. It's probably a verity issue. Later today I'll post another boot.img with insecure boot support and dm-verity disabled. Out of curiosity, are you able to yet boot your device into fastboot or recovery mode?

---------- Post added at 06:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ----------

Also, if you can recall, what was the build of the last firmware you had running on your tablet? Were you running the latest build?

---------- Post added at 06:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------

Ok [MENTION=10474135]mirrorable[/MENTION], use the scatter text and SPFT and push this boot image only onto your device and see if it will boot up. Since you've already flashed system.img, vendor.img and the other pertinent partitions, no need in flashing those again.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/10CSU-f4DrNaG3B8aSzcwRYJZhR2bfIGq/view?usp=drivesdk This boot image is also patched for systemless root via Magisk v20.4-Stable. So if this boots your device, you should also have root.

Nada doesn't work i think i need all these files i attached a picture of what i believe i need. https://i.imgur.com/0pcNexn.png
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
I can get you images for all the partitions. Be later today. I'll archive them up and upload them, and post a link here when they are ready. I'm curious: what did you do that resulted in a hard brick?
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
[MENTION=10474135]mirrorable[/MENTION], here is a link to the additional images you need. Combine these with the previous six images I linked you and flash the entire package to your tablet. Note that I do not have a preloader image included, as this was the only image I was unable to pull.

As long as your preloader isn't corrupted, these images should suffice.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/10mAiOEXQbSfXe2OloU9pbHInSnG03LUd/view?usp=drivesdk
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
Thank you i tested it and tablets boots up but now but stuck at black screen
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Ok. Now we are getting somewhere. Now, flash the patched boot image I sent you earlier. The one with dm-verity disabled and insecure boot support. Here's the link again in case you need it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/10CSU-f4DrNaG3B8aSzcwRYJZhR2bfIGq/view?usp=drivesdk You're just a hair away from a restored tablet. This should do the trick.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
okay flashed it still same thing stuck on black screen.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Ok. But you said you were out of hard brick status, correct? Can you boot your device into recovery or fastboot? If you can boot fastboot mode, I have another fix that will work.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
no i cannot get into fastboot/recovery mode when i try the screen just stays black.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
How did you initially hard brick your device? Were you rooting or flashing a custom recovery, etc.? I'm trying to pinpoint the source of corruption.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
spflash tools i overwrite everything i was trying to flash twrp then removed everything with the format section.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Okay. I see. Yeah you are going to need a preloader image to include in the SPFT package. I'll connect my device to my PC later today and use MTK Droid Tools to pull my preloader. If you literally wiped everything, erasing your nvdata partition could be problematic. This contains the MAC address and some other identifiers unique to your device. I'm not sure if there is a way to restore your nvdata if you didn't back it up originally. I'll research this a bit and see what I can find out.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Okay [MENTION=10474135]mirrorable[/MENTION], here's a preloader image. Put this in with the other images you have and this should make a full set.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/17MBwfcuIYucEzfX4famR_oB2G_CFvHL_/view?usp=drivesdk

The nvdata partition you wiped could still be problematic once you get booted up. But, let's worry about that obstacle when it gets here.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
Unfortunately with that scatter file i have it doesn't recognize that preloader.img file its wanting a .bin file ill try and see if i can modify the scatter file to allow for the preloader.img

---------- Post added at 08:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

@Viva La Android

Well tried to fix the scatter file couldn't get it to work not sure why the scatter file i pulled from the boot.img isnt working thinking of just giving up at this point. I appreciate your help throughout all of this. +Rep
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
No problem. Yeah I know from experience these hard bricks can be frustrating to say the least. I can modify the preloader.img and convert it to a preloader.bin. File formats with .img, .mbn, and .bin are all image files but with different extensions. Ok [MENTION=10474135]mirrorable[/MENTION], I've converted the file extension of the preloader.img to a preloader.bin. Your scatter file should now load it.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/17weZweFLryzKFFug20I1_FVzO83iJXM7/view?usp=drivesdk

We are definitely making progress here. At least you have the ability to now push images to your device using SPFT. As long as you can do that, there's always hope of recovering a device. I also noticed that the scatter file lists some more partitions that we haven't been including in your SPFT package. /pgpt, /protect1, /protect2, /proinfo, etc. Since you wiped all partitions on your device, these will need to be flashed I think, in order to restore your entire eMMC GPT table. Try the preloader and let's see what happens.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
so when i try to flash it im getting error code 4032 in spflash tools.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Ok. Try renaming the preloader.bin to preloader_tb8163p3_64_bsp.bin

If that doesn't work, I found a video tutorial on YouTube premised on resolving SPFT Error 4032.

[youtube]o57ngK3hxQU[/youtube]
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
SPFT's full format option is a dangerous tool. There is a similar option in fastboot called fastboot erase all. It does exactly that -- wipes every partition on the eMMC GPT table. On many Motorola devices, a fastboot erase all command renders the device non-recoverable. It cannot be recovered unless the sensitive partitions were first backed up. On these Onn tablets, I see at least two partitions that will be problematic in recovering: /persist and /nvdata. Both of these contain data specific to your device.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
tried that still didnt work :/
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] diplomatic:
To solve that error, you need to include a compatible preloader image in the preloader line in the Download tab. This is independent of whether you actually want to flash it. Uncheck the box if you don't. You can extract a clean PL img from one of the update packages linked in this thread. BTW, the format option in SPFT is a really bad idea, as Viva La Android has said. People wipe device-specific data with it all the time without even realizing it, often because the results are subtle. But that said, there's a chance those unique partitions were left alone on your device. I would not try to overwrite them. The only ones that may need to be restored are the partitions listed in the Download tab, except possibly cache & userdata. Try the Download Only function first...
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Hey [MENTION=10474135]mirrorable[/MENTION], just like [MENTION=8132642]diplomatic[/MENTION] mentioned, the preloader.img I sent you was actually from an update.zip from the latest OTA, but corresponding with the build of the other firmware images I sent. Like [MENTION=8132642]diplomatic[/MENTION], I am in hopes that none of your sensitive, device specific partitions were wiped. If not, you are almost certain to be able to revive your tablet.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] diplomatic:
Also, you asked for a scatter file, but you need a scatter file to do formatting in SPFT. At least that's what I thought. What scatter file did you use when you clicked Format that erased everything?
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
Gave the tablet away to a friend i guess you can say this is solved thanks for everyones help i just gave up and let them have a try at it.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] diplomatic:
OK, let us know if he fixes it...
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
Okay so he bought the Onn 10.1" with keyboard - ONA19TB007 and used WWR Mtk and flashed that onto the tablet granted mine is the 100005209 but he said spec wise its the same tablet just different boot logo. Tablet boots now. Will post link to SPFT backup as soon as its uploaded.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] diplomatic:
OK, gotcha. So yours had a keyboard? I think you were flashing the wrong firmware...
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
Probably man im pretty noobish to this stuff but anyways friend messaged me back here is the stock firmware he used to fix the tablet. It is a SPFT Stock Backup for anyone who needs to use it. When you use it tho he said make sure to go into recovery mode and do wipe cache and wipe tablet so it rebuilds cache.img and the user data. Otherwise it will get stuck on boot logo.

For the OTA Update im getting an error zip_compatible_err, not found using default value zip treble compatibility error invalid zip file format. Anyone know a fix?
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] diplomatic:
[MENTION=10474135]mirrorable[/MENTION], where are you getting this error? Which zip file are you installing? I doubt anybody is familiar with it just from that description.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
when i try to use OTA Update.zip with TWRP ive also tried stock firmware comes up with error code 7 on stock firmware.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] diplomatic:
[MENTION=10474135]mirrorable[/MENTION], TWRP does not support the OTA zip packages directly because the script checks for a variable that contains the current FW version that's installed. Either use the stock recovery for that or modify the update-script in the package to ignore the version check.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] mirrorable:
what exactly am i supposed to remove the range_sha1?

UPDATE: Just used my SPFT backup and replaced the October image files with it that seemed to enable me to update and remove the wireless update from popping up constantly.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] diplomatic:
Oh, ok, glad you figured it out. I realized later that you already tried the stock recovery. If you got error code 7 with it, it means that your system or vendor partition was changed (even mounting it once in write mode would change it).

Whelp, not applying that one. Actually, haven't updated in the past year as no apparent feature/functionality improvements. I'm not concerned about keeping up about security patches. Watch where you surf, keep your fly buttoned and (for gads sake) don't download sketchy games just because the guy two doors down is playing it. Nothing's going to happen. VPN based firewall helps guard against occasional slips.

What about encryption? Does it need to be disabled? How? Mine shows it's encrypted.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] martyfender:
My Onn 8 works great with encryption left enabled.

In the past, older Android devices benefited by disabling it. Newer devices with faster processors and more ram appear to run fine without disabling it.

[/COLOR]

I believe a lot of the issue was twrp for those devices not handling encryption/decryption. [MENTION=8132642]diplomatic[/MENTION] put a lot of work into his twrp handling encryption and adopted storage. I believe that is why we get the benefit of keeping encryption on rooted device where many others have to format /data and prevent forced encryption. If I'm wrong maybe he will explain it to us a little better.
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] diplomatic:
Yeah, I guess so. Although it was pretty straightforward to enable (system-assisted) encryption in TWRP for up to Android 7. Just one or two makefile variables basically does it. Some authors haven't taken the time to research this and just left out the encryption. In Android 8 or 9, things got a little more complicated with Treble and system-as-root. TWRP code did not have great out of the box support for decryption on those. It needed to be patched in order to not corrupt the crypto metadata, and possibly fix other things that I don't remember...
[Walmart Onn Tablets General] deadman96385:
Hey [MENTION=4519203]NFSP G35[/MENTION] I assume you would want the onn pro stock firmware for the OP, if not let me know i'll make one specific to the onn pro. I picked up an onn pro 8 inch and I can confirm that like the older onn its fully unlockable, and sp flash works without a DA/Auth file. So I have generated a scatter file for it and dumped the firmware. I have done the shipping OS as well as the 3/5/2020 update. I was not able to get the ota link because I have not rooted my device so I can't grab the prefs xml, and there was nothing in logcat. Feel free to mirror these if desired.

Note: The SOC is classified as mt6765 instead of mt8768 due to sp flash not currently supporting mt8768. The reason i picked mt6765 is that it seems the mt8768 soc is based on that because almost everywhere in the system it's mt6765.

FYI I wouldn't recommend at least the 8 inch I exchanged mine because of terrible light bleed around the screen and the new unit I got also had bad light bleed. So I returned that one as well.
