4.now open sp_flash_tool folder and run Flash_tool.exe
5 click on scatter-loading and select MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc file from "Micromax a117 ebr files" folder for 2.5 GB and for other storage requirement select form EBR.rar file uploaded below. Just replace ebr1 and ebr2 given in first attachment by the new ebr files in second attachment
6 click on download on sp tool a popup will appear just ignore it and select yes
7 now connect your phone using usb cable

No data will be lost. Its just 30sec procedure. All your data will be safe.

No data will be lost. Its just 30sec procedure. All your data will be safe.

But doesn't the scatter file wipe the data?

No yaar. It will not do anything to your data. I have done that.

No yaar. It will not do anything to your data. I have done that.

So what do I click in SP tools once I've opened the scatter file?

I plug it in, then after a few seconds it makes the "hardware disconnect sound"???

Make sure drivers are installed rightly. It happens sometimes but don't worry. Keep trying. It will be all fine.
Follow all steps mentioned in the post 1.

Is it safe, I mean if I will use your ebr files will it effect my system.
How much will be the internal memory left to be used(if left)?
And If I wish to install the stock rom using sp tools will it revert back to original settings or not.
Please clarify.

Will it work if I flash the v4 ROM for mmx a117 first and then flash the ebr files for 2.5 gb.

HELP!

I had increased storage to 2.46GB successfully and for the past week, my storage suddenly dropped to 134MB available with 717MB occupied although it's showing that 2.46GB is the total available memory.

It's like it reverted to its original storage but still showing 2.46GB.
I flashed it again, but still remains the same.
Please help. Much appreciated.

Hi Kumar87,

I am trying the above procedure given by you. upto point number 5 I did. But I didn't understand the 5th statement.
"click on scatter-loading and select MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc file from "Micromax a117 ebr files" folder for 2.5 GB and for other storage requirement select form EBR.rar file uploaded below. Just replace ebr1 and ebr2 given in first attachment by the new ebr files in second attachment".
I clicked on scatter-loading and select MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc file from "Micromax a117 ebr files" folder for 2.5 GB. It worked and a list was displayed. Now what about "other storage requirement"? Where is that?
Please resolve.
