MyPhone Ocean Mini Firmware Stock ROM with mini tutorial

UPDATED this post. The previous firmware has a password, I updated the file already.

You have 50% chance to fix MyPhone Ocean Mini if "/mount data error" appears in Android System Recovery. And also if Android System Recovery is damaged.

UPDATE 2: I experience one time that when you select factory reset in android system recovery the "/mount data error" appears. Try to wipe the cache first before wiping or factory resetting the phone. This is not guaranteed to work. I had only experienced this one time. 

UPDATE 3: if you encounter S_BROM error, you should format first your phone or select Format All+Dowload in the latest version of Flashtool. Load first the scatter file before proceeding. I encountered one time that if you ever encounter the BROM error after you successfully the phone it will stuck up in MyPhone Logo only. If this happen hard reset your phone or flash the phone (download only)

Installing Driver
