Micromax A52 ROOTED!!!! - Miscellaneous Android Development

So, this is it! MICROMAX A52 has been rooted!! :laugh:
(I dont own this device, i rooted it for my friends at Indiedevers, dont ask me device specific questions!)
Things you would be needing:
1. SP flash tool -> ver 2.1 (see attatched files!)
2. Download and extract my attatched a52 rooted.rar file.
3. Unlockroot (get it from www.unlockroot.com).
4. MTK drivers (see mtk attatchment on this xda post)
5. ADB drivers (No need to worry about, unlockroot will automatically setup the adb driver while rooting)
Ok so let's move on to the steps:
1. This rar file contains my modified boot.img & the A52 scatter file (needed by SP Tools, tells the SP tools which rom addresses to flash).
2. Install the MTK drivers, just run the InstallDriver.exe program inside the MTK folder).
3. Most of you might be experienced with flashing through SP Tools, for those who are using it for the first time read this excellent guide on how to use it -> MTK Flashing Using SP Tools
4. After flashing, reboot your handset by taking out and reinserting the battery.
5. When the phone boots up go to Settings->Applications->Development and tick mark "Enable Debugging".
6. Now attach your phone using the data cable.
7. Open Unlockroot program through windows start menu.
8. Click the big green root button.
9. It will ask for installing drivers, click "yes"...it's now installing the ADB drivers.
10. Finally it will root your phone and will ask you for rebooting the phone, click yes.
11. Let your A52 reboot.
Finally after booting, check the app drawer for an application "Superuser"...Congratulations!! your A52 is successfully rooted!!!...:highfive:

Me! yeah! i did it again!

& other indiedevers members who encouraged me!
Caution: You can softbrick your device if you play around much on "GOD MODE" (Superuser mode), know what you are doing and accept the consequences if you make your device unusable (although highly rare)..

INSTALLING CWM on ZOPO ZP900 LEADER

This method successfully installs the CWM on the phone. CWM version supplied by ZOPO does not work. Use the CWM posted in the second link
I am a still learning and not a developer !
Hi All ZOPO ZP900 Leader Owners,
This is a guide for Installing Clock Work Mod Recovery Image on ZOPO ZP900 Leader Phone. Most of the owners of this fantastic phone would have desperately tried like me to install CWM on this phone (some may have found success). ZOPO does gives an option to order the phone pre-rooted however they do not install CWM ....or for that matter there is no Stock Recovery on the phone !!!. Start the phone with Power + Volume Up button pressed and your presented with an image of sick Android lying down with a Red triangle coming out of his opened stomach :laugh:
DONT TRY TO USE ROM MANAGER APP TO INSTALL CWM, THIS WILL ONLY BRICK YOUR PHONE !
So after breaking my head for couple of days, searching the net, downloading stuff I have successfully installed CWM !
So here are the steps !.
What you need
1. ZOPO ZP900 Leader phone
2. Download Fully working English CWM from here http://www.4shared.com/file/16vuWyiU/recovery.html. The one posted in Zopo website does not work.
3. Download latest SP Flash Tool for MTK6577 from here http://www.4shared.com/zip/Xgc3G_hB/SP_Flash_Tool_v3122200.html
4. Download the latest Stock ICS ROM for ZP900 from Zopo website link http://www.4shared.com/rar/hGY2ahbu/MP_MT77_root_en_play_fix_zp900.html
5. Download MTK6577 Driver from Zopo website http://www.4shared.com/zip/YXlLFoLm/6577driver_install_3_steps.html
Installation Steps
1. Unzip and Install the USB drivers on your Windows PC using the MTK 6577 Driver Zip file. There will be 3 folders named First Step, Second Step & Third Step. Open First Step install the MTK driver MSI file. Post completion open Second Step, click on ClickInstall Driver, it will automatically install the USB driver. Press Exit after installation (Win 7 may give error that installation was incorrect, just ignore)
Repeat the same for folder Third Step
Connect your phone switched off and battery removed using USB cable. Windows will recognize and install the MTK drivers for your phone (any free COM ports) will be configured. Disconnect the phone. Put the battery back but do not switch on the phone
2.Extract the latest ROM folder from downloaded ICS ROM. You will get 2 folders
database
MP_MT77_h958_zp900_zwx_ics_20120912-155136_TSZ_PC
Open the second folder (MP_MT77***). This is the folder that has all the image files. You will find recovery.img file. This is original file. You can either rename it or keep a back up and delete it.
3. Copy the new CWM recovery.img file that you downloaded from ZOPO website in this folder. Rename it to be recovery.img
4. Extract and run SP flash Tool.exe (the one with Blue image icon)
5.Click on Options, USB Mode will be checked, DA Download All will be checked, in the sub options Speed will be Checked High Speed, Battery select With Battery. Come to the main Application window
6. Click on Scatter-loading button which is on the right side below Downloading Agent. A window will open. Browse to your extracted ICS ROM folder, click on folder MP_MT77****. By default you will have only one map file of name MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc. Select this
7. The flash tool will populate the Map file on the application window. You will see multiple Entries such as
PRELOADER
DSP_BL
MBR
etc etc. Each will have a check box which is by default checked.
8. UNCHECK all entries EXCEPT FOR "RECOVERY". Leave Recovery checked.
9. Now click on "Download" on the Application or press F9 on keyboard. A warning message will pop up. Press YES
10. You will see in the status bar below "Searching"
11. Connect your phone (switched off and with battery inserted) via the USB cable.
12. Flash tool will do its stuff. First a red progress bar, then a count down, a quick yellow progress bar and final window showing Green Circle.
If you get this the Congrats You have flashed CWM !
Check by unplugging the phone and re-starting it with Power+Volume Up button Pressed. The Phone will boot into CWM !.
Enjoy !
Warning - Please follow the instructions. Don't mess around with anything else. Not responsible if you do anything else and brick your device !
In case you get any other error on SP Flash Tool, then recheck your MTK driver installation. Try on another PC.
Now I hope this opens the door for many other things !
Additional Info -
Install PDAnet from here http://www.junefabrics.com/android/download.php or Snappea from www.snappea.com to make your device get recognized when connected to the computer. Install this with your phone switched on, this software installs the necessary drivers for the phone, post which you can use flash tool.

The CWM from taiwan101 for the 9300+ seems to be working fine. I was able to install .zip file from SD card. However the CWM is in Taiwanese, so if anyone can provide the CWM in English, thanks in advance
link for 9300+ CWM http://d01.megashares.com/dl/KicT315...M_Recovery.rar
UPDATE - Finally got a full working English CWM for ZOPO extracted from Mod ROM posted thanks to Kyrie1965. Tested and everything is working. Download from here http://www.4shared.com/file/16vuWyiU/recovery.html

This method successfully installs the CWM on the phone. CWM as such works (able to navigate through the menus etc) but some of the function such as Install from ZIP, Backup etc, mount are not working, Gives an error Unable to Mount Sdcard !. Not sure if the issue is with CWM version supplied by ZOPO, need to try with other/older versions of CWM.
Please feel free to post links of CWM that works

Check your device drivers USB driver has not been installed properly. I faced this issue and after multiple attempts of reinstall of USB drivers the flash tool started working properly
Also you can try installing PDAnet from here http://www.junefabrics.com/android/download.php
Install this with your phone switched on, this software installs the necessary drivers for the phone, post which you can use flash tool.
Note Connect the phone to flash tool first without battery, in options select with battery, press download after selecting the required file, when it says searching unplug the phone put battery back, dont switch on, plus back the usb. The flash tool should load the required file.

It will flash the entire ROM again. My guide was specifically for flashing only the CWM and not the entire ROM. I wanted to keep the Stock rom intact as it came from ZOPO.
Word of caution, I am yet top try flashing the complete ROM so if you are trying ensure that your have taken a backup via CWM (if already flashed) of your existing full working ROM before attempting anything. Also flash only ZOPO Stock or customised ROMs,
From where did you bought this mobile?
Does the imei start from 355,889,3535
Is it ips 1gb ram .

Micromax a78!! Rooted!!!!

MICROMAX A78 ROOTED!!!
Guys!!! Micromax a78!! rooted!!!
So, here are the steps on getting root access on MICROMAX A78-
What you need
1. MICROMAX A78, data usb cable.
2. Download the Rooted Boot image file from the attachment below this post.
3. Download SP Flash Tool v2.1 from HERE.
4. Download MTK65xx Driver from HERE.
5. Download the MTK6573 Scatter.txt file from the attachment below this post.

Installation Steps-
1. Unzip and Install the MTK65xx USB drivers on your Windows PC, just run setup.exe.
Connect your phone switched off and connect using USB cable. Windows will recognize and install the MTK drivers for your phone (any free COM ports) will be configured. Disconnect the phone. Do not switch on the phone
2. Copy the "rootedboot.img" file that you downloaded from my attatchment. Rename it to be boot.img
4. Extract and run SP flash Tool.exe (the one with Blue image icon)
5. Click on Options, check USB mode.
6. Click on Scatter-loading button which is on the right side below Downloading Agent. A window will open. Browse to your downloaded scatter.txt file. By default you will have only one map file of name MT6573_Android_scatter. Select this
7. The flash tool will populate the Map file on the application window. You will see multiple Entries such as
PRELOADER
DSP_BL
MBR
etc etc. Each will have a check box which is by default checked.
8. UNCHECK all entries EXCEPT FOR "BOOT". Leave boot checked. Now click on the "BOOT" just right to the checkbox and browse and select the boot.img (which was earlier rootedboot.img) file you downloaded from the attachment below.
9. Now click on "Download" on the Application or press F9 on keyboard. Warning messages will occur, but ignore them..
10. You will see in the status bar below "Searching"
11. Connect your phone (switched off and with battery inserted) via the USB cable.
12. Flash tool will do its stuff. First a red progress bar, then a count down, a quick yellow progress bar and final window showing Green Circle.
If you get this then Congrats You have flashed the unlocked boot.img!
NOW FOR ACTUAL ROOTING:
1. Restart your phone, now when the phone boots up, enable "usb debugging".
2. Now run SuperOneClick, and click "root"..after the process finishes, the a78 will be fully rooted with Superuser app installed!!.
Check by installing root checker from play store!!!
Enjoy !
Warning - Please follow the instructions. Don't mess around with anything else. Not responsible if you do anything else and brick your device !
In case you get any other error on SP Flash Tool, then recheck your MTK driver installation. Try on another PC.

Hi,
Facing a strange issue and that too at very first step. When I am connecting the phone (Switched Off) to USB Cable after Driver Installation, Windows detects the device and tries to install MT65xx PreLoader. But after a few seconds, it shows the error: Device Unplugged.
Can you plz help to resolve this ?
Thanks,
Param

TO MAKE BACKUP: in recovery mode enter backup and restore, and backup it will take few mins
TO COPY BACKUP: in recovery mode find mounts and storage and turn on usb mount and connect your phone to computer while being at that mode a removeable drive will show up copy the clockworkmod folder
Okay now listen carefully go to the folder where you downloaded the rom (the one you downloaded from me) find the file system.img
rename it to system.yaffs2.img
then go to the folder where you copied the backup to you will find also system.yaffs2.img there replace that file with the file from the rom (the one you renamed earlier) next open the file "nandroid.md5" with notepad delete all the text it has and save it
now copy this folder back to your phone (replacing the old folder) and the Super su zip u downloaded earlier reboot your recovery (after copying back the backup it is important) NOW:
- factory reset
- go to backup and restore -> advance restore ->restore system
- go to update from sd card and select the super su zip
- reboot your phone normally
After the reboot your phone will be rooted But your imei will be lost
Here what you will do restore your imei:
1. remove all sim cards from phone ,turn on the phone in normal mode and connect it
2. open mtk tools press root button it will ask you for some thing just click ok
3. Click replace imei and enter the imei numbers (can be found on phone box or back of phone)
4. Click ok reboot your phone check for updated imei numbers
And Congratulation Your Phone is Rooted

simply root it with Vroot
This method is very complicated just simple root it with voot 1.7.2 sofware , you just all those drivers witch come with Q mobile software. Juts simple put mobile in dubugging mode , once sofware detected your mobile just simply press the Root button , your wmobile will restart once and its finally rooted . No need for all this stuff. I rooted my friend's A2 Classic with that method , if you want some screenshots i can provide that to.
Easy Rooting Method.
- I am not responsible for bricked phones
-and i am also not responsible if someone hit a bricked phone in your head
-don't worry your data remain safe :laugh::laugh:
Method:
first and first download the software from attached files below the post :good::good::good:
1) Install all the drivers (as the original post suggested ADB and VCOM )
2) turn USB debugging on.
3) Install the software , its in chinese but not very difficult to understand Just press the middle button once installed it should be looked like this (check the attachment )
4) press the button , let the software do its things, once your cell phone restart check the SU app in the drawer.
Caution: Do not Factory restore your phone after freezing apps or modification you will end up in a boot loop.
So what you do with this little Rooted device ?? duh off course make ext 4 partition on your SD Card and link your newly download aps using link2SD . no worrying of low space

How to install drivers????
---------- Post added at 04:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:50 PM ----------
Never mind problem solved....
Windows 7 installs drivers automatically
No need to install them seperately.
Just keep in mind though...run the contents of root Xolo q2000 from root of any drive (i.e not from any folder)
This should do the trick...
Enjoy !!!

You can create your own CWM my friend.
1. You have to use MTK Droid Tools to get the Block Map for the phone. Download and install MTK Droid Tools. Turn your phone on and make sure the USB Debugging is on. Now connect the phone to your computer via a USB cable. MTK Droid will recognize the phone. Now, just click the Blocks Map button and click the Save button to save the scatter.txt file in a directory you make. You will need the scatter.txt file in the next step. This step only works for a rooted phone. Your phone is rooted so you can do this. (For those who don't have root access, there is a button on the bottom of the MTK Droid window to temporarily root the phone...but it may not work). DISCONNECT YOUR PHONE FROM THE COMPUTER. And turn your phone OFF.
2. Next you must use SP Flash Tool to make a backup of the complete ROM. SPF will ask you to select the scatter.txt file. Once you select it, select the Read Back tab. Click on the Add button. It will create a record to indicate what you want to back up. Click on the file name and you then select the folder where you want to place the ROM (it is automatically named ROM_0). Then it will ask you for the starting address and the length. The starting address is 0x0. To determine the length of the backup, you have to read the scatter.txt file. Look at the "linear starting address" of the Cache partition. That is the number you want to use for the length. You write it like this "0xnnnnnnnn". Then click enter. So now the SPF knows what you want to backup from the phone and where it will store the backup.
3. Next, click the Read Back button. The SPF is now waiting for you. There's no need to rush. Turn your phone off (if you haven't turned it off yet). REMOVE the battery from your phone. Connect the USB cable from the computer to the phone then put the battery back in the phone. Do NOT turn the phone on. The SPF will then backup your ROM. This step could take almost an hour to finish. Go make yourself a nice cup of coffee.
4. When the backup is done, you will see a big green OK dialog. You can now disconnect the phone. Your backup is saved as ROM_0 in the folder you selected. Now go back to MTK Droid Tools. Turn your phone back on. Make sure USB Debugging is still on. Connect the phone to the USB cable again. Once MTK Droid Tool recognizes the phone, go to the Root, Recovery tab. Click the button that says "Process ROM from the file." It will ask you to select the ROM_0 file you just backed up. This process will turn your ROM_0 into the partition files that make up your firmware. During this process, it will ask you if you want to make the CWM recovery!
Let the whole process complete. It could take a half hour or more. When it is done. The firmware and the CWM image will be in the MTK Droid folders. Just look through the folders under MTK Droid on your hard disk drive.
Please, when you are done, share the scatter.txt file and the CWM recovery.img with us.
And don't forget to click the Thank You button if this helped you in any way.

Thanks for sharing this. Is the CWM recovery installed on the device at this point, or does it still need to be installed?

No. At this point, the CWM recovery image has been created in one of the folders on the computer. You next have to install it on the phone via SP Flash Tool.

There may be a problem. I tried to use a SKY 4.0D with MTK Droid Tools. For some reason, it doesn't work. I think there's an issue with the kernel. This means that someone needs to port this phone's recovery to CWM or TWRP. Hopefully, someone has already done this...but the community/developer support for these devices is non-existent unfortunately.
Once the custom recovery is available, you have to flash it onto the device, either with SP Flash Tool (you just need the scatter.txt file which you xan get from MTK Droid), or you can root your phone, install Busybox, and install Flashify to flash it to the phone.
IDEA: Start a separate XDA thread for SKY devices. They are cheap but beautiful devices. Maybe some technical folks who are skilled in porting recoveries may show up just for the challenge.

I got that...but was curious how you did it. Did MTK Droid Tools work for you? Or was it some other method?

Sorry for my non helpful reply was really busy yesterday coding. I used MTK droid tools it didn't work the first time, I backed up my device again made the CWM recovery for the second time and it than booted into CWM perfectly. If you're having issues than it may be because of root I had used a one click program but it never fully rooted my device I had issues until I fully rooted on mtk droid tools ?

BTW, you should share your CWM image on say Mega.nz and post up the link so others less skilled can download and flash it. It really helps, and you'll be thanked profusely.
Also, please consider sharing what rooting program or method you used to properly root your phone. My preferred method for properly rooting MTK devices is to first flash a custom recovery using SPFT, then install SuperSu zip from the SD card. This way, I'm not having to deal with or replace Chinese super user programs.

STEP 1. Download MTK droid tools. I rooted the SKY 5.0Q with Kingo root I than used MTK droid tools to fully root the device by clicking the root button. STEP 2. Back up the phone using droid tools, its going to ask you if you want CWM built into the recovery make sure to click yes. During the process it will ask if you want to flash the new recovery image, go ahead and click yes. STEP 3. Your phone should now be rebooting into CMW now, go through it to make sure it works correctly. If it doesnt then re flash the NEW recovery boot.img that you just made.
*PLEASE NOTE: SuperUser is automatically put onto the device when rooting with Kingo root.*

You can create your own CWM my friend.
1. You have to use MTK Droid Tools to get the Block Map for the phone. Download and install MTK Droid Tools. Turn your phone on and make sure the USB Debugging is on. Now connect the phone to your computer via a USB cable. MTK Droid will recognize the phone. Now, just click the Blocks Map button and click the Save button to save the scatter.txt file in a directory you make. You will need the scatter.txt file in the next step. This step only works for a rooted phone. Your phone is rooted so you can do this. (For those who don't have root access, there is a button on the bottom of the MTK Droid window to temporarily root the phone...but it may not work). DISCONNECT YOUR PHONE FROM THE COMPUTER. And turn your phone OFF.
2. Next you must use SP Flash Tool to make a backup of the complete ROM. SPF will ask you to select the scatter.txt file. Once you select it, select the Read Back tab. Click on the Add button. It will create a record to indicate what you want to back up. Click on the file name and you then select the folder where you want to place the ROM (it is automatically named ROM_0). Then it will ask you for the starting address and the length. The starting address is 0x0. To determine the length of the backup, you have to read the scatter.txt file. Look at the "linear starting address" of the Cache partition. That is the number you want to use for the length. You write it like this "0xnnnnnnnn". Then click enter. So now the SPF knows what you want to backup from the phone and where it will store the backup.
3. Next, click the Read Back button. The SPF is now waiting for you. There's no need to rush. Turn your phone off (if you haven't turned it off yet). REMOVE the battery from your phone. Connect the USB cable from the computer to the phone then put the battery back in the phone. Do NOT turn the phone on. The SPF will then backup your ROM. This step could take almost an hour to finish. Go make yourself a nice cup of coffee.
4. When the backup is done, you will see a big green OK dialog. You can now disconnect the phone. Your backup is saved as ROM_0 in the folder you selected. Now go back to MTK Droid Tools. Turn your phone back on. Make sure USB Debugging is still on. Connect the phone to the USB cable again. Once MTK Droid Tool recognizes the phone, go to the Root, Recovery tab. Click the button that says "Process ROM from the file." It will ask you to select the ROM_0 file you just backed up. This process will turn your ROM_0 into the partition files that make up your firmware. During this process, it will ask you if you want to make the CWM recovery!
Let the whole process complete. It could take a half hour or more. When it is done. The firmware and the CWM image will be in the MTK Droid folders. Just look through the folders under MTK Droid on your hard disk drive.
Please, when you are done, share the scatter.txt file and the CWM recovery.img with us.
And don't forget to click the Thank You button if this helped you in any way.

Did you turn on the USB Debugging? When you connect your phone (with Debugging on) you will need to respond to the dialog that pops up on your phone to allow the computer to have access! If you do not turn on debugging or is you do not respond to this dialog, MTK Droid will not be able to see your phone.

Yes I did I did everything, I even tried it on windows 7 and 10 (pc and laptop)
and I still get the same results, I even deleted all MT drivers with usbdeview and reinstall, same thing
UPDATE:
Ok I got MTK Droid tool to detect the phone but I was unable to extract the scatter file, after numerous attempts I was informed that the Latest MTK DROID TOOL will not work 100% with the MT67xx chipset devices, maybe in the next update.
