3.ROOT Guide
By using Root with Restore by Bin4ry v15.7z(download from attachments)
1.Enable USB debugging on your device. To do that, go to Settings > Development > USB debugging.
2.Connect your device to any PC/laptop and install the drivers .
3.Unzip the root tool you downloaded above.
4.Change the mode of your device from USB Storage to Media Device and proceed further. This change can be done only when you have
connected your device to the PC, so don't go mad searching for this option before you have even connected your device.
6.Run the runme.bat file.
7.A command prompt with weird green letters will pop-up on your screen.
Follow the onscreen instructions carefully. To start off, you willl need to type in a "1" and press enter.
Note: If you ever want to Unroot your Micromax A88, follow the above steps till you reach this one and then, instead of typing "1", type "x" and hit enter. Follow the instructions that appear on the command prompt after that.
8Your device will reboot during the process after which Bin4ry will copy some files to your device.
9.Else just reboot your phone
10.When the green letters in the command prompt says Have Fun!
That means, your device is rooted now and you can enjoy Superuser permissions!

Canvas 2 Phones which come with pre build Jelly Bean OS, has some problem.
Micromax removed all the mount point permission, so this method will give a BROM ERROR : SOC_Verification_Failed !
With or without Battery, Phone should be completely turned Off.
In some case, with battery doesnt work At all !
I know that in both cases battery doesn't work at all. I personally try all different methods before posting..
But i recommend to remove battery cuz some may connect the fone before it is completely switched off. So in order to prevent any mishappening i choose the method of playing safe.
I do not want that anybody should brick his phone and than blame my thread!!

1. Install Framaroot.apk and open it.
2. Choose Install SuperSu, as SuperUser didn't work for me.
3. Then Click on "Boromir".
4. It will display a root confirmation message, click on "OK" and then "REBOOT" your device.
5 After reboot you will find SuperSu application in the App Drawer.
If you see the application then you have successfully rooted your device.

Hi,
I bought this phone in December and have already rooted and enhanced it with some tweaks but was wondering if anyone would port Kitkat or to this phone? Or even a dedoxed version of this rom? It is fast but Multi tasking freezes it up since system takes 3/4th of the RAM..
thanks

Salam Everyone
Is your Qmobile Noir A2 bricked??? :/
If your mobile is stuck on Logo!? not showing Recovery?! then you can do these steps to Unbrick your mobile
First of all i want to say that i take no responsibility to Loss or Damage to your Device or You
Firstly you must have a Full backup of your Device (that backup which is made by mtkdroidtools contains these files shown in pic here
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
)
If you have all of the above mentioned files then you can proceed
Things you need:
• SP Flash Tools to flash all backup files
• Qmobile A2 Drivers --> (MT65x3 USB VCOM drivers + ADB_usb_driver + pdaNet) https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5zdw0fe0c5o98u0/JRyKXydQn3
• Data cable
• CWM Recovery 6 View attachment Recovery(CWM6).img
• Needle
• and some knowledge
Procedure:
Okay so now install all drivers that are mentioned above!
after that connect your device and make your system recongnise your device obviously it fails as your device is bricked :/ but do this then
now open up sp flash tool and load scatter file that is present in backup folder in mtkdroidtools
when you select scatterfile it automatically check marks on some boxes including preloader, boot, logo etc
dont uncheck any of them and then check the recovery box and click on recovery
then select cwm6 (remember to rename cwm6 to recovery.img)
then click on Android and select system.img
see below image to see how to get system.img file
now click on download
immediatly connect you qmobile a2
then wait to install drivers
after drivers are installed (might give you installation failed if failed then proceed too)
after that press and hold needle in test point see image below
now sp flash tool start flashing your device keep and hold the needle pressed in test point
after two or three times loading sp flash tool will give an error click ok then
remove needle and remove usb
now turn on your mobile it will be unbricked
your phone has cwm recovery 6 installed with stock rom
Click thanks if it really did helped you
May work on qmobile a2 v2 but do at your own risk

QMobile Noir A2 Bricked
Assalam o'alaikum
I have been unable to boot my set after trying to root it by the test point method. Its version 3.
I have tried the above method too but it does not work on it. The reason may be that my mobile does not boot at all.
No logo screen rather it does not start even when I plug it in the charger it does not charge.
What could be wrong? When I tried your method it stucks at 4% when flashing by the flash tool.
It gives the error that the page file is not aligned. Please help me out as I am very worried.
If possible please give your cell no.
My cell number is 03218546135

Flipkart delivered my Karbonn A12+ three days back. The phone is a masterpiece to say the least. But looking at the development end of the phone, there is almost no dev support for the Karbonn A12+. Sensing that, I am starting this thread to spark some development for this device.
If you are unsure about buying this handset, here is a Detailed Review of Karbonn A12+. I have covered almost everything in the review, if you want to know anything else about the phone, do let me know.

Rooting:
Thanks to rohitm1991, we now know of a easy root method for Karbonn A12+.
Download SRSRoot One Click for your Windows PC.
Install Drivers for your phone using pdanet or Universal ADB Drivers.
Connect your phone using usb cable.
Click Smart Root in SRSRoot application on your pc.
A Prompt on your phone will ask you to install an app. Confirm.
When first two exploit fail, third exploit will launch, click Boromir on your phone and you will get a congratulation mesaage.
Reboot your phone.
If it doesn't work in first try, try again, worked for me with the exact same steps being repeated in the second try.
This video will help you in rooting:
And this one in unrooting:
Clockworkmod Recovery:
I have successfully ported Clockworkmod Recovery for our Karbonn A12+ with the help of MTK Droid Tools. I have created a special zip file to help you through the process. The files in the zip are pretty self explanatory but if you need detailed instructions, refer this guide.
Stock ROM
Thanks to chukzde, here is the cwm flashable zip of the stock rom.
I have took a full backup of the stock rom through:
SP Flash Tool, MTK Droid Tool and CWM as well. Shall upload when I have free internet to waste. Others are requested to upload one if they are blessed with a good internet connection.
Here is MT6572 Scatter file for you to use while flashing any stuff using SP Flash Tool.
Please note that old versions of SP Flash Tool will throw an error like failed to initialize on this scatter file. This file works fine with the latest version of SP Flash Tool (latest according to what I could find on the internet).
Sound Mod:
Rooted A12+ (and other device) users can use Viper Sound Mod to improve the sound quality of the phone speaker or any headset you use with it. I have shared my experience of the Viper Sound Mod on the Karbonn A12+ here.
Key Combinations:
Press and hold Volume Down + Power Button to get into Factory Mode. Selecting the only option with some english in it will factory reset your Karbonn A12+
Press and hold Volume Up + Power Button to get to a menu. In this menu, use Volume Up to scroll and Volume Down to select. From this menu, you can go to Fastboot Mode, Recovery Mode or boot normally.

Modified Stock Launcher for Karbonn A12+
- Persistent Search bar matched to look as Jellybean style
- KitKat style Folder previews/background and App Drawer icon
Steps to Install:
Before proceeding, just to be on safer side download any other Launcher from the Play Store and use that Launcher while performing the below steps.
- Download the modified Launcher2.apk
- Using any root file explorer of your choice (I personally use ES File Explorer) copy it into /system/app
- Set permissions as -rw-r--r--
Note: Don't touch the Launcher2.odex file.

How to change Setting After Rooting
I want to Know is it possible to change the Android Phone Setting like Karbonn A12+.
If yes how ?
I want to Add / change Setting to add RINGTONE Selection Option for TWO SIMs in the Phone.
As the Phone does not have ringtone selection Option for the two Sims. like in Karbonn A15.
Is it possible to have such.
I got this phone couple of days back. Is it having a 2MP camera on the back. In settings picture size shows max only 2MP. no options beyond that. Can you please confirm the back camera is 5mp or 2mp ?
Nice thread. now if someone can port MIUI on this then that would be a killer combination.
even i could give it a try, is there a guide for MTK devices?

A12+ stuck at boot
i have A12+ and have rooted it successfully:laugh: but then in hurry i have installed chainfire downloaded long ago which is not compatible with jellybean 4.2.2 and i am stuck in boot screen (the eye) , i have already tried wiping data and cache from recovery and i have not installed cwm i have stock recovery. i could have uninstalled it via adb but 4.2.2 have sideload only hence adb commands are not working adb shell returns error : closed error. now the only option i have is to flash stock rom which i have not backed up so it would be very kind of you to upload it .or i have also read that it could be achieved by installing TWRP recovery and then renaming some files and changing some values from this linkhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560607 , who had similar case like me .so if anyone could provide me the stock rom and preloader drivers it would be very helpful my mobile is just a week old :crying:

I have clockworkmod backup of stock Rom, about 940 mb in size but I don't have a decent enough internet connection to upload it.
can I boot into recovery mode if my a12+ got bricked..
(stucked at boot image or eye)
@suthar98.sunil, unless an Android device is hard bricked, you can boot into recovery mode. But unless you have flashed a custom recovery like clockworkmod (link in first post) or twrp and a device backup to restore, it won't be of much use.
Scrolling interrupted at borders
Whenever i'm scrolling down in any app, no matter how slowly, it goes smoothy but is always interrupted at the borders, like in calendar, at the border between two months,in play store home page, after each app tile; or in es file explorer, after each folder while in list view, the scrolling movement bumps a little at the borders and then continues again. It happens in every app but is more visible in these. can the framework files be modified in any way to solve this issue, as I've already tried the smooth scroll tweak in the framework file and am also sure the device does not lag.
Do any of you guys out there experience this issue too?
Please provide karbonn a12+ stock rom. Please
Thanks
i flashed cwm recovery, means i can boot into recovery mode if my a12+ is hard bricked or soft bricked?

So is there any method to access it?

One more thing the recovery can't be acessed by using volume keys.
It is only accessing through rom manager.
