Symphony W150 (MTK6589) ROOT, CWM and Themes Hack - Miscellaneous Android Development

Hi. recently i got in Symphony W150. Its quite good specs and quality in such a price (BDT 1700, around 167 Euros). This is almost same as GIONEE ELIFE E3 except 1gb storage. Gionee ELIFE E3 comes with 16gb storeage Anyway it takes my whole day to search and find the way to install CWM recovery in to that phone. though root was easy. So I collect all the necessary info for Symphony w150 and describe here very easy and simple way How to root and install Clockwork mod recovery (CWM) on Symphony w150. But first DO AT YOUR OWN RISK AND PROBABLY YOU WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

CLOCKWORK MOD RECOVERY (CWM) FOR SYMPHONY W150.
This is very critical part. one mistake may brick your phone. so pay attention unless u dont want expensive paper weight )
1. Make scatter file with MTKDROID. Press block map then in new window press Create Scatter FIle.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

2. Open SP Flash Tools. Load the scatter file created on step 1 then click Read Back.
3. Click Add. then double click on N/A then save.
4. Now in Read back block start address, In the length box copy cach from scatter file created on step 1. Remember it start from 0x.... like this.
5. Now poweroff phone and disconnect from PC. In the SP FLASH TOOLS Press Read Back. wait 1-2 sec then connect the POWEROFF phone to same USB as previous. SP FLASH Tools Should connect the Phone and start reading. here have patience. for me it took around 35 min. When its done just close the new green circle window.
6. If goes ok then then disconnect the phone and power on. Open MTKDROID and connect phone then go to root, backup, recovery and select To process file ROM_ from flash tool. Browse the ROM created on step 5. after succesful unpacking it will offer to create CWM and then press yes. It will create CWM recovery for your Symphony w150. Remember the path where it unpack the ROM.
7. After task complete in MTKDROID disconnect the phone and switch off. then go to SP FLASH TOOLS. In scatter loading browse the MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc created on step 6. Uncheck all ticks except recovery. click in recovery and select the MTKDROID prepared recovery. Click DOWNLOAD. if everything ok then close the new green circle window. Remember you check only recovery in this section. otherwise your phone maybe brick.
8. Now disconnect the phone. Press and hold Vol+ and Power together and You will get synphony logo. after 1 sec you will see CWM on your phone. dont take out your finger untill u see CWM.
HD Theme Hack on Symphony W150
As i told previously symphony its just re branded Gionee ELIFE E3 except minor storage change, it is possible to download more theme other then few stock themes include on the phone.
1. download build.prop editor from play store.
2. open build.prop editor and grant superuser.
3. search "theme" on build.prop editor
4. change the value of :
" ro.gn.theme.net.support" no to yes.and save.
" ro.gn.theme.style " 0 to 1 and save.
5. Now search "change" on build.prop editor and change the value of :
"ro.gn.change.support " no to yes.
Now reboot your device and check in theme section have download option. but its painfully slow speed to download though.
whole process will take around 1 hour. so be patience and do only if you know what you are doing. thanx and happy Nandroid.

You say screenshot with the device?
Tighten pressing buttons along the POWER and VOL -.

Okay. I understand.
You can do it again with MTK Droid and take "printscreen". If you want to of course.
For me there is no need. However I found it strange that you not put a link to your CWM.
But it is your choice...........

{OEM}[ROM][TUTORIAL] Micromax Funbook Original Livesuit Image LEAKED !!

UPDATE : just a quicknote, i just found out that this img file makes the /system partition of 503Mb instead of 251Mb as other img for MOMO9 or older tablets, So in order to have a bigger partition, one can flash this, then install anyother rom, for instance, cyanogenmod 9/10 full version instead of lite. Good luck flashing guys
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hey everyone,
Presenting a leaked version of ORIGINAL MICROMAX FUNBOOK livesuit image for P300 Model (from MM SC ). If you want to revert back to original rom, worry not, no need to copy that backup file & restore using CWM recovery. Some of us were even having trouble to revert back to original with cwm backups ( failed to restore /system error!). so here is it the answer to getting back to the factory state of our tablet.
Procedure:-
JUST DOWNLOAD THE 7z FILE, EXTRACT AND FLASH THE MMX_Funbook_P300.img IN THE SAME FASHION AS OTHER LIVE SUIT IMAGES. FOR TUTORIAL ON LIVESUIT & DOWNLOADING LIVESUIT REFER :-MOMO9 LIVESUIThttp://tabletrepublic.com/forum/ivi...-ployer-momo9-firmware-rom-releases-1610.html
Congratulations on getting 100% original software installed on your rom. Go & claim your warranty if you want ( tho MM suck at it to the core )
POST INSTALL NOTES
Once you have flashed this image, you will find yourself with following specifications :-
Baseband 1.2
Build Number 97F1-D1-H2-MMX.20120914
If at this point you want to get another rom installed or you have to get root, install superuser & get clockworkmod recovery the old methods does not hold any good. You have to follow this procedure to get root & install cmw recovery. THIS METHOD IS SAME AS FOR ALL ROMS WITH BASEBAND 1.2

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Getting the power of ROOT
Now the easiest way to get root is to use UnlockRoot software which works as a charm with our funbook device. Just connect usb cable, enable debugging & press unlock on the software. Then after the tab is restarted (by the software) you get root & superuser installed.
Getting CMW recovery on the tab
Once rooted we need to install ES File Explorer on our tab. Once installed, Go to settings, in root options tick the all boxes
Make sure superuser prompts, hence verifying successful installation of superuser. If not GET SUPERUSER UP & RUNNING FIRST.
Then navigate to the root folder by pressing back key. Stop where it says press back again to exit. ( in address bar the address will be / )
Next there will be a folder named Dev(/). long press on this folder & scroll down to set properties. Then click change, check all the boxes are ticked
Repeat the above steps with data folder (/), block folder (/dev/block), nandg file (/dev/block/nandg)
Finally all the complex part is behind us, to ultimately install the CMW recovery now, just use your old cmw recovery script for ICS, run it & done, it will be installed. Reboot & check pressing the volume down key + menu key & power key.
Njoy guys .... have fun & oh .. hit thanks too

oh really sorry for such late reply ... but have you tried installing another copy (fresh copy) of livesuit from the internet ? have you properly connected the tablet by pressing the vol - & options button simultaneously & hitting the power key 10 times ???
i have tried almost all those firmwares out there for funbook or momo9 ... i have faced this issue many times but you might not be pressing the button configuration accurately ... rest assured your tab is fine & 6k is not a waste as u might think !!! GOOD LUCK & report back if you still face problems, i'll help you step by step if needed !

I haven't bought the phone yet but I did some research and found 2 methods but none on english :S
Hungarian - http://data.hu/get/6493358/Alcetel_OT_6030D_Root_HowTo.pdf
German - http://www.android-hilfe.de/5684068-post10.html
I tryed to translate the German text via Google, here it goes...
-Download first the files
CWM Recovery 6030D
Cwm Recovery 6.0.2.8 Neu!! Optional
MTK Droid & Tools 2.44 (without warez)
TWRP Recovery 2.4.4.0
VCOM Drivers
SpFlashtool
************************************************** ************************************************** *
MobileUncle Tools
Mobile Uncle Tools 2.8.0
-So you can very easy to flash the patched recovery
Here we go:
-Idol connected on the PC (USB debug mode must be active) and install drivers if needed
-(Must be quick startup disabled) SPFlash run tools, Scatter file and then load cwm recovery to download press idol off
-Idol on the Pc connected (the drivers are installed automatically)
-The SPflashTools will now flash the Cwm recovery. If a green circle appears everything went well.
-Unplug the cable, run MTKDroidTools.
-Switch on with Power & Volume + and simultaneously connect the smartphone to the PC
-Once this is recognized (as comic characters will appear, but everything is ok), go to "root, backup, recovery and super user click on it that can be installed.
-The display during the root process remains dark all the time with me. So do not panic
-Unplug the cable, wait a minute and long press on the power button until the logo appears idol
-I had to update suspersu (after first boot) ... but is normal.
-You can also make a backup, although that will not be complete. Important is the boot.img and recovery.img are here.
-caution: After a reboot the CWM recovery is overwritten by the stock recovery. Personally, I would leave it there so far is no 100% functional recovery
The idol is now rooted
The CWM and TWRP recovery is not 100% functional. The Custpack partitions get no support.
edit
With Mtk Droid Root Tools & backup works fine)
Hope I helped Cant wait to get the phone, just 20 days to go...
What are your impressions about the phone?
Edit: Forgot to say, this is for 6030D but it will maybe work on the other two models... Hopefully

Please check the scatter file maybe it's incorrect. Try re-creating it once again. The Cusotm Recovery has to be smaller or equal than the recovery partition size in the scatter file.
Finallx got the phone! It's so cool! Love the slim box and it's sooo fast! Anyway, i read something about the phone losing the DRM licence after root. Now, what does this DRM licence do and can we use this phone normally without it? As much as i got it, this has something to do with the licences for the apps...

After losing DRM, you can lose GSM signal all the way, I do not want to play with it...
@H377
Are we losing DRM after rooting?
Is that tutorial for 6030X also?
Does stock recovery owerwrite custom cwm (which we need to install) after rooting/rebooting?
Hi,
I still can use all the features on the phone after root, so I'm not quite sure if we loose anything. Still can play videos, MP3s, so all the apps work. Haven't noticed anything yet.
I think you can root the 6030X also with this procedure just be sure that you use your own scatter file extracted from your own phone. Then you cannot really mess anything up.
If you flash the stock recovery to the phone after rooting it will definitely overwrite the custom one. So normally it doesn't overwrite it automatically only if you manually flash it.

So I need to download stock recovery with flash tool, to flash after rooting?
Also, cwm recovery in tutorial is good, no need to mod any other recovery, just to use scatter which I made with MTK?

It depends on:
If you have rooted the phone you can leave the custom CWM on it no need to reflash the stock recovery. But if you want to you can flash the stock back. It's all up to you.
I'm asking because I do not need cwm for now, just need root and everything else to be stock... Thanks, I will try this method...

I know that in both cases battery doesn't work at all. I personally try all different methods before posting..

Karbonn A12+ All Things Root Thread

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?
CWM recovery
karbonn a12+ got root but after flashing cwm from mobile uncle tool it get into old recovery only ............help
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:
my phone s dead
i rooted my a12+ as per ur giude and everything was fine for two days den suddenly it stopped working it does not even boot into recovery mode . please help !!
Nice, found another similar method over at Tech Junction.

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?

Installing twrp and rooting the sm-t116 (tab 3 lite 7.0 3g)

IM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR TAB OR DECIDE TO BE CARELESS OR CREATE A CYCLONE... you know the drill.
HOW TO ROOT SM-T116 TAB 3 LITE 7.0 3G VOYAGE-XX ( Galaxy Tab 3 Lite VE (3G) (SM-T116 ))
After searching for over a month on how to root/install twrp all i cound find were instructions for the SM-T110/1...
if thread already exists pls notify
N.B I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THIS RECOVERY IN ANYWAY
I am writting to help fellow SM-T116 owners... Since ive been searching for a long time.... I believe there isnt a guide to root this Tab yet.
- N.B MAKE SURE you device's code name is goyave or goyave3g
1. Download the twrp recovery here
- download the recovery in .tar format...
- you will upgrade to v3 manually.
2. Download Odin v3.10.* here
-> copy them to a place you know on ur pc such as Desktop
3. Boot your Tab 3 lite to download mode by: pressing "power + home + vol down"
-> believing all your drivers are installed correctly
3.1 open Odin*.exe ,
3.2 connect your tab and press volume up...
-> at this stage Odin should recognise your device
on the ID:COM section like
{
"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"
}
4. UNTICK AUTO REBOOT or you wont be able to enter recovery
5. Tap pn AP and go to the recovery you downloaded.
select it
6. Press on Start to begin the flashing process
-> After Odin flashes the recovery it will tell you PASS!
7
7.1. Preas and hold POWER + VOLUME DOWN
7.2. when the screen goes black change and hold HOME + VOLUME UP
Now you will enter TWRP... stage 1 done.
rooting on post #2:good:​
Now TWRP is functional... Time to root.
1. Download Chainfire's SuperSu flashable zip here
-> and thanking is not a crime.
2. Reboot to recovery...
ALLOW TWRP TO MODIFY THE SYSTEM PARTITION
3.1. Select install
3.2. navigate to your supersu zip
/sdcard/* or /extsdcard/*
-> when you are at the folder where your zip is it will be on the dialog on the right.
4.1. select it
4.2. swipe to confirm
4.3. select wipe cache/dalvik and reboot...
Now you have a Custom Recovery and you are rooted... Doors open.
Becarefull to not to open the wrong doors ​
THE PEOPLE WHO MADE THIS POSSIBLE
CREDIT GOES TO:
BIG THANKS TO TeamWin - TWRP FOR THE AWESOME RECOVERY AND
CHAINFIRE for the awesome supersu

I have this tab as above, it is locked(programmed) using an administrative app named Cellwe EMM. Basically i cannot download anything on this tab with neither usb nor sdcard including the internet. All i have to do to get rid of this security is wipe using custom recovery. When i get the tab in download mode it has this MDM DOWNLOAD BLOCK which block me from flashing and installing custom recovery in this tab. My only hope is if i can create an update.zip for twrp or cwm to be installed in this tab using stock recovery. This is where i need help,can someone create this for me or help me with a guide to do this

Hahaha not possible... the update.zip need to be signed by Samsung specifically...
Unless you get a modified stock recovery which needs to be flashed via Odin...
