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:

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?

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

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...
Sent from my ALCATEL ONE TOUCH 6030X using xda premium
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...

Tips on using the ROM:
To charge normally (fast), turn off phone, plug charger, wait for a minute (till the charging animation goes off and phone is off again) and turn on phone. Now it will charge fast. This is the standard procedure for all JB ROMs. If you dont follow this, charging will be slow.
You need to turn auto-brightness off if the LED notification lights stay on even with screen is off!
Camera:
If you are not satisfied with the quality and performance of the stock camera app, use the bundled 'ICS Camera', or an app like 'Camera360 Ultimate' (free app from the play store). It will produce better quality images.
If you get a clicking sound when starting and closing camera, dont worry, read this
Superuser:
Before installing anything, first activate root permission from 'Permissions' app in 'Security ' folder. Select 'manage root permission' and enable it.
This only needs to be done once, and all superuser prompts will come as usual when you install/use root apps.
If you installed or tried to use any root apps before doing this, and your app no longer gets root access, reinstall that app. Also includes a custom hosts file, which you have the option to remove if you want to see ads.
Battery:
To see percentage battery indicator on the status bar, go to settings->battery and change the battery indicator style
Performance:
To make the UI transitions faster, you can use the good old standard tip:
Go to settings->developer options
Set 'window animation scale', 'transition animation scale' and 'animator duration scale' all to "0.5x". UI animations will seem twice as fast after doing this.
If the ROM becomes slow over time, do a reboot.
And try not to do a lot of stuff in the first few seconds when SD card scanning is going on, sync is going on or when apps are updating in the background. Its not right to complain of "this/that doesnt work" or lag when you do that
Some cool tips and tricks to improve your MIUI experience(taken from the official site)
Tips, tricks and shortcuts
Credits
Firstly, I want to thank kqstone,hasz and xda- developers team , without them this rom would not be possible.
This ROM has been ported from various other devices having official MIUI support and the MIUI team deserves credit for all of that.
Thanks to Drganbds and Mr.Jhakass for rooting and ClockWorkMod Recovery without which we cant.
Thanks rugglez for the awesome tips to make this rom smooth which you'll find in the post

Fly F53s Change boot logo + boot animation + shut animation
Here is the MOTO boot animation.
{
"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"
}
Steps to follow.
1: Get the bootanimation zip from the media folder.
2: Copy zip to your SD card
3: Use Es explorer or any root explorer(I use android commander for system file access.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=597098)
4: Cut and paste your original boot animation and shutanimation zip file somewhere in your memory card (if you wish to keep a backup).
5:copy the boot animation you downloaded in to /system/media and check if the permissions are rw-r—r—. If not, change them to that.
6. Create another copy of zip and name it as "shutanimation"
7. You can also change/disable the boot/shut sound by naming "bootaudio" and "shutaudio".
reboot and enjoy!:good:

Rooting Fly F53s Success
OP, you can use root master ( just google "VRoot_1.7.0.3882_Setup.exe").
it is a Chinese rooting desktop program.
you will find some threads in this forum also (forum.xda-developers.com) regarding root master, but they might not give you all the required files.
after rooting, install CWM author's superuser app from play store & disable the Chinese superuser app.
you can also uninstall the other Chinese app which is installed by the root master.
Do not forget to hit :good: thanks :good: if you get benefited !

It is probably the key testing mode. Take your battery out and reboot your phone normally.

Well, I just purchased this device and came here after that to look at what we had and I'm disgusted.
And there are several reasons for that, being:
1 - Locked Bootloader...
2 - This forum seems somewhat abandoned, which leads it to be somewhat disorganized.

Thanks to our friend repey6 > http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=5704037
TWRP 2.8.7.0 is now included, and it works just ok, with all functionality.
I strongly recommend you to use it instead of any other recovery. Just make sure to backup your ROM again after installing it, as CWM or Carliv backups won't work in TWRP.
I replaced the old TWRP included in the attachments with the new one provided by repey6, but the installation process remains the same.
Plus, this was not created by me and it's mad old (2014). But still it works better than the Carliv Recovery we have available here...
So Let's go. The proccess is the same for both, just choose the recovery image you want in the end of the topic.
(almost forgot to say that if your phone bricks it's you responsibility, I tested it in mine and it is working fine)
STEPS:
STEP1- Root your phone (if it's not rooted yet).
To root your phone you'll need to:
a-Download the framaroot APK provided in the attachments
b-Install it then click in the Boromir option and the su binary will be installed.
c-Download SuperSU from google play store.
That's all, simple like that.
STEP2- Check your bootloader's S1 Version
a-Open your dialer and input *#*#7378423#*#* , then go to Service Info>Software Info> S1 Boot Version.
b- Check if yours is 2.14.J.2.6 or 2.14.J.2.13 or 2.14.J.2.16 . If yours is one of these go ahead, it should work just fine and you can proceed.
If yours is 2.14.J.0.68 do not proceed, as it will 100% brick your phone.
c- My phone has S1 Boot Version 2.14.J.1.15 and in spite of the developer having not mentioned anything about it, I risked it all and my phone flashed the recovery normally, so if your version is also 2.14.J.1.15, it should work just fine and you can proceed.
STEP3 - Install the recovery
NOW, BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL HERE, OTHERWISE YOU WILL HARD BRICK YOUR PHONE:
a-Download the mobileuncle.apk file provided in the attachments and install it.
b-Download the twrp_xperia_C.img file provided below and put it in your internal memory (not on the external). Rename it to recovery.img, otherwise mobile uncle won't see it.
Now, here's the part you have to mind, so you won't brick your phone.
Mobile uncle can install a recovery using one of two methods. One is by installing the image from your internal memory (which we'll be doing). Other is installing it from the internet.
Now, YOU DON'T WANT to install a recovery from the internet, as mobile uncle doesn't provide any image for your device. So if you flash any of these recoveries, you'll never be able to make your phone boot again.
See in the image below and you'll get what I mean:
{
"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"
}
c - So, before proceeding TURN OFF YOUR WIFI AND DATA CONNECTIONS so that mobile uncle won't show any recovery from internet
d-Open mobile uncle.
e-Grant Super User
f-Press "Recovery Update"
g- With wifi turned off, you'll see only your recovery in the screen
h- Click it, the file size of the file I'm posting must be around 6MB ( 6210KB for CWM), if it's different cancel and download file again.
i- press ok and restart.
DONE
:good:
EDIT:
I just noticed that after flashing the recovery you might get your phone stuck in the SONY logo after it.
In fact it happened to me, but just once.
If that happens don't panick. Recove the cover of your phone and besides the SIM-2 slot you'll see a tiny role with the word "reset". Insert a needle in there and your phone will restart normally.

Thanks for the guide! Does this also work on the C2305 model, or is it strictly for C2304?

It should work in both, I'm using a recovery for C2305 in my C2304.
Just don't try flashing a C2305 ROM on your C2304. It will not hardbrick your phonw, but the SIM cards will not work and you will get a mad functioning phones.
Some custom ROM's based on stock firmware work in both though.
Hey anyone tried for xc 2305???
So my S1 bootloader version is: 2.14.J.0.68. Is it for sure there is nothing that can be done?

Sorry for the late reply! Haven't been able to test this until recently due to an issue getting my PC to work properly with my phone. Anyway, I would like to confirm that I was able to flash this on my Xperia C2305 that had S1 Boot Version 2.14.J.0.68. The photo below is proof of CWM running on my Xperia C2305:
Things you will need:
WMShua SuperFlash: http://soft.flushrom.com/WMShuaSetup.exe (after installing, you can change the language to English by renaming Program Files/wmshua/language to Program Files/wmshua/language_x)
Xperia C 16.0.B.2.16 FTF: C2305_16.0.B.2.16_TacoNikky.ftf or C2305_16.0.B.2.16_Congngheviet.ftf (pick one; I used TacoNikky's version)
Procedure:
1. Open WMShua, then click on Flash (not Super Flash). Browse to the FTF file you downloaded. You can choose to backup system before flash (I unchecked it on mine). Follow the screenshot below for guidance:
2. Turn off your phone. Next, hold down the Vol- (volume down) button on your phone. While holding down, plug in the micro USB cable. The LED will flash red. When it changes to green, release the Vol- button. WMShua should automatically try to install the needed drivers. After installing drivers, it will begin the flashing process. If your phone turns on instead, simply unplug it from the USB, turn it off, then try again.
The flash process may take a long time (it took 30+ minutes for me), and sometimes it may look like it hanged, but it's actually working. Just be patient. Once it reaches 100%, your phone will automatically boot up. Check your S1 Boot Version—it should now be 2.14.J.2.16. You may find that you've lost root, so you will need to root it again (I use KingoRoot). After rooting, follow the instructions on the first post to install CWM or TWRP. Good luck!
