Try making recovery.img and boot.img backup through SP-FlashTool, then use MtkDroidTool to patch both imgs.
1: Open MtkDroidTool, connect your phone, click on Blocks Map button.
2: Write down 9th and 10th (9th=bootimg, 10th=recovery) row's Scatter and Size and click on Create scatter file button.
3: Open SPFT, click on Scatter-loading button and select that scatter file.
4: Click on Read Back tab, then click on Add button, then double-click on added item in listbox.
5: Set filename to boot.img, then change Start address to 0x(9th-row's-scatter/bootimg's-scatter) and Length to 0x(9th-row's-size/bootimg's-size).
6: Repeat 4th step, but this time set filename to recovery.img, then change Start address and Length as recovery's scatter and recovery's size.
7: Unplug phone from PC and remove and re-insert battery in phone (don't start phone)
8: Click on Read back button in SPFT, then plug in usb in phone.
9: After read back is done, take out cable then open MtkDroidTool, then select root, backup, recovery tab.
10: Tick To choose the boot.img file and click Recovery and Boot button, then select boot.img and recovery.img.
11: Copy scatter file and open MtkDroidTools folder, go to recovery and paste it there, then rename *_boot_patched_*.img and *_recovery_patched_*.img to boot.img and recovery.img.
12: Open SPFT and then select scatter file in recovery folder and flash boot and recovery.

Hello,
First thing is your phone is Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9502)
Second YELLOW light indicates that your phone is ROOTED but not permitted to MTKDroidTools.
'to use from phone' and 'backup' options only available when you grant permissions to MtkDroidTools by clicking on ROOT button (at bottom-right)
first use Backup to backup data from phone, then 'to use from phone' will be available for use.
or read this if ROOT button works:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44509214&postcount=407
if ROOT button doesn't work then read this:

Try going to recovery mode, if you are able to go in recovery mode, then there's ok.
other wise boot should be bricked, you have to find backup or flash files (or only boot.img) for your device!

[DISCUSSION][GUIDE][PORT][ROM] Alcatel One Touch 4030 S'Pop/Glory 2 Development

This thread is for discussion for the development of this device. All interested devs are very welcome to join and help.
I started working on this device since I got it day 1 on March 11, 2013. Slowly, I progressed to every step in learning more about this device. Since then, many have joined finding ways to make this device better.
UPDATE:
This thread is old and very few to none uses this device anymore. I will leave this thread here for your reference.
All of the developments of this device will still be posted here so always keep in touch with this thread for great news.
Cheers! :good:
Unbrick theory...
trying the one touch upgrade utility. it wipes all data in phone and installs a fresh and latest ROM for the device. i guess this will also fix a bricked device somehow.
after this i will try to root it again using MTK tools and ap flash tools with a different idea in my mind... hope it works this time...
[EDIT] UNBRICK METHOD CONFIRMED WORKING!!!
One touch Upgrade
Hello there I'm a total noob in rooting and unlocking bootloads. I just got the same phone as my first android phone and wondered how to root it and I end up here. Now I'm asking how did you get the one touch upgrade software. I've searched the whole alcatel website but I keep getting on the FAQ page. Would you be so kind to put up the link for the software because I kinda bricked my phone here. I was also wondering what speed did you use during your Bin4ry script root attempt? Normal or Special? Keep doing a good job. Thanks for having the time to look for ways to root this phone.

I tried the normal mode as Bin4ry said that the others might brick the phone it it wasn't the right model. did you brick it using the srcipt? any way. still trying to root it and finding help from rua1 that has a great knowledge in MTK phones...
here's the link of the upgrade utiliuty... just install it and choose alcatel 4030 (if your phone is s'pop) then power of the phone remove the battery and follow the instructions on PC and wait till it says plug the phone while powered off.. plug the usb (without battery) then wait for it to detect the device. when it loads, put the battery back and wait for it to download the firmware.. it will take hours to download it.. it's about 2+gigs... good luck on unbricking.. hope it works...
Phone unbricked
Many thanks for the software. My phone is now back to stock rom. for the Bin4ry I also tried Normal because I thought it was for tabs only. So MTK is the only course of action? Any news on fixing the 2 point horizontal bug? and the alcatel FAQ says there's this TCL calibration that you can activate to you know "calibrate" the touch screen. Do you also get the problem where in the stock alarm app alarms but you can't dismiss it ( I set it to crazy mode ) where you need to press 3 buttons to dismiss but still won't stop I really need to pull the battery out. Help please Thanks in advance.

Great. So my theory really worked. Glad you unbricked it. I'm getting closer to rooting it. Just having problems flashing the cwm. Ones I managed to flash it, rooting may be successful. I use Mtk tools and flash tools and get help from rua1. Didn't use my alarm before so i'm not sure about the bug. Maybe you don't have to set it in crazy mode..
I tried to set the alarm in crazy mode and everything works fine. Just dismiss, unlock, and tap the three buttons with numbers and your done..
Rooted, finally!!
I finally rooted the alcatel spop. I will make a guide maybe later how I did it...

How to flash CWM recovery and root Alcatel One Touch S'POP 4030X(Glory 2)
Disclaimer: Your warranty is now void. You do this in your own risk. I do not take any responsibility to your device. This will definitely brick your device which is normal but follow the right instructions to make it work again.
Credits: This is tuts would not be possible without the help from the creator of MTKdroid tools, rua1 from XDA Developers. Thank the guy for his wonderful tool. If you wanna know how I did it, go to his thread right here. I also wanna acknowledge The Solutor and rimmon1971's efforts for porting the TWRP to our device. You can find The Solutor's work here.
Requirements:
1. A windows based PC
2. MTK Droid Root & Tools & SP Flash Tool
3. Universal ADB driver
4. One Touch Upgrade S
5. Root script
6. Patience
7. Most important! Use your brain!
Important!
To make this work without errors, don't use other drivers available in the web. Just install One Touch Upgrade S first. It will install the USB VCOM preloader driver. It will be needed by the SPFT to detect the phone. Use the provided ADB driver for the MT65xx_android_phone. If ever you get stucked in an error and your device wont boot anymore, just use One Touch Upgrade and your phone will be as good as new...
Guide: CWM/TWRP recovery
1. Download MTK Droid Root & Tools & SP Flash Tools, ADB Drivers, One Touch Upgrade S, and the Root script. Extract them anywhere in your computer.
2.Install ADB driver.This step is now optional to get adb working. You can now skip to step 5 if you just want to get rooted with CWM/TWRP recovery installed.. In your phone, go to Settings>Development. Set to on and check USB debugging.

}
3. Connect device to PC. Driver will fail to install (thats normal). Install UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi
Note: in Windows 8, this will pop-up. do this:
4. After installing the Universal ADB driver, go to device manager of your computer. Follow the images as descirbed.
ADB commands should work now (if you have ADB installed) and you won't have any problems about MTK droid tool not detecting phone.
5. Be sure that you have already installed One Touch Upgrade S before this step. Open SP Flash tool and select the scatter file by clicking on the Scatter-loading button.
6. UNCHECK BOOT and leave RECOVERY checked. Disregard what is on the photo. There's are reports that the latest firmwares are incompatible with the uploaded patched boot.img.
Note: By default, the CWM recovery will be selected in the SP Flash tool. If you want the fully working TWRP-recovery (I recomment this because CWM recovery is not fully functional), just click RECOVERY and replace it with this file.
7. Click Download button. Click yes on the download warning. Turn off phone, remove battery and connect the phone (without battery) and wait until SP Flash tool detects the phone and watch as it flash the image.
8. If everything passes without errors, unplug the phone, reinsert battery and boot to recovery by pressing power + volume up.
9. You should boot in CWM/TWRP recovery. We are ready to flash the Superuser app to gain root.
Guide: Superuser
You can use mtk droid root and tools here. Just plug in phone to pc while still in CWM recovery. Run mtk tools, wait to detect phone, click superuser, then build.prop, then delete china. Your done. Or use the guide below if you have problems with it.
Using CWM recovery to flash superSU
1. While still on CWM recovery, plug the phone into PC again.
2. Navigate using volume up and down buttons. Press Power button to select and Back soft key to go back.
3. Select mounts and storage>mount USB storage.
4. Copy the root-glory-2-4030E.zip to your sdcard.
5. After copying, select unmount and go back.
6. Select install zip from sdcard>choose zip from sdcard>root-glory-2-4030E.zip and select yes - Install root-glory-2-4030E.zip
7. It will flash the app to the system including all needed binaries. I also included the fix-permissions banary which is missing from the ROM.
8. Reboot the phone and wait. It will boot normally and no data will be lost. You will see superuser app in your app drawer. You are now rooted!:thumbsup:
Using TWRP recovery to flash superSU
1. While still on TWRP recovery,Connect the device to PC.
2. Tap mount in the screen then Mount USB storage.
3. Copy the root-glory-2-4030E.zip to your sdcard.

6. Wipe to confirm flash.

bootanimation problem!
I changed my bootanimation and tried if it works using these commands which i normally do with my past android devices.
Code:
adb shell bootanimation
the animation works fine but when i hit:
Code:
adb reboot
the animation showed was just android mask or android shine which shows when you don't have bootanimation.zip inside /data/local or /system/media. it's like a default bootanimation.
so once I booted, I tried again
Code:
adb shell bootanimation
the bootanimation works but when I reboot, it's back to default.
I tried replacing back the original bootanimation.zip but it still the defaut bootanimation. It's very weird. I haven't encountered this before...

Found out the cause of this issue. The stock ROM has no fix_permissions binary. So I pushed the binary and tried to fix perm again and now custom bootanimation.zip works!

Hello dude,
i have booked this phone, and i am seriously waiting for some reviews.
It would be great if there was a video review done by you on you tube or where ever you are comfy.
The specs are awesome but there are some negative opinions as well.
This would help.

only thing is RAM so many apps consumes more memory .waiting for tweaked ROM.other than that the phone is gud..
I prefer to use Titanium Backup to freeze unwanted app rather to uninstall.. this app will save lots of RAM..

Yes, We can install Custom ROMs (Themed ROMs or Ported ROMs). But, with kernel sources a lot of development can happen. :good:

No need to wait for a Custom ROM. You can try One-Power-guard app, Clean master and Greenify app's.

This mobile is good at it price with the spec's. Even Micromax is not providing kernel sources. Also, compared to the support of Micromax, iBerry is doing best.

[TUTORIAL] Install CWM or TWRP on Lenovo A850 (Root needed)

}
I am going to write you some simple steps to install CWM 6.0.3.4 / TWRP 2.5.0.0 recovery on your Lenovo A850.
I will be very detailed, advanced users should skip the boring stuff
This guide was writed based on this thread. A similar guide can be found at this thread. Look there for more info.
You will need:
- Rooted Lenovo A850 (simple guide here, not tested)
- Mobileuncle MTK Tools (GooglePlay)
- Recovery Image for A850 (CWM or TWRP)
BEFORE GOING ON, MIND THAT I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY IF ANYTHING HAPPENS ON YOUR PHONE.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!
INSTUCTIONS:
1. Download the recovery image:
First of all we need to find out what firmware version our phone has (ROW or CN).
I can see mine looking the Baseband version (located at Settings->About phone->Version Infos->Baseband version) which is "A850.ROW.v18", so i have a ROW firmware installed. I suppose it will say something like "A850.CN.vXX" if you have a CN filmware.
If you don't know which version you own, try one. If it is the wrong version, your phone will just not boot into the recovery. Reboot the phone and install an other version.
Now we can download the right recovery image version.
- For ROW firmware download this (Mirror 1 from source thread).
(This version of CWM never worked for me, scroll down at bugs)
- For CN firmware download this (Mirror 1 from source thread).
(Downloads include both CWM and TWRP recoveries)
After downloading, extract the content (use 7zip program). You will see 3 files, we will not need the "MT6582_Android_scatter.txt" file. You can delete it or keep it if you want to flash roms in the future.
2. Move the revovery image in you SD card:
Connect your phone on your PC and mount the SD card. Now move the recovery image you want in you phone's SD card:
- For TWRP is the "recovery_TWRP_2.5.0.0.img" file
- For CWM is the "recovery_z_CWM_v6.0.3.4.img" file
(You can delete the other one after that)
When the move finishes, disconnect the phone.
3. Install Mobileuncle MTK Tools:
Open GooglePlay on your phone, search for "Mobileuncle" and install Mobileuncle MTK Tools.
4. Install recovery: (IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING DO NOT PROCEED)
Open Mobileuncle MTK Tools. (You will be asked to give root permition to the app, select always yes)
Click on "Recovery Update" and the app will find the recovery image in your SD card. (in the first line, do not click any other recovery)
Click on the recovery image you selected (recovery_TWRP_2.5.0.0.img or recovery_z_CWM_v6.0.3.4.img), click OK to install recovery... wait some seconds, and then click OK to reboot into recovery.
Done! You are in the recovery
(If the phone reboots and then shutdown, the recovery.img didn't work. Try an other version.)
How to get into recovery: (2 simple ways)
- Power of your phone. Wait some second. Press the power button and bot h volume keys and not let them go until the logo appears (the phone will also vibrate). It takes up to 7 seconds to open, keep pressing the buttons until the vibration.
- With Mobileuncle MTK Tools, open it and click on "Into Recovery Mode".
Keys:
- CWM: Use volume keys and the power button to move around
- TWRP: Touch the screen, swipe etc.

Bugs:
- I got an error will trying to backup (CWM ROW version), "can't mount data" . If you face this problem, better install this CWM version. It worked for me
I cant download the cwm recovery image files from given mirror. Please attach another link for the download of files.. i wish to install cwm on my a850... i have a ROW a850... and will this cwm get rid of my chinese stock recovery.. the reason why i want to install cwm is because i cant understand chinese.. thank you in advance... hope you can help me.. thanks...

Click to collapse
I do not want to mirror the files since they are not my work. The links work fine, try again please
If you can't, try this file (ROW version ONLY). It is a different version, i have tested it, this is the version i am currently using. I do not remember who made it but his name is written in the recovery. Use at your own risk! I take no responsibility!
What will possibly happen when something goes wrong about installing cwm on my phone?.. will this get rid of my chinese stock recovery?... thanks again...

Yes it should get rid of the chinese recovery.
If something goes wrong you will probably have to install a new recovery again, nothing special, but when you mess with your phone i do not know what you may click on. I do not know how experienced each user is, somebody can delete the whole rom of his phone clicking a wrong button... and i do not want him to come back and say "you did that".
thanks sir.. i've followed all your instructions.. i have installed TWRP on my a850 successfully... However the CWM does not work... CWM was the first recovery i tried because im much familiar with it but when i enter recovery mode, TWRP is the one installed... But still, i got a new recovery which i understand... Thank you very much sir and more power to you... If you have other mods for lenovo a850, can you please share it here... Thanks Again...
Thanks for your Tutorial, I have replaced stock recovery with TWRP successfully.
Do you have any custome ROM that can be flashed into this Lenovo A850 by using TWRP ?
I used TWRP to flash the ROM from this site xiaomi.eu/community/threads/4-2-14.23544/ , but failed (stuck at Lenovo logo at boot).

Even though i use CWM, the bootlogo stuck for me was not caused by the recovery.
I had the same problem. You must first install the s121 rom.
WARNING after the install you will not be able to get back just with a CWM, TWRP restore. (i believe you will have to flash the stock rom again to do so)
If you want to proceed, follow this video.
(when you click Firmware Update, wait 2-3 seconds and connect your phone WITH battery closed, that is what i couldn't do)
hi, what is my version ?

Just installed the CWM finally, yup it is in Eng and the most important part is wiping out the chinese language. thanks
I have to agree, sending to recovery terminal by using the hardware key power button + vol up/down key is just too difficult to do so, most of the time sent me to meta or factory mode. Mobileuncle tool works but what I am most preferred by using the button in case the ROM inaccessible and I am unable to reach mobileuncle to do the restoration.

I am trying to root the fierce 2 but it doesnt seem to flash the twrp recovery even though I am sure I did everything right! Nothing happens at the last step where you said to take out the battery then click download and connect the phone to the PC. Nothing happens the phone just shows the Actel logo and then vibrates and turns of then back on over and over. Any ideas?
Note I did not do step 5

Use my unbricking method to restore your device, and i don't think Step 5 should be a problem.
Phones not in boot loop it works fine. Just nothing happens when I click download and connect the phone without the battery.
check your pm :good:
