STEPS
Step 1 :- Download ES File Explorer and Rooting kit and Extract it
Step 2 :- Install RootMaster1.0.7eng.apk and Press Root privileges to Root the Device temporary.
Step 3 :- Open ES File Explorer In Settings Under tools Enable "Root Explorer" that will give permission to re-write.

You can also install stock recovery this way too just choose the Stock recovery file

[Q&A] This is answer Guide to fix 2G and 3G on new Kitkat Beta 1 for MMX A110

Here I am providing the step by step procedure to fix 2G on [ROM][WIP]KITKAT s9081 [MT6577] for MMX A110.
This ANS I am posting to stop spam on main thread where our most valuable devs are working.
Step1- extract the rar file attached you will find 2 files named
" BPLGUInfoCustomAppSrcP_MT6577_S00_MAUI_11AMD_W12_22_SP_V15_P6_1_3g_n" and "modem_1_3g_n.img".
Step 2 - Refer Screen 1- Open the Kitkat ROM in Win RAR, don't extract just open by double click on it.( if you don't hv then google it and download, its free ) Navigate to "etc/mddb/"
here you delete the file " BPLGUInfoCustomAppSrcP_MT6577_S00_MAUI_11AMD_W12_22_SP_V15_P6_1_3g_n"
and then add the attached " BPLGUInfoCustomAppSrcP_MT6577_S00_MAUI_11AMD_W12_22_SP_V15_P6_1_3g_n".
Use CTRL+C and CTRL+V button to copy the file and to add the file in to ROM zip. It will automatically repack this rom.
Step 3- Navigate to "etc/firmware/" as shown in screen 2 first delete the file "modem_1_3g_n.img" then copy and add to zip by pressing CTRL+V.
Note : You can use any software to add the files to ZIP, but If using win RAR the use buttons CTRL + V to paste the files to ROM Zip. It will repack automatically.
Then Flash the ROM as said in main thread
If I helped then press thank.
Also if anybody doesn't have PC or may be if you want to do all this in mobile then use
Power grasp file manager. Other apps are also there ....but I used this one.
