Hi Guys,
Before you guys shoot me down, Just wanted to say, i searched XDA for 2 hours, couldn't find the exact reply. And a few topics are open since a year with no reply, So thinking that someone will reply to me. I am opening this "Need Help" Ticket.
I have a micromax a110 with 4.04 - as i got no update ever! So what i did was
Rooted the phone properly as per the procedure.
Downloaded the CWM 6.0.4.9 recovery [selinux] and flashed it with Recovery Link :http://forum.xda-developers.com/mic...opment/recovery-cwm-6-0-4-9-recovery-t2789175
Downloaded the [ROM][4.2.2] CanvaS5™ V1.1 Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2775553
After flashing the rom properly, when i reboot the phone, it gets stuck on the boot screen forever. Am i doing something wrong? Should i have flashed a kernel? or something. Please note, i am not looking into going back to stock, as i have moved into the dark side of the root world .
Since i have just been a Read-only user of XDA for all this while(more than a year), with no posts ever, i cant request for help on the Developer Thread as it requires privileges. Requesting someone to please post this topic there so i can speak to the dev or please give me a answer to help me:silly:

That Recovery you flashed is SELinux enabled and is not supported by 4.1-4.2.2 Jelly bean Roms so you have got boot loop . You can try other recovery or flash higher android version roms .
---------- Post added at 05:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ----------
I think this CWM recovery will work with your downloaded rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2204785
And remember before flashing anything clear data,cache and dalvik-cache.
Happy Flashing
Thanks guys for the reply, let me flash the above CMW and check. Will revert shortly
How to i put the CMW in the phones root directory now for it to flash? The phone doesnt start so cant access it through usb. Any ideas?

Since your phone is not booting you should use SP Flash tool on PC to flash the recovery. Here's a guide to SP Flash tool:

Thanks dude, for your quick response. I wont be able to confirm on this today as setting up SP Flash tool is just too hard. It talks about some scatter file. I dont know how to make that.Let me get a grip on that, will confirm then. Thanks for the help anyhow

Hey shreyas,
I have tried it with SP tools, it doesnt work, man. Drivers, Softwares, updated all of them, i keep doing everything. I know i am doing something wrong, but its hard to identify, spent like the entire night trying to make it. Can't i get a flashable zip for CMW instead or know that on which rom did the CWM selinux work on? This boot looping is now killing :fingers-crossed:
Finally, i found a way, thanks 4Shreyas for all the help. Gave me knowledge and helped me identify the errors.
I couldn't flash the rom or the cmw recvoery through the pc as the drivers for SP tools never worked on my Win 8.1 x64. Finally applied the stock jellybean file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160609 . It updated my CMW since that was the problem i was stuck in bootloop.
After that i flash the phone with my desired rom.
In the end, all good:laugh:

Cheers bro !!!! Yes getting MTK drivers in win 8 is a challenging task and as SELinux CWM recovery is concerned you can flash 4.3.x and 4.4.x roms . Google it , if any rom is available then use that recovery to flash those roms .
Enjoy !!

True that, i actually gave up trying to find the drivers. There arnt any 4.3 or 4.4.x roms released for mmx. When they do, will surely apply the Selinux CWM. Thanks for all the help .:good:

HY, if your question is how to flash recovery,than is pretty simple.First go to playstore,then find Rom manager,from there you will download CWM.Then reboot into stockk recovery(the one your phone allready has)/choose reinstall package (do it two times),and then reboot into recovery.IMPORTANT, do not erase the CWM file,because every time you flash recovery ,it needs the zip file. PLEASE PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED YOU!!!!

With this he could brick his device...If the phone doesn't have the recovery available or if it has a locked bootloader he can't do this. Please don't spread disinformation as it could harm other people's devices. And to the OP if you could get a stock recovery.img and if the bootloader is unlocked you could use the cwm builder to get the recovery and then fastboot to flash it.

You can't just flash any recovery on any device, doing so could PERMANENTLY DAMAGE it. I've been doing stuff like this for quite some time and I know stuff like this. And yes, he has to search about it. It will take more time but it will take a lot more if he destroys his device. And yes it IS YOUR FAULT if you give him completely wrong instructions and he destroys his phone by following them. So if you are unsure about something or you don't know something then don't post it, since it can only make things bad not help.

first of all thanks for the link...but do clarify one thing:
I have already installed drivers for my phone through pda net while rooting my phone..do i need to uninstall the drivers of the phone & again install it?
It will be greatly helpful if you mention the exact steps you have followed in your own writing rather than the pdf which you have given as it is not very clear.(no offense)
Your help regarding this will be much appreciated..ty!
If you already rooted your phone, install mobile uncle App from play.
Place the recovery in the root of SD card.
open mobile uncle and search for recovery update.
this app will install the recovery.
hope this helps..

You have to flash recovery using spflash tools
I tried many times with other methods but it always fails
flashing will void your warranty though, but you can reflash stock rom and act dumb at the service centre and they will fix your phone for free (done this twice)
Miui, lewa os, stock modified 4.2.1(by m_jani) are the only working non crashing roms I know of, let me know if you need their links
how do i...

Not working on my device
I have a rooted S-7500, with CWM recovery 5.0.2.8 installed. I (by mistake) allowed the 'software update' option to install a system update(or something) today by mistake (I know, you should never install system updates after rooting. My bad.) Since then, the phone directly goes to the cwm recovery mode on powering on, and i am unable to do anything else
I am not very well versed with the finer details of rooting bootloader recovery n all...so pls some details with steps...if possible .
Any help whatsoever...please I will be really grateful

Thanks!!! It totally worked!
Just a clarification...now that i have got the stock rom back on my phone...am i right in saying that I have lost root access, my phone is totally back to the 'original' state, and i have lost CWM as well? Please correct me if I am wrong.
And assuming that I am correct(above), I would like to re-root my device(need to use proxydroid to surf internet over the damned proxy server!). So..can I follow the standard method, ie, can I do it the same way I had done before, or do i need to do something different now?
And once again...THANK YOU for your help! I had ended up hard bricking my previous phone, and was really scared when this happend to my aceP. You saved me!
Easy way to ROOT your SGAP
Yes by the time you flash stock rom you loss root even any custom recovery you flashed before...
but now if you want to root your SGAP again don't follow that guide again which you done before just follow this :
Download ODIN from Downloading link below (inside ODIN software folder)
Download any one recovery which you like TWRAP / CWM v5.5 (inside Custom recovery folder)
Download Root_SGAP.zip from Root folder & place that zip inside in your sd card
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Download Link : GALAXY Ace Plus - Basic stuff
FOR Custom_Recovery :
Open odin, be sure your system has already install drivers & if kies is there close it.
extract recovery zip
connect device to pc in download mod (vol down + power + home) & select that (recovery) .md5 file in pda section inside ODIN software
Click start & wait to reboot device
FOR ROOT :
Now boot device in CWM mod ( vol up + down + power + home)
choose zip from sd card & select Root_SGAP.zip
DONE.

if you are going to stick on stock rom forever & only want to root device then stock recovery is ok for you...
but while dealing with custom roms, custom recoveries are smart choice.
it has lot of additional options than stock recovery.
so my opinion yes use custom recovery

Hey Thanks for reply, i resolved that issue by trying to turn on the phone by usb power, phone boots up normally but without any signal both sims are properly inserted but no signal (may be IMEI issue) how to resolve it???. ( procedure i followed for previous attempt, i am currently on JellyBean my stock android version(people say Mi509 come with KITKAT out of box but its not in case of my phone. i followed your procedure as it is, downloaded attachment and MobileUncle apk installed that apk , opened that uncle and selected recovery update and it automatically restarted.)
now i know that my standard Android Recovery was OVERWRITTEN by custom recovery and i DIDNT backup my stock recovery . what should i do. ( i read something about EFS partition which contains IMEI info which was corrupted by custom recovery i believe ). and also please send me backup of recovery partition (or EFS) to me @ [email protected] i will set my own IMEI nos using Enginering Mode apk . this is my only phone please help me

thats why i was asking about android version....
bcoz all roms and recovery available for MI509 uses KITKAT kernel and you flashed it on Jellybean...
here i attach the stock recovery of jellybean....
for fixing IMEI use this link.........
This will fix it permanently...

use database file from second link bcoz this database is for spice mi509....
and next time dont flash rom if you have jellybean

If your device I bricked then just flash stock firmware using sp flash tool...if you don't know how to ...
Then give it to service centre but don't tell them about rooting and flashing custom rom...
Bcoz if you tell them then they will cost you money...

Thanks Saurabh1234 for your reply.
How can I use flashtool in my mobile as it is stucking in bootloader? I can access only Recovery mode ( Power + Vol. down). Is there any method to install the firmware by Recovery mode(Power + Vol. down)?
I had already tried the SP flastool to flash my mobile but the software dont access/ read my mobile.

flashtool will work on your pc and laptop...
download firmware and then install drivers given in it in your pc then open your flashtool and load bootloader...
now connect your device to pc via data cable with or without battery ...
then click on download button in flashtool and press vol down on device.
then update will start..

Can you tell me how you ported PhilZ 6.57.9.......coz i'm trying to port PhilZ 6.59.0
Resurrection Remix 5.7.3 for Micromax Canvas L A108
This is the first ever custom rom developed for the Micromax Canvas L a108 phone that was released in the year 2014 and I definitely think that there are many people who are desperate to get a single custom ROM made for this phone as soon as possible because it has Android KitKat as the last update on this phone and the phone is now aging so to keep the support on I have ported this wonderful Resurrection Remix 5.7.3 for this phone
What's working
Everything that I have tested to my knowledge in the 7 days.
People can definitely post the comments regarding the performance and all other issues in the comments but I have just ported it from the excellent guide made by Ajit Guraya
Instruction to flash the custom ROM
1. make sure to make a nandroid backup before you start doing this because there is always a possibility that everything can go wrong,so it is better to have a backup
2.Boot into the custom recovery (CWM, TWRP, CTR, any other recovery )(the link of the TWRP recovery is now provided )
3.Do a complete clean wipe off the data, cache, system
4.Now head towards the location in which you have stored the file preferably in the SD card so that you don't lose that file while wiping off your data.
5.Now go to install the zip file of the ROM and then the Gapps package.
6.Now reboot.
Booting for the first time it will definitely take some time because install the required packages so wait for some minutes the phone will automatically boot and you will be guided through the initial settings
And voila! you have a brand new Android Marshmallow install on your Micromax Canvas A108
N.B-Installing custom rom you may feel that you have a very shortage of memory so please before doing this stuff you can always go to this thread mentioned below to increase your system partition to 5 GB instead of the normal 1.25 GB so that will get enough space for your applications
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/cwm-recovery-micromax-a108-l-t2867010
But remember if you use the CWM recovery mentioned in that forum then it is not compatible with the new Android Marshmallow custom ROM,What I am suggesting you to just use the EBR files to expand the storage only
Here is the download link for the custom ROM.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TE_MVmvIDqhM6o-pLN9-tg6t2m3MLc9S/view?usp=drivesdk
Now the TWRP recovery is completely fine and ready to be flashed
Download link-https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx7uPg_aat14ZFhJOTBKNGtpZklCWm5LQjUwdnc5UzlKbEtF/view?usp=drivesdk
Thank you master Pratik Rawat for your kind help in getting a TWRP recovery right.
Some notes:
1.Regarding the expansion of the storage if anybody wants to expand the storage with the help of the external SD card then I am sorry that it is not possible because it is a bug in the CyanogenMod 13 upon which our ROM is based do this is one of the prime feature of Android Marshmallow but I regret that is not possible due to the problem from the source.
2. If anybody wants to expand the internal storage then that is possible by the help of the EBR files mentioned in the another forums whose link is given in this post but I want to mention that that is not possible to flash by using the TWRP recovery because it is not having the flashable format so the users have to use the SP Flash tool in order to get that..
To flash TWRP recovery in phone I suggest to install the flashify after rooting the phone with the king root in the Android KitKat.
Please use to TWRP recovery mentioned in the forum instead of the CWM recovery that is mentioned in the another forum because only this recovery is compatible with the Android Kit Kat and above.
3. If any user faces the problem of wiped IMEI then you have to go back to the KitKat by using the format all + download option in the SP Flash tool and then use the MTK engineering mode to write the IMEI.
Update: regarding the Restoration of the IMEI master Pratik Rawat has deviced a method to flash the IMEI number for this everybody is required to flash the package using TWRP recovery after the installation of the custom ROM-
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MXz_9T_ESUkSdE3eTuegndzyqjp1yEPS/view?usp=drivesdk
THEN AFTER THE SUCCESSFUL INSTALLATION USERS CAN INSTALL THE CHAMELEON APP AND WRITE THEIR IMEI NUMBER EVEN ON THEIR NEW CUSTOM ROM.
The link to download the application-
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VP3y-xr1JpxQHbDVKvj9O_rpP5mF9RRl/view?usp=drivesdk
I hope for now this much of the information can be useful as of now and further more discussions will be happening as more people will be installing the rom and finding more doubts.
I will be more than happy to help.

You can download the Google application package from the website opengapps.org

Regarding your request to make a video on the process I think I cannot do at the time because I don't have the device right now and for the open gapps you may refer to the smallest package available that is the Pico one for android 6.0.1

If you try to install the custom ROM without having any custom recovery I mean you are trying to install with the stock recovery then you are going to get the same message because it will not allow any installation of foreign software into the mobile
About custom recovery

I am also use flashfy for custom recovery and use recovery which provides by xda

That is the problem that I have mentioned in the main post that I don't have the recovery image with me at the current time because I have lost it and I am not able to do the same thing because my current PC is not taking the parameters correctly.
I need someone to do that for me as it is a very automated process so anyone can do that and see it.
Sorry for this lacunae in the post but at the current time I cannot do anything for the custom recovery for this phone but what I can guarantee you that this custom ROM is perfectly fine for this mobile because I am already use that with my previous custom recovery which I have lost now.
About custom recovery

If not then what is driver (Google it) say by xda
What serch i am on Google

You can search for the easy magic philz touch recovery for mtk
You can follow the guide to make a custom recovery and you may be successful if you are lucky enough with your PC
@SanketMohapatra Where's the kernel source for this ROM (if it's available)?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus using XDA Labs

As a matter of fact I want to tell you that this phone is from the company Micromax which is known for its irregularity in releasing any of the resources for the developers I think it has never released the any kind of kernel sources for any devices just the company releases a phone and forgets about it
So the obvious answer is there is no sources available for this phone and just replaced all the files from the stock to port and the ROM is working
No recovery found
Sir

Don't worry I'll be coming back soon with TWRP recovery for this mobile because I have found out a way in which I can do that again so please be patient
Due to lack of the resources now I am not able to post recovery for mobile but I can give the link website in which there is a very good discussion about what to do and how to port recovery-
https://irisbuddies.blogspot.in/2016/03/how-to-port-philzctrcwmtwrp-recovery-to.html?m=1
But in case if you run into trouble no problem you can always come back to the original version by flashing this file (instruction mentioned in this files)
