[Completed] [Q] CWM and Root gone after flashing custom DISCOVERY ROM_Micromax A116_MTK 6589 - XDA Assist

Hi author...I have a micromax A116 which was perfectly fine 4.1.2, but I rooted it with framaroot some days back and it rooted nicely. So I flashed discovery ROM and things turned out wrong. I am also facing similar problems as the phone volume is very low and can barely hear anything. Also, I partitioned my internal memory so that I can increase phone storage. But after 2 days of flashing the custom discovery ROM, I found that my root is gone, now when I am trying to root again via framaroot, it gives me error #9 and so I am helpless. Please help me
I rooted my phone (4.1.2) with framaroot and then got CWM 6.0.3.3. installed. After that i flashed a rom signed by c mahendra based on 4.2.1, but i didnt like the rom, so got back to 4.1.2 stock by restore from SD card. Finally i saw a post on XDA where i found the discovery rom, now i want to keep the discovery rom as it is buttery smooth and most importantly it allows me to save games & apps on my SD card. however dissatisfactions occur as it clicks very crappy pictures, and audio is very low. barely can hear anything on the road. (even with the headset).
Is there any solution where i can get my phone rooted, audio increased and camera fixed (like 4.1.2) but with this discovery rom??
I did not get any upgrading after flashing, instead i was stuck with a problem where it was showing Encryption Unsuccessful and user data not accessible, then when i further restored the backup via SD card, the phone magically booted up after a long long time.
Did i lose my root due to changing the partition of the Internal 4gb MMC?
Please help me sorting out this problem. Stuck and fearful of bricking my device with further experiments.

Hi,
You need to ask this in the A116 dedicated Q and A thread over here:
> Legacy & Low Activity Devices > Micromax A116 > A116 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting > [HELP THREAD]Ask Any Questions! No Question is Noobish [NOOB FRIENDLY]
Alternatively, if could also check out the farmaroot thread for instructions:

Good Luck!

Thank you. Thread closed!

[Completed] [Q] New - Trying To Get Help With A Boost Mobile LG F3

Hello -
I've got a Boost Mobile LG LS720 (F3), and the phone was rooted with Towelroot, as it is a v7 phone. I was assisted at Android Forums originally; yet, I am trying to get assistance - as I want to start using Terminal Emulator, to unlock the phone's read-only memory status in sdext2. The phone works, but, I cannot get CWMT 6.0.4.8 to work correctly - it always triggers a factory reset; though, root remains. I'm able to use my mp3s from my 32 gB micro SD, but, I can't move apps using Link2SD Plus (which is the only way I can access CWMT 6.0.4.8). I'm not new to bringing root to phones, but, this Jelly Bean phone has given me nothing but trouble - I even soft-bricked it once during v6, and sent it to LG's Ft. Worth repair facility to get v7 installed (stock) I have Busybox installed, SuperSU, and to stop the 'Android Is Upgrading' app optimization at boot, I installed CWM Superuser. I have ES File Manager installed, Root Explorer, and Remount installed, as well. I want to learn about using Terminal Emulator, and taking my Android experience to the next level. I am willing to do whatever it takes to become immersed in Android, and one day, start developing apps. I hope that you folks can assist this 52-year-old, disabled Androidphile in taking things to the next level. Thank you for allowing me to post. LOveBusker

[Completed] Goophone N3 Elite

Premis
I purchased a Goophone N3 Elite earlier in the year and found it to be awesome in most respects (spec was good performed well with no lag, GPS/Wifi good) however the System/Data Partitions were very small like 500mb or something and even using App2SD the device eventually got to the point where nothing would update and I couldn't install any new Apps.
Solution
This seemed a waste due to the fact it had 12GB internal storage for media?! So I was finding my phone with 12GB free space yet it no longer allowed me to install apps. I looked around for a while and found a Data Partition app that said it would increase the Data Partition size to 2Gb. So I downloaded FrameRoot and Rooted the phone (which worked correctly), then used the Data Partition App.
Problem
It said to restart then WipeData/Factory Reset which I did but then it was in a bootloop... I have since got the MTK Tools, SP Flash and Shuame tools to attempt to flash the above ROM but it doesn't seem to work. This leads me to believe that the Preloader must have been overwritten or the data partition changes have cased traditional flashing to fail.
Help!
So I was wondering if there is any way someone could guide me through how to reflash the ROM from scratch including checking the Partition tables or any such required stuff from the ground up. It still detects at this point however I cannot see the screen unless using [email protected] once its turned on. It occasionally seems to get booted up from what I can see on there but only the back light is active on the Digitizer.
I have attached screenshots of the places it's detected on my computer:

[Completed] How do I make my external SD card primary storage for my device?

Okay, I'm having some issues with my device being a Samsung Galaxy Avant. I have gained root access and TWRP as well as AOSP ROM flashed... Because who wants stock? So since I'm always looking for ways to make my phone better than the rest and with out spending an outrageous amount I ask how do I get more space on my device. I have a lot of music and new music is always coming in and while using a file manager works, it tedious and unsettling if something goes wrong. So I appreciate any answers or hints.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
To do this, you need to modify your fstab in your boot.img to be able to redirect internal storage to say, a second partition on your SD card. But it's messy (especially if the bootloader is locked), and full of considerations (e.g. puts extra load on a sensitive SD card).
At any rate, please go ahead and create an XDA account, so you can post in the rest of the site. Then, check out the following thread:

[Completed] Cannot find files to flash in CWM or TWRP

Hello, I have just recently received a second lenovo k3 note phone, the first one I was able to root and install a custom recovery and rom using Jin Lins guide on youtube using king root and flashify without any issues:
The second phone I have received has given me a few problems. At first I tried the same simple guide above, but as I opened the file browser software to install flashify and king root, all the file explorers gave me errors that they couldn't find an application to open the apk files etc.
I then decided to install custom recovery and root the phone through the more traditional super SU guide by root junky on youtube.
Everything worked fine, I rebooted into CWM, I went into the install from zip option, here I was supposed to find the super SU zip that I had placed in the internal storage of my phone, but I didn't find it and CWM kept giving me a can't mount SD card error.
I then decided to try TWRP instead by flashing it img file through command line, and again, when I goto the install section, it lists a bunch of folders but I cannot find the rom and super SU zip files I had uploaded to the internal storage which are visible through file explorer. When I try and back up the device, I recieve various can't mount errors of storage and sd card. Also I actually ended up running the application check root and it seems the phone might already have been rooted.
The native software on the Chinese phone is horrible and I would love to use some faster stock rom, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have screen shots but XDA won't let me post them so early.
