Hi
This thread will index everything for mi 515/7295 from rooting, cwm custom roms and every other thing.
Spice mi 515 / Coolpad 7295 is a Mediatek 6589 chispset quad core(clocked at 1.2 ghz phone) with a gigabyte of ram.
First the most important thing required for android tweaks is rooting. So I will present you the easiest method for rooting which I know(there are various others).
First install the drivers from virtual cd rom in your pc.
Enable USB debugging in your phone from developer options in setting menu.
Run kingo android root tool or vroot(not recommended as it installs chinese superuser).
Just cick on root and your phone will be automatically rooted.
Cool now your spice phone is rooted.
If the process works then ignore next line.
If Kingo android tool doesn't detects your phone then first install vroot to install the missing drivers and you can root again with kingo root tool to install english supersu.

To flash the downloaded zip reboot into cwm recovery mode by switching off your phone and the restarting by pressing volume up and power button simultaneously. When cwm opens clear data and cache and flash zip from the location you placed the zip.
If you want more roms you can visit the following links but use google trasnlate or google chrome as the pages are in chinese.

No its not the same one as you can see the different in sizes of two. I already mentioned in that thread as I ported it from my friends pc (with Windows 7) as it shows error in my pc (with Windows 8.1).

During my holidays I will try to port it using the manual method in ubuntu as Linux can open .img files easily.

First remove quote from the post. Yes you need to do a factory reset whether before or after flashing the rom or you will get into a bootloop.

First thing is
Please dont quote whole post.
it is posted by me only and just few post above on same page.
Ur screenshot is very poor cant see anything please re upload with good resolution.
after pressing that download button u need to connect ur phone in switched off condition.
r u doing this as instructed.??
Please explain the process ur following?
Ur porting cwm means??
Or u mean to say flashing/installing??
which cwm ur using please specify.?
ow! sorry for the way i had posted the thing but thanks for the way you replied- it was quite Quick!!
so, herewith i have attached the zip file (for the better resolution) and jpg file as well (size i could manage within the limitation of this forum) of screenshot where i stuck...View attachment 083.zip
yes, i connected my phone in switched off condition after pressing download button...
i had followed exactly the same way as you have explained for the non-rooted device....
and it was newbie thing that i had written "porting cwm" instead of "installing/flashing cwm"...yes, i was trying to flash/install cwm...
recovery i tried to install is:- [CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch 6.56.2 - cwm 6.0.5.0
Thanks for helping me...
sorry i had just forgotten to mention the scatter file i had used....obviously yes, it is the same as you have uploaded as:-

however, i had to rename it as MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt as the scatter file i had downloaded had have the name as attachment.php
also note that i had put zip file of recovery [CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch 6.56.2 - cwm 6.0.5.0 and that scatter file in same folder as well....
kindly check if i had done any mistake there...
i have attached the scatter file to which i had renamed...
sp flash tool stuck at download mode?
ok may be i have found the mistake while posting just above the procedure i had done!!!
sp flash tool stuck at the download mode may be because i had done mistake (if it is?! ok, i cant confirm it until i can get xolo q3000 back to me or until someone here can confirm that yes, this was the mistake) as below:_
i had downloaded zip file of recovery
then i had downloaded scatter file of xolo q3000 as mentioned in my previous post
i had renamed the scatter file i had downloaded as MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt as the scatter file i had downloaded had have the name as attachment.php (may be silly newbie thing here!!!)
i had put both those files in same folder
and did rest of the procedure as mentioned by avi3230 (OP) here in same thread for non-rooted xolo q3000 just a few posts above...
...and what should i have done?
i should have downloaded only the zip file of desired recovery and then if i extracted it, i could find that there are all the necessary files including recovery.img and scatter_file within the extracted folder!!!
i would like to attach screenshot of wrong thing i had done:- image named as "wrong"
and what i should have done is may be here:- image named as "may be"
i think i was trying to install zip file instead of recovery.img that should be there in extracted folder of recovery.zip along with the scatter_file as well...so, here now i have got where and why i had confused
Put scatter file and recovery image in same folder.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
ok, if zip file of recovery has properly zipped, has properly downloaded and if it has properly extracted then you should find both the recovery.img and scatter_file within extracted folder....if not so, then you should put (get together) the scatter file and recovery image in "same folder" means in extracted folder....
confused? then i can only say sorry for my english but why i had posted the whole thing here? may be because someone can find that what kind of silly things those can be done by newbies....and if so, they can help....

Yeah already seen that no support for philz now.
TWRP is bigger in size and u need to change partition size of recovery.
which is another headache for TWRP.
I already have it but again u need to flash whole stock rom again as whole
preloader boot recovery will change.

is it fully working on both bases - jb and kk? does it allow jb/kk rom switching? what are the drawbacks of flashing whole stock rom again?
what if we make full backup of data (call log/sms/mms/dictionary etc.) and also apps+apps-data using my backup app......
....... - can those be restored in the new setup and be up & running? if so, i don't foresee much troubles. do you?
you being much more experienced, please elaborate. thanks.

As TWRP is larger in size most of the time it wont boot in recovery.
also backing up of recovery wont work on 7mb recovery partition in any cwm based recovery.
So i feel we should stick to philz.

I already have twrp made for device which is easy.
its size is more than 6mb which is the issue.
u can change size of recovery to almost 11mb but then it wont boot in recovery specifically on 6589 chipsets. then whats t use.
to make it boot in recovery we need to change values in preloader.bin which is difficult task.
if anyone working on ubuntu please make an kernel with drivers files from this source.
if using this kernel twrp is less than 6mb then everything will be fine.
THIS PROJECT IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED.

Hi Valkiry,
when I tried to make the update I got an error. Now when I'm doing a normal start the system hangs on the boot logo.
The error message said:
No file_contextsVerifying current system...
assert failed? apply_patch_check("/custpack/JRD_custres(app/ApplicationsProvider-res.apk", "a6aa8e9828f16678621e20a88221dd44e40ba220", "2990a98b2c09688ce0c01ef5ca1be0aff3d88414")
Installation aborted.
Please continue to update your system !
Any ideas?

Sorry for the late reply. My wife just had a baby. You need to remove super user before you apply the update. The update wont work with SU. Its batter to do it with stock 100%
Brilliant. Took a bit of trial and error since I've not worked with this tool before but got my tablet updated to 4.4.2 at last. Thanks so much for putting this together, I really thought I'd be stuck on 4.2. Just gotta figure out how to root now, that doesn't seem to be working.

Does this allow the Tab to make and receive calls over GSM? Is this unbranded firmware not Vodafone firmware?
You need root access to install custom recovery via adb in fastboot, so you mean get root, install recovery then remove SU before flashing?
Okay so the first dump (4.2.2) is stock firmware from Hungary Vodafone used by mtktools to flash, please not this does not have super user so your device is allowed to update to the 4.4.2 file.
Second file is an update to 4.4.2 for those that missed out on the OTA release because they had root.
Third file is a custom debloated 4.4.2 flashable through CWM.
Never install SU on hungary 4.2.2 firmware as you will never get to upgrade to 4.4.2 firmware.
Updated with new files please check post #1
Gapps on RR v5.7.4 is now fully functional. Enjoy please dont Forget to hit that Thanks button!
New RR 5.7.4 Update:
THIS IS A TWRP RESTORE METHOD!
Replace DATA.* and SYSTEM.* files in one of your own backups of RR5.7.4!
Updated SU to 2.79
Busybox Updated
Gapps Installed
DivineBeats V9 installed
Please note there will be alot of missing apps as i needed to make room in system partition for this. There will be no call functionality, or messaging functionality. Also music player app is gone along with YGPS and Adaway. Let me know how you guys go
Where can I find Resurrection Remix in zip file ? Because there is not in your files (only RR 5.7.4 in rar file).
Where is the Scatter File for MT8382?

There is no scatter file for MT8382. Vodafone changed it to lock people out of backing up. The original scatter file provided is the real device code. Why are you asking for MT8382?

Extract the files and re-ZIP it as a zip file. I made a mistake. It won't affect install

Hellow friends..?
Here is a small utility forMTK u guys may like..
https://mega.nz/#!4lAgkQCR!ly1L3qopC_LJyAdzF94aCIBg-AsE22xEma25h0mlZbc
what is this tool...?
-This is a recovery flashable zip.
what it does..?
-It ports the recovery of other mtk device to your mtk device and flashes on the go.
How to use..?
- Extract this zip
- Replace recovery.img by any of your choice(may b of any other devices also)
- Repack it
- And flash it from a working stable recovery.
- Thats all done,If the porting is success,u will b booted into new recovery
what if i lost my recovery in doing this..?
- Dont worry
Old recovery is backed up to internal storage
flash /sdcard/recovery-old.img using flashify
Does this works on any android and any recovery..?
-No,Works with most of the mtk devices and most of the mtk recoveries(currently supports ramdisk in gz compression only)
#NOTE: This is only to taste new recoveries,it may contain issues.If u want to customise or stabilise recovery u can port or compile urself?
