[TUT]
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.

[RECOVERY] Carliv recovery for spice mi 515
Hello I ported carliv recovery for spice mi 515/ coolpad 7295 with the help of @Manu11 using port tool of @yuweng. It's based on cwm 6.0.4.4 but touch is not working in recovery(back button is working) but it's working in aroma file manager so you can use aroma file manager to put zips at the top of sd so you can see and flash them.

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).
But thanks.
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.

Do you know anything about the Coolpad 7298D? Is there another name for it?
I tried vroot and kingo android tool and the one at www.shuame.com/root but I couldn't root the phone with any of them.
Try towel root.

Check if you have enabled usb debugging or not. Btw now try towel root. It's a latest app for rooting the phone without any use of pc. Google for 'Towel Root'. It has successfully rooted all the phones till.
Hi, I have this problem when I try to backup my rom with mtkdroid tool rev. 2.5.3
It backup firmware.info mount.info mt6583android scatter.txt and phone info. After these it stops when backup preloader_and_dsp.
No error only it stops in this line for hours so I leave usb cable and mtkdroid close.
My device is Sanei g706 quad core mt8382
I have root permission root shell permissions and have recovery and busybox installed.
Sanei website is offline so i can't download my rom and I'd wanto to try to change ebr for have big primary partition but without rom backup is dangerous to do it.
Is there someone can solve my problem or have a original rom ready to be flashed with sp flash tools?
Thanks

Plz Help Me...
Asking someone to build a recovery for you is waste of time you better port a recovery for your device for this watch this tutorial on how to port recovery( no PC method) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uBS-uJ8rJUg if you have a PC then watch this https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=g4LAiJ0r1dE
For no PC method you need to flash this zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3725442&d=1461180809 on your phone for this you must be rooted you can flash zip using any of this apps Flashify,Flashfire,Rashr(you can find this apps at play store)or any other liketool.If this doesn't work for you there is another method using apktool google it you'll find.
Note:Before proceeding you have to google what is porting.To port a recovery you need a working recovery of another device which has same CPU that your device is having.There many tutorials out there on XDA and youtube go through those tutorials.Happy porting
I forgot to tell that the zip can be flashed if you have custom recovery.Since you do not have you to extract that zip,copy AIK-mobile folder from zip and place it here /data/local/ after placing AIK-MOBILE folder you have to copy files which are suitable to your processor in "bin" folder of zip and place it here /data/local/AIK-MOBILE/bin/ to do this use any root explorer.
