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:

Hope it works .

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:

Hello and thanks for your answer.
The error message that I get is "E: Error executing updater binary in zip....." the next to this message is the path where I have the Zip for the rom in my SD card. I´m totally disoriented and I don´t know how to proceed, I appreciate any more help. Thanks in advance!!!

Ok. Are you checking the md5 after downloading the zip to ensure that it isn't corrupt? Are you wiping properly (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) before attempting the install? Since unbricking the phone have you flashed any firmware at all or is this your first attempt?

Hi again,
md5 checked, full wipe done and after unbrick phone I just flash CM12 nightly.
Also note that I flash BlissPop and Metallized Kernel and everything was ok until I decide to change the bootanmation, rbootanimation and logo. I try to flash the ROM with the zip that I use the first time and also try with a new downloaded zip.
Thanks and regards.

Ok, that information probably would have been useful in your initial post. You're messing with things that can (and obviously do) cause major problems. Flash the stock images with fastboot, see section 8 of my guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2839471
After that you should be able to flash and boot a ROM again, just don't go screwing with the boot logo.

Hello again Heisenberg,
I follow all the steps of section 8 of your guide and I´m on CM OS 5.0.2 and an update of 598,4 MB is downloading right now, the name is Cyanogen OS YNG1TAS17L, can I install it and then flash again my BlissPop?
Really thanks for all your help.
P.S.: Are you watching Better Call Saul? xD
Hello again,
All works like a charm and I´m on BlissPop again.
Really really thanks Heisenberg, cheers.

No such thing as a signed flashable TWRP zip, and that isn't even going to help anyway. Read the FAQ here:

Thankx for your reply, now I understood.
Hi All,
I am new to this xda, firstly i am really very sorry for typing this much question.My problem is,
I am using mi4i(MIUI7). previously I tried to flash custom rom(CM13) to my device,for that i have installed TWRP and alse rooted my device using Mi4i-ToolKit.
Firstly I have taken backup of my current rom (i.e MIUI7), after that selcted CM13 zip and tried to flash that rom,but it is failed to install.
Out to my curiosity, I have searched in xda forms and i got a key that firstly my device has to be downgraded to miui6.6.10 or below version.
then I downgraded my device with 6.5...(miui6 ver) it was downgraded successfully.Then, I tried to flash CM13. But it again failed to
install.and again I restored my entire backup to MIUI7. Now, The problem is my device has been restarting for ever 5 mins since last night.
please provide any inputs to get my back my device to perfect condition.
First of all, flash MIUI 6.6.10 via fastboot and see if the device works. Then after that try to flash CM13 following the instructions provided by the author of the ROM.

Hey guy, I'm trying to port lineage os 14 & 15 to the S8 Pro, do you have experience with twrp, flash etc.? You could help with being my beta tester, next I'll put some betas on android file host, and make a forum here on XDA for the phone
Does anyone have a link to the twrp img file, or any other custom recovery, i cant find it anywhere, all the links just point to the flash tool but it doesn't contain the twrp img file?

That noverity.zip disables a mechanism in the boot partition that verify the boot itself and the system partition, when you install twrp a little bit of the boot partition is altered and so the boot is blocked.
Install the zip using twrp. You can take a look at this (https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-ulefone-s8-pro/), but if I remember well, that s8 pro toolkit app is the one that asks you to install the zip

which firmware version are installed on your phone? Have you tried flashing the official ROM from the ulefone site, then retried the process?
Have tried on both v3. 01 & v3. 03 firmwares. Stock firmware wasn't downloaded directly from ulefone site, imagine it will be the same but will give it a go.
