Backup: dd if=/dev/block/recovery of=/sdcard/recoverystock.img
Also adb shell ls -al /dev/block/by-name
to get complete list of partition..

I have a zipped file here contains Rashr app (for flashing) a readme.txt (for instructions) and a Recovery.img(A33 twrp) .
I dont know how to use it because the instruction said that i must use a multiple adapter for MOUSE AND USB.. I'm not sure if it is WORKING WITH ALL ALLWINNER TABLETS cuz i don't had any idea about allwinner chipset, so i didn't try it because im afraid of bricking my tablet ...
Please tell me if it is safe..

Yes, you are right it will not brick it because allwinner is hardly get bricked, worst case in that case you will loose your recovery partition, or stuck recovery which you cant do anything, usb adapter of mouse is like if somehow touchscreen of that recovery doesnt match with your model so there is universal support for mouse too make it work. Before using that flash app you must have root access too make it work, mostly allwinners are easy too root, search root genious windows app, it will root the tab easily i almost use that for allwinners variant.. BTW what are you up too? Why you need custom recovery?

Still no cynogenmod
There is currently no cm for your device as in my knowledge.
But don't worry there will be one soon as your device is very good with snaptagron 200 and Adreno 203.
Try posting on cynogenmod.org
Hope they might take interest on your device.

1) Framaroot 1.6.1 should work here. This is the only tool that I can think of when it comes to root the p11
2) I have no clue on how to do this. :/ But After you root it, you can install SuperSU and then there's an option in it "Complete Clean up for unroot". That should work
3) Making recovery is tough. You will need to download the source code and then manually create a recovery after that.

Can you help make CWM 10.2 or 11? for Panasonic P11? If yes, please suggest next steps. I've taken backup in Romdump. Should I upload it on google drive and share the link?
Also, given below are link to CMW and TWRP recovery for Karbonn S5. Panasonic P11 has exactly the same hardware specs as Karbonn S5, except that P11 has 720X1280 resolution, whereas Karbonn S5 has a qHD resolution. Can you edit the img to just change the resolution? That should make it easier for you as well

http://www.mediafire.com/download/6u3x0huuuyudjj7/TWRP_Play_S5.zip
Then, if I someone can help me to extract boot.img from P11 and replace it in Karbonn S5 Custom Roms, all S5 Custom Roms will work on P11

I'm afraid it doesn't work that way. Changing the resolution won't help. There are many things that might be different. For instance, recovery.fstab might be different. It contains the details of the partitions where /system, /data, /sdcard are mounted. And they have to be different. So given that I don't know how to change the resolution, I'm sorry I can't help you.

What do you mean by "tell me what do you need"? I'm not building the ROM for you!
There are many things you will have to change in the ROM:
1) The build.prop must be edited completely.
2) I think that the kernel will fail :/ It's just like using HTC wildfire's kernel in Samsung Galaxy Y.
3) Some apps in the /system might be vendor specific so they might break
A dozen of other things that are different but I just cannot wrap my mind around it as of now :/ The things mentioned above are very basicish kind of stuff. See, I'm clearly not in a proper state I'll post back when I'm lucid

The recovery is able to flash zip packages. I flashed a font and it worked perfectly!! The big question is if we will be able to flash a ported rom, lets say from G Flex for example.

By the way don't delete files you don't know.. learn a lesson. what did you think that the bin folder is some sort of recycle bin.... let me tell you.. in system you will find bin / sbin and xbin.... yes 3 of it and each containing micro codes about how your system works....also not to fondle if you are newbie...... the thing you have done I've experienced it many times..... so don't worry. If you want to free memory, use any app like cleanmaster or anything... not to alter the system secure partition........and from your troubles I guess you have ROOTED your Android device.

Is this method perhaps worth trying?
http://kidapso.com/how-to-install-custom-rom-on-sony-xperia-e5/
Well, I've not tried that yet but thought I'd begin with unlocking the bootloader. Apparently, an E4 code will work for E5. I now have software SDK issues (computer incompatibility) so will probably have to seek assistance with a machine at this end for proceeding (and I'm a noob with all of this anyway).
