[Completed] Phone dead after bootloop - XDA Assist

I have Micromax A120, last week it suffered Bootloop I take it to customer service where they factory reset it and try to update the software. However, they told me software update fails around 50-60 percent and it required to install new motherboard with the cost as much as of the phone with one month warranty. I don't like the idea of changing motherboard and I think customer care guys try to solve it wrong way that create such problem. Please tell me why this happen and is there any way now I could repair my phone.
My phone specifications are :
Android 4.4Kitkat
1 GB RAM
Chipset Mediatek MT6582
CPU Quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7
GPU Mali-400MP2

i am having this phone and i've used every trick and tweak to unlock phone if cloakworkmod provide new recovery mode then only it can be done adb procedure is not so useful for it..
Things to Do
Thanks for your reply
So what are the things we have to do -
First, we have to root the phone then only we can use custom roms , mods , overclock etc..
To Root the Device we can follow the following procedures -
1)By Adb Procedure [Risky]
2)Using SP Flash Tool -
We need drivers , scatter file ,orginal boot.img
we also can find a clone of the device, from which we can use the boot.img
3)By editing the boot.img and injecting it
If anyone has any progress, do inform me
"clement0324" what are the tricks have you already tried ?????? and can you tell me what is the internal memory of your phone (not 512 rom)
also please elaborate what do you mean by "if cloakworkmod provide new recovery mode then only it can be done adb procedure is not so useful for it"
Extra Info -

thanx...
Thanks for the Details
clement0324 thanks for the details
As you are new to android , i will not want you to experiment with your phone .... as you might brick it. I soon as I get my own A56 I will create a dump and upload it.
We can't root the device or use update.zip because before that we have to edit the boot.img some how ......
If you dare to create a dump of your ROM then you can try this method - [ It is very unlikely that it will cause any harm to your device, as it just copies the file from your Rom to your micro sd]

We require more Devs and also require the details of the manufacturer of the device.
If some how i can get the boot.img the i might be able to edit it so that we can use unlockroot, superoneclick etc to root it.
The problem is i don't have the device so that i can test it
We can try this
We can try the same procedure we use to root the Ninja A50
But we need a valid scatter file and a (unsecured) boot.img
this phone is based on qualcomm msm7225a and the mtk6573's or mmx a50's rooting procedure will not work on this phone .. It dosent got a scatter file like mtk6573 .
Reply!!!!
manufacturer is is some address named "Building 1, no.28 (west),hechang six road,zhongkai hightech zone,huizhou"
and imported and manufactured by micromax infomatics ltd. 24/14A, Phase 2..
is this helpful please tell me...
got a hint
my adb can't recognise device model no it's showing blank in cmd while listing devices so do you have any idea?
a little advice needed from owners.
Hello friends,
I am looking forward to buy Micromax A56 phone (have a tight budget of 6000)but have some doubts please reply.
#Currently i have a60 model (zte penguin)quite good due to custom rom and tweaks but have to upgrade now.
1.does Micromax A56 have a gpu and what is the chipset?
2.what is the available internal memory at time of buying it.some people say 50mb which is horrible.
3.does it affect performance due to 50 mb internal memory and 256 mb ram?
4.are the 3 android buttons backlight and have good responsiveness.
5.can i get an extra battery as i am a frequent traveller.
6.list good games that can be played on it .(you can ignore this question)
7.how is the dual sim functionality and does it has notification led?
Please reply so that i can buy Micromax A56 and help you in its development.
Idea
Can we try any use other device boot.img of the same qualcomm msm7225a chipset ??????
Here is a list of devices -
http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=cpu&id=a7225a&c=qualcomm_msm7225a

Best of Luck !!!!! We will succeed

[Completed] MTK Device Hard Bricked: Cherry Mobile Flare XL

Hi Everyone,
I'm not sure where's the specific thread for this one. I would like to ask a help from someone here to fix my Cherry Mobile Flare XL.
What happened: I had the OTA Update from Cherry Mobile and after updating, it then boot loop.
What did I do to fix boot loop: I tried to flash the ROM(which I got from the FB group named after the phone). Unfortunately and unknowingly, I formatted the phone together with it's bootloader.
What's happening? When I'm trying to flash the Stock ROM. It gives me error 4032 in SPFlashtool. The phone isn't turning on anymore, too. Though, I'm hearing a sound everytime I connect the phone in my Windows 7 thru USB Cable(I believe it can still be detected,right?)
What did I do so far? Tried to flash the ROM using the different versions of SPFlash Tool. Used different machines and used a reliable USB cable, too.
Here's my phone' specs:
Brand: Cherry Mobile(local brand here in Philippines)
Model: Flare XL
Chipset: MediaTek MT6592M Chipset
Can please someone redirect me to the correct thread or help me with this one? It's causing me to stress a lot for weeks now as it is almost brand new
(Fvck you Cherry Mobile for giving us unstable updates. )
You can contact me as well at: [email protected]
Hoping that someone will notice this.
Thank you so much!

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
I'm sorry to hear about your trouble. There is no forum specifically for the Cherry Mobile Flare XL but you may want to ask your question with all relevant details in the friendly general Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help. That's a good place to start where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you.

[Completed] What can possibly go wrong if i flash a recovery of another phone but same hardware?

I actually didn't get any driver ( I did try the universal ADB driver, but it didn't work ) or any custom recovery for my lava iris alfa l, so after doing a lot of research and tries, i gave up and thought of flashing a recovery of a different phone but of the same brand (lava) and same hardware (MT 6582) so my concern was if something goes wrong maybe I wouldn't even be able to access the stock recovery and it would be impossible to fix my bricked phone. If any dev can say wheather it is safe or not it would be a real help or anybody who has tried it please suggest me what should I do.
My android's specs (i used cpu z)
Its a lava iris alfa l
Media tek Mt6582 1.30 GHz
Cores 4
Architecture 4x ARM Cortex-A7 @ 1.30 GHz
Kernel architecture armv7I
My kind request for help and a reply ASAP
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA assist.
I couldn't find any useful information about your device running a custom recovery on XDA. It is highly likely that if you flash a recovery from a different device, something will go wrong.

[Completed] any custom rom for videocon cube 3 (Mediatek mt6735v Chipset ,mali t720 cpu).

Sir i have bought videocon cube 3 (V50JL). it works on Android Marshamallow platform. It is having Mediatek mt735v Chipset with mali t720 cpu. #gb Ram And 32GB Rom with 25GB user memory. I have tried to root it with many mobile and pc apps but unsuccesfull doing that. Tried to install twrp with adb but after oem unlocking the phone stuck to bootloader.
The problem with the software is , it doesn't support different ringtone for different sim, even the for the same doesn't work.
For offscreen gestures they put the only option to activate all the four or deactivate all of them. No option to on which one i want.
No otg support.
Please guide me to some good Custom ROM for it to short all this issues.
I have gave the phone to service center and asked them that i want it rooted, but i don't think they will do it.
so please guide me to rooting process for the same.
Hi there and welcome to assist,
