Before we proceed, let me remind you guys, that you are doing this at your own risk and no one is to be held responsible!!!
This ROOTing procedures and installing of CWM works perfectly on my device, so read and follow all the instructions carefully!!!:fingers-crossed:
We can install CWM without rooting this phone, so feel free to choose where do you want to start...:highfive:
Part 1
Rooting Your Phone
Download files below and do the following procedures.
MT65xx_USB_Driver
RootFiles
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1.Download RootFiles and MT65xx_USB Driver from the links above and extract on your desktop.
2. Enable USB Debbuging Mode and Unknown Sources of your phone.
3. Connect your phone into your computer and wait until successfully recognized.
You may also want to check on your computers Device Manager if the driver is properly installed.
4. Open the RootFiles that you extracted on your desktop, right click on "run.bat" and run as administrator.
5. Follow on screen instructions...
6. Go to your phone and allow to complete rooting process.
7. Your phone will automatically reboot after rooting, check your apps and there should be SU (superuser apps) installed. Done! You have succesfully rooted your phone.
Part 2
Installing Custom Recovery (CWM)
Download files below and again follow the steps...
ScatterFile
RecoveryImageOnly for Starmobile D7!!!
SP FlashTool
Preloader.bin file
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
By the way I use MTKDroid Tools to create the Scatter File and the Recovery Image. Just head on the LINK, if you want to know more about MTKdRoid Tool thanks to rua1:good:
Moving on...
1. Extract all the files you downloaded from the links above on your desktop, and it's better to put them on same folder.
2. Right cllick on SP Flashtool and run as administrator.
3. Click on Scatter-Loading and look for the "ScatterFile".
4. Uncheck everything except for the recovery and look for "recovery.img" and hit enter, F9, or download button.
5. Click yes then turn off your phone, remove and put back the battery.
6. SP FlashTool will start downloading the custom recovery image.
7. Wait until finish downloading...the next screen will appear and hit enter.
Congratulations!!! You have now a Custom Recovery installed. Turn your phone off, and just press VOL UP + POWER BUTTON to enter into your new recovery.
NOW your phone is ready for customization, but before doing that...SECURE A NANDROID BACKUP !!!
I dont have customROM available for this device yet, but thanks to rovo89 for his great Xposed Framework
With this great application, you can now modify your ROM without modifying any APK's or flashing from recovery!!!
Some customization done on my phone is the APM (advance Power Menu)
Volume option to set independently
I also managed to backup the stock ROM of this device, that can be easily download back to your phone by means of SP FlashTool. (assuming you have messed up your phone system and failed to work properly)
Other purpose of the full backup is for the customROM, (wish that some of our good devs here might find time to take a look and help us make a customROM out of it)
I'm not good of creating customROM, but I'm hoping that I could build one...regards to all!!!:fingers-crossed:
This is my first thread so please consider this , just post any comment if i missed anything...thanks!!!

STEP 1 : BACKUP
BEFORE MAKE ANYTHING — IMPORTANT– BACKUP YOUR IMEI NUMBER WITH MTK NVRAM TOOL. YOU CAN ALSO DOWNLOAD IT IN Links other than Needrom:
WHEN INSTALLING THIS ROM YOU LOSE YOUR IMEI NUMBER SO YOU MUST DO THIS: YOU NEED TO HAVE ROOT ON YOUR PHONE AND A RECOVERY INSTALLED LIKE TWRP 2.7
If you come from 4.2.9 Stock Rom you can root it with FRAMAROOT 1.93 –> Then install TWRP 2.7 in mobile unclemtktools with recovery update
PUT MTK NVRAM TOOL.zip into sdcard
ENTER TWRP RECOVERY :
Power off the phone, then do the following:
– Power button + volume button up, to enter the recovery mode.
INSTALL MTK NVRAM TOOL.ZIP FROM SDCARD withouth any wipe. This is a fantastic AROMA TOOL, so you only need to backup your NVRAM, then exit and return to recovery.
ATTENTION: MOBILEUNCLETOOLS DOESN'T RESTORE IMEI IN ANDROID 4.4 SO YOU HAVE TO RESTORE IT ONLY WITH MTK NVRAM TOOL
STEP 2 : INSTALL AOSP ROM
IN TWRP perform a full WIPE –> WIPE–> ADVANCED WIPE–> SELECT
– Dalvik Cache
– Cache
– Data
Return to recovery main interface and Install zip from sdcard:
- Select your ROM FILE.ZIP –> It will launch my installation procedure
- At the end, don't reboot, INSTALL ZIP FROM SD CARD –> MTK NVRAM TOOL.ZIP –> This will launch AROMA –> Restore your NVRAM/IMEI previously saved on your sdcard –> EXIT –> REBOOT SYSTEM
All done, Enjoy your new KitK4tAOSP ROM!! PATIENCE, THE FIRST BOOT IS ABOUT 5 MINUTES.
================================== ATTENTION!!! ==================================
I invite everyone to make a nandroid backup. Only if you have done the backup and you are able to restore the device then you can write me relatively few bugs in the rom or any other problem.
So ATTENTION! … You did not do a Nandroid backup? … You are not able to restore the device? … Well, do not write to me, because I will not answer to you!!
================================== ATTENTION!!! ==================================

It is safe. I have been using it on my Karbonn Titanium S6. I have also create CTR Touch recovery and TWRP Recovery for Karbonn Titanium S6. I will upload them if anybody needs.
The phone can become bricked for many reasons - It can become bricked if you try to flash wrong pre-loader in SP Flash Tools. So when you use SP Flash Tools, select only Recovery and de-select everything else. Also use only Download Only mode in the SP Flash Tools., other modes can overwrite memory and brick your phone.
pleas help me!!!
i dont press volume down to OK mode my phone is huawei y560 u02
please help me. his does not work for my phone. no download mode no recovry!!
