Ive tried to s-off my Wildfire like 3 times. The first one i failed cz i chose HBOOT 1.01.0001. The second one it was stucked on Acquiring Root <method 1> then i waited, then it said click anything to exit. after that my third times, it doesnt detect my handset.
Does it mean my WF already s-off or what?
Thanks a lot to who has answered my question
You can check the HBOOT version by pressing Vol - and power when turning it on.
i already know its 1.01.0002
But then when i tried to do it again, the alpharevx doesnt detect my phone. it only said : Android
Then it wanted i put the serial
nvm, it detects now. But it stucks when it says Thank you for participating
hye...
i am rlly new with this forum just rcently bcame a mmber... n of cz vry noob...
i hving this problem when i try to run the alpharev X it says waiting for device..
so?? what had i done wrong i already know that my HBOOT is 1.01.002..
btw sory my english..
Did you set your phone at USB-debug and charge only?
how to enable the USB debug?? i hve set myphone to chrge only still alpharex doesnt detect myphone..
USB debugging is under Settings->Applications->Development
does it take a long time for the alpharev X to dtect the phone cz i follow all ur instructions it still shows waiting for device..

No. It detects it almost immediately. Possible solutions:
- Make sure USB Debugging is On, as already said above
- Redownload the AlphaRev X Executable file
- Make sure Drivers are installed and working properly. There are 2 aspects to this:
1) Install HTC Sync, and, Uninstall it. The ADB Drivers will be installed
2) The HBoot Drivers are next. Guide to install that is here:

Its an example. The actual file will be the one you downloaded. (Theres a link in the first line of that guide called Unrevoked Modified USB Driver)
thanks i just install the hboot driver.. install htc sync and uninstall htc sync.. so now i hope alpharev x can detect my phone... again thank u 4 the help..
now rise another problem.. alpharev x can detect myphone but when i enter the beta key base my serial no it says invalid beta key...
im pretty sure i enter the right serial key and the right beta key..

Redownload the alpharev zip and run it, worked for me.
Hmmm which rom to test getting bored of cm7

There are two possible solutions there again. But, before that, make sure you have entered the right details (Right Serial Number (HT0....), Right HBoot Version, Right Device Model).
Once you are sure these are correct:
- Solution 1 - Copy the beta key in your clipboard from the website, then right click the title bar of the AlphaRevX Application, Click Properties, then check mark Quick Edit Mode. Then Right click anywhere inside the window, it will paste the key.
- Solution 2 - Redownload the AlphaRevX Application from the website and retry.
EDIT: Ninja'ed, Oh well.
lol sory mymistake... actually i really put the wrong beta key...
now that i hve S-OFF myphone what should i do now... sorry i really dont know anything..
Two ways again:
1) Follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130044
2) Use Fastboot (Which I used)
- Download Android SDK - http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
- Download ClockworkMod Recovery - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1014498
- Extract the Recovery.img file from the 2nd link, and place it in your SDK Setup Path / Tools (eg: C:/android-sdk-windows/tools)
- Open a Command Window (cmd)
- Browse to the tools folder in this Command Window
- Type the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
- It will install ClockworkMod Recovery, you are done.
Then, simply follow Part 3 of this guide to install Custom ROMs and Stuff, irrespective of what you followed above.

EXE File.
That post simply means, that when you have completed installing your SDK, then, there will be a folder called "Tools" at your install location. Copy Paste the Recovery.img file to the Tools folder.
ok now i hve copy the recovery.img into tools
then open cmd right?? now what??

I hope some clever, kind soul can help me here. I just tried to backup my current rom using rom manager and now my phone can't mount my sd card or read my sim. I think it may have something to do with amonra recovery which I thought I'd failed to install but now appears when I go into recovery. Even when I mount a different sd card the phone can't read it. I think I'm well out of my depth here but am crossing everything hoping for assistance.
Okay I've read and read and read for the last 3 hours and I'm still totally clueless. The phone won't connect to pc either. Any help would be appreciated. Time for 3 hours sleep now
Classic USB Brick. Don't worry, try this: http://android.modaco.com/content/h...com/309939/usb-brick-rickrolled-b0rked-fixed/
Thanks but I'm confused. My hboot is 0.93 and when I follow the next link it seems to suggest I need to downgrade hboot. Is this right or am I being really stupid?
Or is it this I should be following:
2. Enable the SD Card functionality. Boot your phone in FASTBOOT mode (back + power), and enter this command: 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' . This will re-enable your SD card.
If so, I don't understand how to enter any command here. There is no option to enter anything. Once again any replies would be very welcome
You have to install Android SDK in order to issue those commands. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Okay thanks for your patience. I'll do that next. Don't leave me

Try uninstalling SDK and Java, reinstall Java and after that SDK.
will do. As an interesting sidenote my phone won't charge from mains only via usb connection and even that's sporadic
Still the same unfortunately. How frustrating!

Try running it as "administrator".
You can use the ZIP version , unzip it , then dowload the tools using the manager , or download only the tools package
little trick :
If you want to use the installer anyway , hit the "back" button when you get the java error , then next again . The error should vanish. worked for me

It seems to be downloading a whole bunch SDK platforms quite slowly. Does that sound right? Thanks again btw

You just need the tools , not the whole developpement platform.
Just select the SDK tool in the package window

Just because Android is flashed on the phone instead of WinMo doesn't do magic. It will probably perform the same as from SD-card in case of problems. I believe R/W speed is somewhat faster from nand (different type of ROM than SD-card).
Edit. Besides, isn't there still some problems with nand on GSM phones?
Please fill me in here...

Not that i would really be in android/nand/... but i noticed this debate. The problem is that there were just too many false prophets with no results. I would rather recomend a donation to download (like xming) so people can donate for results not for good wishes.

Yeah, for Android development, i think that seems fair,
What do you guys think ?
The purpose of this guide is to walk you through the process of rooting your phone running 2.3.3 ONLY! I will do the best I can to make this as painless as possible and help you achieve your goals of S-Off.
***THIS THREAD IS ONLY FOR OBTAINING S-OFF, OBTAINING ROOT, AND INSTALLING CLOCKWORK MOD RECOVERY! ANY QUESTION REGARDING INSTALLING ROMS DO NOT BELONG HERE AND WILL NOT BE ANSWERED! ONLY ISSUES REGARDING ROOT WILL BE ANSWERED BY MYSELF OR OTHER MEMBERS.***
What you will need: (** = File is attached to OP)
Windows XP or higher (Thats all I have, someone else with MAC and/or Linux will need to assist and I can add it to the OP)
http://revolutionary.io/ .:UPDATE:. PRE4 now available
This site is where you will download the rooting tools and obtain a beta key. When you click on the download button for your OS, make sure you view the box that pops up requesting your OS version, phone model, HBoot version, and phone serial number. Without doing this you cannot root your phone so do it or you are screwed. There are two ways to get your phone serial number: 1) Remove the battery and look at the white sticker or 2) On your phone, go to Settings -> About Phone -> Phone Identity and under Device Serial Number you will see it. After you receive your code COPY AND PASTE it onto a word document or notepad because there are times when you will get confused with the font type from the Revolutionary site. Example, in my beta key, the lower case L looks exactly like the capital I and it threw me off. Also, the key IS case sensitive so keep that in mind.
If running windows, you will need these drivers:
http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe
If running Linux, reports show that you do not need any drivers.
If running Mac OS, I currently do not know so someone please let me know and I will update.
http://goo-inside.me/superuser/su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip **
This file is required to obtain ROOT AFTER you have S-Off.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=630611&stc=1&d=1308537076 (WINDOWS) **
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=630611&stc=1&d=1308537076 (LINUX) **
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/33327355/cwm-4.0.1.4-vivow.img **
These two items are in case Revolutionary tool fails to install CWM on your phone OR if you want to do this offline at another location. Fastboot and abd tool is the software that will take the img file of CWM and flash it onto your phone after S-OFF is obtained.
Prepping your Phone:
Turn off FAST BOOT in the settings located: SETTINGS -> POWER
Turn on Unknown Sources: SETTINGS -> APPLICATIONS
Turn on USB Debugging: SETTINGS -> APPLICATIONTS -> DEVELOPMENT
Installing Root:
1 - First, install the HTC drivers on your computer. It is a very simple step and you should have no issues doing this at all. Also look at your installed programs list and confirm HTC Sync is not installed. This will stop your device from being detected by Revolutionary to other problems when rooting.
2 - Extract the Fastboot and ABD zip file onto the root of your local disk drive (ex. C:\android-win-tools )
3 - Copy/Cut and Paste the CWM img file into the Fastboot and ABD folder (ex. C:\android-win-tools\cwm-4.0.1.4-vivow.img) Doing this will prep your PC to flash CWM in the event the Revolutionary tool does not download and install it.
4 - Place phone in "Disk Drive" mode then Copy/Cut and Paste the root su zip file (do not extract it) onto the root of your SDCard on your phone (ex. x:\su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip )
5 - Place phone in "Charge Only" mode. A lot ot people run into issues and not realize this was not selected.
6 - Run the Revolutionary file now that everything is set to go.
7 - You will get a prompt to enter your beta code. This is the code you received when you downloaded the revolutionary file and entered the information to obtain the beta key.
8 - Sit back and WAIT while the application does what is needed. This process will take anywhere from 3 to 5minutes so be PATIENT.
9 - Upon completion, you will get a prompt to install CWM. Say yes here! Once done skip to step 10.
9a - If the revolutionary app crashes or fails to download/install, leave your phone in the state it is (HBoot mode and should say "Fastboot USB". Open a command prompt in windows (Start - Run - type CMD).
9b - If you did exactly as told, type "CD.." until you see "C:\"
9c - Type the following:
CD android-win-tools
fastboot flash recovery cwm-4.0.1.4-vivow.img
9d - This process takes about 30sec max. Almost done!!!
10 - On your phone, back track to the main menu of HBoot using the volume keys and Power button and select recovery (2nd Option). In a few seconds your will be in CWM.
11 - As long as you copied the signed zip file to the root of your sdcard, perform the following:
"Install Zip From SDCard" (5th Option)
"Choose Zip From SDCard" (2nd Option)
Select the root/su zip file (su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip)
Choose Yes and wait.
Back track to main menu and reboot
12 - Give yourself a pat on the back for paying attention and have a cookie!
I am typing this on my tablet/phone/pc so if an error exists, please let me know right away and I will update the OP. Again, questions here are ONLY for rooting. Anything else...kick yourself in the head, do a real search, and post if needed.

The incredible 2 is definitely an option when obtaining a beta key. Unless you are refering to something else?

My bad, my work computer is crappy, the 2 does not show up on my browser lol
NICE, this thread should be sticky.
On a side note, make sure you have your phone connected to wifi or 3G if you want the revolutionary tool to download and install the CWM automatically. If not then you would have to flash the CWM manually per the instruction from OP.

I went to the site just now and HTC DROID Incredible 2 is the 6th option down in the device list. If it still doesn't show up, test another pc or try it on your phone. All you need is the key anyways.

I will say it is okay as this happens to my PC as well. The files still transfer and CWM flashes through fastboot as well.

Mmk. I downloaded ROM Manager but everytime i start it up it says "You must root your phone for ROM Manager to function. Superuser was not found at "/system/bin/su/" or "system/xbin/su"
I have the file on the root of the sdcard and im pretty sure i rooted it with revolutionary and installed CWM as well.
Ok... Dumb question... where do we find the fastboot and adb zips to install on the C drive??
I have gotten thru step 8 and failed whentrying to install CWM. I manually installed it with step 9 and it said finished. Step 10 says to select recovery but it is not listed. I rebooted to see if that would work but it didnt. Where did I go wrong?
EDIT: Actually it did work just was trying to hard. Thanks for the great instructions.
@ Darkpsycho0
try installing busybox from the market and give it a try again.
@PacerguyDon
The links are in the OP.
It's next to the one that has the img file as well. There is only one zip file and it contains both items in it.
@Flightmed
Power down, and get back into HBoot. You will see the following options:
Fastboot
Recovery
Factory Reset
Simlock
Hboot Usb
Image CRC
The second option (Recovery) is what you want.
EDIT: Glad you got it working!!!

Busybox said "Root not found! The su binary was not found on your phone." -_____-
Thinking about it and looking back...I didn't complete the instructions on applying root. I apologize to you and everyone else.
When you have CWM installed, open it up through recovery. Next, as long as you copied the signed zip file to the root of your sdcard, select "Install Zip From SDCard" (5th Option).
Select "Choose Zip from SDCard" (2nd Option)
Select the zip file (su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip)
Choose Yes and wait. Once done, reboot and you should be good!
Again, I apologize. I will update main post asap!

what PB99IMG did you flash? are you branded?
i used this
PB99IMG_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_r elease_159811_signed.zip
i tried also every other pb99img i could find... but other din't work at all
should i have a goldcard or rooted phone?
i think i am not branded, but i am not shure ://
if you have your phone on contract with e.g.Orange, O2, Vodafone etc then you are branded.
With a branded phone you need a goldcard to flash an unbranded PB99IMG.
To create a goldcard follow this tutorial. Notice however you need to skip the part where they find the CID of the SD-Card using the phone, and use this tool instead, COPY DOWN THE CID WITHOUT ANY SPACES, COMMAS ETC. JUST LETTERS/NUMBERS. Then follow from the tutorial.
Once you have a goldcard try to use the same RUU you used (PB99IMG_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_r elease_159811_signed.zip)
I guess that is why this metod did't wokr ha? :/
i will try to make a goldcard tomorow...
THANKS!!

Hmm maybe, you could also try using a RUU instead?. What network are you on?
EDIT: By the way I just noticed you posted a 2nd thread, there was really no need.
i tried RUU
I tried milions of RUU's befor, but always the same. it shows me that i need more than 30% battery power. and i always had like... atleast 90%
I don't know what network i am on. its my friends phone.
and btw... i'm from slowenia

you mean with the goldcard? yeah I said skip the part where they get the CID (and actually all of the parts where the phone is involved), just use the tool I sent you to get the CID, put your SD in an adapter and follow the tutorial

go to the folder where you installed adb and note the file directory. If you're having problems there's a section on my guide that can help you out
in cmd type
Code:
cd #file directory#
then carry on with the instructions on the tutorial
i found the directory
and yes i go into the folder android sdk and into the map tools...
then i should type adb devices
but it saids that the adb isn't a comand

woops thanked you by accident lol. tried to quote..
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html download this and install this sdk cos i dunno what you did. then make the directory to wherever you install it. Remember to download platform tools from sdk manager.
no... still the same afte installing platform tools
should i install everything??
-android 4.0...
-and so on
perhaps because i have widows 7?
Did you also install USB drivers? Good tutorial for installing sdk can be found in my signature over adb / fastboot guide.

Warning:I am not responisible for any damage to your phone and rooting usually nullifies the warranty. so please procede with your own risk
I tried to root my karbonn A2 for 2 weeks and finally i got it. so im gonna share the steps involved in rooting and also provoide the tools for it.
NOTE: I do not take credit for any tool since all the tools were already available online, so credit goes to whoever programmed them. only thing i did was to alter the method slightly to get my phone rooted.
Lets begin. Before we start rooting our phone, most important thing is the drivers. so u need two types of drivers one is ADB (android debugging bridge) drivers and the other is preloader drivers. i have attached both of these drivers in the attachments u can download it.
Step1[only for beginners]: Go to setting>applications>development>enable USB debugging in the phone, then connect your phone to ur pc (remove all previous drivers if u have installed) then go to device manager>devices, right click on the usb device and click update driver and browse to folder containing the SPdrvers (u need to extract the folder from the attachment first).If driver is successfully installed then u should see "android phone" in ur device manager. to confirm it just run adb devices from the command line by chagning the directory to where adb.exe is, u should see the list of devices attached to ur pc. (usually adb.exe will be in android sdk tools folder or if u dont have one then check in ADB folder from superoneclick in the attachment).
Step2: ok, now that u have installed adb drivers, u need to install preloader driver (also known as downloading mode in some devices). to do this, disconnect ur phone from the pc, then switch off the phone, remove the battery and then connect ur phone to pc again (without the battery). then u should see windows trying to install drivers and fails. then go to device manager again and browse to folder containing USB VCOM drivers (see attachment). after it successfully installs procede to step 3.
Step3:: download, extract the files MTKROM and SPflash tool to ur pc. then put the battery inside ur phone then switch it on, connect it to pc (enable debugging all the time). then open command line then go to adb folder then type :adb devices- u should see the list of device attached (u will get some long numbers so dont worry). then type "adb shell" (without the quotes). u will get a $ sign, then type "cat proc/mtd > /sdcard/firmware.info" if its successful then a file named firmware.info will be created in ur sdcard root. then copy that file to ur pc.
Step 4: Now open that firmware.info in MTKROM.exe u should see a list tables and address like in the image below. then click save scatter and rename the filename to MT6575 instead of MT6573 (and leave everthing else as it is). so a file named "MT6575_Android_scatter.txt" will be created.
Step 5: Now open Spflash tool and load the scatter file in that. u should see something like this in the image below.
STEPS TO BACKUP ORIGINAL BOOT AND RECOVERY
Step 6: Before we actually begin to root its important to make a backup of current images. so to do that, go to READ BACK tab in sp flash tool. click on Add>double click on the page file and save as "Boot.img" somewhere safe. then click on "Read Page only", this is very important. then look at the address side by side from MTKROM and enter into sptool. the start address is the address in which the boot.img begins and length is the length of boot.img. so final address will be startaddress+length =start address of next image (recovery.img). In MTKROM the start address is given as "PART ADDRESS". after entering those carefully click ok. if u want to be sure then use programmer calculator and add the address.
Note :the address will be in hexadecimal format not decimal.
Step7: In order to read the firmware from the phone, disconnect the phone from your pc, remove the battery, dont connect it yet. now click on "Read back" button in the sptool (its after Add,remove button). now the software starts searching for the device. now connect the device to the pc (without battery ofcourse). now if have installed USB VCOM drivers correctly then the sp tool should detect ur device and start reading from it. u will see Red colour in the
task bar when it detects then blue colour while the tool is reading the phone. wait untill the reading is complete. A green circle will pop up after it successfully reads from the device. (refer the images below)
Step 8: repeat step seven as described above for recovery.img (save the file as recovery.img) then select "read page only" option, enter start address as 0x0980000 and length as 0x0500000. (please enter the address carefully cross check with MTKROM image addresses.)
Note: You have to disconnect the device first then click read back button after entering the addresses then connect the device, otherwise the sptool wont detect your device!.
Actual Rooting Procedure
Step 9: Now that you have backed up both boot and recovery images its time to start the actual rooting. download the boot.img file from the attachment and save to your pc (dont replace it with your backup image that you saved earlier). go to download tab in the sp tool and tick only boot.img and uncheck all others (if any of them has been checked already) and click on Bootimg and browse for the folder where u downloaded boot.img from the attachment and NOT THE BACKUP! after that disconnect your device, then click download button above( after format->upgrade button) or f9 from keyboard. the tool will start searching the usb com ports. now connect your device and wait till it downloads fully. Note: In downloading your will get RED colour first, then YELLOW colour while flashing, and finally a GREEN circle after flashing is complete).
Step 10: The most important and complicates steps are over. now all you have to do is put your battery to your phone and switch it on. now after it sucessfully boots up, open superonclick.exe (you will get this software online and its very popular tool for rooting) and connect the device to your pc (enable debugging of course), then click Root button in superoneclick and Voila! your phone is rooted. enjoy and dont forget to press thanks button if ive helped
Note: u will need .NET framework 3.5 to run superoneclick.
Method To Unroot
For unrooting your mobile all you have to do is flash the original, backup boot image back to your phone. just open sptool and load the scatter file, then click on bootimg then browse to wherever u have stored backup boot.img then click download button then connect your device without the battery and thats it. you will get back original firmware without the root!.
Clockwork mod recovery for A2
There is no official cwm recovery for A2, but i ported cwm for other MT65xx devices to A2. so here are the steps to flash.
step 1: download recovery.img from the attachment.
step 2: open sp flash tool and load scatter.txt (for detailed description refer rooting steps). then tick recoveryimg and browse and set the path of the recovery.img you just downloaded from attachment.
step3: click on download button at the top or press f9. then take out the battery from the phone and connect it to the pc. the tool will detect your phone and start flashing cwm recovery.wait untill the green circle pops up.
step 4: now put in the battery and press power button+volume up and hold it for few seconds and voila!! cwm recovery boots up. And to revert back to original recovery just flash the recovery.img that you backed up during rooting process using the above steps.
Note: Do Not factory reset your phone without backing up the IMEI number. After rooting your device please backup your phones IMEI number which is stored in data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/MP0B_001 to a safe place. or there is an application called mobileuncletools (a chinese app) which helps to backup your IMEI to sdcard and restore it back. if u loose your IMEI and reset your phone then you cannot call or recieve sms etc
No service and invalid IMEI solution
explanation:
In case u did factory reset of the phone, then all your data will be wiped including the imei number. it will be reverted to factory imei number, hence you cannot connect to any mobile networks in india or anywhere else because most network operators wont allow to use the network with dupicate or invalid imei numbers. every device has a specific imei number. in this device your original imei numbers (15 digits) will be on the back of your battery.
Restoring is tough very simple procedure, creating the required files is a major headache. At first i thought it was impossible to restore the imei back (trust me i tried all the available solutions that u get in the internet, infact there are 5 different types of solutions, none of which worked for this device). luckily one day i found a chinese software which actually did create a imei file that is compatible with this device (phew !, yeah i know) and so i did successully restored my imei back and i can once again connect to mobile network and make calls..:victory: so here it goes.
How to restore IMEI number? (MUST BE A ROOTED PHONE)
1) if u have made the backup of MP0B_001 file in /data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/MP0B_001 , then install root explorer and simply replace your current file with the backed up MP0B_001 and set the permissions to rw-rw---- and restart.
2) if u havent backed it up (too bad), then download the chinese software sn_gen.zip from the attachments and enter both imei numbers that is found in the back of your battery (enter the numbers correctly and cross check it again, its 15 digit number). then the software generates a new MP0B_001 file, copy and paste in the above mentioned directory and set the permissions to rw-rw---- and restart.:fingers-crossed:
dont forget to press thanks button if ive helped you :good:

its not possible to put ICS in A2 (since its officially not supported to our device), although cyanogenmod 9 can be installed but its very difficult to build it since most of the drivers are properitery and they wont release the sources. so its almost impossible to run cm9 and even if someone did build cm9 it wont run smoothly because of very low amount ram in our device (<256MB and ICS needs more than that to work smoothly). however im working to build cm7 (based on gingerbread) for our device and even that is really difficult since there is no device tree in github for this device. so i need build cm7 from scratch and that is not an easy job. so if any developers are working on building cm7 for A2 please pm me so that we can work together..

lol i was a galaxy ace user untill last dec. (its touch digitizer got broke, so i temporarily bought karbonn). anyway i do know ace can run cm10 and pretty much any device can, even ours can run it. i did not say our device doesnt run at all. i said it wont run smoothly and developing cm other than stock os version is very very difficult since our device is a local device and threre is no lot of support for it. so if anything goes wrong we may permanently brick our devices and may not find solution at all.
on the other hand, since i was a former ace user, i know that even though ace can run cm9 and cm10 there were a lot of problem in getting camera, video recording, and other applications because of unavialablity of their sources. so furthermore most of extra features that arent available in gingerbread cannot be used ex: face recognition, google now,otg usb etc( they are built for high end devices). u wont notice the difference in optimizations and performance of jelly bean in low end devices because they need sufficient hardware to utilize the os to full extent. so only thing u get out of installing cm is user interface (which u can change using of launchers, oh yes there are big bunches of launchers out there) and some features of cm (deodexd rom,custom kernel with overclocking features and some tweaks.)
coming back to our device, ive been trying to build cm7 for our device and its really difficult without a device tree and some good prior experience in building cm for atleast 2 devices. so my advice is that first we will build a fully working cm7 for our device and later if possible we will port cm10.

what do u mean by reset? did u do factory reset from recovery or did u clear flash from by holding power+down? (oh btw recovery is power+up in our device).
either way ur imei number has been erased and it will be reset to factory number . i spent 1 week day and night searching for a solution and that is exactly why i told u to backup your MB0P_001 file.
in order to repair it u need to root ur phone. follow above steps and paste ur imei number (dial *#06#).

ru sure u replaced boot.img which was attached in attachments to your phone? if it was successful then u have unlocked the bootloader. the problem here seems to be like superonclick isnt detecting ur phone when connected to pc. In case if the usb debugging is turned off enable it and check if ur device is listed in adb devices command as explained above. if it does and still rooting doesnt work, then maybe you are using wrong version of superoneclick. because some of the loopholes which is used to root your phone (by gaining temporary access to shell) is not available in older versions. the version must be compatible with gingerbread. try downloading superonclick 2.3.3 version.
also, after u root with superonclick, restart it and please check if u have superuser app in ur phone(it will be automatically installed by superoneclick, dont install it manually since the app should be in /system/app and su command should be in /system/bin directory, which u cannot do by installing it manually). if its installed then u have root access, if u still want to confirm just download root checker app from google play and run it.
CM10 means Jelly Bean Which has minimum Requirement of 512MB ram... device cant even Support Cm9(ics)...And generally cynogenmods are not developed for local Indian Brands.....Instead Try this making your phone look like XPERIA:

First 3 steps problem
I already downloaded everything and it seems like even before I started I already encountered a problem. When I try step 2 my KArbonn A2 device cannot be found on the list of devices on the cmd.... No "Android Phone" is found on my device manager but only "Karbonn - A2MS USB Device". When I update the driver it says that it is already the best driver for my device.... I need help pls.....:crying:
