I have one problem with your installation steps. My W90 has no volume buttons, so how to get into recovery mode?
this is a guide on how to root and install cwm on huawei g520 and other chinese mtk 6589 phones
IT HAS ONLY BE TESTED ON HUAWEI G520 but should work on any mtk 6589 (arm v7)
1.root your phone
mgyun vroot
2.download mobile uncle tools from playstore or other market source( availiable on xianzi market)
3.download g520-5000 recovery zip file and place it on your sd card
4.open mobile uncle tools and choose recovery update it will take you to the cwm image stored in your sd card and you can flash your new cwm
5.reboot into recovery from apk menu or by pressing volume up and power button
6.flash gapps and custom roms if you feel like it
enjoy
if you need custom roms for huawei g520 post a request here and i will direct you on where and how to
What about G520 with Snapdragon
I have a Huawei G520-0000. I think my model has a Snapdragon 400, while the G520-5000 has the mk you mention.
I managed to root it, unlock the bootloader and install Rom Manager.
I downloaded a MIUI rom
But there is no information about how to install it.
I found an alleged cwm for my phone called cofface_recovery_g520-0000_MobileX Firmware. The file is a .img, but I don't know how to install it for Rom Manager.
Any advice about how can I install the MIUI in the G520-0000 would be welcomed.
Thx

Handy topic. But i would advice people not to install TWRP or CWM but instead just load it once needed with fastboot.
Because it might still have some problems and once it goes wrong, your device will be bricked.
I am not sure how far the development is for armani regarding TWRP and CWM, I've been using the beta version of CWM without problems howsoever.

So is this Stock ROM is pre-rooted? or just pure stock ROM? because above rooting method is not working for me so I can try this one.

4.4.2 is rooted, 4.2.2 is not
Sent from my C2305 using Tapatalk
I got the fix while mobile is switch off we need to press volume up + power button after download button is pressed in sp tool to start downloading in mobile. Also to root on KitKat we need preloader file of kitkat also. So kindly upload it for other users I am downloading whole KitKat stock ROM.
The recovery does not seem to get flashed on JB stock rom. I tried with mobileuncletools...
it says reboot into recovery mode but simply restarts. may be working on kitkat but i have not tried. actually i did not really like the kitkat update. It takes away backup and restore app. and in exchange you get printing support and news widget which never gets the location. also messes up with Mifileexplorer and apex launcher. i have flashed TWRP and after taking backup of stock rom i can play with the kitkat update maybe...
thanks for the effort.
Thread Updated, now tested multiple times and new ctr recovery link added
please root xolo q1000 opus kitkat
q1000 opus is different from q1000.
q1000 opus has broadcom processor.

Farmaroot will not work after Kit Kat upadate. If you have stock Jelly Bean then use farmaroot method.
If you want rooted kitkat use this method.

Rooting Canvas 4 A210 : (By V.K.A)
A Simple Youtube Video
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installing CWM recovery
THROUGH SP FLASH TOOLS
Install the canvas4 drivers
Download and install SP flash tools to your PC also download and extract the Flashable CWM
Open Flash_tool.exe
Click Scatter-loading
Select MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt (for Canvas 4) found in extracted CWM
Click Download button or press F9
Shutdown your Canvas 4 and connect it with Micro USB to PC running the Flash Tool
See it flashing before your eyes and wait for a green circle to show up on your PC to indicate successful flashing.
Restart phone and Done!
THROUGH MOBILE UNCLE TOOLS(requires root...chk rooting procedure below)
download mobile uncle CWM..extract it and transfer RECOVERY.img to your phone's sd card
download mobile uncle toolkit from playstore and open it
select "update recovery" option and select the recovery.img file in your SD card
restart phone and done!
Rooting Canvas4
USING EXPLOIT:
using an exploit means using an available loophole in the firmware to root...this is done automatically by softwares like MOTOCHOPPER and FRAMAROOT
MOTOCHOPPER
Download MOTOCHOPPER and extract it to a folder in your PC
connect your phone to PC via USB cable
open the folder containing motochopper and start run.bat
a command prompt window will open...just follow onscreen steps
your mobile will reboot in some time....and DONE!!
FRAMAROOT(easiest method to root)
download framaroot app from the xda link given above
install framaroot and start the app
follow onscreen instructions
reboot phone done!NOTE: ROOTING WORKS WITH FRAMAROOT VERSION 1.5 and abv
WITHOUT USING EXPLOIT: this method doesnt use a loophole but forces the root on your device...which means this method is always successful...however you need CWM installed for this method...which can be easily installed using SP flash tools(see above)
FLASHING SUPERSU
install CWM by using the method of SP flash tool
download supersu.zip from above links transfer it to your SD card
boot into recovery using mobile uncle(just select boot into recovery option from the app) OR power off phone...turn it back on while holding both the volume keys along with the power key to boot into recovery
select "install zip from sdcard" "choose zip from sd card"
select supersu.zip and select select yes
reboot phone from the recovery main menu...DONE you are rooted!
Flashing a ROM
Through CWM Recovery
download the rom you want to download from the ROM list given below and transfer the zip file to sdcard
boot into recovery
wipe cache partition
wipe data/factory reset
advanced->clear dalvik cache
mounts and storage->format /system
select "install zip from sdcard"...."choose zip from sdcard" and select the zip file of the rom you just copied
after flashing finishes, reboot phone...the first booth after flashing every rom takes a long time...wait patiently....DONE...enjoy your new ROM!
THROUGH SP FLASH TOOL
same procedure as flashing CWM....just replace CWM with the downloaded SP FLASHABLE ROM
4> Unrooting Canvas4*
open supersu app in your app drawer
goto SETTINGS tab
select full unroot
restart phone and done
*just unrooting your phone wont put it back into warranty...you need to get it to absolute stock factory level to claim any warranty so BEFORE unrooting the phone
just flash the stock rom using SP flash tools from given link
##### Another mention: taking backup of your ROM using CWM
this can be important as if you mess up while using a custom rom or you end up in a soft brick..you can recover using the backup of your ROMi advise that after installing CWM you should first make a backup of your STOCK ROM so that you can have access ti full stock unroot anytime(just restore the stock back up and unroot using supersu...easy isnt it!! no need of dwlding any stock rom)to make backup
boot into CWM recovery
goto backup and restore
create backup->yes
reboot...done!the backup files are stored in internal memory/clockwork folderkeep a copy of this folder in your PC at all times for any emergency that may arise in future(make sure you delete this folder while sending the phone for servicing under warranty)
to restore the backup
boot into recovery
select backup and restore
select restore->date if the recovery
reboot done!

WHAT IS ROOTING???(credits to Amit Taksali sir for this info)
ROOTING : WHAT IS IT?
The act of rooting is similar to yourself giving administrator privileges( as in your windows OS).
You gain access to root directory in system partition. In other words you gain total control on your device.
You may be familiar with Windows OS on your PC, so with windows or linux OS you have got guest user and an administrator. On your android device that you get out of the box the android OS comes only with guest user privileges and all the restrictions of it.
To gain access to administrator privileges and access system folder on your android device you need to root and this act is called ROOTING.
WHY TO ROOT?
If you dont have any other reason to root you should do it for the power of back ups. Tf something goes wrong with your device we normally do a factory-reset and will loose all our data and apps.
Setting-up your device again would be painstakingly boring and repetitive. Today we have various forms of back-ups that help us to restore our device as it was working perfectly before(for ex: an app named TITNIUM BACKUP gives you complete control on your apps).
After rooting flashing a custom recovery will help us a lot to make an nandroid backup of the complete ROM. The major benefit of flashing custom recovery is when flashing custom roms ad other customizations to our current rom. We can make an nandroid backup so that if something goes wrong , all we have to do is restore the nandroid backup and we still have a working device as it was before. We can also remove unwanted bloatware(pre-installed system apps) from our device and free up some space for other usefull apps.
Custom roms and custom recovery are more popular reasons for rooting. The best part of custom roms is that it can breath a new life to your ageing device and also boost the performance. Overclocking your cpu to get max performance can be done by rooting. If your burning through your battery you can undervolt the kernel and underclock the processor, to increase the battery life at the cost of performance.
There are tons of applications that requires root access such as TITANIUM BACKUP, ROOT EXPLORER, WIFI KILL, AD-FREE etc which comes with lots of power.
Now we may wonder why does the manufacturer holds back root access????????????
Most android users are influenced by the software or the user interface(UI) that the manufacturer applies on top of the vanilla android or pure android. Take an example of galaxy s3 and s4.
The manufacturer will provide the latest version of android on their latest device(s4) rather than an older device(s3). They may also hold back an update for older s3. By rooting we can get latest android through custom roms on our older devices(s3) which may attract the customers to buy cheaper s3 than s4. The manufacturers do not want to loose these customers and that is why they hold back root access.
By rooting our device we can also get the latest updates to our device before the manufacturer provides it officially. Sometimes the manufacturer stops updates for older devices as google did for galaxy nexus. But there are many custom roms that have provided the latest kitkat to those devices.
Here we have a huge benefit that the developers of custom roms are not held by any restrictions like the device manufacturers.
For example samsung can never provide you with beats audio or bravia engine to your samsung devices, but we can enjoy the awesome beats audio as well as bravia engine using custom roms.
They will provide you with custom roms that will give these special effects on your device.
WHAT ABOUT WARRANTY AND HARD BRICKS???
Most of the people are hindering to root their device because of damage to warranty. This is not an issue at all as you can completely UNROOT your device back to stock and send ot for warranty without any issues. Personall I have sent my canvas hd without any issues any problems and got it repaired many times .
Speaking about breaking your device, the chances are pretty slim. It mostly happens only when we dont follow correct instructions while flashing roms or playing with the root access. I the chances of bricking device are less than 0.1% once again if you get stuck on bootloop or something like that there are lots of developers on XDA and other forums who will help you to come out of these problems and restore your device to working coditions.
At the end of the day its your money, you have paid for it. When you cant take a PC with only guest user access then why take it with android. Use yor device completely and explore the complete power of android.
HAPPY ROOTING.
CUSTOM ROMScustom roms are modded systems/OS that are made for our device....these can improve our device's performance or looks.....different custom roms have different features...some are faster while some bring another device's UI to our device...advantages of custom rom-renews the cell if you are bored with the old softwares-in case of canvas4...some games dont work on the stock rom...so a custom rom comes in handy if you are a gamerdisadvantages-not all custom roms are perfect...there are certain bugs present in each...

using an exploit means using an available loophole in the firmware to root...this is done automatically by softwares like MOTOCHOPPER and FRAMAROOT
MOTOCHOPPER
Download MOTOCHOPPER and extract it to a folder in your PC
connect your phone to PC via USB cable
open the folder containing motochopper and start run.bat
a command prompt window will open...just follow onscreen steps
your mobile will reboot in some time....and DONE!!
FRAMAROOT(easiest method to root)
download framaroot app from the xda link given above
install framaroot and start the app
follow onscreen instructions
reboot phone done!NOTE: ROOTING WORKS WITH FRAMAROOT VERSION 1.5 and abv
WITHOUT USING EXPLOIT: this method doesnt use a loophole but forces the root on your device...which means this method is always successful...however you need CWM installed for this method...which can be easily installed using SP flash tools(see above)
FLASHING SUPERSU
install CWM by using the method of SP flash tool
download supersu.zip from above links transfer it to your SD card
boot into recovery using mobile uncle(just select boot into recovery option from the app) OR power off phone...turn it back on while holding both the volume keys along with the power key to boot into recovery
select "install zip from sdcard" "choose zip from sd card"
select supersu.zip and select select yes
reboot phone from the recovery main menu...DONE you are rooted!
Flashing a ROM
Through CWM Recovery
download the rom you want to download from the ROM list given below and transfer the zip file to sdcard
boot into recovery
wipe cache partition
wipe data/factory reset
advanced->clear dalvik cache
mounts and storage->format /system
select "install zip from sdcard"...."choose zip from sdcard" and select the zip file of the rom you just copied
after flashing finishes, reboot phone...the first booth after flashing every rom takes a long time...wait patiently....DONE...enjoy your new ROM!
THROUGH SP FLASH TOOL
same procedure as flashing CWM....just replace CWM with the downloaded SP FLASHABLE ROM
4> Unrooting Canvas4*
open supersu app in your app drawer
goto SETTINGS tab
select full unroot
restart phone and done
*just unrooting your phone wont put it back into warranty...you need to get it to absolute stock factory level to claim any warranty so BEFORE unrooting the phone
just flash the stock rom using SP flash tools from given link
##### Another mention: taking backup of your ROM using CWM
this can be important as if you mess up while using a custom rom or you end up in a soft brick..you can recover using the backup of your ROMi advise that after installing CWM you should first make a backup of your STOCK ROM so that you can have access ti full stock unroot anytime(just restore the stock back up and unroot using supersu...easy isnt it!! no need of dwlding any stock rom)to make backup
boot into CWM recovery
goto backup and restore
create backup->yes
reboot...done!the backup files are stored in internal memory/clockwork folderkeep a copy of this folder in your PC at all times for any emergency that may arise in future(make sure you delete this folder while sending the phone for servicing under warranty)
to restore the backup
boot into recovery
select backup and restore
select restore->date if the recovery
reboot done!

Change Your Rom . I would Suggest PureXperia Z2 or Colossus v5. These Rom Don't have the issues you are facing.

You don't have to root and install CWM again as you have done it once. PureXperia Z2 is already rooted. You have to just install the rom from the zip file. Follow the installation instructions in this post . Good Luck
