unfortunately there are no custom ROMs for your phone
all you can do is to root remove/add your apps and make a nandroid backup
this will be your "custom rom" I understand your frustration
you can try to root it by SuperOneClick
activate USB debugging on phone before better read thread above

thanks i have done rooting but how can i install a custom recovery for it..?
pls tell sir ... rply fast

did you use SuperOneClick or other tool to root?
believe me there is no CWM or custom ROM for your phone
I understand your frustration I was the same situation a few months ago when I buyed an Alcatel phone similar with yours in specs..but no custom ROM there..what to do ..so I made a custom ROM here
but believe me this is not easy at all because ZTE/ Alcatel are not well-known so no tools to prepare custom ROMs for these phones !
I will tell you the most important thing
never flash ROMs not made for your phone because these ROMs have a kernel that can affect/destroy your phone !

that means sir i cant install any recovery so i can went to recovery .... pls tell if there is if only if one recovery for my model is there... ?? pls tell pls tell sir..

but you should have a recovery mode on your phone shutdown phone then press power +vol down and wait even 1 min if nothing on screen touch it or press a button (if this is not working remove battery put it back and start again but with power button+ volume up )
this is recovery mode but not CWM recovery and I think you do not need CWM because this is used to flash custom ROMs so what to do with CWM if you do not have a custom ROM to flash it by CWM ?
I do not want to tell you how to flash a CMW by fastboot because you will make a mistake and flash a CWM that is not made for your phone ...
believe me CWM is not useful you don't have a custom ROM to flash it by CWM and I do not know one !

sir i have tried both the method for going into recovery but in the first method of pressing vol down+ power button makes my phone stick on boot logo but does not go into recovery mode...... and the next method when i press vol up+ power button i start getting vibrated continuesly until battery is taken out so sir pls tell me any method of installing recovery as i want to reflash its stock rom sir pls tell fast sir pls..
Thank You

Sir and pls tell me about the method of "how to flash a CMW by fastboot"
and sir i promise i will not flash a cwm i just want to reinstall its stock rom so sir pls tell or rply me fast pls sir its very urgent..

you have menu/volup/voldown/power buttons check some combinations to enter fastboot when in fastboot mode your screen is blank/black no logo there... only sensors buttons are active!
i.e.
Turn off the phone. Then press Power shortly. Then press and hold Vol down Menu and Power . This should enter fastboot mode. Then connect your phone to computer and follow the rest of instructions.
I can't tell you more because I do not have this phone ...
when entering fastboot mode connect phone to pc and open cmd.exe in adb.exe folder usually \android-sdk\platform-tools\ also do not foreget to copy in this folder your recovery.img
then enter from cmd.exe console this command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
done.. you have recovery installed find a key-combination to enter recovery now you can flash but where is recovery and stock rom ?
maybe you have a sync/update software to check for an update from manufacturer site ?!
maybe you have an installation cd or user guide ? check it!
to open cmd.exe start/run/cmd.exe also to open cmd.exe in adb folder easy way is to use Total Commander and navigate in adb folder then in Commands menu you have an option Open command prompt window
for adb.exe ...you need to install Android SDK
PS do not tell me sir you are a polite man..
a good day to you Sir !
do not make the mistake to flash a rom or recovery not made for your phone !

Ok I will not say you sir but can i say you my friend..?
My Friend Its a very complicated method of installing recovery to my phone I also want if there is any easy method and if i can install cwm through rom manager..

you really want to do something with your phone but unfortunately none is good for your phone do not try !
to have CWM recovery you need sources for your phone to compile them
also a custom ROM can be made only by a person to have this phone because every feature/change needs to be checked on phone without a phone is very hard to do something
when you buy a phone be carefully read about available resources for it !
but I think Froyo is not bad at all !
also check some combinations to enter recovery usually phones come with a default recovery but you have to find how to enter it !
also you should post your question here

For Karbonn A1 to go to recovery mode PRESS POWER BUTTON + HOME BUTTON AFTER THAT U WILL SEE ANDROID LOGO WITH CROSS MARK ON THAT TIME PRESS CALL BUTTON. U WILL ENTER TO RECOVERY MODE.

When I switched off the phone and press ome button + power button my phone hangs on karbonn logo screen does any body having some solutions for this pls reply me fast urgent..

you dont have to select twrp or cwm you just have to:-
1. go to flashify app
2. click on flash header then click on recovery option
3. then there would be three options (choose file ,cwm ,twrp) click on choose a file.
4. then select lewa_recovery_nokia_x.img from your sd card.
5. enjoy the lewa recovery.

solution for bad zip :
fine.. u must hav unlocked bootloader, rooted and custom recovery like cwm 6.0.4.x..
if its ok then verify your downloaded zip
..
this can be done by double clicking it on windows or in your mobile use file explorer..
if the zip contains meta-inf folder, system, boot. img.. then your download was good.. otherwise re download it..
solution for boot stuck :
did u replace oem and boot logo of mmx with spice?
try it and report..
or just flash the oem nd boot logo alone

Current firmware: Android 5.0.2, Build LRX22G, Cyanogen OS version 12.0-YNG1TAS0W0
OTA: http://builds.cyngn.com/cyanogen-os...deeca328/cm-12.0-YNG1TAS0W0-tomato-signed.zip

Use OTA for manually update from any official KitKat build; don't use fastboot flashable images on existing devices with KitKat bootloader - it will brick the device!

Posted cm12
Just installed the zip version of cm12 on yu. Could not wait for the official ota update. Updated zip using cwm recovery which I had installed while the phone was running on the cm11 kitkat 4.4.4 version.
I understand that since this is just a system update there is no need to change or revert back to the original recovery.
(just a doubt- is it necessary to revert back to original 4.4.4 system stock recovery in case we get the OTA or the OTA will take care of any Custom recovery and will install iteslf?)
Initial boot will take a long time due to the Android Runtime (ART) virtual machine which is the improvisation over the Dalvik Cache. So please be patient for all the 122 apps to get registered in by ART. I had tried the ART while on cm11 4.4.4 (despite of system warning that it might lead to crashes etc... ), even then it took a very long time......
Working absolutely fine. Initial experience is awesome. Will be observing it now for some time. Most other features are similar to the cm11. no more 3g detection errors. Got to explore more....
My first posting in XDA.
I owe a lot to this community from which I have taken a lot. I hope I will be able to give back even little that I have got to help others. :good::good:
By zip version i mean the version that can be installed using the phone recovery with out the need of a computer to push the system (i.e. the flashable version). I am not aware what the debuggable version means.

YES YOU CAN JUST FOLLOW THIS STEPS
1. Download official CM12s Ota(1st zip in the link).
2. Place the downloaded zip file in the ‘download’ folder on phone’s internal storage.
3. Boot Yureka into Stock Cyanogen recovery - To do so, power off the phone. Then press Volume Up + Volume Down and Power button simultaneously,Onec you boot into recovery do data/ factory reset.
4. Select ‘Apply Update’ > ‘choose from internal storage’ > /0 > Download > and select “cm-12.0-YNG1TAS0W0-tomato-signed.zip” file. The ROM will be flashed and you should be seeing the Android Bot
5. Once installation is over, go to main page and ‘wipe cache partition’
6. Then select Reboot system now
That’s it! Wait for a while as the device boots for the first time with all new and fresh Cyanogen OS 12.

Use OTA for manually update from any KitKat build; don't use fastboot flashable images on existing devices with KitKat bootloader - it'll brick the device!

It just got updated if you flash it on kitkat bootloader, the device will get bricked
Many users have got their device bricked, the warning was too late I flashed it today at 1:50 AM

Hi, You can very well install the .....signed.zip using the CWM recovery as I did.
1. Install the .....signed.zip file and not the ....flashable.zip or the ....bootable.zip files. Only the .....SIGNED.ZIP file either on your phone memory or sdcard
2. Reboot into the recovery mode either by using the advanced reboot option or by pressing the volumeup+down button and power buttons simultaneously and releasing them once you see the Yu logo and phone vibrates.
2. Use the Factory reset command first and then wipe the Cache
3. Navigate to the Install zip and chose the .....SIGNED.zip from either your phone memory or the SD Card as CWM has the option to chose the zip file. and swipe to install it.
4. After successful installation navigate to reboot and swipe to allow the system to restart.
5. Intial boot takes a very long time saying Android is updating. This is because Lollipop uses Android Runtime (ART) by default and not Dalvik Cache as a virtual machine for all apps. So please be patient till all the 122 or so apks are updated by ART. Takes around 10-15minutes.
6. The usual fist time boot stuff.... and then...
7. Enjoy. CM12 it is sweet.

Is the Android version 5.0.x or 5.1?
Has anyone encountered any bugs at all?
To flash through recovery, do I need the OTA version?
Click to expand...

It is android version 5.0.2
To flash through recovery (either CWM or TWRP) use the .....SIGNED.ZIP i.e. the first file in the list and NOT the .flashable.zip or the last one. Only the first one.
I installed the zip through CWM
The only bug I noticed was when you add the Powersaver option tile in the Notification drawer, when in the power saving mode, a notification showing the power save mode got invoked. When I used the same option after rebooting I am not getting it now..
Also all of a sudden a red boundary started to appear at the edges of the screen. So I though I had opted for the screen refresh notification in the Developer options but I had not. Still i could see the red rectangle when the screen refreshed. I had to reboot the system. Now fine.

KitKat 32bit to LP 64 bit in a snap.

SO... DO we want to flash stock lollipop and then flash custom roms... It is abselutely not needed now.

Wow thanks alot.
Btw will it wipe internal storage?

Does this zip comes with any 64bit recovery or do i need to go to fastboot mode & install 64bit recovery?
Is it compatible with philztouch recovery?

Also, what happens when this zip is flashed?
Before flashing a Rom & if i'm in recovery, will my internal memory be shown in PC when i connect yureka via data cable?(should i copy CM 12.x Rom to internal memory before flashing this zip? )
-Sorry for asking so many qt's all at once... But would appreciate if u can answer all of my queries to get rid of my worries

works like a charm, first boot on blisspop was really smooth, no lag and glitches like stock cm12....got blank screen when i tried to get into recovery(which was obvious) but from second boot, i was stuck on the YU boot logo....It was because of the 32bit recovery...flashed 64-bit CWM through fast boot and again i successfully booted
PS- It doesnt wipe your sdcard

Any 64 bit recovery will work. In my openion I recoment TWRP recovery. It is a touch recovery and has many options like file manager, backup compression etc.
Sorry for the late reply my school reopened so I didn't get any time to read this thread....
Anyway I am going to make an another zip file for flashing recovery within 2 days. Both 64 bit and 32bit....
Both TWRP and CWM.

So.... It does not wipe your SDCARD when following this method. Its safe. Only thing you have to do is flash 64 bit recovery.
Any way data backup is highly recommended. We ate playing with firmware know? Any thing can happen!

Hey @Abhiram Shibu could you tell me what exactly does this flashing do? Does it change our bootloader?

So... This is what it does...

It actually has some of modem files, 64 bit partition details, fastboot(BIOS) for 64bit. You can go ahead and exact the zip file and read the script inside it. It does not have a 64bit recovery so you wold have to flash a recovery of your choice with fastboot. I hope you got your doubts cleared. If you have any further doubts feel free to reply:good:. i am planning to merge recovery flasher into this zip stay tuned!

Make a 64bit to 32 bit file also

Yes of course this is my thread on that http://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/general/cyanogen-12-lollipop-to-cyanogen-11-t3096587 . Very very sorry for the late reply.

any other way to flash recovery?
I dont have a pc right now. After flashing this file and the rom, can i flash the recovery by any other method which does not require pc?

Yes you can. If the ROMs rooted already then you can use the app Flashify to flash the recovery (I guess your phones booting up)
If not you do NEED a pc
