Please develop some custom rom for micromax a52 android mobile

hi this phone was rooted on 25th sept(after many months of launch).i request the devs here someone to please develop an custom rom for the mobile or just mod the current one.
How to root?
By this time, many users may get rooted but there is no tutorial for that in androidforums so posting here.
Plus, I have modded original boot.img of A52 myself and added init.d support plus support for initializing ext2,3,4 modules on boot.
DOWNLOADS:
1) Unsecured boot.img (zip contains unsecured boot.img + A52 scatter file)
http://www.mediafire.com/?h9ubm9dhq9n7jjd
2) SP.FlashTool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1353992&d=1348592592
3) Drivers
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1353943&d=1348591411
4) UnlockRoot
http://www.unlockroot.com/
Note: Usemastermind1024 as password to download above files.
Advantages of my boot.img:
I have added init.d support plus ext2.ko,ext3.ko & ext4.ko modules initialization on boot.Just place this ko files in /system/lib/modules/ after rooting the device, u will be able to use Link2SD with ext2,3 or 4 filesystems on your 2nd sdcard partition.
Press thanks if helped
Reference for flashing: MT65x3 flashing tutorial
Read the above tutorial first so u get idea how to flash an img file using SP FlashTool.
STEPS TO FLASH BOOT.IMG:
1) First install the drivers you downloaded & then run SPFlashTool, preferably as administrator (not mandatory)
2) Select USB mode under Options
3) Click Scatter-loading & select scatter file you downloaded from above links.
4) It will automatically load boot.img if it's in the same folder with scatter file otherwise click BOOTIMG & select the downloaded unsecured boot.img
5) Turn off the device fully, remove the battery for 5 seconds to be sure n re-insert the battery but do not power on device.
6) Attach the usb cable with PC but not with device
7) Now click on "Download" button on SPFlashTool, it will show searching for device in lower panel.
8) At this time, attach the cable with device in power off state
9) Now as soon as u attach the cable to device in power off state it will show a progress bar in lower panel n then a dialogue which states successfully flashed n another dialogue showing green colored ring n stating Download OK.
12) Close the dialogues, close the program n reboot the device by pressing power key.
STEPS TO ROOT DEVICE:
1. Power on device.
2. Enable USB Debugging.
- Settings > Application tab > Applications > Development > USB Debugging
3. Install UnlockRoot in pc
4. Attach device using usb cable in debugging mode(u just enabled it in step-2) to pc.
5. Now Run UnlockRoot program and click Root button
6. Confirm online device Micromax A52 in the list which pop-up.
7. Let in finish the procedure and Restart device when is asks.
8. See new Superuser app in app drawer
9. Viola...!!! Your A52 is now rooted.
UnlockRoot does not install Busybox on device so after u rooted the device install busybox to work with many root apps.Search Play Store for Busybox Installer by Jrummy OR BusyBox free by Stericson...
DISCLAIMER:
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, . Please do some research if you have any concerns before flashing! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device
Press thanks if helped

Hi,
Just spent a day figuring out the issue.
1. The software is now checking online and require internet, when you connect to internet it downloads the files from internet and you can not use the KDZ file
2. In order to use the KDZ file you have to find a older version
Check this URL,
http://forum.shiftdelete.net/lg/364123-lg-g2-kzd-yukleme-lg_kdz_fw-update_offlinefix.html
It has a download link to this file [http://dosya.co/xixcjv2lkth6/LG_KDZ_FW-Update_OfflineFix.rar.html]
1. change 'hosts' file in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc and add - 127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com
2. Install some webserver, i am a webdeveloper so I already had APACHE web server installed.
3. By default, apache listens to port 80, change it to 9002 as the update software try connecting to lgmobile.com on this port
4. When done, follow the tutorial on the Turkish forum... here is something which i understood from there
1 - lg_kdz_fw-update_offlinefix \ b2cappsetup Extract these folders somewhere. There are two folders, "LGMOBILEAX FIX", "LG_KDZ_FW-Update_OfflineFix"
2 - c: \ ProgramData \ lgmobileax delete the contents. (If you can not find the folder create an empty folder)
3 - "lgmobileax fix" paste the files in the c: \ ProgramData \ lgmobileax folder
4 - C: \ Windows \ System32 \ drivers \ etc folder, scroll to and open the hosts file with notepad and at the bottom in "127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.co I type" (without quotes)
5 - automatic offline file, run the procedure and confirm the warning GROUPS - i dont know what does that mean, so ignore it :laugh:
6 - There is a VBS file, well you can run from there or manually follow the tutorial to run the windows enabler and other file using win xp mode and stuff, you know what you are doig... right?
7 - Turn your phone settings developer settings and USB debugging mode on, if your phone is in DOWNLOAD MODE then no worries
8 - unmute your phone by pressing and holding the usb cable. will go into download mode.
9 - R & D test tool 3gqct in the program and bring the selected diag.
10 - at the bottom right of the screen windows enabler program has opened. Click it once and turn it over ten written.
11 - kdz select your file and click on the normal web upgrade test.
12 - The Republic of Korea has been selected under the on-screen language is not set in quarters. Click OK to start processing of fear.
13 - the phone will be opened automatically after installation.
(If your phone restarts itself constantly by long-pressing the power button, power off. Then take a hard format. Then did not pick up the phone I have installed has been installed smoothly kdz file)
so i hope this will work for you,,,
if it does.. press thanks
thanks
Thanks dear for looking into the problem. Will try it and update you later

See it really depends . Its a kind of glitch i think. Sometime while flashing IMEI goes to invalid . But it really depends on your luck or how you use your device. Rough used device will get invalid IMEI means if you keep on flashing things. Like it depends , device can also get bricked but thats on your luck... ie. how unlucky you are... not all device are bricked.

How to Install MTK drivers in Windows 8 / 8.1 / 10
what we need:
MTK Vcom Preloader Driver 2.0
Download : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911977169
First thing we need is to Disable the Signed Driver verification on Windows :
To disable driver signature verification, we’re going to need to get into the Troubleshooting options from the boot manager.
The easiest way to bring this screen up is using this secret trick.
Hold down the SHIFT key while you click Restart.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Once your computer has rebooted you will be able to choose the Troubleshoot option.
Then head into Advanced options.
Then Startup Settings.
Since we are modifying boot time configuration settings, you will need to restart your Computer one last time.
After restarting your computer a second time,
choose Disable driver signature enforcement from the list by typing the number 7 on your keyboard.
That’s all there is to it. Your PC will then reboot and you will be able to install unsigned drivers.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
Now its Time to open SP_Driver_v2.0.zip and start the DriverInstall.exe
it will open the install prompt . Press okay and dont change the installation path
Code:
C: // program files / Mediatek / Driver Package
during the installation it will start the verification window security.
Click on Install this driver software anyway
There will be an Error Message . - We Ignore it !
-Now Open your Device Manager and leave it open.
-Power Off your Phone and connect it with your Pc.
-you will see Under ports ( COM & LPT ) a Preloader unknown device

How to Install Custom Roms
You don't need to root your phone to use Custom Roms like
Eragon Rom
or
Nexus Rom
because within installation it will get root with SuperSU
P.s: if you run into a problem e.g Bootloop . (newest Rom dont work well with our Custom Roms , related to its Partition.Img)
You could Flash the Stock ROM 02150725 to solve it
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Place the Rom.Zip into your Internal or External Sdcard
2. If you are on Stock Rom just Flash a Custom Recovery
Best Recovery without any bug is Philz v2 but you can also use Twrp Recovery
3. Hold Vol+ and Power simultaneously
you will get into the Bootloader Menu
4. Navigate with Vol+ to Recovery and apply with Vol-
5. In Recovery perform a Fullwipe , wipe System , Data , Cache , Dalvik
(In Philz Recovery wipe "clean to install a new rom"
In TWRP Recovery Wipe /advanced Wipe /wipe System,Data,Cache,dalvik)
6. Install the Rom.Zip located in your Sdcard
7. Reboot

Windows 10 MTK VCOM USB Drivers for 32 & 64 bit + Driver install tutorial
To determine the version of Windows 10 that you have (32 bit or 64 bit):
- Right-click on Start then click on System
- In the System window that opens, in System section, you will find your version of Windows next to System type
To disable Windows 10 64 bit driver signature enforcement:
- On your 64 bit Windows 10 desktop click on Start then on Settings
- Click on Update & security then in the left pane click on Recovery
- Under Advanced startup click on Restart now button
- Click on Troubleshoot then on Advanced options
- Click on Startup Settings then on Restart button
- The computer will restart with the Startup Settings screen
- To disable the driver signature enforcement until next restart press on number key 7 or F7 on your keyboard.
- After restart you can proceed with the unsigned MTK drivers installation for your 64 bit Windows
- After you install the unsigned drivers, to use them again in the future, you have to repeat this procedure
To install the MTK VCOM USB Drivers on 32 & 64 bit Windows 10:
- Download the drivers *.zip archive and extract the folder from inside on to the desktop:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087012126
Right-click on Start then click on Device Manager
In the Device Manager Window click on the first item – your computer name
Click on Action then Add legacy hardware
On the Welcome to the Add hardware Wizard window click on Next button
Select Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced) and then click on Next button
Click on Show All Devices then on Next button
In the Add Hardware window click on Have Disk… button
In the Install From Disk windows click on Browse… button
In the next window – Locate file – browse for the folder that you have extracted on the desktop at the beginning
Select the version of the driver according to your Windows 10 version – x64 for 64 bit and x86 for 32 bit and click Open button
Click the OK button to load the driver
From the list of drivers select MTK USB Port and click on Next button
If a red warning window will open, click on Install this driver software anyway
This action will add the following drivers in to the operating system:
- MediaTek DA USB VCOM Port
- MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port – for transferring the firmware to your device
- MTK USB DEBUG Port
- MTK USB Modem Port
- MTK USB port – for transfering PreLoader to your device (and recovery in case of bad or corrupt firmware)
Now we need to remove the device that we have installed but leave the drivers in the operating system.
To do that, in the Device Manager window we expand Ports (COM & LPT) section
Right-click and click Uninstall on the MTK USB Port
- In the Confirm Device Uninstall window make sure that the box Delete the driver software for this device is empty
- You need to leave the drivers in the operating system and only remove the device that you added
- Click on the OK button to finalise
Now, when you will connect your turned off MTK device to the Windows 10 computer by USB, the device will be recognized either trough a MediaTek Preloader USB VCOM Port interface or as a MTK USB port if it is bricked or it has bad/corrupt firmware. The SP Flash Tool will be able to transfer the firmware to your device trough this interfaces. Make sure you connect the device after you press the Download button in SP Flash Tool, as the communication interface will only be alive for 2 seconds if no data is being sent.
Download SP Flash Tool v3 & v5 – Latest versions:

Lost IMEI Restore
A common problem many face in their phone is loss of IMEI no. This is results in no network detection by your phone. U can come to know you have lost your IMEI by checking Settings->About phone->Phone information. There under IMEI section you won’t be finding your mobile IMEI numbers displayed.
Don’t worry you can restore your IMEI’s. Just follow this guide and you will be able to restore your IMEI. I will split the tutorial into two parts.
BACKING IMEI :
-First step before performing all these things is that your phone should be rooted.
When your phone is in normal state with everything functioning install Root explorer and navigate to the below location
Code:
>ROOT>DATA>NVRAM>MD>NVRAM>NVD_IMEI>MP0B_001
-Now copy this MP0b_001 file to your SD card or PC whichever place you feel the file we be safer.
-Now download MTK Droid tools .
-Now extract the zip file and open the MTK droid tools exe file.
-Now in your phone turn on USB Debugging by going to Settings->About phone-> Developer options and there turn on USB debugging.
-Now connect your phone and MTK droid tools should be able to detect your phone. U should see a window like this appearing after your
phone has been detected.
-Now press the ROOT button present in lower right corner. When it asks Supersu grant in your mobile click allow. After MTK droid gets
access u should see a green colour box appearing in the lower left corner which means u have correctly granted access to MTK droid.
-Now click on the IMEI/Nvram tab. A window should open and click backup NVRAM and MTK droid tools would take a backup of NVram in
its folder.
RESTORING IMEI :
-Now when you lose IMEI first try this method. Now take the MPDB_001 file which you took backup at the first step and navigate through
Root explorer to this location ->ROOT->DATA->NVRAM->MD->NVRAM->NVD_IMEI.
-Now paste that file and replace the one present there. Set the permissions for that file as RWER-ER-E. Now reboot your phone and you
should be able to get your IMEI back.
If you still haven’t got IMEI open MTK droid tools and connect your phone and press ROOT again and give MTK droid tools root access.
-Now click on IMEI/Nvram tab and select Restore option and restore the NVram backup which you took earlier. Now reboot your phone and
you should be able to get your IMEI.
Extreme method :
-After performing all the above if you haven’t still got IMEI. Now switch off your phone and open SP Tools and connect your phone.
Click on format and format your whole phone. ( This wipes whole of the phone including NVram region ).
-Now flash stock ROM through SP Tools and after it completes start up your phone. ( Don’t be surprised. Your IMEI will still be in lost state
only ). Now root your phone.
-After successful rooting now connect your phone to MTK Droid tools and again press ROOT button and grant root access to MTK Droid
tools. Now click on IMEI/NVram tab.
-Now as you see in the image above you can see two boxes IMEI1 and IMEI 2. Now enter your device IMEI numbers manually in those two
boxes.( You can get your IMEI no’s from your phone box ). Now click replace IMEI. Now reboot your phone and you should be definitely able
to get your IMEI restored.

Thanks for this great work.
And for all the Linux Users out there. SPFlashtool also work perfekt with x86-64 Linux distros.
The most anoying point and greatest drawback is, that with newer Ubuntu based distros like Mint, since 14.04, the builtin modem-manager don't like Mediatek, so you have to blacklist Mediatek in the udev rules.
How this will done, is written in that great tutorial by Miss Montage.

Please note neither the name of the IMEI file nor its position seem to be constant, but may vary from one Stock ROM version to another.
In my case (Stock Rom version 20151203) it took me some time to find a file named "MP0B_001" within the following location:
/nvdata/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI
Maybe the easiest way to find the IMEI file is to search for the keyword "NVD_IMEI" within some root file manager as this does not seem to change.
@skeleton1911 I'm having problems with MTK DROID TOOLS, it won't detect my elephone p8000.
I was wondering can you help me with this?

you want to restore your imei?
do this: it just takes a minute
You can solve your imei problem with this "MTK Engineering Mode" from playstore.
You open the app and go to: MTK Settings, Connectivity, CDS Information, Radio Information, Phone 1.
Here you have at the top "AT+". here you complete to >>AT+EGMR=1,7,"123456789012345"<<, of course with your imei, which ist standing on the akku-cover.
Then, very important: You have to put in a space after "AT+", so it looks like >>AT+ EGMR=1,7,"123456789012345"<<
Click "SEND AT COMMAND". Thats it.
For the second imei do the same with >>AT+ EGMR=1,10,"123456789012345"<<

I believe that first post need a big refresh.
The new All-In-One Mediatek driver don't need to disable driver signing. and contain both USB ADB and USB preloader driver for Mediatek chips
For the Flashtool version (Windows/Linux) there is a specific thread where you can redirect all user to get latest version of Flashtool program.

[GUIDE] IMEI / Connection Repair on Asus Zenfone 2E ZE500CL Z00D

[GUIDE] IMEI / Connection Repair on Asus Zenfone 2E ZE500CL Z00D
I am writing this guide because I recently recovered a bricked ZE500CL and after flashing around so many different files I lost my IMEI and connection abilities. After a little research and some thought I easily repaired my IMEI and restored my connection abilities. Just follow the steps below. I don't have this phone long and I am still learning so some of these steps might not be needed. Nevertheless it DOES work if you follow it properly.
What you will need:
1) Asus Flash Tool - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1n7tJr7lAlPnL8-nmK8f5kGmDHbRv5gxo
2) Asus Phone Drivers - https://drive.google.com/open?id=11XLRW5pEScYdBYwh0vDM-Wup9orGPWDf
3) Debug Service Firmware - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ISofitM3yhYpu46JD0KWGLXybvtLQyAy
4) Intel Phone Tool - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1dQjjlHjWs8tDrfNU_ikgesKK2uKaTyXt
5) Intel Drivers - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1hE9j35VMOD5QGHjDy_aM2vVCs2PVOOm1
6) ADB / Fastboot Tools - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1nbAS8k4JMAXG8YH2qIFHpRjX60TTlYIt
7) IMEI Number - You should have this. If not generate one based off another ZenFone 2E Z00D's IMEI.
8) ZenFone Root Tool - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1NHf516Yex9KfsnufVNz0vkchJWCiMHo2
9) Root File Browser (ES File Explorer, Root Browser etc) - Get from the internet, place on your phone via MTP file transfer or push/install it in adb.
NOTE: If you choose the first way you will have to go into your debugging app in the applications. It will be the one with the magnifying glass and says Asus Log something on it. I no longer have the Service Firmware installed so I can't remember. You will find it though. Once you do go in and find the usb settings and just change modes and you will see the drivers install and device ASUS_Z00D or something similar should appear in device manager under devices. If it fails to load make sure you have the correct ASUS Drivers installed and if that doesn't work the last way is to select the ( ! )Driver and then manually install the USB MTP Device driver which will fix the issue.
10) Factory Folder Backup (This MIGHT not all be needed, still checking to make sure.. for now include it) - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fvH0QdrzLFM34vsm2KNfQBU5fr8eSM14
First Step:
Download everything above and then install 6,2,5,4 (Install the drivers that come with Intel Tool before installing it. You should be prompted during installation) and then install 1.
Second Step:
Open Asus Flash Tool and make sure your phone is connected to the computer and you are in fastboot mode.
You can get there 2 ways. (1) Turn the phone off, hold Vol+, then push the power button, and when you feel it vibrate release the power button while holding Vol+. (2) Open command prompt and enter "adb reboot bootloader" (this is if you're adb is setup system wide, if not navigate to your SDK Tools folder and enter there).
Flash the Debug Service Firmware you downloaded. Check WIPE to wipe before flashing.
Once you see the phone boot up goto the next step.
Third Step:
Open Intel Phone Tool and follow this guide here to fix your IMEI! -
NOTE: You can skip the setprop commands he enters into adb shell in command prompt. This firmware already has the COM Port opened and USB Debugging enabled for you.
Fourth Step:
Now you will need to root your phone using the Root Tool I linked in the beginning (Do not worry about upgrading the SuperSU Binary.) Next you will need to install a root browser on your phone like ES File Browser, Root Browser etc. Something that allows access to root / hidden files. Navigate to /Factory and /Config and backup these two in their entirety to your MicroSD card or computer. Replace your factory with mine if it is empty and doesn't contain the files in the steps below. Now comes time to edit. Makes these changes to the files. (I am not 100% sure which all DO need to be made so I just modified most all of the values.)
These instructions are thanks to @BORETS24
I have changed them a tad as our handset differs from the one he wrote them for. I am still not entirely sure if everything needs to be copied/modified. Don't have a lot of spare time on this handset to figure out everything. I just know from testing this will get your phone functioning again.
Serial number, WI-MAC, BT-MAC repair instructions
(You will be replacing everything after step 5. Below explains what to edit.)
1. If you have an empty factory partition, use the archive, replace factory folder with archive version to root file system via file manager, ES File Explorer or others (root required and root browsing required of the application). Serial Number, WiFi MAC, BTMAC, colorID you may see on box from phone (or make up something for each value). .. you can generate the WiFi MAC based off these Unassigned? Assignments - 00:90:4C, 00:09:4C or just make one up based off a random Assignment from here - https://regauth.standards.ieee.org/standards-ra-web/pub/view.html#registries. For the Bluetooth - 22:22:AF or something you find on the previous site. You can check easier after you generate here - http://www.coffer.com/mac_find/. For color ID I left mine the same as what is in the factory.zip which is Silver.
2. Then open and edit factory/PhoneInfodisk/bt_addr.conf- this BT MAC, replace 00:00:00:00:00:00 numbers to your MAC.
3 Then open and edit factory/PhoneInfodisk/colorID- color code of your phone. For example silver is 6J.
4. Then open and edit factory/PhoneInfodisk/PhoneInfo_inf- 6F0000000 (yours will be 12 numbers) replace to your serial number, 1C002C... change to you BT-MAC, 00B72... change to your WiFi MAC, 6J change to your color code, RU... change to US,EU,CN,TW,RU (do not think this matters much). I changed mine to US I think.
5. Then open and edit factory/PhoneInfodisk/ssn- enter your serial number replacing 0000000. (12 numbers)
6. Then open and edit factory/wifi/mac.txt- enter your WiFi MAC replacing 00000.
Fifth Step:
Open Asus Flash Tools and flash desired build of RAW firmware over the Debug Service Firmware. I suggest the latest WW firmware which is ver .126. From here you can stay on this firmware after replacing the files below or surf around XDA and find out what customized ROMS are available for this phone. Personally I unlocked my Bootloader, flashed TWRP, flashed .126, flashed Resurrection Remix 5.8.4 ? on Nougat 7.1.1 and then flashed a SU. RR I wouldn't recommend as it is buggy and neither would I of MoKee as it is buggy as well. I am fixing the bugs in RR so it runs fine as I particularly like RR over others since it comes pre installed with a horde of features so you can customize your handset to your hearts desire.
1. Install a root File Browser and root your phone again.
2. Replace /config with your backed up /config.
3. Replace /factory with your backed up /factory.
4. Reboot.
Now check everything in settings and make sure it looks right. All should look A-OK except for serial #. I am still working on that and will edit this once I finish. Layout of our phone is different than the one I took files from. You might have to replace the file again if you flash certain custom ROM's. I flashed RR and didn't have to.
EDIT: After a few reboots I seem to lose my MAC's again and the serial (unknown) is replaced by Medfield1534DD97. Both WiFi and BlueTooth still work though. You just have the random default generated MAC's. I can live with that as long as it works. Though if anyone can shed some light on this issue or anything else I would be extremely grateful.
Enjoy Your Phone!
-------------
For the Asus Zenfone 2E ZE500CL Z00D I will be uploading in the near future somewhere an organized package compiled of all recoveries, roms custom + stock firmware, root, bootload unlockers, tools, apps and guides all together so you can easily download and skip the time consuming research I had to endure. It is around 10GB. I am officially done learning this phone now. It has been a long 3 days and now it is time to ship it out to a buyer. =]
