Hi all!
I'm trying to install CWM in my NGM Legend 2 which is the italian version of Gionee 868 and it should be similar to Micromax A90s
This phone has MT6577 chip (in the infromation of the phone it is called MT6577_S00 is it equal??)
The first time i tried to install it using Mobileuncle Tools but somithing went wrong and now the recovery doesn't work at all!
So i tried to install it using SP Flash Tool but every time i try to flash i see the message in the attached image!
I think is a problem with the drivers because every time I connect the phone in the device manager pops up the MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM but after 2 seconds it goes out and if use USBDeview it shows that the device isn't connected i've tried anything possible and now i don't really know what to do!
I hope someone could help me!
Thanks!
If only your recovey isn't working and your phone still boots normally into Android, you could also just copy your recovery image to your SDCARD and try to use Mobile uncletools again (option upgrade recovery) to reflash the original recovery image.
I did this on my Allview P6 once too (also a mtk 6577 phone)
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

Where did you download the recovery file?
Hello all XDA Members and others who are viewing this thread.
I finally found a way to root the IMPOSSIBLE TO ROOT MediaTek devices!
I personally used it on Xolo HIVE 8x-1000 MT6592M with 2 Gb RAM 1.4 Ghz Octa Core Processor MT6592M.
Devices that won't be rootable by apps like Kingo Root, Vroot(for a certain time), Framaroot, towelroot etc can be rooted and have CWM recovery installed.
Xolo HIVE 8x-1000 users can also follow this guide created by The Android Soul for picture tutorial. : Click Here
Note : If you're rooted but want to install CWM then follow this guide to create CWM and flash it via SP Flash Tool or Just copy the created recovery and flash it via Rashr (Download from play store)
Let's get started without wasting time.
Things you'll need MTK Drivers : All MTK Drivers 2014
Your Phone with USB Debugging Mode turned on in Developer Section
Usb Cable and most Important
A Calm head :silly:
A video is already available link is in 1st point.
Code:
[B][SIZE="3"]Warning Rooting Voids warranty. I would in any means not be responsible for dead devices, bricked SD cards or any other activity that leads to damage of your device. If you know the risks still want to continue then go ahead.[/SIZE][/B]
First we would like to load scatter file for our device. Process in the video link in 1st point.
Disconnect the phone's battery (if any) [ IN CASE OF XOLO HIVE JUST SWITCH OFF THE DEVICE THEN WAIT FOR 30 seconds and connect the device ] and then press volume up button and connect it with PC it will connect device in preloader mode.
1) We would like to have a backup of our UNROOTED stock ROM. Download MTK Droid Tools (Google it) and then use this method to backup your UNROOTED stock ROM. It is basically Read Back method from SP Flash tool Follow this video tutorial : How to backup unrooted stock ROM
Warning : Please do not continue this tutorial if your device has fake information or any kind of restriction or ubifs file system or you'll brick the device. You have been warned.
This is a text guide for the video :
2) After backup extract the firmware you created using MTK Droid Tools. Process given in video.
3)Now when you get boot.img for your device you're good to go
4) Open MTK Droid tools with administrative privileges and make sure your phone is connected and then migrate to root,backup,recovery tab and click the option to choose boot.img from and locate your stock boot image and make a CWM recovery from it.
5) Wait for process to complete and then check recovery folder inside MTK Droid tools folder. There you'll find two files
Code:
[COLOR="Red"][B]XXXX_bootpatched.img & XXXX_recovery.img[/B][/COLOR]
6) Now open SP flash tool and load the MTKXXXX_Android_scatter_txt and untick every option except for boot.img and recovery.img. Then click on both tabs and locate the modified images created by MTK Droid tools which can be found in recovery folder itself if you haven't moved them.
7) Make sure your phone isn't connected at this time and then hit download button in SP Flash Tool and then with phone's battery removed with volume up button pressed connect it to PC and then flash process will begin. After completion you'll see a green circle at that point disconnect your phone and switch it on. Don't disturb the phone until flashing completes and you see a green circle.
Congratulations! You have CWM Recovery for your device without ROOT!
ROOTING
1) Now download this zip file and flash it via CWM Recovery. SuperSU.zip and reboot.
Congo many will get root access now but not Xolo HIVE You do need to flash this zip. Users that don't get root after flashing supersu zip can also continue further.
2) Download Vroot from here and install it.
3) Connect your phone with USB Debugging on and wait till it detects your device.
4) Now click root button and voila you're rooted!
Now reboot and you'll see the superuser app Now you'll have two Superuser apps (NOT XOLO HIVE USERS) SuperSU from flash and Superuser from Vroot. Not to worry just open SuperSU and it will automatically ask to remove the other Superuser app choose that and reboot and you're done
Luckily those who don't want or find complication in SP Tool Read back method, just download the stock ROM for your device and extract boot.img from it and then follow same steps from 4th step at the beginning from where to create CWM for your device.
I suggest use androidxda.com for most stock ROM's.
Xolo HIVE 8x-1000 users don't Panic I have your CWM and Boot image ready Just download from here : Xolo HIVE Recovery.img
Xolo HIVE Boot Patched.img.
KINDLY DON'T MIRROR MY FILES. IF YOU WANT TO SHARE GIVE THIS LINK TO PEOPLE.
Xolo HIVE users I saved your work upto step 5 from step 6 ,i.e, flashing you need to do manually
I know it's a long and complicated process but it is only method working until a new exploit is available to root the impossible mtk devices.
Conisder me a donation if you can as it will help me to make more guides and apps
If you cant donate hit thanks :good:
That won't cost you!
EDIT : I am adding Xolo MT6592 scatter file too in case you can't generate it. Remember to load scatter file uncheck all options leaving boot.img and recovery.img then flash the boot and recovery I provided ONLY XOLO HIVE USERS

bro i want to ask you about the scatter file, because you have not provided that and it is most useful. i have a xolo hive 8x 1000 and when i am trying to generate scatter file then this error comes. and i have read that this can brick the phone. And the person in the video you suggested in step 1 also said in his video not to proceed if any error comes. so please help.
Scatter file can be easily made :?
You just have to click block path tab it won't brick :/
Also I have provided Xolo HIVE recovery and bootpatched file! Just download this and flash it via SP Flash Tool! You can create scatter yourself! Watch the video!
Connect your phone with USB Debugging on and connect to PC and let mtk droid tools read it.When it does then you click on blocks map tab!

Alright bro thanku so much..
And if u have rooted your xolo 8x 1000 then please provide a video link or tutorial. Thnxx
What above I wrote is tutorial only
Switch off the phone open sp flash tools load scatter file and uncheck all boxes excluding boot.img and recovery.img make sure you downloaded the recovery.img and boot.img I attached in the post, just locate my given recovery.img and boot.img and click download button on sp flastool then connect your phone while u keep the volume up button pressed. Now the process will begin and it will give a green circle on successful completion. Switch on the device install vroot on PC I gave link in thread then just connect your phone with USB debugging on and then wait for Vroot to detect the phone then click root and you're done.

Flashing cwm recovery via sp flashtool doesn't makes you rooted. It just replaces stock recovery

Well nothing worked for Xolo Hive if you read my guide too. Flashing SuperSU.zip ends up in a infinite binary update with failure
can you please root xolo 8x-1100
i also don't have pc
I certainly have helped rooting Xolo 8x-1100 and 8x-1200 to a member.
You need PC for flashing boot.img and recovery.img, Sorry my friend: (
Or try rooting via towelroot first then tell me if you succeed.
Also download your stock ROM from here and send me the recovery.img from it follow this link and download : Xolo Play 8x-1100 stock rom
