How to root Micromax A25.

After lots and lots of research, I have now confirmed that the only way to root Micromax A25 is through the following steps:
1. Obtain its scatter.txt file and boot.img.
2. Make the boot.img insecure.
3. Use the scatter.txt in SP Flash Tool to flash the modified insecure boot.img file to the phone.
4. Then root with UnlockRoot.
So dear modders and fellow Micromax lovers, please help me and let's get this phone rooted. The phone already communicates with my PC. I think the drivers are auto-installed when I connect the phone to the PC. And Motofail was able to reboot it. One of the many rooting methods that I tried managed to install a battery saver apk on my phone but not the superuser apk and the su binary. Therefore I am sure that the usb drivers have been installed.
Now the real question is--- How to obtain the scatter.txt and boot.img file? Will the scatter.txt file for the Micromax A52 work with A25? They have very similar specs and both have MT6575. Somebody please help. I seem to be the only person trying to root this phone.

I also want to root My Micromax Smarty A25

Bro I have also purchased Micromax Smarty A25 1 week ago and I also want to root it. Unfortunately I am not also able to find any post on how to root it. I have heard ablou Unlockroot to root. Can't we directly connect our mobile and click on root. will it root. if not why.... I have found its USB drivers which detects my Smarty as Micromax A25. So can't we put it in debug mode and lick on root icon (in Unlockroot) to root our phone. Please help me.. and if you get succeed in rooting your phone please tell me how you do it. You will be my life saver.............. :angel::angel::angel::angel::angel::angel::angel::angel::angel::angel:

We are together in this. I believe that I am very close to rooting this phone. We can't use UnlockRoot directly because it cannot access the root shell. I had successfully rooted Micromax A50 before with UnlockRoot. However, the process is not as simple as just connecting the phone to the PC an clicking on the root button in UnlockRoot. We need to obtain the rom dump or at least the boot image and make it insecure and then flash it back to the phone. Only then can we use Unlockroot successfully. I have done all that I can and obtained the scatter loading file. Now I am working on dumping/obtaining the rom dump. Do some research and please share here. I will too. If we obtain the boot image for Micromax A25, the rest is a piece of cake. And one more thing. Please upload the drivers for the phone here for other users and I would also like to check it out. Or post the link to the drivers here. Thanks.

That same rooting procedure was successful on my micromax A50. It should work on A25 too. I am never afraid of taking a little risk. I haven't been successful so far. I will try again after some time. If you want to revert back to its original state, you will have to unroot your phone with the SuperOneClick software and then flash the original unmodified boot.img back to your phone and maybe do a complete factory reset.

Hey please root your phone fast. And upload a video in youtube with detailed instructions........ please do fast man..... I wanna root it....

ok,sure.....
Download the following files.
1) Unsecured boot.img (zip contains unsecured boot.img + A25 scatter file)
2) SP.FlashTool
3) A25_USB_VCOM_Drivers
4) UnlockRoot
5) Original boot.img (You don't need to download this to root the device)
STEPS TO FLASH BOOT.IMG:
1) 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) It will search for drivers, select the USB_VCOM_Drivers u downloaded from above links. You may have to go to Device Manager to manually install the driver.
10) By that time if SPFlashTool shows some error then don't panic, just make sure that there is no ongoing flashing process on SPFlashTool n if the device is showing battery charging animation then it's safe to detach the cable. Detach the cable n follow step 7 again.
11) 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.
then use superoneclick and press root ....no need to install busybox,superoneclick installs it

Rooted successfully
Thanks to mastermind and other users first
I even rooted using superoneclick(this provided me drivers for micromax a25) and then used Unlock Root given in guide by mastermind1024.
By the way Flashing is the step to be taken care of. But rooting would be easy.I will be giving detail guide for this a25 smarty shortly. Keep posting

[SOLVED] Xolo q1010i fingerprint error

hey guys....
did anyone encountered this error while upgrading 4.2.2 to 4.4.2???
installing update.zip through stock recovery???
Installing update….

here's the solution just flash this file with on stock recovery update.zip
just put it in root folder of internal memory or SD card... simple
Tested by me:good:
thanks to @K.khiladi

This error is because original 4.2.2 has been changed. Following are causes and solution.
1. Custom Recovery installed. - Install stock recovery through SP Tool.
2. Exposed framework installed. - Uninstall exposed installer and framework also.
Also see any other major change you have changed.
Reply if have any query.

Hi Khiladi... i got notification about the update, i have downloaded 4.71Mb update.zip in my phone memory. I go to xolo care, check for updates, select the update.zip and hit continue. But nothing happens. I am not able to install that update. Can you help me. Pl mention the steps in simple words as I am a not a developer.
Just for your information, I had tried installing the Kitkat update. It had worked for me but I too had faced battery issues. Hence the service station guy had again reset my phone to 4.2.2. On seeing this post, i am hopeful that if i 1st install the 4.71Mb update and then install the Kitkat update it might work fine.
Hence do guide me on how to install the 4.71Mb update.
Thanks

That's because ART eats up internal space! You need to have >800MB free before you switch to ART. Switch back to dalvik, make some space and you're done.

Anyone have that bug of play store where the download shows no progress, just the moving bar?
The apps still download but no progress is shown in the notification bar.

Which method is prefferable and how to get warranty back?
Can someone please confirm the procedure for gaining warranty back...?
My thoughts are these:
1.I flash the Canvas a1 stock ROM (mentioned on index page at xda) using philz recovery..
2.And then install stock recovery and remove the philz recovery.
3.relock the bootloader.
Doing this procedure will gain me my warranty back and I can install OTA updates. ?
Someone Please confirm it.
Also what's the difference between using recovery to install rom and using sp flash tools ?

I can't get back my warranty flag to yes .. Can u tell what's the problem ?

Warranty flag still no!
I tried the way as u said but still i didnt get my warranty flag as yes. Plz help me Senior

[Q] [SOLVED] Android One bricked. Unable to even start the phone. Help pls...

Recently, I tried to install a custom ROM of Android L (beta), which bricked my device (Canvas A1).
My device Neither boots nor able to go to recovery mode or fastboot.
Pressing power button or Power+Volume Up isn't booting anything.
My bootloader is actually unlocked.
So I tried to flash stock ROM using SP Flashing Tool and it downloaded successsfully.
But still not booting.
Is there any other way to unbrick it rather than going to Micromax Service Center??
Thanks in Advance

Problem solved!
Actually, I had used an old version of SP Tools which didn't support MTK6582 scatter configs.
Then v.5.1424 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/canvas-a1/development/official-stock-rom-canvas-a1-t2887150 helped me out and I successfully downloaded the stock ROM in meta-mode.
For users who encounter the problem:
First, Install VCOM drivers for MTK devices..
Then install Android CDC Gadget Drivers.
Download the KitKat stock ROM.. (See instructions there)
Use SP Flash Tools v5.1424 from there to download it.
Use both 'download' and 'firmware upgrade' modes to flash.
Other issues after flashing:
Also fixed IMEI issues using http://en.miui.com/thread-10061-1-1.html (Needs unlocked bootloader again)
Fixed Wi-fi error using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2730486 (Needs root access)
Rooted KitKait using TWRP recovery and installed SuperSu 2.40 without bootloader unlock (doesnot void warranty if warranty present)

For users who encounter the problem:
To get warranty back by resetting flash counter, choose "Firmware Upgrade" in SP Tools, which will automatically lock bootloader and set flash_counter=0
You can check it by running the command "fastboot getvar all" in fastboot mode using ADB kit or tools in PC.

Actually, I had used an old version of SP Tools (v.5.13) which didn't support MTK6582 scatter configs.
Then v.5.1424 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/canvas-a1/development/official-stock-rom-canvas-a1-t2887150 helped me out and I successfully downloaded the stock ROM in meta-mode.
For users who encounter the problem:
To get warranty back by resetting flash counter, choose "Firmware Upgrade" in SP Tools, which will automatically lock bootloader and set flash_counter=0
You can check it by running the command "fastboot getvar all" in fastboot mode using ADB kit or tools in PC.
Also fixed IMEI issues using http://en.miui.com/thread-10061-1-1.html (Needs unlocked bootloader again)
Fixed Wi-fi error using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2730486 (Needs root access)
Rooted again using TWRP recovery and installed SuperSu 2.40 without bootloader unlock (doesnot void warranty if warranty present)

Flash this file (unrar before) via odin, (i used 3.09).
Open Kingo Root, it should say already rooted. Click Root Again. it will install Super SU 2.02. Update binarywith Normal method.
Don't update Super SU via Google Play it will failed,
I rooted my phone yesterday.
Good Luck

After that maybe You coluld try root with Kingo new version, without flashing boot.tar, it was released few days ago. I am sorry for you problem.

So, did you make it ?

I've Rooted my Samsung Galaxy Grand Plus GT-I9060I (single sim)
Baseband: I9060IXXY0ANL6
Kernel: 3.10.17-255453
build number: KTU84P.I9060IXXU0AOA8
used the boot.img from this thread
ran kingo root
problems are:
disables the rotation sensor (cant want videos sideways)
on boot root triangle is shown(haven't tried root triangle go away yet (but disappears when you flash stock rom)
cant update SuperSu binary (manually, automatically, Superuser version fails too)
We still need CWM if anyone could help me I've setup Ubuntu (dual boot) and already made a custom rom with root using android kitchen but cannot flash it as need Recovery (odin cant execute the on flash scripts that the android kitchen compiles with the roms)

My sensor is not workng too, but i don0t care much about that. I haven't triangle, just red exclamation mark when device start to boot. Super Su can't update too. Everything else is OK. Device is rooted and i removed stupid apps. CWM still needed as you said.
