@prasad

Have u released a kernel for a7 yet??

I read through your procedures to root several times but can't really understand it ...

First i install cwm on unrooted phone?? Does this root the phone??

Then flash the update.zip from 'install zip from sd card' In recovery?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jesrani:
Prasad, between A5, Spice Mi355 and Micromax A52, which is a better buy? Is A7 worth the extra money?

A friend wants to buy. Usage will be calls, net, emails. Not going to play games. He wants to buy A52 for the 1Ghz processor but i advised against it as resolution is too low.

A5 is best amongst this.......but if u want front cam then go for A7 both hv same specs....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
No kernel for A7 yet.

To install CWM you dont need ROOT. Its the BIOS of your mobile like in PC.

1st install all ADB drivers, then get in fastboot as shown, then install CWM.

After which flash the update.zip.

Wait I suggest wait till this month end.

New cheap and better handsets from Karbonn , Spice, Gfive with great specs are coming below 10k range with ICS and JB on it.

So better wait and get something which is new rather than outdated device.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jesrani:
From where are G'five mobiles available? They have recently launched new mobiles.

Are you sure Karbonn is coming out with new models, A5 seems pretty recent.

How is Micromax A52, any idea?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jesrani:
My friend is looking at something around Rs.6,000 range only and had selected the A52 for 1Ghz processor. I am trying to convince him to buy something with better resolution, even though processor may be bit slow. He is not going to buy A24 or A18 for sure but the G'five A79 looks promising. However not sure of their quality, never even heard of them. For around 6,000 is A5 better choice?

Karbonn A5 ROM - Playstore not working - need solution

Hi,

I see that after installing ICS Rom and then latest update of ICS 4.0.3 on Karbonn A5 as provided here. I cannot run PlayStore ( white button on top-right ). Further, there js no gmail app, g-talk app and you tube app which is required to login to have access to playstore successfully.

Hence, my phone is now useless with only the default apps. Can anyone provide me a tested solution to get the Play-Store working again!

In MIUI go to multi sim setting and assign both sims their SUB by ticking the boxes...otherwise your phone will not recognize the sims...if it still dosen't work go to dual sim setting and tick both the boxes...if even then it dosen't work change your sim or exchange sim position

Short answer: because of the internal memory (only 150mb)

I want a solution for the phone memory like (link2sd) which needs root, app2sd didn't

Give me enough memory and i applied some commands with the adb to

make the phone install the apps to sdcard automatically but these solution didn't give

alot of space so the only solution is to root and try (link2sd)

Why i am not recommending you to use our roms is because when you install our rom you will get our phone's build.prop which can cause undesirable problem...and you can't backup yours without root...so better would be get the build of your phone through net

If you are using k-touch w619 ics rom, thats all but enough for A5. JB requires higher hardware configuration rather than ICS. Though many says ics is not possible for a processor of less than 1ghz clock speed, its not true. Developers made ics for galaxy mini, which is a lowest configured mobile possible to have android. But for JB you must require the hardware specifications.
