Step 1

Download the modded boot image (get here https://www.dropbox.com/s/k52ryk51nna0z8v/boot.img?v=0mcng)

Step 2

Download tools needed (get here https://www.dropbox.com/s/g1nkd5bthu1v4dq/tools_needed.zip?v=0mcng)

Step 3

Download N3 system img, its uploaded in split file (10 in all), here are the links:

(Someone please download then upload a single image... Bt each image is 10mb(Approximately))

Step 4

Extract contents of tools_needed folder and install 7zip

(Just for convenience sake, here's the 7z app dowload page, choose according to installed OS, x86 or x64(whichever makes you happier)):

http://www.7-zip.org/download.html

Step 5

Use 7zip to extract the 10 split sys.yaffs2.img file

(this can be done by copying them to the same folder the right clicking and selecting 7zip, extract archive)

Step 6

Boot your N3 into fast boot mode (this is done easily by removing the battery, and while holding volume-down button on plug in your usb cable,

then wait till you see the TECNO logo displayed on the screen, wait for 5 second then release the volume-down button)

Step 7

FLASHING THE TECNO:

At this juncture you need to stop every other thing you've been doing while you were doing this and concentrate!!!

We're ready to flash...

At this point I'm right to guess we've all installed our ADB drivers using the Android universal ADB installer. If not go here to find out how to do so

http://www.nairaland.com/1261265/solution-boot-loop-bricked-techno#15537985

Now, run Android AIO flasher.exe (found in tools needed folder)

Next, in the AIO flasher window, the very first menu is what concerns us i.e. where its written fastboot flasher (Nandroid Restorer)

(the others we shall explain in later tutorials)

click boot

click Select file(browse to where you saved the boot.img you downloaded above)

click erase

click flash

YOU MUST wait for the black window below to show "writing boot...OK" before you know its done

Congratulations you're almost done!!

Simply repeat the same process for the sys.yaffs2.img file, only this time, we go:

click System

click Select file(browse to where you saved the sys.yaffs2.img you downloaded above)

click erase

click flash

Once again

YOU MUST wait for the black window below to show "writing sys.yaffs2.img OK" before you know its done.

it should take about 50 seconds, depending on your system specs.

Lastly

Unplug the usb cable,

now, while holding "volume-up" plug it back

keep holding volume up till you enter the Android 3e stock recovery menu.

using volume up and down to move

select "wipe cache", PRESS power button to select

When this is finished

Select "wipe data/factory reset"

When this is done restart your phone

These last two steps are important..else you may have boot-loop
