[Micromax A116] salaigeethan666:
No. I heard the Philippines version of Micromax canvas HD has already been upgraded to Android 4.2. And that the Indian version is coming this week. Micromax would most likely fix that recovery issue with it's update to Android 4.2.

EDIT: Did you say you are stuck at the recovery? That's bad o.O. Use sp flash tools to flash back the stock rom. It's the only way. It would have been easier if you had the custom recovery installed.

I have successfully rooted my Micromax A116 Canvas HD and swapped the storage. I want to ask you that if i unroot it back by cleaning up the supersu setting do i get my warranty back. Please help
[Micromax A116] salaigeethan666:
You will have the warranty as long as the service center doesn't find out you've been messing with the phone. So If you're visiting the Service center, make sure you don't leave any traces of Root or Custom recovery. If you have clockworkmod recovery installed, then flash the Stock Recovery.img first. It can be done the same way you flashed the clockworkmod. then unroot the phone. If you unroot the phone first, you won't be able to flash stock recovery.

I have uploaded my stock recovery from android 4.2. it should work.

Just wanted t as a question after obtaining root can we install rom manager and flash cwm through:confused:,it wuld be much easier and fast:cool:

if you take in your phone and they find supersu or any rooted apps then you may have some problem but there is no harm you can easily unroot your phone for warranty:highfive:

[Micromax A116] esukhdev:
Rooting voids warranty. However you can unroot it to and claim the warranty.
[Micromax A116] salaigeethan666:
nope. Rom manager does not support canvas hd. so you will have to flash it manually .

[Micromax A116] SkandaH:
Long time lurker, first time poster :D

Anyway, I used Motochopper to root Canvas HD back in middle of May. It was on Android 4.1.2. Motochopper works beautifully on MT6589 quad core devices. I used this as the common procedure (update su bin and Superuser from CWM) didn't work for me.

:good:
[Micromax A116] salaigeethan666:
Yes it does :laugh: Back in May, When I first got the phone, there was no way I could root my phone as all the guides were just about sp flash tools. It was my good luck, I stumbled upon this tool first :laugh: I tried a lot of tools before and none of them worked. I even tried bin4ry's tool which many claim to be working. but didn't work for me. Never on earth, I would have imagined this tool would root my so-called very tough to root device. Actually I found the link to the tool on some chinese forum and this is how it started :D I didn't find a single post on xda that mentioned about rooting canvas hd with this tool. so i started this thread. :fingers-crossed:
[Micromax A116] SkandaH:
Well, Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry needs some mod to work it on Canvas HD. I too confirm that it doesn't work by default (restoration isn't completed & the process hangs).

But v30 of Bin4ry's tool works beautifully for Spice Smart Flo Ivory Mi-450 which uses MediaTek 6577 processor.

[Micromax A116] salaigeethan666:
I'm not sure what causes it. but i heard the service center guys are very bad at handling the phones. Some say they don't even know how to flash the phone properly. So i say, flash the phone again with a custom firmware. Flash Stock ROM 4.2 (pre-rooted original micromax firmware with some changes) from my first post, and see if the problem persists. If it's still there, then it should be a problem with the hardware. You should ask for a replacement. Remember to unroot it before taking it to service center again. I hope it works.

How did you backup your stock recovery? I searched a lot but can not find a method to do this. If you know please tell how.
[Micromax A116] ePandit:
MTP and run as admin necessary?

Is it necessary to:

Change connect as mode to Media Storage (MTP)? No tutorial (about this tool) except this post has mentioned to do this.

Run the bat file as administrator instead of just clicking it?

Both of the above are not mentioned by the tool developer in his post.
[Micromax A116] hemanth86:
Ya. Connect as MTP mode. Do install drivers before by connecting as cd drive.

[BOLD]Don't run bat file as administrator. Instead double click. It's my experience.[/BOLD]

Tapatalked from Canvas HD
[Micromax A116] salaigeethan666:
1. connecting through other options doesn't work.

2. running as admin doesn't work

the tool was originally made by the developer for use with Motorola razr HD. the guide I have linked is for use with some chinese phone hdc galaxy.

for canvas hd, I posted it only because it works that way.
[Micromax A116] ePandit:
MTP not necessary

First of all thanks for your useful guide, the method works like a charm. I rooted my phone successfully within minutes.

1. I left the connection type 'USB Storage' (without mounting it) and it worked.

2. I ran run.bat as administrator as I do not see any harm in doing so instead it is as a safe play. From your comments it seems it can work by just double clicking too.
[Micromax A116] salaigeethan666:
i tried usb storage once and it failed. maybe it could work. we'll just let people decide it for themselves. :)

but regarding the second step. i don't know how it worked for you. running as admin doesn't work as expected for most people. the cmd will open and close without any further notification. so i suggest not running as admin. (running as admin is totally unnecessary)

[Micromax A116] salaigeethan666:
Yes. It is likely to work on any phone running on MT6589 chip and Jellybean os. so you may use this with dozens of other phones having the same chip like the micromax's doodle, doodle2, canvas4, etc.. there are literally hundreds of chinese rebranded phones using that particular chip.

Micromax A116 External storage to internal-problem

K, when i was using android 4.1.1 on my Micromax a116, i successfully rooted my phone using "MTK6589_SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1304.0.119" with the provided "MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" and "recovery.img" (Clockworkmod) and installed the "Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip" and "su-bin-3.1.1-arm-signed.zip" with the clockworkmod. I was also able to swap the storage in my phone successfully (i.e., internal storage become external storage and vise versa). for that i edited the "vold.fstab" file in system/etc using "ES file manager" (older version with root settings) with root access and changed sdcard0 to sdcard1 and vise versa. At that time even in my Settings ---> storage, the available internal storage was that of my 8gb microSD. So i was able to install all my apps and games into my MicroSD.

Now the problem is after i updated my phone to 4.2.1, i successfully rooted it with the same "MTK6589_SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1304.0.119" with the provided "MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" and "recovery.img" (Clockworkmod) (for 4.2.1) and installed "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.25.zip" because Superuser-3.1.3 is supported only for android 2.3 - 4.1. Now just like before i edited the "vold.fstab" and changed sdcard0 to sdcard1 and vise versa. But now even after my internal storage has changed to my 8gb MicroSD, all apps install only in my phone memory regardless of me changing the "Default write disk" options. I've tried absolutely everything but no luck. Please help me out here.

I'm attaching screenshots of my current storage menu page, this is after i have edited the vold.fstab file. and also i will attach my vold.fstab file for reviewing if ianything is wrong

Ok i think i solved this problem by installing "link2SD" found in play store and under it settings --> install location --> External.

Hope this helps others with the same problem i had.. Cheers!!
