Install failed !!!
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
Still the same situation.... Install failed.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] jramirezw:
Just my two cents; I got it working on my spare BLU Life One X after replacing the META.INF folder and using the CWM recovery from this post.

After playing with it for a few hours, here's what I found:

It boots up fine, and WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, mobile data, and the camera seem to be working.

The dialer and dual SIM functions are a hit and miss... I got to make calls easily, but USSD codes sometimes work, other times they don't.

I tried on multiple PCs, but the internal storage doesn't mount.

Audio and video encoding/playback don't work either - the camera crashes immediately after recording video, and Apollo, Google Play Music and the sound recorder freeze and say "Unable to play file" when I try to play any music.

Another thing, though, I realised the build.prop file hasn't been touched from the original Wiko Stairway version, so the phone identifies itself as a Wiko Stairway, and operates at 320 ppi instead of 440 (forgive my OCD).

But otherwise, everything works pretty well for an early build; hats off to the developers :good:
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
Thanks for the feedback.

* USSD code doesn't work is correct. It works for certain and doesn't work for certain numbers. Use pibalance for the same.

* This ROM doesn't support video recording. If you try to do so your phone will freeze and you will have to power off and reboot.

*Dual Sim functionality is pretty much stable. Rarely it isn't stable. But 90% of the time it is stable. Try to use your area firmware in case you find it very unstable.

*In v0.13 there is a problem with default music player. Third party apps should work and u can check it.

* U can edit your build prop according to your needs but be careful and just replace the ones which can be changed.

Good luck.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
Change the meta inf and flash.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Andy1911:
does the camera work or the same problem??
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
Still no luck. Tried as above said but failed in CWM also.

Going out of station for 2 days.. will try when i have time.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] jramirezw:
Yes the both cameras work as a viewfinder, and you can change settings and whatnot. But the app crashed whenever I tried to record video.

For everyone who are having problems with the ZIP, I used 7-Zip to replace META.inf, flashed the CWM from stock using MobileUncle Tools, rebooted to recovery, wiped everything (factory reset, cache, Dalvik), and then installed. Hope this helps.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] NerdiestGeek:
So is there a workaround for the camera/bluetooth problems? Using third party camera? These are the only two features preventing me from flashing this ROM. :)

Seems good so far. Anyone got any benchmarks?
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Andy1911:
guys a good news.... [MENTION=3855291]suhas.holla[/MENTION] is ready to port twrp 2.7 and is ready.. soon coming for canvas turbo..... so enjoy.... :)

---------- Post added at 10:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 AM ----------

@Santosh M update the op, its kk 4.4.4 not 4.4.3 :P
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
Guy's please help me.....I want to use this Rom for daily use. The below error stops me installing CM.

"This package is for "stairway"devices. This is a "MTK"

status 7

Install aborted.."

So I have to change the Build.pro.or what? Please help me......
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
Open the Meta inf folder...Inside that open updater script ( Open using notepad ++ ). Delete the first line and save the file. Now repack the ROM and flash it. Now your ROM will get installed.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
Wooow...... It is awsome. Nice look and very fast... have not tested all the features will give u full feedback. I think OTG not working. will check again...

some issues bro?
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Srika:
list of bugs

list of bugs after using this rom for one day'

1.bluetooth

2. video recording

3. no usb mounting to pc

4. i cant listen music with appolo or google play music keep on saying requested track cant b played. Though u can use mx player as audio player for this.

5. while setting ringtones you can hear nothin

6. signal errors for every 5 min for both sims.

positives:

1.speedness

2. gaming

3. no heat issue this solved my phones heating problem

thanks for such awesome rom try to rectify the bugs ASAP

i will b the tester for the experiments
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
Note the following :

1) Bluetooth won't work. ( Atleast for some more months until the original dev is able to figure out where bluetooth codes are going wrong )

2) Video recording is not supported in this ROM ( If u are a video Buffy this ROM is not for you )

3) USB mounts well ( Just go to Settings->storage and enable USB connection there )

4) Apollo and in general music isn't working in v0.13. You will have to switch to a lower version ( v0.12 and below ) where this works without any fuss.

5) I don't know about what u r speaking. In general ringtone works very well. ( Maybe i am not sure if this music bug of v0.13 has an effect on ringtone as well. I don't own the device and hence can't confirm )

6) Signals are pretty much very stable. Sim 1 is 100% stable. Sim 2 though not 100% stable is pretty much stable only. ( I suggest a reboot and this should be pretty ok )
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Boy Daemom:
Tried this rom. Right now its full of bugs. Most of the bugs are alreaddy mentioned in the above posts. So instead of repeating the same, i m gonna share a link with you guys.

Devs please check weather its of any use or not ? Its official kitkat firmware for Blu Life One X (MT6589T)

http://blukitkat.wordpress.com/mt6589t/life-one-x/
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
This is fake one. This came months months back and is just kernel source code. This is not a ROM. You can download urself and see.

This ROM is not full of bugs for your information ( Bluetooth and video recording are the major bugs ).
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] FSadino:
Let our developers continue to work on this rom. Like any other rom, need to be improved continuously. Only our feedback is important but fail to look for new rom's false links or source codes. Our developers have the tools they need to bring us this fantastic rom to our devices. Just trying to help rom looking for new bugs, nothing more.

best regards
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
Hi,

Charging through wall charger is slow. Charging indicator light shows in green while charging. Is this common or some thing wrong for me only?

Edit:While charging until battery reaches 90%, the charging indicator light is in red. once the battery reaches 90% the light turns in green.

Nothing wrong. I misunderstood that my phone is malfunctioning.

version V0.15 is out in original thread. Hope we will get it in our turbo too.....
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] ashishcvhatkar222655:

i am a rookie in all this...so if i ask something silly.......plz dnt mind :o

i hve intex aqua i7 , all its hardware specs are exactly same as micomax a250 canvas turbo....so is there any chance i can use this custom rom on my intex aqua i7 ??

Thanks in advance.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
Why to quote whole OP for it. No you can't use it in your device. Though same processor kernel and drivers differ. If you have kernel source of your device you can compile kernel,port and use in your device
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] perfectprashant:
Hi guys ! I am using canvas turbo with default os. The only problem i am facing is i can't watch youtube videos in 1080p , so i was asking if it was possible to watch 1080p videos on youtube in this rom?

Thanks a lot!:fingers-crossed:
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
If you are using Stock rom and Stock recovery, then you have to install CWM(clock work mod recovery) or TWRP recovery.

Then take backup of your current rom, wipe data then install CM.

Read the instructions in first post.....which will guide you clearly to install CM11.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Annirudh Sajith:
I am number one rookie in all this so please could you u people post a video
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Annirudh Sajith:
Why is it that my installation gets aborted

Do u mean CM then see the first post. Read the instructions carefully. If you can't understand go and search in you tube.

[MENTION=6118475]Annirudh Sajith[/MENTION]

Which version you have tried. For me V0.19 is install aborted. and for V0.17 flashed successfully but not booting. Try V0.17 may be it can work for you. For me V0.15 worked perfect.

Need to flash for A250

Hi,

I`m Thinking of flashing this ROM for my A250. However I couldn`t locate the GAPPS file download as the link is broken. I want to make sure that I can flash this ROM without GAPPS?

Please help.

Regards,

Pavan
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
Please find the gaaps link bellow.

https://yadi.sk/d/bYJx2jvPauggU

Read the instructions carefully. Take backup of your current rom and follow the steps.

Good luck
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] pavanbl:
Thanks Sai for your quick response. However after looking at the reviews I see that there are no of issues with this ROM. Is that all fixed ? Currently I`m on MERE which was working fine until recently my notification bar got disappeared. So now I have to flash it.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
Some things are not fixed yet. Hope will be fixed in next update. Devs are not interested in this thread. So the progress is slow. Anyway test it your self.......
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
It's updated till v0.17 which includes working Bluetooth. The last available thing is 0.19. There s no major diff between these two. Except video recording this rom is fully stable.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] pavanbl:
So what else is pending issues in this ROM? Is Cam fully stable.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
What do u mean by camera fully stable !
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
So many times i tried v0.17, but failed to boot. when i tested the zip file in pc i found errors. Then re downloaded the file again. But again failed in zip file test. Errors are like camera.apk is broken. I doubt that some thing is wrong. The rom size is 294 MB. Correct me if i am wrong.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Santhosh M:
The guy who ported v0.17 owns a turbo and he is my friend. He informed me that it's tested working and he booted in his phone. So I presume it works correctly.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] pavanbl:
What I meant is whether Camera is fully functional. Looking at the earlier posts in this thread there were issues with Camera. Also what are the know issues you think still persist. Let me know so that I can see if I can find any fix on them.

Regards,

Pavan

Hey Guys !! You guys are doing really great work here. :good:

By the way , I tried to flash this rom (0.19) into my canvas turbo and it failed (it said something like "it was made for stairway device only" ) . I read one of the posts in this thread saying editing the metainf would solve the problem. But i am really a beginner in this stuff, so could any one provide me with detailed steps to do it . Or may be provide a link to a page which explains the procedure, or many of you have successfully flashed the rom so maybe you could share the rom zip which you flashed. :confused:

Thanks

Hi

Try v0.17. Not much difference between v0.17 and v0.19.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] suyash14993:
True that there's not much difference between the two... But still I can port v0.19 for you people.

Some bugs are fixed in it. Specially dual sim works great in 0.19

I will only port if you demand it. Press thanks button

also visit my new project MIUI for A250... You will enjoy that rom a lot. I post only stable versions here.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
No body demanded for v0.19. We are waiting for good update in original thread. But there us no update since v0.19. If you have interest and time, it will be great to us.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] suyash14993:
There was a discussion going on and I have a ported 0.19, it's just that I didn't upload it. So I asked.

Btw what do you mean by good update...?

Almost all the bugs in cm11 are fixed and hence there's no more updates.

Please define your "good update" thing.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] sai.suri1983:
Good update: I mean 3g in both sims, wifi tethering, USB OTG, and a bugs like debugging notification, ussd codes. For me changing theme and changing wallpaper is giving errors like "system ui stops working" When I change wallpaper with another default wallpaper it was not appear.

Thank you for your work. Really appreciate.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] suyash14993:
3g in both sim and system ui fc is fixed in 0.19. Even ussd codes Worrell in it.

My Reviews

After using this ROM for a week here are my reviews, not sure if really matters:

1. The Phone is smooth and without any lag.

2. The looks are good just like Kitkat.

3. Speed is also good. Switching between the apps and working on multiple apps works faster.

4. The battery backup is low. I mean earlier I was using another ROM which used to last for a day. However this one barely crosses 10 hrs.

5. The vol and music is awesome. My earlier ROM had a loud vol wherein the lowest was also very loud. This ROM had the correct match of min and max vols. The music app is really kool.

6. I couldn`t find Radio with this ROM, is there a fix to get the Radio as I would love to have it.

7. The buttons settings is really innovative. I could set lot of options in that.

8. I would want the battery style to have different colors, I tried using gravity box but somehow it does not do anything even after setting the colors.

9. The boot logo is really kool, however the booting takes around 20 secs which is too long. I have removed all the auto starts except 1

10. Camera works butterly smooth and takes really nice pics. Better than stock ROM.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] suyash14993:
