[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] General Thad 12TH RegCOBv:
Samsung core a2 clone

Hello, Thank you for your efforts in solving the above user Quantik's issue, mine is similar;

I cannot try Framaroot, iRoot, RootGenius,...since the phone's apps are constantly crashing(i can't install anything) although i can enable usb debug

I have tried Kingoroot, kingroot (from pc via usb) but after many restarts and re-enabling usb debug it reached 82% and failed.

I'm trying to root my device with this method:

Sp flash tool read back and mtk droid tools method

here are my specs

When I get to the part where I create my own CWM in MTK tools, I have this problem :

2 errors:

When i go in the backup directory of MTK tools, only the factory recovery exists, not a modified one. I have TRIED to attache my NoNmodified recovery.

Any advice?
