Probably not, as only popular phones will get the good stuff.
Unfortunately, MTK phones don't have much development going on beyond the point of rooting.
Sorry :/

Flashing this should be similar to all MTK6575 devices.
You can use SP-FlashTool or SP-MDT tool.
However, you need to have a copy of the firmware rom and the customer recovery.img.

The guide to an insertion by means of SP Flash Tool for all MT6575/77 of devices
first of all what did you try if ur sure at all ur cp clean try this
turn off hold vol+ and power after u have blank release and press hold menu B for 3 sec if no recovery try this method
The guide to installation of modified recovery (separately from a full insertion) for all MT6575/77 of devices
It is required to us:
1). SP Flash Tool program. SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1224.01.
2). MT6575 USB VCOM drivers.
3). A factory insertion for your smartphone.
4). CheckSum_Generate program.
5). (unessentially) Modified recovery.img for your smartphone.
Download already ready Modified Recovery with all necessary files:
modified recovery for i9300MT6575.zip
Instruction:
0). We unpack archives SP Flash Tool, MT6575 USB VCOM, CheckSum_Generate and archive with an insertion. We copy the CheckSum_Generate program in the folder with an insertion and we start it (in the folder the file of checksums Checksum.ini will be generated). If you have modified recovery, the recovery.img file in the folder with an insertion is replaced with your modified.
1). We switch off the smartphone. The cable isn't connected to the computer.
2). We take out and insert back the battery.
3). (pass, if drivers are already established) we Connect phone to the computer a cable. The operating system will find the new device — specify to system the folder with the MT6575 USB VCOM driver (for the version of OS).
4). (pass, if drivers are already established) we Disconnect a cable from the computer.
5). We start the SP Flash Tool program.
6). We press the Scatter-loading button and we choose the file MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt or MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt (it lies in the folder with an insertion).
7). We press the Download button.
8). We connect phone to the computer a cable. The program should see and begin it an insertion. If phone isn't found, disconnect it from computers, pull out and insert the battery and anew connect to the computer.
9). After the termination of an insertion we disconnect phone.
10). It is ready!!!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Download already ready Modified Recovery with all necessary files:
modified recovery for i9300MT6575.zip
It is possible to establish modified recovery together with installation of an insertion of phone.
But, if the insertion at you is already established, the system is already adjusted under you, and anew to stitch an insertion it would not be desirable, it is possible to establish modified recovery, without mentioning system and other parts of the device.
For this purpose use "The guide to an insertion by means of SP Flash Tool for all MT6575/77 of devices". Only before an insertion (Download button pressing) remove ticks opposite to all points, except RECOVERY. The prevention of the SP Flash Tool program we answer Yes.

2) It take's a while but the you habe a fully flashtool compatible backup of the whole smartphone.
3) After you can find your backup under "<mtktools_folder>/backup/<device_name>
4) Send me or upload the "recovery.img" file from that folder.

Yes you can use it. This recovery.img is specialy made for your/this device.
I asked because when someone else knows for which device the recovery is.
And because i have the phone from fastcardtech but their customer support ist really crap and i search a clean cwm or flashtool update.
