Using Flash Tools to Flash TWRP Recovery to A116
Requirements:
TWRP Rewcovery
Flash Tool
A computer
A Micromax A116 (obviously)
Steps:-
1. Install drivers for your phone using Micromax drivers.
2. Extract the Stock ROM folder and replace recovery.img with TWRP recovery.
3. Extract and open the SP Flash Tools.
4. In SP Flash Tools, click on Scatter-Loading and the program will ask you the location of the scatter loading file for your device.
5. In the extracted folder of the stock rom, go to the folder named "S9201_MP_F4_B1_IN_MMX_0.16_flasher_user" and select the file "MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc" which is our scatter loading file.
Check only recovery.img, preloader and uncheck all others.
6. Switch off your phone (Remove the battery to make sure it is switched off).
7. In Flash Tool, go to Options and Click USB Mode so that it is enabled. Click options again and then go to DA Download All > Speed and finally select High Speed.
8. Click the Download option (present on the right of Firmware
> Upgrade option) and the flash tool will start looking for your phone.
9. Connect your phone now. The Flash Tool will start the flashing process, the progress of which can be viewed from a yellow progress bar at the bottom of the flash tool.
**Don't interrupt this process as it can potentially brick your device.
**Make sure no power interruption takes place. (Use a laptop to ensure this).
10. After the process completes, a green ring will appear on your device signalling that the process was successful.
11.Disconnect your phone.
Auto Root Installation:-
This version has the built-in Auto-Root feature for non-rooted devices...
Steps :
1. After flashing, reboot -> system -> it will ask you whether you want to install SuperSU -> Swipe to Install
2. After reboot, there is a SuperSU Installer
3. Connect 3G data or Wi-Fi first then only start SuperSU Installer -> click at TWRP & it will download files then auto reboot & auto install
4. After reboot, SuperSU.apk will be there at app drawer... :good:

Ha ha ha, cool then, i thought its a new thread, what is the major difference if i upgrade?
@kumar abhishek
how were you able to keep the size of this twrp recovery to just within 6mb?.
from what i have checked on the porting tool of yuweng, twrp 2.5.0.0 requires the recovery partition to be adjusted to 7mb?
i am trying to port twrp for the a919i which is similar to the a116 hd.
tia
cant see SD
hi
i flashed the twrp and the root also done thanks
but this does not show the external SD do i need to do any thing to see it

Rooting MediaTek MTK6589 phones without Flash Tools:-
EDIT: Just use Framaroot. Simple. No PC required. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276. Just install the App and use one of the exploits.
*You can ignore this* OLD METHOD: (use this if you have a lot of time to waste )
Get "Motochopper, developed by djrbliss" for rooting Motorola devices. It works on most devices running Jelly bean 4.1 and above.
Original post (requires logging in) / Thread on XDA / # Alternate Download (Mirror)#
Here's what you need before you Root.
1. Any Phone with MediaTek MTK6589 Processor and Jelly Bean 4.1+
2. Drivers for ADB (connects the pc with the phone through USB Debugging) - there are many sources to get these drivers. If you're running the stock micromax firmware, it's found onboard when you connect the usb. For others running custom firmware, you could download from moulnisky.com. Even windows update might automatically install these drivers for you, but it's time consuming. After you've installed this, proceed to the next step to find out if you've established a proper connection between phone and pc.
3. Connect the phone to PC via USB cable and run the motochopper (run.bat file). press ok. then connect the phone to pc and enable USB debugging from the developer tools. Now the tool should push the exploit and root your phone. if no device is detected, go back to step two and install the correct drivers. if it's done, you're a superuser.
Note: In Android 4.2, Developer Tools will be hidden by default. You'll have to enable it first. For that, Go to Settings > About Phone > Build Number > Tap 7 Times.
Wanna Unroot and go back to Normal user?
SuperSu > Settings > Full Cleanup and Manually Reboot.
Installing Custom Recovery:-
This is a Must-if you have a rooted phone. Install a custom recovery before you start changing any system files. this will come in handy in case you mess up your phone and stuck in bootloop. It is commonly used for installing unofficial firmwares and also for backing up your perfectly working firmware.
To install a Custom Recovery, follow these steps. ( Root permissions needed )
1. Root the phone (refer above).
2. Download Mobileuncle MTK Tools from the Play Store.
. Download a Custom Recovery of your choice and place it on your external SD card without any folders. the recovery image file must have the word recovery in it for the app to detect it. i.e twrprecovery,recovery-twrp,etc.. so whatever sources you get the recovery image from, rename it accordingly.
Clockworkmod and TWRP are the most commonly used custom recoveries. It's up to you to decide which one you're installing. TWRP vs Clockworkmod: Which custom recovery is the best?
TWRP Custom Recovery
Clockworkmod Custom Recovery
3. Now run Mobileuncle Tool. Recovery Update > You'll find the recovery image there. Select and confirm to install. Done.
More info: Backups taken with clockworkmod don't work with twrp. so choose your family wisely.
Re-installing the Stock Recovery:-
If you want to revert to the Stock Recovery at some point due to some reason, HERE is the stock recovery taken from the stock firmware. You can flash it through Mobileuncle just like you flashed custom recovery.
Launching the Phone in Recovery mode:-
Switch off the Phone and wait till it's completely off. Pressing Volume Up + Power will enter the Recovery mode.
Factory Restore:-
Wanna Upgrade to a Newer version of Android ? or Have you just messed up your Phone ? Worry-Not. Here's the solution for all your problems. As the saying goes " A MediaTek Phone can never be Hard-bricked ". It can only be Soft-bricked and then it's easy to resurrect it back from the Dead with SmartPhone Flash Tool.
Here's what you need:
1. Micromax Micromax Canvas HD (I'm not sure if this firmware will work with any variants of this Device.)
2. The Latest Firmware for Micromax Canvas HD: S9201_4.2_MP_F3F8_B1_IN_MMX_14_FLASHER_USER (Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean, Released on 18-October-2013)
3. Download the latest version of Smart Phone Flash Tools: Download v3.1312.0.139
4. MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port Drivers - (Download) - This is the most important part. If you don't install these drivers, SP Flash Tools will not work.
Note: these aren't the same drivers that comes with the Phone or those Unsigned Drivers provided by many sources. These are signed drivers and works with all versions of Windows (includes 7,8 x64 versions)
How to install: Don't download the first file (it's just an installer). Get the two other files which are the Drivers. Keep them in a folder and extract them. You will have two .inf files. Right click on both of them and install. Simple.
5. After downloading all the required files and installing the drivers, power off your phone completely and remove the USB cable. Now remove the battery from the phone.
6. Extract the zip file containing the micromax firmware to some folder and then run SP Flash Tools. Now select the Scatter-Loading File which is inside the extracted folder named as "MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc". Press Download and connect the USB cable to the phone (without battery). It takes around two minutes to complete. Removing it mid-way will only mess-up the phone. After a Green circle is shown on screen, you can remove the cable and turn on the phone. That's all.
Note: If you're upgrading from Android 4.1 to 4.2, for the first time, You might enter an app called TP Upgrade that will run on the first boot. It's a Nice app. It upgrades your TouchPad drivers to the latest version and will ask for confirmation.but the thing is "DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING ON YOUR SCREEN WHILE IT'S THERE (NOT EVEN THE OK BUTTON)". It will start by it's own and completes in around 5 minutes approximately. If you accidentally touch the screen, your TouchPad will stop working. Now, Don't Panic. Welcome to the League. Now remove the battery from the phone and restart. You should see the same TP Upgrade coming up again. Have some snacks and don't do what you did last time. It'll be fine.

This method is not yet popular among many Canvas HD users. But this one works without the need for any custom recovery. So you don't have to go through those complex procedures trying to install usb drivers for your device or removing the battery and connecting the usb. I tested this method and it works flawlessly.

It's not necessary. You should install it only if you love to flash custom ROMs (Customized Android versions) to your phone. You can flash unofficial android versions to your phone with it. It also allows you to make a backup of your stock ROM which you can't with the stock recovery. You should always make a backup of your stock android to make sure you can always reset your phone back to normal whenever something bad happens (that is if you brick your phone trying to install a ROM).
If you only looking for swapping the memory cards, root is more than enough. Look at this Guide for instructions.

Root Micromax Canvas HD A116
(without installing Custom Recovery)
Most Guides talk about using SP Flashing Tools to flash the Custom recovery and then rooting the phone. But Here we root the phone first and then install Custom recovery. This method is much easier. You don't have to install any Custom recovery to root your Canvas HD. Which means, you don't have to go through those complex procedures trying to install usb drivers for your device or removing the battery and connecting the usb. I used Motochopper by djrbliss to root my Canvas HD. I didn't face any problem. so it works. Here is the link

How to Swap internal and external Memory Card - link
Although your phone is powerful enough to run high definition games, the manufacturer has provided little space to install any such games. Your internal memory of 2Gb storage fills up as soon as you install something like Need for Speed Most wanted. So the first thing you must do after rooting the phone is swapping the memory cards. Insert a 16Gb external memory card and use this trick to transform the external memory card into internal memory. Now you can have six hd games at the same time on your phone

5. MobileUncle MTK Tools v2.9.8
Procedure:
1. Download the Framaroot application form the above link and transfer it to SD card
2. Now go to Settings>Security and put check mark on Unknown Soruces
3. Now use file manager and browse to the location where you have placed Framaroot Application

2. Rename the file to Recovery.img and place it in the root of SD Card.
3. Now open MobileUncle and tap on Recovery Update, it will search the file by itself, you just have to select the file and confirm.
4. It will then ask whether you want to boot into recovery, if you want to confirm you can tap on yes otherwise its not required.
5. Now open SuperSU and go to settings, scroll down to Full Unroot and tap on it. The process would be finished within 1 or 2 secs now you are on Stock v4.2.1 that too unrooted.
Now your warranty is intact you can go to service center for any help from them
Note: It will install SuperSU v1.34 but v1.51 is also released, so you can upgrade your SuperSU by flashing the zip via custom recovery.
Very Important: I am just trying to help you guys, I am not responsible for anything that might go wrong, follow this tutorial at your own risk.

What kind of changes are you talking about? If you are talking about the changes which you have made through Gravity Box and other modules of Xposed framework then you should just uninstall the Xposed Framework.

It WORKED for me!!!
After searching for 3 months,
I've finally found a working ROOT solution for Grand Prime G531H.
I want to thank the author and want to write step-by-step how I followed him.
------------------
Below I've refined the original manual:
Step 1. Prepare your phone for rooting process.
On computer, copy SuperSU-Pro-v2.46-Patched zip file onto SD card.
On phone, go to Settings --> Developer Options --> Check the Manufacturer unlock :::: This will turn off a lock
On phone, hit the Volume Down+Power+Home at the same time :::: This will Initiate Download mode on Grand Prime
Step 2. Use Odin
On computer, open Odin. Connect your Phone to PC :::: Odin will recognize your device in Download mode
On Odin, click AP --> choose recovery.tar.md5 file --> click 'Start' on Odin. :::: Odin will start working and your phone will auto-reboot when it finishes
Step 3. Install SuperSU
On phone, hit the Volume UP+Power+Home --> slide the bar to continue :::: This will enter TWRP (recovery)
On TWRP, click install --> choose SuperSU-Pro-v2.46-Patched zip file in SD card --> slide the bar --> hit restart :::: This will install SuperSU and phone will restart
Step 4. Optimize your root!
On phone, open SuperSU app --> click PLAY STORE (to update/install via Play store) ---> hit update/install (in Play store).
Open SuperSU app again --> Update Normal --> hit Restart phone.
This finishes the last step of rooting. Your phone is rooted!
*You can check with Root Checker Basic app.

This picture might help. Screenshot is taken from G531H that I rooted using this guide.
Rooting on some other devices does not require turning-off FRP lock.
But it's always better to turn-off FRP lock (to check Manufacturer unlock).

Hello guys..........
There are a lot of tutorials on XDA abt how to root or flash a Custom Recovery on Canvas Xpress 2....
Today I am going to show a nother method.....
STEPS:
1)Download the new Kingroot app from their site by Googling it or by going to the link I'm giving down below.
2)Install the apk......ignore all prompts that will say not to install and proceed
3)Now I have successfully rooted this phone a lot of times with this app on Lollipop and its been successful....this app also roots other stubborn devices too
4)Start the root process.............do not worry..i say do not worry ata ll if your phone reboots....its absolutely fine.....just do this one step when the phone reboots...
If your phone reboots...then after it has restarted...open the multitasking menu and you'll see the kingroot app running in the background.thanks to Lollipop's new feature of keeping tasks even when a phone is rebooted........Now open the app and let it run on mainstream mode....(i.e open it)
5)If it fails.....try again.it has to work..and it will
6)Now when the phone is rooted......install the RAshr app from playstore or from the link im giving....if u go for the link...you have to install apk...
7)You are now nearly done.....
8)I am going to provide you a link to a custom recovery.......here i am using TWRP 3.0.0 which is amazing
9)the file will be called recovery.img.......don't change it.....
10)Select the img file from the app....and flash it.. You're done....
If you encounter any problem...just comment down below and i'll be ahppy to help.......
P.S. Give a thanks if u find it useful.

1) Kingroot: https://kingroot.net/thank-you-for-downloading-kingroot-for-android/ [ Downlaod will automatically start]
