[Help] [Need Devs] CWM for Micromax A56

Hello guyzzz...
I'm a micromax a56 user. The fone is rooted but we are unable to make a CWM for this
device. Its MSM7225a device. Android 2.3.5.
I can provide you any file u need. The CWM builder site din't worked too.
Its a pretty gud device too.
If there are any devs who can help in this matter please reply to this topic. Because it is needed for scripts and custom roms and many more.
I have the full rom dump, the factory flash file too(unrooted).
Please Help...!!!
Thanks in Advance.
Try this CWMR image. If you have fastboot, please test it first:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Run that from where you have the fastboot binary and this image unpacked. If it works, you should be booted into CWM. If all goes well, you can make it permanent by actually flashing:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
If you do not have fastboot, place the image in your sdcard and use flash_image from an ADB shell:
Code:
adb shell
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
If it does not work, you can simply restore the recovery partition with the stock recovery image via either of the above methods.
okkkk I'll try it tommorow...thankss
btw how do u made it.???

i tried this recovery using fastboot. It doesn't worked. But after knowing its clone can u do something else. ???
build.prop file of Micromax A56
this is the build.prop file you wanted of a56 extracted from my device. This will help. Micromax A56 is not mtk6573.
The recovery.img I uploaded is just a repack of the output from koush's CWM builder. It was unpacked to make sure all relevant files were in place, and only the difference was applied to the stock image. This basically means making sure all fstab files are sane (there are two in your image; one for emmc), and putting in the files in /sbin (including the recovery binary, which is basically CWM itself) and /res (resources like images).
Troubleshooting this would require a real build of CWM for your device. Or in case that other phone is known to have a recovery, then that will work too. Anyway, I have no build system in place to compile CWM at the moment, so someone else has to chime in. Unfortunately, there is little else I can do. Possibly we might have missed something, but we are not noticing.
What happens when you 'fastboot boot' the image? I want you to flash it, then tell us what happens.
i've done both...fastboot boot and flashing too. After doing that when it boots the screen goes blank in black...i'VE to pull the battery to start up the fone again.just like other recoveries.

[Q] How to enter bootloader/fastboot mode in MMX A116, posssible or not?

I was trying to follow this article to boot CWM without flashing it using fastboot via adb. This procedure needs to enter bootloader mode to execute fastboot command.
When I enter "adb reboot bootloader", the device reboots normally instead of going to bootloader mode. I tried other variations too like "adb reboot-bootloader" but non worked. I tried volume up/down/both with Power button combination but it boots to recovery instead of bootloader.
Is not it possible to boot into bootloader on MMX A116?
Is so is there any other method to boot into CWM without flashing it?
A116 is an mtk device which do not have fastboot u hv to use sp flash tools or mobile uncle tools

My phone is on bootloop now..Computer detects and drops frequently with each restart my phone makes. I can make a stable adb connection only when phone is in recovery mode(vol up+power). Can I use sp flash tools to flash full stock rom while I am on recovery mode? Please help..
There is no need to use sp tools in recovery mode just remove the battery and run sp tools then connect you're phone to pc

Hi... U don't need to have your phone switched on when you are flashing stock rom with sp flash tools.. You even have to remove the battery.. Search the forum for full steps.. Also, canvas hd does not have a bootloader mode as it is a mediatek device....

Make sure the ADB & Fastboot drivers are installed properly on your computer.
