Just as I was about start a new thread asking for help rooting this damn thing after hours of frustration, the search for similar threads option in the title box sent me here. Man I can't thank you enough! mulțumesc! :good:
Who knew a random Chinese rooting app would succeed where just about everything else failed. Installed it, rebooted, installed SuperSU...victory. Again thanks a bunch.
Oh btw like the OP mentioned, any idea which CWM works for this phone and a flash tool to get the job done? This phone doesn't seem to have proper drivers like the ones say Sony PC Companion would install which gets Device Manager to recognize the phone as say "Micromax A092" or something like that and not just as Android ADB Interface under Android Devices. This might be the reason why adb/fastboot doesn't detect the phone when connected in fastboot mode. Any further help truly appreciated too.
PS: OP/second poster, if you are still looking for a way to root your phones, there's a English version of Vroot to simplify things further..not that the Chinese version was much trouble to begin with. You are probably gonna end up installing SuperSU afterwards anyways. Please update this thread if you find a CWM compatible with this phone and a tool to proceed with the flashing.

Tried all things but no success
I used many softwares like oneclickroot, unlockroot. Unlockroot pro but it still not rooted then i try manual rooting with adb but any exploit and any file not pushing to data/local/tmp it gives an error read only file system pls help

I'm glad I could help ! On my phone debug mode enabled , without battery , hold Volume Down and then insert USB cable enters in fastboot mode ! For flasing original software micromax a092 use a " 8x10_fastboot_all_images.bat " file whitch looks like this : @ECHO off
adb reboot bootloader
echo for not erase modemst1 and modest2
rem fastboot flash partition gpt_both0.bin
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn

Dude read my previous post will you? It was meant for you. Use Vroot. Its what worked for diaconu.silviu and its what's rooted my A092. If the Chinese version is a tad confusing, just download the English version and get rooting.

Hey man thanks again for the info. I'll look into it and get back to you if I don't understand something.
Wait...hang one...you need to remove the battery to get into fastboot mode?? How's the phone to boot up w/o a battery?
Anyhoo the method mentioned to get my phone into fastboot mode is to press the Volume Down key + the Power button for a while till the Micromax logo pops up and then connect via USB. It just sits there displaying the logo looking like the phone is hung but its apparently supposed to be in fastboot mode.
But you seem my problem is that while the phone is supposedly in fastboot mode, when I open up a command prompt in the adb/fastboot folder and type : fastboot devices, it doesn't detect anything. The phone does show up under Android Devices in Device Manager but fastboot ain't recognizing it.
Does your phone show up in Device Manager as anything other than an Android ADB Interface? Like say your phone model no. or something else. I get the feeling its not being recognized because there are no proper drivers for it.
Also what's the amount of RAM on your phone? 512mb or 1GB? Thanks again man :good:

Unfortunately for me ...only 512MB ! Here is how Device Manager see my phone (debug + charging mode only ) .
-With battery : Vol UP +Power button = standard recovery
-Without battery : Vol Down + Insert USB cable = fastboot mode ( logo Allview on screen...nothing else )

Only after i installed moborobo (i don't know why ) i could get a reply from adb devices command (of course android sdk installed ) and i did a phone partition backup !
I am just a newbie in this android stuff ! all that I have achieved is due XDA forum readings ...a lot of reading ! The next step for me is to find a way to CWM

You may use an application called Framaroot which is used to root most of the phones. I don't whether it will root your phone or not, but I successfully rooted 20 phones using it, including->
Micromax A116
Galaxy Tab 2
Galaxy Note 10.1
Galaxy Grand
Galaxy Star Pro
Galaxy Note
Galaxy Note 2
Galaxy Grand 2
& many more...

Aaah I think you might have the equivalent of a Micromax Unite Engage A091. Its basically the same phone with half the RAM and memory. Rest of the specs are just about the same. Tell me are you running Jelly Bean 4.3 or Kit Kat 4.4 cause the A091 ships out here with a Kit Kat OS. Maybe that could clear some doubts.
Recovery mode is the same as yours i.e Vol UP + Power Button but I don't understand your description of getting into fastboot mode. How on earth will you get to the logo screen/fastboot if there's no battery in your phone? Still went ahead and tried it...doesn't work for me. The only way I can get into fastboot mode is by pressing the Volume Down + Power buttons and yes like you said it sits at the Micromoax/Allview logo screen but it certainly doesn't show up as Android Composite ADB Interface like in the image you posted...just Android ADB Interface.
Think i'll give this Moborobo a try...maybe it will help me out too.
Not a total newbie as I have rooted/unlocked/flashed/customized a X10 mini pro and a Xperia M but there's just little to no info about this particular phone that I hit a dead end with the rooting process till I happened upon your post and now I have to find a workaround for this fastboot problem. Yeah done a lot...a lot of reading (my bookmarks seem never ending ) on this great site plus many others.
About your CWM installation, why don't you download & install ROM Manager.apk and use that download and install the CWM compatible with your phone? There's no net connection on my phone yet and I haven't got around to reverse tethering my phone so I can use my broadband connection on it so I can't confirm but if I get it done before you, I'll let you know.

I tried every and I do mean every version of Framaroot...no dice. The Gandalf exploit that's need to root Qualcomm powered devices just refused to show up for some reason and the strange thing is that 24 hours ago, I had used it (version 1.6.1 I think it was) to root an Xperia M but no matter which version I installed on the A092, all it displayed was the Aragorn exploit which I believe is what is required to root Samsung phones. Also doesn't the Micromax A116 use a MediaTek processor? If I was doing something wrong, do let me know so I can avoid circumvent this situation in the future.

Which version did you use? The Chinese or English one? Because the Chinese one seems to be a newer version if I am not mistaken. I feel your frustration man, I spent an entire night trying to root the damn thing and Vroot was the only thing that worked for me. What operating system are you running? Have you manually installed the Google USB/Micromax drivers?

Sorry man...nothing yet. I have been at it for a couple of days but no luck so far. ROM Manager says there's no supported version of CWM and since I haven't been able to get this thing detected in fastboot mode, flashing via command prompt is out of the question. Hope someone else can come to out aid with a working solution. Will update this thread if I manage to flash it.

If you are telling me even Vroot didn't work for you, then I am afraid I might be out of suggestions. Did you try Kinguser which worked for the other guy?
Anyhoo unless you tell me exactly what's going wrong for you with Vroot, there's only so much troubleshooting I can do for you. You say its not working for you but you fail to mention which step of the rooting procedure in halting your progress. Basic but essential questions -
Have you switched on USB Debugging mode?
Is Vroot detecting your phone?
Did you follow the link in diaconu.silviu's post, the 3rd post in this thread and follow the exact steps given in that link? Because that's what worked for me.
Also you still haven't answered my question asking you whether you have installed USB drivers or which operating system you are running on your PC. If you are on Win 8, you need to disable driver signature to be able to install the drivers necessary for rooting. Follow this procedure -
https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorial...abling-signed-driver-enforcement-on-windows-8
After that take a look at this tutorial for driver installation and do exactly what it says in case you haven't done it - http://visualgdb.com/tutorials/android/usbdebug/manualinstall.php
Give more information to people regarding your situation next time...posting a couple of lines saying this app or that ain't working your you isn't gonna help me or anyone else help you.
