Any custom rom for Micromax Nitro A310 ?????? - Micromax Canvas Nitro A310/A311

I was looking for custom rom for Micromax Nitro A310.

---

Micromax A310 is rebranded Coolpad F1 phone and you can flash any Coolpad F1 custom rom.
There are many forums that cover almost everything related to that phone.
You may start here
For now, there are over 200 custom roms for this phone plus regular official updates (JB and KitKat)
We even flashed stock Micromax A310 rom and Himax Polymer stock rom (Polymer is Indonesian variant of this phone)
Have fun!
Take care, you may loose your IMEI.
Please save your NVRAM / make MTK Droid Tools v2.5.3 backup before trying anything!!!
EDIT: You won't lose IMEI. It was a specific rom that made a problem which was solved by flashing stock Micromax rom
through YGDP Tool
Shaanu reported successful flashing of several custom Coolpad F1 roms:
Guys I found that we can use any coolpad f1 ROM on Micromax nitro a310, by simply flashing it via CWM, without any IMEI issue and other issues.
I didn't tried stock MMX a310 ROM, but I've tried various other ROMs.

There's good news ands bad ones. As always
Some background info:
Coolpad F1 looks like Micromax A310. A forum member find a site with Micromax A310 stock rom.
We tried to flash it through coolpad's flashing tool - YGDP, but it wouldn't go.
Good news:
That stock rom comes in CPB format (Coolpad rom format) and I extracted it with YGDP tool.
There is a file inside the rom - phoneinfo.yl with the following content:
Code:
[VER_Compatibility]
VER = 1.00;
SUM = ;
[PDA_Compatibility]
[COLOR="Red"][B]ProductName = 8297W_I01;[/B][/COLOR]
[PCB_Compatibility]
CheckEnable = 1;
u8HardwareVersionMajor = P0,P1,P2;
u8HardwareVersionAux = ;
u8HardwareRF_NV = ;
[DEV_Compatibility]
CheckEnable = 0;
[EMMC_Compatibility]
CheckEnable = 0;
eMMC_Count = 2 ;
eMMC_CID0 = 1101003030384739320093252FCA70B3;
VersionCheck0 = ">=00" ;
eMMC_CID1 = 1501004D3847314743038E04FBD4503D;
VersionCheck1 = ">=03" ;
Now, phoneinfo.yl content is the same as the one from Coolpad F1 stock rom except for ProductName = code line
Micromax A310 has: ProductName = 8297W_I01;
Coolpad F1 has: ProductName = 8297W;
Few days later, we found out that if you remove _I01 from phoneinfo.yl code line and
from another *.bin file, A310 stock rom can be successfuly flashed on Coolpad F1.
BTW, 8297W is another name for Coolpad F1 WCDMA phone.
Based on identical experience with another Coolpad F1 rebrand, Indonesian Himax polymer phone I can say that
any custom rom for one of these three phones can be flashed on each one of them
Bad news:
I guess that nobody else flashed Coolpad F1 custom rom on Micromax A310, so you would be the first one to try
If you will, please make MTK Droid backup first.
P.S.
EmUI is a very good custom rom and I have it on my Coolpad F1 right now...

Did you tried esf backup ????
There are several esf backup tools in play store.
Take an esf backup on stock rom, then change the rom whatever u want, then restore that esf backup on new rom.
Your imei might be restored

If you have stock backup you can try to restore it with SP Flash Tool
Did you try to flash stock Micromax Nitro rom with YGDP Tool.
If everything else fails, you can ask someone who has Nitro A310 with stock rom to make a
MTK Droid Tool v2.5.3 backup
and send you two nvram files: nvram.bin and userdata_nvram_only.tar
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Flash stock Nitro A310 rom (if you don't have it on your phone now)
Now you make your MTK Droid Tool 2.5.3 backup.
Replace your two NVRAM files with the new ones in your backup.
Start MTK Droid again and click on IMEI/NVRAM button. Restore NVRAM . I think that phone will reboot now.
If you have IMEI now, start
MTK Droid Tool again and replace IMEI numbers with yours.

Well if you are on stock ROM, then I suggest you to download mobile uncle tools from play store and make an efs backup on your external SD card,
After that you can flash any coolpad f1 ROM by CWM, after wiping data, cache, and dalvik cache.
I have flashed Emotion UI 2.3 rom , colorOS and fun touch ROMs on my Nitro a310 without any problem.
In case u face your lost IMEI problem again, u simply download mobile uncle tools on new ROM, and restore that efs backup you took earlier.
Restoring efs worked, at least for me

I had tried all the possibilities ...My concern was trying to flash MIUI ROM made for TD-SCDMA due to which my baseband was erased.
I succeeded at last by combining COOL PAD F1 MIUI ROM with Modem_F1_WCDMA zip file http://4pda.ru/pages/go/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fyadi.sk%2Fd%2FmrddqyOGbTcMs
I Love MIUI ROM :victory:

No dude. Battery problem is not solved by wiping dalvik cache.
I tried various ROMs on this device.
Battery backup on color OS ROM is much better.
I didn't faced any issues regarding IMEI even after trying at least 10-11 roms.
I took backup simply by CWM.

You may lose IMEI by flashing a bad rom. I saw that several times and helped several people.
Best thing is to have your original Micromax rom and to root your phone.
Install MTK Droid Tool 2.5.3 and make backup of your rom.
If you lose IMEI somehow, you will easily return it back with MTK Droid Tool
Nitro A310 stock rom

Mr. Dadok is right, as always
Before installing any ROM, we must have back up of NVRAM and stock ROM.
Also, u must be careful while flashing any other ROM.
