[Q] Bricked A310 - Micromax Canvas Nitro A310/A311

hey Bro,
I am afraid my A310 phone is bricked now. I had the android L ROM by pintothakur installed on my phone using TWRP touch recovery (Red) before. Today when i tried to install this Xtremevanilla ROM by the Devilashish on my phone (after clearing cache, delvik cache and system) i selected both zip files vanilla and xposed patch and tried to install but it failed. I dont remember the error . Then i tried once again with only Vanilla zip file this time but it failed again. I think then I made a mistake of restarting the phone (without installing another ROM ) It asked me that my phone didn't seem rooted and if i wanted to install SuperSU . I selected installation of Superuser. And after that the phone restarted but could not get past the micromax logo. I tried pressing Vol down button and power button together to go into recovery mode or pressing Vol+ and power for a fast boot, but notihng worked. and now my phone doesn't go beyond that logo. Is there any chance it happened because of some clash in SuperSu Pro already installed on phone and the one it asked me to install after ROM install failure? And when I connect the phone to desktop it says driver could not be installed and shows a battery charging logo with battery almost showing nil but it doesn't show any charging animation just the static low battery charging logo which remained same even after connecting the phone to desktop for more than 2 hours.
So, is there any way I can get my phone back . Any help from anybody would be really appreciated. And I'm sorry if I'm asking this in a wrong forum. Thanks in advance guys.

I tried installing PDAnet on my system but it failed probably because i could not enable USB debugging on phone. (though as i remember it was enabled when my phone last worked)

Hey, it went well upto last step. Installed drivers and after connecting phone it shows PreLoader USB VCOM(Android) COM3 under ports. Then I configured and started YGDP with CPB file but when I connect the phone, it suddenly disappears from ports list just when the low battery charging logo comes up on phone. And then in YGDP it only continues as Entering download mode..
Dont know what went wrong
I am thinking that I may have installed many drivers from various files I found on net. Though when I tried updating the driver from Ports list today it said I had the up to date driver installed for the device. So, can you please help with possible cause and soultion.. and one funny thing happened (Dont know if it is of any significance) .. once I tried using the CPB file form my pendrive and after starting YGDP it started showing as a FAT32 device and no contents visible. Only when i restarted system it showed the contents as before. Then I copied CPB from USB to a Local drive but still with same problem.. Entering download mode..

Oh, that was by mistake..? i thought you sent that coz a311 and a310 might be having same stock ROM. I tried searching for a310 stock already before posting here but i only found some cpb files on a chinese site. Probably on modaco. Though there were many files 035, 036 n something like that. I dont remember. And trying to download from there was a lil frustrating for me. See if you can make any sense out of that.

I hope it would work. But I dont have boradband internet connectivity for few days. So I'll inform you once I try it as you said now. Though there is one trouble now. Earlier when I tried with A311 ROM it could reach downloading till 98% but then since that didnt work, I guess i messed up with drivers (installed SP drivers, Vcom drivers, PDA usb drivers, coolpad drivers ) trying to find some solution and now when i tried with that A311 ROM, again it is stuck at Entering download mode.. (and I tried this time with all drivers.. uninstalling and updating all since I dont remember which set of drivers exactly worked last time). So, can you please suggest which drivers to go for with Win7 64 bit or I should continue hit n trial?
n I'm really hating bothering you like this and so much Thanks for your time

it is ok!

see a311 can run on a310 roms easily as a310 would obviously is on lower hardware than a311
but a311 has a different architecture that is why it won't flash on you phone
and believe it or not i did not even installed one single software or driver it always worked for me with out it too
just uninstall all the drivers and start flashing with only one specific drivers
if you still need one try these http://www.inforaid.com/micromax-canvas-nitro-a311-pc-suite/ and until you keep pressing thanks i woll continue helping you or anybody else just joking but still hit thanks

After flashing A311 Stock on A311 device is not solving proximity sensor bug only. rest of it everything is working.
I have tired with some sites given u and others.
http://www.needrom.com/wp-content/up...romax-A311.rar ==== Needrom Link
http://www.mediafire.com/download/of...7W_I02.rar==== Mediafire Link.
I believe these two links for Stock A311 so i have flashed these . It shows me Custom id as MICROMAX A311.
I am so confused here and struck.

Hey..
I downloaded this new CPB file and evrything as before.. but as happened last time.. It didn't move beyond Entering download mode..
Then I tried a solution I found in modaco.
I turned phone off, kept Vol buttons pressed and connected to USB and to my surprise phone booted into recovery (TWRP in my case) :laugh::victory: I hadn't expected that
Then as usual i proceeded with wiping n installation from SD card.
Still Thank you so much for your help. Just mentioned these steps as it may help someone in similar condition where phone fails to boot normally.
