How to install Custom Recovery on Lenovo Vibe S1 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I am looking for ways using which i can install CWM or TWRP on Lenovo Vibe S1
Currently the phone i have is not even rooted so i have posted a separate thread for how to root this device.
Lets keep this thread related to discussion on how to install custom recovery.
Any help is appreciated.

I tried porting many recoveries but seems like we've to do something about recovery-from-boot.p first

Use mkdroid tools for root and cwm recovery. mkdroid tools works for any mediatek device if u want twrp go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2798257

[HELP] Stock Recovery of Huawei Ascend Y511-U30

I have installed CWM recovery over my stock recovery. Now I want to revert to stock recovery but I am not able to find appropriate stock recovery for my Huawei Ascend Y511-U30 device. I want to flash stock firmware which I have downloaded from Huawei Russia website but my CWM recovery is not recognizing it and update fails. Any suggestions?
Can anybody help me?

Did you unlocked 'bootloader' and how you rooted your mobile? Will you please share info on both.

I think both bootloader unlocking and device should be rooted to install/flash CWM or relative app/soft. After that, i am sure installing CWM is not a big problem. Search forum for CWM installation, I'm sure you will find solution.

By the way, this post was very old. Now I have resolved the issue after googling. Obviously one must have root privileges to install a custom recovery. Luckily Huawei Bootloader is unlocked so no need to worry about it. I had used FRAMA ROOT apk in order to root my Y511-U30. You can find its thread on XDA. For installing a CWM recovery I used its CWM img file in a Chinese apk called Mobile Uncle Tools. With that aok you can easily install flash CWM recovery and flash custom Roms which are many which you can find over internet.
If anybody needs any help regarding Y511-U30, please send a PM to me.
Regards.

Need custom recovery for Spice MI 514

Hey guys.
Many months ago, I asked a question regarding rooting spice mi 514. I wasnt able to do it earlier. I would like to tell you I have finally done it with kingroot and made a lot of customisations now. I am using the privileges of rooting.
Now I want to install a custom recovery to be able to flash updates or maybe even install a custom rom later.
I looked up twrp and clockworkmod but they dont have my device listed.
I looked up if there was any custom rom available but no.
I tried searching how to make a custom rom for your device and found MTK droid tools and Easy twrp....
But they both cant detect my phone even with usb debugging turned on and even after installing adb drivers.
Please help me. I really want to install a custom rom on my device.

I want to root my device, I tried various rooting softwares including kingroot but failed in each case. so finally decided to change the stock recovery as it is not allowing me to flash the supersu file. As it is Spreadtrum device SC8830 I tried flashing all the 9 recoveries mentioned here in this thread but none worked!! so I have no hope unless and untill I get specific custom recovery to this device.
Thanks in advance.:good:

Custom recovery for Zuum Sirius (Coppel)

It's a phone sold only in mexico it seems, network unlocked, bootloader unlocked, dual sim. Here are the phone specs:
https://ibb.co/gGOTc5
https://ibb.co/eyCoc5
https://ibb.co/k0E1x5
I want to have root acces and a custom recovery obviously, but there is no official custom recovery (TWRP nor CWM), and, for tools like Easy Magic TWRP Installer to work is neccesary to have root acces. I've tried tools like Kingo Root, but it did't work, and most methods to have root in these cases is to flash supersu.zip through twrp or cwm. I've tried to port a recovery for mt6580 using a method like this : https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/guide-twrp-3-0-x-mediatek-devices-t3379681 , flashed it but didn't work and stock recovery is still there. I have a stock rom [URL="https://www.needrom.com/download/zuum-sirius-coppel[/URL], and TWRP's official compilation guide says that I need certain BoardConfig.mk file, which I can't find anywhere in the uncompressed stock recovery. Does somebody knows if yuweng's script for compiling twrp with bbqlinux works without root?
Thanks in advance , help of any kind is welcome
