MediaTek 8163 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I hava a china made no-name tablet with SoC mt8163 and NO recovery.
There is no help out there (that I can find) about porting a TWRP or CWM for the 81xx chipset.
Does anyone know if easy magic will work?
By what I have been reading I can use my boot.img to create a recovery.img and then
dd it to mmcblk0p9 (my recovery block device).
Any help would sure be appreciated.
Oh, I'm running Linux and don't have Windows. Is there a replacement to easy magic for linux?
Thanks
TT

Can you contact me ASAP please

Allwinner A13 and CWM

Cannot post in dev-forum. Please seed to [ROM] CyanogenMod 10 for Allwinner a13 [08/28/13]
on A13 allwinner CWM is not working.
Now let me explain why.
CWM is used to backup only kernel (boot.img), recovery and system.tgz+data.tgz(ROM+user data) but CWM is not backing up bootloader (bootloader.img).
Now why the heck i need bootloader to be backup on A13 tablet and on my SGS2 not ???
- SGS2 have same components on all phones TS/camera/gsensor/gps/fm and this is why he use a single bootloader that don't need to be changed/backup/restore.
- A13 are different even from same manufacturer, you don't find same TS/camera/gsensor/gps/fm on same lot of tablets so you will need a new bootloader for every lot if you use today one TS next month another TS.
I'm not against CWM, i use everyday for my android devices but not on A13 because have no effect.
I hope all people understand now why they can't use CWM on A13 tablets or maybe someone can make a special CWM for A13 but with support for backup/restore bootloader too.

Making a ROM dump from an Allwinner A31 tablet?

Some of my buds at Techknow suggested that it should be similar to backing up an A13 ROM, but is that true or do I need to use a different tool to copy it off my tab?
Sorry for the bump, but anyone?
I would like to know myself but I have an allwinner a33 tablet..... were you able to put a CWM Recovery on it? because i was debating on doing that with my tablet

Did you ever get this work? I notice your post is quite old now.
There is a risk of bootloop by patching your boot img this way on these devices. Best to wait and see because you patch boot and flash and brick the device. Your screwed

Note that before you can install a Custom ROM you need to install a Custom Recovery ( e.g. TWRP ) matching your device. If you can't find the latter , you may consider to compile TWRP at your own.
