DeleteHow to get a recovery for a non supported Device ?
ReplyDeleteWhat device....??
DeleteXolo Era 4K MT6735
ReplyDeleteThe 'Porting Methods' like MTK Droid Tools , Easy One Touch Recovery methods were for MT65XX Series only.
ReplyDeleteThose methods donot work on newer MT Series like MT67XX.
I am not saying there wont be a method for newer MT67XX. There would be ofcorse. There are Custom recoveries for other MT6735 devices. But not for my one yet. Because my device is not so popular.
I have tried Manual Porting as well where you take a recovery from the same chipset and screen resolution device and copy and replace some specific files and repack recovery.
I done it. I flashed it. But the phone dont boot it. It reboots back , may be it dont accept it.
I have asked help on xda-developers as well , but nobody has replied. Over a month has passed.
Thankfully Yomi Tech , a kind hearted , very hardworking guy has replied. Now i have some hope. That i will get a custom recovery for my phone (Xolo Era 4K, MT6735, 1280x720, LP 5.1) are its specs.
I need cwm for Xperia E4 E2115 help me please :'(
