3)
Code:
MTK Preloader USB VCom Driver (Search on google, there are many)

Now Procedure for rooting MT6582M based Micromax Canvas Fire 2 A104:-
a) Download SP Flash tool and also download the recovery utility.

b) Extract both somewhere on your pc but not out side "C/" drive.

c) Open Flash tool and click on scatter loading.

"First of all a big THANKS to all my dev brothers who ported 4.2 to MT6577. You guys genuinely has made a history in MediaTek Device forums."

A Big Thanks to Master @yuweng, for his awesome services and threads for mediatek. Its been a light of guidance for devs.

A Special Thanks to Master @phillz, for devoting time and creating recovery modules for Meditek Devices. The Phillz recovery has been the most famous and wonderful custom recovery.

Special Thanks to "Micromax" for making so many devices with same specs but different boots and all.:p:p

Special Thanks to XDA & Droid-Devz for giving me platforms for presenting my works and XDA been my school where I learned Android.

Special Thanks to my wife for bearing my non-sense jokes and being my partner in everything I do or will do.

Special Thanks to all those brothers who trusted me and still using my MODs and my ROMs.

Brother,
First thing first that please don't quote the whole OP, its very long and consume much space. Now brother I don't know that its working for A093 or not as I don't have the device and now I have also sold the A104. Try it but before trying download the whole stock firmware of A093, so that if it fails you can get back to its original position.

Regards
BOND

Sir,
I will wait for your ROM, Still using Neat ROM on my S2. Will wait even longer if its going to be a series of Neat ROM for Micromax A104.

Hi man,
I did the whole procedure properly and the top half of my phone screen is inverted.. Not the display, but the touch only.. I must touch the center of the screen to pull down the status bar.. (Know what I mean?) I can't seem to fix the issue.. I tried flashing stock recovery.img, didn't work. Tried stock rom, didn't work. Did a full wipe too.. I'm not blaming you, I just need your help.. Any idea why that happened or how to fix it?

I got the same issue. Looks like the provided boot.img wasnt meant for the device we have. I am also trying to fix this. Will update if it gets fixed.

Hey, Just in case you are still having that issue. I figured out the cause. Its because of the boot.img we flashed. The new hardware components used in our phones are not compatible with the old boot.img we flashed, which is supposed to be of earlier Firmware version. Please download the package below and flash it.

http://clicknupload.com/xdpt8n2w3oho

I assume that you must had already flashed the complete old firmware, you need to flash this new firmware. I havnt flashed old FW so just flashed the new boot.img of this package and the problem is solved.

This is a request to the thread owner to please mention this in OP that the users with V8.1 (can be checked in Settings >> About Phone >> Build Number) should uncheck boot while flashing, however it will cause same inverted touch issue in recovery but it can be managed with the volume buttons anyways.

Brothers,
When I bought this device then I downloaded it and made the rooting n recovery guide after testing it for three times on my device. If later the oem has changed anything in firmware then I'm sorry but I cannot update it as now I don't have this device anymore. If you want recovery for this device then please uploaded your boot.img from latest firmware and I'll make a recovery for you but after 7 days from now. currently busy in funeral of my Grandma.

Thanks & Regards

Hello brother, something's wrong with my phone (mmx a104). After flashing custom recovery (twrp, philz) when I boot into recovery, touchscreen starts behaving abnormal. It got inverted horizontally and vertically. And it doesn't touch the place where I touch the screen.
Any solution dude.
