If anyone can find out the original name of this device, then maybe we can get CWM for it. Because almost all android devices from Spice are rebranded. So, if you can find out about its clones, maybe we have already have a cwm for it then, in any foreign language forums. I have a Spice Mi 310, and a lot of development on this set occurs on an indonesian forum as the device sells in Indonesia by the name CSL Mi 320.
yeah i need more than two finger's touch since i play piano and use alot of multimedia stuff which require more than two a min of 4 touch
Guess i have to wait for karbonn A24 but im satisfied with it just the multi-touch irritates me

It's of no use to me, still. Btw, Micromax A110 has 5 point multi-touch too.
I am unable to go into recovery mode..I hold vol+ and power button and the recovery icon shows up and nothing else...

once you are in recovery mode
press and hold on vol + button and press power button
do not release vol + button
spice logo will be seen and phone will boot in recovery mode then only u release vol + button
then press home button you will be at default option as i posted pic post #82
use vol + and - button to scroll
and use option button/ power button to execute

Yes, the file structure of the backup is what it should be. And, the size of the backup also seems normal.
Though, in my cwm (I on spice mi 310), there is no folder called blobs. Maybe, that's because you have got a newer version of cwm
P.S. Instead of using print screen to take a screenshot of the full screen, use snipping tool in windows 7 to take a snap of only tthe portion you want to.

backup folder size is 12 mb and blob folder size is 304 mb
nandroid backup generally looks like this on my spice mi 350/lenovo a60
Something I found about blobs. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1952366 and this too: http://www.pocketables.com/2012/07/...at-creates-significantly-smaller-backups.html
It clearly states that the backups are quite smaller. Once you start taking more backups, the blobs directory will grow, while some of the blob files will be shared by all of the backups, thus reducing overall size of all the backups. It's fine, I guess.

Invalid imei is solved just follow below steps
* require root access *
copy file containing IMEI codes MP0B_001 with root explorer
The file containing the IMEI codes (MP0B_001) in Android systems with processor MTK65XX, is in the following location: /data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/MP0B_001
copy it to the Desktop with Windows 2000/XP/7
Place it in a folder created called IMEI in C:\Documentes and Settings\User\ and insert the files imei.exe (which i have uploaded in attachment) and MP0B_001.
Now open a cmd window by typing start -> run -> cmd -> chdir C: \ -> chdir C: \ IMEI
Inside the cmd window, type: imei.exe[space] IMEI1 [space] IMEI2 Example : imei.exe 123456789000 123456789000
This will create a new file called MP0B_001_NEW
delete MP0B_001 file
now rename MP0B_001_NEW to MP0B_001
now connect your mobile and send this file in any folder in your mobile
now open root explorer and copy MP0B_001 ( which we make in computer ) to this location
/data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/MP0B_001
overwrite the file and all done
now restart your mobile and your imei is restored
