Here are the steps I followed to install 518N ROM over original chinese ROM :
I did it 3 times since because the first two times I deleted too much system apps with Titanium Backup (almost every Infocus app in fact) LoL
1. Unlock OEM from Developer menu
2. Activate USB debugging (I had to insert a SIM card, without it this option was disabled)
3. Install
MediaTek VCOM USB Drivers (for Windows 8, Windows 8.1 in my case)
4. Power off phone
5. Install 518N ROM with SP Flash Tool :
- Unzip
V5.18N_A03_00WW-Signed(NCC).zip
- Start SP Flash Tool
- if phone is plugged to PC USB port, unplug it
- From SP Flash Tool, select scatter file from unzipped 518N ROM
ZM1-0-518N-MT6753_Android_scatter.txt
- Click Download
- Now plug your phone and wait until flash is complete
- Boot your phone and unlock Bootloader + activate USB debugging again (as your ROM has been flashed)
6. Use the method than step 5 to flash
Recovery Infocus M560 twrp 3.0.0.0 provided by big_grammy
7. Boot your phone and ensure Bootloader and USB debugging are still activated
8. Reboot to TWRP recovery using one of the following method :
- the power + volume buttons technique (power off, connect phone to power supply with usb cable and after 2 seconds, push power plus vol + until you see logo)
-
Easier : install Android Studio + SDK. Plug phone to USB (USB debugging must be enabled), a popup should appear on phone, say yes. Then open command prompt and type :
Code:
cd C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Android\sdk1
adb reboot recovery
9. Install
SuperSU-v2.65 from TWRP (copy zip to microSD card first)
10. Reboot phone, now you should find
#SuperSU app installed
11. Now you can install Titanum backup and remove Pandora's Box, MoreLocale2... etc.
Enjoy !
