Unlocking bootloader and installing Custom recovery [Sprout4] [Marshmallow 6.0] - Android One (First-Generation) Cross-Device Genera

So i have successfully installed a custom recovery on my phone running Marshmallow and also unlocked the bootloader!
Its quite simple actually!
I am not responsible for any damage you make to your phone!
Steps-
1. Download the zip file from the link and extract it.
2. Install both the drivers and then proceed!(The drivers are universal and work for Windows 98,xp,vista,7,8,8.1,10 but in 8,8.1,10 you might need to turn off the digital signature verification-Make good use of google)
3.After installing the drivers , connect your phone in switched on and remember to turn on usb debugging in the dev options!
4. Open the unlock_bootloader_... and run the .bat file and follow the on screen steps( All the data will be formatted so make a backup beforehand)
5.After doing this you will void your warranty so make sure you know what you are doing!
6. Open the one click installer folder and replace the recovery.img with any recovery that you want.
7. Now again connect your phone in switched on mode and usb debugging on and run the .bat file of recovery installer.. and follow the on screen steps!
8.As soon as the the recovery installation is over do not let teh phone reboot just press the vol up button as the installation process stops and then go to recovery!
9.Boom!! Now you have a phone with unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery installed on marshmallow!!
10.Flash custom Kernels,Boot Animations, Logos and root your phone running marshmallow and brag!

Recovery Kernel?
Hi bro just a quick question did you use the MM kernel in the custom recovery?
On our None AOSP standard Mediatek devices the rom does a Kernel check to ensure both the boot and recovery Kernels are of the same version eg KK boot = KK Recovery LP boot = LP Recovery so I just wondered if the MM Kernel still works in the Philz recovery or are you still using a kernel from a older version of android eg KK or LP.
Hope that makes sense to you :laugh:

How to open the unlock_bootloader ??? There is no such option

how about rooting? what method did you use?

Well i did not make anything that can do that but you'll probably find it in other threads. You can also flash bootloader.using the stock rom file via sp flash tools to relock it just untick everything else but bootloader!

Unlocking bootloader is necessary? Can I not just do it with it locked bootloader?

Yes it does, the tool is also all about it. In the one click recovery intaller folder replace the recovery.img with your twrp(you will have to rename twrp.img file to recovery.img) and follow the steps in the first post in this thread!

@sijav isnt NUT's recovery for locked BL? correct me.

what's differences between BL and UL for you guys?
UL can flash kernel.
BL cannot flash kernel!
what's recovery?
some binary files that should be called before calling and starting system so it's pretty good to start in kernel before trying to start system.
but what if we can't modify the kernel?
yet we can modify the system and put some binary files in stock chargemon (when the phone trying to figure whether goes to offline charging or not) so it starts first in whole system and wait for a key, if pressed just execute the recovery!
so again, can something that specifically build for LB be flashed or run on UB?? my answer is mostly yes.
can something that needs flashing kernel or other things than system and data on LB? my answer is mostly NO
is [NUT] recovery for both ub and lb? yes! if you don't have recovery on kernel. ( or else you have two recovery one in kernel and one in system and 3 seconds delay in each starting nothing else)

Okay. You can try the steps below:
1) Unlock bootloader
2) Flash custom recovery
3) Root your phone
4) Boot into recovery and restore from there
5) Reboot your phone to see if the problem is solved.
If the problem that you were facing is solved then
6) Full unroot you device
7) Reflash stock recovery
8) Relock the bootloader *
Done! And now, you will be able to install the OTA updates .

*If you are not rooted and have stock recovery in your phone already, I don't think locking your bootloader is necessary to install the OTA updates.

No. But you will be able to download the OTA updates but it will not be installed on your phone.
Installing OTA updates require Stock Recovery.
You need to unlock your bootloader and then flash the stock recovery for your phone.

How did you flash custom recovery with locked bootloader???
Sent from my A1 using XDA Free mobile app
Follow the instructions below.
1) Backup all your important data
2) Download the zip file from the attachment and extract it into a folder of your choice
3) Enable USB Debugging on your phone and connect it to your PC via USB cable
4) Open the folder where you extracted the downloaded attachment
5) Run "Unlock Bootloader.bat" file. Follow the on-screen instructions. This will unlock your bootloader and will factory reset your phone. Your phone will now reboot automatically.
6) Go to Settings >> About Phone >> Tap on Build Number 10 times >> Go back to Settings >> Developer Mode >> Allow USB Debugging . A pop-up message will appear on your screen asking you to confirm USB Debugging from your PC. Tap on Allow.
7) Now, connect your phone again by enabling USB Debugging mode.
8) Run "Recovery Installer.bat" from the extracted folder. Now, your phone has stock recovery (for Micromax Canvas A1). Your phone will now reboot automatically.
9) Again, Run "Lock Bootloader.bat" file from the extracted folder. This will relock your bootloader.
---------------------
Now, your bootloader is locked and you have stock recovery in your phone. You can confirm this by booting your phone into recovery.
Now, you'll be able to install the OTA Updates.
DONE!
Moreover the official image file here: Android One Stock Recovery.img (KitKat) can be used to flash the stock recovery from fastboot mode or using flashify app in rooted phone.
nope that dosent work

[TUT] How to root your Android One devices (sprout) with Locked Bootloader

Hi guys, today I am going to share this simple tutorial on how to root without unlocking bootloader of sprout.. Many people asked me how to do so I am here to create a simple tut for everyone..
Requirements
1. Any custom recovery for sprout (I prefer philz http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...e-general/sprout-philz-touch-v6-57-9-t2887574 )
2. Fastboot files (google for minimal fastboot) and fastboot drivers
3. Supersu update zip (http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu)
Proceedure
1. Install fastboot drivers and fastboot files..
2. Rename the custom recovery as "recovery.img"
3. Place the recovery.img within fastboot directory (where the fastboot.exe located)
4. Put supersu.zip in root of your phone's sd card
5. Connect your android one device to pc using usb cable in fastboot mode (switch off phn and press power+vol up and then select fastboot)
6. Use the following fastboot command
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
This command will not flash the recovery, it will just let your phone boot into recovery and it will work on locked bootloader
7. You will get the recovery menu then. Install the previously downloader supersu.zip from external sd card using the recovery menu.
8. Congratulation, You have successfully rooted your android one device without unlocking bootloader...:good:
Here is a video guide created by @thesaurabh7777, u can check it..

2. @Chainfire for supersu.zip
thanks
Thank you. Just what i wanted.
Anyone tried? And how to unroot if needed ?
UPDATE : I tried. It works and works like charm. I have created CWM backup of my stock ROM, rooted device and installed xposed also.
You can always unroot from settings in SuperSu - Which essentially removes itself and su binaries.

Hi, if I root my device this way, just to backup some apps via TB, and not modify the system any other way, are you sure just unrooting will be enough to safely apply the Kitkat to Lollipop OTA?
I've read about this new "verified boot" thing in Lollipop, which essentially means if you modify system partition in any way, even if just to add the SU app/binaries, the OTA will fail (where it obviously didn't use to, before lollipop). I'm not sure if this verified boot thing will apply to the OTA for Kitkat to Lollipop too, or just updates From Lollipop to future versions.
(AP did an article just a couple of weeks back, check it out here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...e-means-update-will-fail-system-modified-way/ )
I have made a backup of Stock ROM before rooting it,so when LOLLIPOP arrives and in case i have changes some system files, i can simply restore the stoock ROM to recieve the updates right???

Observation On Infinix Hot 2 [X510-D5110-Androidone-20151208] on Root

So today I embarked on what seemed to be a fruitless journey as I tried to root the Infinix Hot 2 on the latest build (December Security Patch of course) and I observed the following:
1. Flashing TWRP Recovery that was previously made for this device doesn't Flash. SP/Infinix Flash Tool flashes the recovery quite alright but booting to recovery with ADB afterwards gives a "No command" screen.
2. Kingroot (PC & Mobile) can't root this device as of yet :'(
3. I think the bootloader can be unlocked using the Android One Toolkit that was created for 1st Gen Android One devices. Reason being the fact it booted to fastboot and prompted me with the option to accept bootloader unlock or not.
Should you come come successful with flashing recovery or rooting this latest build, please comment your method. Thank you...

recovery partition is protected, it will get back to stock recovery if you boot the system. so you really need to boot recovery as the first thing you do after flashing.
which because of the similar bug we can't unlock our bootloader, is impossible to do with default setting. flash your lk partition with this:

[GUIDE] Marshmallow Root Guide for ZE500KL

ATTENTION!
You MUST read all the guide BEFORE doing it, if you do it without reading all of it first you may ends up bricking your phone!
Prerequisites:
Asus ZE500KL (may work on ZE500KG, but haven't tested, do it on your own risk) on Marshmallow, NOT LOLLIPOP!
Also, it must have fully booted AT LEAST one time, otherwise, you'll soft-brick it.
If your phone is not on Marshmallow, you can use THIS guide instead​Download and put the unlocker zip file and the SuperSu zip file in the phone
How To:
1 - Install adb and fastboot driver (follow THIS guide)
Now you can connect the phone to your computer​2 - Reboot in fastboot mode with one of the following method:
a -Volume Up while booting up​b -With adb, after enabling USB debugging in developer settings, using:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Now that you are in bootloader, you have to boot in TWRP,
download THIS recovery (is the twrp one) and boot in to it, using this command:
IMPORTANT: DON'T FLASH IT OR YOU WILL GET BOOTLOOP!!!
Code:
fastboot boot TWRP-x-x-x-x.img
(Obviusly the recovery name must be the one you downloaded)
IMPORTANT: DON'T FLASH IT OR YOU WILL GET BOOTLOOP!!!
It should automaticaly enter in recovery.
Now you MUST flash FIRST ZE500KL_BootloaderUnlock.zip, otherwise you'll brick your phone
Btw, the recovery will mount your phone's memory, so you can put now the files in the phone, if you forgot to do it before​
AFTER you installed the unlocker zip, you can install the SuperSu zip
When the install is complete, clear the cache and reboot your phone, now you can enjoy your root!

So.. I'm thinking of buying a ZE500KL and I've been doing some reading on this phone on the forums.. did it really just get unlocked like yesterday? does that mean custom roms from now on?

C:\Users\Clynt\Desktop\Android M>adb reboot bootloader
C:\Users\Clynt\Desktop\Android M>fastboot boot twrp.img
< waiting for device >
Ok I don't know where I get wrong but I got this error.
Img file name is ok because I renamed it.
Drivers were installed already.
Developers mode is enabled already.
Windows 7 64bit
Tried rooting this using lollipop and everything went well.
thanks!
UPDATE: i got it. it has something to do with the drivers.
Without opening the bootloader.
Notice. I have not tried it.

i think isnt permanent, this step is needed to boot into twrp then flashing a unlockBL..
to make permanent.. the command must "fastboot flash recovery twrp_X.X.X.X.img"
but make sure to unlock bootloader first...

Is it me or everytime I reboot the device after rooted, it's going back to unrooted?
Root is a success tho, great job, OP!
Edit: okay, not every reboot, but after several reboots, then it went back unrooted
