How to flash the cwm recovery and root the THL T6S

DISCLAIMER: DO this at your own risk. Using incorrect scatter file, or incorrect CWM/Carliv can brick your phone. I won’t be responsible or liable if anything bad happened to your android device.

What’s you need to have.

• USB Cable & PC
• SP Flash Tool software ver 3.1304
• ADB VCOM Drivers
• Scatter file for the THL T6S
• CWM recovery img for the THL T6S (rename it to recovery.img after you had download it)
• UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99.zip or newer version of it (copy it to the phone's internal memory)

The SOP aka instructions

1. Download all files above and install the drivers.
2. Download, extract and run SP Flash Tool.
3. Click scatter loading on right side of SP Flash Tool and browse to where the scatter file is.
4. Uncheck all the boxes except for recovery.
5. Click the recovery line and browse to where the downloaded CWM is stored.
6. Click download at the top of SP Flash Tool.
7. A warning will pop up letting you know that not all items are selected. Click OK.
8. Remove the battery from the phone. If you attached the battery, SP Flash Tool will not be able to detect the THL T6S.
9. Connect the THL T6S to PC via USB – At this point, you will see the preloader  at the bottom of the SP Flash Tool is communicating with the PC. The bar at the bottom of SP Flash Tool will start to move indicating that the file is being transferred. At the end of the flash process, you will see a green circle indicating that the flash process had finished successfully.
10. Disconnect the USB cable from the phone and Put the battery back into the phone.
11. Boot into cwm recovery by holding vol up + power button for a few seconds. 
12. You will see a boot selection menu. Press the vol up button navigate to the Recovery Mode option.
13. Press the vol down button to enter the newly flashed cwm recovery. Take note that the cwm will be upside down. Navigate through the options by using the vol up & vol down button.
14. Select Install Zip From SD and then select the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99.zip.
15. Confirm the installation and then reboot the phone.

* For my friends from htcmania who are having problem streaming youtube videos, i would suggest for you to go to advance wifi setting and turn off WiFi optimization. See if that will help.

Carliv Recovery for the THL T6S

I was a bit worried with the cwm recovery that I had created a few days ago. Its because the recovery is a cwm v5+. As far as I know, kitkat doesnt work with v5+. I need  cwm v6+.

And I stumble to Carliv's thread on the XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759981). So, I did as the instructions there and walla.. a cwm 6+ recovery. You can grab it here.

As you can see, it's still upside down.. :). Well, does it work? Creating backup - yes. Restoring a backup - not tested yet.

To finish off, some shots of the 2 touch (good enough for a 4 yrs old) ips screen.

Good night.

Cwm recovery image for the THS T6S

Just a quick update at this early morning (almost 3am to be exact).

To my russian comrades, sorry that I had forgotten to mention about the red charging LED. And about the 2 touch thing and 10fps video shooting, I'll find a way to test those tomorrow or on Sunday. :)

Antutu score (on stock unrooted rom).Good enough for a 4 years old I guess.

I had created an entry on how to root and install the cwm here.

Im out of here. Leave a comment if u have anything to inquire.
