- MTKdroidTools.exe
- Spanish.lang
Connect your device to PC and double-click/Run the MTKdroidTools.exe from the folder. Now it will open a dialogue box named MTK Droid Root & Tools which looks something like this:
Your phone information will be displayed on the left side and the bottom yellow indicates that Su is found in the device but root shell not obtained yet.
Now click on Root button to obtain Root shell. Grant permission to SuperSu on Phone if it asks. Now the colour turns Green in the bottom of the tool as shown below:
Now click on root,backup,recovery tab on the tool and select To use boot from phone and click on Recovery and boot button.

Click Yes when it asks To make CWM recovery automatically.
The tool will create the CWM recovery for your phone and a pop-up will appear asking to install created recovery to phone. Click Yes.
