  STEP 0: CHECK DEVICE MODEL NO.

To make sure your device is eligible with this, you must first confirm its model no. in ‘About device’ option under Settings.Another way to confirm model no. is by looking for it on the packaging box of your device. It must be Q1100!

  STEP 1: BACKUP YOUR DEVICE

  STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE

Important Note: Backup important files stored on internal SD card of your device, so that in case a situation arises requiring you to do a factory reset after flashing the kernel file, which might delete internal sd card too, your files will remain safe on PC.

  1. Prepare your phone:
    • Enable developer options: Go to your phone’s Settings » select About phone » Scroll to the bottom and tap on “Build number” seven times to enable developer options.
    • Enable USB Debugging: Open phone’s Settings » select Developer options » Tick the “USB debugging” check-box (under Debugging section).
  2. Connect your phone to PC with a USB cable and if a pop-up screen shows up on phone asking you to Allow USB debugging for the computer, make sure you tick the checkbox and tap OK.Authorize-computer-for-USB-Debugging
  3. Extract the installer file one-click-recovery-installer.zip (using 7-zip free software, preferably). You’ll get the following files:
    • one-click-recovery-installer.bat
    • adb.exe
    • adb-linux
    • adb-mac
    • AdbWinApi.dll
    • AdbWinUsbApi.dll
    • fastboot.exe
    • fastboot-linux
    • fastboot-mac
      └ The only file that matters for you is one-click-recovery-installer.bat, you can ignore others (but DON’T delete any).
  4. [!Important] Rename the the TWRP recovery image file you downloaded above from Q1100-twrp-recovery.img → TO → recovery.img
  5. Paste the recovery.img file to the folder where you extracted the files in the Step 3.
    └ Both the one-click-recovery-installer.bat file and recovery.img file should be in the same folder along with all the other files we got in Step 3.
  6. Double-click/Run the ‘one-click-recovery-installer.bat’ file and follow the simple on-screen instructions like ‘Press any key to continue..’ to install TWRP recovery on your Xolo Q1100.
    └ Note: In case the script gets stuck on < waiting for device > (see image below) for more than a minute or so, then it means you don’t have proper drivers installed on your computer for your Xolo Q1100. Follow the drivers installation guide provided above for troubleshooting driver and other connectivity issues.
