Finally I have ported Clockworkmod recovery for our little beast, “Spice MI-495”. So here is the steps to flash this.
1) First root you phone by this method.
2) Download “MobileUncletools” from Playstore.
3) Just place this recovery in your sd card.
4) Open Mobileuncletools and give root permissions, now click on recovery update.
It will automatically detect the new recovery and install it..have fun Guys.

if you can please tell me the full procedure in details as i never rooted any phones. THanks. It would be very helpful.
http:/techass.wordpress.com/2013/01/31/root-your-spice-steller-virtuoso-mi-495/
Procedure to root, if you still dont understand,
1) Connect your phone as usb mass storage and install the usb drivers present in internal memory.
2) then disconnect the phone and Go to phone settings>Developers options and turn on USB debugging On
3) Now connect the phone but this time choose connect as media device option from usb device options.
4) download the tool mentioned in that post and just select root..
Thanks very much.
Nice job 🙂
i got clockwork mode and now
awaiting for new tips like best custom rom overclock cpu,ram
hope u will look forward to it and also provide full guide the way u have done so far….
:D:p:>;)
Bro I am working hard for creating a custom rom for this device. So I will keep you updated. Dont worry.
Well i tink we can use galaxy nexus rom on our spice mi-495
as they both look like same since they both got same type of touch buttons
i hope that it may help you
and plzz tell me that should i try to flash the nexus rom
nope dont do that, if it has onscren button that doesnt mean their rom will work on ours…Micromax A90s is almost same except the Resolution. I have learnt to cook the rom but still editing and using tweaks ll take time. so hope for a good rom..and till then take a backup by this recovery it will help you if you soft bricked the phone…
Okk then i will not use the google nexus rom
i am waiting for ur guide…..
Hope u may be able to produce something wow like cyangogen mod
I am gonna try to port Lewa OS for our phone as I am on slow connection, I still havent downloaded thst yet, but in 2-3 days i will download the base rom and start working on it, and Cyanogen is hard to Compile for us because of dual sim and other things…lets hope for good.
Well bro i saw the lewa os it is same like original rom wht we hve
i dont know the difference but i think you shall try something else coz
by using lewa i think we wont enjoy it…
so hope u will try to port something new and interesting
the problem is that no other rom support dual sim and cyanogen is first need to compile on linux 64 bit that i dont have
bro can u provide help me or provide me how to modify cyanogen mod coz i have linux and even gve me how u learnt all this
Hope i may provide some help…. by using ur help..
Bro i am also not a developer, i googled alot..
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789190
try this cyangen compiler. i too dont have more knowledge but you can get help in xda forums. about rom building..good Luck
.
DId you guys do have the same problem as mine. Does your phone to get heats up when playing games for about 30 mints. Please let me know what to do.
Is This problem causing any restarts or something else???
No. But we can feel the heat.. did you also face the heating issues.
nope I dint face it yet, i hope any other user can comment or clear if anybody have the same problem.
uninstall apps like facebook and Gmail.
it would get fixed
Does FB or Gmail causing Heat issue Akshay?
yes its common in alll androids
actually using GB and Gmail consumes to much of memory and it being a default app for Spice Mi495 it makes ur device heat up
Actually because of its small and compact size, but you can use root explorer to delete Gmail
Let me if i can do anything about it. Other than that the phone is really working fine, it also plays HD videos. and games, that i didn’t expect, really good. Even i compare to with my friend S2 its same or i say better than S2. So i am very happy.. Thanks dude for your reviews and rooting details.
well i have not yet played any games but will gve u details after some time..
I rooted my mi 495 n deleted the browser n youtube app, now can’t open google play and an error sayin process.gapps.com stopped pops up whenever I restart, any idea on how to fix it?
Please always backup your Stock rom by the Procedure mentioned on this blog. and Dont worry I will post the actual Apps at night. Just copy and paste them by Root browser.
cleared dalvik cache and flashed gapps again. now all working fine except that -error process.com.google.gapps.com has stopped- is back
Settings-
>Apps->running>, see if the gapps is not stopped
please do that soon, thanks, and do give a link to download the root browser
http://mediafire.com/?2mmkb5oi2mcjd5e
Actually i was running low on my data plan, but dont worry i will surely do 2mrw…
Stock browser link
http://db.tt/Hw4KcXSH
now I do nt understand what you mean by copy and paste them. where do I paste it ?
also I had tried to install back both the youtube and the browser back but still can’t use the google play and the error is still showing
i expected it..because even if you deleted these things, the rom will work fine. try to remember what file you have deleted?
I remember deleting only the browser n youtube using titanium
latest news, I flashed gapps and no more errors even without browser n youtube but google play not accessible yet
now I can update my google play but still can’t open it
also found out I cannot use gmail anymore after flashing with gapps
chk this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846318
I think I’ll hav to bear wit the error. have tried all I read on net. atleast the google play is working now
thanks to the cwm recovery
I dont have Fast internet connection Mate…otherwise i would have post the whole rom for you.
I will try to upload the rom.:-) til then Have fun modding.
please do it if and when you can. found out coundnt download from the store again

Problem is slow internet connection, but I will try…

It cant be done untill Jellybean boot.img is provided for this fone…Micromax A110 got it because there are many identical A110 fones outside India too so they released JB for them…Lets hope…May be Spice will do some miracle.
Spice give JB update to Pinnacle…..hope they will give to Virtuosos as well.

I know bro, but its exam time, so everyone is busy..after that only we can work..dont worry we will surely do it.
I guess it will take time for some developer to come up with a rom for spice mi-495. Until then enjoy your ice-cream sandwich guys. If you are that desperate to try something,flash a mod. There’re many of ’em available. I shall come up with a blog on Flashing An equaliser mod shortly so stay tunes to Techass.

WHERE ARE U BRO JALDI BATAO NAA ??????????????????
Hi surjit…i got to know that your display screen got broke…
hw much the service centre is charging to you??? in cost…???
and how much time they have told you??
Yeah Bro, They charged me 2000rs for the Touch screen. Yet they told me that the original price is 2650rs. But we are giving you discount.
And I gave it in a service center Gurgaon. They took one month to give it back. Because they told there is shortage of the touchscreens. But One of the Guy got his touch screen replaced in 2 days. But I was not that lucky.
A whole post on my experience on this is coming soon.
