when I click on firmware upgrade and then on download and connected my switched off A300 to PC nothing is happening. I have waited for ages but the download percentage bar in yellow is not even appearing. Is this means download not starting? I have checked my net connection. it is working fine. Please help.
Abhishek Sharma Post author
Hi Soham
Don’t need internet connection in this process and it will take only 5-10 min for whole process. Please tell me
1. did you connect switch off phone?
2. did SP tool detect your phone?
Soham Ganguly
It’s ok. It is solved now. I did a mistake earlier. I connected the switched off phone before pressing download button…that’s why it was not detecting my phone. Now it is installed. Thanks you very much for this update. Many like me are grateful to you.

Abhishek Sharma Post author
Hi Nikhil
Use ADB driver and Switch off your phone and wait for a min then connect your phone to PC.
Tinu Malik
Thanks a lot. ADB drivers can be installed by ADB program. It’s a little troublesome in Windows 8. This ROM is awesome.
– Over 20 GB app can be installed.
– Good Battery Life.
– Audio quality is improved.
– Phone heats up less.
– Less RAM usage.
– All features are working. Camera. WiFi. BT. everything.
– No custom kernel required as it is a factory update.
I rooted using Kingroot.apk. Uninstalled all junk apps and installed greenify. Working great. All high end games are running fine at decent frame rates. Battery lasts for a reasonable time. Battery life is now better than my old Lumia 520. Must have ROM
