With TWRP piping, get backup and then restore to another?

When you make a backup, try to make only the folder of the systems and the date and on the other to restore them to have no disturbance. Just save the backup path on the device on which you raise, that is, put there where he lay on the device with Russian firmware.

P.S. All actions you perform at your own risk.

I put myself using Framaroot, though after updating the system (firmware) you need to put the root on a new one, and everything works with a bang.

Actual firmware 322 - Okirpitsya deviss. Solution - After loading 322, you need to put the preloader_huaqin82_wet_e_jb5.bin from 317 releases. After downloading the phone, up to 323 releases through the standard update menu. Shil through sp_flash_tool_v5.1424.00. Menu Russian without glitches. Playimarket, set - everything is correct.

Creating and installing a custom CWM Recovery on the basis of the original boot from your phone

An example of installing a full-fledged CWM Recovery on the example of Lenovo A680 (1 GB RAM) European assembly.I warn all the actions that you will produce, you do at your own risk and I am not responsible for this.Personally, my phone everything turned out. Below I will describe those actions that I produced. Immediately make a reservation, perhaps this is important, I already had ROOT (I did them using a mobile applicationFramaroot (Post # 21218632)Also already installedВ® BusyBox

And so start:

1. Installed on the PC program Mobile Assistant 1.4.1.10038 It also goes and drivers for Lenovo A680. (Note: If you have already installed AdB drivers, Mobile Assistant can not be installed)

2.
On the phone launched the Mobile Assistant application (it was already preset in my native firmware), when you start, the application will propose to enable USB debugging, be sure to turn on. Click to configure and put a tick near USB debugging. (Note: Either turn on USB debugging in any other way available to you)

3. Download software MTK Droid Tools Unpacked the archive in the root of the D disc on the PC (you can at least in C, E, etc.), it is just desirable that the path to the folder with the program is shorter and launched the mtkdroidtools.exe file. If you are all done correctly, the program will display the phone data and it means that the connection to the phone is executed.

4. If the indicator is at the bottom green but not yellow I immediately go to step 5. If yellow, we get root shell, you need to click the root button.

If the indicator did not become green and an error message appeared, it means that В® BusyBox . It can be installed as an application from the market or links to this instruction.

5. Making a CWM based Boot from the phone. I recommend to make a copy of the phone data before this by clicking the button. Backup (See pictures below). Choose Use boot from phone press the button Recovery and Boot then in the appeared window and wait for the end of the process.

P.S. If you refuse to automatically prepare CWM, it will be prompted to select Recovery from a similar phone.

7. After successfully installing CWM, it will be prompted to reboot in Recovery mode to see it. Be sure to press yes.

8. Actually the result. In the future, for those who do not know. In order to go to CWM Recovery, you must climb the key on the key Volume Up + Power Button . After the phone sucks without releasing the volume buttons, release the power key and wait 3-5 seconds.

Then I also threw myself for a complete set at the root of the phone map, Aroma File Manager 1.8 archive (so that you can delete / move files through CWM). I tried version 1.91, but it does not work on it when you click on the screen, because 1.8. If anyone needs an archive and instructions to make under the spoiler.
Archive and Installation Instructions Aroma File Manager
Fur in the root of an internal or external memory card (depending on which the main memory is specified in the phone settings). Boot in CWM, select Install Zip from SDCard, specify the archive (choose zip from sdcard) aromafilemanager_v1.80_ru.zip, after starting the application to enter the settings to select the Russian language, other settings and recommend choosing partition mounts at startup. In the future, if you need a file manager with under CWM, just hijacking it as I described above, while all the settings made on the new one should not be done.
Attached fileAromafilemanager_v1.80_ru.zip.(2.41 MB)

I all have spent 2 hours of my precious time on this instruction, so that gratitude is welcome: thank_you:
