How to install Galaxy S4 similar custom ROM on MMX A110 Canvas 2


Micromax A110 Canvas 2 which is one of the most successful Canvas phablet can now be interfaced with Galaxy S4 similar UI through a custom ROM update. This ROM will add Galaxy S4 similar features in your Canvas 2. In short you will be able to test Galaxy S4 environment on your Canvas 2 screen with almost very similar options.

Everyone knows the price gap that exists between two brands. One side, MMX is known for entry level/medium level smartphones whereas on the other side Samsung is famous for high budget phones/machines.

But now you can get the S4 styled interface on your entry level phone (Canvas 2). One very essential thing you need is a rooted A110. It can be flashed on rooted phones only. So I you have not rooted your Canvas 2 then please root it prior to this update. But please note that rooting will void your warranty and if you fail somewhere in main tutorial then it can even damage your phone completely.

How to install Galaxy S4 similar ROM on MMX Canvas 2
I will advise you to go through these pre-requisites completely. This step is basically needed to improve the security zone. After this you can follow this tutorial:
1. Download the ROM file to your computer.
2. Place this file in your Canvas2 external memory card.
3. Now boot to recovery mode (see instruction after these steps) and choose wipe data, dalvik cache options.
4. Now choose install updates from sd card option and select the ROM file.

Now wait for 3-4 minutes till flashing gets completed.

**How to boot to recovery:
Switch OFF your Canvas 2 and then switch it ON while pressing and holding Vol. Up key.
