How to update Micromax canvas 2 A110 with official Jelly Bean V3 - detailed steps
How to update Micromax A110 Canvas 2 to V3 ROM:
I've just updated my canvas 2 to Jelly Bean official update from Micromax.
Before you proceed I would like to make sure that this site is nowhere guaranteed for your successful upgrade and we are nowhere responsible for any claims. This is just a tried and tested genuine way to upgrade to Jellybean only for Micromax Canvas 2 A110 users.
Software release notes (from Micromax ftp site):
1. Operating system is upgraded from ICS to Jelly bean.
2. M! Store is removed.
3. New wallpapers are integrated.
4. Software is backward compatible with old TP available (BYD Make).
Here is what you can do by yourself and it is simple too.
First of all take a complete backup of your data, you can use the following tools from the play.google.com
1. App Backup & Restore: to backup all your apps as apk files which will store them on mnt\sdcard2\ app_backup_restore
2. G Cloud Backup from GENIE9: It creates a cloud data in their server and stores all your data like SMS, Contacts, Settings etc in to their cloud space and whenever you want to restore you can do it from the cloud server with your registered user and password
3. SMS Backup & Restore: just for 2nd level safety you can store all your SMS on your external SD card as an XML file and can restore whenever you want.
4. Last but not least is one more level of safety you can take backup of your contacts easily by the android inbuilt feature of Export\Import inside the contacts app itself which stores the backup either in External SD card or your Gmail account.
Now is the actual task, download the following from the below sites:
1. Micromax A110 Windows driver:
File: Mobistel_Cynus_T1_Drivers_x86.rar from [ftp://sts.micromaxinfo.com:22/mxlive/A110/Drivers/]
Size: 3 MB
2. SP Flash Tools:
File: SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1220.01.zip from
[ftp://sts.micromaxinfo.com:22/mxlive/A110/Download%20tool/]
Size: 5 MB
3. V3_120313_Update to Jelly Bean
File: S9081_MP_F4.1_B1_IN_MMX_1.10.rar from
[ftp://sts.micromaxinfo.com:22/mxlive/A110/SW%20version/V3_120313_Update%20to%20Jelly%20Bean/]
Size: 282 MB
Note:
1. Username is mxlive and Password is M!cr0m@xlive
2. For windows 7 users on 64 bit if you find error while installing the driver due to lack of digital certificates then download one from the below link
File: MT6577 USB VCOM drivers.7z from
[http://www.mediafire.com/?3q8rhlp4ws9053o]
Size: 266KB
Detailed steps for upgrade:
1. Install the drivers first and then on successful driver installation open SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1220.01\Flash_tool.exe
2. Switch off your phone, remove the External SD card for safety
3. In Flash Tool, go to Options and Click USB Mode so that it is enabled. Again go to Options > DA Download All > Speed > Force to high speed.
4. Now on the opened SP Flash tool window, click the Download button. Ignore the warning messages and click on ‘Yes’
5. Then after you press download connect the phone to the PC via USB
6. Assuming that the drivers have installed properly the upgrade process will start. The Flash Tool will start the flashing process, the progress of which can be viewed from a yellow progress bar at the bottom of the Flash Tool
(Do not unplug / disconnect / abort the process unless you see the OK message)
7. After the process completes, a Green Ring will appear on your device signaling that the process was successfully completed
8. Then close the flash tool and disconnect the USB and start the phone
9. It may take a little longer to start for the first time and you will see the superfone logo for a little longer time, it’s normal.
10. It asks for all the configurations again. Just give them and enjoy the cool new features and smooth UI of JB. Don’t forget to restore all your data back.
One greater thing after update is the internal storage memory has been increased to 1.5 GB and the internal SD got reduced to 1 GB.
I’ll put below the screen shots of the new Jelly Bean OS.

If you have downloaded the files from the links mentioned here and if u still facing SIM card issue then just verify whether your SIM is 64k or not. Heard there is some bug in JB for SIM not of 64k.

Plz help...when i click on download button it says..plz load a scatter file...
ReplyDeleteThe scatter file will be in the v3 ROM folder which u downloaded from link 3
DeleteI did everything u said... got the green ring but still on ICS
ReplyDeletesame here...
DeleteI assume u haven't rooted before and your using V1 ROM which u had got by default and try following the steps again, or try clicking on 'Firmware->upgrade' instead of 'Download' in the Flash tool, and make sure your phone is switched off when u connect it to PC with a USB cable.
DeleteIf you still facing the problem then it is recommended to get it done from the service center.
Deletei had done the process as mentioned and all the steps were done till the GREEN RING. but when i switched on the phone and followed the configurations as mentioned but it still shows me the ANDROID VERSION 4.0.4. Please help.
ReplyDeletePlease follow every single step in order. It shouldn't be in ICS. Hope or A110 is not rooted and is on default ROM.
DeleteIf you still facing the problem then it is recommended to get it done from the service center.
DeleteAfter clicking on download in flash tool it remains at 0% only. Does not move at all... I'm using windows 8 pro 64bit....
ReplyDeleteI had done on win 7 64bit, so it shouldn't be a problem for u. Try installing the driver from the link I've given under note.
DeleteAlso disable firewall and antivirus for a moment n see
I have tried... but my mobile shown charging... How can I update... plz help
DeleteU should switch-off ur phone when u start connecting to PC with USB cable. And it doesn't matter if it is showing as charging as far as it is switched off.
DeleteNOT WORKING.................. SORRY ..
ReplyDeleteWifi Signal bar weak even if we are closer to the router..Battery drains like scoreboard bought just 2 months back.
ReplyDeletePlanning to rollback from v3 to v2 battery draining remains the serious issue!
Any one got tips to resolve this issue then please comment...
I have updated my phone to v3 from v2 and downloaded the update from MMX ftp server everything goes fine but battery drains like live score board and Im planning to rollback to V2 rom
ReplyDeleteIf anybody has solutions please post it
Have tried to off the applications one by one but no respite and did thecalibration 3-4 times also.
Have bought the phone before 2 months..
Please post the solutions
It might be issue with certain apps, try unistalling unwanted apps and apps which always runs in the background like G Cloud or Hook Up or even Facebook,Gmail apps.
DeleteAfter updating to V3 my battery backup has not changed, it still runs for 1 full day after using Wi-Fi for 2hrs,games-1hr,calls-1-2hr,along with browsing camera and other apps.
It does work....
ReplyDeleteHave patience & try various settings.
Jelly bean is worth the upgrade. Its smooth.
Thanks a ton
Happy JB's...it is really worth ur phone after JB update..even though the RAM decreased from 125-175MB to 100-150MB...but the OS handles them smoothly..so ideally it still never hangs
DeleteFollow the steps given above
ReplyDeleteafter updating...no signal..
ReplyDeletewrong imei error appears..
given phone to service centre now,,,,
Did it break while updating...u should be very careful while u update OS, if it breaks connection in between also ur in trouble.
DeleteFor me it hardly took around 10mins once i connected to PC.

DeleteI heard SIM card should be of 64k, check this. Very old SIM's without 64k have these problems.

Hi Dear,
ReplyDeleteI updated the Micromax A110 as you said & it was successfully installed, Even green circle appeared saying successful, When I swithced on the phone the version says andriod 4.0.4 & even sim is not working, Please help.
u had downloaded ICS V2 ROM,whic is only 236 MB,u must download JB update which is 282 MB,try again downloading it
DeleteDownload the file very carefully as provided in the steps above. Else if u download V2 ROM then you will still be in ICS.
DeleteAfter i followed your steps...jelly bean installed successfully but now my sim card does not work...what to do ...please help!!?
ReplyDeleteCheck if ur SIM is of 64k, else it wont work for JB as published elsewhere.
DeleteBro,
ReplyDeletein the above screenshot which are the launchers u using? can u tell?
@Sushak the screenshots are of default JB launcher, But i've installed Apex launcher also. Note that JB will change ur User Interface, update your ring tones with cool tones.
Deletehi Bro,
ReplyDeleteIf i update from the above procedure.. Will my phone be under warrenty.. or will it be void...
Micromax suggests to give your phone for Service center for updating to JB, but most of the service centers still not aware of JB update, and i don't prefer giving it to Micromax service center, not sure how much time they take to give it back. And more over service center also update with the Micromax FTP site, which is shared here.
DeleteIF i try to open the ftp://sts.micromaxinfo.com:22/mxlive/A110/Drivers/ & [ftp://sts.micromaxinfo.com:22/mxlive/A110/Download%20tool/]
ReplyDeletethe page appears like

Deleteand then navigate to the folder "Download tool"
and ftp://sts.micromaxinfo.com:22/mxlive/A110/Drivers/ opens properly for me when i checked. It will ask u for the username and password.
