Download the necessary drivers and tools to a
folder on your desktop and extract the archives
to their respective folders. First, we shall root
the phone and later install the CWM recovery
patch. Make sure you have administrative rights
on your Windows PC before you proceed.

Rooting the Xolo Q700

For this, we will need the USB and ADB drivers
installed. Go ahead and install the drivers
(usually one driver should work, but in certain
cases, you would have to install both the
drivers). To be on the safer side, install both to
make your work easier. Once the drivers are
installed, head over to the phone’s settings and
click around 5 to 7 times on the “Build Number”
in the “About Phone” in “Settings”. This will
enable the “Developer Options” from where you
should enable “USB Debugging”. Then head back
to the “Settings > Security” and enable
“Unknown sources”. Now connect the phone to
the PC and let the drivers be installed for the
ADB mode. Your phone is now ready for rooting.
If you have installed both the drivers on the PC,
make sure that the “PdaNet Desktop” utility is
not running in the background. You will see the
app running in the system tray. Shut it down or
your phone will not be rooted. Don’t forget to do
this before proceeding.

Now all you need to do is double-click on the
folder where you downloaded the files, double-
click on the Motochopper folder and then again
double-click on the “Run.Bat” file. This file is a
DOS mode batch executable file, which will do
the needful for you. Proceed with the on-screen
instructions and your phone should be rooted in
a few seconds. In case you see the procedure
halted for more than 5 minutes, you should try
repeating the method. If you still get stuck here,
go to the “Settings > Security” and enable/
disable “Verify Apps”. This should allow the
Superuser app needed to be installed on the
phone by the rooting script. Now run the batch
file again till you see the last line stating “Exploit
complete” and “press any key to reboot the
phone”. Your phone should reboot automatically
and your Xolo Q700 is finally rooted. Install any
app that requires root permissions, such as Root
Explorer or Titanium Backup, to verify that the

rooting is successful.

Flash the CWM Recovery on the Xolo Q700

Rooting and flashing a recovery software on the
phone is considered risky and will void any and
all warranty on the phone. The procedure can
also brick your phone rendering it dead or
useless. Do this with extreme care.
Assuming that you have gathered all the
necessary files for this process in a folder on
your desktop, proceed with extreme caution.
Also make sure that you have two files required
for the recovery present on the recovery folder.
These files are “recovery.img” and
“MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt”. Now head
on to the folder “SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1248.0.96”
in the folder you downloaded all the files. Here,
execute the “Flash_Tool.exe” file and bring on
the utility. Now follow the steps given below
very, very carefully. Do not connect the phone as
yet.
1. In the Smart Phone Flash Tool utility, click on
the button named “Scatter-loading” and feed the
file named “MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt”.
The window below will fill up with some vague
values and text. Make sure the “Recovery” line is
the only one checked.
2. Then click on the “Recovery” line and feed the
file “Recovery.img” from the folder you
downloaded. Usually this is done automatically,
but we recommend you confirm this step.
3. Next, click on “Window” in the menu, click on
“Write Memory”. Make sure the check mark is
present. This will bring up an additional tab
“Write Memory” in the main interface.
4. Click on the “Write Memory” tab. Here, check
the box “EMMC” in the “Memory Settings”
section.
5. Now click on the “Open Raw Data” button and
feed it the “Recovery.img” file again. This file
path should be seen in the “Write Parameter”
field below.
6. This step is crucial. In the “Write Parameter”
section, you will find two mode fields— “Begin
address” and “Container Length”. Enter these
two values respectively:
Begin Address: 0x2d80000
Container Length: 0x600000
The above values are “Zeros” and not the
alphabet “O”. Double-check the values or copy
and paste them from here. Check the screenshot
for verification.
7. Once all these settings are done, hit the “Write
Memory” button on the top. The utility will start
searching for the phone.
8. Now turn off the phone, remove the battery
and reinsert it after around 30 seconds. Do not
switch it on. Just connect the switched-off
phone to the USB cable.
The drivers for the EMMC mode will be installed
automatically and the utility will start writing the
recovery software to the phone. You can see this
happening and confirm it with the change in
colours and the activity on the bottom of the
utility’s window. At times, the phone’s drivers
take a while to be installed. Don’t panic if the
utility does not continue ahead after the drivers
are installed. Give it a while more, then
disconnect and reconnect the phone again after
the drivers are installed. Voila! The recovery
utility is installed and to confirm this, you will
see a small square window pop up with a bright
green circle in it. It is now safe to disconnect
your phone.
To get into the recovery mode, simply press the
“Volume UP + Power” buttons together for a few
seconds and you will automatically land into the
recovery mode. Now you can take backups and
flash custom ROMs on your Xolo Q700.
