Install Twrp recovery on micromax canvas nitro a311 and a310
Flashing a custom rom on your micromax canvas nitro a311 requires a recovery installed.Since micromax does not release kernel sources its hard to compile a recovery for this device and hence we will not have any official support.But we have twrp compiled for canvas nitro a311 by a xda senior member "yogesh.kalyana" big thanks to him for bringing this amazing recovery for our device.
This twrp recovery is compiled and tested working on A311 but developer quotes that it works on A310 too.As we all know flashing is a risky process we take no responsibility if you brick your device.
About Twrp recovery:
Twrp stands for team win recovery project.It is one first recovery to offer a completely touch driven interface.The ui is completely xml based so you can customise the interface with different themes and also this is only recovery that supports themes.Unlike the clockworkmod recovery this recovery has the option to wipe all the data,cache,dalvik,system,internal with just only one swipe.Of course you have to choose what to be wiped on the device.
There are two reasons why this recovery has to be chosen over other clockworkmod.First reason being the ability to restore the individual portions of the complete nandroid backup and other being the multi rom support.Only twrp has the multi rom support for now.
Prerequisites:
