    4. Hi Mani,

      After updating your phone, you will get a TP UPDATE popup which will update your phone TP automatically. So, don't touch your phone touch panel while the TP is being updated, otherwise your phone may be some TP problem.

  40. after the flashng is complete
    goto recovery
    wipe cache/reset
    wipe dalvik cache
    thiz is the final step after flashing or else you get stuck in the boot animation

    1. Hi abhishek

      we want OTA update but this service not available in Micromax.
      latest micromax should provide this update officially on his site like mobistel
      and they should provide stock recovery flash-able file like mobistel
      in this type update have no risk
      but Micromax is Micromax !!!
