Things You'll Need
The Method
If you get permission related errors check your phone and hit ALLOW when prompted
Now Install ClockWork Mod Recovery via Recovery Manager
If installation is successful you should now be able to boot into your newly installed custom recovery by holding the HOME key and pressing the POWER key.
If your phone gets stuck at the micromax logo it means that you failed to perform steps 3 to 8. It is absolutely compulsory for the phone to have the flash_image.zip and signed_test_flash.zip installed properly for the custom recovery to work.
Place any or ALL ROMS on your SDCARD and install them via custom recovery by selecting <install zip from SDCARD> and follow specific Instructions from your ROM post.
