So far it's been running without any issues. Just posting in case anyone is interested.

thankz buddy merko cherry wala mila nahi tha
and i have created another rom wait 2-3 days

 

[dobermaxx]

I spoke too soon, I found an issue. The phone enters sleep of death randomly when wifi and data connections are on. No issues with both off.

I also found a battery error in ASI logs

E/BatteryService(110)
shutdownifNoPower: mBatteryLevel=88
shutdownifNoPower: mBatteryTemperature=0
shutdownifNoPower: mBatteryLevel=88
shutdownifNoPower: mBatteryTemperature=0
shutdownifNoPower: mBatteryLevel=88
shutdownifNoPower: mBatteryTemperature=0

This seems to occur every 30 seconds

Full ASI log attached for reference

The ROM is in the link I posted, what I meant by update is I was providing additional information for my previous post. Sorry for the confusion.

I have all apps extracted from MMX A85, I can send them on mail or upload, let me know how you want to receive it for testing.

Can you mail it to me please! Here is my email ID - ssrivatsa@ymail.com
I did the upgrade about two weeks back. since last two days the screen freezes every time I plug-in the phone for charging. Has anyone had similar issue after the upgrade. I think it must be hardware issue that I can get it fixed at Micromax service centre. If I have to go to Micromax for help, I ll have to downgrade from the chinese update to stock froyo 2.2 otherwise I ll have issues with the warranty.
If anyone can help with downgrade tutorial will be of great help.

MY REQUIREMENT FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT...
BEFORE BEGINNING I REQUEST EVERYONE TO ROOT 2.2
EXTRACT THE GESTURE CONTROL APP AND OTHER APPS INSTALLED BY MMX (PLEASE I NEED THEM)FROM THE ROOT AND UPLOAD IT AS I REQUIRE IT

*ALL AT YOUR OWN RISK*

FIRSTY I CAN CREATE THE TUTORIAL BUT NOT UPLOAD THE FILE SO DOWNLOAD THE CHINESE VERSION

700??2.3.rar????|115??|??|115,????|??????|????|??? ?-???????
wait 1 minute and click on the 4th button below the photo which will not be colored and contains arrow for menu
your download will be started

YOU CAN NOW EXPERIENCE DUAL CORE POWER WITH 2.3.4

THE ROM IS QUIET SMOOTH AND IS 2.3.4
YOU ALL WILL LOSE ALL YOUR INBUILT APPS,GAMES AND GESTURE CONTROL
EVERY OTHER SCROOLING IS SMOOTH
TESTED GAMES TEGRA 2 WORKING SHADOWGUN AND GTA 3
STILL NO 1080P PLAYER BUILTIN SUPPORT
I THINK THEIR IS PROBLEM WITH PROXIMITY SENSOR IT WORKS SOMETIMES AND SOMETIMES DOES NOT WHICH MAKES IT UNSTABLE

THE BATTERY BACKUP IS SAME AS I EXPERIENCED TODAY
MUSIC APPS 1 IS SMOOTH
CONTACTS ARE BETTER EVEN DIALING
SAME SPEED IN CAMERA AND SAME RECORDING

I WILL KEEP TESTING OTHER ROMS IN 5-6 DAY WILL GET BETTER ROM

EXTRACT THE ABOVE FILE IN A DRIVE(C OR D OR ANY)
F:\700升级2.3\NvMultiDown\
F:\700升级2.3\驱动\usbpcdriver\
F:\700升级2.3\APandroid2.3w700.rar
F:\700升级2.3\vcredist_x86.rar
INSTALL vcredist_x86 BY EXTRACTING IN A DIRECTORY AND INSTALLING
rename all chinese language folders like 700升级2.3 to 700_2.3 as it give errors

EXTRACT APandroid2.3w700.rar PASSWORD IS longgewansui
IN EXTRACTED FILES EXTRACT APandroid2.3w700 AND GOTO APandroid2.3w700/AP YOU WILL AGAIN FIND APandroid2.3w700 FOLDER
BRING THIS FOLDER TO A DRIVE'S ROOT'S IT CONTAINS FILES AS IT GIVES MANY ERRORS
APandroid2.3w700\AP\APandroid2.3w700
COPY THE INTERNAL APandroid2.3w700 INTO OTHER DRIVE
LIKE D:\APandroid2.3w700
(WHERE APandroid2.3w700 CONTAINS FILES LIKE RECOVERY ,BOOT,ETC)

STEP 1

POWER OFF YOUR PHONE
PRESS VOLUME UP AND POWER BUTTON UNTIL SCREEN TURNS GREENS
(DONT WORRY IT WILL GO BLACK IN 2 SECONDS ITS NORMAL)
LEAVE THE BUTTONS THEN PLUG USB IN IT
GOTO DEVICE MANGER IN YOUR PC'S CONTROL PANEL
YOU WILL FIND APX IN OTHER DEVICES THEN
RIGHT CLICK AND UPDATE DEVICE DRIVERS
SELECT THE USB PC DRIVER FOLDER UNDER CHINESE FOLDER AND ALLOW IT TO BE INSTALLED
SORRY NO APX IN MINE AS DRIVERS ARE ALREADY INSTALLED
