How to Install ClockworkMod Recovery on the Micromax A25

A custom recovery’s useful when you’re sick and tired of using the aged stock firmware and there’s no news from your manufacturer on when a firmware update is going to be rolled out as it lets you flash custom ROMs and helps you bump up your firmware version almost immediately. Often times, custom ROMs provide much more features than the stock ones and come pre-rooted, no hassle of rooting and all that stuff.
