The device sports a large 5″ inch screen and is equipped with a 1.2GHz processor and 512 MB of RAM. With these specs, you should be fine with running some normal games but the resource-intensive games, such as from Gameloft, won’t work as smooth as they’d on any high-end smartphone. Recently a root method has been discovered for the device so you can access root-level files and make customizations on your device. In this guide, we’ll show you how you can root your Karbonn A111 smartphone and unlock the true potential of your device!

      Hello Abhishek,

      Karbonn devices usually have their drivers available in the Internal storage of the device. Just plug-in your device to your PC and look for drivers in the storage.

      Hope that helps!

      Hello Sumit,

      Well, there’s no official Jelly Bean update available for the Karbonn A111. However, you could give custom ROMs a try if they work for you.

      Thanks!
