Installing ClockworkMod Recovery on ThL W100

If you want to install a ROM, backup / restore your phone, you need this. It's ClockworkMod (CWM) Recovery.

To install it, you should do this:
(Again, I'm not responsible for anything that causes damages to your phone. Be sure that the store you bought the phone allows you to do this, without losing warranty.)

- Your phone needs to be rooted (follow this tutorial!);
- Go to Play Store;
- Download and Install "Mobileuncle Tools";
- Download the ClockworkMod Recovery for ThL W100 (mirror #1);
- Rename the file you've downloaded to "recovery.img";
- Move the file to your SD Card;
- Open up Mobileuncle Tools on your phone;
- Select "Recovery Update";
- Choose the file "recovery.img" you've moved to your SD card;
- You're DONE!

Now, your phone has a recovery software.
To access to the recovery, you can choose the option in Mobileuncle Tools "Into Recovery Mode", or if your phone is turned off, press the "Volume up" button with the "On/Off" button together.

It's recommended to each time you made changes to your phone (app install, etc) to keep a backup of your phone, just for safety reasons.
