These are the steps to install CWM recovery on the Walton Prime GH2 smartphone with the help of MobileUncle tools. CWM recovery stands for ClockworkMod recovery, and is the original custom recovery people installed years ago. CWM uses the same Volume and Power keys of your Walton device as the stock recovery normally would. So, if you are familiar with using your stock recovery, you’ll be fine using this version of custom recovery.

CWM gives your Walton smartphone the same options to recover your device as the stock recovery. The difference is that CWM gives you more options than just recovering the device, such as the ability to take NANDroid backups and flash a custom ROM.

Files You Need

  1. Download the ClockworkMod recovery you need for the Walton GH2 from this page.
  2. Download the MobileUncle MTK Tools package from the Google Play Store here.
  3. Installing CWM recovery on the Walton Primo GH2 smartphone does void the Walton warranty. You can flash the stock recovery on the GH2 at a later date and get the warranty working again. By installing the stock recovery, you are wiping the custom recovery at the same time.
  4. The guide to extract a file when it is on the desktop is relevant for a Windows PC. The way in which you extract a file may vary between operating systems.

  3. Extract the recovery file by right-clicking over the file and choosing the “extract here” option from the menu.
