Preparation Steps

• Use this post only with the MT6582 devices.
• Do not use this post for any other different Android devices.
• For the ‘how-to’ guide to be completed successfully you will need to have a rooted device and a custom ROM has to be installed on it.
• The installed custom Recovery has to be TWRP Recovery. No other different Custom Recovery works with the Dark-Kat Android 6.0.1 ROM installation.
• Make sure that the installed TWRP build is the latest one, so that it will support the new Android 6.0.1 custom ROM installations.
• In the ‘how-to’ part of this post you can find two extra preparation steps: the NANDROID Backup and the Factory Reset ones.
• The NANDROID Backup creates a full restore point for your device, one that you can use in case the new custom ROM doesn’t work with your phone.
• The Factory Reset process wipes clean the system partition, but it won’t delete any data files from the internal storage.
• Factory Resetting the device means that the old custom ROM will be removed completely for the new Dark-Kat Android 6.0.1 Custom ROM to boot successfully.
• In case you have to save any data from installed applications, then you should use the Helium app.
• Use the tutorial only if you are an advanced user. We cannot be blamed in case you brick the phone nor in case you lose any data in the process.
• Read the entire tutorial first and make sure that you won’t be skipping any steps.
• Check the battery charge level of your device and make sure that it is over 50%, as it will prevent the phone from switching off during installation.
• Now that you know all of the above you can continue to the next part of this post.
