I just succeeded in rooting my phone after temporarily bricking it. I will be posting the procedure here. Nobody should be afraid of bricking his camon c8 because 1, the phone is cheap and it's a crappy rubbish , 2, stock rom for the camon c8 can now be downloaded at romkingz.net. to unbrick it. Now to the procedure.. Download the files, install mtk vcom drivers, open sp flash tool on your pc and run as Administrator, load scatter file, click on download, now connect your already turned off camon c8 to the computer via USB. Wait for the green pass mark to appear...... THE IMMEDIATELY BOOT TO RECOVERY. NOTE THAT IF YOU SIMPLY TURN ON YOUR PHONE AFTER FLASHING THE RECOVERY FULE, ANDROID WILL REPLACE YOUR FLASHD RECOVERY WITH THE ORIGINAL STOCK RECOVERY....... after booting into recovery, twrp recovery will come up and ask you if you want to modify recovery. Swipe to modify else it will be replaced on next reboot. Note also... DON'T ATTEMPT TO ALLOW THE TWRP TO INSTALL ITS OWN SUPER SU IF IT ASKS YOU TO, BECAUSE THAT WAS WHAT GOT MY PHONE BRICKED. INSTALL SUPER SU BY clicking on install, chose your zip file which contains the super su which you downloaded and install it. Reboot phone and wait for it to boot up. Might take a long while to. Just be patient

just follow my procedure. If it doesn't work for you, re-download the file directly from site. You have to register to be able to. Maybe the one you downloaded is corrupt. I downloaded directly from

I also used windows 8.1 to do mine. Just ensure that you uninstall all old drivers for the phone then install the vcom drivers. Also check your USB cable

Re: Tecno Camon C8 Discussion Thread [HOT] by lukmoore: 8:42pm On Oct 25, 2015
Rooted... We would need to make a custom rom based on android 5.1.1... The fix i had needs xposed framework to work and xposed framework currently does not support ARM v8 which is what our phone's chipset is based on.

Re: Tecno Camon C8 Discussion Thread [HOT] by Chidexter(m): 7:10am On Oct 26, 2015
hahahaha. I always knew this tecno camon would be crap.

The very moment i went to inquire bout infinix hot note pro, the seller advised me to purchase the tecno camon for 27k.

I dey mad?. When i can get infinix for 24k octa core long lasting battery processor speed 2gb ram, 16gb and many more.

LOL.... This camon 8 was overhyped! Besides the camera, which was still below expectations.
