Hi
I've been trying to root my phone (tecno spark 2 KA7 1 gb ) with no success.Ive tried a few custom recoveries out there but none works I've also tried patching stock with magisk which also failed
I did all this via adb(unlocked bootloader) since sp flash tool requires DA files
If anyone can share a working custom recovery or port one plz help

Any leads to the right direction will be appreciated
Thanks in advance

you don't necessarily need a custom recovery to root
what error did you get while using magisk method to root? and at what point exactly?

Everytime I flashed the recovery via adb it goes through successfully but when I reboot recovery I'm still at KA7 stock

Flash the recovery from fastboot then power off device (remove battery if it removable ) wait for some seconds then reboot to recovery via hardware key.

Battery is built in I've done what you've suggested(without removing the battery of course)with no success
I've rooted a few phones I don't have problems with the actual method I'm just trying to find a working custom recovery for this phone

where did you get the custom recovery you flashed and was it ported for your phone's build? 
Tecno Spark 2 Download Agent is listed @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-23243.html , you can flash the philz recovery with sp flash tool. 
State the phone's build no.

As i mentioned earlier, you don't necessarily need a custom recovery to root
root using the guide @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21427.html

if you don't have the stock rom / firmware for your phone's exact build number, then backup using the guide @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21970.html
you can download DA for your model @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-23243.html to perform the backup

do you have firmware or stock rom backup for your phone's build number? or you're using files from a different KA7 build?
