The Tecno L8 Lite (e.g L8Lite-H808C1-M-161212V197 ) is an MT6580 powered phone running on Android 6 (Marshmallow)

How to root the Tecno L8 Lite



  1. Dump your firmware in scatter format using Miracle Box @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-13347.html
  2. Download SuperSU 2.78 @ https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457084094631642692 and save to both phone storage and SD card
  3. Create a new folder named Hovatek on your PC
  4. Copy preloader.bin from your Miracle Box backup into the Hovatek folder
  5. Download TWRP for Tecno L8 Lite ported by Team Hovatek @ https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4S-Z72...FZb1U/view
  6. Copy the TWRP recovery.bin and scatter file from the TWRP zip file downloaded above into the Hovatek folder, making peloader.bin, scatter file and recovery.bin (TWRP) in the folder
  7. Flash the preloader.bin and recovery.bin using Miracle Box @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-14106.html
  8. Boot the phone into recovery mode (Vol up + Power) after flashing
  9. In TWRP, if you get a prompt asking you to swipe to allow TWRP modify the system partition, tap KEEP READ ONLY
  10. In TWRP recovery, tap Install
  11. Navigate to the location of the SuperSU.zip and select it
  12. Swipe to confirm flashing of SuperSU.zip and wait till flashing is complete
  13. Reboot the phone normally
  14. Confirm Root by installing and running Root Checker @ https://play.google.com/store/apps/detai...heck&hl=en

It should. 
Just make full backup of your ROM (see the first bullet above), in case you get bricked, you will rollback the action.

Miracle box should work, just make sure you've installed VCOM drivers and if you're using win 8/10 disable drivers signature verification. 

BTW, what's the error you encounter while running miracle?
