    Hello nazermasih,

    I have update the post. You have to first install the v4 Lollipop ROM on the Canvas Gold and then you have to install the v6 ROM.

    Please check the guide once more and let me know if that worked.

    Now i am getting an error “sending ‘recovery’ (1237137 KB)…
    FAILED (remote: Data is larger than all partitions size in target)”

    This is expected as the internal memory is only 800mb and your file size here is 1.2gb.

    I have performed below steps:
    wipe cache partition
    Factory reset
    cleared every possible thing from the mobile still have only 8oomb left.

    Please advice.

    If I am not wrong, Micromax Canvas Gold A300 has 32GB of internal memory, out of that you may be getting at least 25GB of phone memory.

    So, 1.2GB file should fit-in easily. You can temporarily copy all your files in the phone to a PC and then copy the ROM zip file(s) and then flash.

    Micromax has internal memory 0f approx 1.5 gb and phone memory has 25gb. my current available internal storage left after default app installation is 200mb.

    (correction) Internal storage is approximate 1.5gb and phone memory is 25gb. Once the phone is completely formatted, remaining storage is around 850mb. So when i try to copy the file in the internal storage it fails..Internal storage is very less… Do you think we can increase the internal storage?

    So copy the ROM files to the phone memory where you have 25GB space and try to flash the ROM from that location by selecting it on recovery when flashing.

    I tried that and it still din’t work.because when i flash, it first loads the file on my Internal Memory first, eventually fails with low memory. Do we have any instance where it worked?
