Dear fellow Pakistanis,
Today I will share with you something many of us have been looking for,YES...a working root method to root Qmobile Noir A2. I would like to thank a member of XDA-Developers "Nagdrx" <<< remember this name folks...its all because of his research.
Now for the method but before that a warning:
I am not responsible for any mishap to your phone as a result of this method and you will be testing it at your own risk
So lets begin shall we?
BUT FIRST...
Before you proceed, make sure that you have MTK6575 and your recovery partition has the same start address and size. Otherwise the recoveries here won't work for you. The recovery partition address starts from 0x0980000 and has a size of 0x00500000 (5 MB). You can check yours using MTKDriod tools or by typing "cat /proc/mtd" in terminal (or using ADB shell).
so..lets boogie!!!
Stuff you'll need:
Hardware : MT6575
Model : A2
Build number : ALPS.GB2.MP.V2.2
Build date UTC : 20120621-045853
Android version : 2.3.6
Baseband version: MAUI.11AMD.W11.50.SP.V14, 2012/04/20 13:54
Kernel version : 2.6.35.7 (wuhai@SW3-Server) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) ) #1 Thu Jun 21 11:55:57 HKT 2012

A BRAIN...and i really mean it...you need a big brain which is not easily distracted
Procedure:
Extract "Noir_A2_Root_Package.zip" - keep the destination in your BRAIN!
In the extracted folder copy this file "CWM-SuperSU-v1.04.zip" to the root (main folder) of your SD card.
Install drivers from "MT65x3 USB VCOM drivers" folder.
Now remove the battery of your mobile for ten seconds and put it back in, do not turn on your phone (DO IT ...DONT ASK QUESTIONS)
Open SP Flash tool, click "Scatter-loading" and select file "MT6573_Android_scatter.txt".
Make sure ONLY "RECOVERY" is checked in partition and "recovery(CWM).img" file is selected.
Press "f9" button on your keyboard and then plug in the phone to your computer with USB Cable within 12 seconds.
Once it is done, you will see a notification and a Green Circle. If you see it... YOU ROCK!
Boot into recovery by holding "volume +" and "volume -" and pressing the power key.
Select "recovery mode" from the options. You SHOULD see recovery menu in a while showing "CWM v5.5.0.4 for Android 2.3.x" on top..
(make a backup in recovery in case american army attacks your phone and destroys it.)
In recovery menu, select "install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from sdcard" and select "CWM-SuperSU-v1.04.zip" file from sdcard, go for YES option. Wait for the flash to complete.
Now select "reboot system now" option. Wait for the phone to reboot to normal mode.
YOU SHOULD NOW HAVE A ROOTED PHONE with SuperSU app installed, if you followed the steps correctly.
