http://www.hikemobile.com/down_list-97-32-0.html
First you have to root your spice mi 535 using “zenhd root method” or “Framaroot method” and then install custom recovery using mobileuncle tool(TWRP,Cannibal Open Touch or Carliv Touch recovery) or using ‘mtkdroid tool”. Now do as below:
1.Download and install NCH express zip or 7zip compression tool
2.downld n install NOTE PAD ++
3.Open downloaded Pandora hike rom with 7zip or NCH EXPRESS ZIP
Here don't extract, just open it.
Opened rom contains:
META-INF
recovery
system
Boot.img
4.In that rom remove Recovery folder if not it will replaces ur CWM
5.Extract only one file in this order META-INF>com>google>android>updater-script
Note-extract only updater-script somewhere in your pc . Now delete this file permanently from Rom.
6.Minimize the 7zip window, don’t close. Now open extracted updater-script file with NOTEPAD++.don't use default windows notepad since it will make updater-script corrupt.
7.Edit like this-Delete 1st word in 1st Line. u will see like this 'assert' Don't delete more than that.only one word - assert
8.Then delete this line "package_extract_dir("recovery", "/system")"
9.Then this "set_perm(0, 0, 0544, "/system/etc/install-recovery.sh");"
10.Save it like this-save as all.
11.Close it and Maximize 7zip software window & add the edited updater-script file to rom exactly previously where u deleted updater-script.
12.Now go to system/build.prop and extract it using 7zip to desktop and delete it from ROM.Open it using notepad ++ and edit these lines:
ro.product.locale.language=zh
ro.product.locale.region=CN
persist.sys.timezone=Asia/Shanghai
In place of zh write en, CN-> US ,Asia/Shanghai-> Asia/Calcutta
Save all and add this build.prop using 7zip in ROM/system folder.
That's it all you have done.The rom saved.Now copy the rom on to ur sd card.Flash through cwm.

Which mobile you are having and which lewa version you are tried? Stock ROM should be flashed without any problem. Have you installed Pdanet vcom driver in your PC?. Follow my blog and facebook group for details.
What is this?
This mod removes the persistent "Device is HD capable" Notification that appears on many custom roms
Applicability?
This mod is meant for Yu Yureka Plus running Resurrection Remix Rom 5.8.0 Official Build. For other devices, keep reading...
How does it do it?
The culprit package that causes this notification to appear in the status bar is ims.apk - located at /system/vendor/app/ims
This mod replaces that file with a modded one. More on that below...
Instruction of use
1) Download file - NR_yurekaRR580o.zip
2) Reboot phone into TRWP recovery
3) Mount > System partition
4) Install > NR_yurekaRR580o.zip file
5) Reboot
Downloads
1) Notification remover - NR_yurekaRR580o.zip
2) To re-enable this notification again, flash this file - NEN_yurekaRR580o.zip
-------------------
FOR OTHER DEVICES
This mod was made using the ims.apk file extracted out of Resurrection remix rom 5.8.0 official build meant for the yureka plus phone. So whether this mod will work on other phones cannot be answered. But if you want to create this mod for your phone, here are some quick lessons:
1) Find ims.apk file in your phone and extract it to PC
Try looking for it in /system/vendor/app/ims
2) Use apktool and do these edits in ims.apk
Decompile ims.apk
In ims.apk>res>values>bools.xml
Change value of config_update_service_status to True
In ims.apk>res>values>strings.xml
Delete value of device_is_hd_capable
In ims.apk>res>values-mcc** (inside dozen or so folders) > bools.xml
Change all values of config_update_service_status to False
Re-compile ims.apk and give necessary signs. And use it any flashable zip
Credits:
This mod is based on KabirKalsi's similar mod found here that he made for the redmi 3. All credits to him.
