Excellent port by Mr. Wind here. Most of the credit should go to him for releasing the LeWa port.

2. Install [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register] and verify in device manager
3. Run [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]
4. Load appropriate scatter
5. Turn Off Phone, pull out the battery for 5 seconds and put it back in
6. Click 'Upgrade Firmware' on Flash Tools
7. Plug in Phone - You will see it install the rom. Takes about 2 or 3 minutes. It should finish with a green circle
8. Critical step - Boot into recovery, clear cache, clear dalvik, factory restore, reset
9. Bam you're a ninja.
NOTE: For anyone having an issue with the above drivers, please use these [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]. They're now including the MTK6589 ADB. Excellent find by Kuroyume.
Known Possible Issues
1. Battery icon will look fragged if charging while the phone is off
2. To power back on after powering off from within Android, hit Vol+Power until you see the first logo, then let go. Reboot and boot into recovery from within Android works no problem at all.
3. No deep sleep
4. Compass not working
This isn't permanent. I installed a stock ROM just to test and make sure. It's likely due to the LK.BIN / UBOOT which solves problems with booting into recovery and the boot animation, but causes these two minor issues.
Guys, I put a ton of time into this one. At least 6 or 7 hours testing, flashing, reflashing, reading the ROM twice over and a crap load in between. But I love it. Enjoy.
