Hi Silesh,

Just today the freshly updated VIBEROM_V1.0_1411 has been been released by Lenovo.

I hardly dare to ask, but could you create your versions of this VIBE ROM so we can all flash the latest ones?

Download links are following:

K860 - http://pub.ota.lenovomm.com/VIBEROM/ST/ST1411/K860_1_S_2_004_0063_140310_szb.zip

K860i - http://pub.ota.lenovomm.com/VIBEROM/ST/ST1411/K860i_1_S_2_004_0107_140310_szb.zip

Many many thanks upfront.

I have started the upload of both the files . Should take about 3 hours.

Usual changes have been incorporated. I have also deodexed the files this time. The szb file is inside the 7z archive which is password protected with my xda user name. Let me know if it went well...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] oneheart1975:
It was a known problem that 4.2.2 eats to much RAM and our K860 cannot cope up causing lags. Well that is for other ROM though. I hope this one its different. :)

Anyway, i give up downloading this from Vibe, its way too slow. Silesh, im downloading yours.. thanks for the mod again!

[Miscellaneous Android Development] wikowikowiko:

I already tried but it was failed.

Hi Silesh,

Is it possible for you to upload the modified framework-res.apk with the loaction fix

Thanks for all the support provided till now
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nekromaniak:
Couldnt get SIlesh's mod to work.. waited for 10-15mins after the "lenovo" logo was shown and nothing happened..

I downloaded the rom twice from needrom, but both gave me CRC failed error during extraction.. File is corrupted i guess..

Is there anywhere else i can download this ROM? I'd like to mod it myself by looking at Silesh's tutorial vid, which i had success during the last ROM release.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] oneheart1975:
how about from the VibeRom site?

I am uploading a flashable zip version of the rom for the k860. It should take a couple of hours to upload. You can try that if you are interested....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Holandeserrante:
Hi Silesh,

Could you explain me what the difference is between the flashable zip versions and the .szb versions?

I don´t mean from a content point of view, cause I suppose both ROMS contain the same data, but from a technical point of view.

What I mean to say is; what is the difference if I flash a flashable zip or if I flash an .szb file? Is the final result any different?

Also, would it be possible to upload the flashable zip of the K860i?

Thanks for all your great work........
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
Szb contains bootloader+modem+kernel+cwm recovery+system image.

Zip contains system+kernel. You need to manually flash recovery to flash the zip file. Then manually flash the modem aka cpimage later.

Final result in terms of functionality is similar.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] oneheart1975:
If you come from an older version (VibeRom 1403 for this case), you can flash the newer zip version (VibeRom 1411) and do not need to flash anymore the recovery and modem because the previous one will be retained, right?

Basically, my point is, I am currently using your 1403 version of VibeRom and is planning to download and flash the zip version of 1411. What should be the sequence:

1) Back-up

2) Factory Reset

3) Clear Cache and Dalvik

4) Flash new ROM version

5) Reboot

6) Load back up apps/data

Is that it? Or I still have to flash the recovery and modem again.

I have been flashing ROMs for my Galaxy S2 before with CM nightlies, they even have dirty flash, meaning no need to execute factory reset.. all the apps and data will be retained and only the system and kernel is updated.

Please enlighten me.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
Yup, dirty flash is fine. Steps 2 and 6 not required.

You will retain all your data & settings.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] oneheart1975:
Great thanks.

I cannot read signatures in my Nexus 7. Can you please send the URL of the zip file?

Was able to download the file and flash (dirty flash) it without any problem. Thanks man. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] LePrasad860:
Can you post some screenshots?

also does it support "Stay Awake" feature while charging?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] oneheart1975:
where can I find that feature? I don't use it, that's why. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] oneheart1975:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] LePrasad860:
Even I cant find the same in VIBEROM, we have it in CM10.1 kernel.

I hope all networks are working fine, and it comes with default super camera app.

Latest k860i zip file uploaded...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wikowikowiko:
Thanks silesh, i have been using yours now. it's a good one!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Holandeserrante:
Hi Silesh,

Will flash both the K860 and K860i phones I have this weekend with your latest zip file ROMS, but before doing so I want to make sure I follow the correct steps.

Both phones come from older Lenovo stock ROMS, so NOT the latest VIBE ROM.

So, if I understand correctly, I have to do following?

1.) Backup current apps

2.) Reboot to CWM and wipe data/cache/dalvik

3.) Flash ROM zip file

4.) Flash CWM Recovery (Link_cwm_recoveryV1.szb file)

5.) Flash Radio Files (CPIMAGE.szb file)

6.) Reinstall backuped apps

And then it´s all OK or did I leave out some steps?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
No need to data wipe... You will retain all apps and settings.

Cpimage flash is not a must.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abes00:
Hi all! I'm new to this thread and maybe you guys can help me.

I'm tried both the flashable zip and szb files for the latest viberom of Silesh but both failed.

For the zip. I always end up at the recovery every boot. And for the szb, I'm stuck at the lenovo logo.

Tried flashing (from STOCK ROM) using

Recovery: CWM

ROM: VIBEROM 1411

*Both from Silesh's mf links

Steps I used:

1) Boot to cwm, clear cache/dalvik

2) Flash zip/use szb /sdfuse method.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

UPDATE: solved by using szb then reflashing zip

Say Awake While Charging

Hi All,

Got the solution to turn on this feature.

Tried on VIBEROM.

Follow the steps.

1. Go to System Settings

2. Go to About Phone

3. Go to Version Information

4. Click on "Internal Version Number" multiple times.

5. You will see a toast saying " You are now a developer"

6. Bo back and check for new setting option "Developer Options" just above "About phone" in System settings.

7. Open "Developer Options" Enable them and select Stay Awake

Now your screen will remain on while charging, useful when you want to live scores on net with USB charging.

also, you can use the App "Keep Screen On", to enable screen depending on the App. Eg. Music :):laugh::good:

Upgraded the miui ROM ota to 4.3.28. I am not able to install gapps on this. It just freezes every time I try to input the username itself. Any suggestions how to have a working gapps on miui
[Miscellaneous Android Development] LePrasad860:
miui ROM ota to 4.3.28

Dear Vivek,

I had similar problem after 807 update on stock rom.

Try to do following things.

Clear Dalvik Cache, using system cleanup or CWM.

In Settings-Apps-All - Clear the data and cache for Google Services Framework, Google play Store, Google Account manager, Google play services.

Do reset app preferences.

Disable - Enable all the google services.

It should resolve the FC problem.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vladog8:
How do you like miui ? How about preformance etc ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] LePrasad860:
Hi Vivek,

Can u send the list of new features in this ROM?

I have used older version, and keen in using this, if there are new and good features.

currently having stable VibeRom, so want chnagelog for MIUI.

Also share any screenshot for the rom.

Hi All,

if you are getting "Cannot Save Invalid Number" error, while trying to save any contact with country code suffix then follow the steps.

1. Note down the numbers in contact.

2. remove all the numbers in contact and save it.

3. Edit the contact and input the numbers manually (w/o any dash) and save the contact, it will get saved.

4. Now you can edit again and prefix the country code if u want to.

5. Mostly this happens if you are frequently, fetching contacts from a google account.

6. You can backup them in Lenovo format and next time you wont get error while edit.

thanks in advance.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vladog8:

Great phone

Hi,

I just received the phone from this shop: http://www.fastcardtech.com/goods.php?id=7526

ROOT was successfull (just need to rename folders after UNZIP (because the folder name contains sime ****ty chinesse characters)

I installed ROM with CM10 (Android 4.1.2): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35267132&postcount=78

And my android is working great! (AnTuTu benchmark: 15400) ;) - Just sometimes the phone has some small freezes... Anyone has the same problem?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] k1llerm:
With cm10 i also get freezes , force closes and restarts ! On the overseas 4.0.4 rom i get 16350 on antutu ! Is better to wait for the official 4.1 :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] amoyan:
I am currently using the official android 4.1.2 release ... and guys you can get along comfortably without the Google Play Store. For example, this app, the XDA app can be downloaded from the Lenovo app store. I did for FB, Flip board, whatsapp, twitter, Uber ... so I can survive without getting my apps from Google store because the the Lenovo store has almost all the apps I need from the Play store.:D

Update 1. The rooting method as described in this post does not work anymore on the latest 4.1.2 szb but other methods can :cool:

Update 2. Inserted gapps into the 121226 szb and now have Google services running. So very stable 4.1.2 official ROM.

CM10

Someone I know actually talked to the CM people and they suggested that its is possible to merge a CM10 build with the K860 releases. (the kernel sources for LePhone ... does anyone know where they are ? If you know then it would make the job a lot easier.) But just taking a stock release from Lenovo and add enough stuff from CM10 is possible. I tried unpacking the szb and inserting gapps ... and it works to the point where Play store runs ... but ... some of the apps have 'this app is not compatible with this device' but the actual app works when using APK of the same version in the Play store. So some more work needed.:(

update :

here is a rom based on the most recent China release modified to include Google.

You mean to say I don't need any custom recovery/unlocked boot loader anything. This will work directly.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
Create sdfuse folder in your external sdcard. Download the szb file to the folder. Reboot to bootloader and choose sdcard update. That's it. Then you can install cwm recovery and root your phone.

Another option is to flash the cwm recovery and use the zip file I created.

Since the latest 2 Vibe rom updaes i cant play candy crush , the game starts, and just crash. Any1 else have same problem ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] LePrasad860:
This may be happening due to higher usage of RAM by latest VIBEs, even sometime my browser gets closed when multiple windows are opened.

You can identify the RAM consuming applications, by going into SystemSettings->Apps->Running

If your phone is rooted then you can choose them to remove, be cautious to have backup of the RAM and data before removing any App.

Or you can use alternate apps e.g solo launcher in place of Lenovo launcher which consumes much of RAM, even Lenovo weather server keeps running in background consumes much RAM. other few Apps are : WhatsApp, Facebook, Browser(when multiple pages in memory)

You can choose them to kill before starting the game.

Hi All,

While using the VIBE 1403, 1411 I keep getting a toast saying "User Experience has granted the Superuser for an interactive shell" there is no any problem with this, but while charging the phone the screen keeps bright and deem due to this.

Just wondering if we can disable the toast for this, I tried disabling in Superuser App, but no use.

also, why user experience needs Root access? is it the cause of battery draining?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vladog8:
Maybe its ram usage ,but i always have 200-300 mb ram free, i disabled lenovo wether and all other crap apps that keep eating ram. I dont have any other problems with other apps, it doesnt get stuck, or reboot or anything, so its kinda confusing

Let me know if any other input.:good:

Is it officially said that its a Last update? I hope that's for VIBEROM.

but we have stock rom also, but no updates to it since 807 :|.

Please share the link with corresponding news if any.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vladog8:
Its the last update ever, vibe rom is there official rom now, they went from 807 (4.2) to vibe (4.2.2) and thats it. If u never gor OTA download szb and flash it because it work much better than 807. Also there is news from lenovo that the chip doesnt support higher android ( 4.3-4.4) doesnt know why ,but thats what they claim. So K line is done with updates. Only K900 will get 4.3 .
[Miscellaneous Android Development] LePrasad860:
That's Sad... I am on 1411 VIBE rom now.. Its good but not perfect so was expecting a major update.. I have tried other ROMs as well, like MIUI, CM10, but no ROM is perfect so kept this VIBE.. what is the issue with chipset.. it shares similar processor as of Galaxy s3 isn't it?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vladog8:
Thanks for the link, i will check later with google translate. Im just saying what i have read on lenovo vibe official notice. I think that it does have same chip as the samsung s3, so i dont understand that kit-kat is not possible do to chip not supporting it.

Dear Silesh,

Lenovo released the latest updated VIBE ROMs (V1.0_1418) for the K860 & K860i on 30th of April 2014:

Would you be so kind to create your usual flashable versions of both ROMs so we can easily update our phones?

Kind regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
Are the earlier rom zip files flashing correctly? I mean the zip versions and not the szb ones.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Holandeserrante:
Yes, they flashed OK.

---------- Post added at 01:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 PM ----------

Don´t know if you can create both the zip files + szb files just to make sure........cause I believe some people had trouble with the zip files.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Silesh.Nair:
I will create only the szb versions this time. I am really short of time.

update

Since the original rom was in zip format, i decided to create a zip file instead. I have removed the cpimage and recovery leaving only the system files and boot image in the zip. Flash using cwm/miui recovery and see if it works. User data will be retained, meaning it is a non wipe rom.

You can download them from this link. Md5 checksums are given below.
