Your device is in factory mode...Follow the procedure below :-

Remember, you have to read and carefully follow all steps, one by one as I have listed below, otherwise, you may brick/ damage your device

1. Back-up the folder "\data\nvram" from your device to your PC...If not possible, at least note both your IMEI numbers that can be restored later using MTK Droid Tools...

2. Download and extract the following in one global folder in your PC :-

(a) One of the two custom ROMs (with calling function and FM Radio) below (preferably Foxtrot v100) :-

(i) Foxtrot v100 : http://narod.ru/disk/64555789001.e729d57b788ab44ce6b6d92943a1bd23/SP_FT_A2107_Foxtrot_100.rar.html

(ii) Chinese : http://dl01.chinapader.com/ROM/A2107A_H_S121_120525.zip

(b) SP Flash Tool v3.1216.02 here : http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1708563&d=1360162416

(c) USB VCOM drivers here : http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1708564&d=1360162416

(d) USB Driver installation here : http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1708565&d=1360162416

3. If you haven't already, install the ADB drivers to your PC downloaded in step 2(c) as per "How to.doc" downloaded in step 2(d)...

4. If your device is 16GB, skip this step...If your device is 4GB or 8GB, browse to ROM folder (downloaded and extracted in step 2(a))... Open the file "MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" in Notepad++ and change "FAT 0x924e4000" to "__NODL_FAT 0x924e4000" (There is a double under-score before NODL and a single underscore after NODL)...Save file...

5. Make sure device is not connected to PC and is powered-off...Run SP Flash Tool "Flash_Tool.exe" downloaded in step 2(b), click on "Scatter-loading" button, browse to the ROM folder (downloaded and extracted in step 2(a)) and select file "MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" (the same file that you edited in step 4 if your device is 4GB or 8GB)...

6. Check the box "DA/ DL all with checksum" and click "Download" from main menu of Flash Tool...Now keep the "Reset" button of the device pressed while plugging in the USB cable to your PC and release the button once cable is plugged-in (reset button location is shown in a pic inside the "How to" doc you downloaded in step 2(d))...The ROM will start flashing to the device...This will take approximately 13 minutes with 7-8 different color bars completing 100% progress...Don't do anything until the big green circle appears with "Download OK" indication...

7. Power-On the device...You have installed the new ROM...Now delete the folder "\data\nvram" from your device and copy the folder you backed-up in step 1 to the same location in your device and restart...Otherwise run MTK Droid Tools (Download here : http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1757346&d=1361727709), select "Replace IMEI" and enter your IMEI numbers that you noted in step 1 and replace them, then restart device...

CWM recovery is simplier than SP Flash tools. if foxtrot rom do not like me , I can restore to the old rom.

Sir Makbro, i have already flashed different ROM from the links you provided still the autorotate is not working. Please help me sir. Thanks in advance.
[Android General] makbro:
CWM is simpler than SP Flash Tool but to recover device from Factory Mode, you may have to use SP Flash Tool...Many members have successfully recovered their devices with this procedure, any other procedure (including CWM) just doesn't work !!!

Secondly, the ROMs I have posted are flashed thru CWM 5.5.0.4, they cannot be flashed thru CWM 6.0.1.5 cause the back-up format is different...

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:21 PM ----------

All I can suggest is to check if "Auto Rotate" is ON or not from "Settings", cause all these modded ROMs have been flashed by myself and many other users and none have faced this issue !!!

Just the other day I had an idea that probably blame software module GSM, it queries that do not have SIM cards and load the entire system shamelessly.

One person suggested to check guess, he lost the brakes.

The solution is found: Step1 No work mic

1. put SP_FT_A2107_Foxtrot_100

2. RootExplorer go through at /system/etc/ firmware/ and delete the file modem.img (to remove press the "Rights of R / W") is responsible for the link.

ok here's what happened...

I couldn't get the normal android recovery off the phone after "flashing" CWM. After removing the /system/reboot-from-recovery.p file I was stuck on the Lenovo splash screen. Tried mobileuncle to no avail...BUT...

After Recovery Update in mobileuncle...flashing your recovery.img file BUT DON'T REBOOT INTO RECOVERY.

Restart the phone using the power button.

After the fully restarted I was able to then turn off the phone and reboot into the CWM recovery from mobileuncle and by pressing the power button and the vol up and down buttons.

Hope this helps anyone in my situation.

and how do i activate mtp?
[Android General] makbro:
You need to use the SP Flash Tool version that is included in the csns package i.e. "SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1206.01"...If you use the newer version OR your device is not bootable, you'll get this error message !!!

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:42 PM ----------

Screen resolution cannot be changed in LeWa as of now unfortunatley...MTP is enabled by default, you just need to turn "ON" the USB switch from Switches Menu (Switches Menu is opened by a wipe down while on Home screen)

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ----------

First install CWM Recovery using UPDATE 3 procedure posted by csns in this post : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35369121&postcount=1

[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
It may be possible to strip the Foxtrot rom down to work on the - F builds. Soon as I can get my nasty toothache to calm down, I'll start to see what I can do with it.
[Android General] BazmanFoo:
oh great.

Do you know if the Vodafone model is -F?
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
I'm not sure right off. If look in the System/build.prop it should tell there. Should be near the top of the file.
[Android General] daoliverio:
I've got a CWM backup. If I just flash do you think it will brick?
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
It's a good possibility if you use the -H rom. I'm working on stripping the Foxtrot rom to possibly work on the -F so your best bet is to just hold off for now. Google "android script tweaks" and edit your build.prop file for now. That, and use the V6 SuperCharger Script. Mine runs great with just those tweaks.
[Android General] daoliverio:
I've got V6 and its quick. I like it. Will edit my build.prop tomorrow with more tweaks. I really want to learn how to dev but don't have the time and would get too addicted to it.
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
It is addicting. I've been out of the loop for a while but back again. One tweak I recommend is the no boot animation. Boot time is cut down to a third of stock. If you need help just PM me. I'm always on here.
[Android General] D1358531:
I tried to install the V6 on my A2107A-F, but it didn't work. What steps did you follow? I tried using the tutorial here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1353786
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
The simplest way is this. Download the v6 script, the kernelizer script, the battery script, and the starter kit. Make sure they're in the root of the sd card. Then, install Script Manager from the Play Store. Run Startmeup.sh first. Let it install everything it needs. Then the v6 script, and the rest. Make sure you run them as root though.
[Android General] D1358531:
Did you find all the scripts here on XDA?
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
No, and to be honest, I don't remember the site I got them from. I can probably email them to you if you don't want to search.

[Android General] D1358531:
I tried running the StartMeUp.sh again this morning, but got Permission denied. Last time I ran it it didn't seem to finish the script...maybe that's the problem.
[Android General] annx10:
Sorry, but I don't understand exactly what is the problem? bluetooth is very limited for the environment :(

Bluetooth for this is neutered. Only thing I've been able to connect is a headset for a phone. Nothing else. Same devices connect to other android devices though.
[Android General] D1358531:
I just went to look in my /data folder and got permission denied...what's going on? I have it set to browse as root. Is there a way to reverse the V6 script? I have Rom Toolbox also, and still cannot get to the data folder like I used to. I'm thinking maybe this script messed up my tablet. :(
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
I'm not sure if the v6 script can be reversed easily. Reinstalling the rom is simple enough and if you did a backup in CWM after the install, it will be like nothing happened.
[Android General] D1358531:
I'll try that...if I can run the initial script, I'll take a screenshot to show you where it stops. Thanks!

A2107 Vodafone

Hello,

I have the Lenovo A2107 Vodafone 4GB version and i instaled all of the ROM's posted by Makbro on this link:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37409096&postcount=800 .Except for the A2107A-F Stock ROM, all the others worked for me with one problem which i hope to solve with your help.

The problem is that in settings-storage i have wrong details for the SD card and internal memory. I also can't copy any file on the SD card: no available space error". Any solution?

After instaling these ROM's I got the FM radio and voice calling feature which didn't work before. Also I opened up the tablet and it seems that the USB id pin from the microUSB connector is not connected at all to the MT6575 CPU and i think this is the reason why OTG cable don't work for me. Hope this information helps others.
[Android General] BazmanFoo:
I have the same model but for some reason Foxtrot ROM won't work for me. After bootscreen, I get a menu asking me to set my country code. If I select a code it times out, reboots and brings me back to this screen.

Does anyone know why this would be?
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
There are 2 files on the rom page for this tablet to fix that. You just have to choose internal or external on which you get.

---------- Post added at 12:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 PM ----------

I'm actually working on that right now for you. I'm cooking up a modified version that I "hope" fixes that issue. I'll upload it once I finish it.
[Android General] ssenemosewa:
The [expletive deleted] neutered bluetooth stack is one of the last problems I have with my A2107A-F! I'd love a solution if it can be implemented without replacing the entire ROM.

I've been able to get it to transfer files back and forth between my laptop and (sometimes, depending on the A2107A-F's mood) my cellphone via bluetooth. I can get many different headsets to pair with it, but audio never works with any of them. The Lenovo connects to the headset for a second or two and then disconnects again.
[Android General] BazmanFoo:
Great news! Thanks mate
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
Well, hopefully I can find a fix for it. I personally want the bluetooth fixed to use my PS3 controller with it. I've not even gotten it to work to transfer files yet. May be the dongle I'm using though. But once I get a rom finished I'll post a link to it. I'll be adding some tweaks to it to get rid of lag and speed up boot times.

Hi Shiloh, did you see the screenshot I posted? :)
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
Yes, I saw it. Just trying to figure out what script it is. Did it come from the Starter Kit or where? The v6 supercharger script is supposed to be automated other than a few questions.

---------- Post added at 03:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:27 PM ----------

It just hit me. That script is in the SuperCharger folder that's created after you install it. So you've got it installed.
[Android General] D1358531:
This is the 99SuperCharger.sh file that was created after running the StartMeUp.sh file. This is as far as I got with the StartMeUp.sh file as well.
[Android General] ShilohDaniel:
I see that now. Looks to me like the script to let you uninstall the SuperCharger. I'm working on the build.prop for the rom right now or I'd toy with it.

If anyone has any ideas for where I could host this rom let me know.
