is there any other way to bring original firmware back, i scare phone will not work again, all i wanted is to have android market and gmail.

but now i lost my phone completely.

i have downloaded update.zip file, and followed the way you said, but as i said before, dalkvin cach cannot delete, and after reboot, lenovo.forum.ru, wiriting is gone, but this time, after lenovo writing comes up later screen become dark, and LENOVO FOR THOSE WHO DO, comes up, and screen stuck with it, nothing happens. so the phone cannot start ,

there is a button factory reset in TWR, what happens if factory resets?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] musnebi:
hi, phone is working but i think there are some issues with this ROM,

1. radio is not working without earset, before it was working

2. gmail and hotmail are not synronizing as push , even though i choosed push mail, they work only manually sycronizing.

the rest so far look okey.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Manaro:
This Rom is an orig. Rom and not a custom Rom , it has released bevor a week , i advice u to make hard reset ,through Setting and then u will have surley no problem more !
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mass.w:
WRONG

because you enter META MODE instead of RECOVERY MODE.

You need maybe try few times to get it right:

1. pull battery for few secs and instert it back.

2.push power button for about 3sec after which you need quickly push two volume buttons at once (now you have three buttons pushed) and release power button as soon as lenovo logo appears (still holding both volume buttons)

3.if you cant get succeed you need to reinsert battery again (important)

Hello,

Can someone make an english tutorial regarding on rooting for this device?

Also, my stock recovery is in chinese and have no idea what it means.

Current system is p770_row_s110_130204.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Discotex79:
Hi all,

i bought this amazing phone from China.

Sadly i'm not so good in rooting phones because this is my first phone i'm rooting.

I've tried many roms until yesterday, but maybe i did it something wrong.

I didn't brick the phone, but now i have 2 errors.

The first one is the imei error, but i found the way to resolve it generating the MP0B_001 file to put in the NVRAM folder.

The second one is that i see in the Wlan available list a ghost net called "NVRAM WARNING: ERR = 0x10".

I search through the internet, it's mentioned in many places but there is not a solution.

Maybe i delete the Nvram folder in a flash tool procedure (i format the whole phone with sp flastool) and now the phone is missing some data.

I blame it myself for this but i lack some experience in flashing a phone.

Above all now every time i flash the phone the procedure it will delete the imei, also if i don't format the phone, before yesterday this wasn't happening.

I don't know what to do, so i'm asking here for an help.

Thank you very much to all.

flash again the stock rom
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Discotex79:
I've tried yet. But it worth it try again.

Maybe it's better to flash the original chinese rom (i've also tried with stock rom but it was the one for the russian market with all english programs).

I found that Wifi don't work now, i thought it worked because i see "connected" status in the net list, but now i'm trying to go on internet and don't work.

Maybe it's a bigger problem than i expected.

---------- Post added at 06:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 PM ----------

Flashed Chinese ROM S120, i used Sp Flashtool configuring it just like in the instructions.

I used the "Firmware/Upgrade" button.

But the problem is still the same, IMEI erased again and error in the Wlan list.

That's not a good thing :(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Discotex79:
Maybe i need a copy of the original data/nvram folder which i had to copy on the phone.

Sadly i didn't made a backup of that folder, so the one which is now on the phone misses some files that can be useful for the phone.

root p770

I followed all instructions i found in this thread but i keep on getting stucked in flashtools. Once i sellect scatter file and click download, nothing happens and flashtools keeps on searching...

the auto root via TWRP mentioned in this thread also didnt work for me

Does someone have an idea what possibly i am doing wrong?

EDIT:

i succesfully installed cwm recovery & rooted this phone using flashtools and the "recovery + root" from the russian lenovo forum. it is important to switch of phone, take out battery and put back battery before connecting phone to pc and after click download & yes in flashtools..

I made a lil walkthrough but cant post links on forum as yet...

Hello,

I thought I had ticked all the boxes... and made all the right moves.. But I think i have done something very stupid..

I rooted my Lenovo P770 (world version) using framaroot and then flashed TWRP using Mobileuncle MTK tools.... everything worked like a charm. I then flashed "Supercopy Note 3" from needrom.com.. TWRP said it was successful. After reboot the phone gets stuck on the Samsung logo with the "IMO Miracle.." screen.

Tried using SP Flash tool and all that is happening is still says "Searching" for the phone... never goes beyond that..

Can someone tell me how to boot into recovery mode as I would really like that and then flash a different ROM? I tried all the combinations "power + vol up".... "power + vol down" and "power+vol up+vol down".... nothing works.... it boots into the samsung "S" screen and then just keeps roving for hours and hours till the battery drains out.

Hi,

I bought New Xperia P and i upgraded it with 4.0.4 latest frimware,I tried so many Tutorials for root but i didnt get root access to my phone so i found new method for rooting.

Its easy just follow the below steps:cowboy:

Note: This method is for 6.1.1.B.1.54 update

1. Download Xperia P LT22_6.1.B.0.599_Kernel.zip file attached below.

2. Flash .559 kernel via Flashtool. and start your device (Enable Usb debugging Mode)

3. Download Root with Restore by Bin4ry v18 attached below.

4. Extract it using 7zip

5. Double click the RunMe.bat and follow instructions!

(Xperia phones = Normal mode)

6. Download Xperia P LT22_6.1.1.B.1.54_Kernel.zip file attached below.

7. Flash .54 kernel via Flashtool.

8. Reboot,check for superuser app & enjoy.

Thanks man i rooted my device with ease by ur steps ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] helkaluin:
...but the steps you detailed are *exactly* downgrading the kernel, rooting that, and then flashing the new kernel back—pretty much the very steps everyone would have done since the .54 update. How is this 'Without Downgrade'?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] vikramam:
For some rooting methods, u have to downgrade to 2.3 so i mentioned 'Without Downgrade'

Could you tell me why we had to flash our kernel first to ensure a perfect root....as to the methods mentioned on different threads they say to root the phone first and later flash the ROM or kernel??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alroid:
when you flash a ROM by flashtool and default confs your root access will be lost, and about this methot: bcz older kernels are rootable and newer not.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfetaz:
I had the Spectre Tempured Glass screen protector on my S3, until I dropped it twice and the Spectre broke. Shortly after that I dropped my S3 again and the Screen broke. I got my insurance replacement and another Spectre, and dropped my phone again and the Spectre got a hairline crack. I am trying to save money and don't want to keep buying more expensive screen protectors if I don't have to. If I got more common screen protectors like Zagg or Skinomi will it help prevent the S3 screen from cracking as well or close to tempured glass protectors? Or am I better off to keep buying tempured glass so I dont have to risk another insurance replacement? I do have the Seidio Active extended case but I think each time I dropped my phone the case was off. My only complaint of softer screen protectors is the mushy feeling, while I love the glass feeling, but don't want to spend extra money if I don't really have to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndrewH05:
Your best bet would be stop dropping your phone. I don't use a case and up until this moment I've never dropped it.

And to answer your question, I do believe the screen protector may have been the reason your screen didn't crack the first two times.

That's for unsigned apk.

This is a re-signed apk, can be installed on unrooted stock ROM or rooted ROM.
[HTC Desire X] nlooooo:
Still nothing. Manual is on point, it needs to be put on system partition.
[HTC Desire X] ckpv5:
This was downloaded from HTC HUB, so if it get installed after resigned, and you can't see the widget in the widget list, my guess is it may not work for Sense 4.1 lite.

I decompiled the APK, removed the shared uid part, compiled it, pushed it to /system/app and the widget didn't show up. I signed it with my own certificate, pushed it to /system/app and still no luck.
[HTC Desire X] The Android Manual:
Use a flashable zip :)

Use CWM because the Desire X does not allow you to touch the System Partition using a ROOT explorer even with Root Explorer :P
[HTC Desire X] nlooooo:
There's an app called Aroma File Manager made by Amarullz, it is made to be used from recovery as a flashable zip, you just start it like you flash a zip from sd card. Maybe that can be used if there's a problem making flashable zip.
[HTC Desire X] therbom:
Sorry, didn't mention it but I used ADB in recovery. I think I've gotten used to it, so I don't say it anymore.

I personally hate flashable ZIPs, I'd rather do it manually.
[HTC Desire X] ayyu3m:
What about the version code and version name in AndroidManifest.xml

Is this the widget you guys are looking for? (left)
