I updated the ROM from sdfuse method

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 AM ----------

I've already done that...problem was in the lenovo launcher after installing nova...performance is good but i cant tell bout the battery life coz ive updated this rom few hours ago anyways i wanted to ask about the helium script..i tried to install that script but whenever i copied that script in internel storage after reboot it just gets disappered...:(

[Lenovo K900] Chris_K900:
Turn it in ... sounds like h/w failure to me. You could always try to reflash it via MFT, though. Pick a ROM you like, reflash the phone and see how it goes. I doubt it´ll bring your screen back on, but who knows. As the phone is under warranty I would refrain from disassembling it.
[Lenovo K900] Samyk900:
Can anyone tell the performance difference between Smanager script and CPU controls like "no frill CPU control"? I am asking this particular question due to the fact that I experience no lag whenever I use No frill CPU control on "performance" mode but device becomes really hot but when I use Smanager device performs well and device does not become that hot... Any of you experienced this or wat?

Thanks for the VIBE news, hope they fix the few bugs still around. Also hope that they update the international ROM as often as they do the Chinese one.

I've been getting constant "Contact Manager Unexpectedly Quit" errors lately, hate the idea of resetting....
[Lenovo K900] bobtiang:
hi guys, i had the "press any volume key to switch screen" option ON.

but it doesn't works intermittently, no matter up or down key.. it's just won't wake up screen until i press the power button.

what do you guys suggest? it's just a 3 days phone and nothing fancy had been done, only change wallpaper.

should i factory reset? or possible h/w button failure? sigh....

Last time I will buy anything with a nonremovable battery...

well think my K900 has just gone kaput. It does not respond nothing indicates it is even charging. at least with a removable battery one has options. I dont understand this idiotic trend. My Samsung laptop and Sony laptops have the same thing (former also ran into issues which was related to battery non removable)

I think something was up with phone as past few days it would not charge easily..sometimes just sit not charging then I would connect reconnect and it would charge. Despite using different cables.

Anyway eyeing the HTC OneMax or even the Nokia Phablet Win8 but think those are nonremovable batteries as well. Compared to this my Note 2 was a lot a better which I gave away to my nephew. anyway...if my phone does not come back on...I am off (this board). Good luck all and thanks everyone!

EDIT HTC onemax and lgoptimus g pro both have removable batteries. May get the lg tomorrow and be done with it.

Hey... I had the same exact problem you have right now few weeks ago... I ended with no result and I brought it back to the service center ... as I guested that it was not software problem since if it had been then the manufacturing flash would have done the job to fix it...

It was the camera hardware problems.. dont worry dude just go to the service center and vlaim for your warranty... but before you do that you could read this thread search for cannot connect to the camera problem and there are some suggestion you could try which I have done before... regards

hi unfortunately not any update:(
[Lenovo K900] Trancexplant:
A couple of questions that hopefully someone here can answer.

I've flashed a number of phones successfully in the past, but somehow managed to brick my K900 using the MFT method -- it got completely stuck in USB mode. Lenovo repaired it and now I'd like to try to get the international ROM on it via the sdupdate method. However, I'm a little skittish about trying to flash a phone that's already been bricked once.

So...1) Do you think it's safe to try to flash this phone again? Lenovo said the problem was purely software related, but I have no idea what tests they ran to determine this. And 2) if so, are there any extra precautions I should take? (i.e. extra steps to make the process reversible, perhaps?)

I'm all for giving it another go. But I'm also willing to just sell it and buy another one if those with more expertise than me deem the risk to be too high. So I greatly appreciate any input on the matter.
[Lenovo K900] mac231us:
Thanks. Where did you get it repaired? in the U.S.? I would like to put mine in for repair. How did they handle it? I mean did they charge you for it?
[Lenovo K900] :
If you bricked it with the MFT, you should've been able to un-brick it with the MFT - to my understanding, it's the exact same .exe that Lenovo engineers themselves use to flash stuff on the phones. If it doesn't work, there's either a hardware or Windows USB driver failure somewhere along the chain. MFT is about the only precaution you can have, since it's the only way to communicate with an inoperable Lenovo K900.

That said, the sdupdate method should be slightly more reliable than MFT, since you don't have to worry about USB bus or driver issues, only that the files you're trying to flash are legit.
[Lenovo K900] prog2:
I do not know what you have been told in Lenovo, I can only say one thing, it is not possible to programmatically turn K900 in brick.

How to UNBRICK Lenovo K900 or restore firmware your phone manually.

To do this, we will need:

1) xFSTK v. 1.3.6

2) iSoC USB Driver

3) firmware files for the most needed. FwDnx, OsDnX, IFWI, OS image (Pos.bin)

4) adb and fastboot from the Android SDK (available from the folder with the MFT)

Create a new folder in the root of drive c: \ (for example: \fwfiles) and copy files to it to microcodes and adb and fastboot file package (I took from the folder with the MFT)

Run xFSTK and see two fields, "Firmware" and "Operating system".

Insert the files:

1. FW Dnx

2. IFWI

3. OsDnx

4. Os Image (pos.bin)

Turn off the phone.

Connect powered off phone to your PC and click on the "Begin Download", the firmware will start and write the log (in the settings to better enable the DEBUG Log).

Firmware is completed in two stages, first stitched Firmware (FwDnx and IFWI), then reboot the Operating system and firmware (OsDnx and Os image), this is all done automatically.

Then the phone will reboot, you will see the sign "USB". IT IS IMPORTANT! Do not disconnect the phone from the PC.

Run cmd, enter the working directory "cd c:\fwfiles" with adb and fastboot (remember they must be in the same folder as the files for the firmware).

And next comes the fun part:) write in cmd

1. "fastboot erase factory"

2. "fastboot erase cache"

3. "fastboot erase config"

4. "fastboot erase system"

Get totally "Virgin" phone.

Then begin to Flash. Let's start with the radio module, write: "fastboot flash radio radio_firmware_6360.bin"

Then tie the system: "fastboot flash system system.img.gz"

Then sew the fastbut: "fastboot fastboot flash droidboot.img"

Then the recovery: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

And the last is the kernel: "fastboot flash boot boot.bin"

Logo and you can not Flash softkey.

Next, write: "fastboot reboot" after which the phone will reboot and will start in normal mode.

Works 100%, he did so more than once. But you do so at your own risk and I am not responsible for your actions.

Sorry for my bad translation!

iSoC USB Driver

Adb and Fastboot Files

it's the problem of your mainboard, mine even bricked during uninstalling an APP, no soft or hard way could light the screen, Lenovo changed the mainboard to fix it.(as yours is working well, they probably changed the mainboard without tell you)
[Lenovo K900] mydroidfren:
yah sdfuse is about the easiest way to flash the phone i did so many times its kinda boring now. by the say tried 927 update its filled with more bloatware & the processor was dam hot. supercamera update also is bad it heats up the screen and added weibo as cloud storage. back to 903 now its way cooler & less battery eater.

what does it meant by the updated source code?

is it a rom that people can flash it? sorry im new with lenovo :)

It was repaired in China. The vendor, ibuygou, arranged for the work to be done by Lenovo and handled everything on that end. I just had to send it to ibuygou and wait for them to send it back when the phone was back in their hands. The cost wasn't bad at all - $60. But, of course, I also had to pay for shipping in both directions (about $100 total) and wait about 6 weeks.

---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------

Interesting. The phone got stuck in USB mode at the point in the process when the MFT had already deleted the existing ROM but hadn't yet installed the new one, basically leaving the phone blank and waiting for commands. No combination of computers and driver reinstallations could get it to go past that point either. So maybe there was some sort of hardware fault.

Vodafone UK

Hi everyone,

I received my new Lenovo K900 today and it really is an impressive machine. I've managed to root and get the Google Play working fine BUT there seems to be a problem with my SIM card. I'm here in the UK on the Vodafone network - I popped into a vodafone store to get a micro SIM card for this phone, but since I put it in and booted up, the phone won't recognise it saying "SIM card unavailable" - does this mean this phone is not compatible with my network or is there a problem with the SIM? On a general note, is there a list of compatible network providers in the UK?

Thanks.
[Lenovo K900] MacGuy2006:
Hm, has anyone purchased this phone from JD.com in China? If so, has anyone received it?

I placed an order on May 20, paid for expedited shipping to the US and so far it doesn't even look like they've even shipped it. I say "doesn't even look like" because I've enquired twice and both times I got some nonsensical response saying that "the Air Transport Association has strict regulation for the battery" so my order has been delayed.

Thanks for your reply. Sounds like you're in the United States. I'm in England and from my research Vodafone uses 900 mhz for GSM and 2100 mhz for 3G - the Lenovo K900 is apparently compatible with this so I'm baffled as to why it won't recognise the sim card... If there are any UK users out there who have successfully got the phone to work on a UK network it would be good to hear from you...
