Downloads

Absolutely no downloads work on the K900 for me. Not on the play store, nor via a broswer. It just goes into the *starting download* animation and stays there for ages. Tried all the online fixes like clearing the app data for download manager, play store and google services framework and tried resetting the phone as well.
[Lenovo K900] Vertebro:
1. Is automatically updated on your phone? Automatically notify? (ie I do not need to mess with it)

If you stay on stock international rom, yes it will be updated. Otherwise the VIBE ROM isn't automatically updated and to change your firmware it is obviously a manual thing to do. But it can't really fail, it can only if you did something wrong.

2. Installation of (apk) for Android apps in each case as it works right?

Yes, play store is integrated in international roms that you will find here, and also in rooted versions of VIBE. But, like always, because it's a chinese phone (which doesn't have google included), you have to manually flash a play store compatible rom.

If I wasn't clear enough, ask whatever you want, I'll answer ;)

Update on Vibe rom :-

1. camera panorama is better than previous version it pans smoothly now without the need to stop 2s every time to capture. HD panaroma is getting better results.

2. phone sometimes no calling sound when calling someone, have to restart phone then its back to normal.

3. battery life still sucks

4. many nice interface and slick look makes this a more refined rom.

5. phone contacts still messy when numbers are in your ctc but doesn't show up as your ctc cause local callers normally doesn't have +80 etc. don't have this issue with other phones like Nexus, Samsung etc.

6. best of both worlds as we get playstore and lenovo store but too bad I can't read chinese to get the max out of that.

7. phone handsfree speaker works well not available in stock rom

8. bluetooth to carphone still buggy as calls comes in but no sound or disconnects back to phone but calling out is working.

9. option to show how many KB/s your phone is using live on top bar - great for ppl wanting to monitor their live network speed

Anyone know how can we do it manually?

Battery indicator is stuck

My battery indicator is stuck at 100%. It doesn't decrease as the phone discharges. I've tried resetting the phone, but to no avail.

Kindly help me out.
[Lenovo K900] MacGuy2006:
Thanks. I'll wait for the ROW version, since this seems to have too many issues.

Unfortunately this is likely my first and last Lenovo product, as the lack of support has totally turned me off the brand.

The phone is OK, but I get constant outgoing call drop issues, plus it's really a bit too big for my taste.

If they update it to 4.4 I might change my opinion, but not holding my breath.
[Lenovo K900] mydroidfren:
the Vibe version camera seems to like higher ISO by default hence very grainy photos.

if you use manual setting put to 100 or 200 then photos are nicer.

its really a waste as this phone has a great camera & lens its just not well optimised to get the max out of it.

I've been getting great photos with manual setup and HDR but auto mode really bad.

you can try to reflash the rooted vibe rom, and dont update SU again. As far as i remember reflashing it wont cause data lost. Correct me if i m wrong, not 100% sure.

[Lenovo K900] mac231us:
you have to believe this...as it failed twice on flash (i detailed what i remembered of the issue in an old post)...if only i had put the rom file not inside a folder inside sdfuse directory...i could not flash from sdfuse as file could not be found and had already erased data and system from fastboot...so only could do MFT...well, it is basically a black screen with cold stainless steel since Oct. 11...no response NADA...anyway moved to Lg optimus g pro as nothing i could do..was thinking of sending to a colleague based in China but not got around to doing it (repair at Lenovo)

This is ROW (international) ROM, not VIBE ROM. If you want install Vibe ROM, follow my instructoins above.

If you want install ROW ROM, copy all files to SDFUSE in phone and flash via Droidboot- sdupdate.

:good: thumbs up to qubex for his effort, yesterday I'm also update VIBE via OTA, try using provided system.img but it going into infinite boot loop.

this is the second time I've fix rom using MFT and I must agree with qubex that it is quite impossible to brick android phone, well at least for me.

I notice that sometimes usb connection is quite sensitive that it cannot be moved even a bit and it will cause like reconnecting that's why I can see many people here posting a failure when doing MFT flash of thing. Frankly I never do MFT correctly, just blindly install all the driver and change the id kind settings and it works like a charm...:D:D
[Lenovo K900] QuBeX:
data will not be lost (it is always recommended to wipe all but it is not mandatory), apps will be lost because you are flashing a hole new ROM not an update, notice that the OTA is 800mb
