It's called soft brick.Try flashing the stock rom A706_ROW

---------- Post added at 11:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 PM ----------

is there any ROM for A706 using 4.4?
[Android General] Naweed Reza:
Clarify some questions for me please :)

Hi, I am planning to root my Lenovo (you can see the firmware version on my signature) as well but i just have some questions I want you to clarify for me

If i were to root using the CWM method, would i lose all my data I have currently on the phone? ie: messages, contacts, apps, app data &etc.

Also, IF there was an OTA update from Lenovo and I update, would it remove my root. IF it removes my root, will I be able to root the phone back using the same method?

Hoping for a reply :)

[Android General] nelmini:
Re-check with the dev if the build does support default video recording.

I used to own Mini 2 working on CM10. Even after couple of updates, they still did not get the default camera working. I'm assuming this is the same case?

My solution is to install an app that have the video recording function. Try if it works.

Help in removing superuser without root on Lenovo A706

So the story goes, I rooted my phone using Framaroot 1.8.1 and yes it was rooted successfully. Recently I updated my phone to version A706ROW_1_S_2_001_0018_130705, and because of this my phone became unrooted but still had superuser installed. I would like to re-root my phone using Framaroot again but it cannot be rooted due to superuser. I had no luck in other threads as I am new to the android world that even simple terms, I couldn't comprehend. I would like to ask a clear and brief guide/ explanation to how my unrooted phone with superuser's presence be removed completely. Thank you in advance, Please.

If you did everthing right you should be able to boot to CWM Recovery on your Lenovo A706.

Upgraded Lenovo A706 to kitkat version

Discover how to root Lenovo A706 and install Android 4.4 KitKat from here. Here are the download links of the files you want to update Lenovo A706 to Android 4.4 KitKat. Just before beginning to upgrade your Lenovo A706 to Android 4.4 KitKat don’t forget to backup your information, as contacts, text messages and the apps installed from Google Play Store who maybe lost when the installation finishes. Now let’s see how to update Lenovo A706 to Android 4.4 KitKat :

1. Install the ROM Manager on your Lenovo A706. Get it from Google Play Store, then install the clockwork mod recovery.

2. Connect your Lenovo A706 to your PC employing the USB information cable. Copy the “ROM.zip” file you downloaded to the SD memory card.

3. Restart your device in the recovery mode using ROM Manager. As soon as in Recovery Mode, go to ROM Manager and select backup / restore to back-up your information.

4. From the Recovery Menu do a total data erase (including Delvik Cache). When completed, go back to Recovery Principal Menu and choose Flash ROM from SD Card. Navigate the location you copied the ”ROM.zip” file and follow the directions for installing Android 4.4 KitKat on your Lenovo A706. As soon as the installation is over, just reboot your Lenovo A706 device, and here you go, you’ve just upgraded it to the new Android 4.4 KitKat.

Note: Here Is Link To Download the ROM

The ROM File size is 128 MB, so I split the file into 3 parts :

ROM Part 1 : http://goo.gl/7pyL97

ROM Part 2 : http://goo.gl/ffHU2x

ROM Part 3 : http://goo.gl/l1zKh5

To combine 3 parts files above into 1 file just use WINRAR, then extract the files into ZIP format.

If any problem with the ROM, maybe because the ROM have corrupted during the download process, you can try to re-download the ROM.

I always confused about initial charge of new battery.

in the stock ROM, lenovo has added an option to switch storage. you can select the external SD card as your primary storage and use the internal 2 GB memory as your external memory.
[Android General] gr8techie:
Hi Bronchos,

it is generally recommended that when you have a new battery, you need to run 2-3 full cycle charging. A full cycle charge is to fully charge the battery and then discharge it until it reaches any value between 10-20 %. Then you recharge it. Other than this, you can charge your battery normally.
[Android General] putrasattvika:
Do anyone know how to disable lenovo's built-in sms app? I want to use third party sms app, and I received double messages.
[Android General] gr8techie:
i believe that the built-in app will still receive any messages (SMS or texts). All you can do is use the third-party app as a client. Also, the SMS app for lenovo is built integrated with the dialer.

Possible solution:

1. Use a third-party dialer (like Dialer One etc) as the default app for calls

2. Use your SMS client as the default app for the SMSes/texts.

Share your experience with all of us.
