Hi guys. I made DualBootPatcher for lenovo a706 and a760 I'm looking for tester!
[Android General] firemax13:
Sorry but my phone is resting I will do my best to buy another a706 to test your software. hope you understand
[Android General] DS_katauri:
here on 4pda russian website is the newest build of LOs11 (useful for A706 with memory repartitioning) by Weritos (sorry,not posted here before,but tested a lot). At "Download" spoiler - google drive folder,so i am sure there won't be download errors.Trust me,it's stable enough and installation shouldn't have some issues. IDK if it is nessesary information here,but who knows.Peace :)

NB: Oh,gDrive folder to make life easier.

Help my lebovo a706 hardbrick.can anyone show hiw to unbrick this phone.i need the tool and the driver is so hard to find.my phone was total dead and it cannot detect the driver how to make this phone detect driver because this was total dead:(:confused:
[Android General] omkolte17:
I think it's time for you to move on. :good:

Because the world now runs on 4G technology which the lenovo doesn't support and the next factor is the battery and screen size.

Though I'll help you with your bricked device.

If you can access the fastboot mode or recovery then you are lucky but if you can't access them then that might be a problem because you need to rush to the service center.

Click here to get further instructions if your device is soft bricked.

Hello again guys. I've got mine yesterday and I'm very happy about it. Now, I'm ready for the serious stuff. The rooting. I've tried following the instructions. First you need to have fastboot and adb in my pc right? I've checked the link given to download the sdk-tools.zip. but it was faulty. any other link?

Just google for adb +fastboot and you'll get links. I'll see and post some links in the OP soon. :)

hey gr8techie and everyone. here I am stuck, the 3rd step. flashing the zip step. I got into "choose update from ADB" then it tells me to send the package that I want to apply to the device with "adb sideload <filename>"...

I type in the command like this

adb sideload lenovo_a706_root_buding.zip

and it says that it can't read that file. why is that? anyone have a solution?

[Android General] nelmini:
oh. it's okay now. I've succesfully rooted my phone using
[Android General] gr8techie:
Hi nelmini,

You have to copy the root zip file to your phone memory and then reboot into CWM recovery and choose install zip from SD card option and then select the zip you copied.

If you have a sd card then copy to it also just in case.

It should start flashing. After it is complete, simply reboot the phone or take out battery and put it in & then start phone again.

Hope you follow the steps right :)

By using the method posted above, i have installed the CWM (Not sure it is successfully installed or not). and i am not able to boot to Clockwork mode recovery. when i press power+vol up+vol down, it again takes me to android recovery mode. I dont why it happens.

Is there any method to check whether CWM is actually installed or not.

Truth is i had the same issue before then i realized i haven't really flashed cwm successfully. So what i did was boot to fastboot in adb and entered this command "fastboot -w". It wipes everything in there includin the stock recovery lenovo uses. Then after that you flash cwm. Please follow the steps in this tread o how to do it :)

Stock Rom reflashing

Hi. I tried reflashing to stock rom using the method on the first page but when i click SDUPDATE, it says no sdcard. but i have a sdcard connected to my phone. any idea on why this is happening?
[Android General] grayhat14:
Try to boot your CWM in your computer using adb and fastboot method... ::):):)

---------- Post added at 01:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 AM ----------

what is the extension file name of your rom? .qsb or .zip file?

if your rom is .qsb file, create 'sdfuse' folder (w/o quotations) in the root of your external sdcard then copy your stock rom in the sdfuse.

turn off your device then press (volume up + power) button within 3 - 5 seconds, the LENOVO logo will show

in the recovery mode, choose #4 or SD Update.

Note: If you flash your current rom in a stock rom, make sure that the roms are in the same version. ;)

Today, my a706 notified me a firmware update A706_ROW_S120_130821

but cannot update after reboot it say fail to install books.apk

my phone have rooted.

OTA is not possible on rooted phones, afaik. You have to manually download the new firmware and update likewise.

a706

just bought lenovo a706 and its on A706_ROW_S120_130821 firmware already from the time i bought it.

I followed the instruction and i cant make it work. when installing CWM i entered

a. Reboot into Bootloader mode. Use command:

Code: adb reboot bootloader

my phone reboot and was just stack in lenovo logo. waited more or less 15 mins and its still there. tried it 3 times and same results.. :(
[Android General] gr8techie:
Hey kurt003,

If u reached the lenovo logo then that means you are at the bootloader. Rest u have to run commands from ur PC. Also run > fastboot devices, and check if u get a serial id listing. Then simply flash the CWM and you are done. :)

but thnx guys for the help =D
[Android General] scuderialoki:
Cool bro! But a fair bit of warning. Framaroot does a temporary root. If you do a factory reset anytime soon it will disable your root and most often than not it will not allow you to root your phone again.

But please do enjoy the root! =D

Stock Recovery

I wanted to update my phone to newer firmware, but I was unable to do that. Seems like I have to install stock recovery to my phone.

Anybody has the stock recovery, or know how to install update (OTA) without reverting to stock recovery?
[Android General] gr8techie:
You have to manually update rather than OTA.

Follow instructions to do so.
[Android General] Rama Himura:
You mean via recovery? I have already tried that but failed. The message "Installation aborted" always appeared everytime I tried to update by choosing update.zip.
[Android General] gr8techie:
No! Not via recovery. You have to manually download the update file and then follow instructions for the stock rom update. You have to create sdfuse folder on sd card and unzip and copy the file in this folder then use it. Plz read the full instructions from the stock rom post.
[Android General] Rama Himura:
Yes I know about that procedure. But the latest firmware is not available in needrom.com as for now. So the only way I can get new firmware is from OTA.
