This one doesn't work. Tried with mobileunc and sptools. Recovery gets corrupted. I've searched and searched but no decent reply to where we can find CWM Recovery for yoga 8" wifi only.

seond kk update

Hello, anybody have received the last update before the kk update? 89mb update? Anybody do the install? And the root still works? I have the original recovery but the tablet is rooted. How i proceed? Sorry for my poor English...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sak500:
You dont have to worry about anything other than losing the data on the tablet. Which btw you can back up using titanium backup. I crashed my B6000 tablet after flashing wrong recovery however thanks to russin lenovo forums am now having KK ROm (link at bottom of the page). HOwever you need to use chrome and translate teh page and then register to be able to download the files. Beware it's pretty slow and takes more than 2 hours to download. I was successful after 3rd attempt as during the 2 hours twice my net dropped connection and i lost the download.

Anyway you'll find all the ROMs available for yoga 8 there from 4.2 to 4.4. You can flash even a bricked tablet using sptools. Earlier by mistake I installed chinese rom which didn't have google and it was all in chinese untill i managed to change the language. But once i downloaded the WW edition which is international /english version, I flashed that vola it was just like one the tab came with. Then I rooted it with the chinese vroot method and it's working perfectly.

My only complaint is i can't find any recovery for it, tried 4 to 5 which were claimed to be for it and all screwed up the tablet in some form or the other. Another issue is i've installed / uninstalled many drivers of yoga but it still doesn't detect in MDKtools so can't make my own recovery which i had done in few mins for another OEM brand Intex OCTA. WHich probably has less support than lenovo however no decent person can provide any info about custom recovery. Many claim to have installed but those idiots can't be bothered to provide the help needed.

Problems installing TWRP

I had a b-6000 with kitkat rooted via vroot, working fine, installed TWRP via the google drive package (TWRP_Yoga_Tablet_8_B6000_Wi-Fi_S048), the adb worked but the script cant write on the partitions, so i manually did the dd commands, without problem (i know linux very well)

Result: the tablet now is not booting struck in the initial lenovo logo that fades away after some seconds

If i hold the 2 keys when booting , the boot menu appears but every options (recovery, fastboot and normal boot) leads to the fading lenovo logo (this time with a strange vertical bar or missing pixels on the e of lEnovo ) and fades away.

In fastboot mode the pc recognizes the device

i have this phone 1 year now and i had the same problem few days ago...im not a heavy user,so the phone usually lasted for 2 days of normal usage...but few days ago after i charged it, the phone lasted like 8-9 hours and Android OS was eating my battery 68%, keeping my phone awake all the time...

so i left the phone to completely dry up the battery until it shut down itself...then when i connected to the charger even more strange thing happened, the phone recognized that it is charging (as usual), but the screen was kinda blinking green lights all over the screen (there was no battery icon) and the phone started itself (i didnt even touch the power button)....after it started itself i shut it down and left it to charge up....after full charge i powered the phone and it is working normally for now....

so,i dont know if this gonna help you at all, but try leaving your phone to use all the battery until it shuts down itself and recharge it, after full charge power it up and see if it gets back to normal :p

Unless there is an issue in the camera software by the company there isnt any way or improving raw picture quality. There are many camera apps on the playstore which provide multiple filters and capturing modes. There are also photo editions that can improve the pictures taken by changing tones/contrast etc. The one by Aviary is decent. Just head on over to the Play Store and give them a look. Im referring to free ones ofc. If your willing to spend a few bucks then i would recommend Perfectly Clear. It comes with an inbuilt camera in the new version and is simply legendary for improving any picture with the click of a button. Works like an easy to use Photoshop. Do give it look ;)
