[Lenovo P780] Uritam:
Hello,

I bought a Lenovo P780 some days ago from china.

The phone came with many pre-installed Chinese apps that simply annoyed me, moreover I kept getting email has stopped, settings has stopped error messages. :mad: It was running on a VIBE firmware.

I checked online on how to Flash the phone to international version and downloaded some ROMs to do the flashing.

I managed to get the Flashing done, with this ROM, P780_ROW_S110_130629, but afterwards the Phone was completely unusable.

The problems are as follows,

1. The Phone does not boot up at all after pressing the power key, nothing on screen! :mad:

2. Pressing the power and volume keys shows nothing! :mad:

3. when plugged to the computer, i get the USB device not recognized error message! (I have all the necessary drivers installed)

The computer only see the phone as follows, Alcatel Single RNDIS Interface in the USB Device not Recognized window. :mad::mad::mad:

4. The computer keeps playing the plugged in devices sounds, plugged sound the followed by unplugged sound, repeatedly, and that is when the phone is still connected.

It´s only later I found some tip saying that one cannot flash a device produced 03.2014 and later with the ROM I used. Mine happens to be such a device Prod. Date 09.03.2014! :eek:

I have read through some almost similar problems but have not encountered my specific problem.

I am hoping to have someone who knows a workaround share with me how to get the phone back up running. I will highly appreciate your Help.
[Lenovo P780] Uritam:
Solution Found!

Found solution :laugh:

1. Restored the comp to 3 days ago, before installation of any drivers

2. Downloaded and installed this driver, http://www.mediafire.com/download/lbdo0sglhdhrje9/MTK+Divers.rar

3. Downloaded my ROM here, used this one, P780_S123_ROW_131231

http://www.needrom.com/mobile/lenovo-p780-2/

4. I downloaded a newer version of Flashtools from this forum,

5. I downloaded this preloader,

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2744499&d=1400125492

6. I prepared the files for flashing as usual, (USB speed set to „do not switch speed“), changed the preloader´s location to the one I downloaded, (Trying to flash with the one in the ROM gave an error)

7. I removed the Phone´s back cover, plugged the usb cable to the phone, and holding down the reset button, connected the usb cable to the computer

8. Then released the reset buton and VOILA!, the flashing began :fingers-crossed: and ran without any errors.:laugh:

9. The greatest moment was to see the phone reboot fully after this. :victory:

After rebooting and connecting to the internet, I upgraded the FW and everything is running smooth.

I liked the preinstalled VIBE ROM, only that it had some flows here n there, plus the preinstalled Chinese apps annoyed me! I am now getting used to the original P780´s ROM.

Anyone who lands in my previous mess,- Flashing with wrong ROM and cannot get Phone to boot up, or get it recognized by PC, can try out my solution, of-course at YOUR OWN RISK!

PS, Always take time to inform yourself fully before performing this task, it will save you some Headaches! ;)

Happy flashing :)
[Lenovo P780] casaben:
So you can confirm that the P780_S123_ROW_131231 version works on a Chinese model ?

No problems with bad signal, SIM not detected and so on ? I'm trying to figure out if it is safe to go ROW.

And as I see your steps, it would also be an option to remove the drivers again I think.

For me, it worked by simply plugging the device into a different port, and then I could install the drivers (as a regular Mediatek USB device, not as the Preloader device).
[Lenovo P780] Uritam:
......confirm?.......

I can confirm with my device, I bought it directly from China and as I mentioned earlier, it had several Chinese apps that really annoyed me. I was really stressed up trying to configure what to do. But after reading several forums and stitching the different opinions together, I managed to do what I did earlier on today and everything is working out fine.

I had not done any backup of IMEI and co before flashing my phone yesterday, and that worried me the more. But after re-flashing it with the above ROM, everything got back together and even the IMEI was found automatically without further hustles.

Please do some more reading before trying my steps, my tryout worked good with my Phone, cannot tell whether it will with yours!

Saying this coz am not really sure whether the date written at the bottom of the Accu. represents the phone´s production date! ;)
[Lenovo P780] casaben:
Well pretty sure the unbricking works, you got the preloader from my post :)

I'm now testing with VIBE 1.5 (KitKat), pretty good (almost not Chinese there) but some battery issues. Next step is to find out if I can get the 3G 900Mhz band to work.

Not sure if I'm going to switch to ROW, don't see any reason now.

Thanks for the feedback!
[Lenovo P780] Uritam:
Sure it worked out just fine. Didn´t notice you were the same person with almost the same problem in the post with the preloader. :)

I will be checking out this pages to see how the Kitkat versin goes. Am am curious just how it will be.

Have a great week!
[Lenovo P780] siv4oo:
Thank you, you saved me!

I have bricked my lenovo p780 while trying to change the rom.

It was shipped from china with Vibe rom, I tried to install S113 rom and the phone went dead.

I have followed your guide and it worked. The phone is working!!!!

Edit: Just to add some more details in case some one else is having the same issue.

I made it with windows 8.1, drivers from this post, and S123 Row rom.

Then the firmware had 5 or 6 updates to 4.4.2 Kit Kat.

I have 2 more to go.... Total of 3 phones. Will update if any changes are found.

Also I will keep the software in case some of the links does not work or the code can't be found.
[Lenovo P780] harvykevin:
i dont understand the part where you hold the reset button and release it.

when did you install the drivers cuz im having the same problem . i already opened my phone and coudlnt find the said button not the same lenovo though i have a lenovo a360t with same problem , the pc do not recognize mtk port but the alcatel single thing . pleaseeee hellp . im so glad i found this . thank you sir.
[Lenovo P780] Suvam Mondal:
But you said your pc was not recognizing your phone. Then how did you flashed the rom with sp flash tool because it requires connecting the phone to the pc via usb cable. How did you solved it ? I haved bricked my phone. Its not turning on or charging in off mode either..help :crying:
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
What did you done?

How the phone "died"?

Bad flash?
[Lenovo P780] Suvam Mondal:
Solved :)

Dont know how the SP Flash tool flashed the firmware even after the pc was showing could not recognize device :P

[Lenovo P780] Ashaman__:
I know this is a very old thread, but, I was fixing up a P780 for a friend (he was constantly getting gapps.com stopped working and such) so I flashed some (stock?, Lenovo_P780_S115_MT6589_20130807) rom I found via SP Flash tool. It worked fine. So the next thing I was supposed to do was write IMEIs back, and for the life of me, i couldn't get that to work ( i would always get to "start searching kernel com port and handshake", and after that would get something like enter AP meta mode fail default, or something like that) so I started looking for alternatives, and found that one of the easiest ways is to root the phone, and install mobile uncle or MTK tools or whatever, anyway, I download twrp, flashed it using SP Flash Tool, and now the phone won't turn on, can't be detected by the Flash tool, it is in a way detected by windows (Unknown USB Device, Device descriptor Request failed), although it sort of goes on an off. LED lights up when connected to a charger or PC via USB
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirfir:
Hi! ive been browsing the net for almost 2 days looking for a solution to this problem. the other night, i did a factory reset on my PANTECH FLEX OS 4.1.2 non-rooted. Wifi was working fine before that. after the reset, wifi would now only show "turning wifi on" whenever i turn it on. i've seen threads regarding this but none with the Flex. PLEASE HELP AS IM REALLY DESPERATE :(

I've done factory resets, hard resets airplane mode tinkering and the like butthey dont work. i've been reading that one effective solution would be too flash the wifi in my device but i would need to root it. is there any other way to fix the wifi again without rooting it yet? i was thinking of doing a downgrade to ICS to try and fix the wifi but im not sure if that would work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirfir:
UPDATE: I just found out that the phone was rooted in the first place, assuming that superSU is only installed if a phone is rooted. This was just given to me so i had no idea that it was rooted :( anyway i checked to see if the phone is still rooted by running root checker basic and it says that it doesnt have root access anymore. Did i just un-root the phone? and how do i get back my wifi? :(

[Motorola Atrix HD] mauchito:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2619489

It's good, but there are better ROMs. Also, it does have some parts on chinese.
[Motorola Atrix HD] lwg45714:
I have been using Mokee for my daily driver for close to 2 months. It is by FAR imo the best rom out there and ive used them ALL. I have had zero fcs and yet to find a bug. Plus my signal is not affected as it is with most other roms, plus its one of the few I get LTE with. The few others I am able to get LTE with constantly switches between H+(around 4-7mbps) to LTE(12-30mbps) with Mokee my LTE does not drop below 18mbps. People make it seem as if part of the rom is chinese or something and that is not true at all. There are 4 apps that are included that are chinese. I simply use titanium backup to uninstall them and it causes no issues at all. I use mokee with arrrghhhs any kernel and use inverted 4.4.2 Gapps I found a while back. I highly recommend you give it a go! I use the weekly release not the nightlies. If you do use it you must revert to the stock kernel before upgrading via OTA. Hope you give it a shot dont think you will regret it.

I have an 8125 and just started using the MMS composer yesterday and realized it is not a WM5 program but something left over for 2003se. No use of the soft buttons, for menus or features, which isn't very nice. It would be nice to not have to use the sylus at all when composing an MMS. My version is 3.0.7.22 is there a newer WM5 friendly version out at all?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Holmes.Sherlock:
I rooted my Xperia - L successfully using the RootKit method. But, I am not happy with myself in the sense that just by going through the code, I did not really understand how the developer exploited CVE 2013-6282 bug to achieve root. I don't have any prior experience in Linux kernel development. As a side note, I could set up NDK and recompile the exploit successfully for ARM platform. Please guide me with appropriate pointers so that I can understand the code completely. What information do I need to have? Where should I start? Do I need to have driver development on *NIX?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] combat2k:
Hello my friends,

for some couple of weeks I've noticed some nasty screen bleed as seen in attached pics, bleed enhanced mostly when WiFi is used, and decreased but still there when WiFi is off...

D802 SEA model + 4.4.2 STOCK.

Any ideas? Should this be because a defect screen batch or something else?

Thanks in advance.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LenAsh:
That isn't what screen bleed is.

However, you have a display hardware issue and need to return the phone under warranty.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] combat2k:
Well, yeah, isn't the exact definition :-| but the results are kind of the same...

it's a screen bleed like or screen burn, but ... it's possible to be because of WiFi overheating?

I'll return it to my seller hopefully for a hardware replacement.. I'll let you know.

Anyone else experiencing the same behaviour?

Tks.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Norside:
No. This is a hardware issue, and you should get a new one. Especially of you haven't rooted it or flashed any roms yet!

Hello;

I'm very new to this forum. I'm thinking about purchasing a phone to use with qwest wireless and I'm wondering what is the *best supported* phone availible for my wireless phone provider? I would like to run gpe or opie and take calls/place calls and use the wireless adapter (if supported). Based on what I've read so far in the forums, it appears that the Blueangel is the best supported? Is this true? Currently, qwest is offering the HTC PPC-6700 (Apache?) model. How well does this phone work compared to the blueangel model? Any links/URLs would be much appreciated.

Thanks

hi guys,

I'm a complete noob to all this but i have read through the q and a section and the noob guide to rooting.

I am running 4.3 on a 19305 and attempted to flash with odin 3.09.

i first tried flashing with CF-Auto-Root-m3-m3zh-gti9305.tar

and later recovery-cwmtouch-6.0.4.7-i9305

both times ive got the pass message on odin but when i check root status with root checker it says no access.

since i tried to flash i now get what i think are Knox alerts telling me its blocking things that are trying to access root or something.

i've tried copying supersu on to my sd card and installing from there and that hasn't helped.

If i put my phone in to download mode now this is what i see,

Odin mode

Product name GT-19305

Custom Binary Download: yes (6 count)

Current Binary: custom

Knox warranty void: 1

Can anyone tell me what to try next

thanks guys
