Convert CN to ROW

Hello!

I am very new on this and I am a littlebit affraid to brick my phone. I have a china version of S820 with VIBEROM_V1.0_1340_3_ST_S820 rom (unrooted) and I would like to have the ROW version to get the latest updates. I missed the info from your post that does the phone has to be rooted before converting from CN to ROW? Sorry for the basic question but it is not clear for me.

Ps: none of the rooting tool worked on this current... khm... "nice" version (Framaroot, kingroot, etc....), probably those are only for ROW version.

Thanks for your help!

Problem with bootloader, fastboot, recovery menu

Hello everyone.

I am trying to get into the bootloader, so i will be able to use fastboot commands.

Prior to post here i made a thread in the [HELP THREAD] but unfortunately since the person that tried to help me did not had this device, he couldn’t help me, thus i’m posting here

So, first i tried to get into the bootloader by pressing the physical keys:

if power button and both volume keys are pressed i get into Android System Recovery(3e).

if power button and volume down key are pressed i get into meta mode.

if power button and volume up key are pressed i get into factory mode, which is entirly in chinese.

in all 3 occations, fastboot devices command did not reply anything….

Now the device is recognized by adb (i made the udev rule for it), all commands are working as should except one.

all except one: “adb reboot-bootloader” or “adb reboot bootloader” or “adb reboot fastboot” do not do anything. they just reboot the device into android os.

even “adb reboot recovery” works correctly…

Lenovo S820 is a new device. it was released in 2013, is it possible that it doesn’t have proper fastboot mode???

What should i do?

P.S.

Android system recovery <3e> options are:

reboot system now

apply update from ADB

apply update from sdcard

apply update from sdcard2

apply update from cache

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

in Meta mode just get this: Have been in meta mode, long press the power button and the normal boot.

factory mode (which is completely in english) has 8 options.

Lenovo S820 8GB Single SIM

I have a single SIM card Lenovo S820 8GB and I want to flash it.

I have two questions:

1. Is it necessary to use CWM or I can use TWRP?

2. Can I install any ROM without any worries for being single SIM? All the ROMs I have found are for dual SIM phones and I don't want troubles with my phone.

Guys just go to this thread and download this tool by munjeni. Easiest root unroot you can find. No need to go back to an older firmware n all. Just hit root/unroot and you are all set. Make sure you install proper phone drivers though. PC companion should show that c6902 connected. I had a slight issue while rooting since the phone was not getting detected. Simply reinstall PC companion and you are good to go.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hunny Boss:
Hard reset

So..you want to hard reset ur phone..so follow these steps 1) Turn your phone completely off, and wait 15-20 seconds to ensure its 100% off.

2) Press volume down, and without letting go, press power button.

3) Keep pressed until phone turns on, then release power (but keep vol down pressed)

Then u go to the CWM RECOVERY in this recovery choose Factory data reset..and u got ur phone without password..

Im on ATT M8, I recently flashed over 3.28.xxx.6.....everything was fine, vanir was running great and I had no problems with recovery.....I wanted to flashed MaximusHD Sense rom, so I downloaded both the OTA manual package and the ROM......When I booted into recovery, i could not wipe anything as I kept getting red error messages within the recovery.....I cant remember exactly what it said. Ive seen this before and all I had to do was reflash a recovery. The thing I had done before was flash a different rom without wiping anything, then bootload boot into recovery where I was able to wipe everything and start over, but after flashing Maximus (aroma)....it went to like 5% I believe and automatically rebooted to where it sits now.....The only two screens that it remains still is the bootloader and the bootscreen right before boot animation, any help would be appreciated. I think Im going to redownload a recovery, rename it 0P6BIMG.zip and bootload flash the recovery since my windows 7 computer is not recognizing my device even after installing moborobo and htc sync manager......

I held down volume Up-Down then hit power.

Reset to factory defaults, NO Help.

Hello

Correct procedure is.

Hold down Volume Up/Down at the same time, Press power button on the side for 3 seconds.

Release all buttons, Tablet should power up to a ROM screen,

This is the Boot memory access control.

Takes about 60 to 90 seconds for tablet to reformat and reboot up.

DOES NOT HELP REMOVE DEMO MODE..

The Ebay seller requested we return Tablet to Mi,

So it does not look like anything the customer can fix normally. .

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brazone:
I came to Moto X 2014 from a Nexus 4 and my first experience with the new X was kind of disappointing due to its speed and some small lags (Nexus 4 was running perfectly smooth...). Then I changed the Android X execution from Dalvik to ART and it's now running like a supersonic jet! Try do the same in your G3 (if you didn't), maybe it works. Reducing the animations speed to .5x can also help your G3 experience.

If you go to the new X, let me say that it's Amoled display is, in my oppinion (my personal oppinion), a crap. LG and Sony displays are much better than Amoled, so be prepared!

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawlgsx:
I had other phones in between but I now have the 2014 Moto X and had a G3. The G3 is nice, but IMO it was bulkier to hold and far more laggy than most of the other recent phones I have had. The Moto X is so much smoother and the Moto specific features, like ActiveDisplay, are far more useful. The resolution was great, but the screen wasn't really anything impressive past that. Everyone has their own opinion when it comes to screens though. Personally I have hated the LG screens all around (nexus 4, nexus 5, G3, G2). I find the colors too dull and the brightness for most of them very lackluster. The Moto X 2014 is also kinda "meh" in the brightness department, but the screen is still nice.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0.0:
whoa, now I have an opposite reaction toward the Moto X. I come from the Nexus 4 as well, and the Nexus 4 was laggy a bit for me. The heating up by doing almost nothing was also a problem. The amoled display isn't that bad, but I know it ain't no Samsung screen.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kertong:
I had the g3, but returned it within the 2 week period. I couldn't get over the cheap plasticky feel of the phone, it would creak when I gripped the phone, and even after root and debloat, it would occasionally stutter in the UI here and there.

replaced it with an HTC one m8 which I absolutely love - but despite the lack of stereo boomsound speakers and a microsd card slot, the moto x is better in every way. well, the camera on the m8 was actually pretty decent in low light, just as long as you didn't need to zoom or crop.

but so far, I am loving the moto x as it feels lighter, smoother and more responsive than the g3 by far, and even the m8. I love the amoled screen, the inky blacks are awesome especially at night. Feels just as premium as the m8, and way more premium the the plastic fantastic g3. especially with the leather back, it feels organic and unique.

highly recommended.

Well, I took the plunge and ordered a 32gb pure edition (I have T-Mobile). Moto says it should be here by the 22nd but I have read there are delays in the 32gb

Selling the G3 and N5 should more than offset the cost of the moto X.

The benchmarks also prove how laggy and slow the G3 is compared to the X. In my opinion it doesn't even closely compare to the Moto X in design, ergonomics, performance, call quality or speaker output. Might have a slight edge on display and camera quality.
