I had trouble just like fastmov on my Windows 8.1 64bit. Whenever the tablet reboots to fastboot mode, the computer wouldn't recognize the tablet. I had to manually pick the "Android-Phone" with exclamation and manually install driver by selecting "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer". Assuming you have already installed Lenovo USB drivers, you can select "Lenovo ADB Device" and root tool will continue to boot into temp cwm.

Just rooted my LP 8" with no bother.

Had previously used OTA to upgrade the tablet up to LP.

Used Lenovo Smart Assistant to take the pain out of the driver install (run it twice: once when the tablet is turned on normally, and again when it's in download mode)

Used "IntelAndroid-FBRL 05-16-2015 Public Trail Release" option T4 all worked a treat. Thanks.

Try once more?

Hi, why don`t you try and install the TWRP once more and do a full wipe (also dalvik cache) before (and after) restoring KitKat?

And maybe just don`t restore data first. That worked for me after I had an update failure and was stuck at lenovo logo...

Guys after updating to lollipop, I am facing a weird 'sim not ready' error, no mobile netrwork appears nor the setting of mobile network is configurable, no data(2g,3g,4g) no voice call support.

When i insert sim card it shows sim added notification, also telecom stk app shows that sim has been read,

but still I am unable to figure it out why the goddamn network doesnot shows up? Btw wifi is working nice.

Is any body also facing same issue? What causes this error?Any help to resolve this will be much appreciated.*

P.S. I am in good network and I have also tried different sim cards but no luck so far....

Yoga 1050L root of new update

This week I received for my rooted Yoga 1050L new OTA update to version 1511191319. After smooth update root was away. Rooting is practically the same as in my previous reply in this thread. There's no change in Android ver, still 5.0.1. I only noticed change in Stagefright, now is not vulnerable.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] nobrixkthxbai:
So many different options.

Would be really grateful if someone could point me towards a tried and trusted method for rooting 1050F running Lollipop, with the current drivers and all.

Cheers
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
this is the thread you should read

this is the temp-recovery for installing SuperSU

from here download Super-SU

the drivers from here, install at least the Intel Android one

1. download the temp-recovery and SuperSU

2. extract temp-recovery somewhere. place SuperSU zip on your external sdcard or internal one

3. start launcher.bat from the extracted temp-recovery dir, choose the recovery (TWRP is fine) and as a trigger T4

4. it will reboot and start you in recovery, from there select install and select the SuperSU zip file

5. reboot and you have root
[Thinkpad Tablet General] nobrixkthxbai:
Many thanks.

I just picked up a 13 inch Yoga 2 Pro model 1380f. I just upgraded it to Lollipop using the OTA. I also was able to unlock the boot loader using instructions elsewhere on XDA. What is the best way for me to get this rooted? Should I use the utility mentioned here and pick T4? Any help would be appreciated!
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
you can simply use twrp in dnx (temporary) mode and once in it install supersu from sdcard so you dont need no adb's and triggers in your head
[Thinkpad Tablet General] mikekoz:
Thanks! That was easy. I may flash the recovery as permanent later. I doubt if they will update this tablet to MM. This is one awesome tablet, by the way! I found a pristine version of one at a pawn shop for $225.00 and it is worth every penny! :cyclops:
[Thinkpad Tablet General] -beluga-:
Hi - just saw this thread at XDA and figured better to continue here instead of the Lenovo controlled forum...

Rooting worked out great for me. My main concern was disabling some factory apps and the tablet works much smoother and recovered some of its battery life that I lost after lollipop. The primary culprit seems to have been Google Now Launcher vs built-in, which still seemed to fight for its place.

The temp bootloader in the front is somewhat outdated and didn't work for me since it doesn't allow for ignoring singature verification. The recovery tool version 'IntelAndroid-FBRL-07-24-2015' however did the job.

Anyway, I just received a 167MB update notification for YT2_830F_USR_S100250_1601190639_WW52_ROW. Did anyone try this. I assume it removes root but can it be re-rooted? Anyone try it yet?

Thanks

[Thinkpad Tablet General] toweliechaos:
Just tried this with 830F using FBRL-05-16-2015 and SU v2.68

Everything goes as planned but doesn't reboot into recovery automatically. When I boot into recovery and apply the SU zip it errors with:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted.

Any ideas?

***EDIT***

scrap that, installing the Intel drivers and some reboots appear to have solved it.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] -beluga-:
See my posts 2 above yours http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=65618265&postcount=141 - need a more recent FBRL, but looks like you found another way.

You can apply the 16 MB update for version S1008336_160408

YT2_830F_USR_S100250_1601190639_WW52_ROW is also rootable.

[Thinkpad Tablet General] Chest3r:
Might be a bad place to ask this, but is there any major difference between the 830 and the 851F? Could I install android on my 851F? Hardware (screen, processor, ram, ..) seems to be identical, I also have a running android build but i'm missing drivers for sound, screen (brightness), rotation.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] magic_jll:
I've got this tablet recently and I assumed that it has been updated to YT2_830F_USR_S100250_1601190639_WW52_ROW. I tried IntelAndroid-FBRL-07-24-2015 T4 option but I ended up recieving the signature verification failure message. I Did it some ten times, but always the same result. I will be very grateful if you describe the whole procedure to root this update. I've read almost every message in the thread. Still no luck.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] de.jan:
For my tablet its normal, you have to disconnect it from PC and continue on the phone, install SuperSU from root folder and root is done.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] magic_jll:
I've disconnected the tablet from PC after the fastboot mode loaded and did the rest. but first of all I should mention that the fastboot mode page shows a blue coloured error message at the bottom as this: "E: No valid installer medium found."

Sorry to ask silly questions, but I wonder what do you mean by "root folder"? Is it connected to the error message?

Edit: I updated Intel Android USB Driver and it worked. Seems that this was the only problem. My device is now rooted. Thanks everyone for the guide.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hsbadr:
First of all, thanks for the ROM & your time building it!

NC4 kernel is blacklisted (if it wasn't, we'd be able to reroot). So, no way to run the current version of Safestrap on NK1. This means:

No ReRoot + No Safestrap/Recovery = Stock Rooted + Vulnerable to Root Loss = UNSAFE

However, as you mentioned, it's a better option for those who want to upgrade anyway. I'm working on a new root/recovery solution for locked/unlocked devices (called, MultiSystem), which will get released after I make sure it's ~100% safe for average user.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] muniz_ri:
No worries and thanks for sharing your opinion.

I'm coming from ATT where .tar files are often never released. Modifying your phone in that environment is what I deem UNSAFE.

As for Multisystem, it sounds like Multiboot recovery which is already available for some unlocked bl devices. It would be an accomplishment to port that to locked bl devices. Good luck with that.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hsbadr:
Thanks! I've already tested "MultiSystem" & I'm currently building its APK. It's different from MultiROM/MultiBoot in many aspects: it only supports stock-based ROMs (like Safestrap) for locked devices b/c kernel can't be customized, but it's very safe with –I think– better performance compared to the other solutions (which are unavailable for locked-BL –& some unlocked-BL– devices); moreover, the current version of Safestrap doesn't work on Android 4.4.4 & is no option for VZW Note 3 b/c older kernels have been blacklisted .

The initial release of MultiSystem will "theoretically" support all Note 3 devices including VZW & ATT variants (it has been successfully tested only on VZW Note 3 though).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Proweedsmoker:
Just came to the Note 3 after my poor S4 on MDK w/ Loki exploits screen died. Was the wifes old phone, who took every OTA possible, and Im crying inside without root.....

Did I read correctly you may have found a way to root the 4.4.4 NK1 or just keep it for upgrade?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] muniz_ri:
Correct, it's not a new method but it allows you to run stock 4.4.4 and maintain root.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] TheLoonyRebel:
I'm assuming would perhaps getting Safestrap updated to the newer 2.8.x.x version get it so it works on 4.4.4 for us? Or is there more to it then just that?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] woods3336:
Anyone tried SuperSU 'survival mode' to update to NK1 and keep root? I remember folks having success doing that going to NC4. Personally I used towelroot to root NC4 but since it won't work maybe it is a viable option...no guarantees I know. So anyone tried? Something I'm missing or unaware about? Thanks :o

Is your Note 3 from within 2-3 months from when they released it? If so, its probably your phone. Here is a cut and paste from another thread I answered:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] wabmorgan:
Thanks for your reply. Looks like it is. It says 13.10 which I assume is October of 2013. Not sure what I could do though since the phone is a ebay purchase. :(

Guess I could ask... but the reason I purchased this way was to have an "upgrade" and keep my unlimited data. (Whatever I do I won't be giving up unlimited data. :D )

Sent from my SM-N900V
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] christianpeso:
Yep, that is a Day 1 release. If you are running Kit Kat on your phone that is probably the issue. If you looked through that link to the other thread I posted, when people had this severe signal issue they got a replacement through Verizon and all went back to normal. Happened to me as well over the summer. I was under the MFW so it was covered. If you got it from Ebay, I'm assuming their is no insurance on it and if so, your pretty much out of luck.

And I feel you on the unlimited data thing as I am in the same boat. Trying to find a way now to get a Nexus 6 without having to pay the full price. Good luck to you!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] wabmorgan:
Sadly, I would assume so as well.(no warranty) And of course being here on XDA the phone is rooted and running a rom.

I know downgrading to 4.3 is not an option. I wonder if the Lollipop upgrade will help ?

I like the Note3 a lot. As I told someone the other day it does everything very well with the exception of being a phone. :(

It does work pretty well most of the time... there are only a few areas where I run into the problem.

Not sure what I will do but at least your reply confirms what I been thinking.... its a hardware issue.

Might go with the Nexus 6 myself. I just hate spending nearly $800 on a phone. (Not to mention then needing to find a way to tether. ) :D

Thanks again.

I felt the same way, then I found the LG G3. It has decent support (cyanogenmod, at the very least), removable battery, IR blaster, sd card expansion, etc.

Boy... I hate to even post this but I will.

Today after kicking the Jasmine rom (which didn't seem to help with signal issues) to the curb and going back to the Blank Rom with the NK1 radio flashed in Oden... my signal seemed worse than ever.

The Note 3 would not hold a signal and if it did it wasn't for long.

Now comes the part I hate posting. :D I had one of those metal bumper cases on the phone. Well... ever hear of a Faraday cage ? Well... I popped off the case and suddenly it went to 2 bars and said "Verizon Wireless". I'm like wholly crap. Yep... that case was costing me bars !!!!

In a test, I ran Google maps on my next trip. The signal got as weak as 1 bar but never dropped.

At home now I have full bars and am getting 40M+ down.

Check out my Ookla Speedtest result. What's your speed? http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/1227031378

Metal has always been known to block cell signals. Thats why a lot of the metal phones will have a plastic strip or two on the back for where the radio is at. iPhones have those strips on the back just for radio signal purposes. Glad you were able to figure it out though.

The case I had was just one of the bump cases that ran around the outside edge.
