[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bbobeckyj:
just reading back, if you didn't know the answer to this question (above), you probably were not cid unlocked.

if the battery is dead (you left it on overnight?) you will need to charge it outside of the ppc, then try to get into bootloader, then flash the original operator's rom.

i wouldn't give up on anything that sells used for over £100 on ebay

i got it working again :) thanks for all oyur tips.. i now use that http://rapidshare.com/files/29657481/RUU_TMobile_US_226102_22610105_022511_WWE_Ship_tmob_rom.exe ... got some error msgs and stuff along the way but i finally got it all fixed :) now, is Win 6 pro a better OS than that T-mobile you linked? and now that i hade 2.xx IPL and SPL, can i just flash it with the win 6 pro again? :)

EDIT: Also, where can I get a swedish ROM? i hate having to use the on-screen keyboard everytime im typing an å ä or ö..

EDIT2: Now ActiveSync won't start anymore either... when i insert the usb cable a notification appears in the bottom right corner saying that one USB device cannot be recognized.. :S

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bbobeckyj:
no it hasn't, (this is a forum, not a help desk:)) i was just looking at it and trying to decide what, if anything to write, when my email showed another reply.

to be really honest, any question you can think of will already have been asked and answered several times in this forum - you just need to read (use Google to search this site;)). And that doesn't even cover the questions which you will want to ask when you begin to realize what your wizard is capable of:D

Swedish roms? - absolutely no idea. and so many people here are English speakers and i assume many non English/non Americans use an English language rom anyway

active sync? - try uninstalling and reinstalling, check the options, do they allow usb connections? i find AS sometimes changes options itself
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kryXorange:
Thanks for all the tips :p

Allright so i've come to realize i don't need a swedish ROM.. i just need to fix the hardware keyboard to act like a scandinavian one...

And it isn't AS that gives me trouble really.. the problem appears before activesync.. a USB icon appears and says it cannot recognize a device.. and when i click it i get a list of my USB devices and the one that has errors is written in bold... it sayd "Okänd enhet" (Unknown device).. and i can't seem to install the wizards drivers manually when i get that option.. cause i have no idea where to find them... :/
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bbobeckyj:
active sync is what should recognize your wizard. if your pc doesn't recognize your ppc, the only reason that I know of is because active sync is not installed or not working - have you uninstalled and reinstalled?

Got the same phone. Liking the layout etc. Not the official VIBE UI rom.

It's set to English, but still finding Chinese icons/text everywhere.

Since I don't speak/read Chinese; issue...

Also sometimes laggy, due to lots of processes/apps running in the background, which can not be deleted or stopped.

Looking forward to when the community embraces this phone, and stock Android ROMS will be available on short term.

It's a (edit: potential!) flag-ship killer, in my eyes...

Hi,

I am trying to port cm12 to this device. It is the first time I am doing although I have previously created custom ROMs by editing system.img, so I am a noob.

I managed to get a stock rom: K50-T5_USR_ST1516_5.654.1_1504152228_MP6V3_CN.rar.

I have slightly modified build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh to be able to work with mediatek files which have a 512 bytes extra header.

I've triedt to create a recovery but I am not sure if it will work as I have some errors in the output

Should I copy anything from boot or recovery's ramdisk?

You can find attached the information I've been able to collect (info.txt and build.prop.txt) and build.log which was in a folder in the stock ROM.

Thanks

AOSP based 5.0 build for the K3 Note

Nanj at a Chinese forum had released an AOSP based 5.0 build for the K3 Note

http://bbs.ydss.cn/thread-551335-1-1.html (in Chinese but with captures)

The download link:

http://pan.baidu.com/s/1hqAdrrY

No gapps are included. The build functions ok. Camera, phone / data, and wifi seem to work. However please note that there is an undesirable apk, posed as a system component, at /system/app/SystemServer/SystemServer.apk. It sends frequent packets back to 622b6.romdu.com in China, similar to the issue in another post for a different rom -

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55315205&postcount=54

The ROM also comes with a Chinese version of the Opera browser, Oupeng, which also sends analytics packets in the background.

With the two programs removed suspicious packets are no longer obvious from logcat.

New VIBE UI

There has been a new update released by Lenovo.

VIBEUI_V2.5_1524_5.955.1_ST_K50-T5

I have not updated as of yet, for the reason being I am very dissatisfied with the VIBEUI. I currently run 1522, despite the obvious and numerous complications of using the Asian based firmware. I have had to replace the dialer and sms, mms apps as well as install a font manager, even so I am still unable to get 4G working. I would much prefer a pure Android rom and for the past month have been considering beginning a project to build a new Lollipop rom supporting the 67xx MTK chipsets. It would be my first attempt at doing so since all my previous phones have been LG, HTC and NEXUS devices which have always proved easy enough to manipulate and customize.

If anyone out there has experience in building custom roms, especially for devices using the newer 64bit Mediatek chipset, please feel free to contact me. I would appreciate any help offered in this endeavor and I know there are many other MTK device owners out there that are just waiting for someone, or a group of someones', to pioneer a solution for those of us in the western hemisphere using these MTK devices. I am constantly on the look out for new information and projects pertaining to this, additionally I have a dedicated computer with all the SDKs needed to begin the project.

PM me if you are interested in helping kick start this project. Thanks.

Modify Basebands?

Hi everyone, I have been running my K3 Note (K50-T5) for 2 months now. I am in North America and aside from the for-mentioned quarks with the software in these Lenovo Phablets I have noticed very limited network bandwidth and an inability to connect to ANY 4G networks.

After quite a bit of searching and reading I discovered the Frequency Bands this phone is programmed with are largely incompatible with most regional networks except of course Asian networks. In the US there is only one frequency band usable by this phone and it is a very low bandwidth channel.

I would like to know if anyone knows how to modify the basebands the phone is programmed to use. I am not a pro by any means when it comes to these devices but I am very capable of following directions ;)

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ----------

That is a good question, I do not know what exactly those letters mean but from the little bit of research I did I am fairly certain they are Unoffical builds. Unfortunately there is very little information about those build versions other than download links and a few references to Weibo and Baidu. I suspect those build may include additional apps and software for those Asian community/social forums.

If you are anyone else can find out more about those acronyms I would be curious to know as well. As for the "ST" Build I would also assume it stands for stable and from what I have learned so far Offical would be implied with that. I have 4 different Offical roms for the K50-T5 starting from 1512 on up each of them having that same "ST" format. 1522 is the build that has worked best for me so far. All be it with limited network bandwidth in the USA. I hope that answers some of your questions.

Please make sure in sp flash tool, go to options, downloads, tick the option DL DA ALL with Checksum

If you don't do this before flashing your phone will still be dead.

Once stock firmware is installed, download supersu onto your phone.

Flash CWM the same way with sp flashtool, make sure boot into recovery the first time or the stock recovery will overwrite CWM, install supersu you saved earlier, reboot then you have root.

Updating K3 Note

Once rooted the VIBE UI cannot update. From my experience you should still get the update notice but without the original bootloader the install will fail. I suspect if you can find the cache directory the img file is downloaded to you can manually update using CWM, however I have not tried this method to upgrade. Ideally you would want to reflash to OEM run updates before rooting then root and install SU.

If you are no longer able to access the VIBE UI updater then chances are you removed a critical piece of software when you were cleaning up after rooting. I have run into many problems with the software myself but never lost the VIBE UI updater. Try a factory reset and see if that restores your firmware updater. If not you probably will need to reflash.

Please let me know if you have any more problems.

Hi there,

Sorry to ask in here, not sure if this is the proper place to do it for the Lenovo K3, as I couldn't find a place for common Q&A, only for root and CWM. I think this phone has an excellent price/quality ratio, but before doing the plunge, I'd like to be sure about some things...here are my questions :) :

1. How's the video quality ?

2. Can it shoot videos in slow-motion ? If not, which app do you recommend for converting?

3. Is "burst-mode" enabled on the camera ?

4. Is the quality of the pictures decent ? Better, worse, equal than a Samsung Galaxy S3 ?

5. Is it possible to upgrade the battery with a bigger one (more capacity) ?

If you think that this was the wrong place to ask, kindly let me know and I'll post this on another thread...

Thank you for reading me, looking forward for some feedback :)

But i lost root, and fastboot wasnt working properly. But cm recovery worked fine. But i could not get anything to work.

So the phone has been working fine, but i changed the theme on the phone, nothing else, and now it reboots constantly, as soon as i get to the password login.

I HATE this phone from the bottom of my heart, i will splitt it in half with my axe soon enough

when the phone still was stock, everything was ****, the camera never worked, it took YEARS before sony released an update with a working camera. Same problem in cm, if i remember properly, this was sonys fault.

when i finally get a stable cm12 release on it, i have constant wakelocks, and i cant find why becouse im missing root.

and now, the f/&ing thing won´t start.

Can i possibly save this phone in some easy way? I will not spend hours on this phone anymore, then it will get the AXE and i will get a new phone from another brand, Sonys lockdown have only been an headache for years.

i cant get fastboot to work, i cant get into recovery, i cant get into the phone, it won´t work with adb, it just sits there and restarts
[Verizon LG G3] japaneezy:
Hi all -

My Navigation is no longer working. I've been scouring forums and searching Google but have found nothing concrete for my G3. There were some physical issues in the G2 and Galaxy S4, some other random things here and there like a bad SIM card, but nothing describing my problem.

I have tried many ROM's over the last few months and don't use nav often so not sure at what point it stopped working. When I go into Maps, it locks my location almost instantly and the little directional compass thing will turn accurately with me. It'll track me walking to my mailbox. When I search for a destination and choose the directions, it works fine (I currently stop at this point and use the route as an old fashioned map, scrolling as I drive).

However as soon as I tell it to navigate, it completely stalls. I get the pin icon in my notification bar and it shows "Searching for location..." then a few minutes later it will say out loud "GPS signal lost". The arrow does not follow me.

Yesterday I downgraded to 12B (Eclipse) from 5.1 (Resurrection). I've been having this issue on at least 3 ROM's that I know of, always clean wipe. Any help is appreciated.
