Do These Steps And See If It Works

Use WinRar For Extraxting Files

First Do A Normal Extraction With WinRar If It Doesn't works Do These Steps

1.) Right Click On Rar File

2.) Extract File/Extract Archieve

I forgot What Was The Option It Is Above( Extract Here )

3.) See Below Left Hand Side Corner And Check (Keep Broken Files)

Bro Rooting Means You Have to Flash CWM Or TWRP recovery.

And These Recoveries Are Not Able To Handle Official OTA Updates till Now

As You Flashed CWM/TWRP recovery Before Then You Flashed Stock recovery Over

it

So Recovery Files were Messed Up With each Other... It Shows Stock Recovery

When Enter To Recovery Mod After Flashing It

But It Do Not Help You Flashing OTA Updates As You Flashed CWM/TWRP recoveries

before..

and if You Want OTA updates

The Only Choice Is To Flash Stock Firmware

After That You Will Be Able to Install OTA Updates ..Easily..

Download It From First Page:good:

Unable to load the CWM/TRP recoveries on the Lenovo a7000

Hi,

Build Number: A7000-a_S137_150528_ROW

I have been trying to load the alternative recoveries using the methods given in the following websites/blogs (amongst others):

http://www.cyberkey.in/how-to-root-lenovo-a7000-100-working/

http://techolaty.net/how-to-install-cwm-and-root-lenovo-a7000/

http://xdaforums.com/chef-central/android/request-cwm-twrp-recovery-lenovo-a7000a-t3102588

https://limpidtalks.com/how-to-root-lenovo-a7000/

http://www.techintor.com/2015/05/install-cwm-root-lenovo-a7000-working.html

I am new to this, but as I understand the methods are all similar.

However, I am facing a problem after connecting the mobile to the PC. On the device manager it shows "MT6752 Prelaoder", but the flash tool never starts downloading to the phone. Rather the battery starts charging! I also tried Askame's method (post #646) (Remove battery, press VolumeUP while connecting, keep VolumeUP pressed while inserting battery, release VolumeUP) but nothing worked.

Please confirm that Build Number: A7000-a_S137_150528_ROW is rootable? And if so, what are the exact steps to follow.

A few words about my setup:

Windows 8.1

MediaTek SP Flash Tool v5.1436.0

USB drivers from Lenovo (from the phone I guess)

I have also tried using Windows 7 in a VM but that also did not work.

Any ideas from the gurus here?

You should try using below process while trying from Windows 8.1 "Disabling Driver Signature Verification"

Press Win + C button to open the charms bar.

Click Change PC Settings

Click Recovery in left hand side

Below Advanced Startup click restart now.

The PC will now show a blue screen with some options. Click Troubleshoot.

Then Advanced Options.

Then Startup Settings.

Then click Restart.

Now PC will restart and now it will show some options.

Click 7 to disable Driver Signature Verification. And now PC will boot into Windows.

This works for me, let us know if this works for You as well...! :o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o

Wifi issue. How to solve it?

I am facing a problem with wi-fi on my Lenovo A 7000 : After turning on wi-fi, I am unable to connect my mobile to a wifi-hotspot, which was working properly previously. I tried by deleting the wifi aceess point settings and again adding afresh. What might be the reason and how to address the issue?

The problem seems to have gone now, when I rebooted and re-tried wi-fi connection. I have not updated to S-144. It is really cumbersome to go back to stock ROM everytime to update the OTA and then again re-root.
[Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers] rrs.xda:
The had a similar problem, also Wi-Fi would not work if I enabled there hotspot and then disabled it. But the latest update S-144 has solved it.
[Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers] tukull:
every custom roms for a7000 seem to downloading big chunks of data in the background when connected to wifi only.

even after fresh flash, the phone immediately downloading something in the background after connected to wifi.

i mean a lot of it, 2GB in 1 hour? i haven't even logged to gmail account or installing any other apps.

Why can not I boot successfully?

I updated my mobile to S_144 version yesterday. Before updating, I made a CWM back up. Now when I re-rooted after flashing CWM recovery and tried to restore data from the CWM back up I made earlier, my phone does not boot and remains at the 'Lenovo logo' screen and leaving it for 15 minutes, I observed its temp rising. So, I pulled out the battery and re-flashed the 2nd back up(it was made just after installing CWM recovery and 'SuperSU') and my mobile was alive. But, I do not understand, why did it happen? I remember, last time I had successfully restored 'data' portion of a previous ack up after switching to S_142 version from S-137 version. I use Link2SD and store many apps in' sdext2' portion of my external SD card.

---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 PM ----------

Seems I have got the solution ! May be I should have waited for some more time to allow the restoration to complete. AS I had a very large no of apps before updating to S_144 version, the back up of 'data' part was large and it needed some more time. This evening when I tried for the third time, I found my mobile with dark screen and red light signalling charging is going on, in stead of the 'Lenovo Logo' . I was sure, it has booted and checked it and found all my apps got restored.

[Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers] Eversmile23:
replying for the help u asked.

It is all there in this forum. U have to get any of the stock version ROM like S_137 or S_141 or S_142 or like that. I had S_137 version(approx. 1.2 GB) with me. U have to follow the guide on how to flash stock ROM using SP Flashtool. That, of course needs some downloading of softwares ( if u r starting from scratch). Once u flash the stock ROM u can get all the OTAs available by connecting to 'internet'. If u need any further clarifications, u can contact me for links.

Don't forget to 'thank', if I helped u.

So few days ago I flashed unofficial cm12 rom on the phone

In that rom there was a problem of invalid imei.

So I flashed back the stock rom,still the problem was same.

I formatted all partitions with sp flash tools and again flashed stock rom

Still the problem is not solved.im not able to use any sim card because they wont register to network.no signal no service.

But once I had made a nandroid backup with twrp,when I restore it the sim cards work.

But as soon as I try installing any custom rom the same problem arises.

Bricked Lenovo A7000

Hello, I've apparently bricked my A7000-a this morning. I tried to wipe cache and dalvik cache using TWRP and it just stood there and not moved, so I removed battery and put it back in. Now the phone just keeps restarting and shows open recovery in TWRP and shuts off the phone and on again in boot loop. Can I flash the stock firmware even when the phone is in condition like this? Thanks
[Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers] rrs.xda:
This is generic, if you are able to enter into recovery, you can flash. But if the phone keeps restarting, it could be a challenge. But ensure your battery is charged.
[Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers] gleesl:

[Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers] rrs.xda:
Does it start on when the USB cable is unplugged, if yes, copy the files to your micro SD card and flash. Else it maybe safe to take it to a service center.
