If you already flashed stock ROM, then you should also have the stock recovery in place. Go to Settings->About phone->System Update then flash all the OTAs that you want before you flash CWM/TWRP.

USB cable problem?

I discovered today that, my USB cable is not functioning properly(?). When I connect the cable with the laptop and my mobile, only charging symbol appears, no USB options appears on the screen as earlier. Is it hardware problem or is there any software issue? Now I am helpless, as I can not go back to Stock ROM if the cable is faulty. Suggest me some means to identify the root cause.

Should I forget updating to newer system updates now?

This means, I can not utilise the USB functions of my mobile, except being able to charge my mobile. And to add to the woe, I am rooted and I am on 'S_144' version, and If I take the mobile to an authorised Lenovo service centre(my mobile is under warranty period), I am afraid, they will find it to be rooted and will not agree for any service (free of cost). What should I do? Is the USB port of my mobile damaged? Please, someone help me.

CWM recovery remained intact.

I successfully updated to 'S-149' version and my CWM recovery sticks, stock recovery was not flashed. Now as it is unrooted, I was thinking to take the mobile to an authorised service centre for rectifying the USB port problem. But, when I checked my invoice(bill), I found the current IMEI nos. do not match with the IMEI nos printed on the invoice. So, now I am trying to revert back to original IMEI nos(which I hopefully tested on an old MTK phone and succeeded). Still then, even if I restore the IMEI nos., I am afraid if they(service centre) find I do not have a stock recovery, I may face problem. Let me see in a week what happens.

Need suggestion.

I rooted my android, used chamelephon app (from Play Store) ro replace the changed IMEI nos by the original IMEI nos. Then I found the S/N (Serial No?) to be different than that printed on the box my mobile came with. So, my concern is, will this 'S/N' pose any problem if I go to an authorized service centre for repair/maintainance of USB port of my mobile ?( my mobile's warranty period is not expired). I unrooted using the 'unroot' feature of 'SuperUser' and while checking root status after that, one app says 'not rooted', another says 'root acess is not properly installed on this device'. So, do I have to take some more action for complete unrooting so that I will see only 'Not rooted', not ''root acess is not properly installed on this device' ?

Issues in the ROM

Hi guys,

I admire the hardwork by OP and others to contribute in this thread.

Flashed this AOSP ROM today; its light, smooth and simple. The most attractive part is I got 3g/4g support on both sim slots (can't understand why manufacturer blocked it in stock ROM). however I have some issues that are forcing me to revert back to stock; just wanted to make sure if these issues are there in the ROM or I am unable to fully explore the ROM.

i- Unable to force 3g/4g (no option available to switch among "GSM/WCDMA Auto" and "WCDMA Only")

ii- Missing gestures of stock ROM ("double tap to light" and draw "V" or "O" on locked screen to start an app)

iii- Missing Dolby toggle in notification panel.

Has someone noticed those issues or is there any setting in this ROM that I may have skipped to address these three issues?

My 2nd question is that is there any way to enable/unlock 3g/4g on both sim slots in stock Firmware; If it is possible, stock firmware is also quite stable after s149 update.

Thanks n Regards,
[Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers] emil_515:

What should I do?

USB port of my mobile has been malfunctioning. So I could not go back to stock recovery and stock ROM. But, using an uploaded stock ROM version 'S-149' I got back to stock ROM and stock recovery. But I found the original IMEIs have been changed. Now I want to restore my original IMEIs , so that I can take the mobile to an authorised service centre, but I could not find any working app/solution. 'MTK Engg' is failing says "AT command sent but error'. So What should I do? I know if I can root, I can get back to original IMEI by using Chamelephon app (from Play Store). But I do not think there is any app that will root this Lenovo A 7000 without using 'Flash Tool'.

Many people are thankful for the uploaded 'S149' ROM version, done by AjaySan at page no81. post no 6. I am also one of them. But, one thing which I observe is what I want to share. If one uses the CWM back up for flashing the updated ROM, one will lose his/her original IMEIs. So, one can use 'Chamelephon' app (from Google Play Store) to restore original IMEIs(provided root is intact). But as it happened in my case, while flashing for the 1st time, I selected disabling of 'flashing back stock recovery' and I could know my IMEIs have changed, then I rooted using the intact CWM recovery(Please note my USB port is damaged and I can not use Flashtool), changed my IMEIs, 2 nd time I did not select 'disable flashing of stock recovery' and as a result I got back to Sock ROM and stock recovery, but Changed IMEIs, which now seems can not be changed without rooting.

So, is anybody is using this uploaded 'S149' version for flashing through CWM recovery, take caution to back up or note the original IMEIs( I do not know if S/N also gets changed or not) so that one can change them to original ones later.

By the way, I do not know if my mobile will be entertained by the authorized service centre or not , as they will find the IMEIs inside my mobile do not match that printed on the cover (or under the battery ?). I am prepared to bear the cost of maintainance if they do not count it under warranty. But I have heard that, if at all it needs replacement of USB port unit, it is as good as buying a new phone as the cost is very very high.

this post may help somebody.

Download the latest kingroot on google play, connect to the internet via wifi, click on root. It would take a while.

If you want to change/restore your imei

The process is simple.

1. Download this file,extract it and keep it on ur desktop

https://www.dropbox.com/s/04kv8a5ky3x2ufg/IMEI_Tool_v1.2.7z?dl=0

2. Open file, its written In Chinese but don't worry, just type y and press enter on ur keyboard

3. Type your desired imei and press enter.

4. Type your second imei and press enter.

5. Now close the software and check ur desktop, u will see the file u just created with white background. Rename to imei.bak

6. Copy to the root of ur sd card and download Mobile uncle from playstore. Open mobile uncle and navigate to imei backup restore (mtk). Enter and restore ur imei,reboot and enjoy.

[Lenovo A7000 Questions & Answers] Eversmile23:
Let me see what happens this evening.

Thank you for the guidance. As I get from ur wordings, 'kingroot'(from Google play store) can root my android mobile. Then I can restore IMEIs. Am I right? I will try this evening as the mobile is not with me now. I went to service centre this morning. The person there says if the USB port is found physically damaged, it won't be covered under warranty. if it is so, then there will be hefty charge for replacing the USB port total unit/motherboard. Let me see if I can change my existing IMEIs, then going to service centre I have to convince them that it was not my fault. But, I am sceptical if 'kingroot' will be able to root Lenovo A 7000. If it can do, then why are all using SP Flashtool method ? Kingroot will be much easier then. Only flashing stock ROM and Stock recovery will require '(SP) FlashTool', isn't it?
