The Lenovo S8 7600 Golden Warrior is a very nice phone with some quite good specs. Only cons I could find was that it has none of community and tons of bloatware which is unremovable. Yet!

Lets root it, Guys.

5.(optional) If you want to use the Google Apps i recommend Downloading the GApps Mini for 5.0 from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/gapps-mini-t3089612

Now Lets get Started:

1. Unzip the Driver Package and Run the Exe. After Installation, restart you Computer. If using Windows 8, disable Signaure Driver Enforcement.

2. Turn Off you device. Open the SP Flash Tools Folder and run Flash_tool.exe as Administrator.

3. Now Unzip the VibeUI Firmware Package. In SP Flashtools klick on Scatter Load. Navigate to the VibeUI Folder and choose the MT6752_Android_scatter.txt.

Edt: Some People Including me had Problems with the Scatter File. However, If getting errors, try creating your own scatter file referring this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2151251

4. Check if every Downloadfile exept the System is Checked, else you will get an error.

5.IMPORTANT: Go to settings, Download and CHECK the DA DL All with Checksum.

6. Klick on Download.

7. NOW the Tricky Part. Remove the Battery. Insert it again. Now leave the Phone Turned off and plug the USB Cable in, but holding the Volume UP button.

8. If you get a Red Bar and a Yellow followed by some grey in SP Flash tools you have done it right. If the Flash was successfully, you will get a green tick mark as passed.

9. Now unplug USB and take the battery out and pop it in again. Boot the Phone. Dont get shocked if it doesn't boot up fast, it usually takes about 6-8 Minutes. Be Patient!

10. If the Phone Boots up successfully, configure it and Connect it as a MTP Device on the Computer.

11. Now Copy the GApps.zip and the SuperSu.Zip to the Root of the Phone Memory.

12. Boot into Recovery (Holding VOL UP AND DOWN while turning the Phone on) and flash the two Zips. Its in Chinese but you will

only need to flash it once. Flash Zip is the Upper Left Button. Choose your GappsZip and use the Back Button to get to the main Screen. Now flash the SuperSA.zip.

13.Reboot. If you dont know how to just take off the battery ( Its quite risky so better try using the Buttons. The Layout is the same as in the English Version)

Finished!Now your Device is Rooted and got the Gapps on it. Download Titanium Backup and remove the Chinese Crap Bloatware. You are now the Master of your Device. I would be really happy about Donations, since It was very Hard to get Hands on these Roms and Recoverys.

INFO: Some People Complained about the lost IMEI, Thank you Soyer88 for the fix! Sorry that I was away for too long, I got my finals.

Be sure to donate him a Beer!
