This my BLOG covering Lenovo devices that I used and the problems I faced : http://malaysianandroidsupport.blogspot.my/

IF you are using HC S000126 (not S000125)Lollipop then everything is applicable from my post. There is a TWRP that is 98% compatible with A7-30HC but 100% compatible with GC. DO NOT USE this TWRP on HC to do "dalvik-cache" wipe because it will guarantee a bootloop (it either wipe the system partition or it fails to remount the system). Everything else works with this TWRP. DO NOT USE TWRP to install "SuperSU update.zip" the SuperSU on the HC because it will result in the same things as dalvik-cache wipe.

I dared the users on 4PDa/Lenovo Russia to update "SuperSUupdate.zip" to do it but none took the offer. I tried it out 3 times and 3 times it went into bootloop with "system not found" error message. I am on S000126 via SPFlashTool flash and rooted using Kinguser. I dont want to risk replacing it with SuperSU as it is working flawlessly.

Regarding "SuperSume" the latest update was from my input to developer on the locations of files/apps belonging to Kinguser/Kingoroot/iRoot rooting but it still didnt resolve users facing problems after "purchasing" and running the app on their device. It is the SuperSume developers who is not following/updating his exploits but with each Kinguser/Kingoroot/iRoot version they have changed their exploits and I can attaest to that. They change the location of app system/data , added/remove files in "bin", /"system/etc/, "/data/dalvik-cache", "/xbin" there are not at the same location for every version.

Hi mate I am using the twrp u provided and I want to wipe dalvik cache. The recovery flashed everything properly on my tab 2 GC variant but now I want to restore the backup as some apps are not working because of a zip I previously flashed. Will there be a bootloop.
[Android General] cracktech:
Based on users feedback n my own ecperience Back/ Restore/ Install works A-OK. Except SuperSU update zip and " wipe dalvik- cache" on HC ( HC, HC!!) which some how didnt work. Before you do dalvik wipe do full backup first. I am using an app instead of TWRP to wipe dalvik. No there shouldnt be bootloop , it is perfect for GC.
[Android General] xinxali:
I did selinux permissive. A7-30HC
[Android General] AfterShöck_1:
I dont get this part, did you try the official superSU zip to install via twrp?

I just decided to give it a try and it flashed perfectly, finally rooted without a need for shady chinese software.

EDIT:

Also this, I'm on an HC and like i said I tried the latest SuperSU update zip and it worked.

Dalvik wipe is still a mess tho, what app are you using?

Lenovo Tab2 A7-30H_S000119_150827_ROW

I recieved an OTA Update to Android 5.0.1 for my Lenovo Tab2 A7-30H today. It was one update to another KitKat Version and then two updates to the current lollipop.

Went to a blank screen for quite some time after the installation. Scared me a little the first time but it came back to life by itself after a while.

Build Number: A7-30H_S000119_150827_ROW

I hope it was worth the wait.

How to flash lenovo tab 2 a7 20f

This firmware work or not work flash to lenovo tab 2 a7 20f??!
[Android General] cracktech:
Dont try to flash HC/GC/H/DC on any version with F version ( A7-10/20/30) you will brick! All " F" version use MT8127 n all the rest are using MT8382. Please search on " 4pda.ru " or Lenovo Russia site for your ROM ! There are places where you can get proper help instead of just hanging around US sites for most China brand devices. DC/HC/ H can safely be interchange. The HC version is the full spec version with 3G/Data/ Voice facilities if you use the HC version on H/DC they will be converted to HC specs bcoz they all share the same hardware

[Android General] BlueChris:
I cannot find the DC Version anywhere.

What i miss here
[Android General] cracktech:
BlueChris, I have not posted any links for TWRP A7-30 any version on XDA. I just posted a links to my BLOG or require that you PM/ e-mail me (1 to1) for the links because I did not want to make the link public. Sorry about that but a word of warning the TWRP it seems has got a small flaw that it cannot do "dalvik-cache wipe" without also unmounting/deleting the system partition. So if you use the TWRP DO NOT DO "dalvik-cache wipe" the other functions are working perfectly.

This is the same one found on 4pda.ru, right?

So I need to be on 4.4 or it wont work? what happens if I try to update from 5.0.1?

Edit:

Also, I read on 4pda that FM radio and GPS are broken, is this still true?

FM radio is not an issue, but GPS would be a red flag.
[Android General] PGHammer:
Actually, unless you need multi-user features, Lollipop is worth the wait.

The real problem is the utter lack of custom recoveries (especially for Lollipop); worse, all the development work is concentrating on Mediatek phablets and phones (not tablets - at least Mediatek-based tablets).)
[Android General] vishaldvnn:
There's no option to safely remove the otg in the tablet on KitKat

Yeah google took that option out in lollipop for some reason.

Your best choice (if rooted) is to dl foldermount.

Oh and btw, i've meant to ask this.

I'm currently running the A7-30HC_S125 ROW firmware, and I see that the S127 build is available but if I try system update it tells me that I'm on latest version. I take it that lenovo hasnt released on my region (Latin America).

Is there any way to force the update?

Nope! It is not rooted! This is a stock firmware but I removed 300Mb bloatwares leaving another 250Mb bloatwares that you have to delete after you root it yourself (a fast root method "Kinguser", "Vroot" Android app 100% success)

Unbrick MTK devices

Sorry to hear bout ur problem. Seems that you alteady have xperience using SPFlashTool. I will not be active on the web for this whole month till 8/ July (Ramadan fasting) But this is what you should try to do to unbrick ( make sure all drivers on PC is installed esp. VComm) then you fire up SPFlashTool with USB cable attached then press Vol minus plus Power button ( like entering recovery mode) it SHOULD start the flashing process. If timing is off make sure you switch off the tablet ( wait till vibrate) and retry again. FYI I have the Lollipop HC S00127 firmware. And for GC,H,F,DC version.Do not request for firmware until 8/July I will not entertain.

Just bought this tab (the A7-30HC variant) and found that it has a chinese firmware (i'm not in china). I want to flash a row rom. So i have two questions. The tablet has its own stock recovery mode so can i use it to flash the new rom or i have to install a custom recovery such as twrp?

The second question is if i flashed a row rom over the chinese one will the device get bricked ?

[Android General] ahmedAZ:
can i install this rom over lollipop s126 HC ?
[Android General] PGHammer:
I Do, Actually

TWRP 2.8.7.0 by Jemmini is what I just installed (and am now using) with my A7-30F running Lollipop - it can be installed via Rashr. The only issue is that you have to override the (false) not enough space flag (in Rashr) for the install to take; however, other than that, the install is fast; even better, it's immediately usable. (Naturally, like all versions of a properly-installed TWRP, it works with TWRP Manager; it also should work with any other utility that supports TWRP recoveries.) If someone can direct me to the proper thread, I'd like to give the "kudos" where they are due - I've HATED not having a proper recovery!
[Android General] venomrat:
Hi,

I just purchased a Lenovo Tab 2 A7-30HC.

The build number is A7-30HC_S000029-151020_ROW.

Which custom recovery should I use? I tried to read through the thread but got confused.
[Android General] PGHammer:
There Is

If you are in the US, Europe, or most of Asia, you should have it by now; I have been running Android 5.0.1 for a bit now (I had to fix my stock recovery, which required me to flash the last KitKat updates using FlashFire (it's the only updater tool I know of that will work even if your recovery is broke); once that was done, I was able to update normally through 5.0.1 (last official update).
[Android General] Nemo1985:
I live in Europe and I just checkes, it just says that the version I have (s000027) is the last one.

I also have issues with the root, is it possible to use super su or do I need to use kingroot only?

Thank you.
[Android General] PGHammer:
I started with KingRoot, but followed Chainfire's walkthrough to swap to SuperSU (and keep root).
[Android General] Nemo1985:
Thank you, do you have a link for the walkthrough?
[Android General] ahmedAZ:
download supersu from play store and it will delete kingroot and keep root

or flash lollipop using spflash and this is better than update using ota updates
[Android General] PGHammer:
SPFlash - Too Persnickety.

Using that prepacked lump update via SPFlash can be done from within the phone/tablet/phablet as well - it just needs to be done with the update package in the SD card.

I loathe SPFlash (except for doing backup/restore); now that I actually have a proper TWRP recovery, I will no longer use it.
[Android General] ahmedAZ:
Do you try custom roms for this tab?

---------- Post added at 09:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

[Android General] PGHammer:
Recovery for Lenovo Tab2 A7-30F

TWRP 2.8.7.0 by Jemmini works a treat with this tablet on Lollipop; install using Rashr (must have root, of course).

Because it's TWRP, it can be managed using any TWRP-compatible manager (I use TWRP Manager itself).

Backs up in every way TWRP supports (to internal storage, to SDcard, and to a connected PC).

Hi guys, i dont know if im on the right thread so im sorry if i am, but i need help with my lenovo tab 2 a7-30. when i installed a custom rom and rebooted the system, it keeps rebooting after reaching the lenovo logo. i tried to do recovery but it wont let me. (volume up+power button). tried adb on my pc as well and hoping it will reboot the tablet to recovery mode but it wont detect my tablet. please help.
[Android General] PGHammer:
What Custom ROMs?

There are exactly ZERO custom ROMs for this tablet - none whatever. There are some for the A7-10F (same CPU, but different Mali GPU), and other MT8127 SoCs; but not this particular tablet.

Hence the issue. Worse, Lenovo has a new TAB series (TAB 3) which differs from the TAB 2 - hence looking like it will stall with Lollipop.

this tab has smoe roms on 4pda but have issues in calling and vpn

So I've had the Z3+ for a few weeks now and I have not been particularly impressed with the battery life. I was just curious to know what kind of longevity others are getting. I seem to average 4 hours sot with medium to light use. I am on .24 firmware and had two OTA updates as soon as I turned on the phone after opening the box. What are you guys seeing in terms of battery?

Edit: Should mention this is with intermittent wifi and data turned off. No apparent wakelocks either

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] deecept:
Hey,

I noticed this as well, on .24. However, my phone almost cooked itself, so was a little more worried about that. After doing a 'phone repair' in PC Companion (Bridge for Mac), the temperature dropper a LOT, and as an added bonus, the battery life seems a lot more stable. Recommend doing a clean install of .24, not OTAs.

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] EnderIII:
Holy **** this.

I was using no pwoersaving features and would end the day at 10-20% with moderate use.

Now with stamina mode turned on(whitelisting only commonly used apps), I end the day at 60% with moderate use.

Stamina mode is the greatest thing I have ever come across.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] AhsanU:
You guys that are getting really bad battery life should definitely look into using stamina mode more aggressively. I've white listed the apps I commonly use (which really aren't that many) while keeping brightness at a reasonable amount and I've gotten great battery life. 5 hours of SoT while on constant WiFi over here. I do use greenify whenever I remember, Nova launcher with app swipe gestures is awesome.

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] efex:
My battery was emptied in about 10hours, moderate use (Stamina mode, not ultra). On top of that, it went into a boot loop when there was about 10% left.. And there was nothing that could stop the loop except for plugging in the charger and wait about 30 minutes for it to stop the loop or wait and let the battery get emptied. So today I did a factory reset and a repair through Sony PC companion - and the top third of the screen stopped reacting to touch completely. Just sent it in for service/repairs.. Hope to get some good news soon. I'm really starting to regret ever buying this phone...
