It might not exactly be a difference but my phone's 2nd SIM support 4G/3G/2G. And yes, I have tried 3G. It might just be an updated model. If I'm not mistaken, 911-Future_Maker has the same, though I have seen your model on the Internet. And yes, there is the model no. difference (K50a40) on the back but the parts have K50-t5 marked on them, so it is just regional, probably.

Confusion

3.1 is official and 3.5 which version is it official

Or other plz solve my query
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
Nope never tried restoring someone else's nvram backup.

I have flashed so many different roms until now that i've lost count, but i don't use sp flash tool for a long time, last time i used it was because of when i flashed some MM vibe rom that automatically replaced my recovery and then i messed up my phone trying to replace the recovery and had to flash a spanhish modified row rom to get it back to working properly.
[K3 Note General] samsungandriod:
the dev v3.5 1623 rom is ready to download from needrom. my 1622 st is very good so far. just wondering what is the difference between v3.1 and v3.5? is it worth the effort to update from 1622ST to 1623dev rom?

[MENTION=5704613]Meteordust[/MENTION] [MENTION=5106992]hackerpower[/MENTION] I had the same problem with Nvram error and also after installing a Fresh Custom Rom even some Official Dev/St i ve got a IMEI problem so i need to install Chamelephon app in order to have a working mobile network and i was so sick of doing that all over again so i Spend some time to fix this Issue.

So i search every single web site/thread no metter chinese,russian or World wide and i find The working solution on 4pda and since than i have a functonal IMEI/NVRAM.

Maybe the whole procedure is a little bit complicated and you need to pay more attention to complete this but i highly recommend to get it done. Here is the Link How to Restore nvram via Maui META 3G and SP META
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
Thanks for backup Emptywordsss ;), like mentioned in a few of my earlier posts, but doens't explain Hackerpower's problem completely, also on XDA is some thread about how to use Maui Meta and SP meta tool,

this are two separate programs

. You can also activate 5GHz bandwidth permanent in Nvram with SP meta tool !!
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
[MENTION=6918298]emptywordsss[/MENTION] [MENTION=5704613]Meteordust[/MENTION]

Will try that russian tut when i have the time and patience for it, if it works i will make an english tut and post it on the 2nd post of this thread! :highfive:

I need help. I want help about fix charging very slow in miui
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
Be aware that the first part "update parameter" will not work coz I/we don't have a factory ini file.

You can start with Maui Meta Imei download, Barcode is not necessary and seems to be the PN number (long serial on battery) of the Indian Row versions

With SP meta tool (other program) you can put Mac addresses, also the serial that is only shown on Indian Row rom's. Mac addresses will be shown of course.

Vibui or CM based roms generate on my phone serial with LP a KZAQ.............. number and on MM a SGAU..............., rest of serial stays the same but not like printed behind battery.

Also possible with SP meta to activate 5Ghz, found description on russian 4pdsa site,need to find it again, you have to set two 5ghz setting from 0x00 to 0x01. but will not work with roms that don't have 5ghz support.

Good luck, bad thing is you need to start all over with whole format flash but after that you can enjoy your phone without the need of fixing Imei's and Mac.

edit: found the picture of permanent enabling the 5GHz. http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=733342&st=880#entry48185656

Of course you will not be able to switch it off like Ankuch ? 5ghz apk.
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
The Lenovo S860 has a built in battery, so you need solder wires to make connection to the contact of our phone, also battery is somewhat thicker and not clear if cover still proper closed. Think you will have some problems and explanation to do with border security when you gonna fly when they scan your phone :D
[K3 Note General] Grigoris0r20r:
Hahaha yeah you ate right about the borders lol. Thank you so much for your time!!
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
I used ROW S205 for this tutorial.

The IMEI part went ok all like in the tutorial, haven't had the time to test it yet.

But in SP Meta when i click read from nvram and then choose the file APDB_MT6752_S01_L0.MP6_W15.44 it opens the tree of files but when i select any branch they are all blank...? They have no values...What now? Below is the SS:

https://snag.gy/KVWzCL.jpg
[K3 Note General] phuqui0805:
Help me....u can fix slow charging?
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
Sorry was already in dreamland.

Note: for serial you need hex converter so that your H******** serial is in hex code. So H becomes 0x48 etc.

For BT and Wifi you can use actual address. Example: D8:71:57:79:22:5B becomes 0xd8,0x71, etc.

After you click "read from NVRAM" and select APDB file you go on with:

Serial:

In the left panel, highlight/select the tree: "a LID Other -> AP_CFG_CUSTOM_FILE_ CUSTOM_SN _LID -> 1"

Click "read from NVRAM" again.

In the right panel open: "Barcode array [64]".

Fill 8 or more groups of elements. each symbol SN in HEX-format, the Barcode of array [1] - 0x03, the Barcode of array [2] - 0x35, the Barcode of array [3] - 0x01, the Barcode of array [4] - 0x05, the Barcode of array [5] - 0x06. the Barcode of array [6] -. 0x0F the Barcode of array [7] - 0x11. the Barcode of array [8] - 0x14.

in the left panel, select again: "a LID Other -> AP_CFG_CUSTOM_FILE_ CUSTOM_SN _LID -> 1"

Press the "save to NVRAM"

Check that there was an inscription on the bottom left of the window: "NVRAM write record successfully", and the right side red field Barcode array [0] - Barcode array [64] become black.

Click "Clear" button for cleaning right panel and not mixing stuff up.

BT address:

In the left panel, highlight/select the tree: "RDEB a LID -> AP_CFG_RDEB_FILE_ BT_ADDR _LID -> 1"

Click "read from NVRAM" again.

In the right panel open: "ap_nvram_btradio_mt6610_struct -> addr".

Fill 6 groups of elements. For example, to assign a MAC address: 98: FF: DD: A1: 05: 06 you need:

in addr [0] to enter 0x98 (the first zero character, then the Latin character "X"), addr [1] - 0xff, addr [ 2] - 0xdd, the addr [3] - 0xa1, the addr [4] - 0x05, the addr [5] - 0x06.

In the left panel, select again: "RDEB a LID -> AP_CFG_RDEB_FILE_ BT_ADDR _LID -> 1"

Press the "save to NVRAM"

Check that there was an inscription on the bottom left of the window: "NVRAM write record successfully", and the right side red field addr [0] - addr [6] become black.

Click "Clear" button.

Wifi address:

In the left panel, highlight/select the tree: "RDEB a LID -> AP_CFG_RDEB_FILE_ WIFI area _LID -> 1"

Click "read from NVRAM" again.

In the right panel open: "WIFI_CFG_PARAM_STRUCT -> aucMacAddress".

Fill 6 groups of elements. For example, to assign a MAC address: 98: FF: DD: A2: 05: 06 you need:

in aucMacAddress [0] to enter 0x98 (the first zero character, then the Latin character "X"),

aucMacAddress [1] - 0xff,aucMacAddress [ 2] - 0xdd,aucMacAddress [3] - 0xa2,aucMacAddress [4] - 0x05,aucMacAddress [5] - 0x06.

In the left panel, select again: "RDEB a LID -> AP_CFG_RDEB_FILE_ WIFI area _LID -> 1"

Press the "save to NVRAM"

Check that there was an inscription on the bottom left of the window: "NVRAM write record successfully", and the right side red field aucMacAddress [0] - aucMacAddress [6] become black.

Close window "AP Editor".

On "SP Meta Tool" window click the "Disconnect" and close the program, start you phone and enjoy a valid nvram.

Sorry for long reaction.:good:
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
Emptywordsss, did you already play around with the transmit power you can set with SP Meta Tool and did you leave the country code like it was 0x00, when I look on the internet 0x00 stands for ROW but not sure what it will do when you change this setting.
[K3 Note General] emptywordsss:
Mate i don't have a damn clue what the heck you talking bout lol ? beside that i allready forgot the whole procedure with sp flash tools and mau meta but i know for sure that i tried at least 50 times to get my IMEI back and i know that is a big pain in the arse and as i remember well i did nothing with country code or whatever you talk about
[K3 Note General] pvkiniyan95:
Just found a feature in Vibe UI 3.1 1622ST may be around for a long time but i didn't notice or someone could have previously posted and i missed....

In recent apps pulling or pushing the apps Icon instead of the wind locks the app in memory...

.
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
:D Well regarding the use of SP meta tool, besides the mac addresses and serial or activate 5ghz, there are lots of settings to adjust for instance wifi and bt transmit power and lots of other stuff. I was also already more than satisfied I fixed my phone so didn't go on with trying to tweak the nvram. But maybe you did, you never know.:eek:

If I have some days with nothing on my hands I will try it one day and share it, but on the other hand think the reception of wifi signal is already strong enough and no need to push it to the limits. :good:
[K3 Note General] buddy127:
I have a doubt...can we update the Android security patch from February 2016 to latest patch? I m running aosp 6.0
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
Just one other thing, after i do all of that, i can turn off my phone and flash a new recovery and change rom or do i have to boot to system?

Also i just confirmed that in my current rom 1604 DEV (5.1) everytime i turn wifi on i get a different mac address, but no errors and i can connect to any wifi with no problems.

EDIT: I just flashed a new rom to confirm if the IMEI's were still there and they're gone. I did the tutorial exactly like they sad and no IMEI's, so what now? what did i do wrong?

I'm not even going to waist my time with the wifi mac adress...
[K3 Note General] robterza:
If you have an old full TWRP backup you can restore your imei's, otherways

Hacker try this way. Twrp Backup you current rom, download S112 Sp Flash Tool, and flash it. Download MauiMeta, (in S112 there is NVRAM database) put your imei's , wifi and barcode. Check if imei's are ok, restore your TWRP backup. Done.

[K3 Note General] SuicidalClick:
how ti fix it ?

its suda mod
[K3 Note General] SuicidalClick:
i tryed now with other roms but is not working ..... same error
[K3 Note General] ran011:
Try with another version of twrp 3.0 or higher (latest 3.0.2.3)
[K3 Note General] SuicidalClick:
i flashed cwm and now its work :D , thx any way
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
The problem is that after i did the imeis tut i flashed twrp and restored my 1604 backup (including nvram partition). I didn't even started the phone in the row rom...

Will try it again when I'm home, now I'm on vacation without a pc.
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
1st I recommend to update your twrp recovery to 3.0.2-3

Then open the rom zip find the updater-script and replace it with the one attached below.
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
Okay that explains something, well have a good holiday :cool:, if you need any assistance later with this you can let it know.

BTW the reason why I flip battery is coz sometimes phone didn't get in meta mode but to battery loading screen on my W10 pro version. For me this is the only proven method and use SP meta for Wifi, BT addresses and serial.

Used SP_Flash_Tool_exe_Windows_v5.1612.00.000, Maui META ver 9.1548.00.00 and SP_META_exe_V1.1544.00.
[K3 Note General] zelendel:
Just a warning. All tools that edit the IMEI are illegal and banned on the site.

Either restore a back up or return to oem. Those are the only allowed methods.

Please Can someone suggest me Proper stable roms which supports QUALCOMM QUICK CHARGE 2.0 for Lenovo K3 Note Indian Version. ?
[K3 Note General] thinkgadgetsme:
As far as I know even if the ROM supports Qualcomm quick charge 2.0, lenovo k3 note won't support quick charge, Qualcomm quick charge only works with Qualcomm chipset and our phone runs on mediatek chipset.

How to measure mobile data usage on k3 note (vibe ui 3.0_1553) ?

When i go to "Mobile network settings > data usage an APP control > traffic settings > data design settings " everything starting from Province,Operator and Brand are in chinese meaning all options that are shown are in chinese and i am unable to set a limit, so how do i set a limit?
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
Not many of us running that "older" rom version. What I know is that in 1604 ST or later you have same settings with what you mention, but no need to set the province, brand ... you can set manual data limit, start date and calibration if I'm not wrong. Not running vibui roms for a while.

[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
Restore a nvram partition from you previous twrp backups (in which there was no nvram err)

-----------------------------------------------------​

In case of android M, the most recent versions are always the most stable one. And the recent 1624 DEV is a lot stable. Try using it for some days.

-----------------------------------------------------​

You are talking about s427, right?

From what you said, i assume you dirty flashed the rom over other rom. So backup, wipe everything, and do a clean install. There should be no error afterwards.
[K3 Note General] alfymon22:
ok btw no dailer , messaging app. also apps get force closes which are downloadd frm playstore.
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
How is the s427-row compared to the 1624 dev?
[K3 Note General] Scorchgid:
Yes I'm from the UK, where is it bugged? Is it the bottom left, and mostly when you're using the keyboard correct?

I bough and tried to replace the screen but the people who did so messed it up (they broke my power button, fixed it but broke my volume button as well) and it still didn't fix the issue. In the end I ended up buying a new k3 note.

Help? I really like the look and functionality of both Cuocos and Slicks ROW roms (found on needrom) but for the life of me I am unable to figure out why I lose the ability to make calls, sms or use cellular data once I have flashed them. I have checked my IMEI's, tried restoring NVRAM from a working backup, tried selecting GSM only, LTE only, Auto, but still nothing. It takes an age to connect to any network, and then even when it looks like it is connected with full strength I am unable still to use the phone for calls etc...has anyone else suffered from this problem? I have flashed heaps of other roms without issue, but for some reason the ROW roms (even the official one) just wont play nice with my phone - any tips?
[K3 Note General] br0wni3:
You are 100% sure your IMEIs are not missing ?

It sounds like they are. Had this problem a lot of times too. But reentering the IMEIs alway solved this.

---------- Post added at 09:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------

I have a bug which is bothering me for some month now:

Sometimes my speaker volume is super low, even if it's cranked all the way up. It sounds kinda distored then. If I lower the volume and turn it up again a couple of times the problem will resolve and the speaker is loud and clear again. (As clear as it gets on our device.) I really can't explain where this bug is coming from, maybe someone has an idea? I had this bug on every ROM I tried and wiped a lot of times every part of my system. It doesn't occur when headphones or bluetooth is used. Maybe it's a hardware failure but why is it perfectly fine after playing with the volume a bit ? Maybe someone has an idea on how to fix this.
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
I recommend SudaMod. I <3 it. Light, fast and good battery.
[K3 Note General] adikri:
Is it all the latest version..?

And which one is the best to install..?
[K3 Note General] adikri:
One more thing.. which dialer does those roms use..?

Can i use ideafriend if those roms use some other dialer..?
[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
Both are good in their own way.

s427 is better in terms of bug-free, stability and international support (ROW).

1624 is better in terms of battery usage and speed.

Choose your option.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------​

Easy but not preferable:

Dirty flash a full rom using TWRP. You can't apply official ota on rooted roms.

Better & recommended option but time-consuming:

Keep backups of all app using Titanium Backup, flash new rom, then restore each one.

Installed cuoco92 1621 v23 about half day ago. Lots of things were different than 1619. Cant activate greenify donation package . and the most important things is even though the optimize setting were same as 1619. I get delay message in wechat and whatsapp.

For both apps, i choose optimize on with greenify in 1619 , all works well. With 1621, both apps have delay message and i still haven't add wechat and whatsapp in greenify because my version wasn't donation package and some of the feature can't be enable.

I love the way in 1619 but i want to try newer version too. Please let me know if 1624 had the same way as 1619.

But i remmeber when i bought the k3 note the old row rom had touch issues, took way more ram than the vibe ui meaning it sometimes hanged and several other features missing, are you saying that s427 is actually a good rom worth using? Doesn't have touch issues, doesn't hang or lagg?

Hey based on your advice , i tried to uninstall google webview which was installed as system app then went to play store and again downloaded and did a fresh install of google webview...still did not work...then i used android webview (older version ) from another aosp 6.0 rom for our device and installed that as system app ...still no luck ..:( any other advice?

Yess.. try other browser..

Actually me also have that problem in my row 424 rom..

Fresh install of webview worked for me only till i rebooted the phone..

If you find something else.. please let me know..

Till that I'm using opera mini to open all the websites..
[K3 Note General] buddy127:
Sure if i find a fix i will let you know...actually for our devices 2 aosp roms are most stable one is by zormax and other one is this may update ...i did not encounter any such websites issue on zormax but in that only 2 bugs one no double tap to wake and second cannot use hangouts calling or video calling...if i try to call anyone as soon as they connect hangouts FC and if i dont remove hangouts from recents app during this FC , device reboots..not faced such problems with whatsapp..so if you are ok with these 2 bugs...give aosp by zormax a try ...its better then s424 ..and it suppirts all xposed modules including modules which make our device have android n features like quick settings and new notifications .

Regards
