[MENTION=5106992]hackerpower[/MENTION] thanks for the index.

However the source of the rom should be quoted correctly. You can leave the cloud drive link as what it is.

Quite a few roms are made originally by the great Chinese cook [MENTION=1444605]kaka44[/MENTION] , and we need to show our respect to him.

For example

I am definitely going to have to install a different rom. I just received this phone and did a malwarebytes scan and it found 21 files that were PUP and Trojans on the stock firmware. You would think they could get in legal trouble for doing that.

Hey ! Do you have sudamod for k3 note ? Please if you still have this rom can you upload to google drive or something for me :p. I got my hands on this phone ( Second hand old rig). I found no way to download from original link i.e from the chinese website.

:giggle:

Hey! Do you still have sudamod for this phone ( k3 note) ? If yes can you please do a little hardwork by uploading it to google drive or any cloud service for me. I really really want to try this rom on my second hand k3 note. I found link to sudamod on 4pda but its needs baidu account and everything is in chinese which I don't understand. Even tried translation with google but ended up with nothing since baidu cloud isn't accepting account registration for my phone number( may be the service is no more available outside china).

It's a humble request, please help me get this rom if you can.

Please can anyone help me I tried installing many custom roms on my Lenovo k3 note but it shows invalid imei I tried all methods like chamelieon app etc
[K3 Note General] k@iserex:
Why dont you just ditch SP tool altogether and use way more easier custom recovery, like TWRP?! If you are worried about OTA, every OTA that has came out can be flashed from TWRP, so I would suggest that route. I have never used SP flash tool and have tried dozen of ROMs out there. TWRP offer neat backup/restore functionality, so if you are very fond of one particular ROM, you could do a backup and flash another one for testing and if you dont like it just restore a backup. There is many more benefits of using TWRP, so go with that. :) ?
[K3 Note General] Kodaro:
The Phones are not delivered with the official Lenovo software. The "stock" Rom is made by the shops to spy on you. I'm pretty sure Lenovo doesn't like this too.

---------- Post added at 09:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 AM ----------

Do you have a new version of spflashtool? Did you tick DA / DL all in settings? Where did you download the Roms? Download them on the Lenovo site.

Spflashtool is normally amazingly easy to use
[K3 Note General] elrasho:
I’m getting really poor signal with this phone. I know it only does 4G at 1800Mhz on Three but when there is no 4G it doesn’t drop down to 3G or 2G. Instead I just get no signal at all :(

I’ve set it so it connects automatically to the network so I think it tried 4G first, If that doesn’t work then it will try 3G and finally 2G. What could be causing this? Can I get a better “Radio ROM”?
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
"Source" means where i found it, not who made it.

It says Source not Developer!

BTW if you take Lewa rom for example, and click the source link, on the source post on the 1st line you have the original developer link.
[K3 Note General] helnandez:
Quite a few didn't provide the original link.

Well, it is a word thing. As I said we need to respect the writer kaka44, not really anyone else who contributes as much roms as him.

As long as we know the original link, we can correct it to show our respect.

I spoke to him and he is also complaining his rom being forwarded, copied and re-edited without his permission and quote.

Due to the language barrier and Chinese firewall to overseas, he seldom shows up here.

If we know the original link, we need to change to the source. If we dont, we can ignore.

how to port rom bcoz simple porting doesnot work for mt67xx
[K3 Note General] superdragonpt:
Well this is funny

He is just porting the work from Jiayu S3

That rom of "his".. is just some dirty quick port made by us at Jiayu Germany...

Give a look at Jiayu S3 section right here on xda.

These little noobs, don't even give credit..

Btw: Our rom is compiled from source, this is not a port

cheers

hey guys :) thanks for the support :) most of the custom rom are amazing :) i would like to know whether i can enable multiuser support on vibe ui ST version like the ROW version has!!! i tried to editing build prop but it dint work on vibe ui...and secondly i tried few roms on the list and i would like to know which custom rom is better with less bugs and good performance :) thanks you :)

Thanks for the heads up and Im sad to hear that some ppl uses other hard work so that their internet ego can get its kick.

[K3 Note General] preditcon:
Could the same be said for the Nexus 8 ROM? They are supposedly very similar and the guy who posted it on needrom is looking for its original dev..
[K3 Note General] kongha:
I would say that Nexus 8 rom is rather different. The uploader dosent claim that its his work (and dosent setup a paypal account for him to contiune "work" on the mod).

The guy that uploads the Karbon rom is aware that he got caught red handed and his action is to delete comments asking him what he is thinking.

Is there a chance to update the links for the recoveries folder from the second post. I need twrp/cwm recovery flashable via custom recovery.

Thanks
[K3 Note General] superdragonpt:
^^ THIS

What really pissed me off, wasn't that he ported our work, but:

(i know very well, better than enyone how hard is for us, the users, to have an MTK based device...). 99% of MTK roms are "ports" ... This is not the issue.

- Lack of credits and links to the (original) compiled rom

- Claiming was his work

but, the one that really (insert bad word here):

- Asking donations, and giving priority to the people that donate

Btw: We upload our base source to lp5.1.1 and this was compiled with Jiayu S3 specific source code, so it's rather normal, that some features wont work on the k3

(You'll need proper inline kernel, for some of these advanced features)

:)

Sorry for OT

Cheers
[K3 Note General] EpicSauce:
I think very much on topic. I was considering donating to this guy as I assumed he had done all the hard yards to bring the rom to where it is. I should be donating to you! I flashed the Carbon Lite 2.5 rom after rooting a week ago and I've been very impressed, the phone has been transformed from something stodgy and bloated into a lean, fast machine which is a pleasure to use.

Agree with your sentiments - a big mistake not to acknowledge his sources made worse by asking for donations. I wondered why he hadn't been involved at xda...

Any chance of developing for the K3 Note? I've got a donation ready to send :)

Hi Is that meaning that we can use the Jiayu S3 rom directly ?

if we cannot do direct porting, can you make us one rom to upgrade K3 note to 5.1.1?
[K3 Note General] alienzdator:
Is there any bugs with this ROM? if not, i would like to try it. Thanks for the suggestion.
[K3 Note General] stephendt0:
Yes, the memory management is atrocious. You have to fiddle around in the terminal to get it to run without epic lag. Testing the Androium ROM now, so far no major issues...
[K3 Note General] Yotov:
I want to say VIBEUI_V2.8_1537_LTT_LEMONADE is pretty good rom. I used him for 2 weeks and don't have any troubles :)

It's really not. Many apps force close or don't work at all.
[K3 Note General] stephendt0:
+1 I have had many issues with Chinese Dev ROMs. Even the ROW ROM is plagued (memory leaks galore).

It seems really hard to make a ROM that works 100% for this device. You get what you pay for I guess.
[K3 Note General] psarogen:
You are wrong with that. Androium 2 is close to being the perfect rom for the k3 note if you don't care for the led notifications.
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
I have the row rom and when i try to enter in recovery mode so i can wipe cache it gives me some meta thingy and everything is in chinese. Anyone can help me?
[K3 Note General] thinkgadgetsme:
On stock recovery there is an option to change the language to English but i did not see any option to wipe the cache.
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
Than where is the option to choose english?
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
Vibeui roms are the best for our device. I tried them all and stick with st or dev roms for now. No lags and everything works. And the battery life is great, always more than 5 hours of sot.

You must have done something wrong if the dev roms didn't work for you.
[K3 Note General] SteveCoops:
Just tried out the Lemonade AOSP V2 and it's almost there - I got random pauses which were quite annoying.

Then tried out Androium but couldn't get any 3/4G data to work. Also the OTA patch wouldn't install.

Now trying out the latest VibeUI build 140... only on first boot at the moment.

edit - not having much luck at all at the moment! I installed build 140, put TWRP back on, restart and install gapps, reboot then it just hangs on the Lenovo logo...

edit 2 - got there in the end! Just had to leave it for a few minutes.

edit 3 - I have no swipe down from the top any more!? Argh this is winding me up tonight!
[K3 Note General] SteveCoops:
Flat battery now and it's only a few hours till I have to get up for work, so I'm going to put Lemonade AOSP V2 on so at least I have a working phone for the morning.
[K3 Note General] TC93:
I was wondering what is the difference between the ST vs DEV roms? Are they based off the same rom? The only info I found about them was just the mega storage space where you can download them. Is there any website/forum for those roms?

Yesterday I installed the "LENOVO_K3_LOLLIPOP_5.0_ROW_v1.12_CUOCO92" rom. I need to test it more to see how its battery life is. I also had to turn on battery saver to lower its battery usage. But I am glad to have finally removed the stock firmware with its stupid popups and malware.

[K3 Note General] surfthesummer:
I've been using LiMoNcHeLo NovAMoD MDSTeam rom with 1529st kernel and the Lspeed mode uninstalled. It's been a few months now and haven't had a single problem - the phone is fast and smooth, both led notifications and double tap to wake work. Haven't had a single lag or restart... LiMoNcHeLo and 1529st kernels, though being the same version, seem to be different. With the LiMoNcHeLo one I used to have occasional lags - mostly noticeable while brousing with Opera browser - the touch screen was randomly getting less sensitive. With the 1529st kernel I haven't had a single issue for months and can't imagine that there is a better rom out there regarding speed and functionality. I'm getting about 16 hours of battery life with 6hr SOT - web browsing on 3g and wifi and over 1hr talk time. The only thing missing, I can think of, is theme support. The phone is smoother and faster than Samsung Note 4 on TouchWiz with wireless reception being better. The camera sharpening/noise reduction algorithm is the only drawback that would have made Lenovo K3 Note a perfect phone.

If someone knows a rom or a camera app that would apply minimum or no sharpening/noise reduction, please let me know.
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
Alright thanks, which rom do you use?

And why when i restart my phone or when i pull out my battery the ringtone resets to the default ringtone?
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
I'm using the latest dev.

Don't know about the ringtones.. Try to put them in a folder called ringtones in the device memory.
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
How much system ram is taken with the latest dev rom?
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
After i clear the recent tasks, i end up with 1-1.2gb of free ram.
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
So around 900mb-1000mb wich is almost the same as the row rom, yeah ill stick with the row rom and see if i will get official android M update soon.
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
There is no lag with dev and st roms, and i know row has some lag..

And i think that if M comes, it will be vibeui first, and after it, row..
[K3 Note General] Kodaro:
Today I switched from row to dev and yes, it's way more fluid now
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
I thought only the chinese and indian rom have ota updates.
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
Yes, Chinese rom is called vibeui.
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
Yeah but if you install dev rom you loose the ota updates?
[K3 Note General] TC93:
I regret having installed the DEV version. The rom doesn't even come with gapps to access the play store. It also has overwritten my TWRP recovery with its own stupid wannabe recovery. Parts of it are still in Chinese even though you selected English. Now I get to spend hours trying to fix this again.
[K3 Note General] Pe3ball:
That happens when you don't read first and then proceed to installation of official rom.The official Stable and Developers Vibeui roms,don't have Playstore and gapps. Now you know it the hard way :D . There are also some backups from twrp from hackerpower that are already with root playstore and cleaned from chinese apps .
[K3 Note General] oldfold:
nice post

This is very useful. Thanks a lot for noticing all the things I too was concerned about. So one question, how did you flash or get onto the 1529kernel ?? I'd like to try it and avoid the lags. And for the camera problem maybe you should try A better camera app. I think it allows for proper customization to better the noise reduction problem.
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
Nope. You have ota dev updates, and also you can download and install the latest st software at any time via the same ota update function.
[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
Wooot i didn't know that, i might switch soon, as of now my row rom is doing good never drops bellow 300 mb of ram even with 10 apps opened so when it start lagging than ill switch to some dev rom, since i know nothing about costum recoveries or flashing gapps and stuffl ike that
[K3 Note General] Kodaro:
Ummm the amount of free ram ain't saying anything about lagging or anything else. And the dev rom doesn't come with gapps and is flashed via custom recovery. Better know a lil bit then.
[K3 Note General] korsa5791:
Hello everyone. I wanted to ask if I can install the rom CoolUI front page. I ask this because the installation script has the format system on the block 6 (format mmcblkop6). My Phone (k50-t5 lenovo k3 notes) has the system in block mmcblkop17. If I install this rom brick my phone?

[K3 Note General] Armageddonn_mkd:
Yeah but people say the dev rom has stuff still in chinese while the row rom is fully in English and that is a big plus.
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
I suggest you try it first, and you'll see that is way better than row.
[K3 Note General] Kodaro:
I don't see chinese but there are indeed a lot of chinese apps. Maybe someone knows what can be safely deleted with still being able to ota update. Such a list would be even a great help for the beginning of this thread Imo.
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
Delete them all but security app and update app.. I disabled all of the Chinese apps and uninstalled most of them..

There are no official forums for this, so please explain where this info is at? I even asked about it a few days earlier before I installed it, with no replies.

I assumed I could reinstall twrp if it removed it, but no, the Chinese authors are forcing their worthless junk on everyone. It would not even let me install twrp using the command prompt method. I ended up having to use the lenovo software (thanks to the rootjunky video on youtube) to reinstall the spyware ridden stock firmware, then use the command prompt to flash the twrp recovery, then another firmware.

I can't believe people are here pumping the original chinese firmware. I am getting great idle battery life on the Androium rom, but my main complaint is that I can't see any ringtones selection in it.
