Guys as long as I'm using VibeUI 1606 I can tell you that the biggest problem is not that famous NVRAM error, but that you can no longer move apps to sd and also can't swap the default write disk without any ****ty limitation as encrypting your card for example. This is not a VibeUI problem, but a problem of the MM base it's running. To be honest I prefer 5.1 when comparing it to 6.0 for moving apps to sd and the ability to use my card as default storage for large apps and games. You can set extsd as internal on MM too, but it will encrypt the card, this will screw all the people who are dualbooting or using the card on multiple devices!

I'm finally up and running on 1604 after my Wordpad issue! I've encountered a few teething issues though.

I've been testing text message sending. The notification LED isn't flashing when I use Chomp or the stock app, despite having it set in both Chomp and settings.

Pressing what should be the recent apps button is launching a menu in both Nova and stock launcher. I've searched through all menus to revert this, but I can't find the option.

Lastly, my Signal Notification widget freezes after a while. ie. it ceases displaying the correct signal. I have to press on it to launch the app before it refreshes itself.

Any ideas?

VibeUI_3.1_1606 MM 6.0 Review

THE GOOD:

-The Rom's built-in modem doesn't have a "R" symbol unlike all VibeUI after 1544 based on 5.1

-Fast and fluid. Personally I found it a little bit faster than VibeUI based on 5.1. Gaming is also good, no heating up or strange behavior.

-The battery is very good, pretty much 1:1 with the SOT you can get on 5.1

THE BAD:

-NVRAM ERROR 0x10 out of the box

-Some force closes, but this is still an early dev build so it's kind of acceptable

-Move app to sd function seems there, but not working. May be you'll need to "Adopt" your card first to be able to move apps to sd.

-Sound is mediocre and low even with MaxxAudio pumped.

THE NEUTRAL

-Hardware buttons functions rearranged. While using the Menu button for Recents is speeding up the multitasking it may be uncomfortable for some users in the beginning.

-Still no worldwide weather.

-Music and Video apps still whole in Chinese.

CONCLUSION AND THINGS TO HAVE IN MIND:

-Pretty much stable DEV rom, I would even call it PRE-DEV build. Unfortunately force closes and strange bugs are expected. Some strange thing I discovered is that sometimes when you set a new wallpaper it's looking greyed out, looks like there's a tint on it. Also the wallpaper chooser needs work.

-Some settings are still missing, but will be added in the future for sure. Example is the missing Date Format setting.

-SuperSU 2.67 not working, the result - the phone was stuck at the logo for like forever. It's possible that all system less SuperSU version won't work. SuperSU 2.52 is working fine though.

DO I RECOMMEND THIS ROM?

No. It's not for regular users. If you think you can stand some rare, but wierd force closes you've never seen before then flash it. Meanwhile the power users will love the fact that they're using the latest software available and they can tweak here and there to help making the rom better.

In fact the rom is not bad at all. It's an early build of VibeUI MM, but the first public beta on 18 February is pretty close, so you have no choice, but get excited. :D

Moreover that Lenovo announced that they're stopping updating Lollipop.

I'll update this post with battery screen on time screenshots and Play Store working so stay tuned.

EDIT: Play Store 6.1.12 working!!
[K3 Note General] amosref:
In case you haven't noticed - there are nearly 300 pages on this thread and actually finding anything is not exactly a walk in the park.

So.. I'd be happy if you could elaborate.

And regarding the rom - which would you recommend?

Thanks.
[K3 Note General] Pumpino:
Try 2.62-3 (if you're game). There were similar issues with Marshmallow on the Moto X Play, and 2.62-3 worked for whatever reason.
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
Interestingly enough, when I was searching the web for this issue I read some comments about that SuperSU 2.67 is leading to bootloop and SuperSU 2.63 or something like that is working. So you're right. I decided just to play safe and to flash the good old v2.52

at least if u want a menu button, u just press & hold.
[K3 Note General] Pumpino:
No LED notifications in third party apps? Are you serious? And Light Manager and Light Flow don't fix this? What's the point of having a notification LED if you can't use with with the apps you use? And I thought Xiaomi was bad with locking its bootloaders...it seems there's always something with these Chinese phones.

Thanks for the instructions re. recent apps. Has the recent apps button been disabled in all recent builds? I only got my K3 on the weekend, so 1604 is my first ROM.

[K3 Note General] Pumpino:
Since realising that the notification LED doesn't work in stock, I flashed Cuoco92's Marshmallow build. It seems OK, but I think I might follow your lead and download his stable ROM to use as my daily driver.

Is the LED just green and red? I tried setting it to magenta in ChompSMS, but it remained green. Still, it works. I also noticed that his ROM has less Chinese where there should be English, which is nice.

I love your TWRP backups due to it's less bloatware approach. I noticed that your not updating your folder everytime there's a new version out.

---------- Post added at 12:27 ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 ----------

I even documented it by screenshot mate. :D It happened when I was trying to move any app to extsd. I think it's because my extsd is not "Adopted" for use in MM. If the card is not formatted by this specific method in Marshmallow you can't move apps to sd by any way it was working on Lollipop. To be honest the "SecurityIt has stopped" and some problem related to Gapps are the only FC I faced till now. But I expect more to come when you install a nice set of many different apps.

There is also a flashing yellow one. Search this thread. Both green and red are charging related but get abused for notifications in custom roms. The yellow one is probably the one intended for notifications.

I wonder if the kernel from lenovo open source would enable that one in a custom rom. Stock roms seem to support it.
[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
Actually what referred here as GREEN is actually YELLOW, so the LED modes are:

Red (Charging)

Yellow (Charge complete)

What do you mean by Dualboot ready version? Only the updater-script needs to be edited, right? I'm having exams now. So I couldn't keep up with the thread. It's really active these days unlike the days I was active. "Activeness" of this thread seems to be inversely proportional to my "activeness". :D ;) So, is 1606 the latest DEV version?

Did anyone try this TWRP 3.0.0.0: http://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-3-0-0-0-updated/
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
[MENTION=5207461]Salman A.[/MENTION] Yes, 1606 is the latest dev MM build. To flash via dualboot app you only need to edit the updater-script. And yes I'm using it as primary as part of my current multi boot setup. For that how much space VibeUI 1606 is using you can look at the screenshots I made. The /data partition is 1.76GB, but note that a have Gapps installed, also some little apps like X-plore, UC Browser, and of course the lovely Dualboot app! lol :p So a clean install will likely use around 1.5GB on your phone. A usual space requirement I would say. Shots made under the BlissPop rom, I highly recommend this rom, one of the best to date. :D

I attached the already edited updater-script for the 6.0_VIBEUI_V3.1_1606_3.149.1_DEV_K50-T5.zip , so just replace the original in the rom's zip
[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
I have not tested it myself as it's poorly ported, and in somewhat beta version. But however, I found out:

- There's bugs in it. Many.

I've had the same issue as I've flashed a stock recovery with SPflashtools on my K3. First ERROR 0x02 and then ERROR 0x10. It happens only on Marshmallow. With Lollipop, there's no warning message.

I've tried to replace WIFI and WIFI_CUSTOM as you, but no luck.

Anyway the solution is to reflash the entire NVRAM.BIN or NVRAM.IMG from TWRP or Flashtool. And the warning is gone ?

[MENTION=4728673]Cuoco92[/MENTION] Nice to know man, you comments are always helpful!

Now I have a question for you guys: Does anyone who is currently using the BlissPop rom noticed that the internal storage is always keep filling up like... by itself! Super strange, I flashed a thousand of roms till now, but never faced such a weird issue. I love the rom and don't want to ditch it because of this stupid problem. It's not the cache or dalvik, also not a data of the apps I have installed or any of the system apps. It's not the DCIM or LostDir folder. What's causing that? Just a quick example from tonight: I was having more than 1GB free internal just 2 hours ago and now I have only 127MB!! Nothing downloaded, not even Youtube, only a light browsing, but it's not the browser I checked. Ridiculous! Please anybody...

Does anyone know much about the network issue on the K3 Note? I thought my handset might be faulty but it seems to be a common issue. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmgWmt5uB2g

My phone frequently switches from 4G back to 3G, even when there is 4G signal. Also, the signal strength listed under About Phone gets stuck and doesn't change.

I installed Flymm5.5 and the issue has gone. I get a normal 4G signal which only switches to 3G for calls.

Given that this appears to be a bug in VibeUI, is there any setting I can change?
[K3 Note General] barankas:
Same here, frequently switches from 4G to 3G.

Am using 1544 DEV Modem due to Roaming issue.

My workaround:

Switch off and on 4G switch on Quick Settings whenever I see 3G, and will come back to 4G.

[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
In case you haven't noticed - there is a "search thread" field on top of every page beneath the page numbers.

VibeUI 1604 ST

I don't know by head, but if you want you can remove all apps that are in the system/preload folder, plus other system apps.

I even remove more apps than the one's i leave in my backups. You can remove system apps like: mail, calendar, gallery, file browser, etc. Use good sense, if you have a doubt, ask here if you can remove certain app, if you think it's too much hassle, just freeze it in TB and see if everything works before deleting it.

No yellow led here, only green and red. When it's fully charged it's green, when it's charging is red and all notifications are blinking green.

How about the old increasing thumbnail cache error?

Possible fix for internal memory always filling up by itself on BlissPop rom!!

Hey mates I have asked [MENTION=1125026]4pda[/MENTION] forum about my storage issue on BlissPop I described yesterday. May be we have a solution!! It looks that they're familiar with this problem and it turned out that users may face a similar issue on any other CM based rom.

The alldigital member [MENTION=1125026]4pda[/MENTION] said that the problematic file is the /data/misc/sensor/sensord.log, which is constantly eating the whole Internal memory.

Let's go ahead and fix the issue.

Possible fix for internal memory always filling up by itself on BlissPop rom!!!

So to fix the problem run this code in Terminal:

localhost # su
localhost # mount -o remount,rw /system
localhost # chmod 644 /system/bin/bmi160d
localhost # rm -f /data/misc/sensor/sensord.log
localhost # reboot

[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
I recommend a VibeUI 1604 ST Lollipop 5.1 and Androium 6.1 if you want to go for a pure Android rom. BlissPop is also very good, but you'll have to fix the storage bug using the method I posted above. Limonchello is an old rom dude, I'm pretty sure these two problems you're experiencing are related to the rom.
[K3 Note General] amosref:
Thanks! I will try one of these. much appreciated

Edit: is the VibeUI the same UI as the original Lenovo? I ask because for me it was a horrible user experience, that's why I changed over to limoncello..

I want a rom that feels as much like clean android (or cyanogenmod) as possible but that supports the LED notifications (as limoncello does).
[K3 Note General] TheDarkKnight:
Thanks. That's a bit big. I'll try anyway.

Your best ROM keeps changing all the time, eh? First it was CM. Now it's BlissPop. I see in a newer post you've changed it to Androium now. :D So, which is really the best??

[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
Yeah I'm periodically changing this list over the time. :D Actually the first rom that I called the best for K3N was the Androium rom and I still like it and as you can see from my current screenshots it's always a part of my multiboot setup. BlissPop is based on CM, but contains many additional settings. Now I'm currently on Euphoria OS 1.1 :laugh: Can't tell you what's really the best rom, it depends..but for now my list looks like that:

-1604 ST if you want VibeUI

-Androium 6 if you want pure AOSP

-BlissPop if you want a CM, but always needed more settings

I'll never recommend MIUI as it's using too much ram, but it'still a very solid OS. These are the 4 Android distributions which deserve our attention.

Vibe, AOSP, CM, MIUI and you can dualboot all of these, of course at the cost of the very little free internal storage available ~500MB-1GB. But that madness will end with the crap way Marshmallow is treating the extsd. If you still want to dualboot, but using MM, then you'll end up either using a very short list of apps on VibeUI( because you won't be able to move apps to sd, your only friend will be the Apps2SD app) OR saying bye to Android 6 at all and return to 5.1
