Bro 4k videos are not supported by our soc mediatek 6752 ...so there is NO WAY we can capture at 4k ..I top have open camera and that option is for namesake...k3 note doesn't have necessary hardware to process 4k videos...hope it helps..
[K3 Note General] emptywordsss:
I think this Feature is still in development and its experimental(Like the Multiwindow feature) ...Hope they ll put this to work in the Final Build
[K3 Note General] buddy127:
I did not knw we have multi window support by default ?? Since which version ?:o
[K3 Note General] emptywordsss:
It's not set by default cuz is still experimental feature(slow and buggy) and it appeared i think in 1610 dev build...In order ot make it work you need to be Rooted >installed Es file explorer/Root explorer>navigate to Root/System/build.prop and

change

[COLOR="Red"]ro.build.type=user to ro.build.type=userdebug[/COLOR]

and Restart.After that go into developer option and enable the New "multi-window mode" option and see if they improved it :fingers-crossed:

The highest charging amperage I've seen on this phone.

Rom Sense V5. I recommend the Rom, it's pure AOSP and I replaced Androium 6 with it. Super fast charging on Sense V5. I never went further the 2A mark even on Vibe!
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
No, there was a reason I wrote that. I have many examples of people having problems extracting the files from .tar archives using WinRar or 7-zip. This is mainly a Linux stuff that's why Cygwin handles it without hassle. Also you can download and install it within a minute.

about the t3s model

Friends, i cant find the answer on the topic. I have the model LENOVO K3 NOTE K50-T3S. Where can I find the latest rom for this model? Can i upgrade to android 6.0, how? Thanks a lot for any help

You can see the battery temp from the screenshot. ~35°C What I can say is that the phone doesn't get unusually hot when charging.

It's the same phone. Just flash any of the roms available for K50-T5.

Hello guys im curently using the official chinese 1535 ST with hackerpower's debloated and rooted backup. I was totaly satisfied with it since it is simple fast stable and clean. But for the last week i ve been experiencing some issues such as phone unlocking or restarting on itself, audio shuttering and dissapearence of the radio app ( :eek: ) so im thinking of upgrading to something else. Could you guys suggest a rom (costum or not i dont care) with the same characteristics i mentioned above (stable simple reliable etc).. Would 1604 be my choise or is there anything better out there? Thanks

Edit: i have an ota update to 1614 w8ing should i go for it to save me some trouble? is it any good?
[K3 Note General] zwiebug:
I have the problem with the latest DEV versions (1615 and 1617) that widgets do not work in any other launcher than the stock launcher. every time i try to add a widget in, say nova launcher, i says "settings have been stopped" and the widgets selection menu does not show up. anyone has experienced the same thing?
[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
1535 st is quite outdated now. You should have left it.

The most perfect rom ever made for k3 note (which i know many will agree) is the official 1604 st (vibe 3.0, Lollipop. Not any other 1604). Go for it.

From your comment i am assuming you don't prefer installing roms so often. So don't update to Marshmallow because it is still not perfect.

---------- Post added at 05:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

Yes happened to me too. Guessing this is just a disadvantage of vibeUi interface in these release.
[K3 Note General] thinkgadgetsme:
I have also experienced same issue with 1615 but with the Tesla unread app. I am not using any homescreen widget so not sure about the widgets. I can confirm that this issue did not exist till 1613.
[K3 Note General] zu4lu:
yes, go for the st1604, definitely the best rom for our k3
[K3 Note General] Rayvernos:
Thanks a lot, seems great so far.. Btw is there any fm radio app i can use with this rom?
[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
FM Radio for Lenovo K3 Note

There should already be one installed by default.

But if you need a row version, without all those chinese texts and non-helpful unnecessary features, here is the ROW FM Radio for Lenovo K3 Note:

Hi hackerpower!

I'm running Cyanogenmod 12.1 on my Lenovo K3 Note. After some research on the Web, i found a way to install Dolby Atmos on my device on Techolite.com...but that doesn't seem to work. When I open the app, it says Unfortunately, Dolby Atmos has stopped. Now even AudioFX has stopped working. Please describe a method to install Dolby Atmos on our devices !

Thanks!
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
Hi,

Maybe this helps, I made it work on Cheskin's CM12.1 ST5 with first!! disable audio FX, do not remove it. I have SuperSU and Busybox installed.

Downloaded Dolby Atmos from here "http://xdaforums.com/android/software/viperaudio-viperatmos-3-8-sq-driver-t3289075"

Myself using now ViPERAtmos 5.4 Stock.zip, but also used 5.5 Sony beat edition.

Just flash it with TWRP

K3 Note K50-t5 Need help

Hello guys. I have to say that I am big noob for stuffs like this. :D

Yesterday I got my Lenovo K3 Note K50-t5 and I got shocked when I saw that many stuffs ,aplications are in Chinese language.

When I turned it on, I saw there is option to upgrade my system. And I done it . Now my phone is at adroid version 6.0 ,and VIBEUI_V31_1614_5.....

And I dont even have Google play store after upgrade. And now I have even more chinese applications that I cant remove. And phone is in ENGLISH/CHINESE language.

Can someone help me ,and give me step by step tutorial what to do. What is best to download ,what is best to install with links ofc.

Please help me ,cos this is really annoying me.

Thanks in advance
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
Hi, I was so stupid:D to do a "format all" in the past, on Indian stock I'm able to get serial and everything back with MauiMeta and SP meta.

But I'm curious to know why when I go back to a VIBE UI or to a CM12.1 rom the serial changes to completely different "hardware?" number.

Are Indian ROW different from VIBEUI rom's, serial on Indian ROW get stored in Custom_SN file in Nvram with SP meta tool but doesn't seems to be read on other rom's.

So has anyone different serial number on VIBE UI rom's than printed behind battery or is this due the formatting I did, also on older, before VibeUi 1604 stock, it does not show any serial?
[K3 Note General] gethrodrak:
Cant boot it now

I used this steps here ..

http://xdaforums.com/k3-note/general/sp-flash-tool-tutorial-to-install-twrp-t3346041

And installed it.. Now my Lenovo K3 cant boot at all. What to do guys ?
[K3 Note General] Meteordust:
You flashed TWRP 3.0.0-3? Sp flash tool should show big green OK sign after flashing TWRP.

I always push first download button in SP flash after selecting twrp scatter file, than connect phone with usb cable without battery and push battery in phone and SP flash starts flashing.

Never do a format all, you will loose your nvram (imei, bt, wifi and serial numbers) Make always backup of your nvram with TWRP.

To go into recovery hold power and volume up/down at same time after you flashed TWRP, it should go into twrp recovery. Advanced Wipe phone (leave internal storage/sd card and otg unchecked), copy a suitable rom for you to internal storage and install with TWRP.

But!! Read first page of this thread carefully about flashing rom's/recovery, better know what you doing than experimenting with your phone and eventually brick it. Or better follow Emptywordsss post #4524.
[K3 Note General] emptywordsss:
Well mate that Rom that u downloaded and installed is the latest Stable from the chinese market that's why it not comes with Gapps pre-installed and have only chinese/english support all hat is explained Here

This is the original stock rom from Lenovo for India market or ROW (rest of world), has playstore etc. preinstalled.

K50A40 and K50-t5 is the same phone.

Guys,

Is there a way to modify lowest ring/notification/media volume on BlissPop 4.0.3 by Kaka and on CM 12.1 Beta4 Kaka? Even on first level is to loud for me.

Is there some configuration file to modify or... ?

Thanks!
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
Review and Screens: Latest Resurrection Remix from today!

Fixed version. Gapps working.

No FCs. The Rom is fast, all working, no dt2w, numerous settings. The file manager still hangs, but that's not a big deal. Chinese keyboard preinstalled. Storage bug presented - you must follow the procedure applicable to BlissPop.

Make sure you DENY the SuperSU permission to Settings at the beggining!!

Flash Gapps AFTER the 1st boot NOT BEFORE!

Note: I was having problems with opengapps and slimgapps this time, but finally the 64bit gapps from nexus 9 have worked! The link to them is in the 2nd post on this thread.

Available on needrom

Big Thx to [MENTION=5450421]sandeep.sethi[/MENTION]
[K3 Note General] ivenux:
Thanks very much for the quick review & screenshots. I just want to ask why deny SuperSU permission. Isn't it needed for Settings options?What will happen if permission is granted?
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
That's what the developer of the rom has instructed us. The Settings are working fine, just deny the first SuperSu prompt at start.

http://www.needrom.com/download/vib...ev_k50-t5-full-rom-multil-frameworkrootgapps/

so far this is one of best k3 note roms i have experienced. very smooth. all apps work well. i simply disabled ( frozen) all not used apps, and use greenify to save some more battery power.

Plus when using built in SecurityIt, it will delete your TWRP backup by default. so you need to un-check it after scan.
[K3 Note General] olgutza34:
Every VIBE_UI based ROM with SecurityIT integrated wanted to delete my TWRP backups. I wonder how it is possible to except microSD from scanning under cleaning section. Otherwise I have to carefully inspect what is proposed for deletion.
[K3 Note General] samsungandriod:
Just a question: do we need to use greenify for Android 6.0? i thought that 6.0 has all built in function very similar like greenify's power saving features. has any one compared with the greenify on and off how the battery performance difference?

anyway, the new 1617 has much better battery life compare to the S424 and previous other roms.

Does anyone have any ubnormal battery usage in the official 1604 ST? I recentltly upgraded from 1535 and i get almoast 1 hour less SOT.. Funny thing is that even tho i have supersu installed, wakelock detector doesnt prompt for root access and i cant use it to detect what causes the high cpu usage im having.. Any suggestions anyone?
[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
Backup, then wipe everything and Do a clean install of 1604 st. You're having problems due to dirty flash.

----------------------------------​

No proximity bug here. Been using 1617 dev for 3 days now.

----------------------------------​

Flash opengapps arm64 5.0 pico gapps using twrp.

----------------------------------​

I don't use greenify. Still getting 5 hours (more or less) SOT and only 1% battery drop overnight. Using 1617 dev.

PS. Of course i uninstalled all bloatwares and lenovo services. Plus, always put the phone in Super batter saver mode before sleep.
[K3 Note General] samsungandriod:
StoneHenge, what setting do you have on your phone dialler ? i was wondering if some setting change caused the proximity sensor ill function?

Not surprised. Using the corresponding stock cleaner app on Flyme deleted my 1.5GB+ Titanium backup. I was so angry when I saw that. Only one reason why I don't like Flyme OS.

---------- Post added at 19:22 ---------- Previous post was at 19:13 ----------

I'm little late quoting this post, but this is important and I want to confirm it. The percentage drop of battery is not related to the Rom, but it's a hardware problem of the battery itself. Not only that the battery is only 2900mah, but now and this percentage drop. That means we only have around 65-70% of battery compared to the others.
[K3 Note General] Mahdigh08:
on vibeui 1604 ST i flashed opengapps arm64 and play store solved but i have problem with notifications, notifications don't show on lock screen !!!!! in ROW rom we have setting for notification on lock screen but i coudn't find any setting related for it in Vibeui 1604 !
[K3 Note General] br0wni3:
The chinese firmware doesn't have this feature! Only ROW ROMs support lockscreen notifications.

I recommend installing one of the following apps:

1) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=codes.simen.l50notifications&hl=de

If you are using this app you can use the lockscreen that comes with the chinese rom. You have to play with the setting a bit to display the notifications only on lockscreen.

2) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.appplus.hilocker&hl=de

This app is a new lockscreen which supports notifications. I use this myself and it has a lot of useful features.

Both apps are tested with 1604 stable.

S424 wifi advanced setting: keep wifi on only when charging. i have found that the my S424's wifi is always on regardless if i set it to never or only on when charging. anyone else experience this? is there a way to turn it off when the phone is sleeping?

---------- Post added at 03:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 AM ----------

question, there is a sleep setting on the quick drop down setting., it has 15sec, 1min, etc. is it a delay time after screen is off? does it mean if i set it to 30mins, the phone will not enter sleep mode until 30mins later after the screen is off?
[K3 Note General] samsungandriod:
I restored my 1617 rom today. and everything is working fine. i think the reason of my proximity sensor issue may be related that i had used Titanium to 'freeze' too many system related apps.

but now everything is just working fine. so i am on 1617 again. i really like the battery life of this rom.

Are you serios mate....i simple Google search will answer that question...

Its been Told like a 1000000 times mate that K50-t5 is equal to k50a40 :: Is there a difference between the K50-T5 and K50-A40?

No! Both models are identical. The only difference is that K50-T5 is sold in China, while the K50-A40 is sold in India. This means that ROMs listed here will be compatitable with both models. Also, ROMs should work with the Teena (ceramic speakers) model as well.

I must Add that is exactly the same with the K50-t3 model(difference in the basebands) A7000+,a7000turbo(only different modems)
