You nees to follow the steps EXACTLY as it states.

Make sure you allowed the permissions.

And Restart the device a couple of times. That should do it

[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
I just found out something and want to let everybody know that 1609 DEV replaces the custom recovery with stock recovery.

(Previously my TWRP didn't get replaced by flashing official roms)

It's not a problem for me anyway, but a piece of caution for those without frequent access to a pc.
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
So you're just applying the updater-script from 1608 as it is 1:1?

[MENTION=6918298]emptywordsss[/MENTION] I'm downloading the rom right now, will try to flash it over 1608. I'll look into the updater-script to see what's going on. What error it's throwing on you? Did you noticed that the " Patching system unconditionally " went too fast?

Try to remove these lines:

getprop("ro.product.model") == "Lenovo K50-t5" || abort("This package is for \"Lenovo K50-t5\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.model") + "\".");

These lines verify the system image and WILL cause ERROR while flashing if you have a custom rom (or corrupted/rooted official rom) installed. It checks if you have a official stock rom installed or not. So you should delete them too.

[MENTION=5048731]911-Future_Maker[/MENTION] mate "Patching system unconditionally " went too fast and i think was the Error 7 within that

By the way no more NVRAM Wifi error anymore :good:
[K3 Note General] stone_henge:
I didn't have any problems on clean install. Use the script i provided on a few posts back.
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
Flashed 1609 over 1608 just fine. I removed only the lines I posted above. I tried if they fixed the security app force close and indeed it's fixed now. Sadly you can't move apps to extsd because that's how the ****ty MM is working! If you choose your extsd in the "Change Storage" pop up dialog the process fails with a "Cannot move app" toast message.
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
Yes, for example if you have supersu installed it will detect it and will reject the update process. I didn't have SuperSU yet installed that's why I succeeded with the flashing without removing these.

Hi,

How can i flash 1609.?

I don't recommend using Twrp 3.x version, but in your case that's not the problem. Download the updater-script for 1609 attached by stone_henge a few posts ago.
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
I flashed it and it didn't replaced my recovery. It also didn't pass the boot logo after flash, maybe because i have that su script that prevents from losing root and it was trying to replace the recovery... mmm.

Also, even my TWRP backups of 1609 are not working! If i restore a backup of 1609, it ends up in stucked boot logo!

Hello, I recently flashed aicp on my phone and did some performance tweaking. Couple of days ago Low storage warning appeared so I cleared around 1 gb, after a while it appeared again so I cleared another 1 gb last night. Today morning my storage space ran out! In Settings > Storage it showed available space 0 Mb ? but the bar above showed that available space was more than half!? I cleared cache partition ( which was around 500 mb according to ES file browser) through CWM recovery and rebooted the phone and found that available storage space was more than 6 gb ?! I checked now the available space which is now 5 gb ?! I did not install / download anything after flashing aicp ( except gapps and restoring my apps through Titanium Backup). What is happening with me? ?

Got error 0x02 after trying to slove the error by replacing files.

BUT, I like to state that, they fixed the dark camera problem and android keyboard AOSP not working issue from 1608 in 1609

See in the screenshots mates everything is good no errors
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
Guys note that this error won't come out always, but usually only when two or more routers are using the same network. For example I'm running two routers bridged. I can connect to the first no problem, but I get nvram err 0x10 for the bridged router.

Now an important question on other topic regarding VibeUI MM: Did anyone tried if FolderMount, Apps2SD and similar programs that can bind/mount folders from internal fo external are finally working? These had never worked on VibeUI LP, but no issues on CM or Aosp.

I've read this tutorial too, and...I'm sorry to say that...but this is the WRONG WAY...[emoji30]

Each framework have a different build, with impovrements and performance adjustments.

If you put the same framework to each version, you'll never reach a full stability, and some apps will not properly works.

For this kind of operation, you need a flashable zip...because it's better [emoji6]

At last...before you follow this method, install morelocale...or learn how to mod a framework [emoji6]

Well, i went back to earlier times yesterday night...

Tried flashing 1609 with twrp 3.0.0-2 and it didn't flash properly, rebooted by itself stuck at boot logo, also it has a few bugs and internal storage doesn't appear while connected to the PC, with 2.8.7.2r9 everything got flashed properly and my recovery got replaced by the stock chinese one with no english option!

Still got NVRAM wifi error, after a full wipe it's still there.

Tried fastbooting a new recovery, stock still there, tried sp flashtool, didn't flashed properly, tried flashing a whole new rom that already had CWM incorporated, got tool dl image fail...:eek:

Had to flash Indian row rom, next fastbooted twrp, restored my 1604 ST backup and i'm back :victory:

My advice? Flash the already rooted liuxingghost 1609 to try the rom out and uninstall the 4 added (and all the other) unuseful apps. It's much easier and you skip a lot of hassle. Not to mention having to flash an older patched boot.img to be able to get root.

Now the issue is finding a workarounf for the wifi nvram wifi error...will try out a few fixes (HxD-Hexeditor might work) tonight report and later post a TWRP backup :highfive:

All the MM VibeUI roms are like that. What do you mean by, they fixed?

[K3 Note General] emptywordsss:
To be honest yesterday before u and [MENTION=6026840]stone_henge[/MENTION] posted the updater script i tried to replace the whole damn script from 1608(i know it was a stupid idea) but u know when u want something u keep trying and after flashing the first part in Twrp(i was using the latest 3.0.0.2) the phone started to vibrate and i was scared to death of loosing it but anyway phone started and ended with boot of course. From that moment i tried to boot in recovery but the chinese recovery was there and i flashed the indian Row to recover my phone but i check the "Format all+download " instead of Download" only and for some reason i believe that is the reason of the NVRAM wifi error didn't appear on my phone.And yes later on i just played for about 10 min with the indian stock and flashed the Twrp 2.8.7.4 by leishui via sp flash tool successfully. I am confused now how i dodge the Nvram wifi error issue.. Btw now i saw your question. So step by step everytime i do this: advanced wipe/wipe dalvik cache/cache/system/data/internal storage then format Data and proceed to installing the Rom
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
The only difference from me is that you wipe internal storage, which i don't think has nothing to do with the nvram error.

Well i'll see later, thanks for the feedback :highfive:

BTW, the 1609 rom seemed faster and the boot time is much faster!

I am now on DEV 1609 flashed it the hard/long way and everything is alright. no errors or anything to complain about. Flash 1609 with updated script - boot and setup, flash root (the phone got stuck on boot), flash patched boot from 1608, then flash SuperSU, then reboot, flash gapps and boot/setup and flashed Xposed v80 and restore data from 1608 and continue with life in the new era.

---------- Post added at 09:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:06 AM ----------

Hey mister, you need to understand that the scatter file is what carries the information of the file you're flashing. So you cannot use a scatter file from the ROM zip to flash a recovery.. Download a recovery zip with its own scatter file and load it accordingly.

I am trying to flash "TWRP 2.8.7.0 by cheshkin & SevenMaxs" which is present under flashable through sp flash tool/adb on page 2. usb debug mode and oem unlock is selected in dev options. After selecting the scatter file for twrp 2.8.7.0 and selecting same recovery.img and clicking on download button but nothing happens...

I am not sure where it is going wrong. Here i am attaching latest log files from sp flash tools. May be log files can help you understand the issue and than you can suggest a solution.
