I want to ask someone, who tried

VIBEUI_V3.0_1544_LTT_LEMONADE

There are various bugs in this rom?

What is the quality of the cam and battery?

Which ia better lemonade or androium 5.0?
[K3 Note General] Narugawa:
Androium is the best rom I've tried, it's in my phone right now, only the problem with podcast resuming playback, but this is a bug from mediatek processor. Go Androium ;)
[K3 Note General] damanrico:
I'm using 1544 DEV atm. Is there a way to disable the annoying Securityit permission stuff?

I'm trying to restore my apps using Titanium Backup, and it keeps popping up asking me if I want to install the app, and then my whole restore batch hangs and never completes.

Disabling Securityit doesn't work, then I can't restore any apps.

Hi i have flashed VIBEUI_V3.0_1545_7.315.1_DEV_K50-T5_WCCB.zip. My network shows roaming(although roaming is off) sign and mobile data doesn't work.
[K3 Note General] xxlakis:
Turn on roaming and they'll work.Its common issue.
[K3 Note General] surcha:
Many thanks, I am now rooted and flashed the ROM suggested. However, I have noticed some apps in chinese. Guess I can uninstall these.

I also seem to have lost root access and CWM after the flash. Is this normal?
[K3 Note General] l3t0m:
Do you think Androium is better than Phoenix? They look similar and both seem to work excellent.
[K3 Note General] emptywordsss:
They both pretty much the same and in between came up this one Sense 7 v2 [UPDATE] on http://www.needrom.com/category/lenovo/serial-k/k-50/ so can try it on yourself and see which one will fit you :D

[MENTION=5106992]hackerpower[/MENTION] I'm using your 1544 DEV TRWP backup + open Gapps. Everything works fine, but Xposed doesn't work for me. I've flashed xposed-v75-sdk22-arm64.zip trough TRWP , and waited 25 minutes for the phone to boot, but it keeps being stuck on the Lenovo logo. Do you know if Xposed works with your 1544 DEV backup?

My flash log: restored your TRWP backup -> clear caches and reboot -> flash gapps -> clear caches and reboot -> flash xposed -> clear caches and reboot
[K3 Note General] EpicSauce:
I too use Androium and reckon it's excellent. I don't have any issues with podcasts resuming playback after reboots etc. The app I'm using is Pocket Casts.
[K3 Note General] Narugawa:
How u do the magic? Because u also use pocket casts (also try podcast republic, stitcher, podcast addict) and I have the same bug as many mediatek 6***

Do u did something particular? I try 3 different rom on this one and I never found the clue. Thanks for the answers!

How to get Soft keys

For all those who wants to enable soft keys on your Lenovo k3 note device.Its pretty much simple though..

Step 1: Navigate to /system/build.prop(btw you need to use Root explorer and enable the permissions (in my case i am using ES File explorer)

Step 2: Open the build.prop(in my case i am using Es Note editor) edit get inside the file and find the folloving value

qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 and change it qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

Step 3: Return to your home screen and you got the soft keys :)
[K3 Note General] oldfold:
You need to to to get another version of Titanium Backup. Some versions don't have the right privileges or permissions to do batch actions. I normal go with version 7.2.1 which never falters. I don't think the security app has any restrictions on Titanium app.
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
Well, maybe that's the problem, i have 2 sims and besides the R icon on the second sim sometimes after a reboot, i have no other problems.

Yes, it works fine, you have to enter os everytime after each flash and there's no need to wipe cache. Flash os, reboot enter os, flash su, reboot enter os, etc.

[K3 Note General] Kodaro:
Thank you! Tried it but there is one problem. The hardware buttons still work. So you have software AND hardware buttons then. Any way to disable them to make this a serious feature?
[K3 Note General] emptywordsss:
I Never try to disable the original hardware buttons dont want to experiment and brick my phone(i am too lazy to do everything from beginning) :)
[K3 Note General] damanrico:
Tried flashing everything again, the way you suggested. Xposed does flash and the phone does boot, however when I enter Settings on the phone it doesn't open (looks like it opens, but closes immediately).

Tried it a second time, same thing happens.

Tried it a third time with clearing caches etc., same problem.

I don't know what I could possibly do wrong. These are my exact steps:

1. Factory reset phone + wipe system.

2. Restore your backup.

3. Boot in OS, complete setup wizard. (Settings working).

4. Flash xposed-v75-sdk22-arm64.zip (at the third try I cleared caches after this step)

5. Boot in OS, Settings not working as described.
[K3 Note General] odegeorgela:
Ok, so I updated the Androium to 5.10 from 5.06 using the OTA updater and after that I had the R for roaming appear at the signal symbol, and can't connect to internet using mobile data except when I turn roaming on. Any solution to this?

Much obliged!
[K3 Note General] k@iserex:
I dont have this problem and I also updated trough OTA. Data connection works perfect on 4G.
[K3 Note General] windigo:
I've the same problem. After enabling roaming for my data-simcard I'm again online, but thats not what I really want.

windigo
[K3 Note General] oldfold:
You need to make sure each time you flash something you open the settings app after reboot. Then shut down and flash the next thing that's what I do so that the settings app doesn't get compromised.
[K3 Note General] odegeorgela:
So as I looked at the change log, the modem seems to have been updated. Is it possible to flash just the old modem/some other modem? (And if, where can I find these?) Or is it even likely to be a modem bug?
[K3 Note General] damanrico:
Thanks, that seems to have done the trick. I made sure to open Settings a few times between each boot/flash. Everything is working fine now.
[K3 Note General] taisto:
Works if you remove files modem_1_ltg_n.img and modem_1_lwg_n.img from

/system/etc/firmware folder in OTA update androium_5__5.1.0.zip.
[K3 Note General] odegeorgela:
But can I do this after I have already updated, or do I have to reflash to 5.06, download ota update and alter it, and then update? Could I just copy paste those files from the 5.06 zip somewhere? Hmm :)
[K3 Note General] uan:
Comment these 3 lines in /system/usr/keylayout/mtk-tpd.kl using Root Explorer (or equivalent) to become like this:

# key 172 HOME VIRTUAL

# key 139 MENU VIRTUAL

# key 158 BACK VIRTUAL

Save and reboot.
[K3 Note General] odegeorgela:
So for those having the problem with R (roaming) on Androium 5.10 this is how I solved it for me (thanks to Taisto).

1. Search the 5.10_update .zip in miXplorer (SD card/0/OTA-Updater/download/ROM/androium_5__5.1.0.zip)

2. Open it and remove files modem_1_ltg_n.img and modem_1_lwg_n.img from

/system/etc/firmware folder (I did this in miXplorer)

3. Copy the modified .zip file to the place where you have the original Androium 5.0.6.zip rom

4. Boot into TWRP and backup your data

5. Factory wipe and flash androium 5.0.6 in TWRP

6. Reboot from TWRP and once the phone is on reboot into recovery

7. Flash the modified update.zip

8. Reboot from TWRP and once the phone is on reboot into recovery

9. Restore data from backup and Voilá!

I'm not sure if all these reboots are necessary in between, but took did it the safe way for me!

One other thing I'm not sure of, is if it would have been possible to just copy paste the modem-images from the old zip to some current system folder, replacing the "faulty" modem and not having to flash anything at all. Maybe someone wiser and more experienced in android can tell you this. But thanks again to taisto!

---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 AM ----------

Can somebody running the Androium 5.1.0 tell me their version of the lenovo cam app? (com.lenovo.scg Version 4.1.492.150819.55e3be7_lite_default ?)
[K3 Note General] taisto:
You may as well replace modem_1_ltg_n.img and modem_1_lwg_n.img files with the original 5.0.6 files, so you are not forced to restore "working" backup first.
[K3 Note General] odegeorgela:
I assumed something like that, but wasn't sure though if these images were installed in some way when flashing. :)
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
You have to be rooted to use xposed.

The correct order should be: OS, SU, Gapps, Xposed.
[K3 Note General] TheDarkKnight:
Is it normal for CPU to use 2% in 4 hours?? I'm doubtful because it wasn't this way in the ROW ROM.. I think it was because I had enabled a battery saving option to limit CPU and GPU in it which is not available in this ROM..
[K3 Note General] TheDarkKnight:
This is very irritating...?

I can't set network to WCDMA only and it keeps switching to GSM all the time.. The app doesn't work and MTK settings doesn't work either.. It keeps resetting no matter what.

newest supersu

anybody have tried this newest supersu from - http://www.chinaphonearena.com/forum/Thread-Download-Newest-SuperSU
[K3 Note General] damanrico:
Your TRWP back-up is already rooted. The issue was fixed by opening Settings after each boot, so after every flash. Else Settings gets corrupted. Thanks to oldfold for the tip.

BTW, I was always one of the people who got lag on VibeUI, but on 1544 I'm not having any lag. So for people debating to go back to VibeUI, give it a shot.

A minor issue on 1544: When you allow notifications on the lock screen, notifications will disappear from the lock screen after you unlock the phone. So for example a music player notifications of what track is playing will only show up once. After that it will stay in the nofication bar as usual, but it won't show on your lock screen.
[K3 Note General] odegeorgela:
Hey! Two questions!

1) Does the K3N support quick charge? (I read somewhere that it does, but aren't sure)

2) Is quick charge a feature that has some software component, and thus eg. some custom ROMs doesn't support it?

Thanks in advance!
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
1. No

2. No

hello, my stock rom with gps test fix gps AND beidou satellites, is it safe to install with twrp the GLONASS FIX ( found at 1 post) ??? could it brick or ruin instable the phone?

to fix glonass satellites can REALLY improve accuracy... or only have more battery drain from gps use?
[K3 Note General] xxlakis:
In my opinion don't install it.It messes GPS lock so I removed it.Even without glonass GPS is very good.
[K3 Note General] realista87:
why does it messes gps lock?? in theory should improve lock with more satellites.

however in italy i can fix about 3 or 4 BEIDOU (china) satellites.... it's not bad imho. how many beidu do u fix in ur country?

So I'm finally getting sick of the ads and crapware on my K3 Note. I am on AT&T's network in US and would like to start using 4G again too.

Are any of the ROMs providing 4G support? Which ones?

Any first person experience from someone on AT&T?

Thanks guys!
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
I think all of the roms provide/support 4g. The question is, if the phone support the 4g frequency of at&t?
[K3 Note General] nunjabusiness:
Yes, that is what I am asking. :)
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
Well, you can check that with the MTK Engineering mode app. Install the app and go to: MTK settinga/band mode/sim 1/ and there you have all the frequencies that the phone support.
[K3 Note General] nunjabusiness:
Thanks for that. Interesting app.

It shows LTE Modes 1,3,7,38,39,40 and 41 checked. But I don't know what that means.
[K3 Note General] vonuzu:
Check here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks
[K3 Note General] nunjabusiness:
So AT&T only has 2,4 and 17. That sucks pretty hard.

How lame of Lenovo to limit things like that. I really like the phone's performance and display.

But the ads are really getting old and I will definitely need to flash a different ROM to get rid of them.

If you're rooted there's a app for the adds. Try Google for adaway.

Root has nothing to do with led working for notifications.

Which Vibe UI did you have? Did you set all the right permissions in the security app?
[K3 Note General] oldfold:
Does anybody think we can maybe get multiwindow ROM for k3 note sometime in future? I saw an S6 based ROM on needrom but it was pulled down. I think this massive screen would do well with multi-window or floating window. Or maybe vibe-ui can develop to be multiwindow in future.
[K3 Note General] k@iserex:
Well its a one feature that you put in to your mind and hype yourself about how cool its gonna be using it and then when you try it its just meh and forget about it. Of course Im speaking from my experience on lg g3 that has the feature built in on stock ROM but then again I could see peeps using it from time to time. We need a bigger screen to fully utilize it.
[K3 Note General] oldfold:
Hmm ..really! But I'm guessing there no company that had really worked on the multi window more than Samsung and I think the experience on the LG can be a bit rusty than on a galaxy flagship. What do you think? And you say 5.5" is not big enough for multi window in your opinion?

[MENTION=3639565]vonuzu[/MENTION] the above is actually correct. I hadn't checked the theme section. They have taken away the best stock theme with the round clock but it's no biggie.

Thanks a lot.. Let me put it to the test. I kinda ignored it since nobody said it actually worked.

Sorry just realized it's another widget not the one that is built into stock.. It kinda looks htc-like but I'll work with it since the devs decided to kill the sweet looking round widget with DEV 1546

i tested in this way, i turned off wifi on router and waited android disconnected wifi....waited just 10 seconds and then REactivated on router wifi on.

if all work good, wifi should be fixed by android only 10 minutes AFTER...........instead it does reconnect just after about 15 seconds.....from the time i re activate on router.

THIS IS NOT OK.............

i tried to do this build.prob hack ecause i have an HUGE alarm from android system: com.android.server.wifimanager.action.start scan at about 3 times per minute!!! THIS IS KILLING MY BATTERY

how can i calm down this alarm???? it's something related the "wifi scan"..... but i can't understand what wakelock/alarm is the bad boy...... and how to reduce that alarm

[K3 Note General] k@iserex:
No sweet :) ?
[K3 Note General] mickey78:
One more for you if you don't mind. Since this is an official ROM, do you get OTA updates so that you don'T need to flash when you are ready to install new release for like a regular unrooted/unmodded phone?
[K3 Note General] k@iserex:
Guess you'll get OTA notification of newer version when and if that comes, but you will not be able to install it cos youv got custom recovery and stock official OTA can only be flash trough stock recovery which you and I don't have. Youll be able to download but not able to install. So we will have to wait for a prepacked .zip file to be able to flash.

dual sim slot with 4g, double tap wake up. led notification all ok.

got bugs with play store , and titanium backup unable to backup/restore from SD card. But able to move apps to SD card.

Hope the next version will fix this issue. The last rom 1529 mod have no issue with TB backup/restore issue at all.

if there is a patch can fix this, hope hackpower will upload it.
