My question is, Can coming ota updates 1611, 1612 bla bla be flashed over this 1610 twrp backup?
[K3 Note General] Aditya781:
I think I have them.

But I will still try the app.
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
Change rom then.

The app is just for lost imei's, nothing else.

Ask [MENTION=5048731]911-Future_Maker[/MENTION], he used to use that rom.
[K3 Note General] oldfold:
I think the battery life on Android 6.0 ROMs is below par. I have been on 6.0 for three weeks now and none of the vibe ROMs it taking me through the day as properly as on 5.1. I don't know if I'm the only one but I will go back to 1604 ST just to confirm
[K3 Note General] cmug:
I had issues with battery drain on 1609 but nobody has complained about battery life so I think it must be something wrong with the flashing of rom\gapps. Needless to say I went back to 1604 after 3 days. I'll wait for 1610 to come out and try it again.
[K3 Note General] oldfold:
1610 is already out. We are waiting for 1611 ask [MENTION=5106992]hackerpower[/MENTION] . So you mean gapps is what's causing battery drain!?
[K3 Note General] E.U.A:
Anyone have original lenovo link for 1610 ?
[K3 Note General] cmug:
well, I use cwm so I'll wait a couple more days for the whole rom.

I can't point my finger on what was causing it, but in my case wlan consumption was around 50 - 60 %, thus topping the screen. So it would discharge a lot even on stand by.

[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
No, you'll have to flash stock boot. img and recovery fir it to work.

[K3 Note General] facerneidiz:
Where can I download stock boot image?
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
Just download the entire 1609.zip, extract the boot.img and flash it via TWRP.

Don't forget that you'll need to flash stock recovery right after you flash boot.img or else the phone won't pass the boot logo.
[K3 Note General] hackerpower:
I still couldn't find it. I ota updated from 1609 to 1610, around 30MB.

What about storages swapping places? External memory is main and internal is secondary issue?
[K3 Note General] Honusnap:
Lol ?
[K3 Note General] DanielDEV:
Works like a charm for me!

Performance are so good without any thro'(downclock)

Sadly It doesnt come with knock knock open (to light up the screen).
[K3 Note General] k@iserex:
Which is it:

it works for you cos its not an issue, apps install on internal by default,

or it works that way by design, apps go to external by default?

Is this ROM stable enough to be a daily driver, I mean does everything works out of the box? No proximity issues, notifications go trough, no lags when RAM is low, touch issues, etc.. Hows the battery comparably to stock ROM? Give a little more info on your first hand experience! I like AOSP design language and would like to try it. I mean I will try it for sure, but would like your honest opinion.

[K3 Note General] Pe3ball:
No problem mate.Just be careful not to delete it again or some other system app :) ;) .There are two versions down to the page one of them is the newest,chech the number of the version ;)
[K3 Note General] DanielDEV:
Well the sd card used as default, but there is something weird... out of 30 apps I downloaded, 15 on the sd, an the rest on internal.

Anyway, give me 3-4 days to check it. For now, the performance are the best (more than the ST roms), and why? Because the nexus rom based on nexus rom, which doesn't downclock the cpu at 45C to prevent harm to the cpu. I need to find more info about the CPU to make sure it is safe.

Did anyone manage to get this working? What it seems to do is modify "/data/nvram/APCFG/APRDEB/WIFI", and set the bytes at 197 and 262 to 1, and finally restart the "wifi" system service

[K3 Note General] Scorchgid:
a few bugs

I've found the following issue

Notification light doesn't work apart from charging, personally I could care

Internal storage is not the first storage. This is an issue as 15 gb of my music is on my SD card, I don't need applications there as well.

Volume Control is not extendable so you'll have to install a third party app to manage the other volumes. Can can of course set media when in youtube and alarms in clock but if you want to do it from the home screen you'll need to find another way.

Facebook Contact sync does not work, I believe this is the same issue that most leading devices have. The phone broke for me when I tried to install http://xdaforums.com/android/development/facebook-contact-sync-lollipop-cm-aosp-t3034881 ~ So I advise you NOT to install it!

I haven't installed xposed as I believe all ARM64 devices are surfing from the same bootloop issue if someone could incident when the be found a version of xposed that works and link us to the version they used that would be appreciated.

---------- Post added at 12:12 ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 ----------

See my post above, aside from those issues, it is a very stable rom
[K3 Note General] Fexo:
I have the ROW ROM with the SD card set as the default. Some of the apps do show up on internal memory (settings, apps, downloaded). If I try to move to the SD card, it says that part of the app cannot be moved and the app still shows up as being on internal memory.

However....... if I go on to settings, storage, SD card, apps I see that all of the downloaded apps are actually there.

Confusing.
[K3 Note General] stephendt0:
+1, I found this a lot better than the ROW ROM in terms of overall usability, and that's saying something. Performance and RAM management is MUCH better, which is the number 1 reason I ditched ROW. I enabled on-screen buttons via build.prop as the stock button configuration was driving me up the wall.

On the topic of Xposed, I posted a log on the Xposed thread for 5.1 - if anyone knows MTK devices well, they might be able to tell us what's going on. Xposed would make this ROM perfect.

See the quoted file for the attachment.
[K3 Note General] Scorchgid:
And in regards to my question about the ROM you're currently using? you said there were some issues with AOSP_5.1_LEMONADE
[K3 Note General] stephendt0:
1. Wi-Fi data throughput seems to sporadically stop working - tried disabling IPv6, issue remains.

2. Facebook videos will not play whatsoever - not in browser or in app. Will crash the facebook app.

3. No double tap to wake

4. No LED controls

5. Sound output is poor out of the box - there are three EQ apps (wtf? all that's really needed is viper4android) and output is weirdly quiet - needs to be adjusted in MTK engineering mode

6. Brightness control doesn't work properly with adaptive brightness

7. A little bloatware, easily removed. Replaced Adfree with Adaway and removed App Quarantine Pro
[K3 Note General] Scorchgid:
The brightness, double tap to wake and LED are similar issues in Nexus ROM as well I believe.

Doesn't Xposed solve some of these issues?

Tried it, auto brightness seemed to work fine, fb videos did indeed crash, but there's still no fb contact sync working.

Bloatware is annoying, I'm going backto Nexus. And I'll wait for xposed to be fixed.
[K3 Note General] stephendt0:
I'm not having problems with brightness, although you can use Xposed to tweak that. I mainly wanted Xposed for gravitybox enhancements and easy button remapping (I'm prepared to remap buttons the hard way though). The latter two could theoretically be fixed with Xposed but I am not sure how that would work on our device.
[K3 Note General] facerneidiz:
Thank you. BTW anyone here tried 3.5 1610. A guy is claiming it to be official update for the ROW version and he is uploading it.
[K3 Note General] karthikdeep:
Anyone else on hackerpower's vibe 1610 DEV rom?

how's the battery holding up?

and any major bugs?

I for one cannot see the usage of ram when i tap the recent apps key.
[K3 Note General] 911-Future_Maker:
I used AICP for a while and no problem with signal lost, emergency mode or something. BlissPop which is my daily driver also don't have any sim card issues.

[MENTION=7282035]Aditya781[/MENTION] Head over to this Mega folder where I uploaded two files: IMEI fix and Signal fix, which were originally made for BlissPop rom, but they should work on AICP also as the two roms are pretty much the same.
[K3 Note General] elrasho:
I'm going to give this ROM a go: K3_NOTE_MM_6.0_1610_v15_ROW_D_GOOGLE_CUOCO92.zip

How do we know that it's official/legit? Wait i was invited to this fb group a long time ago...so it must be a row rom from India! Which means multilanguage! Will try it later...

Now that i dirty restored my 1610 backup over 1604 and finally got gapps working without fc, this rom appears!!

I figured it out what the nvram wifi error is, it changes wifi mac adress each time you turn wifi on/off.

I was almost figuring it out...

File browser has new interface

There's none option For HOME>launcher

When u want to go in Options menu it poping up a msg for Options or Wifi Options(Also strange)

That isn't VibeUI, it's FakeUI, those menus aren't VibeUI, they're AOSP, much like the other old so called "official" indian row (translation was horrible) roms.

Have been using this phone for 2 months now and am quite disappointed. The camera quality is below average in indoor conditions and Battery life is very bad. I come from Redmi 1s which provided about 25 hours of Battery backup with 4 hours of SOT, with K3 Note, I get about 18-20 hours with 2.5-3 hours of SOT under the same usage. Any recommended ROM with exceptional battery life?
[K3 Note General] samsungandriod:
install greenify which will improve battery life. also if you can install custom rom. for me i have 1610 Cuoco92 rooted custom rom together with greenify the battery life is quiet OK. you may also check the network app, and also disable those gps apps if you are not using them. I the securitylt, uncheck those pure background data , uncheck auto start, also the gps.

It will prolong only the standby time on battery. When you're using the phone the positive effect from Greenify is minimal.

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

I won't call the camera quality bad at all. It's not perfect, but still above average. I somewhat agree for the battery life not being so good. I get around 3.5h-4h SOT on a daily basis. But may be you're expecting too much? Even Note 4 has an average SOT of just 5-6.5h.

So just because [MENTION=4728673]Cuoco92[/MENTION] is working on it it's official? lol

Which version of camera are you using and on which ROM? because the camera is poor all round. I have not seen any improvement whatsoever and I think even amateur companies like infinix are making devices with Sony 13mp camera that is better than on K3 Note

You can access the sim management by tapping and holding on data icon on the quick settings.

You can also switch all data connections from apps permanently by going to network settings (tap and hold 4G icon in quick settings)

And the settings with Google option is like in stock 6.0 on the Nexus.

The camera on MIUI is awesome. Next is the camera on Vibe. Again, the camera may be poor when you compare it to S6 or G4 cam, but how is this fair? No these phone cost 4 times more than K3 Note.

What I found is that aparatus by itself is not that bad at all but software, cam app and drivers can vary. For me camera from flyme 5 ROM produces very nice shoots outside, solidly crisp whit decent amount of details all around and acceptable noise, better then vibe cam and way better then cm/aosp. In indoor or low light environments shoots are sub par and this is where optimization is needed in software compartment. Before k3 note I was using lg g3 which has excellent camera for smartphone and by that comparison k3 note sucks balls. Of course we all need to look at thinks in perspective and in that manner lenovo k3 note is one of best smartphone in the market in all hardware and ROM category's inside 150/160$ or less mark.
