I guess 4 hours SOT would be max on our device. I was getting 3/3.5 hours on cucos92 ROM, exactly what I was getting on LG G3 whit same battery capacity and on SD 801 and that device have 2K resolution. I tought I would get at least 4.5 hours on 1080p display and this soc. Well, just flashed 1529 ST and will need couple of days to settle the battery. I consider my self a power user when it comes in terms what apps and how many are running and syncing in the background and how often I use the display :) For now ST 1529 seems faster then cucos92 Dev ROM, so that's good, but vibeui 2.8 is a bit more graphically polished.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackerpower:
It's the same because you are using a recovery that's not fully functional.

This means that you haven't backed up anything, check the size of your backup folder.

I warned everyone i could that they are only a few fully working recoveries, but people like to invent and try other recoveries.

There are 1 or 2 CWM fully working recoveries but they don't mount internal storage, only sd card so i didn't post them. Also TWRP is better, faster and has more options.

Check my index thread.

That must be due to the roms own ram management system. For example when using greenify in various roms i always would get the message that auto hibernation was being blocked/disabled. Also when using 1weather persistent temp notifications they would disappear after a while. Try 1532 dev, for me it fixed almost everything.

Lenovo K3 Note Locked Bootloader?

I followed all the instructions to root and flash the latest version of viber, although something went wrong. Apparently my phone is now running the latest version of viber but it doesn't look like nothing has changed.

I tried to go through the steps again, as my phone no longer has CWM flashed for whatever reason, so I have tried to re-flash as it's now showing the stock lenovo recovery but it is telling me that the boot loader is now locked.

Any ideas?

It sounds like you lost your imeis. Common problem, check my thread for fix.

No, if you remove it you also lose app manager.

I don't really care about facebook or it's messenger, don't use it.

Right, I followed the instructions step by step. I then installed the Vibe Rom (Latest one in your sig) by using the CWM recovery and then selecting it on CWM. The ROM is now installed and working fine although the problem is for whatever reason CWM is now no longer on my phone.

CWM has been replaced back to the stock Lenovo Recovery. Whenever I try to re-flash CWM it is telling me that it has failed as "download for partition recovery is not allowed" (won't let me upload screenshot). If I then type command fastboot oem unlock this is also not allowed.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackerpower:
That subject has already been answered a 1000 times, there's no spoon feeding here, search the threads and use google.

That's the message you get, but your bootloader isn't locked. There's simply a file in the stock rom that reflashes the stock recovery at boot.

Which stock rom? Contact syncing and playstore are related with gapps installation, not the rom.

Which message do you get on your phone about the sims?

I don't know what have you done or tried to install on your phone, but whatever you did ruined the sound driver. My advice is to wipe/format everything and do a clean install.

So I've tried twice now to install HPs 1532, and both times I get some serious issues. I am hoping someone can shed some light on this for me.

So I restored the back up in TWRP, and it booted up slowly as expected, it took a while to "optimize apps", then instantly flashed a message up saying "google play services has stopped". After closing that message, it appears again and again. I tried opening play store to update the google play services, but it says it can't connect. I figured GAPPS needed updating and so I downloaded slim GAPPS from HP's index thread and installed the zip. After that, the phone didn't boot (Got stuck at the VIBE UI screen), so I restored my old 1524 rom.

That was yesterday, so I tried again today and ended up with the same result. Can anyone assist me with this?
