Yeah, and this is the most perfect and features rich rom I have ever used on Lenovo A2010. Thanks for porting this. ? and I got another minor issues, the compass app of the notification drawer is not working, when turning on it only shows initializing... Will it fixed if I install a 3rd party compass app?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
Our phone don't have sensor for compass(Magnetometer). So, compass will never on our phone.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Puspen Rath:
Thanks Manish, for your reply. I have tried your cm app update on this rom every thing was perfect except of the dialer, it suddenly just disappearing after calling someone, though I can still use USSD codes perfectly, but can't call anyone. Is there any solution available for this problem?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
Can someone port in any Android Marshmallow ROM? Sorry for a bit of harsh while asking :P
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
We don't have the source for Marshmallow. So, our phone can't get Marshmallow.

Hi, I have A2010I36 and I did the root and all works well, but when I installed any rom it appears that I don't have SIM. Also the baseband says unknown.

P.S: I don't have a backup :/
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Veerendra Kumar:
I think your Nvram data has been corrupted. Have you taken backup your previous ROM? If you did not took the backup, just go through this thread for "how to restore IMEI?" Sorry for not providing link. Because I am replying from app. So I can't provide link
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] reichsleiterz:
Thanks, but I didn't find that thread.

I watch this video youtube.com/watch?v=3zQMvoI9mTs that explain how to restore the NVRAM and even I can't restore my SIM

I think is because my model is A2010l36 and not A2010a, but I can't find any OTA of A2010l36.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
Replace your /firmware and /mddb folders from your Stock ROM to the ROM you want to use & it will work!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] reichsleiterz:
Thanks, but where I can find those folder of my Stock ROM? I didn't backup and I can't find a Stock ROM of A2010l36.

The A2010a don't work for me :/
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
I don't know from where you can get it! Better to take it to the service center and tell them to fix it.

Or

Wait for sometime because I requested someone to give his /firmware and /mddb files from his A2010I stock ROM. So, if he gives me that file I can help you but wait for sometime otherwise take it to service center.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] reichsleiterz:
Thanks, I'll wait for that. Meanwhile I will use another phone

[MENTION=6094605]vadolaz[/MENTION], I am using blisspop for 2/3 weeks and the problem I have faced is the rom is using a great amount of ram, average 78 to 85 percent. That's why some times it lags when 2/3 apps opened in background. Is there any solution for this problem?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vadolaz:
I don't have this problem. Could You describe in more detail the conditions of the problem?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Puspen Rath:
when I am using 2/3 apps together (i.e. using whatsapp, hike and browser (uc browser)). Sometimes when toggling between them my phone freezing sometimes. The systemUI stops and after sometimes restarts. And I have also turned on memory bar, I can see there is always above 800mb memory is in use and just 130/150mb left. But when I used cubot rom it consumed a very less amount of memory compared to blisspop. One thing I want to add I have installed only 12/13 3rd party app which is necessary for daily use (shareit, notes, Facebook lite, cm data manager etc.).

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
I see.. but as far as I know, some phones(like Lenovo A850) has the latest Marshmallow ROM although the official version is just Jellybean(if i remember it correctly). If the kernel is the reason, why Lenovo A850 is possible to update to Marshmellow?

However, this problem does not appear if I extract using OS X. Is this the reason why Lenovo 2010 can not be upgraded to Android Marshmallow?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
The ROMs will work on your phone but you will not be able to use cellular network. If you want to use the ROMs with cellular network then copy the /firmware and /mddb files from your stock ROM and replace them in custom ROMs or give me those files, I will make a flashable zip to make the process easier.

Hey there sorry this is a bit random but I am finding it hard to root my Lenovo B (A2016) it is basically the same phone but revised to 6.0 (MM). I am finding it hard to find how to unlock my bootloader to flash root or twrp without KingRoot! Is it already unlocked or is it not possible for my device yet. I am no n00b to rooting as I've rooted all my previous more popular android devices.

Any help would be useful from any Lenovo users especially rooted!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
The specifications of Vibe B and A2010-a are same except the Android Version. I think there should not be any problem in rooting your device. Just follow the instructions clearly. Use this guide: http://xdaforums.com/android/development/how-to-root-custom-roms-lenovo-a2010-t3414814

Fully charge your battery to 100% and then callibrate your battery. There are many apps for callibrating battery on play store, use the one you like.

I think we don't have a ROM which supports VOLTE but you can try to find out yourself. Start with CM (high chance of VOLTE support) & VOLTE must also be supported by your carrier.

Hey there thanks for the info, I thought so but isn't my bootloader locked how would I unlock it to flash twrp and would I use the A2010a scatter files? I also can't find the original stock firmware for my device...

Btw I enjoyed looking through your thread!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
I don't think so it is necessary to unlock boot loader before flashing TWRP because it will automatically be unlocked while flashing. Both are MT6735M devices so the scatter file will also be same. You can try to flash TWRP and remember to take a backup of stock ROM so that you can revert to stock ROM if anything goes wrong. If you don't want to take risk then you can also try KingRoot.

TWRP 3.0.0.0

https://yadi.sk/d/r2VsiTUApTyEy

Unpack and flash with SP Flash Tool.

Or simply flash the zip in the old version of TWRP.

Fix frp

The information about previous Google accounts is stored in the so called "frp" memory partition. If you erase that partition, it won't ask for the previous account after a factory reset in recovery.

The location of the frp partition can be found in the scatter file:

partition_name: frp

file_name: NONE

is_download: false

type: NORMAL_ROM

linear_start_addr: 0x6a00000

physical_start_addr: 0x6a00000

partition_size: 0x100000

First method.

You can just format that memory range (start_addr: 0x6a00000 size: 0x100000) with SP Flash Tool.

Second method: a zip file for flashing in TWRP.

https://yadi.sk/d/5AoYuv8Eonjqy

History:

When some people (who didn't know how to install the drivers for SP Flash Tool or just didn't have a PC) complained in the Russian forum that they couldn't complete the Setup Wizard after flashing a new ROM, simply because they also didn't have WiFi (not because they used a lost or stolen phone :) ), I made this short script for flashing in TWRP.

It does the same thing, erases that memory range used for frp.

Hey guys i check your site every week for some cool stuff and believe me you guys are the best , I just need a little or i don't it really little or not but when i installed cubot x15 it was running everthing was fine but suddenly i noticed that there is no signal and when i searched through the web i found that's because I've lost my IMEI i completely forgot to have a backup of it and now I am doomed , please guys if you can help me restore my IMEI somehow that'd be a great help i tried everything like going into engineer mode (*#*#4636633#*#*) but it also didn't worked please help if you can . :(

oh! forgot to mention my device is Lenovo A2010
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
:)

The Cubot X15 is the best rom available right now for our devices. The roms are ported from chinese mobiles so you will get restriction of apps on google play. Some Apps will show "Your device is not compaitable with this version" on Play store. I have found that the Google+ is not available for our device when we are using the custom rom.

The gestures and somatosensory in Dogee X5 pro and UmiOS roms don't work.

---------- Post added at 03:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

Is this the country specific rom? Will it work on Indian handsets?

---------- Post added at 03:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

There is a problem on Indian handsets. We can't install apps which are not available for China. Google+ is also not installing. On the Play Store it shows "Your device does not support this version". Probably it's because of the roms ported from chinese mobiles and play store thinks we are in china?

Any solutions for this?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] W60:
You could say it is country specific in the sense that it was is taken from a phone sold in Russia and it has a few apps specific for that country. But it does work in any country.

BTW, the name of the ROM contains the abbreviation ROW, which I think stands for "Rest Of the World", that is to say, not for China.

As for some apps not loading in some ROMs, I've seen that too. Not sure why, but it's not because they were made for China, otherwise they wouldn't have any Gapps at all.

You could also try this ROM which I ported myself: https://yadi.sk/d/8DGQbJrgowDC4

I remember there were a few apps that wouldn't install when I first ported that ROM, then I found the newer version of the original ROM, which said, among other things, that they had "improved app compatibility". After I ported the new version, I could install those apps.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
Yep I will try your ported rom but can you please fix the issue of installing apps on cubot x15,Dogee,and UmiOS. I don't want the stock one because its very slow, so how much time will it take to fix GPS issue in CM12.1?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] W60:
Like I said, the original ROM might have the same issue and it's difficult to solve it without access to the sources.

There may be a newer version of the original though, I'll try to check that, at least for the Cubot ROM, which seems one of the best.

Well, the "custom" ROMs mentioned above are also stock ROMs from other phones, only de-bloated, or they had less bloatware in the first place.

Right now I'm working on a de-bloated version of the latest stock ROM, with Xposed framework, busybox and, of course, root. Seems to work pretty well and, with another launcher, you wouldn't even tell it's the Lenovo stock ROM.

I'm not working on that, so I couldn't say. They had promised an update for CM a few days ago, but that didn't happen yet.

Not sure what the update was supposed to fix anyway. There are other issues too with CM, besides GPS.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
I will definitely try your debloated, xposed framework tweaked stock ROM but is it the new 'S257_160125' version?

The most awkward thing I found on Lenovo Phones are its launcher. Even Touchwiz is better than their launcher. Secondly, the bloatwares are kinda no use.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
I will try it today. Is this ported from the zoppo phone?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] W60:
Sure it's the 257 version, why would I use an older version?

From Zopo Color C ZP330, which has the same MT6735M processor.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
I have tested all the ROMs. As far as I tested them I found the Zoppo and the Cubot X15 to be the best ROMs among all others. The Zoppo ROM is actually great. I can now install the Google+ and other apps which are not available in China. It's because the Zoppo Phone is available in my country so I can install the apps which are banned in China. However there is a useless option in the settings of the Zoppo ROM called as the 'Smart Wake'.
