Use headset
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] flaviopac:
I tried it with the standard HTC headset, it works very well....

But when I try to use it with my BLUETOOTH headset, it doesn't work....

I mean that if I call someone using the standard mode, it works correctly, but if I use SjPhone, the program uses the stereospeaker, not the bluetooth headset.......

Why??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] theformula:
btaudio.cab redirects audio from the system speaker(s) to a bt headset. may want to give that a shot.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
yes, BTAUDIO.cab or search for "bluetooth toggle". Those will make it so all PPC audio go to the BT hdset, even when on just the BT headset profile.

Or if you sign up with a company like VOIP Raider or VOIPStunt.com, they have a phone-to-phone option that let you use your PHONE signal (not data) to make calls. there's a small connection fee (like 5 euro cents), but otherwise, it has the same cost as a regular call. this has the advantage of not relying on data and the connections are MUCH MUCH better for the phone call.

Not sure if this will do what you want, but it does work well if it meets your usage scenario.

To the admins: feel free to delete this thread and I'm sorry for breaking the rules, but please wait until someone hopefully offers to give some guidance, as follows...

There are over 20 ROMs for this phone and thanks to all the developers! Their time and effort is much appreciated.

But how do we choose which ROM to try? Few, if any, of the developers indicate what their ROM is good for, or how it is different from the others.

Such a (pinned?) thread would be a big help... Without it, people are drowning in options, threads to read through to find out what bugs each ROM has etc.

And since I'm here, please pin a thread explaining how to unlock, root etc. this phone.

Hi friends,

amazingly what you are done. After the last update from lenovo (20170824 or earlier) the sound of this tablet is very bad because dolby is shut down.

With you ROM and the thread of matshias, the lenovo LTE version now is fantastic. Extremely fast, super sound.

What I have done:

with minimal adb (see matshias Thread xdaforums.com/thinkpad-tablet/general/beta-twrp-root-disable-encryption-yoga-t3538017) flased this custom ROM

after that flashed dolby atmos and open gapps (arm64, 7.1, nano)

- and voilà it's running very well - better than before!!! DRM Level is L1 so it should work with Amazon and Netflix (but can't test it)

Thank you again to all the involved guys

I had probably tested too many things and the modem was in a weird state - a reboot fixed that and USSD works for me too.

:victory:

started with booting into TWRP without installing, which went fine.

However, from that moment on, this was the only thing that worked with my new yt_x703l.

Booting into the system didn't work. Instead it was locked in a boot loop.

Instead of just rooting I now had to install a new rom, so that I could try some custom rom before trying to flash a stock rom.

At last I have not only a bootable device but also one that permits root access. with gapps.

Versions used:

Device: Lenovo Yoga Pad 3 LTE

TWRP: 3.2.1-0-yt_x703l

crDroid: 7.1.2-20171214-YTX703L-v3.8.4

Gapps: arm64 nano 7.1 20171225
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Tribble:
Upgrading from 3.8.3 to 3.8.4 does not require clearing anything before the flash. Just flash system (and ONLY system... :) ), and clear Dalvik and cache afterwards.

It should be a seamless "in-place" update - with all config data retained. :fingers-crossed:
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Tribble:
Tested with supersu and magisk root: No issues.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] damslefly:
the issue occurred before I attempted to flash TWRP.

the source said that TWRP could be started without installing it.

Apparently it still did something in addition to booting into TWRP.

Be that as it may, I'm very satisfied with the end result.

I don't care about the logo that could be displayed in the notification bar, but I do about the extended configuration options that exceed all Nougat versions I've seen preinstalled.

That is hard-coded - if you enable "double tap to wake" , then the edges of the screen are ignored. So the screen does not turn on on every time you grab the tablet.

First of all I would like to say thanks for this port to his creator. I didn't try it yet because I'm still praying god to see if lenovo releases an stable version of android 7.

Agreed, of course, and that's what I did. But there's at least something wrong when a package downloaded directly from Google results in a device failing to boot.

It's actually the fastboot and adb were not updated with the packages they put out. Late last night newer fastboot and adb were published that work with the flash-all.bat

It appears that they updated fastboot, but not adb, at least in the windows version. Just being picky here.

I hope this was not intentional, or a "feature". Some people might be inclined to change passwords frequently or with people using fingerprint I can see how this could be easy to do.

Security is great, but users should never have to worry about bricking their device. Also since the only solution is to RMA this seems like a waste of resources and could contribute to mute hazardous ewaste
