It goes to sleep just like when you are in system. Press power button to wake it. If it's bothering you can disable sleeping as well in recovery settings.

OK, for now you can disable the screen timeout completely. The bug isn't on my part and out of my scope, seems to be some incompatibility with mediatek framebuffer and this recovery. Google is open sourcing all the stuff slowly so things might take time to stabilize and be compatible with this new platform.
Flashed it and using it.. Till now no bug. Thanks for this recovery
This is a great. Phil's recovery available for us. Great work Varun.
@all: Can you clarify my queries. I have been using samsung and new to bootloader stuff.
1. When you unlock bootloader, does it notify of updated pushed by Google?
2. Does unlocked bootloader shows a tampering icon, samsung devices does?
Thanks
recovery sleep problem
for recovery sleep mode i must say there is some problem as is doesnt wake up easily..

1. There isn't any change to the ability to receive updates.
2. No tampering icon. The bootloader splash screen will show the text "=> OEM unlocked" in white at the lower left of the display.
Appreciable Work!
As compared to CWM, it is working smoothly without any bugs and hats off,

Hi, I did not find any issue with it.. I can wake it up by simply pressing power button once.. Did it more than 5 times..
BUG - this recovery doesn't format SD ext even if it is present and thus skips the formatting of sd-ext

Yes,this recovery works on all three android one devices.Infact all threads in this section are compatible with the three devices
hi.
i managed to backup my entire rom.
without rooting or unlocking the boot loader.
and the only bug i found with this recovery is that once the device enters into sleep mode there is no way to wake it up i had to disible screen timeout but rest all works properly.
now my last question for now.
in my backup folder there are files like.
.android_secure.vfat.tar, .android_secure.vfat.tar.a, boot.img, cache.ext4.tar, cache.ext4.tar.a, data.ext4.tar, data.ext4.tar.a, data.ext4.tar.b, nandroid.md5, recovery.img, recovery.log, system.ext4.tar and system.ext4.tar.a
1. has it backuped all the partitions?
2. why do some files have .a and .b extensions is this normal?
3. what is the process of restoring the backup?
4. thanks a lot for making this recovery

I must have done something wrong because my touchscreen is not working. I'll try again tomorrow and post the results.
Thanks for the hard work. I've been holding off on trying Tizen as I wanted a way to come back to Android if not happy.
Been patiently waiting for a downgrader as the last one didn't work. Glad to see someone got it working.
Hopefully touch works with this one.

I did exact as it says and touch didn't work.
After flashing a 2nd time and NOT going to recovery menu and letting it reboot both times i did get touch working.
THANKS
So yes this IS a working downgrader.
It works. I flashed 3 times, until touch worked. Thank you!

I reflashed but every time I tried to get to recovery it would go in to an infinite reboot sequence. Finally flashed TWRP and it booted in to recovery, now it works. So the key is to flash again if touch doesn't work the first time.
For flash the .tar file I must be in download mode, right?
Thanks for your big job
I'm sorry for my bad english, I'm Italian
I wonder how hard it would be of at all possible to alter the original android gc1 rom to support the gc2 hardware and using the downgrade to clone such a proccess to install android instead of tizen... in term of hardware they are more then close.. and both run on linux kernel at base level, but my knowledge of the intricate details of such a task are limited so I am not even sure how possible my technically lacking thought are in practice... or if it is, a near impossibility/very hard/or close to easy..?!

hi ,
i wanted to see for myself if i could flashback .( Tizen to Android).??
Followed OP post, Jijonhyuni (exactly as set out in his instructions .in post #1)
No problem .!
touch working etc ..
Thank you Jijonhyuni ( for alternatives o/s choices !)
Post note
... about Tizen experience..?
Samsung wants you to upgrade/bully you to Tizen ?
but overall no alternative apps ( very, very limited ) ,o/s is smooth ,battery ..ok.
So to me untill they start providing worthwile apps etc ,
i will in the meantime enjoy the Android experience and sideload all my favourite apps !!
Only when i start reading in these forums positves (!! )
i will flash back to Tizen
Good luck to all.
further post note..
Landed back on MK7( ?).. and flashed back to latest Android... NC1
Good to hear my "Caynax hourly time "
(voice time app )announcing time for me without me looking at watch..
Played around and set Watchstyler watchface. etc
One diffs i notice again..is that the Android quality of watchfaces overall ,
seems to be so much clear /better than Tizens ?
While I don't currently have any intention of using this (I'm loving tizen), it's is great to know this exists as a safety net for those holding off on trying the other OS...
Thanks for your hard work and congratulations on cracking this nut!
Thanks, I will try

Many thanks for all your hard work, got my gear the way I like it, and with the ability to use watch styler my favourite app, with all the great themes posted on xda.
When tizen is a little more established I might swap again.

Feel free to stay on Android forever. When Samsung moved to Tizen for the Gear 2's they could have left the GG1 on Android with no future updates. And if abandoned, existing third party apps would eventually die from neglect and no new one's would ever be written. There's hope for the latter with the move to Tizen. I thought for sure GG1 owners would be screwed when it was confirmed the Gear 2's were Tizen. In all my time following Samsung this is the first where they actually gave a crap about owners of earlier devices when they (Samsung) shifted strategy. They deserve applause for what they did with the GG1, not *****ing. If people are pissed about the strategic decision to move to Tizen that's very different from Samsung ensuring that their wearables early adopters (us) weren't thrown under the bus.
Finally I can get back to android now, thanksss.
I have one problem, my windows explorer not show my gear drive, anyone have same issue?

Stuck! 4real!
Okay so i installed the ROM , but i always got the error processor.media stopped working , i could not enter Play Store or Music or Photos , or even download anything even if i connect the USB with my computer it showed a grayed :E Disk and when i double click on it it shows "Please enter your Disk." So i attempted to root my phone with iRoot and with MTK Droid Tools so i could use the Mobile Uncle Tools .apk cause for some reason it would not go to CWM when i press power+up volume and when it was installing iRoot or something it rebooted it self looks like it wiped the OS along with it and it got stuck on boot screen , from this point i attempted to flash kitkat ROM 4.jan.2015. but FlashTools does not detect my phone. So i cant do anything at all. If somebody has a idea on how can i fix this?
PS : Also CWM cant mount anything.

Yes, the post has been edited... firstly we are in a great need of Custom recovery and we will be grateful if someone does that for us.
if the recovery ( CWM/ TWRP) is made the rooting issue will be solved. Then we will move on to the Custom Rom section. But, for now we need a working custom recovery.

These are of no help as they confuse Lenovo Note K3 with our Phone...... infact, our phone is different from K3 note in many aspects.
None of these methods floating around are actually working, including all the PC rooting softwares.
Matter of fact, people giving these tutorials don't even own a real Lenovo A7000a IRL. We are the users and we are well acquainted with the Dilemma.
A custom Recovery ported by a altruistic developer can only put us out of our miseries.
+1 ji..
This phone is pretty good. I think, it Comes with unlockable bootloader / unsafe boot image. Even the source + stock firmware is already available.
If experienced developers helps us by giving any custom recovery, we will be very thankful and grateful to them as this great phone is lacking in this area only.

Here it is but. if you know chinese.
Well its final i think.
can someone test if the SDCard works.
the mounts work.
remember. you need to delete "recovery-from-boot.p" in /system
this can over write the recovery.

http://cellphonemic.com/lenovo-k3-note-recovery.html
i tried the original recovery image. Didn't work. so i ported. I replaced the core files and retained the ram disk and did a few edits.
Thanks to the guys who made that recovery. It seems that was originally for a K50

Kishore Dutta for the stock recovery.
The guy whoever made that original recovery
My patience, annoyance and my anger that made me do it.
Feel free to give me a thumbs up, lots of money, anything. Thank is welcome too.

Says you have to learn how to touch to use this recovery? Well I flashed and can't figure out how to make it work. I use the same recovery on my 6p and it works great. What is the trick to make 3.0 work on the tab? Really appreciate your work in this tab as I haven't even picked it up in over a year until I saw the good work you've accomplished.
I flashed the second one and it worked

Touch is not working correctly.if u touch wipe the reboot option is pressed and so on. I have mastered where to touch.
But twrp 3.0 is not really important at the moment. I just posted it so that tab 3 217s will have everything updated.now cm13 roms are getting ready to upload.

@Dark Frenzy and lilferraro . Thank you guys for the awesome collection of ROMs, kernels built from source to choose from , and for leaving nothing out. And even going as far as the updated 3.0 twrp recovery with f2fs support. And thanks to you gentlemen I'm no longer on kit kat 4.4.2 and now I'm rockin cm 13 -6.0 marshmallow. Flashed the test kernel zip which by the way is working really well. One thing I did notice was how good the WiFi signal is compared to what it was on 4.4.2 and I'm very happy about that because that was a huge issue that this tab had while on stock firmware. Baseband is not listed in settings . battery drain is not bad (using kernel auditor apk ) although in the thread Performance Control is recommended but I always keep an extra charger with me . This thing is running smooth . just flashed alpha 4.0 xposed framework ver.80 zip. And now running xposed. Just wanted to hit the thank you button a couple of times in the threads and to say thank you for all of this .. You guys make one bad @$$ team.
A request for the SM-T211.....would be beneficial

Using TWRP 3 with F2FS and any time I try to flash an Aroma-based installer for Open GApps, TWRP totally locks up and I cannot start the install.

Is that only with f2fs twrp? I think that's same with all other twrp for SM-T217S/T.
You need to touch at the corner to press next button and so on, u need to figure out where it touches but that's difficult but I have mastered it lol

Yes, I haven't tried the non-F2FS one, yet.
Is TWRP 3.0 required to flash the MM roms? Or will another one work? I am wondering if the trouble I am having installing ROMs right now may be coming from using the new recovery.
Twrp updated and its now stable
Changes or whats new:
MTP
USB Storage
Aroma Installer Touch
F2FS

Use Flashify from playstore ..
You can root using KingUser apk .. if not successful use odin to flash TWRP from twrp.me but in tar file .. You can flash custom roms from there ..

This thread has been dead for a while but wanna say this rom still works great. Just the new security patches have messed up the vibrate. Any chance I can fix this without updating to nougat as I like Marshmallow. ALOT

Well u cant Downgrade bootloader after January DRAG update.
No choice since u have already updated to latest. Try A Note 7 Port based on Marshmellow. Renovate or Hydra ROM. Vibration works in those. All S7E roms based on Marshmellow will not have vibration from now on for you!
