Hello to all guys , I just got this fantastic Lenovo phablet , but I do not like the translation and Vibe UI , I want to find a pure Android rom . I know that almost certainly there are devices that have the Lenovo compatible roms . Can anyone help me out ? :crying::crying::crying:
I have the same problem, I just changed to new version of VibeUI and had some problems with google apps HELP!
I'm pretty sure as this phone is, new rooting and roms are still being developed. Be patience.. or learn to make one yourself
To those who find this thread do be careful! I've already seen posts about people who have bricked this phone trying to root it.
Got the same phone. Liking the layout etc. Not the official VIBE UI rom.
It's set to English, but still finding Chinese icons/text everywhere.
Since I don't speak/read Chinese; issue...
Also sometimes laggy, due to lots of processes/apps running in the background, which can not be deleted or stopped.
Looking forward to when the community embraces this phone, and stock Android ROMS will be available on short term.
It's a (edit: potential!) flag-ship killer, in my eyes...
Hi,
I am trying to port cm12 to this device. It is the first time I am doing although I have previously created custom ROMs by editing system.img, so I am a noob.
I managed to get a stock rom: K50-T5_USR_ST1516_5.654.1_1504152228_MP6V3_CN.rar.
I have slightly modified build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh to be able to work with mediatek files which have a 512 bytes extra header.
I've triedt to create a recovery but I am not sure if it will work as I have some errors in the output
./build/tools/device/mkrecoveryzip.sh /home/vagrant/android/system/out/target/product/aio_otfp /home/vagrant/android/system/out/host/linux-x86/framework/signapk.jar

Should I copy anything from boot or recovery's ramdisk?
You can find attached the information I've been able to collect (info.txt and build.prop.txt) and build.log which was in a folder in the stock ROM.
Thanks

This ROM is pretty laggy and the ram is mostly full, and the worse part is that it can't play any video or jifs. For now I will recomand not to install this ROM until it will be modify correctly. Link from megahttps://mega.co.nz/#!3UcAkaaK!uEtthUPkeD1q7T4Nyn0MFtpLe9AtwQf-lOwqtz5RU-I

AOSP based 5.0 build for the K3 Note
Nanj at a Chinese forum had released an AOSP based 5.0 build for the K3 Note
http://bbs.ydss.cn/thread-551335-1-1.html (in Chinese but with captures)
The download link:
http://pan.baidu.com/s/1hqAdrrY
No gapps are included. The build functions ok. Camera, phone / data, and wifi seem to work. However please note that there is an undesirable apk, posed as a system component, at /system/app/SystemServer/SystemServer.apk. It sends frequent packets back to 622b6.romdu.com in China, similar to the issue in another post for a different rom -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55315205&postcount=54
The ROM also comes with a Chinese version of the Opera browser, Oupeng, which also sends analytics packets in the background.
With the two programs removed suspicious packets are no longer obvious from logcat.

New VIBE UI
There has been a new update released by Lenovo.
VIBEUI_V2.5_1524_5.955.1_ST_K50-T5
I have not updated as of yet, for the reason being I am very dissatisfied with the VIBEUI. I currently run 1522, despite the obvious and numerous complications of using the Asian based firmware. I have had to replace the dialer and sms, mms apps as well as install a font manager, even so I am still unable to get 4G working. I would much prefer a pure Android rom and for the past month have been considering beginning a project to build a new Lollipop rom supporting the 67xx MTK chipsets. It would be my first attempt at doing so since all my previous phones have been LG, HTC and NEXUS devices which have always proved easy enough to manipulate and customize.
If anyone out there has experience in building custom roms, especially for devices using the newer 64bit Mediatek chipset, please feel free to contact me. I would appreciate any help offered in this endeavor and I know there are many other MTK device owners out there that are just waiting for someone, or a group of someones', to pioneer a solution for those of us in the western hemisphere using these MTK devices. I am constantly on the look out for new information and projects pertaining to this, additionally I have a dedicated computer with all the SDKs needed to begin the project.
PM me if you are interested in helping kick start this project. Thanks.
What is the significance of this ROM string? I see that "ST" prob means (stable).
Know what "CC", "WCA2" and "WCA8" means in these I found below?
Do you know where is the (official) location to find the latest English language ROM?
My proximity sensor is not working and I'm wondering if moving to a diff ROM will fix that.
VIBEUI_V2.5_1520_7.128.1_CC_K50-T5_WCA2.zip (Android 5.0)
VIBEUI_V2.5_11520_5.827.1_ST_K50_T5 (Android 5.0) <------ the one my phone came with; multi-language
VIBEUI_V2.5_1524_5.955.1_ST_K50-T5_WCA8.zip (???)
VIBEUI_V2.8_1526_7.80.1_CC_K50-T5.zip (VIBE 2.8, Android 5.1)

Can it be even done if yes then I want try doing it and u guide me for that??
And BTW sorry for so many question marks
On my rooted "samsung galaxy S4 active" (GT-i9295) ... I have been happy with the cm-12.1-20160822-NIGHTLY-jactivelte.zip ... until I used it for telephoning now
The microphone level is really really low. The person on the other end can hardly understand me. And the soundrecorder also has very very low volume.
There are workarounds. I have googled a lot, and found instructions how to root-edit files in /system/ - which all did not help, because one file from the workaround wasn't even existing in my device.
There seems to be another way, using STweaks, but for the above mentioned cm-12.1-... it says "Sorry, no kernel support".
So I am looking for alternatives, please help. Some ideas:
a completely different ROM than the cm-12.1-20160822-NIGHTLY-jactivelte.zip - any chance for an Android 6.0.1 anytime soon?
a different kernel which is compatible with i9295 and my (seems to be newest?) CM12.1, with which I can use STweaks or something similar
another app which allows to change the mic boost level
an instructions manual for cm12.1 which tells me which system files to edit how
your way - what else could I do?
Thanks a lot!
Try CM13.1 https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/mobile/folders/0B7vmsLnZghSUZ0o0aEtLNUdYR1E
I'm desperate. I installed version 6.7 of the crDroidAndroid ROM on a Samsung Galaxy S9. Unfortunately, the charger from the Pixel 4 is installed in this ROM. Therefore there is no / system / bin / lpm file which I can edit so that the device starts automatically when it is supplied with power. The developers of this ROM don't know what to do here either. fastboot oem off-mode-charge 0 does not work with the Samsung either. Does anyone here know how to get it to run so that the device starts automatically when it is supplied with power?
I post my question because you can not help me with the Samsung devices, can not help in the crDroid post either. The developers of cdDroid cannot help and here is my last port of call.

Wrong forum, this is the rom section for the Pixel 4 XL, you want the questions and answers forum for the Galaxy S9.

It is about the part of the loading function which is implemented by the Pixel 4 in the ROM for the S9. The normal ROMs for the S9 have the corresponding lpm file, which is not available with the pixel loading function. So if a pixel user can tell me how it works with the pixel, then I can also set that with the S9.

I've already tried that. I have already tried to add the following content to this file:
#!/system/bin/sh
/system/bin/reboot
and granted the authorization that she had previously. Unfortunately, this ends with the device booting into download mode. Can you tell me how exactly I have to manipulate this file?
I'm completely the wrong person to ask, I just searched charging related files in root explorer and that's what had come up.

Hello there!
I have compiled a floating_feature.xml file that helps you get flagship level features, the additional features are listed below:
Flagship One UI launcher animations
High Performance Mode
Edge Lighting from flagship phones
Side Key Function
AOD Clock Animation when turning screen off
Dolby Atmos without Headsets
Screen Recorder
Google Discover
How to install:Download the file below and and open a root explorer and copy this file that you just downloaded from your downloads folder and navigate to /vendor/etc and paste the file, when it shows a conflict make it save the new file and then long press on the new floating_feature.xml file and look for the permissions tab and give it 644 permission (https://chmodcommand.com/chmod-644/).
Enjoy!
Support:If you need any help feel free to reply to this thread, or contact me via PM on this forum.
