Hi, does anyone know about the Lenovo A278t if it can be rooted so we can rid off the android version 2.3.5 for the china market and instead put a version of Android that could work with Google. (For those who do not know, google in android devices in China does not come pre-installed due to the poor strategy google has in China).

Hi, I have this problem, I bought a Lenovo A278t Dual Sim Phone with Android 2.3.5 for China Market...I brouth my phone to Mexico and put the SIM of Telcel Carrier, the phone works great, but when trying to look for Google Play app, I wasn´t abble to find it anywhere on my phone, So I did I google serach to find out that Google for chinese devices has very limited acces, and sometimes the google apps dos not come pre installed on the device, so this is a pian in the "#$#%& so what I did is following some threads, I fianally could dounlowd and apk from and open market on the web, So I finally installed Google Play on my phone, so far so good...
The problem is when trying to open the app it prompts me to set up the google account on the device...so I go to Accounts & Sync just to find out there is only the option for an Exchange account, not Goggle account, either way I input as follows...
Email: [email protected]
Password: mypassword*****
Then the following screen ask for:
Domain\Username: \[email protected]
Password: mypassword****
Server: m.google.com
Use secure connection (SSL): I tried checked and unchecked
the result: Nothin....just a message that says:
Setup could not finish...unable to open connection to server...
or
Setup could not finish...This server requires security features your phone does not support
I tried doing the set up without the SIM on the phone, but same situation, no set up is completed.
Note: This device is on the list of authorized devices by google, so the android license is recognized by Google. The Chinese carrier is China Mobile, but since my pohone is now in Mexico the Mexicna Carrier is now TELCEL, Hope Google tries to do something to fix this issues on an OS so popular as android. Is a hame I have to waste so much time in order to buy some great apps.
Hope someone can get a solution.
Thanks!

I just updated my android to Android 2.1 -update 1.
I tried to sign in to my google account, but then this error message appears:
"Can not establish a reliable data connection to the server.
This could be a temporary problem or your sim card may not be provisioned
for data services. If it continues call customer care."
I tried few times already but the result is just the same. Is this a bug or what?
Can somebody please tell me how to handle this?Please..I cannot access android market.

are you in China? if so, you have to make some hard coding for ip direction in hosts.
127.0.0.1 localhost
72.14.254.100 clients2.google.com
72.14.254.100 android.l.google.com
72.14.254.100 android.clients.google.com
because when last time Google left China, they(or the Chinese Government) modified the DNS.
I had this same problem. It related to the hosts file as stated above. See this link for the fix...you will find more details on how to fix it

Lol. Sometimes these threads get lost if you don't bump them bro. The only thing I can think of for you do to would be to get into recovery and and choose wipe data/factory reset and see if starting over with a fresh start helps. That way you can setup your gmail account through the setup wizard in the very beginning. Hopefully this helps you out.
wow i got a reply,thx so much!
did asinstructed device went on in the state i bought with no initial setup,so doesnt ask me anything and goes straight lockscreen.
went to account and sync , add account no google account i can add, so no market access...wtfh..
so i should go with a custom rom?
if ya which ones most stable fast?
final word: pretty sad to flash rom just to get market access, samsung tablet in asia total fail? no wonder y ipad so popular...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Did you reset user data or do a full recovery from the recovery menu? If you do a full recovery from the menu the unit will start up just like the first time you powered it on. Use the same google account for both devices and any apps that are capable will be synched to both devices.
You might try installing the current release version for 3.1 which is version 1.0.28 I believe. You can get it by going to the android market web site (access this from your tabs browser and not from a pc the pc won't find the app) and searching for android market.
I know some users have reported that the 3.1.5 is working on some tabs I may be wrong but I was under the impression that initially at least this was a phone release and not a tab release.
If you're really struggling you could flash one of the stock roms over at http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p7510.htm but make sure you use the right country/Language version.
Brian
should be using android market v1.0.28 for tablets. Version 3.1 is for phones I belive..
thx for reply, obviously tablet bought in CHINA comes with CHINA Firmware with no Google account so no android market possible!!!!!
Flashed ASIA firmware onto it from samfirmware.com and now i got android market
working.........
On China Firmware if u start Android Market it keeps asking u to add a Google Account and then quits application. No where to add Google account. China Firmware
FTL!!!!!!!!!!

Could this have anything to do with it?
If so, I would recommend you install a different country's ROM. Even so, since your government is blocking the Market, you may not be able to get it working

Hi. did u fix the problem? I had the same problem and I really need the solution. Thanks
I need an account to download the theme ZTE. You can help me create an account or how can download themes from the store of ZTE?
What theme store ? Never heard of it.
having the same issue... published a post about it but no reply
http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/themes/zte-market-axon7-chinese-version-a2017-t3527820
A screenshot of part of it
I've actually looked for a place to register on a PC (using google chrome translate function) but came up with nothing...
can't find the actual site to register to, so either it's not possible to open an account directly on ZTE site and than use the User name & password on the phone
or you just have to register on the phone using your phone number, but as said that comes up as invalid number each time you try to register...
i didn t have this apply on my Axon 7 G , do you have link for it ?
asfiak, this is for the chinese version of the ROM only. I used to run it and now run b29 for the US phone. If you guys really want more themes you can just install the chinese rom.
Problem is that you have to register to download anything just like the google play store. BUT, it's not the problem of signing up, after messing around with it I have made an account but I need to verify it. In doing so I needed to give a code which should have been texted to me. The problem being that I'm not in china and I don't think ZTE is going to send an international text. Tried placing the country code in front of the number but no hope.
I bought the Y90 from Aliexpress and was assured the device will come with google play services and google play.
I understand the phone is a china ROM and I checked the bands for Australia and it seemed that it would work.
After receiving the phone, I tried to add my google account to the phone to begin to import my saved data and download apps.
However, all I get is "Couldn't Sign in there was a problem communicating with google servers try again later".
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this (it is my first post) but this was the best place i could find with regard to lenovo china ROM related queries.
Also, is it possible to install a different ROM on this phone? (I've seen that a global ROM is generally required to install custom ROMS. I'm also a noob with this stuff so be nice)
Thank you!
Hi,
I also have the y90 after I recieved from china, I updated it and google play service stopped working.
I can try to send you the my gdrive link below:
google-play-services-22-18-20-040300-451484765.apk
drive.google.com
You can download from there and try installing the framework(google services apk) and install google playstore direct from the app gallery provided with legion y90 china.
you can also find the google services apk on uptodown.com website, I downloaded it from there.
First you need to remove the google play store and google play services from the app management in settings (clear storage and clear cache before uninstalling the google playstore and google services).
Then download the google services apk from my link and install the services then install the google playstore.
Enjoy your Legion y90.

Hello, all u need do is go to Settings > App management. In App management, u will see three dots above. Click on the three dots at the top right corner and go to Google basic Services. Off and On the toggle button. This time, u should be able to open google applications and login to them without any problems
Are you facing issue with lenovo legion y90 for notifications.
Whatsapp notifications and google notifications not popping up.
I somehow fixed it by reinstalling the google play services and it just worked.
Will definitely look at the app management section it seems it will come in handy.
Yes, I also have a problem will notifications for most applications just not coming through unless I physically enter the apps then the notifications will come through altogether. That's why im interested in a custom ROM hopefully someone can help with it in the near future..
Hello. You guys don't have contact contact issues? It gradually erases my contacts. I import them from a file to the phone memory and it does the same thing to me. I passed them to a microsoft account and still they keep disappearing.

But Lenovo don't make a global ROM!???
No the lenovo y90 till date does not have global ROM. Looks like it is exclusive to china, now I having problem on my y90 due to stuck in fastboot and locked bootloader.

have the same problem did u solve it ?
Anyone wants to try to root?
Quick question to Y90 users, since I can't find the info anywhere else, what's the thickness of the Y90 at the edge and at the bump?
I've found in specs that the thickness of the phone is 10.1 mm but it doesn't specify if at the bump or not.
im receiving it cant sing in on google services, does anyone knows what to do ?
I found the issue go to settings > manage apps > ... > google services > activate it.
Then try again
