Hello everyone!
There's an official port of MIUIv5 for our P780 which can be found here.
It needs the Chinese base and not the International one, which means you need to have a Chinese stock ROM before flashing MIUI (flashing over the international stock rom ended in a bootloop for me).
I installed it a week ago and so far it's working flawlessly with a minor issue with the CSipSimple application (opening the Settings dialog causes FC). Didn't find any other bugs, running smooth on the P780 4GB version.

What I've done to run MIUI on the Lenovo P780 (4GB):
I. Backup
Since my phone came pre-rooted I didn't have to do it on my own. There's a good guide for rooting here. VibeROM can't be rooted via framaroot, so you'll have to find another way if you're running it and don't have root.
Download Mobileuncle Tools and backup your IMEI. I suggest keeping it somewhere safe in case of trouble.
Download MtK Droid Tools and backup your whole current ROM (takes a while) so you can flash it back with SmartPhone Flashtool later on if you decide.
II. Flash Chinese stock ROM
Download the Chinese S135 base stock rom along with the drivers and the flash tool from here and flash the S135 following the instructions provided.
Let the phone boot at least once. Copy the MIUI zip on the phone.
III. Flash MIUI
Reboot into recovery (shutdown the phone, then hold Power + Volume UP + Volume DOWN until you see the TEAMWIN logo). Perform a factory reset (Wipe Data + Cache) and Wipe Dalvik Cache.
Select Install and choose the MIUI zip archive, wait for it to flash.
Reboot phone and enjoy MIUI

Flashed everything works fine, but Second Sim is detected but not working, tried many permutations still the same.
Any info will b very useful, originally forms ROW firmware, help.. Urgent, need dual sim functionality very much
Sent from my iPad
Hi there drkrack,
Have you tried removing SIM1 and only leaving SIM2 in the phone? Is that working?
Since English is not my native language I can't understand what do you mean with "originally forms ROW firmware", can you explain?
The phone was with the ROW firmware when you flashed MIUI?
As far as I know MIUI is based on the chinese firmware so you'll have to flash that and if second sim is not working for you, you might have to flash only the modem from the ROW rom.
You can try replacing your modem driver with another one without reflashing the whole phone.
Check your current modem: Settings->All Settings->About phone-> Baseband version.
Mine's P780.V16, 2013/07/03 17:08 and both SIMs are working fine. You can try with some other versions though.
Backup your IMEIs with Mobileuncle Tools. This is very important because this information could be lost after replacing the modem driver!
Install ES File Explorer or Total Commander and give it root access.
Go to the /system/etc/firmware folder, you'll find a file named modem.img which is the current modem firmware.
Copy it over to the SD card just in case and replace it with another modem.
Download a new modem driver from [1] (sorry, can't post external links yet). I'm running V19 and both SIM cards are working just fine, but your mileage may vary.
After you move the file there be sure that the permissions are 644 (rw- r-- r--) (Owner: read+write, Group: read, Others: read).
Reboot the phone and hopefully you'll have both SIMs working.
Hope this helps,
good luck!

Thanks for the reply it was a typo.. I meant originally from ROW firmware, flashed Chinese rom s123 and then tried MIUI v5,
All SIM Combinations I've tried, not detecting sim 2 at all.
Same problem with SLX ROM too,
Have a backup of IMEIs
Will try this modem driver img replacing and will let you know
Official MIUI V5 for 8gb P780
How to flash Official MIUI V5 on 8gb P780 ROW. I mean can we flash S135 and then Use TWRP to flash Official MIUI from en.miui.com ?
Thanks.
I using 8gb version. Try put life rom 07. Then flash miui v5 from here lenovo-forums.ru/topic/2073-miui-v5-jb-42-%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F-ideaphone-p780-dual-sim-version/
Sent from my P780 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Is there gonna be new Miui above 4.4.25?
I've no idea, but hoping for it. There's already Android 4.4 for our P780 (which runs very smooth btw), but so far nothing from the MIUI team. Will keep you updated if I find something...
i goofed it up
Help me please anyone. I have never tried to fix a ROM to this kind of device before. I've always used HTC till now and I've goofed the install so bad that I can't reflash my back up. The recovery can't read the data or emmc partitions or internal storage. I don't know how to fix it. I can boot recovery but I can't flash anything or go back to my old ROM I was using 8 gb ROW 124 stock rooted TWRP. I can still get the system partition to mount. Any ideas how to fix it?
Yeah, read the other topics in this forum, good people have written fine guides for using MTK Smartphone flash tool to restore their phones. A rule of thumb is always keep your backups somewhere safe, e.g. PC hard disk or external storage card because when flashing the internal memory is at risk of breaking. Post to the relevant topic and good luck.

Dear stympy, I had finally flashed my p780 row using life rom and finally flashing MIUI using TWRP. Everything works fine except that the internal storage is now only 1 GB, it is so tight to squeeze anything in. Any workaround? Thanks beforehand.

Hi. What MIUI did you flashed? What version? Do you have any sdcard?
Usually MIUI makes your sdcard internal memory.

I dont exactly remember which version it was, all I know it was MIUI 5, for redmi note if I had remembered correctly.
I have inserted a 16gb sd card. It is true that it was detected as phone memory. When I installed much apps to test if it has any effect when the internal storage runs out, the gallery and the camera started to acting up, at that time, the internal storage only have 99 mb.
Plus the mic is no longer working, when I make calls, the receiver hears only buzz. When I make a record, nothing recorded.
I love the UI already, but these problems bother me for days already. I hate to reflash stock rom back.

Hi. Flash final stock firmware from Lenovo, S228 ROW. Install TWRP. After all that install latest MIUI, MIUI MINOVO.
I think is one of the best firmware here, made for our phones.
Unfortunately free system and data space it is a problem for this phone, because of the limited hardware.
You have those problems because you installed one KitKat firmware over Jellybean base firmware. This two are not compatible.
Good luck.

hi stympy, after the last attempt to revive my phone, finally I was able to boot up after using the 20 seconds trick, flashed the ROM that you suggested me to, finished flashing. The phone was booting up allright. suddenly after the lockscreen appears, it was died again. I have tried the 20 seconds trick repeatedly to revive the phone again, but all to no avail, I guess this is a hardware failure then?
what part(s) that would be damaged? any ideas?
i will take this p780 to a service center, I'd hate to be tricked by the service center. thanks before Sir Stympy

Hi. If you pressed 20 secconds on the red button, means that you hard resetted your phone. That means that could be a preloader problem. Try to reflash your stock firmware, so all could be new.
To answers to your question, usually the motherboard is the problem.
But first try to reflash your stock firmware and after flash see if you have to go to service store.
Good luck.

I've recently bought Orient H920 phone and accidentally ruined my recovery partition. Does anybody have stock ROM dump or suitable recovery image?
This phone is also known as Butterfly H920 or Tianhe H920. Another unpopular name for it is MX58TAir. Probably this phone is also Star X920, but I doubght. I found to suitable/flashable ROMs, one is MX58TAir.TD.HD720P.130628.CN, everything works but no support for dual sim. Another is H920.130422.EN, probably stock ROM, however display driver doesn't work. Changing UBOOT file doesn't help.
Mlais MX58 Air / Tianhe H920 / Butterfly H920
After continious research I'm convinced that Mlais MX58 Air and Tianhe H920 are same phones. I could finally flash Mlais MX58 Air ROM from (needrom com/mobile/mlais-mx58--3)here. Everything works smoothly and perfectly with only one problem. Seems like radio is not working. WiFi is present, but phone doesn't even see inserted SIMs. ROM looks like original that I have ruined . (4pda ru/forum/dl/post/3037297/mt6589_rooter.zip) This is working rooter for this ROM. Maybe somebody could help fixing radio issue.
I found that problem was not with radio but with NVRAM error. Seems like i've wiped NVRAM partition and lost my IMEIs. Also newer ROMs do not include NVRAM partition, which could be flashed and then fixed to desired IMEI.
Problem Solved.
Tianhe H920 and Mlais MX58 Air are definetely same phones. Flash one of the Mlais MX58 ROMs form needrom.com. Either YN/ZN should work for you. If flasher returns 8038 error check the logs, find NOT MATCH values, and change to proper ones in scatter file. If you completely bricked your phone first of all flash H920 ROM with preloader and then Mlais MX58 Air without preloader.
Confirmed, same, I installed the H920+ ROM yesterday, but you can forget this ROM, it is repartitioning your storage for programs to 1 GB. Go with the Mlais ROMs, they habe 2 GB partitions for programs.
By the way, I have issues with the add-on directories, can't install them, no matter what I try. I had to disable everything with predictive input, spell checking to get rid of every word is underlined with red issue because none of the words is recognized as words at all.

As I mentioned earlier either ZX/YN version should work for you. These versions have different display drivers. You can get ROMs from needrom. Be careful with the proper version of your phone, if you flash wrong ROM, you may completely brick your phone. I suggest comparing models via detailed tech. specs. Try it, let us know, gl hf.

Hi devel-su
Finally i have repaired the mobile with H920.130422.EN. After I flash the rom. I enter in hard reset mode, in choose the 2 chineses text, "Test Manual" then choose the first one. As the display show me some graphics I touch the screen , curiously i have could see the line described by my finger. I finish all display test. Reboot the mobile and surprise, the mobile works fine.
Sorry for my english.

hi i own a g+ mx4 with these specs http://specdevice.com/showspec.php?id=0edc-a3a4-4c71-8c0e1c20d6e6
the problem is that after a factory reset the phone does not recognise the sim cards.
when i check the imei trought settings it says uknown.
i have tried many ways to write the imei (following suggestions of many xda users) but non of them worked for me.
i think the problem is that the radio and the nvram are missing
so i m searching for the stock rom to flash it again (i don't have a backup) of it
if there is anyone that owns this phone please take a backup of your rom and send it to me
I have original firmware for G+ MX4
Download from mab.to/lCz9mLwSU and use SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1408.00 (or what do you have but this works for me). If after reflash there is problem run administrator menu and clean all cash files.
Enjoy
Hi.i have already solved the problem.thank you!
How did you do this? I mean did you found original or compatible ROM, because it's awful fake and I want to flash with right ROM.
I wiil inform you as soon as i get home because i dont remember the process.i think i have a backup of the rom stored at my pc
hi.i m uploading the rom for you.it does not work perfectly but at list it helped me make the phone usable again.
what i found after a lot of research was that my phone had some files damaged during a factory reset, so it could not read sim cards and lost its imei.
what worked for me was to take a backup of the damaged rom that the phone was running and then i replaced a file (i think it was the secro.img but i m not sure) with the equivalent file of one official rom from a lenovo phone that had the same chipset.
There is no need to do this- I have backup of original ROM but I want other for real technical parameters.
Can you upload the rom for me?because mine has some issues
I did it already. Because I'm new I can't post links so I wrote mab.to/lCz9mLwSU Not full address but I'v tested- it works.
So, I can't understand do you have other ROM which is for rihgt hardware?
Nope.. I just have a damaged version of the stock rom.thank you for your rom
Surely it's JIAKE
I'v tested with ROMs for JIAKE V5 and V10 and with them there are some problems with display. With V5 display looks OK, hardware keys work but touchscreen not. With V10 everything work but screen resolution isn't suited.
A "script kiddie" here, tried to customize my phone for the first time, accidentally installed a wrong version ROM, the phone went into a bootloop and so i decided to completely wipe the internal storage (that was so very dumb...)
Now after a day of struggle i managed to install everything i wanted - TWRP and a custom MIUI, but ever since that memory wipe i lost my signal. After searching around some, it seems that my IMEIs got lost (disconnected, corrupted, i dont know how to call it) and the phone can not detect either of my SIM cards. WiFi works fine. I do not have "nvram" folder or file anywhere on my phone.

At the end of that tutorial look for a small word tutorial zipped. Read that one first.
Turns out all i had to do was mess around with firmware re-flashing until i got a working baseband and then use Chamelephon to set up IMEIs.
Everything was that easy.

Try this: reset the phone to factory defaults. Then try to see if IMEI'S are still there.
Tell me what firmware worked. It is a valuable information for others.

I wiped all the factory settings and the ROMs i used to mess around were: P780_S124_ROW_140403, flashed through flashtool, supposed to be the "official" ROM (the one i got the stable baseband from) and MIUISU_4.4.2v_P780_7.2.24_ROW (the one im using currently). All the IMEIs got restored through Chamalephon as soon as i got a working baseband and i can send/accept calls and SMS with no problem. However there is a bug with constantly changing MAC now.

Hi. Did you installed MIUISU over s124 ?
If you did, you must update to s228 Kitkat.
S124 is jellybean. You will get errors, if you install kitkat over jellybean.

No, i installed s124 backed up the baseband and nvram files through MTK. Then i flashed the system, installed MIUI and recovered my baseband. The unstable MAC error started in s124 already.

Ok. I understand.
Yea so I installed Microsoft Launcher and it nailed the long press on the home button so recent tasks no longer came up during the launcher use. Worse, uninstalling it went fine except the feature still doesn't work.. so then I wipe back to factory and still it doesn't work and out of sheer paranoia, I wiped it again and you guessed it, nothing happens.
If I bring up the on screen buttons from the bottom, it works fine.
I have contacted the launcher team at arrow (MS) via feedback and they were only interested in fixing their software but looking at their known issues they are snowed under with failures of varying natures. So I contacted Maze themselves asking for some help or the official original rom because its not on the download page anymore, if it ever was.
I see a thread here but not being aGenius like some of you guys, wasn't sure.... I do want the official release from the official maze link. I saw a google drive thing but wasn't sure how to verify it is theirs.
Also gonna need to know how to install the thing, a basic guide will do, flash tool etc. Have done similar before on other phones but I am not confidently good at this really. thanks.

I need Stock Rom for MAZE Alpha X 6/128
Hello dear community, I own the phone AlphaX 6 128Gb recently tried to solve the bluetooth problem and tried to install the root and TWRP, after installing custom recovery, the phone stopped loading into the Android system. Only TWRP is loaded. I mistakenly flashed Maze_Alpha_B_V04_20171018 jn my phone, now I have a brick. Search for the original firmware results did not bring. There are ideas how to restore the phone. The fastboot mode is missing, I can only use SP_Flash_Tool. There are several backups of the original firmware made in TWRP, but the phone does not turn on at all.
Is this fixed for you?

Hi guys, I have a mobile data issue since i flashed my phone two days ago.
I cannot connect my phone to the internet unless I use wifi. Texts and calls are working.
Issue is occurring on both Lineage OS 18 (unofficial) and CrDroid 11.
I already flashed and reflashed the roms, wipe data, system, everything multiple times, flashed the original modem/NON-HLOS.bin file via fastboot with no luck. Tried on multiple recovery too just in case (twrp, pitchblackRP, OrangeFox). I mostly use sideloading but install from an sd card got me the same results.
Issue happens with rooted (magisk last version) roms and unrooted roms aswell.
I had several issues about twrp/recovery being unable to mount /data, which I tricked to do so by resizing data from ext4 to ext2 then to ext4 again. Not sure that's the good way to do it.
I tried to go back to a clean room with relocking the bootloader and flashing the official fastboot rom but I got stuck on a bootloop. I tried other methods with MiFlash and succeeded into booting the official rom but i'm stuck on the Welcome/new device screen (the little slideshow crash/won't advance to the next step when i have to choose between recover data from an old phone or start from scratch). I went back to crdroid for now.
My first thought was to tinker with the APN but it didn't worked, sometimes i get a message like "APN Settings are not available for the current user" but I usually manage to still write them, with no effect still. I'm on the a french operator called "Free"
Typing ##4636## in my phone app gets me to a debug menu where I can see that I'm not connected to the data services (but i'm connected to the vocal services). I have a way to check the IMS state in this menu, which tells me that i'm not registered, don't know what that means.
Already did the trick of cleaning sim card, going in plane mode, changing favorite network and so on. I'm a little desperate
If you cannot help me with this, can someone points me a good tutorial on how to going nuclear on a phone and delete everything to reflash an official Mi rom ? I'm quite used to flashing roms but I still get a bit lost between a factory reset, a data wipe, and what to flash/wipe/mount in order etc.
Vendor or firmware flashing you test?
I think maybe vendor help

Sorry i didn't mention it. My last flash attempt was flash Xiaomi FW > flash crdroid > flash gapps >flash magisk and that's my current set up, and it still doesn't works. The issue might lie in the SIM card, i previously tried the sim card of a relative on my phone and it didn't do much but this morning the same sim worked and mine still does not. I'll report back once I have a new one.
Edit: could you explain what vendor is ? What's the difference with the fw or a rom ?

The issue might lie in the SIM card, i previously tried the sim card of a relative on my phone and it didn't do much but this morning the same sim worked and mine still does not. I'll report back once I have a new one.
Edit: could you explain what vendor is ? What's the difference with the fw or a rom ?

I'm going to lose it lmao, the reason why I didn't had any access to my mobile data is because... My monthly bill payment didn't went through because of a credit card renewal.... I apparently decided to flash my rom the day of the due date and didn't saw any warning hence the confusion. Probleme solved, I paid my bill and the data is back (what a surprise). i feel like an idiot but i've learnt things, thanks for the link joke19.
