stuck on Chinese ROM - Lenovo P780

Hello all my friends. I have some trouble yet again with our lovely p780. I updated to the Vibe ui 2.0 stable release. It's great but I can't find a custom recovery for it and the partition is frustrating me. I have an 8 gb device and the update divided the partition in a way that takes a large potion of my data and locks it away for the system data. And I am stuck on the Rom. I have been trying to flash back to ROW all day. Every time I try to flash back to ROW the spflash tool gives errors about missing documents. Any ideas? If I'm stuck on this ok but could someone help me fix the partition and find a custom recovery that works?
I found a custom recovery that works. I just used the same as the chinese twrp that works on all the older ones.

Im getting an error that says PMT changed for rom it must be downloaded.
I have no clue what that is or where to find it and it says this for every rom other than s135.. I'm trying to flash back to s124 so I can go up to the newer s226. I have tried update only, firmware upgrade, with and without preload files. I have the drivers installed.
Thanks for trying to help me out stympy.

Here is what you have to do: Try to use only Flash Tool 3 not 5.
1. Download your ROM, must be 124ROW with Flash Tool
2. Download Life ROM for your phone 4 GB or 8GB. I do not know what type of ROM you have.
3. First try to flash Life
4. If you manage to flash Life boot once and then power off your phone and try to flash 124 ROW ROM.
5. Tell me if something goes wrong !

Hi. What you have here is the latest Chinese software. You cannot root with my tutorial. There are other software to do that.
This is what i recomend: flash a ROW ROM. Stock ROW ROM you will find in the development section. After flash do an OTA update. After update my tutorial for rooting will work.

Hi. you got a 6.1.6 rom , gapps and root included at needrom.com ( some chinese crap).
What rom do you have?? is it 8GB or 4GB version? I would really thank you if you have european rom and you can share it.
For deodexing, an easy way is downloading androidtweaker2 from playstore. It´s got a deodexing tool.

with 6.2.4 rom kingoroot worked, should be other ways.
Not customs roms as long as I know.
At forum.china-iphone.ru there´s a threat about this phone with a tutorial to install CWM. (didnt try yet, dont know if it works properly).
---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------
take care because all roms avaliable are for china version (1/4 GB) and it seems are not totally compatible with 1/8 gb versions ( at least an user reported camera not working after installing w969.6.1.6 to an 1/8 gb bougth in sudafrica, same version than european).

There is no custom roms available at the moment, towelroot works good in rooting your phone. I accidentally wiped my phone and flashed the chinese rom W969.6.1.6 and my main camera is not working anymore, the rom also contained malware (funweather) that was a struggle to delete. My phone was bought in South Africa I havent gone back to the shop to go check what version software the phone is suppose to run, but there is not much available online.
My advice dont go further than rooting your phone. It will be appreciated if you can backup and share your rom.:good:

Hi EGcrasher,
can you tell me the exact steps i have to do to backup my ROM ? I need to use an app or I can do all by connecting the mobile to the computer?
I want a backup of my rom also to be sure to be able to come back at the original status.
I think that to have a perfect backup of my rom i need first to do a factory data reset.
Than what i have to do ???? I'm sorry but i need a basic guide... can I ask also you what you have uninstalled after rooted the phone?
Anyway my phone kernel version is 3.4.0 and the software version is W1002.6.03.00.EU00 and my total space is 6.11 GB
To root i go to website towelroot... and only install the apk and nothing else, right?
Thanks!

Looking at your build number, that is probably what my phone was running, I use to have a samsung phone and support was readily available hence I never bothered to backup a rom. I will find out how to do it practice on my phone and get back to you.

I have to root the phone with "Towelroot" or "Root genius" both should work but which one is better? ...and after that I need only to install a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP) and do the backup of the original system image. But this is the problem... which custom recovery i can install for the hisense U971 ???

[Q] How do I downgrade from 5.1 to 5.02, Dell 7840

Hi
I current have 5.1 rooted 7840 and wanted to know if I can go back to 5.02. After 5.1 I'm having issues with audio, crackling sound while playing games and typing touch keyboard; so, I want to go back to 5.02 if possible. I've tried to restore to kitkat nandroid backup that I've download from the fourm but it gives me "Error while flashing boot image!" I'm guessing I cannot go back to kitkat while I'm on lollipop. If someone can show me how to go back to 5.02 or even kitkat (both had no audio issue) I'd appreciate it.
Thank you

If the crackling sound is your only concern, try to disable the MaxxAudio app and reboot. At least it works for me.
Disabling Maxxaudio does not work for me.

i completely wiped and re-installed 5.0.1 on my tab a few days ago. Worked perfectly with the procedure described in the link. Just be sure that fastboot AND adb-drivers are installed beforehand.
From what I gathered there is no system image file...so how does it downgrade based on a 25 meg file? Do I need to flash the other zips as well or just the one listed?

you're right, but xBIGREDDx provided a dump of system.img some time ago, which i'm really glad for. If you stick to this thread you should have no problems reverting back to 5.0.1. But it's really not the easiest way when you're used to other vendors where you just need to flash something on your custom recovery of choice.
Ive messed up 5.1 system so i needed to flash clean rom and i did as in post above. Now im having Android 5.0.2 and i cannot update to Android 5.1....OTA file gives me Error 0.
Any solution? Thanks

downgrade my MT2-L05

hello guys,
i have a MT2-L05 with LOLLIPOP ( MT2-L05C00B850 ). Since i have some troubles with my applications (facebook, wakeup, camera,...).
i wish to put back the older version THE KITKAT 4.4.4
i can't find out how to downgrade my smartphone
is it possible that someone explains me how to do it step by step and tells me where to files for download please.
i'm french so sorry for my english.
thank you in advance.
Do you have an sd card? Are you still on stock recovery? Are you familiar with flashing a different firmware via the stock recovery? If so, I believe firmware version B611 will flash over B850 and allow you to install KitKat, either B603 or B606.

Hello,
Another user had the same problem in the index thread, and I found him a link to Huawei's firmware page for the L05. The problem is... the page is in Chinese.
Also, another user said it did not work for him, and he downgraded using another method.
Here are some quotes from the thread:

I have tried. I am using L05. Downgrading from 5.1 to 4.x stock roms will fail. Installation does not go pass the 1% mark. There nothing wrong with my sd card or the file cos before upgrading to LP, I just used it to flash back to 4.4.2 stock.
Btw, if anyone root or modify the stock 4.4.2 before, upgrading to LP will fail also, even if u do a factory reset. So what I did was wipe the whole thing by flashing back the stock with the 3 button magic..
As with the L03, changing dpi will also crash the phone. So pls do not try.
I also just realise that the default Huawei app store have a lot of goodies in there. Including all Google apps and those sync adaptors required for contacts and calenders. Explore it.

You should send a message to @scpion and hopefully he will respond and give you a solution.
Erm.. I dun think I have a solution... I didn't try again after failing multiple time during then.. I didn't have problems with 5.1.1 either so I lived with it.. Ha.. But now it's just sitting in my drawer due to lack of development for L05.. Not as "fun" as my other phones.. Good luck...
Probably backup your data and do a hard reset or flash the stock 5.1.1 again. From my experience with it, I didn't have any major problem and the firmware is pretty good.

Are you on stock recovery? I can't remember where I downloaded my firmwares from, usually whichever link google would turn up. Google translate seemed to work well enough to translate Chinese to English for me whenever I've tried to find a file.

If you can go to TWRP recovery then use flashable stock rom to recover your phone.Or try flashing boot.img from the stock rom also.This should work.

I'm going totry this tomorrow cause it's very late here and I'm working early

Yes you can try this rom.Looks fresh to me but can't guarantee it will not contain any bugs or issues.And be sure this rom only made for your device.

If you face any problem and need to improve or add new features in the rom just comment in the Rom's thread or PM that Rom Developer because he is the one who build rom for your device.Here me or anyone can't help you with this. And always use stable build.Don't try too fast to try Recently developing Alpha,beta or nightly rom.It contains too many issues and bugs.but if you want to help developer and you know how to handle your phone in such bad situation you can go for those builds and provide Dev log to develpoer.

Lenovo P780 - Suddenly Encryption failed and cannot flash with stock rom

Hi, my aunt bought her Lenovo P780 from Hongkong and suddenly it has "Encryption failed". Ofc reset does nothing and I wanted to just flash it with stock rom. Problem is, that I have never been flashing lenovo before, only Samsung. I have SPF v5 and downloaded rom from this forum but I am getting errors: "DRAM smth" or "no_space". After these errors I can't even boot the phone. Could you please tell me what should I download and what to do with it? I am dumb donkey, remember.

Hi.
You can use the firmware you need. If your phone is 4 GB you must flash the firmware for this phone.
If you dont know that you can flash the 4 Gb firmware first. See if that firmware is flashing.
As for the SP Flash Tool try to flash with both.
In the #19 post, my post, is described in detail what you must do.
Dont be afraid. The phone is allready broken. Just joking!
Have faith and curage.
Good Luck.

I am f***ing done. Followed your links, read everything, tried with 5 different roms, replaced preloader and nothing. After changing preloader error changed to:
S_FTHND_FILE_IS_NOT_LOADED_YET
1. Check if the DA path is correct
2. Check if all ROM files exist
3. Check if the scatter file description is sync with the exist ROM.
Why it has to be so hard?!?! :'(

I think, from what you described me right now, that is an problem with the internal memory.
My advice is to go to an service store and see what they are telling you.
