Yes for settings and all stock app. All apps added by myself are not translated

brief assessment of the costum rom "pemergency" mod = which must be paid
- Setup / flash -> OK
- IMEI must be corrected manually by terminal as tool does not work
- Constant error message "simcard failed" (slot2) although only 1 slot has
- "apex launcher" can not uninstall, then stops at the boot process lenovo screen -> I would also like to use but "default / original" surface.
- Spoke only Russian / English / chinese integrated as standart
- Morelocale2 indeed is an alternative but not "original"
ok, first feedback - hope the rom is modified?

a) no comment
b) IMEI must be corrected and it is mentioned in a manual, it doesnt need to be done by terminal, you can simple generate a file and swap with a root explorer
c) This Rom is for A2107a-h which is a 2 slots device, so I dont see a problem on this point
d) I said as this is modiffication, I decide to remove a stock launcher, you can install any other one of your choice
e) I also answered to your question as for german language only original apps are translated and the main system, on other threeead is clearlly said as this rom using more locale 2 for translation.
f) and as a last one, why you expecting anything original in a modiffied ROM?
I stoping to doing anything with this ROM for a simple reason:
- FREE ROM = 900 downloads,
- PAID ROM FOR £5 = 5 downloads - embarrassing
Why?
and one more thing...
My correspondence with mrbonsen, when I tried to help him out with the installation process is also interesting. About 10 emails with instructions to mrbonsen and also 10 emails of insults from mrbonsen. That means something....
So conclusion is simply... go back to your original firmware and I will give you your £5 back
and also 10 emails of insults from mrbonsen.

if you tool mitsendest + description for the correction of the IMEI, it should work well. not every user knows another solution
But no matter now - can only recommend not to use this rom :good:
ask no insult but (as in the mails) what's wrong on the screen, apex launcher bug or "bug mrbonsen" - display does not turn or apex

You did a great job and 900 downloads are impressive. i have a A2107A-H 1GHz 1GB RAM 16GB Flash - how come nobody is providing feedback or helping out in this development? Could there be a way to update.zip just the standard factory ROM? maybe that could be possible by doing a diff on the chinese and european source code? sorry i'm just a lamer looking to help out. any news from lenovo developers on the 4.1 release?
today is your cwm rom accessible for download for trial?
Ofcourse it is possible to get back the standard ROM just ask someone who still have a European ROM to do a copy by nandroid backup and you can restore this by centeCWM. So after that you will have a stock ROM with CWM but without calling feature.
I nearly finish another ROM with calling feature but this will be based on Russian ROM. I just need to get European system backup to do it same thing with European ROM.

[Newbie] Complete Guide to for Rooting & Install a Custom Rom [Updated 9 Sep 2013]
This is aimed at new "rooters". The process is incredibly easy.
I also take no responsibility if you mess up somehow, and this is for GSM Hero's NOT Sprint Hero CDMA users.

I have now also included a link to z4root as an alternative.
Here is a link to my backup guide but please be aware that most of it requires root access.
Prelude:
Install HTC Sync from here
Download Universal Androot
Download z4root
Download Root Checker - only if you need to
Download AmonRA Recovery v1.7.0.1.img - easier if you rename this "recovery.img" when it is on your sdcard
Place both downloaded files on your SD Card
Root & Recovery
1. Download and install Astro File Manager from the Market (or use any other file management program of your choice)
2. Open Astro and find and install Universal Androot (or if that doesn't work try z4root) from your sdcard:
Select UniversalAndroot.apk > Open App Manager > Install > Settings> [tick] Unknown Sources > OK > Back > Select UniversalAndroot.apk > Open App Manager > Install > Install > Open
3. In the app and choose the correct version from the dropdown box:
Superuser for Android 2.0~2.2 - if you have updated your phone recently
Superuser for Android 1.5~1.6 - if you have refused updates recently or your country/provider hasn't released one yet
Then choose: "Root "
Wait until it says "Woot ! Your device is rooted !" and exit the program.
4. Download and install Android Terminal Emulator from the Market (use Better Terminal instead if this one doesn't work)
5. Run "Terminal Emulator". Type (press and hold menu to get the keyboard up) in the following:
su (press enter and wait for the "Super User Request Prompt". Choose "Allow" and make sure its ticked to Allow every time.)
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img (press enter - make sure this is typed exactly as seen)
N.B. If you have issues here, see * notes below for more assistance
6. Turn off your phone and press Home + Power to start it up again. This should boot into recovery mode.
Install Your Custom Rom
Note: This part of the guide can be repeated with as many different rom's as you like. You do not have to repeat the previous section once you have a recovery image installed.
1. Download a Custom ROM from here to your computer.
2. Make sure your phone is in recovery mode (Home + Power)
Plug your phone into your computer and select "USB-MS toggle" in recovery
Place the Custom ROM on your SD card in the main directory and press Home when it has finished copying over
3. Select Backup/Restore > Nand backup > confirm with Home > Wait
(or Nand + Ext if you have A2SD setup)
4. Press back then select Wipe from the main menu, then select:
Wipe data/factory reset > Home
Wipe cache > Home
Wipe Dalvik-cache > Home
Wipe SD:ext partition > Home
Press back button
Select Flash Zip from SD Card
Select the file
Press Home to confirm
Note: Ignore any "errors", they are normal and usually mean you're not using that feature.
5. Once it is done, select Reboot and you will boot into the new Custom ROM.
Updating your Radio
Note: The radio deals with your signal levels and connectivity.
1. Download the latest radio from the following page
N.B. Radio's are not region specific! Just get the latest
2. Mount your SD Card so your computer can read it and place the downloaded file in the main directory
3. Turn off your phone and boot into the recovery screen (holding Home + Power)
4. Choose:
Flash Zip from SD Card
Pick the radio.zip file and press Home to confirm
Wait
Your phone will reboot a couple of times but when you're back on the Recovery Screen just press reboot system now and it will complete the install and put you back into your custom rom.
DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY OUT, THIS WILL BRICK YOUR HANDSET.
5. When this process has completed reboot the phone and you should have the new radio. This can be checked in Settings > About Phone

Thanks
This is not a guide for the HTC ONE S, new users please disregard this and use one of the guides from our forum.
Yea I was wondering why this was here, you got lost man
THIS GUIDE IS ONLY FOR GALAXY S4 SGH-1337M
Guide made on 2017-03-12
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU DO TO YOUR PHONE!
PERFORMING THIS WILL MAKE YOUR WARRANTY GO AWAY!
LEAVE A THANKS IF IT WORKS
This guide is split up into four parts meaning that if you just want to root your phone or just want to restore to stock then you can YOU CAN NOT INSTALL XPOSED WITHOUT ROOTING AND GETTING STOCK FIRST!
Welcome to my guide on how to install XPOSED on the Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-1337M) this guide is strictly for the SGH-1337M the reason I made this was because I spent a lot of hours trying to put parts of threads together since no one had specifically made a guide that was simple and noob friendly for installing XPOSED. Another reason is some people feel uncomfortable following guides made for the SGH-1337 mainly because it is different from the SGH-1337M. Another reason was I found no updated 2016/2017 guides for it. Follow every part step by step or you may risk losing your phone.
Also make sure you backup anything that isn't synced with Google that you want to keep, photos, music, contacts. This will delete all data on the phone.
