First attempt in AnTuTu benchmark:
For its price it has great equipment and power. It would be great if this awesome device will got its own forum.
Cheers!
Great phone, i have the V970 witch is the same on the outside, but totally different phone.
Yeah, the V970 (aka Grand X) has Tegra 2 chipset and less RAM (512MB.), the rest looks to be identical with the Grand X IN. Some people complain about the creaking back cover, but I havent noticed any problems with the construction. The edges are comfortably rounded, only the MicroUSB hole looks "low-cost" ZTE also promised Jelly Bean update which will fix the short touch buttons backlight. Intel was testing the JB update a few months ago, so it should be released in Q1 2013.
The application compatibility is ... almost the same as with an ARM chipset. Every app I've tryed is working fine, smooth and without lags, except Trial Xtreme 2 game which lagging like hell, video and audio too. Just a few minutes before I noticed some problems with Wifi internet, the connection looks stable, its not disconnecting, but the internet is working only for a few second in periods for example it works 3 sec. in 30sec. period. Strange. My wifi router signal is stable and strong, other devices are working fine. Yesterday and today I was on the same wifi too and without a single problem. Strange. Also once when I was copying a huge file from PC to phone via USB with MTP, the phone simply rebooted. I hope these bugs will be fixed in forthcoming FW update.
Yeah, the V970 (aka Grand X) has Tegra 2 chipset and less RAM (512MB.)

The V970 uses MTK6577 and 1gb ram. There is also Grand X Mimoza with the characteristics you wrote.
Overall, we have 3 phones that look exactly the same from the outside ( besides the sticker and the front camera on the IN), but totally different inside...
Anyway, this is Grand X IN topic, so i'll be shutting up now :silly:

WARNING(about custom ROMs):
As of now (23th December), at least in Polish version of Grand X In(4gb internal memory, no fmradio), there is no possibility to revert rom back to original one. If any of XDA users has any idea how to fix this problemm, please share. Also if you have noticed similair behaviour on other devices and there was a solution for it, please post it!
As far the following steps have been made:
installing Romanian/Norwegian/Hungarian versions of rom
restoring original recovery
changing build.prop to original one
editing build.prop and changing persist.service.adb.enable=1 to persist.service.adb.enable=0
It seems like device is not being correctly recognised while trying to switch back to original ROM(T-mobile PL version).
What I saw on some Hungarian forums, there is no problem with returning the original ROM. They also tryed combinating the Xolo X900s kernel and ROM with the GXINs kernel and ROM. X900s ROM was running good on stock kernel even if the resolution was different, also the BT/Wifi wasnt working.

Hi guys,
I've been looking for an unlock method for this phone lately and had no success. Didn't find any free or pay services which work proven. Does one of the custom roms unlock also or any ideas?
Thanks!

I'm really thinking about getting this device, but I'm waiting for some informations from xda developers - some custom roms etc. I have HTC HD2 for now, so I need device with a lot of customizations for example android 4.2
It's coming for me tomorrow ...can't wait!!!
Great Smartphone!
New good Android-Phone from ZTE for the good price. Great!
Unfortunately, I don't see any movement for this excellent phone from the developers in xda. Maybe they don't like the Intel processor?

In several places I've seen there is working ClockworkMod recovery for GXIN, but haven't find any tutorial. Anyone?

In Hungarian forum you have working custom recovery. I don't know is it the CWM or not. And not custom roms they posted about stock roms from this countries. Problem with returning the original ROM now is solved.

No, it's not the CWM, it's the 3e Recovery (I think).
Right... now I get the part about (custom) roms, I misunderstood it for the first time.
Smg else.
As for the Polish forum, I guess it was referred to This site.

Oh, Sorry, my bad! I meant "Custom" not "Clockworkmod" recovery! Sorry for misinformation!
Anyway, I dont have too much time right now to pay attention at all of those GXI communities (Austria, Poland, Hungary), I only watch the Hungarian huge GXI thread at mobilarena.hu. I will try to update the main post with all the fresh informations, but cant guarantee.

Made a custom built firmware for Teclast P76TI. It is based on the latest LY-F1 and teclast ICS firmwares, and also has market built in (and working). The top buttons are also remapped to volume up and volume down instead of being menu and back (which are present at the bottom of the screen anyway)
The downloads also contain the LiveSuite from Ainol, as that also works on Windows 7 x64
There are two builds, one for tablets with a Goodix touch screen controller (revisions 1-3). Chose this if the other teclast ICS firmwares WORK on your device, as they are only support this touch screen controller:
http://android.sztupy.hu/dl/a10/Teclast_P76TI_r1-3_4.0.3_GAPPS_r2.7z
The other is for tablets which have an F5TX touch screen controller (rev4, built after 15 dec 2011). Choose this if you have recently bought the tablet and you find that other teclast ICS firmwares do NOT work on your tablet (as they lack support for this touch screen driver):
http://android.sztupy.hu/dl/a10/Teclast_P76TI_r4_4.0.3_GAPPS_r2.7z
Main changes are:
1. Only the base AOSP apps, the File Manager and Video Player is included
2. But you have both Market and most Google Apps (Google Plus and Car Home is missing)
3. Menu and Back top buttons are remapped to Volume Up/Volume Down
4. It also works on newer Teclast tablets, with f5tx touchscreen controllers
5. Added a simple app called AllwinnerMod, to easily change the build.prop on the fly
The AllwinnerMod app can be used to change the tablet's build.prop to "SGS2" for games that think your tablet is not compatible with them (and change back if you want to). You can also remap the physical buttons with it, so for example you can change how the back and home buttons work with it. You can also switch with it to "phone" mode, by changing the dpi settings if you don't like the tablet mode of ICS. All this on-the-fly without using adb.
Changelog:
r1: initial build
r2: fixed su and build.prop. Added AllwinnerMod application

Hi sztupy, thanks for the mod rom to p76ti. I install the ics-r3to my tablet, so far works great, i really like the remape feature, but the bottom can't be hided automaticlly, it takes some space not friendly, also i found the menu key doesn't shows in some apps, i have to remape the menu key out. I hope if these can be fixed, the ICS will perform perfect.
How did you edit RFSFAT16_SYSTEM? Simg2img works fine with the Novo7 Advanced firmware, but it doesn't with the Ployer and Teclast ICS images.

Strange, as I definitely used simg2img to extract the teclast system partition (the Android 4.0.3 release, haven't tried with the 4.0.1 ones). (I had to use a different make_ext4fs avialable from a Samsung Galaxy S II topic though, as the android one didn't set the premissions in the /bin directory)
Which unpack and which simg2img did you use? Was the download fine? (not corrupted)
This is the version of simg2img (and mkuserimg) I currently use. I've created a custom ROM for my Bmorn V11, based on the Novo7 Advanced official 4.0.3 with the 3.0.8 kernel from the Ployer Momo9C and it works fine apart from some brightness issues.
Teclast A10t
hi

[ROM][HARDWARE][ Teclast P85 ] official Android 4.0.3 Firmware
Hello Guys,
Sorry to post there an unrelated (or indirectly) post about a Teclast P85 tablet (seems I still don't have enought posts to create my own topic).
So I just received it yesterday:
For the price, the hardware quality is unbeatable,very nice alu shell. but software is awfully buggy! (and the screen sharpness is so-so but for the price can't really expect better... )
This one came with Android GB 2.3.4, but when I tried to connect to my Wifi network, it killed definilitely the Wifi menu : it rebooted the tablet and the menu was no longer available. Useless. So, I downloaded from the Teclast website the last firmware in ICS 4.0.3: it works much better, except the recurrent message about "android.process.acore".
I had hard time to download the ROM, (speed limit up to 4ko/s!) so I wanted to make this post to propose a faster link to download this ROM if some people are interested. I will also answer your questions about this device with pleasure =)

Android.process.acore can be corrected . As ics builds are already rooted , you just have to copy any ICS contacts.apk in the system/app folder and set the permissions like the other files in the folder and restart.

Hi,
Since I'm unable to download the mentioned ROM for my P85 from Teclast.com (time-out, unreachable) I would appreciate another link.
Teclast P85 official firmware
Hello,
I can't post link at the moment, can you give me a email address where I can send it?
The android.process.acore problem can indeed be fixed by adding the missing contacts.apk
I recommand to copy the missing contacts.apk and google apks from a ICS apk dump ( type it into google, you should find it easely =). This really improve the tablet stability, no bug since I did it.
Remaining problem for me:
-no bluetooth via dongle
-no video chat using skype or gtalk
The autonomy is a bit low ( I think 4h in wifi / browsing mode ), some lags with ICS but the ability to charge with micro USB is a great plus !

: Dear Sztupy,
I flash your ROM on my Teclast P76ti. When it boots it stops at the screen which gives you a choice of wizard or not. At this stage the touch screen does not function and I could not progress with any of the hard buttons.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi.
I need a rom with a working camera for skype calls. Is it possible with your rom?
I also noticed that a new LY-F1 firmware was released (10.3.2012). Will you update your rom based on the new version?
Thanks
Hyundai SP Octa Eagle 5″ (Dual SIM, MT6592 based, KK 4.4.2, 1GB RAM, 8GB Flash)
Since there seems to be no specific help at XDA-Devs for this device, I decided to open this thread to help anyone interested...
After much fiddling, I managed to root this phone by following s7yler instructions for a very similar phone:
JIAKE X3S MTK6592 1.7GHz Octa Core 5.0 Inch HD Screen 3G
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2662812
I didn't succeed right away, so I also tried TowelRoot and Kingo, which also didn't work.
FYI, s7yler method also didn't work immediately: since I had already synchronized with my previous Google account and had a small OTA firmware update, I had to boot the phone into the "Factory Recovery" (Vol.Up+Power) and do a "Factory Reset" (bypass "no command", Vol.Down to move highlight, and Vol.Up to enter).
I then had the phone with no SIM or memory card (the default wallpaper was different, too), upon which I refrained from connecting to any wifi, and then retried the procedure that I had already tried many times before.
The VROOT application s7iler links to from his thread was unable to get the job done; I had to resort to "MT6592 ROOT TOOL 1.0" (from http://vondroid.com/resources/mt6592-root-tool.456/, free registration required), which is nothing but an unpacked older version of VROOT, which was able to update itself to a different version than the official one at the site and finally cracked the nut.

Don't forget to install Chainfire's SuperSU afterwards (and then you can get rid of the Chinese apps installed in the process, if you wish so)...
NOTE: there have been various reports around XDA-Devs forums that VROOT might be malware, so YMMV...
EDIT: just found a set of previous instructions for rooting this SOC at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2619101.

EDIT3 (IMPORTANT): if after a reflash, you start seeing a "NVRAM ERROR 0x10" (or the lagging originated by it) in your Hyundai EAGLE, you need to make it go away by following the procedure detailed at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2730486 (ROOT REQUIRED)...
One further question remains: how to install a reliable recovery (CWM/TWRP) fit for this model? Tips welcome... :cyclops:
EDIT: And... I have Recovery (check 1st hidden image in present post). By following instruction from this post at the MTKDroid-Tool thread, it as simple a clicking a couple of times. I'd rather have a bigger font or a touch recovery, but hey, beggars can't be choosers...
EDIT2: And (again)... one must only ask -- I now have fully touch TWRP recovery v2.7.1.0 (stable) installed (see 2nd hidden image below), thanks to yuweng's excellent tutorial/utility:

Hey guys. I'm having a problem with my hyundai eagle battery (it goes from 100% to 60% in less than 30min) can you tell me where could i a new one from ? Or what can i do to make it last a bit longer than -40% per 30min ??
Thanks.
It looks like your battery is done for.
I don't know where this specific batteries can be gotten, but luckily it's a replaceable: just take it out and go around the shops looking for something compatible -- 3 contact 3.7V Li-Polymer 2200mah; watch out for dimensions and polarities, though...

Best way is to flash root supporting rom via SP Flashtools.
Now you can think about "Do you really need it"

I flashed this radio file using THIS tutorial, it improved my 4G network, and somehow improved Gps.. somehow. Remember, Worked in Latvia, if you live in different country this might worse your results so you better do the backup first.
you just need to replace Imei at the end of the file, because using different Imei is illegal in some countries...

Good News, i recently flashed elephone P6000 preloader and lk.bin and it didn't brick, and even more good news that it booted lollipop http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-2443-1-1.html but camera is not working. well the phone thinks that front camera is now back camera. So after all this it means that you can do firmware upgrade from Elephone P6000 and flash roms from it.

Hi bro,
First thanks for the tip off about the working touch in recovery It's very much appreciated :highfive:
Ok so as I understand your stock rom is 4.4.4 KK with no "L" update available from Just5
So you have flashed the Stock P6000 "L" Rom and all works except the camera seems to be switched front to back and vice versa
I assume you have tried the obvious like trying another camera app from play store?
Try flash back your stock lk.bin or flash the "L" version lk.bin if you didn't already do that then see if that makes any difference
I am sure I spotted some camera stuff in the config of the lk.bin
I could be wrong though as I have seen so much code lately things tend to blend into each other :laugh:

1)You're welcome bro
2)Yap stock KK rom , still no one knows about L update for Blaster, maybe when Ota for P6000 comes out there might be update to L for Blaster, but as i said it's a big question mark. (source Just5 Support)
3)I personally have flashed Flyme os(v4.v5,v6( i think)) Stock P6000 8.3 rom (Full flash and format, Including preloader, lk, custom and so on.) and then update to 8.4 via Ota( which seems to stopped working right at the moment( network connection error) And then Android L( also full flash and format, Including preloader, lk, custom and so on.) Beta 2 and Beta 3.
I wish that it would be like that, atleast both cameras would be working, ( alright let me explain, right now only front camera is working, it can take shots with 6mp, and for example if i would like to take picture of my head, it would be upside down, and in many diffrent colours. the worst thing is that you cant even switch to back camera( thats why i think that phone thinks that my front camera is now my back camera, and my back camera is now my front camera, which isnt selectable) i hope i didnt confuse you even more, because at 3pm and 0 hours of sleep, thinking and typing is not the thing you want to think about
4)Yap i tryed many different cameras, no luck
5)intresting so do flash but this time instead of using p6000 lk.bin i use stock lk.bin, hmm revolutionary idea ( as i said i did Firmware upgrade with all the p6000 sp flashtool files (including Preloader. lk.bin, custom.img and so on.)
Tryed The revolutionary idea kinda failed, phone still booted, but camera styed the same.
Wait There has been Miui Ported for p6000? its my favorite rom, and of course has some big bugs, but still waiting with my fingers crossed

Hmmm
Even the Elephone as Stock has big problems with the camera mine too :laugh:
Can you try it with the Auto Rotation OFF and see if that improves things a little
I think we may need to wait for Elephone to fix things in the stock rom first before we try track down your issue.
Once fixed we may be able to decompile the camera apk and remap the camera's :fingers-crossed:

You do know that the camera issue is only for Android L, right?
Yeah if we compare Just5 and Elephone stock cameras somehow Just5 won the round, i dont know why but camera on Just5 stock takes better pictures than Elephone stock. but still
My galaxy ace 5mp camera takes better pictures than on both phone stock roms, on phones with 13 mp back and even 5mp front camera,
And btw whats with the chineese apps in Beta 3?

Hi,
Yes I know. :good:
I have not flashed L at all so I can't comment on it really but I know the Russians are complaining about the camera on beta 3 :laugh:
My KK camera quality is rubbish as you say :laugh:
Again I think it will be drivers issues like for our touch so lets wait for all the bugs to get sorted then look at your problem if it still remains that is.

Actually There is a camera patch from Just5 Blaster made by z0rgent its posted in 4pda forums. but yeah kinda new Soc and it might take time till all the bugs are gone.
Just to chime in I captured the OTA download address's and both are 404 now.
The camera fix from z0rgent is 1 lib and the blaster kernel (what can't that kernel do).
For the blaster camera; I would suggest comparing some libs against the P6000 but if works fine on Flyme etc ...
With beta3 the Chinese apps took me all of 5 minutes to disable; I didn't expect them at all - with Flyme sure, but not a beta L. Perhaps it indicates the intended us of /custom; individual apps for various networks (similar to the three version of Flyme; but simpler as those are three full ROMs).
Just had a thought... couldn't we house gapps in /custom - I think it's big enough - with L at least.
Hi is the stock ROM available anywhere in any form?

Thanks for this info bro :good:
I did not think it would be an OTA really so I think they may give you a download link for the upgrade rather than you having to send the phone back for upgrade
Thanks bro :highfive:
Reserved, why? because instead of editing my previous post, i clicked reply, and i didnt notice it...
Any news on lollipop update? Phone randomly shuts down, i hope that bug is covered.
Hi,
I just got a Lenovo A616 as gift. It has the latest firmware (A616_S023_150110).
The phone itself says it has a MediaTek MT6752
4x ARM Cortex-A53 (32-bit ARMv7
GPU Renderer Mali-T760
As it does not seem that there is a sub-forum for these and I only stumbled across a guy that isnt able to root his device
and one ROM on another site :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/help-root-lenovo-a616-t3254634
http://www.needrom.com/download/lenovo-a616-2/
I wanted to know if there is any similarity to other lenovo phones regarding custom roms...or if I shall instantly forget about this phone ? :silly:
I really like this phone, except for the very bad camera and many apps/games force closing for no reason (maybe 512mb is no longer enough)
I like the additonal "security features" and the overall design of VIBE UI.
Even the built-in "ROM recovery" (which wont download a ROM) mentions rooting and recovery...but I cant find custom ROMs and the chinese forums only revealed there is VIBUE UI 3.0 now.
I would really like to try rooting and custom ROMS, or at least know if VIBE UI 2.7.176 will be updated to the new 3.0 or if this phone will recieve Android 5.0 (its not enlisted in the lenovo upgrade matrix anyway?)
But again, I cant find much about this device.

}
I do now it uses "VIBE UI" (bbs.vibeui.com)
I read on the chinese lenovo forum, that "VIBE UI 3.0" got announced.
As there is not much to find about these phones, a video from youtube about "VIBE UI 2.0" had the lockscreen image of the hot-air-ballon
which my phone has as well. So I might have UI 2.0. (?)
Anyone with any idea how to check which VIBE UI is currently installed on my phone and if there are attempts on putting newer UIs to older phones ?
I start to like this phone, with all its additonal features and security options...if just the camera wouldnt be a 320x240 one, calling itself 5 MP
Im pretty aware that the A616 isnt the most powerfull phone, but similar phones get the VIBE UI 3.0 upgrade and
will recieve lollipop according to Lenovos upgrade matrix.
And even if many ppl arent happy with the lollipop update on the lenovo forums...I wonder why I cant find any infos reagarding UI 3.0
or lollipop for the A616. It got release din dec. 2014 and I cant find much...
Also I cant find the malaysian / chinese upgrade matrix.
p.s.
Recovery works VolUp+Power
Why do chinese recovery look so...different ? ;D
needrom.com
Has anybody tried the rom of this phone available in the site needrom.com?
I have also found that 2 ROMs, but comments arent 100% positive or questions only.
But the tool seems to be ready for various MTK chp based china mobile phones :
SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject.exe
http://androidurdu.net/flash-china-phone-mtk-multi-port-flash-tool/
Still, those 2 ROMs are based on the original ROM, dont have gapps and compass(?)..and Im not sure what the difference would be.
The email [email protected] is no longer working (?) (5.1.1 User unknown)
Anyone knows who else I could contact at lenovo about this matter ?
Probably not related to xda at all...anyone registered there already ? Is it safe ?
http://myanmarxda.com/index.php?topic=1753.0
The phone itself says it has a MT6752
4x ARM Cortex-A53 (32-bit ARMv7
GPU Renderer Mali-T760
Now I read there is a "chinese phone root app" and people having problems with it and getting CWM run...as there is no real (complete) tutorial...(?)
needrom.com working
There are two A616 roms at needrom.com
I've flashed the gapps one. Everything working fine except the following:
In my case, the big big big problem is the f***ing Lenovo bloatware (even keyloggers)
That slows down the phone a lot.

Thank you for the information !
Too bad
Which app did you use to root your phone ? Did you install CWM ?
I have a Lenovo A5800-d that can be flashed with the A616-rom that needrom offers. But I cannot get Imei recovered. so it is useless. I have a chinese rom found on baidu for my phone. It is rooted and working smooth, but I cannot get playstore working on it. That is a kind of a problem. With help of titanium backup, I can get most of my apps in english or dutch and imei is ok. But I cannot use google services like agenda updates.
Perhaps that chinese rom works for you. It is called A5800-d_S022_Root.
Is there someone who knows a solution for my playstore-problem?

Custom Stock ROM v1
Due to confusion and minor bugs that required some user input I have removed the TWRP version and replaced it with this SPFlashTool version.
Before Flashing:
This ROM will wipe your internal sd_card including Pictures, Music, etc, etc on it. BACKUP First You have been warned!!!
This ROM is NOT a full Android upgrade so please make sure you are already on Android 6.0 (MM)
Whats Different bigrammy??
boot.logo Now Black instead of the White burning out your eyeballs one.
bootanimation. Now Black Pixel animation.
Default wallpapers Desktop and lockscreen Now Pixel Blue (no more boats)
Pixel Launcher
Assistant enabled
Sony id enabled (Allows you to install some Sony app's from the play store like keyboard)
Ported Sony Music Album and Video directly from my Sony C4 mt6752 device.
These are Just to name a few but has lots of other minor mods I have forgotten about.
Installing and things to Note:
MM TWRP is included in the ROM.
Please flash the entire ROM or I/we will not know whats causing the problems should there be any.
After the flash is complete boot to recovery ONLY and flash Magisk Latest Stable release HERE
First time boot takes 10 minutes so do not panic. As soon you see the boot animation go make a cup of coffee and wait.
It will boot guaranteed if you see the bootanimation. :fingers-crossed:
The reason it seems to take so long is that the boot animation continues until fully booted so you do not see the usual dialog box "updating app 1 of xxx" etc
Ensure you update Google Play Services via the playstore (Doing this First ensures smooth and uninterrupted updates of the other playstore apps)
Update all other app's listed in playstore/my apps
Note app's like trackid will only display in portrait as our device res is not officially supported.
Credit to HootanParsa for the Awesome file explorer his thread is HERE Please leave your thanks there too.
Ensure to check all app permission and choose the Pixel launcher as default.
See post #3 for instruction on hiding the SIM icon in the notifications bar.
Lastly But Most important please LEAVE SOME FEEDBACK
I know it will not be to everyone's tastes so feel free to mod add remove install what you like.

Hi chris5s,
Yes good point & I have been mulling this over since I started this dedicated MM 6.0 thread.
I really don't want to be dragged into the world of noobs and SPFlashtool, driver installation, flashing, etc as they will swear blacks white and whites black regardless of how well it's all explained. So I will put up the links along with a strong warning that I/we will not expand on SPflashTool drivers etc etc for installation of the Original MM ROM and TWRP recovery.
All the Best.
Edit: All Done anything I missed let me know.
@bigrammy Excellent work on the thread.
Since I don't have this tablet anymore, my information are probably not updated. This is an amazing device, and I enjoyed every bit of it. It's still running strong with my younger brother.
I shall put a link to this thread in mine so that people can come here for most current information.
Great job on the new thread, looks great and should streamline the process of the noobs and experienced alike find what they need and point them in the right direction. Great tutorial. The reason Android will keep growing is because of people like ones that have been involved with the dev work on this tablet, and all the projects here on XDA..
I was just comparing my A10-70F running 6.0.1 with my mother's which is on stock 5.0.1 and found that my screen was distinctly dull and grey in comparison. After removing f.lux and checking all the display and battery settings were the same I was stumped.
That was until I discovered that the brightness slider setting does absolutely nothing on mine!
Does it work for everyone else?
@mr-br working fine here :good:
@mr-br People with non-working brightness sliders on this tablet usually have enabled auto-brightness somehow, which does not work, as the tablet doesn't have an ambient light sensor. If you disable auto-brightness (for which you might need an app, as there are no controls for it in the standard settings app), then the brightness slider should work again.
Yes tx I found this seems to be a generic issue with this tablet. Found the app via a thread on the lenovo forum.
"I just installed the App "Best Display Brightness Level" from "Top10Labs" out of the GPlay-Store, then start it and uncheck the "Auto Brightness" tick Smiley Happy After that, i can use the built in brightness slider, even after uninstall the app Smiley Happy"
My screen still has rather a blue cast though ...
Has anyone installed this ROM coming from (rooted) stock 5.0.1 yet?

To which ROM do you refer??
If you mean the Stock then pretty much everyone I guess.
If you mean my custom stock then nobody has even bothered to report anything back at all.
I am pretty sure it would be just fine but until a few report back to it's OK I cant offer any Guarantees.
If your use to SPFlashTool then restoring the tablet would not be an issue anyway.
Yes, I do mean the stock Lenovo 5.0.1. Another question would be on your custom ROM 6.0, are there any issues for Tab2 A10-70F? As I have observed, you and others in Europe have the L version, which is not available to us in the US. Also, thank you for your hard work and guidance for the device, it is appreciated.

Most of us and me included are on the "F" version I think..
It is just that the L firmware also works on our F versions.
Maybe I should make it clear that my ROM is the WiFi version only as I stripped some of the RIL parts out of the ROM
Good news! I look forward to flashing your ROM and getting 6.0 on my tablet. Thank you for your patience in addressing my concerns and questions.
