[Official Marshmallow] Lenovo Vibe X3 (Only For X3a40) [Stock Frimware] [Flashing]

This Guide Tells You How To Update Your Lenovo Vibe X3 (X3a40 Variant) To The Latest Marshmallow Firmware​​
Warning
If This Bricks Your Phone I Am Not Responsible Although It Is Very Safe But If You Do Anything Stupid It May Brick The Phone If This Happens Repeat All The Steps Again Without Messing Up It Should Fix The Phone​
List Of Things Required For Updating Your Device​Drivers + QFIL - https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B5QzQ51ejd3rLWREYmNjWjNwV1U&usp=sharing
Lenovo Vibe X3 Marshmallow Firmware - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6fGoFSBPp8QcWtaUlcwVTMxMHc/view?usp=sharing​​
Lets Begin
Flashing Guide​
WARNING: Everything apart from data in external SD card will be wiped. Make sure to backup everything.
1.Download the QFIL flash package ZIP and appropriate ZIP from Drivers+QFIL.
2.Extract the ZIPs to a folder whose complete path has no spaces (space characters) at all.
3.Make sure you uninstall any other phone's PC Suite/drivers as they may cause conflicts. Microsoft Emergency Driver (installed for restoring Lumia devices) is known to conflict, please uninstall it.
4.Go to Drivers+QFIL folder extracted in Step 2, run the appropriate 'INSTALL_DRIVERS_&_QFIL.bat' and follow the instructions.
5.Backup contacts, SMS, apps, etc. as well as the entire internal storage as they will all be wiped(you will setup a new phone). Internal storage WILL BE erased when using the QFIL flash method.
6.Run 'QFIL' program. (If Unable To Find It Search It In Start Menu You Will Find It There)
7.Select 'Flat Build' as build type.
8.Click on 'Browse', select the 'prog_emmc_firehose_8992.mbn' file from the 'X3a40_S217_160623_ROW_QFIL' folder which you extracted.
9.Click on 'Load XML' and select 'rawprogram0.xml' followed by 'patch0.xml'.
10.Make sure you completed each step precisely, the USB cable is connected ONLY to USB port (USB 2.0 preferably) of PC and not to device yet, the device is powered off and is charged (at least 40%).
11.Now boot into EDL by plugging in the USB cable to device and quickly pressing and holding power button for ~1 second. QFIL's 'No port available' text should change to 'Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COMXX)'. The display will stay off so, don't worry about it.
12.Within ~5 seconds put the device on a stable surface (so that it doesn't move around or shake) and press the 'Download' button on QFIL. If you are late, the device starts to power on normally and you need to go back to Step 11 and continue.
13.Wait for the flash to complete and 'Download Succeeded' message appear at the bottom.
14.Unplug the USB cable from the device and press and hold the power button for ~10 seconds to power it off.
15.Now power on the device normally. If display doesn't turn on press and hold the power button again for longer time, it will boot.
16.Once you have finished the initial set up, open dialer, dial '####682#', choose your region (IN - For India) and confirm. [Don't Skip This Step Its Important]
NOTE - IF Having Trouble In Installing The Drivers Or Detecting The Phone In QFIL Google On How To Disable Signature Enforcement In Windows 8 or 8.1 or 10 And After Doing That Again Install The Drivers.
HIT Thanks Button If I Helped You It Will Keep Me Motivated In Helping Others
TIPS & INFORMATION​The various modes X3a40 can boot into:
Recovery mode: Press and hold Volume up + Volume down + Power together until Lenovo logo shows up and flickers once. Release the buttons and you will reach the recovery. This opens up the recovery of the device.
Qualcomm Diagnostics mode: Press and hold Volume down + Power button together until Lenovo logo shows up and flickers once to boot into this mode. This opens up the Qualcomm Diagnostics screen which has a number of hardware testing and other tools along with ability to flash the stock ROM. It is also used for further Diagnosis using a PC.
Fastboot mode: Press and hold Volume up + Volume down and plug in the USB cable(already connected to PC). You may also use the ADB command "adb reboot bootloader". Obviously you need a working device with USB Debugging turned on and ADB installed on PC. This opens the traditional Fastboot interface.
EDL mode: Plug the USB cable and quickly press and hold the power button for a little while. Device stays in EDL only for ~5 seconds unless you start firmware flash via QFIL. You can also use ADB command "adb reboot edl". This will put your device in Qualcomm Emergency Download Mode which is meant to flash stock firmware using QFIL tool on working/bricked devices.
Normal mode: This is what you boot by normally pressing the power button. I don't need to say much about this one.
Keep your NV data (IMEI, Serial No., etc.) backed up from QFIL>Tools>QCN Backup Restore. Device must be in Qualcomm Diagnostics mode. There are many more ways to do this.
#Note- If Any Of The Link Goes Down Inform Me I'll Bring The Up As soon as Possible.
Will just flashing the SuperSU zip enable me to get root in Marshmallow rom?
Or should I do everything from this thread again to gain root? I already have root in my lollipop and want to update to Marshmallow only if I can get root in it.

How to Root the CAT s60 ... ... and more !!!

Since i am afraid, that my Guide will dissapear in the other Thread,
i post this guide in a new Thread !
I have just uploaded a collection of, how i have named it, - s60 essentials - there are ALL files included to flash stock, update to .033, flash twrp recovery and root.
(this is for Win7 x86, you have to check if it works for other versions yourself, sy..)
Here is my collection
HOW TO.... Stock, Update, custom recovery and root your s60 !!!!
Disclaimer: if you brick your phone, it's your fault, i have tested this way of rooting my s60 now for a several times and it works 100%
SO READ TWICE, CHECK TWICE, BEFORE YOU CLICK ONCE !!!!! i will not take any responsibility !!!
Thanks to everybody who contributed here in this thread (Cesarq, OpenMinded, Tuschi, BetonJohn, etc.......) the software in the link
is the collected data, freely available in the net and linked in the original Thread several times, i have only bundled one package and wrote
this, hopefully usefull guide.
in principle do as follows: (I will only explain once how to sideload or load via recovery, afterwards i will only state what kind and what file)
Prerequists
- install USB drivers (for recovery and adb)
- install "minimal ADB and fastboot"
- copy the two updates (update032 & update033) into the folder, where you have installed "minimal ADB and fastboot" (makes live easier later)
- install QPST (the version of QPST is the one from Androidmtk and should be virusfree
(The version of QFIL in my collection is the one without reboot, so you have to reset/reboot your phone manually (resetbutton below hatchdoor on your phone) whenever
stated in this guide.
- format micro SD card in fat32 ! and copy SuperSU.zip onto it.
- connect a WORKING USB cable to your phone (Not to your PC atm !!!)
getting twrp (for saving your old firmware only)
- power off phone.
- start minimal adb on your PC
- start QFIL (part of QPST) on your PC
- press VOL+ & VOL- simultanousely and connect phone with PC (it will vibrate once, top right LED starts blinking red, screen stays black) - DOWNLOAD MODE -
(just in case: to leave Download mode, press and hold power button for apprx. 15 seconds)
- as soon as you connect your phone to the PC, QFIL should show the Phone/port in the topline allready, if not, either try to manually select the port, or you probably still have
a problem with the USB drivers !
- tick in QFIL Flat Build (top left)
- QFIL - select Programmer, "browse" to the saved location of "update-twrp-recovery-nobootpatch" and select the "prog_emmc.blablabla...mbn" file and doubleclick
- QFIL - "load XML" ,select rawprogramm, doubleclick, select patch0, doubleclick
- QFIL - click on "download"
- if everything was OK up till now, it should start download - BE PATIENT- and read the status window on QFIL, when it shows "finish download"....
- disconnect phone from PC
- press and hold simultanousely POWER and VOL+ and use a small tool to push the reset button on the phone under the hatch, while still pressing Power and Vol+ !
- the phone should now be in twrp recovery. If so, do a full backup now to your (allready inserted and fat32 formatted) microSD card!!!
when done
- Power off your phone !
flashing stock 31.02
- enter download mode again (Vol+ & Vol-, connect phone to PC.......)
- this time in QFIL, browse in programmer path to "s60_stockFW_31.02" and select the programmer from there
- load XML's (the onces that belong to Stock31.02)
- start download... this will take a while !!!! BE PATIENT !!!!
- when QFIL status window shows finish download, push the reset button on the phone and let it reboot.
- it is normal, that the phone should restart itself 2, maximum 3 times at the first start, but sometimes it ends up in a bootloop (Cat Logo, reboot, CAT logo, reboot, etc, etc, .......)
(The bootloop mainly happens, if you clear, in twrp recovery, the whole OS, but that's no issue either...)
- if it ends up in a bootloop, no worries, just continue ! Believe me, i did the process now several times ! )
you are back on stock 31.02 !
-Power off your phone again
Updating to 032
- bring up minimal ADB sideload on your PC (start it, if not allready done in previous step (getting twrp)).
- press and hold POWER and VOL+ button on your phone - RECOVERY MODE -
- when in stock recovery select (with Volume keys) "adb sideload" and click the Powerbutton
- connect your phone to the PC
- on PC, type into the black ADB Terminal window "adb sideload update032.zip" and hit enter
- if drivers are there, phone will start downloading the update now.
- when complete, select clear cache, and clear data then reboot your phone.
- again, same as in the step (flashing stock), if bootloop, no worries, just continue, if it boots up, let it boot up and then..
you're on 032 now
- Power off the phone again
Updating to 033
- do the same steps as described under "Updating to 032" only difference, type in adb window " adb sideload update033.zip"
After updating to 033 your phone should boot up normally now, NO MORE BOOTLOOP !
getting twrp
- this is the same step as above "getting twrp" only difference, this time, no backup needed and...
- when in twrp-recovery, select "install" browse to your micro SD-card, and...
- install SuperSU.zip from SDcard.
- once more, clear cache and data and reboot.
The phone should boot up now, you should be on FW 033, with custom recovery and root !!!
That's all !!!
Would a TWRP or fastboot flashable stock recovery let us apply future OTA updates without wiping and starting from stock 031 if we're using systemless root like Magisk?
From stock recovery you can reboot to bootloader which puts us in fastboot (you can select boot mode with Vol +/-), so I'm thinking if we could boot TWRP from fastboot (without flashing, obviously), we could back up the stock recovery. Then when the next update comes around, we flash stock recovery back, apply the update, then reflash TWRP.
I tried fastboot boot recovery.img from update-twrp-recovery-nobootpatch but I got
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
and rebooting into recovery from there just got me stock recovery which makes sense.
QCN please
Hi guys, can anyone share me QCN backup of S60 because i've lost it! Thanks.
Last update for Android 6.0 was from 766 days ago.
Any suggestions on how to patch?
Thanks a million
