People to Thank
TeamWin - for their awesome recovery.
TeamWin - for their hlte device repo I ported to the klte (kltexxx in this case)
ricky310711 - for providing dumps and testing
leoaudio13 - for providing access to device and testing
utkanos - for his original work on hlte (which all this is based off of)
Known Issues
Write permissions to internal storage.
How to install via adb shell
Have USB drivers installed
Connect phone to PC
Open terminal or cmd
Code:
adb push recovery.img /data/local/tmp/recovery.img
Code:
adb shell su -c dd if=/data/local/tmp/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
How to install with Odin
(USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
Start Odin3-vX.X.exe
Click the PDA button, and select twrp-klte.tar
Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold VolDown+Home+Power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button, or run adb reboot download command)
(USB) Connect the phone to your computer
Make sure Repartition is NOT checked
Click the Start button
Wait for Android to boot
Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you goofed)
NOTE: Sometimes the device does *not* boot into recovery mode. Just do the entire procedure again if this happens. If it still will not install, make sure that in Odin "Auto Reboot" is not checked. Then after flashing, pull the battery, and boot with VolUp+Home+Power button to boot into recovery manually. This will start the install process.
The Goods
twrp-klte.tar - flash with ODIN.
recovery-twrp-klte.img - for manual flashing.
Official TWRP can be found here.

PG, for some reason while flashing the CWM swipe, it fked up the platform.xml in /syste/etc/ . That caused Titanium Backup to stop function properly while doing a backup to external SD. Is it the recovery or its a problem with Kitkat ? I got the same problem with Note 3 ( Exynos and SnapDragon too ). The only way to fix was to do like this picture below :

umm I dont see that file in the system dump nor in cwm. So my guess is its a tibu issue.
not to mention, those look like app manifest permissions. And the Write permission overrides the read permission.

Yup maybe. On the Nexus 5 Kitkat, TB made restored apps force closed. But TB team fixed it. But as far as i remember, When i was testing your recovery ( pretty sure it was cwm swipe) after 2 or 3 flashes, problem arose. Ricky and me thought it was an SD card issue ( wrong permission, full sd card or something like that ) but it turned out the problem was the platform.xml . Not so sure as if TB made any change to platform.xml or not.

this was on a SM-G900H?
Did the recovery worked?
I just want it to completely wipe the phone before install new roms. so this bug doesnt matter to me if it worked

No its a F model. BTW, there is no Rom right now to install. ^^

according to a PM I just got, this doesnt work on G900H. By the description I was giving I think its the kernel and/or dtb. So I asked for a dump of the G900H stock recovery so I can extract the kernel & dtb from it.

Hello world !!!
I'm very happy to present you a project of a new kind : The RecoverX Project
The goal of this project is to gather ALL the recoveries for ALL android devices in ONE tool which install them on the devices. RecoverX is coded in C++ thanks to QtSDK and allow to install a recovery on more than 150 different devices !!!
You just have to select your phone and your recovery, to click "Install" and RecoverX does the rest, It's as simple as that
This program have been published on XDA News : Here and here
Behind this tool : over 120 - 180 hours of work, 4200 lines of code and +600 uses by day !!!
Here is the list of the recoveries which are available :
This program require different prerequesties, depending of your device
- Wether you need an unlocked bootloader to flash the recovery partition (and fastboot drivers on your PC)
- Wether you need root access and usb debugging activated (if busybox is not installed, RecoverX will ask you the permission to install it).
To boot in bootloader mode :
- Tape "reboot bootloader" in terminal emulator.
- Or shutdown your device, hold "Volume +", "Volume -" and press power button.
To boot in recovery mode (depending of the device) :
- Tape "reboot recovery" in terminal emulator.
- Or shutdown your device, enter in bootloader mode and select "Recovery".
- Or press back button when the device start.
- Or press volume button when the device start.
- Or tap the screen when the device start.
PS : On the first lauch, the download may fail, please, try to restart the program again.

Have you changed the file charger? On ICS the false charger causes that the phone is in a bootloop wenn its switched off and a usb-charger connected. It couldn´t charge the battery.
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27140107&postcount=1
Sorry for this Question but i have seen that your charger file has an old timestamp. I´m not able to test it because my phone is in service center.
@mangdasire : yes, it's work on locked bootloader.
@skuhn1978 : No problem, but this tool isn't for ICS because I didn't find a recovery compatible with ICS so I think the file "charger" works on 2.3.
But you seem to be informed about a recovery for ICS, can you give the the link ??? And did you know if my file "charger" works on Android 2.3 ???
Thanks for your usefull post !!!
Re-rooted my device and tried this new version, now everything was OK.
Big Thanks

I´m not a developer, i have learned such things by search google and try and error.
The recovery you use CWM 5.0.2.7 should work in ICS only thing is you must replace the charger-file. If charger works in ICS and GB must someone try.
I saw it that the recovery works in ICS because i installed the APP http://goo.gl/XurYt before it was updated for ICS, only change the charger file and it worked perfectly. Now the APP is updated to ICS, you can install it it will create a folder naa... on your SDCARD with the CWM recovery files.

I also want to do the same with my device, searching I found this:

Unfortunately at this Forum is no information about Tab 7.7 Plus. I have Galaxy Tab 7.7 Plus(SC-01E) and I'm not sure it is possible to change stock ROM to any alternative one.
There are not many differences between Tab 7.7 and Plus version (only difference is: CPU and DVB-T Tuner).
It is possible that ROM for 7.7 will work in 7.7 Plus?
Here's the link Gabirumaster mentioned:
http://yanoshi.hatenablog.jp/entry/2013/05/05/014140
I managed to root my phone, thanks to the links in this tread.
If someone has problems in rooting, write here.
However, it's so easy - you download 2 files and then run them one after another... Amazing.
By the way I also would like to know whether I can flash another ROM instead of pre-installed Japanese on this device
Anyone knows?

You can flash another ROM if you have a custom CWM, and for this case, I was failed to insert the custom CWM. Could you install a custom CWM to your 7.7 Plus? If yes, could you give me a guide? Thanks,,
Thanks. Don't feel like flashing CWM at the moment, though. Would like to keep stock rom. But might need CWM one day, cause the SC-01E is a MOST glitchy device I ever had (and I had 3 of them before). Do not recommend anyone to buy it. Really awful device by Samsung this time, fund something else if you can, save time and nerves...
dude u found stock rom for sc-01e..mine is not booting,need to flash stock rom but cant find anywhere
SC-01E
I HAVE the same issue and would like to enable the phone on sc-01e please can anyone guide me in the right direction..?

I can not say, because in Europe does not work, you have to try (I specifically left dmb.apk)
This firmware I had to pull out from Kies ..

Hi Bro.....
Thanks for your kind reply......
If you don't mind, could you let me know what is the difference between this newest version and the previous VH09? Is the newest one rooted? Are all of them come with CMW? Or I have to install it again?
Thanks......

This is a good budget device when compared to other devices from lead manufacturers like Samsung, Sony, LG or Huawei.
While searching on the internet I did find some Root & CWM installation methods.
I will be updating the relevant posts as and when needed.
You can look in the list below for what you want to do with your device.
ATTENTION!!! READ THIS BEFORE DOING ANYTHING
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Friend, there are two versions of this device in the market:
1. A706 (Chinese model)
2. A706_ROW (International Model)
The ROMs in this thread are only for the A706ROW model of this phone unless otherwise stated.
If you have the chinese model or another model A760 (which is a different model) then the ROMs in this thread are not for you.
Model A706 and A760 are two different models with almost same specifications. This DOES NOT mean that the ROMs of A706ROW are compatible with A760.
Please DO NOT confuse Lenovo A706 with Lenovo A760 as these are two different devices!!! Flash or experiment at your own risk!!!!
If you share a ROM link for any of the above devices, then please mention clearly the device for which the ROM can be used.
What to do with your Device ?

FOR NOOBS

Read the instructions (click on SHOW to read) before attempting anything from the list below!
First you need to have the Android SDK installed on your computer. Or atleast you need to have the adb & fastboot files available on your computer.
Here's a good post that tells you how to setup ADB and fastboot.
Here's a post that has a list of adb/shell commands for noobs.
Ok, once you are done with the setup of ADB & fastboot on your computer, then you can proceed with the below instructions.

IMPORTANT NOTE BEFORE FLASHING:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Recently, I have noticed that many people after buying the phone are flashing any firmware to their phones and most of the time without checking the phone versions and the OS versions. In the stock firmware post, I had mentioned that people having the Chinese version of the phone should NOT flash the ROW (international) firmware otherwise it would mess up their phone and network etc.
SOLUTION FOR SIM ERROR & DOWNGRADING TO CHINESE ROM
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, some of the people have already done such a mistake and for those people (who are having SIM or network problems and want to go back to chinese ROM, I am sticking this post by danyno1 to the OP:

hi
I've just installed the "A706ROW_1_S_2_001_0020_130821 MegaFull"" rom , and now i have no network coverage, it doesnt recognize my simcards
I live in Iran.
what should i do??
is there any way to unlock it ??
please help me with this situation , i'm in a hurry
------------------------------------------
after reading the whole topic posts, and testing all the methods , the problem is solved [thanks to mixbox360's posts.] i'm going to just copy and paste his 2 separated posts.
BEST soloutions for these 2 common problems :
#1 device doesnt recognize simcards
#2 being unable to downgrade to the chinees stock rom
soloution of the #1 problem :
how I fixed: Just Installed the QNeonModern 1.7 ROM... then I installed the update of a chinese ROM from bootdroid (I mean putt the update.qsb file un the sdfuse directory o my sd card, then power and vol+ to enter the menu and selected SD UPDATE)... thats all... I have again my chinese rom with signal for calls untill we discover how to make work the athk board in the ROW roms.
Hope to be helpfull!

soloution for #2 problem:
Ok trying again to put my chinese device in ROW rom with sim signal, and found a solution:
1:Flash via droidboot a chinese stock firmware I used the 130325
2:Rooted device with vroot and installed CWM Recovery via ADB
3:In the procedure to install custom rom Qneon one of the steps is to flash boot.img via fastboot... well I just didn´t do this step and flashed directly Qneon_1.7.1.zip via CWM
4: Did data/factory reset, cache reset and dalvik cache reset
5:Reboot system
An Ready! Finally got my chinese device in spanish and sim signal.

CWM Installation Instructions:
-------------------------------------------
Make sure you have all the drivers for your phone installed on your computer. Download for A706 from here. Some other Qualcomm drivers (not sure if required)
Make sure you have USB Debugging enabled, Install from Unknown Sources is enabled and device is detected in ADB run this command:
Code:
adb devices
Download the CWM Recovery for A706 from here.
Unzip the downloaded file to get a "recovery.img" recovery image file.
Press SHIFT key + Right mouse click in the folder where the file is located and select Open Command from Here.
Now, in the command prompt do the following:
a. Reboot into Bootloader mode. Use command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
b. Device will reboot and display Lenovo logo. (check if device is in bootloader mode by running command:
Code:
fastboot devices
. If you see a device connected then you have successfully rebooted into fastboot mode.
c. Now, run this command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(This will flash the CWM recovery image to the device).
d. Once successful, reboot the device using this command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
. Or, you can keep the power+vol up+ vol down buttons pressed to restart.​
If everything has gone well, this should get CWM installed on your device. Your device is still *not rooted*. Once you have installed CWM, please proceed to the ROOT instructions post to *root* your device.

A memory card is required.
Boot into Android normally.
Connect your phone to your PC/Laptop with a USB cable and when asked (or in USB connection settings), please select USB Mass storage mode to mount SD card.
On the root of the memory card, create a folder called "sdfuse".
Unzip the downloaded firmware, you will get a QSB file.
Copy the QSB file to the sdfuse folder that we created earlier on the root of SD card.
Note: Please make sure that your phone has atleast 60% power before attempting or beginning upgrade. Or keep charger connected during the process.
SD card upgrade process:
Long press VOL UP + POWER_KEY to enter the droidboot,
A menu will appear. Select the fourth option, SDUPDATE.
At the bottom of the screen, you can see the progress and status of the update
When you see the message "SDCARD UPDATE SUCCESS!!!", this means you successfully completed the upgrade process
Now, reboot your device and hopefully it should be updated.
That's it! If you guys have found any more firmware download links (even for different regions, build etc.) just share them with me along with details and I will add them to the list in this post.

scuderialoki, unfortunate that you got stuck. worked for me without any issues. i upped the same file that i used on mediafire. can you re-download the file and then check if the file is ok by extracting the zip using winrar or winzip? if it is ok then try flashing it again.

thanks

gr8techie thanks for the reply. i really appreciate it. just downloaded the flashable cwm however it's still the same bro. lemme tell you something though. i rooted the devices before using framaroot and everything is ok but i had to do a factory reset through the settings app in A706. i still see the superuser app in the system apps and i cant uninstall it. when i open the superuser app in the drawer it's giving me an error that the su binary is not installed and su cant install it.

ok, please tell me if you have CWM installed on your device? I believe it is not installed. if this is the case, then you need to flash CWM and then try installing the zip again.
if it is installed then, i believe the super su from previous rooting maybe causing the problem. check on Playstore for a method to unroot your device. or google it. then you need to root again. hope this solves your problem.
thanks
Hi bro thanks for the reply i attached a screenshot of my root validation. I used an app to identify that. And by the way my recovery is installed. I the super su app is killing it
New page for our devices :good:
I had rooted my Lenovo A706 before You made this page You are faster than me , bro :laugh::laugh:

Install rom, wipe and install rom again.
Reboot and see if it works for you. (can flash gapps later and super su if u need)

Successfully flash the Rom via TWRP 2.8.6.0
As mentioned in the OP
- quicksettings pulldown can only be pulled once.
- adjusting brightness slider do nothing
- torch is working
- system apps seems to load faster than cm12.
One thing that caught up my attention is that simcard is not recognized. Have to goto settings/about tablet and found out that baseband version is unknown. Shame cause I really think this rom is more fluid compare to cm12.
I was unable to test user's app due to simcard unavailability, hence 3G as well, as I heavily dependent on it.
Also noticed that 1st & 2nd boot is ok but on 3rd boot is only showing blank screen ( omni bootlogo not showing ) have to longpress power button a couple of times until omni bootscreen appears.. P6200 user here.
Thanks again to this ROM, pretty much stable , no soft reboots. Battery is good, Minor issues i could see.
Video playback is still an issue i believe, even in YouTube.
Thanks again
If this rom could see the daylight I will really love it. It's much better than cm12 . Aside the baseband issue in p6200 really would have preferred this .
Sent from my GT-P6200 using xda Forums PRO
Have just installed latest version 20150518. Installation process without any problem. System is running stable.:good:
But SIM-card is not found. Tried several times.
It's no problem with CM12.1 rom. So I'm back to CM12.1.

I don't have problem showing the baseband with or without a sim card. Don't know why some p6200 can't. It's the same modem chip and I'm using the same lib for both too.
Clean flash, Wait for a few minutes, etc.
Can anyone confirm that?
If really can't, in a terminal emulator type:
su (already rooted of course)
rild
see if any error message
here is the result:
WARNING: linker: libsec-ril.so has text relocations. This is wasting memory and prevents security hardening. Please fix.
rm: /data/misc/radio/dlink: permission denied
it is also showing invalid IMEI and unknown baseband version.

The first one is just a warning because of the only old blob we have.
The second line means the daemon is not start. I'll look into it but I need someone with a p6200 to test for me.

I think I found the reason. There is a file missing. View attachment libsecril-client.zip
unzip the above zip will get the file libsecril-client.so. Copy the file to /system/lib with a root browser (eg. ES FileExplorer) will do.
Hoping it work for t869 too. t869 owners are welcome to test too.
Good luck!
PS. Will include it in the next build

Was about to try that and alert you. Compared the lib folder for cm12.1 to that of omni and Realized the same missing libsecril-client.so and a couple of others. Looks like you got to it first. Anyway thinking of creating a flashable package for it. [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4]
OTG -Wifi???
@daniel_hk This may be stupid but i have to ask u.Does this kernel support USB Wifi with OTG?
Tried the lib files provided and a couple of others from cm12.1...................same old. Installed CM12.1 again and tried the rild check and got the same error as mentioned by PugeAko , though baseband is working with that rom.
Will be pulling the lib from stock MF1 rom for our dear p6200 soon, to see what comes of it.
Will post my findings soon.
Edit:
Checked radio directory in cm12.1 vrs OMni and some files are missing in Omni. Pulled that from cm12.1 but this constant black screen booting of Omni is making me frustrated at the moment. Too much black screen. Trying to see if I can get a boot.
Edit2:
Giving up. Don't know what it is but cannot endure this constant black screen any longer and time is not a luxury that I can afford now, its preventing me from helping figure out how to fix this baseband issue. Going back to the buggy cm12.1 rom. This rom is promising though.

Each USB Wifi probably have different chips which requires drives supplied by the manufacture. For it to work, it requires HAL drivers/firmwares too. Normally there is a CD or place to download. Window might have some driver for a few chips. Linux (Android) would be another story.
Normally, a kernel would only have the drivers for the on board chips.

Tried the lib files provided and a couple of others from cm12.1...................same old. Installed CM12.1 again and tried the rild check and got the same error as mentioned by PugeAko , though baseband is working with that rom.
Will be pulling the lib from stock MF1 rom for our dear p6200 soon, to see what comes of it.
Will post my findings soon.
Edit:
Checked radio directory in cm12.1 vrs OMni and some files are missing in Omni. Pulled that from cm12.1 but this constant black screen booting of Omni is making me frustrated at the moment. Too much black screen. Trying to see if I can get a boot.
Edit2:
Giving up. Don't know what it is but cannot endure this constant black screen any longer and time is not a luxury that I can afford now, its preventing me from helping figure out how to fix this baseband issue. Going back to the buggy cm12.1 rom. This rom is promising though.

cm12.1 is probably the wrong place to try. Omin for p6800 would be the wiser choice.
Anyway, I will try to get it work on the next build.

This method is based on Amazing Temp Root for MediaTek ARMv8 by diplomatic
Clever work that give MTK-soc devices a bootless root ( Root remains until reboot ). And lucky enough it works on our Nokia 5.1 Plus
So to begin :
-Grab diplomatic lastest mtk-su.zip in Amazing Temp Root for MediaTek ARMv8
- Follow instructions from Bootless root with Magisk and MTK-SU
#You can install Magisk Manager from the magisk 18.1 package, or any version below 7.1.2. Lastest version of MM doesn't work.
And your device should have root permission.
Hi stizzir,
Great post I've tried it and it works.
The only problem I had is that you can't use the latest version of Magisk Manager you
need to use the 7.0.0 version if not Magisk manager won't open after running the suboot.sh script.
I was wondering if with this we may be able to get full root and also turn the notch on and
off on devices that don't have the Full Bezel option in Display Settings or Developer Options.
Best regards,
voidRunner
I tried it as well and it works. Thanks for letting us know I've been checking these forums every week waiting for something like this. I also used Magisk 7.0.0 inside the 18.1 Magisk zip. Latest version didn't work.

I don't think full root can be acquired since there are still no Bootloader unlock solution yet, really looking for that. N-tool devs are working on it and they said X5 unlock is coming soon. But the bootless root work fine ! couldn't complain anything, it's basically a rooted device.
I tried Adaway it didn't work first time but worked second time, After that it would not work again no matter what I tried, says not enough space on partition. I checked host file when it worked and it had changed. Titanium backup worked, SD maid worked. Looks like I was wrong you can't edit or delete anything in system folder.

No problems, but again, all the credits go to diplomatic for his work, I'm just lucky enough to come across his thread.
Yes latest Magisk doesn't work, diplomatic had already mentioned it the original thread.

Mixplore root worked I deleted Google drive app from system/apps but took a few tries and reboots for it to be uninstalled, the folder always restores after reboot.

This is just a temporary solution so don't expect much out of it.
The doors will be open once the Bootloader can be unlock
Yes I know and I'm happy with it until we can unlock bootloader. Hopefully they can find a way soon but this will do until then.
Can someone else with this phone try Adaway to see if it can edit host file or delete a system app like Google drive (move the app file in system/apps replace it after tested) ? Just want to see if I'm only one that can't edit system folder.
Edit: It's okay I just read that you can't modify System/Vendor partition unless boot image modified. Will have to wait until bootloader unlocked.

Man i just can't wait for the Bootloader unlock. Nokia obviously doesn't want to offer a official unlock service ( at least for now ) since the android one line-up is meant to be as stock as possible. The company also promised to support new Android One devices in the next 3 years, so allowing Bootloader unlock will work agains their product course i think.
I have seen many attempts from the community however, and i have trust in them, many devices get unlocked by a unofficial method so.... Wait for the good news.
@stizzie I can't wait, hate having a device that I don't have full control. I've asked Nokia on there forums and signed a partition that is closed now, That's all I can do and just wait. I read somewhere that Nokia will allow it soon but who knows how long. Hopefully someone finds another way soon.
Doing this won't kill OTA, right?

Just follow instructions in the provided links, you should have root permission. Applications working or not really depends on your device so it won't hurt if you try it yourself.
Device is Nokia 5.1 plus?
And sir can u tell me where I have to paste mku-su file? In the pc
I got OTA update today while this thing was running so no OTA issues.
Just 2 warnings:
1) Don't write even a single byte to system partition or boot partition.
2) Don't expect Netflix etc to work since it breaks CTS profile and basic integrity. Banking apps etc will whine for rightful reasons too.

It doesn't let you do anything to system or boot partition. I tried editing and deleting and doesn't work. Have to wait until bootloader unlocked.

If you (by chance) are able to write a single byte to system or boot partition on this dm-Verity enabled device, it won't boot and will need service center.
That changes if bootloader can be unlocked of course.

Okay thanks for the info. Guess I was lucky that you can't do anything. I tired to delete a few pre installed apps and edit the host file. Looks like this is as good as it gets until we can unlock bootloader.
