Hello two days back, I rooted my phone(Lenovo k3 note) with hope to install cyanogenmod on it. :crying:! its not for mine.
I used Lenovo k3 note manager to root it, and it also installed TWRP recovery.
Today I came to know its about to get Android Marshmallow update next month. Can I update it when its available?
Thanks

Hi
You need to be on the stock recovery to get an ota update. If you try to update now it won't work so you now need to flash your stock firmware before you do it.

Hi guys,
so I bought my Lenovo A820 rooted with a stock S135 ROM. An update came through saying it needed to be updated to S149, and I stupidly updated it through the system without checking first or creating a backup of my current ROM. Now my phone has loads of Chinese apps installed, I cannot use the play store as it says "no connection" and root checker says there are no SuperSU binaries installed.
My problem is that I was hoping to install the Etotalk MOD ROM which they put on their website for sale a few days ago. I should be receiving the ROM from them on Monday, however I cannot install it if my phone is not rooted.
So basically, is there any way I can re root my phone, downgrade it back to S135 so I can install CWM recovery, and then the Etotalk ROM? Any help of suggestions any of you can give me on this would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance!

Can you check language settings for this model, is there Turkish language. If yes can you take and share screen shot.
Nope not showing turkish.. maybe u can download it?
Still waiting for mine to arrive but couldn't you install new recovery and flash latest super su to get root?
I have the N915G and this method worked fine for me

when the device is rooted do I still get the over the air updates ?
mine isn't rooted yet because I usually wait a couple of weeks to see if there is no hardware problem (warranty)
and i wait for the Lollipop update, which should arrive in February, I hope...

Nope...
I know 100% for fact that the phone is Spark enabled. I did a stock update to Lollipop once and had great Spark signal on my device. I hate Lollipop and my apps that require root access do not function on Lollipop.
I am wondering what I need to do in order to access Spark LTE again. I am using a 4.4.4 stock rom that is rooted via TWRP and Super SU. I don't recall exact versions and such as I have been using the same stock rom for a year now.
I recently retried 5.0/5.1 and my rooted apps still have issues, so I do not want to use Lollipop.
Is there a modem file I need to change to be able to get Sprint Spark? I had it before also on 4.4 when the phone was 100% stock and I did the official update to 4.4 from 4.2 or 4.3(been a year).
The phone was bought out, no longer under warranty as of November, and Knox already tripped so I don't care about any of that. The phone was manufactured Sept/Oct 2014 if that helps.
Any suggestions?

i dont know specifically how to fix your issue, but im betting if you look in your devices general forum, you will find a thread with all the available modems. you may have to try a couple until you figure out which one is correct for your version, if its not noted.
I have rooted and unlocked my bootloader in asus zenfone 2 laser Z00ld and tried to install a custom rom. But the rom didnt install so i had to install official stock lollipop 5.0.2 rom.
Now i am having problem with this rom. Hangs a lot. Battery drains too fast. Sometimes the front speaker gets activated while playing music.
So now I want to revert back to the factory rom that i got at first.
1. Is it possible to get back to the official rom????
2. is it possible to get the official software updates from company after relocking the bootloader and unrooting the fone???
I am not a noob. But i am just scared of doing the unrooting process as already i hardbricked an yureka plus which was just 2 days old.
So anyone please help me with the solutions.. :crying::crying:

Greetings and welcome to assist. I'm not sure where you would get the original rom from but yes you should be able to return to it and once you are unrooted you should be able to take ota's
Good luck
