Root Lenovo S8 A7600 / A7600M Golden Warrior

Note: This Tutorial is for the Lenovo S8 A7600(M) MOBILE Only! Theres a Tablet named the same, dont get confused.
Warning: Your Warranty is void. I am not responsible for any kind of bricks or software failure! Only for MTK6752 ! And not for the same Numbered Tablet. this guide is for the Phone.
The Lenovo S8 7600 Golden Warrior is a very nice phone with some quite good specs. Only cons I could find was that it has none of community and tons of bloatware which is unremovable. Yet!
Lets root it, Guys.
You Need:
Model A7600 Only:
1.The Lenovo Firmware including Chinese TWRP which is provided here by me:
(Thats the only one i could find. If anyone is Brave enough to make an English Version and wants to upload it for this thread fell free to do it.)
Firmware:

TWRP Recovery(Chinese):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bzt5QqUHjbg3aXRTMkFSczZoZWM/view?usp=sharing
2.SP Flash Tools. This will be Needed for flashing the Sock Rom Incl. Recovery. Version 5.13xxxx Minimum Requied.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/zx5m9mp3x5p413h/SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1452.00.zip
3. The Meadiatek Driver(Explains itself i think)
http://d-h.st/1PN
4. The SuperSU.ZIP (Thanks Chainfire, we love you)
https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
5.(optional) If you want to use the Google Apps i recommend Downloading the GApps Mini for 5.0 from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/gapps-mini-t3089612
Now Lets get Started:
1. Unzip the Driver Package and Run the Exe. After Installation, restart you Computer. If using Windows 8, disable Signaure Driver Enforcement.
2. Turn Off you device. Open the SP Flash Tools Folder and run Flash_tool.exe as Administrator.
3. Now Unzip the VibeUI Firmware Package. In SP Flashtools klick on Scatter Load. Navigate to the VibeUI Folder and choose the MT6752_Android_scatter.txt.
Edt: Some People Including me had Problems with the Scatter File. However, If getting errors, try creating your own scatter file referring this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2151251
4. Check if every Downloadfile exept the System is Checked, else you will get an error.
5.IMPORTANT: Go to settings, Download and CHECK the DA DL All with Checksum.
6. Klick on Download.
7. NOW the Tricky Part. Remove the Battery. Insert it again. Now leave the Phone Turned off and plug the USB Cable in, but holding the Volume UP button.
8. If you get a Red Bar and a Yellow followed by some grey in SP Flash tools you have done it right. If the Flash was successfully, you will get a green tick mark as passed.
9. Now unplug USB and take the battery out and pop it in again. Boot the Phone. Dont get shocked if it doesn't boot up fast, it usually takes about 6-8 Minutes. Be Patient!
10. If the Phone Boots up successfully, configure it and Connect it as a MTP Device on the Computer.
11. Now Copy the GApps.zip and the SuperSu.Zip to the Root of the Phone Memory.
12. Boot into Recovery (Holding VOL UP AND DOWN while turning the Phone on) and flash the two Zips. Its in Chinese but you will
only need to flash it once. Flash Zip is the Upper Left Button. Choose your GappsZip and use the Back Button to get to the main Screen. Now flash the SuperSA.zip.
13.Reboot. If you dont know how to just take off the battery ( Its quite risky so better try using the Buttons. The Layout is the same as in the English Version)
Finished!Now your Device is Rooted and got the Gapps on it. Download Titanium Backup and remove the Chinese Crap Bloatware. You are now the Master of your Device. I would be really happy about Donations, since It was very Hard to get Hands on these Roms and Recoverys.
INFO: Some People Complained about the lost IMEI, Thank you Soyer88 for the fix! Sorry that I was away for too long, I got my finals.
Soyer88 said:
For those of you who lost the IMEI address on this phone, or ANY other, here is simple guide witch solved my problem:
1. Download this http://www.4shared.com/file/aNRAdrvgba/sn_gen.html , or search sn_gen.exe (Dont worry, the program is not translated that isn't a problem)
2. In the ??IMEI 1 field write your original imei address (behind the battery)
3. Click on ??MP0B_001?? - It will create a file on your desktop named MP0B_001.
4. Copy the file in your phone, Install Root Explorer, send the file in data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/ and change the permission of the file (check all boxes)
5. Restart the phone.
Thats it ! This phone is very tricky to flash (or recover) , because of the chipset.. its very rare
I had a lot of problems to fix it, You have to use the right version of Sp flash tool !!!
Here is a russian forum with ALL the custom ROM's (including the official chinese) and support for this phone - http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=657464 it helped me a lot!

Hey
Could someone tell me what to do? I flashed a rom and recovery via Sp Tool (not from this guide) on my S8 A7600. It was a custom rom with removed bloatware I found on a Russian site (google translate).
Now I find that my baseband is unknown and no IMEI's either. I didn't notice this in the beginning though, I did root the phone first and cleaned up even further with Titanium Backup, including the default phone and
contact apps.
Don't know if this could have had an impact or not, but my impression is that it has to do with modem driver, which might be a different one (it seems the custom rom was built from chinese rom). Both scatter files (rom and recovery) does not seem to touch the nvram area, although this mtk flashing stuff is completely new to me.
Have any tips? This chipset is new for IMEI repair, so is unsupported from what I gather.

I flashed another rom I found and the IMEI came back, hurray :laugh:
Good to know its not some permanent lame fault the mtk engineers would have missed (unlikely). Well now back to customizing romz, the default lenovo rom is far from what I consider usable.

Actually I think I said that wrong. I am now using this rom: VIBEUI_V2.5_ _USR_ST1524_5.1460.1_1506111858_MP6V3_CU_CN_otafull
This is the latest official stock rom directly from Lenovo. I was referring to one of the rom's that's flashed by those shabby vendors, full of adware, malware and viruses.
I was not aware of this situation as this is my first china phone.
To Op: No I did not use your Rom. I've tried a few others and the *Real* stock ota rom from lenovo was the best for me, also the latest stable build. I found it here btw: lenovo-forums.ru(can't post full link)
Also I'm looking for this: A7600_TWRP2.8.7.0_2015-07-18.7z <--- This is the only recovery I've found that has english language. It was posted on 4pda.ru but link is down. Also seen it on those chinese sites, but requires account to download.

My Suggestion would be: Download and try my Rom and Recovery. Then download SuperSu/.Zip and try to flash it via Chinese TWRP which i am providing. you can locate the buttons from any other TWRP, even from other phones. If done, you could et root uininstaller and remove the crappy bloatware like i did. then install gapps

I already have chinese TWRP, and I'm rooted. The rom I'm using also does not have any insidious bloatware, except a few chinese apps that don't even require root to remove. Besides I seem to remember the system.img file in your rom was corrupt, tried to download several times.
Just saw this at 4pda.ru:
Port of K3 Note VIBE 2.8 1530 A7600 5.1】 【07/15/25
Download: yadi.sk/d/ULLundAAi5dk6

Will upload the File again, sorry to hear that.

where do you download the latest firmware?this phone doesn t have ota?no need to use flash tool if it s the case..you can root it easily with an apk
so i don t understand you manip

Mine was really hard to root, none of Kinroot or any other tool/app worked.

so could you say use what did you use for rooting it?
i just to order one so i would like to erase all chinese apk
are you happy with this phone?

Like I said, the Rom provided here is Pre Rooted and has TWRP included. With twrp you can root any rom, but seems like the file is corrupt so ill have to upload it again as soon as i get home

but the soc is not the same describe in the first page..do you have the same?

New full firmware package available: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5Lqys5p5m_YU2xxZ3d4T0V5WjA
VIBEUI_V2.5_1532_5.1797.1_ST_A7600_CU
I got this as ota update yesterday, on official lenovo rom. Btw, this needs to be flashed with stock recovery (rename file as "update.zip")
Actually, you can flash it with TWRP/custom recovery, just tried it
Also, you should flash Gapps after the initial boot and setup, or it may cause problems.
Here is also the TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery with English language: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5Lqys5p5m_YR0VfSXFPZ0RIZEk
The new firmware is good. So far I've noticed it has solved a big bug with launcher. Previously I could not use widgets with 3rd party launcher (settings fc), now I can.
The launcher bug is still present, but not with Google Now Launcher when flashed with gapps.
PS: Is it ok for me to post this here? Perhaps better to make new thread?

Aosp rom
I found what seems to be a recent AOSP based rom: A7600-ZP-15.08.06.zip
Though only so far seen it on Chinese sites, like this: http://pan.baidu.com/wap/link?uk=1393301215&shareid=1110457716&third=0
Don't think I will bother getting account for that, but just letting you know.

Man thank you! If you could download this and pack it in one zip, upload it on your google drive and test it again we could privide yours! Because i sold mine so i cajt test it. Else im still ready to upload it

Hello to all.
I have this phone for a little longer than two years, the warranty has expired and now it's very slow and the battery will not last much longer.
I wanted to ask you if you can advise me the best rom for my phone, light and fast.
--- now i have Android 7.0 G920FXXU5EQCD ---
I would also like to ask if there is a way to keep all whatsapp chats, even archived ones.

First of all, you must root your phone!
So:
1. Install Odin http://odindownload.com/download/Odin3_v3.10.6.zip
2. Install modded recovery / root https://dl.twrp.me/zeroflte/twrp-3.1.1-0-zeroflte.img.tar
2.1 See video https://youtu.be/p8uM3O85bJo
3. Download and install with recovery, in my opinion, SamStock ROM or Global Elite ROM v4

Thanks for the guidance dinamo1975. I followed these steps and have successfully rooted my SM-G920F using Odin/Twrp. Is there a modified ROM available for this phone (S6) based on LineageOS? If I've understood correctly these 2 ROMs are debloated stock ROMs. I've looked but couldn't find anything. Maybe there is no such thing?

Hey guys
i have installed ODIN and downloaded latest TWRP, but now? from video i don't understand what to do.. in RAR twrp folder there is an ISO image..

I used the you tube guide provided by usmanalitoo called "How to Root Samsung Galaxy S6/S6 Edge/S6 Edge Plus Nougat 7.0 Easily!"
Search for it. This message board prevents me from posting the URL because I am a "New User".
It has much more detail. It's a bit fast so I had to watch some sections several times to see what he was doing.
Make sure you've downloaded the latest version of Odin and Twrp. He shows how this is done.
He uses a file called Nougat_Root_SuperSu_No_kernel_included.zip which he downloads from MediaFire.
You have to read the URL for this download from the screen shot. It's a bit awkward. You end up with a fully
rooted phone with Twrp as the active recovery software so you are all set to install custom ROMs quite
easily. I should warn you that there is a marked shortage of ROMs for the S6, plenty for the S5 and for the
S7. For the S6 there seem to be very few. Why? I have no idea.
At 3.41 in the video, the first time he boots the phone into Twrp recovery mode I had problems. It did
not happen as smoothly as it does in the video. I had to reboot the phone MANY times and repeatedly
use the VOL-UP+POWER+HOME key combination before the phone reluctantly booted into Twrp.
You can see from the comments under the video that many people had the same issue. But it does
rectify itself eventually.
I may be able to help if you get stuck. Good luck.

Samsung A03s

Guys is there any custom android 12 rom available for A03s if yes inform me thanks

None for the moment , but it is a new device , give it a few months , in the meantime you can try changing your launcher and some other system apps to have a closer to stock android feel

Its my first samsung phone and i hate it ...

I had the same feeling when I had to use a J2 prime a couple of years ago , just try to remember (as I had to often do) that it is a basic phone designed for someone that just want to call and send texts , its not a really powerful device , but if you can manage your expectations and debloated with adb and customize it a bit wich a launcher an Icon pack and such , you can make it more enjoyable to use

How to make OEM Unlocking appear in Developer Options. Running android 11.

If ur doing it on Samsung A03s,then do this...
1- Turn off the phone
2- press vol up and down both buttons and plug in the cable, hold the button for few seconds after pluggin in cable.
3- After the Fastboot screen is shown ...., Hold the Volume up button for 7 seconds and then again press Vol up button on next screen.
4- your Oem is unlocked now the option in the developer options will be permanently on.

How do I bypass Frp on on A03s?

Fake/Clone p40 pro

Hi folks!
Recently I've bought a p40 pro clone that is driving me crazy.
I can't barely use it as all the tweaks to make it look like a better phone are provoking some apps to fail. The about phone screen says that is a p40pro (without spaces), the CPU is a MT6799 when in reality is a MT6580, 12Gb of RAM but is 1Gb, Android 10.1 but it's 5.1, hahaha, it can't be more fake, but no regrets, I have what I've paid for!!!.
My initial idea with this crappy thing was to upgrade the android version to 6.x, but everything is pretty tough, at least with my little knowledge in custom roms, kernel etc.
First of all I'm not able to install TWRP on it. I can't find or make a working version:
I thought that this model was pretty similar and I tried with the TWRP included on the thread about a p40pro+, but the touchscreen after entering recovery was somehow inverted and seemed laggy: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/alps-clone-p40-pro-wish-com.4211591/
With the one at https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unknown-china-device-p40-pro.4200617/post-85249887 it don't work too.
Finally I came to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ediatek-mt67xx-64bit-new-32bit-phone.3681861/ and I managed to make a custom TWRP which initially seemed to work (the touchscreen was fine) but the sd card data was unavailable, I was like missing but if I reboot the mobile it properly boot. Maybe because I choose an incompatible model to port from.
So, I'm running out of ideas, please can someone give me a hand on that super ultra fake thing?
Here is the full rom dump, preloader and recovery:
https://mega.nz/file/2M80XY7C#0kw7qVQ5498tDrt4UdUNq49lANIO3RvS73ct6DoCPO0
I'll really appreciate any suggestion on getting a new rom for this phone, and obviously how to get twrp on it, root, and if possible a rom which makes this fakephone at least useable.
Zillions of thanks in advance!!! Take care!

Finally I came to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ediatek-mt67xx-64bit-new-32bit-phone.3681861/ and I managed to make a custom TWRP which initially seemed to work (the touchscreen was fine) but the sd card data was unavailable, I was like missing but if I reboot the mobile it properly boot. Maybe because I choose an incompatible model to port from.
So, I'm running out of ideas, please can someone give me a hand on that super ultra fake thing?
Here is the full rom dump, preloader and recovery:

I'll really appreciate any suggestion on getting a new rom for this phone, and obviously how to get twrp on it, root, and if possible a rom which makes this fakephone at least useable.
Zillions of thanks in advance!!! Take care!

Hi @kirichen, sorry for being so late.
Finally I managed to use the lineageos rom following your instructions and files.
It works like a charm, the overall experience with this crappy mobile is way better than using the stock rom.
Thank you a lot!

I was also buyed on Aliexpress china fake device similar yours - (Alps) S22 ultra 1Tb but I think it have only 1GbRom and 12GbRam.
I don't know what to do with this crap.
Is here on XDA any instructions?

I want to install android 8 (Oreo) Go edition onto my fake Android 11 Chinese tablet (Its actually Android 5.1). Anyone kind enough to teach me how.

Disclaimer this is my first time posting here so pls pardon me I don't know how to post and I promise to edit this post if there is something wrong.
Information about device is in the attached pictures.
What I am Requesting:
Can someone teach me how to install Android 8(Oreo) Go Edition on my tablet please.
Why am I asking help and not researching and do it myself:
Because it is a unknown brand so I dont have any references and I very scared of bricking the device I spent my college savings on.
Back Story:
Bought a cheap tablet from China which turned out to be fake in many ways than one. Its running on android 5.1. It has a ton of bloatware just to keep up the scam of being android 11. Instead of going through the hassle of returning product I decided to just make it better and install Android 8(Oreo) Go Edition to get some new features and remove all the bloatware while I am at it.
What I know about the device:
(Additional information, Not including IMEI, is in the attached pictures.)
It uses a octa core MT6592 32 bit CPU Android 5.1
Why Oreo Go:
Go is a stripped down version of android and since the tablet is kinda *JUNK* I figured its perfect to use Go edition on it.
Why Oreo, because I couldn't find a 32 bit version of android 9 to 12 Go. I assume bit version is important
What is the source of the Android Oreo Go rom:
Its the Wiko Y50, because it seemed close enough in specs and I was able to download the .pac file and extracted the boot.img file from it.

In my opinion, it is a waste of time and health for such an experiment. You must accept the failure of buying a fake device. This will be your experience for the future.

I don't mind wasting my time. I am in college learning technical skills are useful. I like to learn the skill for the future. And I honestly almost had this covered using tutorials but I got stuck at finding my original stock rom and fastboot loader rom for this specific device.

Can I use this?
How to Go Back to Stock Android From a Custom ROM: 3 Ways
Want to remove a custom ROM and get your Android phone back to its original state? This is the easiest way to get your phone back to stock.
www.makeuseof.com
I got the stock rom of the Wiko Y50 which is the Wiko Y50's boot.img file, couldnt I simply switch out my original stock rom from this instruction to that of the Wiko Y50's?
Im not trying to download a non custom firmware like lineage so wouldnt it just work if I used the method of flashing stock rom when the firmware I want to to install is a stock rom of another phone?

First you should:
1. make root (if possible) to make a full backup of all partitions and learn about partition organization.
2. learn how to restore the system from the backup done.

Thanks used your advice. Heres an update
I was able to root using kingroot it was a pain looking for the real legit one.
next followed this vid to install twrp
it ruined my recovery mode. well the tablet still works but recovery is dead.
I followed it because the title mentioned same kernel and same cpu but it was a scam. the part where he was using twrp was fake...
well regardless tablet is rooted and still works just need to find a way to repair recovery mode.
next i downloaded official twrp recovery from playstore. saving boot keeps failing any advice?
I was thinking of using the recovery.img of the symphony h300.
because same cpu, kernel, and android version.
i found a source here

Somewhere on the XDA forum I saw a thread about how to make TWRP yourself based on your own boot.img.
Other than that, checking if TWRP is working is done via adb. Your screen may show the result of not working properly in graphics mode.
[GUIDE]Porting TWRP without source
Yes, I know XDA is filled with such guides. But you can only port a TWRP if you implement parts of all the guides. This guide is a summation of all those guides. NOTE: I would be using AIK-Linux in this tutorial, since I don't recommend Windows...
