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.)

TWRP Recovery(Chinese):

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

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

Need help rooting Sky Devices Elite Octa 5.5 (MT6753)

So I got this cheap cell phone on Ebay for $50 (Sky Devices Elite Octa 5.5 with MT6753). It has great specs for that price. However, I'm now paying for it as I can't root the device.
I've tried one click tools but none of them worked. So now I'm asking the XDA community hoping that I can get some pointers.
I've found various tutorials online but they've all come to a dead end. If you find one that you think I should try, please let me know and I'll check it out.
I tried contacting the OEM but they were d-bags and refused to provide stock ROM or scatter file. Which makes me want to root it even more!
The furthest I got was I can dump about 2 GB from the device's memory to a raw file on my PC using SPF (Smart Phone Flash) Tool. One of the tutorials I found is here:
https://cmflare4guides.wordpress.com/2016/08/25/how-to-create-spft-rom-dump/
The Instructions section works but the Continuation section does not. In MTK Droid Root, the button "To process file ROM_ from FlashTool" is disabled and I can't click it.
Any ideas?
I can unlock the boot loader.
I think what I need to do is:
- "extract" the ROM that I downloaded via SPF Tools into various partitions (no idea how though)
- mount the partitions as a loop back device in Linux
- modify some file that will disable permissions on the device (allowing me to install SuperSU)
- "package" the modifications back to some ROM image
- upload the image to the device
However, I currently can't figure out what to do with the ROM_FULL that I downloaded from the device using SPF Tools.

Need Sky devices Elite 5.5 0cta (MT6753) Flash file(ROM)
Ey mate!,,hope you're doing good.. lucky I finally found your post over here. I kinda bricked that same phone when I been tryna flash a custom rom on it.
I managed to root it, had to use Miracle box( Cracked) ....side-loaded TWRP recovery via fast boot (felt like a champ:victory
but then things got wacky the moment I flashed a custom rom and now it can't even boot into any mode ,..almost scanned the whole web for its firmware but dang!, couldn't find it anywhere. If u still have that Sky Elite 5.5 Octa thing.. or the ROM,please do help a brother man, I am so in need of it...

Lenovo s5 (k520) ZUI 3.7.177 ST Got root anyone?

Just got a new Lenovo s5 (k520 running ZUI 3.7.177 ST) but can't root it (tried KingRoot and Root Genius so far).
It has a nasty little OS (ZUI 3.7) which keeps killing apps it doesn't like. It took me two days to find an adblocker which would work (AdClear) after trying Dns66, Blokada and a couple of others which I can't recall. It's tightly locked down.
* Anyway, my question is... Has anyone had any luck with rooting this phone or OS?
* Or, has anyone any suggestions for apps or rooting options which might be more successful?
If there's any other people out there with this phone, I would seriously consider chipping in to buy one for a dev to work with... give me a yell if you're interested.
Cheers,
Specs:
OS ZUI 3.7 (based on Android O)
CPU Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 2.0GHz Octa core
ROM 64GB
RAM 4GB
Edit: Hmmm, I was hoping that the latest Magisk beta (16.6) might help, but no luck. It does seem to get further along but fails with an 'unable to find boot image' message (my apologies for not being able to quote that accurately). Nothing seems able to find that .img. Can't back it up either as no app can find it. Yes, I need to brush up my adb skills ...my last effort ended in an error reporting lack of appropriate key, as I recall (sorry, have a bit of a flu just now). Anyway, has anyone else been able to look at this phone? Anyone have any ideas (or just thoughts) about what I can do here?
Thanks.

Just to update.... I have tried every simple rooting option I can find -with no luck.
I have found one reference to installing twrp & rooting this phone, but I'm unsure how legit it is ...it just looks a little like its put together by a script; but maybe they just copy/paste a lot when writing tutes? (I have written to them but have had no response from them in a week). The tutorial makes reference to a dev/group in China successfully installing twrp, but only on a Chinese release, not international.
Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone knows of the group or people referenced at
http://tutoraplikasi.com/cara-root-lenovo-s5/
or if anyone might have an idea of the dev(s) in China working on twrp & lenovo?
Just a shot in the dark, really, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
Cheers.

OK, looks like time for some more serious reading and brushing up of old, much neglected skilz... I will probably close this thread and open another ( if there's no objections) in the xda twrp forum.
If anyone is interested, I'm looking to compile twrp for this device with a view to flashing magisk. Hopefully, it will work. Seems that adb & unlocking the bootloader is the only way I'm going to get to actually see the partitions holding the IMG files etc. (Though I do have one or two ideas about escalating privileges/permissions, but that's a whole other bunch of research -and time which is always short.)
Anyway, if you have an interest in rooting this phone have a look for a thread under twrp Q&A.
Cheers.

Seems like it was just a matter of waiting... XN Logos has come up with a solution, it appears --
https://www.stupdroid.com/2018/07/root-twrp-lenovo-k520.html?m=1
At least I managed some in depth reading in the meantime. I'll report back on success of the procedure.

Hi I have also a Lenovo s5. I hated zui 3.7 too and I succeded in installing Lineage OS 15.1 by phh using only fastboot mode... I tried rooting It but unsuccessfully. Now I want twrp and if it would be possible even root. Did you succeed with XN Logos?

Haven't actually tried yet. After all that looking for a root solution I now have been too busy. Will probably do it this Wednesday. I'll keep you posted. Did lineage work well? Any bugs or other issues? ZUI is a dog.

Yeah everything is okay... In the previous updates there was a problem with the audio in ear but now is solved. The only thing that is a little (but not dramatically) worse is battery life because in zui the fact that the os kills every app in background makes the battery last longer.

Hey guys, I know it is no the perfect thread for this yet this phone almost doesn't exist anywhere on the internet. I have the same issue with apps closing as you do. I wanted to install Lineage OS yet as there is no official release for lenovo S5. I would really appreciate some guidance on which release would I install and how. Would it be via the twrp? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I'm a lucky owner of this beautifull beast, the Lenovo S5 K520, but with the horfull ZUI3.7. I always have been using Cyanogen and after lineage OS.
It did not luck for me to install it on the Lenovo S5.
I manage to install TWRP-3.2.2-0713 with the help of the S-Droid toolkit for Lenovo S5.
From there, I did try every rom from phh on this page : https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development/lineage-phh-treble-t3767690
but the best I did get is the first logo of lineage OS going on and never stop for hours. I also did try AOSP treble Rom from this site : https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659, but there I'm getting the Android text changing of ligth theme, but bothing more.
Could you please tell us the procedure and the version of the software you are using so that you are able to use Lineage OS on a Lenovo S5 K520?
Thanks a lot.

Hi i did in this way...
1)fastboot -w
2)fastboot erase modemst1
3)fastboot erase modemst2
4) fastboot erase system
5) fastboot erase boot
6) fastboot erase recovery
7) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8) fastboot flash boot boot.img
9) fastboot flash system {systemname}.img
The only thing you should do firstly is download the firmware from a video in YouTube whose name is like "ROM Lenovo s5" or something like that and extract the firmware in order to have both boot.img and recovery.img. Hope I could help
P.s. I used phh lineage latest build

Lenovo S5 global version stock rom
Hi everybody!
I was wondering if any of you have a copy of the original ZUI 3.7 non-Chinese stock firmware. I had trouble with my phone and contacted the customer service. Unfortunately, they've sent me the Chinese version (K520_CN_OPEN_USER_Q00011.0_O_ZUI_3.7.355_ST_180412_qpst) and now my phone is almost unusable as the rom only contains crappy Chinese stuff... :crying:
All apps are Chinese and it contains no GApps... I cannot even restore previously save config.
Please help me and send me a backup or the original non-Chinese firmware.
Thank you very much

I didn't even know the existence of an original firmware for non Chinese phones indeed when I bought it it came with a horrible chinese firmware with few translations. Did you find it? Because I want to try it too. If you didn't find it I'm also going to look for it

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?

Basic Phone? Actually the A03 is a really good device.

If doesn't work say, I gonna try to help

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.

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...
