if u are worry about the warranty, there's no need to worry, once u reset the phone it will back to stock condition without root if u need to claim warranty from sc

As I know there will be a log showing how many times you've rooted the phone is save in the phone right?
So will resetting the phone clear that log also?

There are few bugs in the software of the phone:

1. You can't save a phone number by highlighting and save from the popup menu. You can key in the name but when you hit save nothing will happen. The only way to save the number is to go to contacts, create new contact and paste the number there, then you can hit save. This is super frustrating especially when you want to be quick.

2. You can't share pictures from supergallery to wechat moments. You have to go to wechat>moments>that camera button on top right and choose photo(this is soooooo like iOS. tongue.gif Lenovo wants to copy iOS? Later Apple sue them how? tongue.gif). From gallery to FB messenger, messages, whatsapp, wechat messages, works fine. Only wechat moments.

3. Notifications LED won't respond to 3rd party apps.  doh.gif

4. Will add up later if I can find more bugs.
What? What?

that is notification widget, part of status bar, and status bar is part of SystemUI. you can try change ur SystemUI with same (other p780) systemui. beware, this is system file, do it with ur own risk biggrin.gif

Fixed it, just use CWM or Link2SD clear Davlik Cache and reboot *takes sometime to boot.

My LED Notification lights (near the earpiece) is not blinking even I've already enable in the setting. However, the LED notification (near the earpiece) is always shown up in green color and won't blink for notification.
Is't normal? The light will only change to orange color when charging icon_question.gif icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

By default, it won't blink, it'll stay on. That's the case with mine. Got it to blink using third party apps, but can't change colour.

Third party apps? U meant apps like Whatsapp, Facebook, Messenger, and etc?smile.gif

I can't remember which one, It's either Lightflow or LED manager something. Nope, the LED won't respond with the settings in whatsapp, fb messenger etc.

I see. I've tried with Light Manager just now and it's the same, not blinking at all.hmm.. I am wondering is't smtg wrong with the phone now before I start rooting.

Btw, I've saw ppl saying just root with the One Click Root (which i'm about to do later) and press the Red Button at the back case there. But that red button is just like restarting your phone in case the phone hang, so how we actually reset back to the original ROM? I'm still looking way to backup the Ori Rom before I do rooting, any idea?smile.gif

Rooting won't change ur launcher GUI - if that what concerns u. If only gives u access to root so u may do things otherwise not possible w/o it.

One click root as 'zerohunter' guide earlier was what I used and it really easy and most important it works! U will get rooted in no time and install ur TB to restore our apps / data.

My main goal to root is get TB other than few nicks rooting features.

Just an advice.. Once root flash TWRP recovery and do nandroid backup and u r practically safe to move fwd.
Mike, i know CWM got issues but TWRP recovery works perfectly. Im on twrp and able to nandroid and even partition w/o sweat. It even came with SuperSU - with One Click UnRoot! option. This not tested but my finger itching wanting to press it.. duno why?

Now I believe gave enuf reason 4 u to proceed rooting ur phone. W/o root access, ur phone considered not fully utilized lar.. Let me know if u need more convincing.. Ha.ha.

FYI, just like my prev A830, my daughter also use this phone to play games etc. So she needed her games data backup and restored. Now she really have a hard time draining juice from this phone as compared A830.. Ha.ha..

I'm just curious, so we shall root flash with TWRP recovery then only able to do ROM backup right? Then only do the One Click Root and Repartition, correct?smile.gif

One Click Root > Flash TWRP via Mobileuncle > Do backup via TWRP > RePart
Follow guide by ZeroHunter (OneClickRoot) and Garytanyh (RePart). They posted these guide on early page 10-15 of this thread.
TWRP search for Life v05 (can't remember but sure u find asking pakcik Google..)

Just an advice.. Don't simply flash any ROM w/o 1st reading thoroughly. Take time knowing what I'll be flashing. Rush² and u might end up like me.. Ha.ha.  laugh.gif

Thanks for ur infor MatShadow! I don't plan to flash ROM but my main purpose to root is to repartition due to the internal storage limitation and multiple whatsapp account:)

Anyway, I'm actually reading frm page 1 till last but I got abit lost when talking about backing up ROM..haha..And I also came across ur posts about tangan itchy..jgn itchy itchy d:p

I think i shall start rooting it now..hehe

Anyone knows how to change the default Notification Tone (not Ringtone or Message tones)? I've search the settings but couldn't find where the setting for Notification Tone.

I would love to know about this too, and also, have they fixed the Contacts Manager bug(can't add contact after keying the number, can only add after making a miss call). Thanks
*
Can't add contact after keying in the number? I have no issue with that, after you key-in the number three options will shown: New Contact, Update Contacts, Send Message.

Btw, do you have any idea that why whatsapp still show name that you saved in SIM card though have chosen not to display contacts from Sim ya?smile.gif
