Yup..managed to do it but all data gone since I actually flashed the phone using these steps:

That site really helps if a K900 gets bricked

After I flash to 131010, it just takes about 2 mins to boot. After knowing its Android 4.2.1, I might go back to 'K900_1_S_2_019_0113_130903_DVT3_CPUsign_root'. The 130903 root is Android 4.2.2.

Btw, is there any release note for 131010?

Not only him..I feel that VibeRom is not stable yet, few issues I noticed:

1. GPS not stable. Sometimes, GPS is not able to locate my location. Then, if I restart the GPS application, sometimes the GPS did not run (there is no GPS icon at the top).

2. Phone gets laggy after about 5 hours. When I play games, it feels really laggy. The game loads fine, loads fast, but when I play it, can feel that it is lagging. Also, I encountered once where when I made a call, it lags so bad that the call screen didn't even show. I can't end calls!

3. Phone heats up faster. I'm using the ROW 131010, and I am surprised that the phone isn't as hot as before, when playing the same game.

4. It happened twice when when I unlock my phone, nothing is displayed. Just blank. Holding the power button doesn't help either. What I had to do is, press Vol+ + Power buttons, then restart from there =.=

Download a copy of the official rom first, you might not like viberom. After reverting to 131010.. I feel like I'm using my k900 nicely again

What is rooted? Ronald_loulan has provided a 131010 root:

Anyway, I'll explain what I did

1. Download all the necessary software:
IntelAndroidDrvSetup1.2.0 - http://lenovo-forums.ru/Files/OS/K900/Inte...vSetup1.2.0.exe
iSocUSB-Driver-Setup-1.0.2 - http://lenovo-forums.ru/Files/OS/K900/Tool...Setup-1.0.2.exe
ManufacturingFlashTool_Setup_6.0.2 - http://lenovo-forums.ru/Files/OS/K900/Tool...Setup_6.0.2.exe

2. Install IntelAndroidDrvSetup1.2.0 (You can refer to the Russian website to see the screenshots, installation is straight forward)

3. Install iSocUSB-Driver-Setup-1.0.2 (You can refer to the Russian website to see the screenshots, installation is straight forward BUT take note at the last step of installation where it asks you to connect your phone to your PC, and do a restart so that the driver the installed properly. Once you do that, you should see a popup on your PC saying that a new 'CloverviewPlus' device has been installed successfully.)

4. Install ManufacturingFlashTool_Setup_6.0.2.

5. Run the Manufacuring Flash Tool, to go File > Settings. Follow the settings in this screenshot:


6. Disconnect K900 from PC and power off K900. At the Manufacturing Flash Tool, navigate to File > Open and select the xml file of the ROM you want to flash. (I've tried an xml of a rooted ROM, and it fails. If you have no original ROM, download this: http://lenovo-forums.ru/Files/OS/K900/K900...Usign_full.rar)

7. After you have selected the xml, the Manufacturing Flash Tool should state that flashing is ready. Then, just connect your K900 to your PC and the flash should start automatically.

8. Once successfully flashed, disconnect K900 from PC and start your phone. The ROW I provided is 130602, super old one, but can update to latest ROW. From here, I flashed to 131010 rooted and all goes smoothly


I tried using the xFSTK method (from xda forum), but I always get "SOC device is disconnected". The Manufacturing Flash Tool is automated, hence much simpler. I think this process is similar to SonnyCooL's method

Try my method, make sure you install the drivers properly. Also, when you want to flash, make sure the device is OFF, then connect the USB to it. Once you connect the USB, K900 will automatically switch on and flashing should start.

Screen will always be blank
Just hope that the percentage keeps on increasing

Me! Successful but need to go through the unbrick process ><

Maybe it's because we flash from VibeRom? Could it be the reason? Last time when we use VibeRom, we had to flash the VibeRom inb file, then flash the system.img.gz. But now, we just flash directly to 131010 system.img.gz. What I think is, the proper process should be flashing back to the original inb, then only flash to 131010 system.img.gz. Just my 2 cents

There's boot.img though. I downloaded the same 131010 rooted ROM, still missing the boot.bin file, so I guess its normal..

Maybe it's hardware issue d..just wondering when you flash, do you clear partition/cache/user data?

Mine, regardless of what ROM, can go till 3-4%

Hmm mine is 2A output

I'm using 131010 rooted.. Dun dare to upgrade lol

Anyone using VIBE ROM v4?
