Now install Nova launcher, ExDialer (with KK theme, etc), whatever wallpapers, ringtones, icon theme you like, further customize to your heart's content. Other than that, the rest is stock Lenovo UI (Settings, Power bar, etc)...

I think Lenovo should release such UI for our P780, the stock one simply too shakehead.gif

Bro, want me to help you? We can meet at KL Sentral if you want, I already know about all precaution for flashing P780. Because I've paid RM140 extra tution fees to learn flashing P780 sweat.gif

Now on Vibe ROM, and my phone UI personally I felt it's better than Samsung rclxm9.gif

I don want to use sp tools... duno y the zip I downloaded files extension is *.7z ...  how to install it?,

Hmm why not SP Tools? Unless you have backup-ed your ROM with CWM then only can try to restore backup, or else try flash some ROM which is made recovery flashable ROM from lepakspot.com.

If p780 is waiting for KitKat then I don't think I have to bother Supercharging since KitKat ripped the script and made them part of 4.4

Bro, why don't you try this? brows.gif brows.gif

It's a nightmare really to upgrade. Even need 1-2 days to prepare the file and learning the HOWTO. Maybe later as I need to familiarize myself with the new update and compare it to supercharged version. Main concern is how the GPS will behave.

Plus, the upgrade cost my game data to reset.
*
TiBackup -> No problem. I have learned to flash P780 ROM by paying RM140 LoL and 14 days of learning. So that I can flash Vibe ROM. And then finally 2 days ago I got a successful flash. icon_rolleyes.gif It looks damn awesome and better compared to stock ROM, even better than Touchwiz and Sense UI.

QUOTE(sar @ Feb 24 2014, 04:06 PM)
Can you tell us any noticeable improvement compared to s123
*
Actually the Vibe ROM is based on China P780 firmware. The signal reception for DiGi is very good though. Although the GPS is takes some time to lock. And the ROM does not include Gapps, must flash it manually. whistling.gif

vibe is based on ROW or Chinese based?

Chinese, but not a big deal, you can simply just flash Gapps package. Then you will have Playstore available.

is it chinese base again???
i see the flashing that you did in XDA... y u flash recovery again n again???

Huh? I didn't flash again and again... Woot. After I reviewed some info, Lenovo official claimed you can flash the ROM via stock recovery. But since the Vibe ROM is China base (no Gapps included), so I suggest you change base / change to stock China S125 and above ROM before you start flashing Vibe ROM. Get it? biggrin.gif

The last time I tried official VIBE (or any other Chinese base ROMs) I always have this problem of caller id. If my network (DiGi) does not send the country code (when I receive call non-DiGi sometimes), it doesn't match my address book entry. Something to do with in China they match up to 11 digits to decide its a match.

So I wonder, do you face such issue and do you have a fix?

I think in GravityBox there is such an option (does it work with Vibe?), also some hack in framework possible but then you need to repeat every time Vibe updates...
*
Oh lol, if you don't tell me I also didn't noticed. I am using GravityBox now. Btw, my phone is rooted and have some customizations, if new Vibe released, I might need to reflash the whole thing again.

Anyone knows why P780 performs very well with 3D games such as GTA Vice City or Temple Run set maximum graphics detail, but it is sluggish on 2D games such as Subway Surfers?

hye. please clarify me about the gps performance. i've read this thread but yet to found concrete answer. can i use gps while driving with apps like waze or papago? can the gps lock our position when driving? tq
*
Of course you can, if not then it's not called GPS already tongue.gif. But Mediatek GPS chipset's are a bit weak, you need to be in an open area to let the GPS easily lock on, once locked, it can trace you even if you enter a building, such as my apartment at 2nd floor. smile.gif

Dungeon Hunter 4 is good game but slight sluggish if set high setting.... Medium and low setting is good enough..
BTW, I'm not having sluggishness on Subway Surfer game...
Still perfect to me...

Haha, I tried GTA San Andreas on P780, on Medium graphics it's quite smooth, unless I am having big explosions then will lag for sure. Overall, I found out the graphics on my phone actually are better than my PC version. LoL rclxms.gif

Thanks for ur feedback. i have p770 but the gps is completely useless even outside building. planning to upgrade to p780 if the gps can be used cuz gps is important for me. Then can i use waze or papago accurately?

I don't know about Papago or Waze la, because I just use Google Maps, and it's working perfectly.

downloaded, it only move from phone storage to internal sd

Bro, you can try Link2SD, it is super effective if you have a Class 10 microSDHC card. smile.gif

Or you can try at storage, select default write disk from internal storage to external storage/disk.

Just now try calibrating battery and currently with S123...
No problem at all... Successful until 100%.. smile.gif
Before S123 also same successful...
*
Bro, just wondering, on stock S123, when calibrating / charging the phone, will it get into deep sleep mode or it stays at lowest frequency until the charge is completed? Use A1 CPU tool to check the CPU state. And was your phone warm while charging?
