sori... i dun have time to test... but u can follow below step :-

1. use SP_Flash_Tool_exe_Windows_v5.1452.00.000
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952594475

2. ensure that in option you check the DA DL ALL checksum, by default it is not checked

3. in the interface, choose "download only"

i'm not sure u must in vibeui rom or any custom rom before flash...

once completed, click "system update" coz got latest update...
*
Seem risky to flash it since no proper method to do it. Worry might brick the phone. I use baack china stable rom.

I think with the spftool method it would nearly impossible to brick the phone, since the flash machanism starts with the phone switched off.

Unlike samsung, moto, or lg where you need to enter download mode first to do the flash.

Can u share the steps how to flash it? I tried just now but fail, reinstall back china rom. Have to do all the phone setting and apps all over again sweat.gif

it is the same procedure as sitescope mention before. here are the steps in brief:

PART A - preparation
1. install & verify all the required drivers. can refer here
2. get the rom & extract the .7z file. download the rom here
3. get spftool and extract the zip file. download spftool here
4. optional - backup app via titanium backup and/or do a backup in recovery. save to external sd card

PART B - flashing
1. open spftool. go to option > download > da dl all with checksum > check all the 2 boxes (i have no idea what is this)
2. click scatter loading > select MT6752_Android_scatter.txt from \K50a40_S112_150610_ROW\target_bin\
3. click download
4. switch off phone. remove sim & sd card
5. connect phone to pc. spftool will start flashing
6. flashing successful when the green circle pops up
7. disconnect phone. switch on the phone and complete the initial set up & update

if you have no intention to root, enjoy the new rom!

PART C - rooting
1. get twrp recovery and extract the .rar file. download here
2. get supersu .zip file, save to phone. download here
3. open spftool. click scatter loading > select MT6752_Android_scatter.txt from \K3_Note_TWRP\
4. click download
5. switch off phone. remove sim & sd card
6. connect phone to pc. spftool will start flashing
7. flashing successful when the green circle pops up
8. disconnect phone. DO NOT POWER ON. enter recovery (vol up + vol down + power)
9. install supersu .zip file
10. reboot system and verify supersu app is properly installed

PART D - restore
1. if you are still reading, i don't think you understand why you need root...
2. install titanium backup and ehem*lucky patcher*ehem and you know the drill, or perhaps you might want to restore data from recovery

so that's it. let me know if i miss anything

Thanks a lot thumbup.gif . Will try it out soon.

K3 Note can do that...My K3N with 4G+Wifi can get 4 hours on China rom. Upgraded to India rom yesterday night.....SOT 2 hours and 50min....still got 45% battery left. And with light gaming also. Will keep testing it.

Here is a short review on this India Rom after use for 1 day
- Battery not much different with China rom
- Camera v4.1....nice but slightly slower than China rom when snapping photo
- Camera GUI improved
- Secondary camera improved but no more age detection.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


- Double tap for off screen not available on this version. Only got double tap for on screen.
- Not all apps can transfer to External SDCard. China rom can transfer all google apps to External SDCard.
- For gaming........smooth but China rom slightly smoother

- +60 no issue
- Loaded with gapps and no 3 party apps on it. Original calendar also using google calendar.
- Touchscreen sensitivity improved
- Support multilanguage
- Guess mode & Secure Zone [new feature]
- If can get K3N Teanna edition back battery cover.....it can enable ceramic speaker mode. China rom also got this feature.
- Notification panel looks better and more features on it.
- Notification center no issue....china rom notification center buggy, got issue when set notification for apps on SDcard.
- Auto run features improved
- Notification Led is working on Whatsapp and other apps
- Call/sms for sim1 and sim 2 can set as default.....no need to choose which sim card when want to make call or sms.


Thats all i can remember sweat.gif
Will add in if i found something........


This rom is awesome and the phone also awesome for price below RM600.

Mine works fine. Did you restore from titanium backup? Just do the clear data and rerun waze. I normally encounter this when restore waze from TB.

Hi all
New user reporting in..
Grrat fone for its price
Buy fr 1 gadget
But face a problem.
After root, i uninstall many bloats ( all the DU thing, apus)
Unfortunatly also delete the lenovo safecenter.
And now my apps menu is gone fr the setting page
Can anyone help with it?
Can someone upload the app here or mail me directly @
Muzaffarharun@gmail.com
Thanx to all for the help...
*
Since your phone is rooted......use 3rd party apps to freeze bloatware. Not recomended to uninstall it cause it may cause error.
U got 3 options
1. Bring back the phone to 1Gadget and ask them to reflash the rom.
2. Flash the rom by yourself but do it at your own risk. U can't reinstall internal apps.
3. Try do a factory reset......those bloatware will reinstall byitself but all gapps will gone unless u use international rom.

QUOTE(miloy2k @ Jul 14 2015, 10:42 AM)
Latest rom will be 5.1 soon right nod.gif how about ram usage on 5.0 rom?

5.0 rom have memory leak issue afaik sad.gif

Will be getting this phone after raya XD
*
Lastest international and china stable rom is running with android 5.0. Ram when idle is about 800mb+ left. Your phone got 2gb ram, so no need to worry about memory leak issue. 2gb is more than enough. I use this phone till 200mb ram left.....no lagging.
To all android phone user..........unsed ram is waste ram. Dont keep extra unsed ram.....use it.

I think almost all default apps on this rom is using google apps. Calender also using google calendar. I like this rom cause it only loaded with gapps. No 3rd party apps or bloatware like China rom.
