Hi All, Gurus,

I have been using a stock rom ever since I got it a few months ago. This is an AP phone brought from lazada. I notice the pre installed OS has a spyware or malware called SEARCH and is very annoying. Cannot remove it unless I root it. vIBEUI v2.5_1512...

I read in the forum we can upgrade to the latest version ? (Sorry still not familiar with the terms here).
I was trying to use Lenovo Smart assist. Downloaded the binary which was about 800Mb which transfered to my phone but after 6 hours it is still updating my phone. Something is not right.

Q1. Should I root it first before updating? I suspect the malware is preventing to update.
Q2. should I use the update directly through phone but I can not find the Update software menu. Not sure which link in Page 1 of this forum to search apk to install the apk. (Maybe I miss something?
Q3. Should I manually update it? And follow the update standard ROM link??

Sorry never done any rooting or install ROMs before. New bie here...

Hi All, I am still running on a old out of the box ROM for my k3 bought from China. Can someone advise me:
1. Where to go to flash my ROM with the latest?
A. Instructions and ROM to choose
B. If I go to a mobile phone shop to ask the to flush for me any recommendation?
2. Would moving to noughat slow the system?

Please advise.

Thanks will check it out
