Go to settings > caller id > tick "on phonebook contacts"

More and more people joining the club 

Just flashed this ROM (http://www.needrom.com/download/lenovo-k3-note-aosp-5-1/).

Caller ID issue not observed.

BT cannot be turned on. Tried via settings and also with ADB. Cannot turn on at all.

Also, if Sim is in slot 2, need to reboot a few times before data connection is working. Settings for SIM card change will pop up. After that, it will auto configure itself.

Try this ROM for caller ID issues.

Ah, so in other words the phone has already been rooted

So which rom for me now?.. need BT and also can be root..
tq

I m using 1524 ST rom which u can find it on 1st page. Everything seem find for me. Rooted.
Battery friendly, camera good, BT good, wifi good etc. Thanks to sitescope for latest stable rom and method to flash it and root it.
Important.....if u rooted your phone, u can't do OTA update. Just keep this in mind for all rooted android phones.

Bro, can you comment on the 1526 Dev ROM, any drawbacks seen as such in 1524 eg. whatsapp no LED notification? This is official ROM right? Cause I noticed sitescope only included 1524 as latest..

A. Yes... coz DEV is for testing & ST is for stable version...
I dun wan to test coz dun have an extra hp for testing... So I prefer stable version...
B. No idea coz yet to try
C. Yes
D. No coz ur recovery still custom.

I think people are confusing on OTA / ROOT / GAPPS

For stock rom (DEV & ST)
- if u want OTA, u will not be able to install GAPPS & ROOT.
Why ? Bcoz stock ROM doesn't coming with GAPPS & ROOT. So to have it, u need to install via recovery.
But ? U're unable to install GAPSS & ROOT via stock recovery coz stock recovery didn't recognize the zip format
So ? To solve this, u need to flash custom recovery (cwm/twrp) via flashtool
Then ? Once cwm/twrp installed, then u can install GAPPS & ROOTS
OTA ? OTA can be dloaded into the hp but when u wanna install, it'll detect that u don't have stock recovery. Hence, failed to install.
Solution ? If u wanna latest ST rom, u need to dload the whole rom (8++mb) and flash via cwm/twrp. Then flash GAPPS & ROOT again. Once ur hp booted, u need to restore all ur app via Titanium Backup.

Its gone bcoz u select reboot/restart in cwm...
Do not reboot/restart in cwm... just take out the battery & reinsert again... and on like normal...

Not ok... Coz not mistaken ship with 1512 rom...
U need to update to latest rom asap then baru can use...
Camera is nice...

Bro,  india will be releasing the phone tomorrow via flipkart.
That will have the "true blue" stock international lenovo ROM with OTA

So no more half baked  roms, annoying inconsistencies.... hopefully.

Just wait a 1wk - 2wks and someone will sure post on the web.

Be patient.

Yup, just buy like normal online shop. Yup, it accept debit card.

greetings people. i bought this item at lazada and receive the item on last friday. priced at RM 579 and use the lazada RM 75 coupon code discount GETAPP75 (now the phone price already increase to 600+. the lazada link). quite a bargain i think. mine is white, with yellow-ish coating.

i believe mine was from china, with china charger pin and documentation.

things to highlight:
1. the 'factory' rom i suspect it was modified with numbers of malware, thus need to flash other rom
2. official vibe ui rom is also crap. i use google now launcher, and can't use most of the widget (settings force close error). same also with other launcher.
3. tried limeonchelo novamod, but not quite happy with it. now using aosp
4. 1st sim is 2g/3g/4g capable. 2nd sim only 2g
5. still monitoring on the battery performance
