This phone is a 1:1 replica of the Samsung Galaxy S4, it has Air gestures,Air View, Smart Stay.
The phone has the same specifications to the HDC Galaxy S4 Legend, the only difference is that Legend has 2 sensors whereas Spark has only one (it cant understand if the air motion is coming from left or right) also Legend has OGS, whereas Spark dosent.
Other than that they are basicly the same phone, I couldnt find any thread about this phone, nor could i find any custom ROM's.
I dont want to risk bricking it by trying to flash it with a Legend ROM, so I came here for help.
Has anyone had any success flashing it?
I will flash my Spark as soon as it arrives
I'll try Legend Rom and No.1 S6 Rom

Alright, please post here on how it went.
Tried to flash -fluffy- ROM, got a soft brick
I tried No.1 S6 rom and it did not boot. The LED blinks blue and the display turns on, but no logo... And after a while the phone turns off
Fortunately, I made a backup and restaured my phone successfuly
Actualy there is a rom for hdc galaxy spark on needrom.
but i've got no luck using that rom. Everything works fine except i can't make a phone call,texting, or connect to the internet, but maybe that rom works for you guys, you can give it a try

What drivers are you using to flash the spark. I have one and cannot get any drivers to work with the sp flasher.

For your information: SPFlash Tools only works this way:
1) Turn the phone off
2) Take the battery out
3) Open SPFlashTools as administrator (right click -> run as administrator)
4) Click on "Scatter-Loading" and choose the Scatter File
5) Click on "Firmware -> Upgrade"
6) ONLY THEN, connect the phone, WITHOUT THE BATTERY, on the USB
7) Insert the battery
8) SPFlash Tools should start the upgrade process
YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW THESE STEPS, NECESSARILY IN THIS ORDER, otherwise, it will not work, ok?

Thanks I swapped out ports and cables and got it to flash. None of the air features work sadly. I used the s4 spark from needrom. I did make a backup of the original so i can reload it back. When I did a factory reset on this phone it wiped the imei. There wasn't a sticker under the battery or anything in the box. FCT tells me they dont keep a record of the imei of the phones they sell so I'm screwed. Not sure what to do since in all my reading I have come to the conclusion that without a backup of the efs its gone. pisses me off its a sweet little phone for the price I paid.

Buy an old samsung phone at e-bay and use its IMEI...
For some reason Spark gets no love here. I am folowing a thread on a russian forum, a guy is working on a Rom right now. Il post if it comes out and if I flash it.
If you get a link for that rom just send it to me I will flash it and post results. Cant use the phone anyway currently so I'm not worried about bricking it since I have an s4 active as my primary.

I own this phone as well and am looking to root it. I have only found one lead that I thought might work at oneclickroot.com., but it is, in fact, bogus. Seems to always freeze at the first step of just identifying the phone. I will continue looking around. XDA, adding this phone's files to your database would be appreciated, it's actually a promising device with decent hardware.
I have a 6.0q u can root it using king root
Can I at least firmware upgrade to lollipop.

You can make your own custom recovery. It's an involved process involving MTK Droid Tools and SP Flash Tool. Search on Google and you will find some tutorials. It's an involved process but it is not difficult.
Here is an example of one method. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2379412
It shows you how to use MTK Droid Tools to make the CWM recovery. But it doesn't use the SP Flash Tool to read back the firmware from the phone. It assumes that you already have the stock boot image to use with MTK Droid Tools.
Personally, the easiest way to get the stock boot image is to root your phone, install busybox using Busy Box X from the Play Store, then install Flashify. With Flashify you can backup the stock boot.img (which is called your kernel). Once you have the boot.img kernel, you can go back to MTK Droid Tools on your PC and create the CWM from that kernel.
Don't forget to thank me if this has helped you. Or let me know if you have other questions.
any firmware for this phone ?

Yes. It's inside every working phone of the same model! Use SP Flash Tool to read back/dump the firmware. You need a scatter.txt file for the phone. You get that by turning on USB Debugging on the phone and using MTK Droid to read the scatter.txt from the phone.

No. You cannot because they have never released Lollipop firmware for ANY of the SKY devices. And no developer has created any custom ROMs for ANY of the SKY devices as it is a tiny brand. You're stuck with what you have! Enjoy.

So this happened with absolutely no warning? It sounds like EITHER the battery is completely dead OR you flashed the wrong kernel to the phone.
Try the following: plug in the wall charger while you hold the volume down button. Keep holding the button down. Hold for about 15-20 seconds. Then release the volume down button. The phone should start charging eventually. You'll see the battery icon. Let it charge for at least an hour before you attempt to turn it on.
If that doesn't work, you'll need to take the battery out of the phone and charge it in a universal battery charger.
If the battery is completely charged but your phone still does not turn on, you need to use SPFT (SP Flash Tool) to flash the firmware.

Well, I was misinformed by the seller and he tricked me thinking I bought a D802. I was like hurrah! and suddenly i tried to flash Autorec TWRP recovery and phone just went into Fastboot coz it was D800 :crying:. I somehow Managed to restore download mode but flashing any D802 ROM gave me a "Stuck at LG" screen. I gave my set to a repair shop and i hope IA the problem will be Solved
EDIT: Check my Fake/Refurbished LG G3 thread for more easier instructions.
Confirm IMEI:
Its quite simple and does not require any laptop or anything else!
Note down the IMEI by *#06#, then follow these steps..
1.Make sure the cell is off.
2.Hold Vol up + Vol down + Power at the Same time and keep on holding until you see a White screen with "Hardware Control Written Over it"...
3.You can see the ORIGINAL IMEI at the bottom right above the bar code..
[You can also Check model with this IMEI by hooking into THIS[Updated]]
Confirm Model: [Updated] [RECOMMENDED]
Works Fine on Stock KK ROM with Stock Recovery, Doesn't Work with LP and JB
Though if you've internet then IMEI check stated above is very easy and efficient.
Else you can always confirm the Model if that is what you desire...
Things you need BEFORE buying..
Laptop with latest IOroot.zip [Check here] [You can also just download adb files from internet]
Instructions:
1.Download and extract the latest IOroot.zip
2.Enable USB Debugging. VZW users must also enable ethernet mode.
3.Now Change USB connection to MTP.
4.Open terminal/command prompt. windows/linux users: cd into /ioroot folder. mac users cd into /ioroot/mac
(windows users can hold shift key, right click in ioroot folder. Select "open command window" option.
5.copy/paste commands below
adb devices
6.Now, you'll get "Authorize this PC", check always box[or whatever] and hit accept.
Now again,
copy/paste commands below.. hitting enter/return after each line.
adb devices
adb reboot recovery
[If you get device not found error, make sure you are following the steps else try disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable]
Now at top of the recovery screen, you have your REAL Model
[Do not forget to say Thanks, if this saved you from a Scam! ] :good:
PS: The reason i mentioned IOroot.zip is only that you can also root your device with it if you're on Kitkat
I am not really sure how reliable www.imei.info is cos my phone model shows that it is a D802 witk kitkat D80220c-ZAF-XX but when i check my IMEI on www.imei.info it shows that it is a D800 model but when i check the same imei at www.imeidata.net it shows that my phone is indeed a D802

Yes its not reliable but you should also confirm your imei via "Confirm IMEI Check" stated above..
I also bought an D802 and even the *#06# showed it as D802 but the Hardware Control mode confirmed it as D800 and even the recovery said its D800 :/
The reason for posting this thread is also for someone willing to Flash a Custom Recovery and he/she, just like me, rely on the About page shown in the setting :/
One should always Confirm the Model via Recovery BEFORE flashing Custom Recovery!
Question:
Why do you want the 802 model more than the 800 model? I plan to use Lollipop, and I don't know if one is better than the other for that update :s

The imei can't always be relied upon. The only way to be 100% sure of your model number is to check the back of the motherboard.

You're absolutely right but when one ponders upon the "Used Cell Phone Market", easy way is checking model via recovery but to be 100% sure, one can check the mobo to be damn sure

Hello everyone,
Before reading this, please be advised that I have read every topic related to this phone and tried everything (step by step) but I couldn't find any solution yet for the problem I have, so here it is:
Bought this phone one year ago and I'm very pleased about his performance. Yet, some months ago i might flash a ROW ROM version - I didn't had any clue what I'm doing - and the problems started...
Since one month, I'm flashing my phone every day trying to get it work but without success phone is Lenovo P780 CMIIT ID : 2013CP5888 - I assume it is made in 2013 and the details on the back are written in chinese.
The problem : all apps crash after installing stock rom (china version) and once the phone is off it won't boot (after repeatedly pressing the red button sometimes it starts). Every time after flashing it works for a few hours then it stops (freezes/restarts and keeps the logo picture untill I press the red button under the back cover)
My last flashing attempt (few hours ago):
Step 1. I have installed P780_S129_130710 ROM with SP flash tool
Step 2. I have installed LiFe_v07 4GB CHINESE ROM with SP flash tool
Phone is off now, I can't boot it since some hours and have left it to charge.
PS: i have all the drivers for flashing correctly installed
I'm very frustrated because i'm having the same every day and I can't seem to solve it yet. If someone would guide me through solving it I would be very happy :good::fingers-crossed:
Update:
Just flashed again the step 2 ROM, here is the SS of current ROM version

Hi @stympy,
I would like to take a moment to "Thank you !" " for all your efforts while sharing all these posts on Lenovo P780 forum.
Few days back, I faced an issue during rooting my P780 and phone went to "Charging light ON rest NOTHING" condition.
I referred numberous posts and solutions on this forum and then found a way of flashing stock ROM using SPFlashtool.
I was using Windows 10 on my laptop and SPFlashtool didn't worked well (tried v3 & v5).
The reason being, due to "Driver signature verification" as it didn't allowed to load mediatek driver.
Once I disabled it, the flashing tool work flawlessly and I was able to bring the phone back to life.
I spent around 2 days troubleshooting this issue. While searching solutions for this issue, I came across your MANY posts which were very helpful.
So, I would like to THANK YOU from bottom of my heart for being so much active while helping others on this platform.
Keep up the great work !! Have a great time ahead. !

Hi. Go to development section.
There you will find stock firmware for your phone 8 or 4 gb. Download the one you need.
After download go to q&a section on rooting tutorial for kitkat and download spflah tools 3 an 5. Those are the tools recommended for this phone. Those are modified tools for Lenovo P780. Download. Be careful to check if your NVRAM is intact. Settings/about phone. Look in IMEI area and see if your IMEI is there.
If not this is another problem to solve.
If your IMEI is lost look for my post tools for recovery IMEI.
Good luck.

No. You did not brick your phone.
You must reinstall the drivers.
Before reinstalling drivers try this: when you flash the phone you must press red small button located on the back of the phone under the back case, metal back case. Start spflash tool, load scatter file, select firmware upgrade, press download and now press the small red button for 20 seconds. Tell me what is going on.

Try this:
1. Open device manager
2. Leave the window open
3. Power down the phone
4. Plug the phone to your USB cable
5. Look now on device manager window on ports section
6. In ports section will appear something like MTK 6.5.x.x preloader or MTK 6.5.9.2 com port x, where x is a port number.
7. This thing will appear for max 2 seconds, then will disappear.
8. Tell me what you have there so i know what you have to do.

2. Leave the window open
3. Power down the phone
4. Plug the phone to your USB cable
5. Look now on device manager window on ports section
6. In ports section will appear something like MTK 6.5.x.x preloader or MTK 6.5.9.2 com port x, where x is a port number.
7. This thing will appear for max 2 seconds, then will disappear.
8. Tell me what you have there so i know what you have to do.

Did above all steps...
Got a message saying all drivers are upto date
Then Opened SPFT v5
Loaded the scatter file
pressed download
Also connected the USB at same time
Now it gives error saying(" BROM Undetected rom ")
Update :
Hi the phone started
All i did was just change to download in SPFT v5 & it worked voila...
The IMEI number is still intact, It does show in settings of the phone..
The only problem i have now is i dont have a WLAN MAC address ,Bluetooth address & IP address in the status in settings
Update:
The phone now as i have tested so far does not have any range for the mobile network
Phone memory & sd card is though showing properly.
What course of action to be taken forward. Kindly advice.
Hi,
i also brocked my Note 3...
After updating with SP Flash tools 1516 my phone does not show any sign of life...
I flashed the last chinese stable from xiaomi and SP flash finished with the green hook
Now the phone does not boot, the screen is black and if connected to the charger there is
no red light and i dont know if it charges at all
I can still repeat flashing the phone but to no avail. Connecting the phone to
usb while holding VOL +, Vol - and power there is "connecting and disconnecting"
sound from WIN7.
However Miflash does not recognize the phone anymore.
Could it be that there is a problem with the locked bootloader ?
I read some threads on Mi4 phones where they had to shorten some testpoints on the motherboard
to get the phone back to life, maybe there is a similar way for the Note 3?
I already did a lot of successfull flashing with other phones so i didnt expect any sort of problems....
Any help is really appreciated !!
Greetings
Joachim
Same problem here
Redmi Note 3 came with some unoffical multi language ROM preinstalled (7.00.11.00)
OTA did not work, downloading update onto the phone and updating via Update-App did not work either, so there was no other way than using SP Flashtool to get some official ROM on it
Downloaded official 7.0.19.0 and loaded it into SP Flashtool => Flashing went without any fault (green hook at the end) but phone doesnt do anything since then
You should untick the first option in flashtool (preloader). I had the same problem once. Here is a video which helped me and saved me device. Follow the instructions and you'll be ok. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3TmXtOA0IA

It was a big mistake selecting "format all" option. Now everything inside your phone is deleted (including IMEI). Big problem. Who suggested you to do this?

I was in the same boat as you. The only way to revive my RN3 was to select format and download otherwise it would not turn on. I then experienced the no imei issue as you are. When I did was follow a guide which I got from en.miui.com under tips and tutorials for Redmi Note 3 where it says to permanent fix imei and worked. I never lose my imei now

if you could that would be amazing. I am stuck in a locked bootloader and fastboot doesn't detect the phone (altough adb does) so I cannot unlock it.

yes.
I tried to flash supersu from twrp and since then I'm stuck in bootloader (couldn't unlock bootloader due to fastboot not seeing the phone). I still can get to recovery, but can't boot up the system.
Alcatel's Mobile Upgrade Q doesn't work for me either (tried on 2 different PC's).
I hope restoring clean non-rooted boot/system will help, if somebody can share the backup files.

Which Mobile Upgrade Q are you using? Try to use 5.0.3 version. Tried both on my 64bit Windows 10 and 7 for my 5051x Optus locked phone. But you need to manually put your phone to download mode (while your phone completely off, press all volume up + volume down + power), then plug in your phone, start the program and follow the prompt.
Had to reflash my phone numerous time, because supersu seems to brick the phone, while kingroot lost its root every reboot.

which driver do you have installed? (what shows up in device manager?) When the phone is in download mode, my PC doesn't detect it. after several seconds the phone exits download mode, and then gets detected, but it doesn't auto-install any driver, so I have to manually choose something.
Still, if someone could send me full backup from TWRP, I could try to restore it on the phone and get it working this way.

Can you upload your twrp backup, or at least your stock recovery pleeease? I really need it since this is my work phone and it should be as stock as it came when they check it.
