Its awful.
It lags continuously, even though it is supposed to be kitkat. There is a buggy implementation of speech recognition which is NOT google now, as it should be. Even though it is a translated version of the chinese ROM and free of chinese apps, some rough translation problems emerge every now and then. I thought it would feel like proper kitkat but it doesn't. For me its a total fail
At first look seems to be good, but when you get more deep in to the settings and install apps seems yo get more errors,apps that freez, crushes,etc etc.
NOT RECCOMENDET ROM.
I am back to LiFe v.07

Anyone know how to set to use SIM card contacts? Seems like KitKat 4.4 contacts must be from gmail account and will not take from SIM card. I am having different contacts on SIM1 and SIM2 for work and personal and I do not want to merge them and stored at my gmail account. Thanks.

ROM needs a lot of work to be done - Please don't flash
I appreciate the work done by OP but this ROM really needs to be removed from this thread. Feel sorry to neglect the warnings given by previous posts.. I just installed it and removed it within an hour of using it.. For sake of others time and efforts i am provinding the list of bugs found and reason why this ROM needs a lot of improvement.
My Device Details :
Lenovo P780 Indian / Custom S124_ROW / 8GB
Issues with this ROM -
Does not detect SD storage
2G signal not detected only 3G
Plenty of Fc's while installing apps from playstore
Some how Root explorer or any other file manager fails to write on system partition, even though all read write permissions are granted
In short untill further information or any update i suggest all flashing manics to stay away from this.
Hope I saved some time here !!
Lenovo P780 and Kit Kat 4.4.2 – Complete Installation and Root Tutorial with download links -
i have written a nice article with proper download links to manually update your Lenovo P780 to Kit Kat. Head over to the link at bottom and taste your piece of Kit Kat !!
Pre Requisites – very important if you are a noob !:
Lenovo P780 4GB or 8 GB version. works for both.
Phone needs to be updated to S_124_ROW firmware. The update to Kit Kat will never succeed if you are any thing below S_124_ROW firmware. Check your phone settings and search for update manually if you still haven’t received it. I got OTA updated.
At least 25% battery charge. You don’t want a brick then ensure you have at least 25% charge on the battery before you start flashing.
External Memory Card. The internal memory will be wiped off. Talking of wipe please backup all your data on the internal phone storage as this will be washed away.
Little patience !
What is good about this :
So far everything works fine. LED works for missed calls and SMS
Battery Life is amazing. It took me 2 full days to drain from 100% to 10% with moderate usage. Always connected to Wifi.
Felt a little lag in UI if using stock vibe UI, changed to Nova launcher for butter smooth operations
All Sensors work. Magnetic sensor too.
What is bad about this :
You tube playback. Sometimes the video and audio is out of sync. However if you play it via browser every things cool.
Head over to this link for full tutorial and download links : On request by lot of members i have removed the social lock from page. The page can now be accessed directly.
http://studioscue.com/lenovo-p780-8gb-indian-version-kitkat-4-4-2-installtion-and-rooting/
Got updated to S221_ROW - Here is my observation after using it for 2 full days. -
1. After switching the run time to ART, Phone is much smoother to operate.
2. Battery Back up seems to have increased marginally.
3. Huge improvement in camera section. Macro shots are really awesome.
4. Over all there seems to be a lot of improvement in responsiveness.
5. Higher frame rates in games.
6. In short a great package. Must do it now !!
Got updated to S222_ROW - Here is my first observation after using it for two days (21-Aug-2014) -
1. You tube audio sync issues finally seem to be resolved. Yeiahhhhhhhhhhhh !!
2. Excellent memory optimization. Free available RAM moves up to 500MB
3. Batter endurance good enough.
4. ART run time further improved.
5. Rooting is a hard but this time. You need to use older version of SP flash tools with self made scatter file from MTK droid tool.
6. Removed Lenovo camera. Crap software with lot of footprint here and there. Instead using Camera HD ultra from playstore. great camera package with minimal features and memory footprints.
7. Over all an excellent update package. Recommended for all. :good::good:
Got updated to S223_ROW - What's New and improved (9-September-2014) -
1. User 0 thing in the notification bar is gone.
2. More responsive.
3. Battery endurance just about same.
4. If you find your phone lagging or slow to launch frequently used apps, i suggest go to power manager and disable smart endurance. Doesn't make a lot of difference to Battery backup but does make the phone significantly faster to launch frequent apps.
5. Rooting done via scatter file loaded from S222_ROW and latest version of SP flash tools. Compatible version is TWRP 2.7.1.1
6. I already have removed all the bloatware from phone including Lenovo Camera. Using Nexus Gallery and Camera HD ultra.
7. Much better performance with ART set as runtime in dev options.
Got updated to S226_ROW - What's New and improved (26-September-2014) -
1. UI is now based on Vibe UI 2.0 which is lenovo's answer to MIUI.
2. Although the UI is based in Vibe there is no visual change in how the phone interface looks like.
3. Major improvement in Camera section. Camera can now lock focus even in pitch black darkness.
4. Smoother UI with almost zero lags under normal operation. You might find a little lag while browsing system properties and running apps.
5. Rooting done via scatter file loaded from S226_ROW and latest version of SP flash tools. Compatible version is TWRP 2.7.1.1
6. Battery endurance increased. Make sure you calibrate battery using the built in power manager.
7. You Tube works fine.
8. Also please go to Google Settings and opt out of advertisement section, this will free up a lot of RAM.
9. With all basic apps installed and phone in ready to use condition, i have around 450MB of free RAM. Check the screenshot
why does the link go to the Russian version? the thread states that it's the Indian row version. is this release stable? can it be ota updated?
hi

Lenovo P780 and Kit Kat 4.4.2 – Complete Tutorial
Many a times i have noticed that even though we Indians are amongst the best Information Technology professionals in the world, almost every other company seems to be launching their products in India only after its quite dated in European and American countries. This really pisses me up and i strongly feel like we Indians too deserve nothing but the best of all and that too on time. Official updates for Lenovo P780 to Kit kat could take another year or may never come as well. So i have written a nice article with proper download links to manually update your Lenovo P780 to Kit Kat. Head over to the link at bottom and taste your piece of Kit Kat !!

It is not the Indian version. India is yet to receive any update. But this works perfectly on Lenovo p780 bought in India. Go ahead and flash it. It's safe. Just make sure your phone is on s_124_row

I suggest you reflash s_119_row via so flash tool. Then check for Ota updates and update to s_123 then again check for Ota updated and update to s_124. Once that's done you simply need to copy the downloaded kitkat update to root of SD card and reboot the phone to recovery. It will update automatically. Let us know how it works.

I'm in the UK and the OTA update has appeared P780_ROW_S220_140722 (722MB) for my stock S124 ROM. Not pulled the trigger yet but I don't understand why you people don't just update OTA instead of downloading.
i am unable to boot into recovery. recovery flash was ok. but when i try to boot into it, it says invalid command. Any other way to toot this device?

Switch off the phone. Open up SP tools. Load the scatter file and then uncheck everything except recovery. Click download then connect your phone to PC. Once the green circle appears disconnect. Now hold the power plus vol up and vol down button together.

So what's the verdict on Kit Kat guys? All good? Everything working fine? Is the LED finally fixed so it works for WhatsApp and Email? The Russian forums say there is an issue with the camera and a fix is expected in the next week or two.
Please post what you think is good and bad about the new update. What about new software? Battery life better than/as good as/worse than 4.2?

How about the cam? anyone know how to fix it? It says cannot access cam. And rooting is a bust that's for sure.
I am rooted. I think sometimes it fails to write recovery.
I didn't like the update. Slx was better.
Apps like hike n some other messengers don't run in background. And become offline. This applies to other apps also which i want continuous running like smart cover.
Dialer shows very small pic of the caller. Security app is worst I have ever used AVG is much better.
Just update with this rom last night..so far everything is ok... I got the old problem.. Sms/whatsapp doest show contact.. Just showing number.. Doest have this problem when im using miui rom..anyone know how to fix this?

I tried this Lollipop Rom, i am not able to get 3G network even after i reverted back
Hi,
I Have give a try for the rom based on Lollipop version. In that rom, i am not able to get any 3G network, so then i reverted back to slim kat through nandroid backup. But to my surprise, the 3G network is not available in the Slim kat also, even after i reverted from lollipop rom. I have struck up without 3G as i tried as many roms as possible. can you please guide me to get through this? FYI - I am living in India using the unlocked version of AT&T OG E970 and my current ROM is Paulicat's Kitkat 4.4.2 based on F180's stock.
Thanks in Advance.

working data/wifi
As confirmed earlier, a combination of a v11.1 Jollaman Kernel as well as any of the android 5.0 versions seems to work. The only downside to it is that the back camera doesn't work, but I'm sure that will be fixed soon. I don't think it's a problem of camera driver issues, but more of just a kernel problem and implementation with 5.0. Someone should look at the sources between geebkernel and jollaman and try to hybridize them in order to get all 3 things working.
The modified release 17 posted by KevTheGuy addresses the issue of working WiFi, data and camera. I've noticed a battery drain issue on release17 though that limits its usability as a daily driver.
wifi mac address changed
when i use this phone i can not use my hostel wifi because of mac filtering in my college and after installing this rom my mac address changes....this problem is also there on new builts of pa rom by their legacy team. wifi works on router's without mac filtering..pls help me solve the issue.

Hey guy i have geeb e971 canada version, i can flash this rom? Not have problem?
I flashed this on a e971 Rogers version with no issues (everything works). The only problem I'm having is a fast draining battery about 4hrs of use. Tried turning off WiFi scanning and GPS but it doesn't solve the battery drain. Have not tested Bluetooth yet. No SD card in this device so can't make any comment about that.

Hey guy, restore the backup of your efs folder to restore 3g Connection, check that you have configured the apn from your mobile service provider. If this does not solve the problem Thou shouldst one kdz flash and restore it to its factory stock version.

I used TWRP 2.8.1 provided by brothaedhung in the OP (Original post). Before flashing I wiped system, data, cache and dalvik. Then I flashed the ROM, PA gapps, and superSU version provided in the OP. The battery lasts about 2hrs of screen time. Other than that everything works perfectly. To be honest at this point I still prefer using KK Mahdi ROM because many of the custom features of CM are still missing in this early version (no custom power menu, no way unlink ring and notification volume, no way to customize the notification bar, etc). I'm also not a big fan of the kernel since it doesn't have the options to correct gamma and tune the audio output. I'm not sure if Jolla Kernel L preview works with this build. For an early version of CM for GEEB this is awesome.

Thanks guy, the jolla kernel tends to drain the battery that is the main reason to have 2 hours of screen time. rom which I currently recommend to my e971 since I have the stock rom paulicat kk. to be honest I've been through artmod (with a patch modified by a friend to work on my e971), I had the rom cover gee 3 (flashed as the E970 and works without problems), use the slimkat v7 is good rom but not me was more than 3 hours on screen time, I wanted to use the cyanogenmod but only have in the stable version 10.2 (4.3 JB) has only nightly rest, paranoid does not have support for e971 and e973, not for the moke you I have no information about whether or not it supports the pacman gave me some bug, I'm looking for a well optimized without any kind of bug rom. Sorry for my english, i speak spanish.

Seeing I am probably going to add more questions in the future I decided to make a post on a different forum I am a mod for so I could edit and link it in the future. Here is a link to my phone's information:
Code:
rechtenforum.nl/forum/thread/p/224028/#224028
(can't link yet because of being new and all)
After getting a stable running P780 I want to make it better (and have less little annoyances) so I have the following list of short questions;
Can I "simply" remove Chrome.apk and use a different browser?Tried zipping Chrome.apk and moving it to SD-card, works like a charm
How can I prevent (Lenovo) security from giving me a warning every time an app was prevented from accessing my location (I don't mind if it gets logged of course)Sort of Solution: Settings => system => notification manager turned off all notifications
How do I assign a different video app to Wide touch (I want it to refer to VLC, and not have to go through favourites --> VLC)
I have (after updating) two versions of (Lenovo) Security; v6.8.18 ("normal" app I can disable) and v4.5.0.484 (Always running system app). Can I remove one?
What apps should / should I not allow in (Lenovo) Security for; (see attachments, once again can't link to imgur to show the images in this post)
Thank you in advance for your help.

Lots of them: http://smartoff.net/hw-themes/
Download themes and putt them on SD Card in a folder called HWThemes.

After applying Default theme you can apply custon themes!

MiUI and EMUI are totally different. MIUI is the UI created by Xiaomi for their phones. EMUI is Emotion UI created by Huawei for their phones. Completely different in structure, but similar in looks (a little.) So if you want to back up your apps from EMUI to MIUI you will HAVE to use an app like Titanium Backup and back them up on SD card.

Woah, nice SS man! This ROM looks amazing. Please update us about the RAM management and the battery life. Is there any major lag?
Edit: Also could you add a SS of the locked screen or an image of it or something?

So I tried this ROM and have a few tips and pointers for those who are flashing it:
1) The icons and wallpapers are weird at the start so the moment you install this ROM and boot, go to Themes and change the theme to Default(Magazine) theme so that everything becomes materialistic and stuff.
2) The Language of the ROM is some weird one at beginning (Russian maybe) so change it to English
3) The Keyboard is weird at beginning, not the normal one, so you may have to download a better one like Google Keyboard etc.
4) It shows the SD card as Internal Memory for some reason and the Built in one as external. I don't know why but doesn't make much of a difference.
EDIT: 5) Also don't forget to install Systemui.apk as it imporves the icons a bit and the animations as Stympy said above. And the theme folders have loads of themes that you can download but haven't tried them yet.
Otherwise, the ROM is beautiful. Somewhat similar to MiUI but also different at the same time. NO major lags or stutters. Materialistic, (not animations just looks) and battery and RAM management seems fantastic. Try it. Try it now.
For themes to work in this ROM,first change theme from default to gleam and then apply any theme. Customization is similar to that in miui without any lag so far.
AWESOME themes....

The SD card memory is shown as the internal memory in this ROM.
So then can you repartition the actual internal memory, so that you'll have as much memory as possible to install your apps?
Themes is not working for me, even i tried first default theme then changed to gleam, then tried others but th e y not changed.
Only themes working is default and g leam. Please help.
