Hello, The rear camera of my lenovo doesn't work. It is model 2014 and after downgrade from kit-kat it just stops. I saw in some forums, that I have to change the apk file for the camera, but can't do it. Nothing happens when I install it normaly. Some say, that it has to be instalet via total comander or recovery consol. But I don't know how to do that. Any ideas?

Hi. Your phone is made after 07.2014. It is a new hardware for camera. Try to study the forum in development area and see what firmware is compatibile for your phone.
There are some patches for this problem.
Yes, it's rooted. The downgrade was hard at first, because I used flash tool, that is not wright and the phone won't start. But when I found the wright version, it was wasy.
Camera works with kit-kat, but I don't want to use it, so I have to find something older to use.

You cannot install from TWRP ? What error do you have ?
Nothing. Just "instalation aborted". I don't think that I had success to install anything using recovery.

What kind of recovery you have?
It is strange, because this zip files are for recovery.
Sent from my Lenovo P780
I don't kno how to see which type of recovery I have. But I think, that there is a problem with it. As I sad, nothing installs via this method.
I think, that the recovery comes with row s136. I installed some type of CMD recovery ver. 6, but after I try to use it, the second time the phone brokes and it won't star. So I have to flash again with row s136. Maybe I have to change the recovery with some other?

TWRP is looking like this picture.
Do you have recovery like this ?
No. Mine was with the android robot on his back. I installed TWRP, than use it to install the fix file. Everything looks ok. After that I have message in the consol, that my phone wasn't rooted and if I want to root it. I swipe for yes, reboot and now it freeses on the lenovo logo... I have to flash again.
Second attepmt - the same. Something makes the phone to stop working, after I use recovery.
On the 3-4 attept I succeed to install some things, including CameraFixFull 15 - 08.2014 phones.zip - [Click for QR Code] , but nothing changes. I think, that maybe the recovery is not rigth? It says, that the instalation is successifull, but nothing appears to be changed.
I have similiar problem but after installing patches, the phone is becoming bricked and I had to restore beckup system... Any other ideas. My OS is Life 0.7

Try to flash stock KitKat firmware. After flash see if the camera is working. If not... my opinion is that you have on big hardware problem.

No ,i have`nt try any customize ROM.I just Rooted my phone with SuperOneClick.
If anyone is interested, on cacofonix3's request I have build an *experimental* and *untested* recovery and ROM for the A800 based on the P700i_ROW_S107
(the S107 hints it is probably pretty much the same as the Russian one mentioned above)
Warning:
- I do not have this phone, so I am not sure if it is a working ROM, I cannot test myself. It either works, or it does not.
- If you never done flashing before, don't try this, leave it to the experienced people to test first.
- Make sure you have the original ROM to go back to, like this one.
- Never flash preloader / uboot / mbr / ebr
- A800 has different partition table. Never use a scatter file for a different ROM.
Advise:
- First flash the recovery using the v3.1238 flash tool, and see if that works
- Put the ROM on the SD card
- Next boot into recovery and use that to flash the ROM.
- Also advised to wipe cache and data after flashing
- I do not have this phone, so I am not sure if it is a working ROM, I cannot test myself
Info:
The ROM is essentially the one described here, but with a800 kernel/modules/firmware and also a v0.01 marker to clearly indicate 'beta'.
The A800 is pretty similar as the P700i, except higher resolution, one button less, uses the MT6577T rather than MT6577, and I suspect uses the MT6628 rather than MT6620 radio subdie. As a result, when flashing this ROM, one of the following may happen:
- It does not work at all : solution flash factory ROM again
- GSM may not work : solution flash factory ROM again. OR: The GPS may work and also pick up Galileo...
- GPS/Wifi/BT may not work : we may work around this by swapping out some libraries. Or: The GPS may work and also pick up Galileo...
- Icons may appear smaller : should be OK, as it is a bigger schreen.
- 4th button is missing: Use buttonsavior as workaround for the recent apps button.
ROM and recovery can be downloaded here. Flash tool and USB driver from here
Ok, given that i receive no feedback, neither positive nor negative, but it is a rather untested and experimental ROM, I removed the download again.

Getting SP flash tool error 8038.
You will have to show some screen shots to show exactly what you are doing, and where you get the error. Also, which version of the flash tool are you using.
Hey cybermaus,
I accidentally uninstalled all of apk in the internal storage of this phone, using wondershare mobile go, how can i reflash everything to stock settings? i can't install the settings.apk =(

Not sure what you mean with 'flash tool drivers': the VCOM drivers are the ones you need. Also I know nothing about missing DLL.
hey thanks cybermaus i did it! :laugh: just followed your blog, but the rom is so slow the i dowloaded the A800_RUS_S107, what other roms can i use?
I cant reinstall the official ROM, so then ROOT and then install cybermaus' ROM.
The factory ROM is dead. I can't see the apps, anything, only system settings. When I made a factory reset it says the following:

Hello XDA members,
I was hoping somebody would help me out, I'm fairly new when it comes to installing custom roms so I require your patience. I don't know how to install a custom rom onto my Bell Atrix HD MB886, everytime I try it says abortion failed, what can I do to fix this. I have wiped data and all that probably 5 times in the past week alone. I would like to know how to successfully install roms without errors. Both the times that I have done this I had my bootloader unlocked, and I had clockword recovery mod latest version 6.0.4.4. I bought an SD card today to help install the roms because otherwise I can't do it from my internal storage. I really hope somebody can help me out.

Roger

Hi there. A failed abortion certainly seems like an issue... I guess I am not totally clear on the status here. You say that you had CWM. Do you still have it? Bootloader is still unlocked? What rom are you trying to install? Are you certain it's for the Bell version and not like the AT&T one? What is the exact error message?

No I don't have it atm as I just wiped the data/cache last night but will I already have CWM, I just need to unlock the bootloader and try again...I'm trying to install this one:
Android 4.4.2 KitKat Mokee Rom, and it says the version is a nightly. Yes I'm positive it's the Bell Version as I purchased it at a Bell Store and my carrier is Bell. The error message is "Installation Aborted." It begins installing, and then halfway through I get that error message. How do I fix this?
I figured you knew what phone you had. I was wondering if you had a rom built for the Bell version vs an ATT one. But since you are using a CM based rom, it obviously doesn't matter. Curious as to why you are bothering with relocking the bootloader? But I suggest to either try a different version of the rom, or to change your recovery to one of the Philz Touch versions as that's what some of the other users in that thread for the rom for your phone were using. You can find them here:

No I was bothering to unlock it again, not lock it. Where can I find different versions for the 4.4.2 Mokee Rom? I've tried using the Philz Touch version: Motorola Atrix HD One Click Philz recovery installer and when I tried it a couple of times it said it failed to install although I'm not sure why. I came across these images the other day but how do I use the .img files on my device, as I'm not sure to proceed from here once I have them downloaded.

Okay so I'm trying it now and the program won't even open :/
Odd. I just downloaded it to test and I didn't have any issues. If you can't get the actual application / exe file to open, then just use the Main-Skip.bat. Does the same thing.
If it doesn't open still, make sure that you have your anti-virus off as sometimes those interfere with programs like this. Might also try as admin.

I don't think that is the most updated version. What's the version number of the recovery that was installed? It should be listed on the main page of it when you boot there. I was suggesting to use one of the new ones. It might have something to do with the SELinux support that KK roms need. You just have to put the img file in the tools folder and rename the new one the same. But here's no other error that shows up other than Installation Aborted? I was thinking usually it would have an error code or some other message.Have you checked the md5 of the rom zip to make sure it's not corrupted (if the dev provided it)?

Pop the battery out for a bit, then pop it back in and hold Volume Down while powering up. Should get you into fastboot where you can skip to the recovery.

Oh yea, forgot you have to undo the screws on the bottom. So you scroll down to hit recovery and use the Power button to select and it doesn't do anything? That's odd.. Try and reflash the recovery since you can still get to fastboot. If that doesn't work, you're not totally screwed since you can still get to fastboot, that means you should be able to restore it to stock and start over.
Alternatively, if you have fastboot set up, you could make sure that philz touch is in the fastboot folder and use this command:
fastboot boot recovery nameofphilztouchfile.img
If you don't have fastboot, then just grab this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790 , drop the recovery img in that folder and open the CMD prompt on your computer and change directories to it and run the command.
Hey everyone, my rom port went totally wrong.
I installed the cwm recovery and could access to it by pressing Volume up + power. (installed and restored stock roms a few times before)
After installing a custom rom, the phone kept boot looping, it shows manufacturers logo, and then reboots.
I've tried any kind of key combination to access recovery, but with no luck, If i connect to the PC, it detects for a few seconds, and then goes away since it reboots, so theres no time to install its drivers.
Removed battery from phone for 1 hour and tried again, still boot looping.
Don't know what I can do anymore, what are the chances to revive the phone?
If that helps.... its a china phone, running 4.2.2, 3.4.5 kernel. Bricked when ported MIUI V5 SM-N900 V1 (yeah I know its for that specific phone, but always had in mind that I could access recovery any time I wanted to restore :/ )

Yes just fixed, had to put the IMEI that was on the back of the phone :victory:
sorry to bother you, thanks again!

That china application had a function to change IMEI, they were null as you said, and I just manually wrote in them what was in the back of the phone case :good:
Now talking about other issue, do you now if is possible to upgrade kernel versions? like 3.4.5 to 3.4.67? having a hard time to find someone confirm me this....
Only if the manufacturer put out an update. It's very difficult to update the kernel without the manufacturer releasing the source code, and they usually never do for devices like that.
EDIT: The problem is fixed, the problem was my dead SD card, as soon as I took it out and boot into TWRP the recovery has been working well. Thank you all for your help anyways.
What's going on guys, today I'm in need of some aid. Couple days ago I was trying to swap ROMs from PsyRom to FlyMeOS and when I tried to access TWRP recovery, it would get stuck on the TeamWin logo. I softbricked my phone by restoring the stock recovery and kernel (lol) and flashed the latest Fastboot ROM. Now I'm fine with MIUI8, and I flashed TRWP again (with Fastboot flash) but everytime I try to access TRWP it gives me that stuck logo or a black screen. I don't know what to do because I already tried with a rooted Dev ROM and flashify and even the TWRP Manager but I can't get anywhere. Do you know what I can do?
I've seen several TWRP versions for RN2.
Did you try with the official one?

AFAIK the bootloader is not locked.
Otherwise I think that you can't even install TWRP.
I any case, I would try with an older fastboot ROM and with the official TWRP.

I have no problem with it (MIUI8). To be honest, I don't think any of them should cause the problem that you are having. Trying to solve the problem without identifying the cause will probably prove unfruitful. How did you install the first one that you had problems with? Did it ever work at all? If so, when did it start malfunctioning?

Yes it used to work, I already tried a lot of ROMs, I had the one compatible with Android 6.0 which I flashed with TWRP itself (It worked since I flashed CM13 with it).
I don't really know when it started malfunctioning because the last time I made a backup was at least one month ago when I swapped to PsyRom (it was functioning well). But two days ago when I tried to access it to change to FlyMe it wouldn't work. Anyways I'm flashing a MIUI7 fastboot ROM to see if it works.
I'm sorry if I can't explain myself very well but I'm doing the best I can lol. Thank you for your help too.
Perhaps something messed up your file system or partitions. If all attempts don't work, then you might want to use the SP Flash Tool to flash a compatible ROM and working TWRP.

I should have a MIUI7 on my mega account, it should be the last 7 stable, saved just in case something was wrong with 8.
I can send you the link if you are still searching.
OK, I just noticed that you have solved yet.
Good, I hope that this time everything will be fine.

Hello, after one month the issue is still not fixed, the recovery still hangs. Perhaps you could send me that fastboot rom you talked about please? Thank you.
I'm going to send you the link.
In the meanwhile...reading the thread again...what is "update.zip method"?
Are you try to install TWRP from Mi recovery?
This is not going to work anymore.
You should better stay with the last ROM and flash TWRP from fastboot.
This is the recovery image: https://dl.twrp.me/hermes/twrp-3.0.2-0-hermes.img
This is the guide: https://twrp.me/devices/xiaomiredminote2.html
Just start your RN2 into fastboot (vol down+power on), run fastboot flash recovery twrp.img and finally keep pressed vol up and send fastboot reboot and wait with the key pressed until it enter TWRP.
BTW:
in the official forum there should be a thread with link to all officially released ROMs for RN2.

The problem is I already tried the fastboot method as well, and the problem is always the same, stuck TWRP logo. Even if it was a partition problem, flashing the fastboot ROM should fix it, but it didn't. I tried the SP Flash Tools method too, and the flashing methods are successful, they all Flash TWRP, but when I try to access it it's stuck. I don't know why this is happening, it used to work.
@kiko9895 Sounds like you have screwed your partitions. You will need to load a full ROM using SP Tools to correct it as this is the only way to set the partitions back at their correct memory locations. Fastboot and Recovery rewrite the partitions by name not memory location so any fault in that will never be fixed. If you have flashed an Android 6.0 based ROM or something intended for another model phone, this will definitely be the case. Anyone flashing custom ROMs should first gather the skills and tools to recover from disasters - luckily, MTK based phones are virtually unbrickable!
As far as the "official" TWRP goes, it is not official and not a good version. It is just someone who has used the TWRP build server to knock out a random version. How does that make it "official"?

Ahah I have the skills and the tools, I've been flashing ROMs for more than two years. This never happened before. If you read what I said before on this thread, you'll see that I already flashed a new ROM through SP Flash Tools. And yes I flashed a 6.0 rom before so that must be the problem, but since I already flashed a fastboot rom through SP Flash Tools I can't see where the problem is. The partitions should be fixed by now but that isn't the case.
@kiko9895 Sorry if it sounded like I was coming down hard on you. You should only need to flash a matching preloader, uboot, logo plus TWRP recovery using SP Flash Tools with the correct scatter file to get back into booting to TWRP. Any other problems can be sorted from there.
I will attach a known good scatter file because I know there are several floating around that will reverse one or two partitions on you (such as the RN3 version)

Seems like you need to install a new rom on your phone. Do you have a custom recovery? If yes, what recovery do you have?
I can give you a new rom and instructions on how to install it, but you will need CWM or TWRP for that.
Cheers,
Kuba P.

If you don't have any custom recovery then you want to flash stock rom of your android.

No matter bro I will flash with stock rom. Please tell me process and files to use. I never ever flashed before so this will be the first time for me. I will go with your process step by step. I have pc also but it will be better by my phone only.

You need to do some research before you make things worse. You will have to have a pc. Then it is a simple matter of flashing the device which will wipe it completely.

Watch these YouTube video. You get flashing procedure in SP flash tool and download link of stock rom in video description.
You need SP flash tool to flash your android.
Download from here
Sorry for saying this , but you should be aware that Rooting a device has its own ups and down/
You should have researched more and must have had a custom recovery incase things go awry.
Now that things have gone bad , the only option you have is flash a rom for your device using SP Flash Tool.
Google for your phone model and download firmware and flash the rom
If you have any trouble finding a rom or flashing it , please feel to contact me.

Make sure you have driver for your device installed properly.
