Lenovo A7600 Rom - Lollipop

Would be very grateful for a link for Lenovo A7600 Rom for Lollipop O/S. A link other than that posted in 3 parts on a spam site.
Thanks

Ive just picked up one of these tablets and managed to root it and install custom revcovery.
To be honest I think there are zero custom ROM for this device and the supposed Lollipop ROM on those spam sites are bound to be a load of virus. I have seem three or four such 3 part download sites all of which are hidden behind a survey. All the comments on the sites are exactly the same but are posted by different people depending what site you look at which indicates they can't be trusted.
I have tweeted Lenovo to see if they plan a Lollipop update but no reply yet.
I think we need to either need to learn how to port or find a dev that can do it

Really nice to see your response, would you be kind enough to inbox me with your custom recovery. I really need to even get the stock rom to reflash if you could help. Thanks so much for replying and if we can get someone interested in porting to LP i would happy to contribute.

There isn't a Lollipop ROM yet for A7600f. It is possible to root and get custom recovery installed but as far as I can tell there is no official lollipop update or custom ROM development at all

Legit?

I checked the link and it is for the S8 smartphone which also as model number A7600. If you have that smartphone you test it at your own risk but if you are talking about a rom for A7600F tablet it won't be compatible.
As Lenovo don't seem to be official updating the A7600F tablet im guessing we need a custom rom. Unfortunately I don't think it's that popular a tablet so won't pull in developers and regrettably I'm not skilled enough to even know where to start.

I received the s8 a7600 with android 5.0 - it looks like that OS is just installed by seller, with multiple application that are a huge adware/spam generators. I tried to remove all (root/remove apps), but it destroys a little the functionality (dialer has opacity - not so easy to find what is going on, camera not working at all). But generally works. If anyone has skills - I am sure it can be easy fixed (for example install 3rdparty dialer - but that one from lenovo is pretty fine). But I think I will update phone with stock ROM, but I need to find how to do that safely and be sure I can back to the actual software...

A bit of a necro here ...
Yep, it is a long-winded guide. I wrote everything as best I could just in case.
I'd be surprised if more than 5 people are still looking to root this device. But for those folks, I updated the guide tonight.
I hadn't used the tablet much until this past week, my phone was doing better and I was only using the tablet for streaming videos as a portable TV. However my phone died and I finally got around to re-rooting the tablet (I has lost root after applying an OTA update about a year ago).
And no, there are not any custom ROMs ... no Lollipop ... no Marshmallow ... never Nougat ... for this tablet. This guide is PURELY for getting root on 4.4.
That said, here is the short version ... this MAY work on a never-rooted A10 A7600F ... it may only work to REFRESH the root. I have no good way of knowing as there isn't a chance in hell I'm going to revert everything to stock to find out
Glad to know at least 10 people got help from the guide.
UPDATE 9/22/2016:
Revised Steps are simple:
* Download Kingo Root (not King Root, that failed) APK version for Android.
* Run Kingo Root.
* If it fails, reboot, and try again (mine failed the first time)
* Assuming Kingo Root worked the second time (if not, see the original detailed steps below) ... DON'T REBOOT yet (when I did this, the root disappeared, so I had to run Kingo Root a 3rd time)
* Install a Root Checker and verify root access
* Install (first time) or uninstall and re-install (updating is fine if yours was out of date) SuperSU by Chainfire (other SuperSU may or may not work, Chainfire worked for me)
REBOOT
* Re-run Root Checker to verify root access (don't run Kingo Root before this) ... it should be using SuperSU to grant root, NOT Kingo
* If rooted, uninstall Kingo Root
* REBOOT
* Re-run Root Checker to make sure SuperSU continued to work after removing Kingo Root.

There are multiple "A7600" devices out there. This is specifically for the A7600F, aka the A10. Different device, ROMs not compatible with other A7600 devices. Lenovo can burn in hell both for their lack of updates as well as their naming conventions.

Hi all,
I have ported a CM13 ROM to this device to bring us to Android 6.0.1. if anyone is interested I will start a thread for and provide instructions and a link later today.

Fantastic, thank you very much, but I have a question, if i have installed the corean rom stock (flashing the KDZ file with lg flash tool) and not this, is there a Root method?

I don't know, maybe you can root with the flex 2 method. BTW if you have the newer bootloader you can't install twrp or any custom kernel

Your best option is probably to use the LG flashtool 2014 and flash the old 4.2.2. KDZ
Then your'e back on the old 100% stock LG rom .
Root with towelroot and install TWRP (latest TWRP does not seem to work with flashify, use terminal commands instead)
After that you can use TWRP to flash the lollipop V50030a zip, and that way you keep both root and custom recovery.

Hi, and first of all many thanks for this rom !
However, like in 4.4 Kitkat, I still have the SD card unmounted issue sometimes, and gamma is only at 1.8. What can I do about these problems ? Do I have to flash something in particular ?
For information, my tablet had this rom installed before : http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/development/rom-android-5-0-lollipop-lrx21m-t2941207/page7
And I made a full clean before installing the new rom...did I missed something ?

camera
The camera-problem is fixed. Finally !!
Camera does not work on other android 5. Only on this it works
Yes !! thank you very much for all the work.

Thank you very much for this rom, but I have a question pus install updates lg to be modified recovey TWRP 2.8.6.0

screen brightness
Anyone noticed that screen is very bright even on 0% ? (too bright for me) or maybe i did something wrong ?

Few questions
Hello and thanks for working on our device. I have few questions. Are there any screen shots? Should I expect any random reboot or it is really and completely stock!? Are there anything good left out? For instance the good automatic brightness or the knocking ability to turn screen on or off.
Others who installed this rom also feel free to answer please. I appreciate it

It's complete. The whole LG crap is there. It's what you get when you get the official update. I had no reboot in the 5 hours before I went back to aosp.

hey guys...
how run this relase? there are any bugs?

Hi, thx for your work! The rom is running really great.
Any plan to include mod multiwindow for all apps?
I have notice that in quick remote we have lost a lot of type of device. Is it possible to port an other quick remote more complete?

How it compares to aosp ROM? Faster? Some unique featues? Besides lg crap?

There is any solution to the unexpected remove of sd card issue?

Update to 30A from stock
Hello
Using a stock unrooted unmodified version of kitkat on my gpad and have few questions:
I've noticed the lollipop rom comes to around 1.1 gb. Will the OTA too be of the same size?
I've seen instructions that this rom can be dirty flashed over the stock rom. Does this mean I download and save the new rom locally in the tab, go to stock recovery and flash the new rom directly from recovery? Just like that?
Oh and has anyone got the OTA at all?
Edit: anyone using international version of the g pad...
Thanks

After 2 weeks using this ROM, I uninstalled it because gamma was too low and videos were quite sluggish. That's too bad because battery management is far better than CM 11.2 based ROMs (especially while tablet is not in use), and LG's interface is interesting...but it's not designed for everyday use. At least not yet.

Error Loki-fying
I get this error while flashing this rom via CWM --> Error loki-fying boot image, what am i doing wrong?

petition
Hello Skin1980. I respect your work works very well for me. I need your help and understanding. You can do the same for LG GPAD 8.0 v490 V49020a_00? I can not install this device and root. Please help me.

Hi I have a weird issue, my wifi disconnects constantly every time the tablet is on deep sleep mode or downloading something. It's annoying especially for downloads. I already checked my wifi settings and they are set at "Always on" but still. Anybody else have this issues? BTW I dirty flash it over 4.4.2 maybe with a clean flash it get fixed

[Q] Step by step guide for stock Lollipop on G3?

Hi,
Absolute complete newbie here when it comes to any type of fiddling with Android. I have no idea where to start.
I used to have a Nexus 5, I loved the stock experience. I now have an LG G3 D855. LG's version of Lillipop is fine but it's no where near as good as stock.
I know the G3 can have stock lollipop put on it but I have no idea where to start. Is there a step by step guide somewhere I can use or would someone on here have the time to write one up for me? (A lot to ask, I know so I won't be offended if you say no!)
I'm not a total newbie in regards to tech. I've build PCs and all that. I've just no idea where to start with android or how to change my phone.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

Moving to Stock LP
easiest way to get to LP is by getting your current firmware from here: http://lg-firmware-rom.com/
then upgrade to that kdz from with lg flash tool 2014, from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2797190
also need LG Mobile Support tool: http://www.lg.com/au/support-mobile/lg-G3-D855-Metallic-Black​
Root & Custom Recovery
root with this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g...lipop-t3056951
then install twrp with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/apk-flash-twrp-autorec-thanks-to-t3081396
keep up to date of LP updates with http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/stock-t2961073​
i also think you have your terminologies confused; what you call 'stock' i think you mean the google nexus software or 'google edition'. 'stock' in fact refers to the firmware that LG pushes out. the other option would be 'custom', which is where you install software not made or endorsed by the phone's vendor, such as Cyanogem Mod. to install these 'custom' roms, you'll need to be rooted & have a custom recovery (twrp) installed to flash said 'custom' roms.
for me, i have stock LP and use tweaksbox, which customizes many aspects of the software. if you're interested, i can run you through on how to get it, because there are a few things you need to do.

So, first I'll quickly detail how I upgraded. Coming from Blisspop, I ran Autorec for Lollipop (linked in OP), rebooted to recovery, wiped flashed the ZVG radios (linked in OP), flashed the rom, and it was good to go. No tot back to stock required for me (YMMV).

I did the exact same thing to my ls980 coming from Blisspop 2.3 and it just looped at the LG boot logo. Then I flashed the kernel to see if that would work and now I can't even get the lg flash tool to see my phone in download mode! I can't even flash back to stock! Before that I tried to restore my my twrp backups but none of them are working now. Kinda pissed, not blaming anybody. I just wish sometimes things weren't explained in such a bleak manner. The more specifications the better. In other words, depending on which version of Blisspop and what phone model you're using....this might now work for everybody.

It's all good on my end. For some reason the laptop that I only use for flashing my phone to stock was set to the wrong com port. I flashed to stock, upgraded to ZVG, rooted, used AutoRec Lollipop, wiped everything except internal memory, flashed the rom, waited a little bit for the LG logo to disappear and everything has been smooth ever since. It's a nice, minimalistic, clean rom. Indeed worth the trouble, good work. One question? How can I get a menu button in the navigation bar in this rom? Is it there and I just can't find it?

First question, did you put the phone to cloudy 3g 2.1? It did you buy it that way?
Which service provider or carrier are you on? Sprint or someone else?
These are important as stock will only allow sprint to work.

[Q] Anyone with Xposed working on G4?

I'm about to buy the international version of LG G4. And wondering if anyone has had any success with installing Xposed with no issues.
Also would appreciate if anyone can please direct me for the most safe steps to root the G4
Thanks in advance :good:

i got bootloop with xposed.
there is good rooting guides if you look in g4 threads.
Sent from my unlocked and rooted LG-H815

Too bad :crying:
I'm kinda obsessed using xposed & GravityBox, extremely looking forward to get xposed work on LG G4
If anyone knows the trick, please keep us posted .. and I will .. :good:

From what I recall back when I was running GravityBox on my Nexus devices, it is only supported on Nexus and AOSP-based roms. Pretty sure even if we get Xposed working on the G4, you won't be able to use GravityBox on the stock LG ROM.

Not sure if it would matter as far as this case goes, but I was able to run GravityBox on my Galaxy Note Edge (which was on a modified stock TW rom, so no AOSP-Base), Not sure why it would run on TW and not UX.....but then again, who knows....I guess the whole point is moot if we can not find a way to even get Xposed running in the first place.

Thanks for your reply. I was reading almost all threads about rooting the G4, however, haven't yet found anything about rooting version H818. Please let me know if you have any idea about a successful rooting method for H818.
Thanks in advance ,, :good:

As you know, you must unlock your boot loader before you can root your G4. Mine is the international or EU model H815 unlocked and rooted back in May. Take heart. It is easy. Key points are: a visit to the LG support site. Then can make your way to the Developer section and register to receive the bootloader unlock code. LG will try three times to dissuade you but will in the end email you the code. Once done the process is "irreversible" and will always show bootloader ulocked (on the boot screen). LG say they have listened to customers (a dig at Sammy and the i-sheep) and have started to roll out the unlock code globally. Yours may be listed already, if not it soon will be. It's been a month now so register / monitor the site. Once you unlock, you'll find step by step method of rooting your G4 here on xda. I posted one myself but thread was closed as there is one there already. Your next query will probably be a lean deodexed ROM or to install Xposed. Sadly, no news on either of those for the G4. Hopefully a bright spark will crack those soon.

That's not accurate, you don't need to unlock the bootloader to root the device. There is root available for most variants in the dev section and none of them save the 815EU and H811 (TMo) variant have an unlocked bootloader available. The H815 you have to get unlocked via the LG support site as you mentioned and the H811 is unlocked by default from TMo.

From what I recall back when I was running GravityBox on my Nexus devices, it is only supported on Nexus and AOSP-based roms. Pretty sure even if we get Xposed working on the G4, you won't be able to use GravityBox on the stock LG ROM.

On the G3 we had a module called G3 Tweaksbox which did a lot of the same things as GravityBox, and more, specifically designed for the G3. We can hope the same happens with the G4!

Long live XPOSED and G3 (G4) Tweaksbox!
