Here you'll find the latest version for our K910. At this moment VIBEUI_V2.0_1441_7.2.1_DEV_K910 it's the latest
All tools above work with this version
Question: What are the differencies between K910 and K910e?
Answer: Lenovo K910e VIBE Z, this is a little different from Lenovo K910 VIBE Z, because it's certified by Chinese Authorities in China. It's CDMA version. Therefore, the design and specs are almost similar to those of Lenovo Vibe Z K910. This smartphone (K910e) supports 3G:CDMA EVDO 800/1900MHz, and Lenovo VIBE Z K910 supports the all bands like 3G: WCDMA 850/900/1700/1900/2100MHz

corion said:
Bien, primero de todo me gustaría dar las gracias a seergio por darme un rayito de esperanza. Él fue quien me comentó la existencia de la herramienta QPST (Qualcomm Product Support Tool). También a Stack de http://lefenbbs.lenovo.com/, a oscarxvita de http://forums.wpcentral.com/ y a otros tantos que no recuerdo, porque tras leerme sus tutoriales, tras tener un batiburrillo de ideas y muchas pruebas, he conseguido que mi K910 vuelva a la vida.
Decir que mi móvil estaba totalmente brickeado, no encendía, no arrancaba en recovery, ni en bootloader, ni cargaba.
======= PREPARACIÓN ==================
Para traer de vuelta a la vida a nuestro querido móvil vamos a utilizar la herramienta QPST (Qualcomm Product Support Tool). QPST es un conjunto de herramientas de Windows diseñado para interactuar, controlar, y testear teléfonos CDMA que lleven Qualcomm ASICs.
La herramienta QPST la podemos descargar de aquí
También necesitaremos este 7z para el flashearlo. Descargar aquí
======= COMENCEMOS ==================
Primero de todo es iniciar Windows con la opción de "Deshabilitar la comprobación de firmas de controladores digitales". Para ello cuanto iniciemos el sistema pulsamos F8 hasta que nos salga el menú de arranque de Windows, una vez dentro seleccionamos la opción que he dicho anteriormente.
Una vez iniciado Windows lo que debemos hacer es instalar la herramienta QPST, junto con QPST se instalarán los drivers de Qualcomm.

Como vemos, se nos habrán instalado varias herramientas. Nosotros para lo que nos traemos entre manos solo usaremos las dos que están en un recuadro rojo. eMMC Software Download y QPST Configuration.
El siguiente paso es conectar el móvil. Para que podamos trabajar con él es necesario que se conecte en modo download, para ello, pulsamos la tecla de volumen - y lo conectamos al pc. En el caso de que en el teléfono no se encienda el LED azul y el pc no detecte ningún dispositivo, hay que quitarle la batería y conectarlo sin ella. Aquí tenemos un vídeo de como quitar la tapa trasera.
Cuando conectemos el teléfono, si tenemos correctamente instalados los drivers de Qualcomm, nos debería de aparecer un nuevo dispositivo tal que así:
Si nos sale un dispositivo con un signo de admiración y llamado QHSUSB_DLOAD o QHSUSB_BULK, entonces debemos de indicarle a Windows que drivers instalar. Para ello ya sabéis, botón derecho sobre el dispositivo, Actualizar software del controlador --> Buscar software de controlador en el equipo, y le indicamos que busque dentro de la carpeta drivers, que está dentro de la carpeta QPST_K910, donde estaba el instalador del programa.
El siguiente paso es descomprimir el archivo 7z.
Cuando lo hayamos descomprimido, recomiendo cortar todo lo que hay dentro, crear una carpeta llamada bin en la raíz de alguno de nuestros discos duros, y pegar todo allí.
Seguidamente buscamos un archivo llamado flash_local.xml y lo abrimos para su edición.
La ruta que está señalada debemos de modificarla y poner la ruta donde tengamos los archivos que hemos descomprimido del arhcivo 7z. Por eso decía de ponerlo dentro de una carpeta llamada bin, en la raíz del disco duro, para que solo haya que cambiar la letra de la unidad. Bueno, pues una vez cambiada la ruta guardamos y cerramos.
Ahora toca trabajar con QPST . (Siempre que ejecutemos alguna de sus herramientas, lo debemos hacer con permisos de administrador).
1.- Ejecutamos QPST Configuration. Si todo ha ido bien nos debería de aparecer nuestro teléfono.
2.- Ejecutamos eMMC Software Download y hacemos lo siguiente:
Paso 1: En Sahara XML file, ponemos la ruta donde está el archivo XML que editamos anteriormente.
Paso 2: En el campo de Flash Programmer file name ponemos MPRG8974.mbn
Paso 3: En el campo de Boot Image ponemos 8974_msimage.mbn
Paso 4: Pulsamos en Load XML def... y seleccionamos el archivo rawprogram0.xml
Paso 5: Pulsamos en Load patch def... y seleccionamos el archivo patch0.xml
Paso 6: Desmarcamos la casilla Program MMC device
Paso 7: Pulsamos en Download y esperamos que acabe el proceso. Posiblemente, después del paso 7, nos saldrá uno o varios mensajes diciendo que se han detectado unos discos duros, que los formateemos para usarlos. DEBEMOS PULSAR EN CANCELAR.
Paso 8: Desmarcamos la casilla Programm Boot Loaders
Paso 9: Marcamos Program MMC device.
Paso 10: Seleccionamos nuestro teléfono de entre los dispositivos que aparezcan (los otros deben de ser el/los discos duros que tengamos).
Paso 11: Pulsamos en Download.
Cuando acabe el proceso desconectamos el móvil del ordenador, le metemos la batería e intentamos iniciarlo.
Espero que os sirva de ayuda.
Cualquier problema id posteando e intentaré ayudaros en lo que buenamente pueda.

Apps You Can Freeze / Delete
I recomend a backup first in case you want something back
For obvious reasons i recomend freeze them first and only after you make sure everything works delete.
There are a few apps that despite they could be deleted without affectinf the system they afect others (i.e. browser makes some apps fail like play google).

You'll receive and be able to install OTA updates if the rom you're using is an "original" one.
If your rom was a developed one by someone you can't.
Doesn't have to do with the fact your phone is rooted or not.
I was able to do an OTA upgrade on my phone and it was rooted.
Anyway I think that RootGenious can unroot. Don't remember and I can't confirm atm.
Edit: witch version you have? Can you link it?

Don't believe that's chinese apps had any influence anyway, this time in order to have the latest rom follow this:
Install Rom from here [1437 is the latest atm for K910 witch is diferent of K910e]
Root your device [follow the steps from 1st post]
Install GMS Tools [follow the steps from 1st post]
Instal TWRP [follow the steps from 1st post]
1st freeze the apps you want and only then after confirm everything works at lest for 1 day you can delete the freezed apps.
note: Your problems with OTA updates may came from the deleted files
Good luck

That may be for 2 reasons as far as i am aware.
1. despite there's a new camere version (V.3.6.7) i might be incompatible with your version of VibeUI (is it 1.0_1407?!?! that's old)
2. Titanium Backup it's a great program but it's know for some years (at least 4) that some systenm apps may fail. Not sure if the programers had solved this in the last years since i've been out of xda for 2 years.
3. You may try to solve that this way:
Install any root explorer from market (i.e. Es File Explorer)
Go to settings > root > give permission > root again and in the pop up window choose RW for both
Go to system > app and rename SCG_arm_fhd_pro_sus.apk to SCG_arm_fhd_pro_sus.apk.bk
Make a copy of com-lenovo.sgc-1.apk to your sdcard (on data > app)
delete the file from data > app
Go to the file you just copied on sdcard and move it to system > app
Long press and choose permissions.
Check all the boxes available and reboot
See if this work if not an upgrade for the last VibeUI will do.
Hope it helps and you've understand :laugh:

DEAD K910
Good day, please accept my apologies if this is posted in the wrong area of the forum. I have a Lenovo K910 dual SIMM unit from China. One of our employees (we sell these devices) was attempting to return the unit to factory default and has managed to completely destroy the unit. It will not show any display and will not vibrate when switched on. All that happens is the red LED will flash almost every second when plugged into a PC. The device will only show up as a fastboot device with the device listed as 'bf2b867 fastboot'. I have tried loading several different QPST drivers to try work with the QPST tools but to no avail.
Thanks for your time Any help would be most appreciated.

Hi there
First of all don worry about posting here. You're at the right place.
OK, regarding your question, i can affirm by my own experience, that the phone isn't dead. I'ts almost but it isn't
Latter i will write a more detail step-by-step but for now i think this will do.
By your explanation, you must remove your battery and keep it that way. If you don't know how check this video. I had to do that
Read next post
1. It's better if you work on a complete clean PC. This was the only way i'be been able to recover mine after ONE MONTH!!! I use Win8.1 and just installed the updates from microsoft.
2. Download all the files posted on 1st post in the "Tools to Recover a Bricked Phone" section
3. Download QPST file from here. This is the original Lenovo files to restore
4. Install QPST and then rebbot with "Disable signature verification of digital controllers" checked
5. Open Device Manager
6. Connect your phone to PC through a USB cable pressing VOL-. I recommend that you use and old USB extension cable. We want this to slow down the information between phone and PC and COM port doesn't disapear in a blink of an eye.
--- If VOL- doesn't work try several combinations, like VOL+/USB cable or VOL-/VOL+/USB ---
7. By this time your PC began searching for the correct drivers. If everything went ok, device manager will see android phone as QHSUSB_DLOAD or QHSUSB_BULK
8. Install the drivers manually from the drivers folder you've just downloaded (Install accordly to your OS version)
9. Install Lenovo drivers
10. Reboot as in step 4
--- Now it's when the real work begin ---
11. Open Device Manager and QPST Configuration (as administrator) from the instaled folder
12. Connect your phone through USB extention cable again and check if Device manager are ok (Something like Qualcoom_something) and if QPST Configuration starts something. If so, you're good to go.
Now probably this is the part when you ask 700€ on your customer or send the phone back to repair
This is a trial and error work. COM port will only be visible for a breef momment. The time you pressed ENTER key is the real key to manage go further
Make sure that flash_local.xml had the right path, like:
Step 1: Sahara XML file, put the path where the XML file is edited above.
Step 2: In the field of Flash Programmer put MPRG8974.mbn
Step 3: In the field Boot Image put 8974_msimage.mbn
Step 4: Then hit def XML Load and select the file rawprogram0.xml
Step 5: Then hit def patch Load and select the file patch0.xml
Step 6: Program uncheck the box MMC device
Step 7: Then hit Download and hope to finish the process. Possibly, after step 7, we will get one or more messages saying that some hard drives have been detected, the formateemos to use. MUST CLICK CANCEL.
Step 8: Uncheck the box Boot Loaders Programm
Step 9: Mark Program MMC device.
Step 10: Select your phone from the devices that appear (the other must be / have hard drives).
Step 11: Then hit Download.
When the process ended, Insert the battery and try to start it but keep the phone connected to PC this is important because your battery is completely dead atm.
I hope this will help you.
Like i said i've been one month without my phone but after i decided to format all my driver and install Win from scratch this will only take me half an hour till i get the DW mode.
Good luck:good:

Thanks for your cooperation, but excuse me I am new with android could you check the following steps if these are ok or there is something missing:
1. I rooted my phone with RootGenius
2. I installed TWRP and I checked it works well
3. I downloaded the latest ROM VibeUi_V2.0_1437_K910 as my phone version K910
4. I should placed the new rom in my "internal memory" on root --- I've no external SD slot ---
5. I should enter TWRP by rebooting phone and keeping 2 volume buttons pressed.
6. Should I backup something ????
7. On TWRP Wipe >> Swipe to factory reset
8. On TWRP Install >> Select the new ROM from the internal memory ????
9. On TWRP Wipe >> Advanced Wipe >> select Cache & Dalvik Cache >> Swipe to Wipe
10. Reboot
11. Install GMS Tools then Google Play
==> I don't know is the new software rooted or not? Can I delete Chinese app without rooting?
==> What is the need of "Tools to Recover a Bricked Phone" as shown in above instruction?
sorry for long questions and sorry for my language "from Egypt"
but I have to make sure that I'll follow the right steps first.
Thanks alot

Instructions:
Pre-requisites: unlocked bootloader, latest TWRP recovery!
1. Download ROM, Gapps (PA is my recomend), latest SuperSU and put it on the phone's SD card (or Iinternal storage).
2. Boot into TWRP recovery.
3. Coming from a KitKat ROM?
* Perform a data, system, cache, dalvik-cache, internal storage using TWRP. If you're upgrading from ProuDroud ROM, proceed to dirty flash (nandroid backup before flashing is a good idea)
3./b Coming from Lollipop ROM?
* * Perform a data, system, cache, dalvik-cache using TWRP. If you're upgrading from ProuDroud ROM, proceed to dirty flash (nandroid backup before flashing is a good idea)
4. Flash ROM, Kernel (Optional), GApps, SuperSU
5. Reboot and enjoy!

You can use any GApps you want to as they're universal, I personally recommend PA's GApps. Do not report any Google-related problems if you're not using the recommended GApps.
You must flash SuperSU otherwise you will not have root access!

Well , I tested the xt1069 , all worked so far . The only bug I can realtar is the audio fix it stopped , and the cyanogemod themes engine that down the issues and does not install the rom . The battery consumption this good ram . The only thing that stopped so far was the audio fix

Olá gostaria de perguntar uma coisa!! Houve um tempo que eu desbloquiei o bootloader do meu moto e4 xt1763 fiz root e fiquei usando por um tempo,. Ai enjoei e reinstalei a ROM stock de novo,. Eu queria saber se ao reinstalar a rom stock o bootloader bloqueia ou não?? Lembrando que toda vez que eu ligo ele, aparece uma msg "device unlocked"
Sim, meu amigo, tem como sim você instala a rom stock sim, o bootloader bloquear sim, caso queira desbloquear você vai ter que fazer os procedimentos de desbloqueo de novo,

I know there are a lot of power issues in v4.0. I was re working woods kernel since this last week I was able to make huge changes. To make it stable and smooth. Ill hope to release a new version with more new features and some features are removed. I'll hope you will enjoy it. Thanks

first thank you for your package, i replaced the apk with a newer one and now i am able to use gboard on my custom rom on the work profile (our it has restricted any other store apps except the company ones...)
until here everything is fine.
but can we also make this system app update able from the play store?
it would be tedious to manually removing this package from magisk -> reboot -> update package -> install from magisk -> reboot again
every month, b/c google is updating the application?
gboard is now installed as system app but play store is not detecting it, and if i try to install it from play store it fails with an unknown error (that maybe is obvious)
i tried to comment out the detach commands in the install.sh file because i thought this was preventing the detection, but that did not help
or maybe i should try to use another approach and try the addon package like from FlameGApps gboard that maybe is update able? I mean i dont know if this will result in app crashes if my custom rom is installed with MindTheGApps and now i am trying to add another app from another GApps package...?
Guys, I DID IT !!!!
Working Samsung A52s (SM-A528B/DS) with Unlocked Bootloader, Rooted (Magisk), Passing SafetyNet and WORKING CAMERA (yaaay).
Problem is that I have no idea how I did it, because it was 3 days of flashing, patching, reinstalling and phone bricking too (unfortunately).
I am attaching a screenshot I did with the phone while writing this post in Word. Someone wanted screenshots in split screen as a proof so.. boom, here ya go.
I have a lot of pictures that I made in last 3 days, so I will try to write some more detailed instructions soon. But now at least try this:
This should work for anyone, even people without working camera after unlocking bootloader
1. Download latest Firmware and Odin from samfw.com (don’t know why but these was only one that worked for me, bricked my phone earlier with different fw)
2. Unpack downloaded firmware and copy AP to a phone with Magisk 24.1
3. Use Magisk app to patch the AP file and download it back to PC
4. Unlock bootloader (first in developer settings, then in the download mode)
5. Reboot
6. Go to Download mode (You should see OEM: OFF (U))
7. Flash with Odin all the Firmware files you downloaded, but to AP put the patched file
8. Reboot
9. Go to magisk, do what he wants, reboot, in settings activate seamless host, activate Zygisk, reboot, download and install module kdrag0n’s safetynet-fix v2.2.1 (https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix/releases)
10. reboot
11. yaaay
UPDATE: Ok, It seems that the Camera software will fail after reboot once. When you close it and open it again, it works.
CONFIRMED: I had to reflash after trying some TWRP and now I can confirm that patching the "safetynet-fix v2.2.1" will allow you to use the camera after one run. The Samsung Cam App will fail on the first run, so when you kill it in the app switcher and run again, it works in a normal way (switching cameras, front/back and everyhing).

Ok, I feel happy for you you succeeded to root your phone with your camera working and you pass the SafetyNet test by activating Zygist with safetynet-fix v2.2.1, but what have you done differently from my guide as you as you just got updated information from my thread ?
You passed SafetyNet test and so what next ???
Have you got Samsung Secure Folder, Samsung Health or Samsung Pay working or such other protected Samsung apps ???
Are you getting Xprivacylua or AfWall+ (may be this one but not sure) working ???
Firefds kit [R] is not yet update to be compatible with Android 12, so it only partially works...
On my Galaxy Note 9, I didn't pass SafetyNet test, but Samsung Secure Folder, Google pay, Samsung Health are fully working... ^^
Samsung Pay is working but only with a Samsung Watch...
With another configuration I passed SafetyNet test but all above apps aren't working at all !!! ^^
I don't mind you created another thread and another guide on how to root the A528B but what is the interest if you don't explain how you improved mine and what new features you got ???

forum.xda-developers.com
As I was myself trying to use Zygist with SafetyNet 2.2.1 version even though I didn't mention it explicitely as Safetynet 2.2.1 is only working with Zygist ?
"Ok, nice try mate but Zygisk-LSPosed is even worse !!!
It broke FoxMagiskModuleManager when Zygisk-LSPosed has very poor modules list. It broke AfWall+ and it partially broke Firefds kit and no progress at all with Samsung apps !!!"
Does this still apply ?

yes as far as lsposed goes, never used the fox app or afwall so can't say. no gravity box for android 12 yet
Arobase40 said:
So that means that since my post #218 no one with failed camera has installed SafetyNet Fix 2.2.1 with Zygist and no one has checked if that has an impact on the camera, and thus no report to me ??? lol
I just remind you that my camera has always been working so I couldn't expected any changes on this aspect... ^^
Finally, if my guide offered "limited root", this one offers even more limited one as with the exception of AdAway what this root stands for if you can't at least protect your privacy ???

you are lucky enough to be in a region that allows the camera to function while boot loader is unlocked
One thing I've noticed, after a restart the camera fails until closing it and killing the app in recent apps, then it works.

thank you very much )))) I will try this weekend!
Guys, can anybody explain to me , why Samsung is apparently making it so hard for the customers to root their devices? Is it a problem with Samsung or with Magisk, or both?
Not being able to root via Magisk is a real dealbreaker to this otherwise well-specced phone (at least it is to me!).
Going to try this method with Android 11 using Magisk 24.3 and safety net 2.2.1 which I hope will allow the camera to work also.
Edit: It works with android 11.
Arobase40 said:
Why wouldn't it work with Android 11 as it is not related ???

Samsung A52s (SM-A528B/DS) en funcionamiento con cargador de arranque desbloqueado, rooteado (Magisk), pasando SafetyNet y CÁMARA DE TRABAJO (yaaay).
El problema es que no tengo idea de cómo lo hice, porque fueron 3 días de flashear, parchear, reinstalar y bloquear el teléfono también (desafortunadamente).
Adjunto una captura de pantalla que hice con el teléfono mientras escribía esta publicación en Word. Alguien quería capturas de pantalla en pantalla dividida como prueba, así que... boom, aquí tienes.
Tengo muchas fotos que hice en los últimos 3 días, así que intentaré escribir algunas instrucciones más detalladas pronto. Pero ahora al menos prueba esto:
Esto debería funcionar para cualquier persona, incluso para las personas que no tendrán una cámara en funcionamiento después de desbloquear el gestor de arranque.
1. Descargue el último firmware y Odin de samfw.com (no sé por qué, pero estos fueron solo uno que se cubrieron para mí, bloquearon mi teléfono antes con un firmware diferente)
2. Descomprima el firmware descargado y copie AP a un teléfono con Magisk 24.1
3. Use la aplicación Magisk para parchear el archivo AP y descárguelo nuevamente a la PC
4. Desbloquee el cargador de arranque (primero en la configuración del desarrollador, luego en el modo de descarga)
5. Reiniciar
6. Vaya al modo de descarga (debería ver OEM: APAGADO (U))
7. Flashee con Odin todos los archivos de Firmware que descargó, pero a AP puso el archivo parcheado
8. Reiniciar
9. Vaya a magisk, haga lo que quiera, reinicie, en la configuración active el host integrado, active Zygisk, reinicie, descargue e instale el módulo kdrag0n's safetynet-fix v2.2.1 ( https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet -fix/ lanzamientos )
10. reiniciar
11. siiii
ACTUALIZACIÓN: Ok, parece que el software de la cámara fallará después de reiniciar una vez. Cuando lo cierras y lo abres de nuevo, funciona.
CONFIRMADO: Tuve que volver a flashear después de probar TWRP y ahora puedo confirmar que parchear "safetynet-fix v2.2.1" te permitirá usar la cámara después de una ejecución. La aplicación Samsung Cam fallará en la primera ejecución, por lo que cuando la elimine en el conmutador de aplicaciones y vuelva a ejecutarla, funcionará de manera normal (cambiando de cámara, frontal/trasera y todo).

EL DESBLOQUEO DE ARRANQUE ES ANTES O DESPUES DE PARCHEAR EL AP
Do I really need to patch whole AP?
Tried with only boot, vbmeta, vendor and dtbo, but bootloop was the only result.

Well then, there you go. You got bootloop for not following the instructions
Did i understand right?
2. Unpack downloaded firmware and copy AP to a phone with Magisk 24.1
3. Use Magisk app to patch the AP file and download it back to PC

These steps are requiring a mobile with Magisk installed on it to patch the AP?
If yes, is there any other option, if i have only a A52s 5G ?

You can install the Magisk app without being rooted. It's an app like any other app, you simply won't have root access. So install it on your A52s 5G and patch your files with it.
Guys can someone remind me what i need to do to make smartview working? I need to hide something from root?

Well, I added these 2 lines:
wlan.wfd.hdcp=disable
wifi.interface=wlan0
On the following files:
product/etc/build.prop
system/build.prop
system/system_ext/etc/build.prop
vendor/build.prop
vendor/default.prop
I'm pretty sure not all of them are needed but I'm too lazy to figure out which prop file really needs it lmao if I had to take a guess I'd say either vendor build.prop or default.prop, who knows.
