------
- full screen theme is working
alpha1
------
- initial release
here is how to flash it:

They need to release source first afaik.
Ontopic: Thanks for this man!

Doesn't work for me.
I'm getting this:
D:\MOJE\MOTO>fastboot flash recovery recovery-twrp-kamma-beta1.img
sending 'recovery' (8938 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.672s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 1.812s]
finished. total time: 2.484s
D:\MOJE\MOTO>fastboot reboot
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.000s
That means it should work, but after reboot, phone is starting system without recovery window.
What am I doing wrong?

ok, so the problem is, that the original rom have standard android functionality, that on every boot reflash recovery partition with original recovery. there are 2 possible solutions.
1. flash my deodex rom, where this is disabled
2. use adb shell to disable it, but you have to be rooted. here is command flow :
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cd /system/etc
mv install-recovery.sh install-recovery.sh.old
exit
exit
adb reboot

It works!

Great News!!! Cant wait to see what the devs have in mind and what they are able to create for this device. Full HD with the 5 inch display and capacitive buttons that don't take up any of screen real estate. I hope that a port of Paranoid Android? I think that would be so slick on the OF5, I have it on my Nexus 7 and is is super smooth. I'm pretty sure we need CM first though if I'm correct to build Paranoid Android from, correct? Also cant wait fr some custom kernels to crank this bad boy up to about 1.89GHz Quad Core and then overclock the GPU too. I think some good camera mods and tweaks will come out also, that will make this 13MP Exmor camera shine. I see a lot of modding in the future, especially after people start getting their orders from the new batch shipped, some people have said they have stared to ship the second batch already.

^^CM doesn't need to be available beforehand because Paranoid is based on AOSP, not CM.
But CM is bound to be available first because it always is

how i could restore stock rom or stock recovery?

Really nice, pls keep on.

I have TWRP Recovery ,
about 2 weeks ago and still no one single custom rom !!!!! :crying:

[ROOT]Lenovo Vibe Z (K910)

This is a build at a really early stage so take care !
Ok, so the method I propose is absolutely non intrusive. You might want to flash the recovery you'll find here-under but I personally haven't done it so feel free to go first Flashing back the original recovery shouldn't be a big deal anyway.
Prerequisite
You should have installed:
K910 ADB Driver (available on the CD that appear when you connect the device)
ADB
Fastboot
Rooting
So the method is pretty easy:
Download the latest SuperSU update.zip and put it at the root of your Internal SD Card
(Optional) Download Google Apps for Android 4.2.2 (thanks to TeamAndroid) and put it at the root of your Internal SD Card
Download the recovery.img (build 140205)
un-7zip it
Restart your device in the bootloader:
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
Boot your phone into the ClockworkMod recovery:
Code:
fastboot boot cwm_recovery_custom.img
Install zip, wipe partition, backup/restore, adb sideload, ...
Reboot
The phone is left untouched except for the zip you flashed.
Update on the 6th of February (Build 140205):
Bigger font
/sdcard mounted on the first user's internal storage (= symlink /sdcard /data/media/0)
Makes use of the latest kernel
The old recovery.img stays available.
For those who would be stuck on K910_SS_S_2_040_0039_131101, I posted the official update.zip here
How to build my own recovery
If you are curious about building the recovery, I'll post here a few tips.
First of all, you'll need a good tutorial like the one on XDA University. The steps are the following:
Prepare your OS to receive a cyanogenmod repository. I would advice an Ubuntu so you can following this guide. Note that this is for a plain Android so you need to stop following it when they issue the first repo command
Then you need to carefully read this guide on porting CyanogenMod ROM. You don't need to build the full system (which is a completely other story) but only the recovery. I prepared the vendor directory for you (base on LG Optimus and a lot of research).
The building happens according to this guide.
You could be done by now if it wasn't for the dtb. If you try to boot your recovery as is, fastboot will complain about it. You'll find other people having the same issue, just follow their solution.

Boot your phone into the ClockworkMod recovery:

Install zip, wipe partition, backup/restore, adb sideload, ...
Reboot
The phone is left untouched except for the zip you flashed.
More precisions to come in a next edit.

I have K910_SS_S_2_040_0109_131226 but it shouldn't be an issue anyway. This sounds like I uploaded the wrong recovery (I have so many) because "dtb not found" is the message you receive when, well, the DTB doesn't appear in the recovery. Adding the DTB is the very last step to build the recovery.
Try this one instead.
Just for your information, note that following the guide I mentioned earlier did work but I have to add a custom init.rc because there was no backlight on the screen.

I honestly doubt it: all the 1 click root I've seen until know are based on a bug in the backup mechanism that have been fixed for a while now. But since it seems pretty recent, anything is possible. I can't confirm since I'm rooted now
Right now with this method, and when I get my Lenovo steps that I can do?
Update first and then use this method to root?
I do not understand English, use google translate, and as I see there seems to be no problems?
Still it take at least 2 weeks to receive it and I'm sure there will be changes and improvements ...
Thanks again for sharing your experiences.
Big thanks button should be available too...
Managed to boot in cwm, root from cwm (btw very nice option ), Gapps full reinstall and finally a backup. EVRIKA! YOU DID IT ! Respect man ! permanent img flash would be next step I assume...

You're right: best method is to upgrade then root with this method. If it seems difficult to get the upgrades, I can post the zip files (it took me more than a week to get the first one).

Well, actually, there should be no problem flashing this recovery, it's just that it could break the OTA process (and that I haven't tested it myself yet)
So next step after testing is to find a way to make this menu readable. I mean, I almost need a magnifying glass to read it :laugh:
It isn't really an issue, maybe to correct the dafult push backup folder to internal sdcard clockworkmod instead of root folder (mnt...). I suppose that until seriously modded ROM's will appear it's best to mantain non flashed anyway for the OTA capability IMHO. Anyway, very nice job, put a paypal to receive some beers from us.
I still cannot install zips (SuperSU / gapps) from recovery, though recovery.img was flashed without any error. Am I missing anything?

Are you sure you are in the custom recovery? The Lenovo one look similar but doesn't have the clockwork mod logo in the background. It lets you install zip...as long as they are signed by Lenovo.

You are right, after re-flashing your recovery I was able to install SuperSU.zip, but still couldn't find it in the device.
Just to share further-
1. Titanium backup still fails to get root access
2. One root checker application says my device is rooted, but 'rescue root checker' says it is not

Good suggestions. I'll take a look.
Now that I know what it takes to build a recovery, I'll think twice before starting a project of a really modded ROM

I 've had the same behavior with the oldest ROM. This is why I provided a custom ROM with busybox installed even if I knew most people wouldn't need it. It was just impossible to install it afterwards. It might then be version related. Which version are you running?

Yoga Tab 2 Kernel Compilation

Has anyone else made any serious attempts at compiling a kernel? Prompted by doctorow's thread about the wakelock issue, I got interested in compiling a kernel so it could actually be fixed. For anyone who's tried at all, there are obviously some missing files in Lenovo's release.
I tried copying over the missing files from ASUS's Zenfone kernel release (since it uses the same SoC and their kernel had all the files that make was complaining about). Between that and commenting out some references to a nonexistent tablet_config.h header, it managed to at least finish compiling. Unfortunately I don't have a bootloader-unlocked device to test on yet, so I'm not terribly confident that it actually works.
P.S.: I'm not really sure if this belongs in the dev section or not? Sorry if it's in the wrong place, but I can't start threads there anyway at my current post count.

Interesting, I haven't even gotten that far when I tried to compile them. The sources are most likely not up to date or even representative of the actual firmware kernel. For example, when I looked at the battery driver, I noticed in the published sources, the polling interval was hard-coded in such a way that it would completely ignore the setting of the poll_interval kernel parameter. But we know that this is not true for the actual firmware which is in fact respecting the setting of said parameter.
@Grarak and me have managed to get the messy "source code" of Lenovo to build. I have additionally added some security patches and stripped some kernel modules. Since we don't want to violate the GPL like Lenovo, we have pushed the kernel to GitHub.
Bear in mind that there may be some issues, given the kernel is a work in progress. It boots on stock as well as on cm-12.1, though.

Same kernel works for both 830f and 1050f?
Could you please post a compiled kernel? (which I assume can be flashed simply via fastboot)

I was able to unlock bootloader, install TWRP and flash this kernel via fastboot on both 830F and 1050F.
It works fine (and the battery life seems better since there's no wakelock bug).
Thanks!
Looking forward to alpha-grade CM....

Using windows? paths are c:\directory\file and not c:/directory/file
I used the fastboot executable from the tethered recovery package.
Checklist:
Did you unlock bootloader? it won't boot otherwise.
Did you backup current boot partition from TWRP/CWM?
Did you boot the tablet in fastboot mode? (down+pwr)
Can fastboot detect your tablet? (fastboot devices)

Hmm, I'm getting a high battery_wake_lock (on the April OTA firmware) -- even when running this kernel!
Any idea how can this be?
Hi,
I was trying to play a little bit with kernel provided by @Olivier and @Grarak ...
1. Binary Image kernel-yt2-20160327.img boots up fine on 1050l, but LTE is not working. Rest seems to be fine...
2. In next steps I replaced initrd.img with a little modified stock one - and LTE started to work - I removed from initrd almost all modules leaving only bcm43241.ko.
3. Battery wakelock problem seems not be resolved - brief check at bq27x00_battery.c in repository shows that wake_lock is still set under bq27x00_battery_suspend_resume()
... so I trying to fix this battery driver but I have problem with kernel - I can compile it successfully, but it doesn't boot
@Olivier:
1. Which branch was used to build kernel-yt2-20160327.img?
2. Which config did you use ?
My procedure using android-ndk-r12b toolchain:
# git clone ...github.com/lenovo-yt2-dev/android_kernel_lenovo_baytrail
# export PATH=~/android_yoga/toolchain/bin:$PATH
# export CROSS_COMPILE=x86_64-linux-android-
# export ARCH=x86
# make cyanogenmod_YT2_10_defconfig --- if this right config?
# make -j8 ----- lot's of warninigs, but kernel is compiled sucesfully.
# abootimg --create boot_test5.img -f bootimg.cfg -k bzImage -r initrd.img ---- bzImage from arch/x86/boot
> fastboot.exe flash boot boot_test5.img
... kernel stuck somewhere, it's doesn't even come to Zygote phase (lenovo animation). Is there any way to see kernel boot messages ?
Hi
I would also like to experiment with the Kernel, but I need to unlock the bootloader. unfortunately the thread is deleted files and I can not, can anyone help me even for private?
I have a 1380F in KitKat
Kind regards

Patched ESP file I found on another forum: forum.android.com.pl/topic/259763-odblokowanie-bootloader%C3%B3w-yoga-tab-2/#entry4598175
For me it worked on Lolipop, but I as know bootloader changed arch x32->x64 during Lolipop->KK upgrade... I don't know if this esp will work on KK (at least do backup of ESP and boot partitions before).

BTW: I was able finally to compile and startup my modified kernel using CM building engine from this thread .
I removed all wakelock code from bq27x00_battery_x8.c
For 1050L I merged: kernel from @Olivier repository + my patch on bq27x00_battery_x8.c + my initrd based on stock + stock Lolipop.
First tests seems to be very promising:
- finally NO battery_wakelock in Wakelock Detector
- LTE is working
- GPS is working
- Sound system is working
- No crashed till now
If anybody is interested i can attach img file.
Thx :good:

The kernel should be working, but the ALS is broken (seems to be a sensor from Avago) - you'll notice that if you use automatic brightness.

Fixed. That was quite easy. Driver al3320 was in place. The problem was permissions set by script init.byt_t_ffrd8.rc in initrd. By default it's root/root, but it should be system/system. I already corrected paths and checked it - it's working. If you could give me permission to repo I can push the patch.
BTW: I see lot's of things are being hard-coded into initrd scripts. Since we changed config kernel, all those scripts must be checked. I can try to do it in free time...but some things are platform depended so, another original initrd from lolopop on 830f would be nice to compare...

LineageOS 7.1 for SGP771

Hi. As a result of Androplus stoppage of his kernel support I decided to create this theme. I'm not a developer.
I use LineageOS more than two months, and it's stable. Originally it was built by andralex, he didn't create this threat as he was waiting the permission from other developer whose groundwork he used. But I lost contact with him. Seems he is very busy.
Now the other developer builded the rom, his nickname is kv123.
--------------
To get usb otg working use this in terminal when you inserted usb stick
Code:
su
echo 1 > /sys/module/qpnp_smbcharger_extension/parameters/start_id_polling
------------
After any lineageos update dont forget about play store to give permissions for storage. Otherwise it wont download any apps larger the 20 mb.
Lineage camera is a bit buggy, so it's better to use open camera.

If you want I can ask kv123 to build the rom for sgp712 too.

Some screenshots:
Oh. You need also replace wifi calibration file here: /system/etc/firmware/wlan/bcmdhd/bcmdhd.cal and reboot
It's forgotten to be added.
Updated fixed version at yandex disk.
Thanks for this. It is exactly what I am looking for and I hope my tech skills are up to the task.
BTW, this link comes up "404 not found. Can't find it!"

Would you have another we can try?
Thats because kv123 removed version with wifi buggy.
Use my mirror link or this.

Kv123 told me that he's gonna build the rom for 712 too.
I don't have SPG712, so i cannot test it. I was lazy to download firmware for 712, so libs are from 771. Hope they are the same. Who have please leave some feedback.
SGP712_lineageos_14_1
P.S. Nfc may not work. I will need to do some tests.

I flashed the rom with Androplus' TWRP-3.0.2-0-20160604, Error 7 because target device is karin_windy but the recovery says the device is karin (actually SGP712, it's karin_windy).
So i deleted the device verification in the updater-script, and it's Error 6 now...

Why do you use androplus recovery? Use normal recovery, take it from yandex disk. And boot by vol- and power till it vibrates.

Nothing happens after I flashed the recoveries from yandex disk(both 3.0.3 and 3.1), so I tried androplus recovery...
Is there a modified boot.img for those recoveries?
P.S. I flashed 32.3.A.2.33.ftf first.
---------- Post added at 10:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 AM ----------
I flashed 32.3.A.2.33 with flashtool, then flash the recovery in fastboot mode with:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery [I]recovery name[/I]
then pressed vol- and power, nothing happens and the tablet boots to the system.
Maybe it's better: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ?
This twrp only requires updated bootloader from 7.0 stock.
Also i need to keep these buttons pressed untill it vibrates that is 2-3 seconds.
You can find kv123 at this thread http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=706675
Also you can try to contact with andralex8. He has just 712 tablet. And it worked for him. But I'm not sure if he answers you quickly.
If you keep trouble with the recovery, try twrp from this https://forum.xda-developers.com/z4-tablet/general/guide-nougat-drm-fix-root-twrp-sgp771-t3555265

Sorry if I have missed something obvious, but are you attempting to flash LineageOS? In which case I am confused as to why you are flashing the Sony Rom 32.A.2.33?
For my part I am gearing up to attempt the LineageOS install but would like to have a backup copy of the Sony firmware in case it goes wrong.
Assuming you installed an English version, which one did you select from here:-
https://xpericheck.com/device/SGP771
Indeed, if you try something especially unchecked, better to have a backup.
But you also need to have last sony rom(any of android 7.0) in order to update bootloader and have last twrp working.

Androplus‘ recovery need a modified boot.img so I wonder if the same as the recovery in yandex disk?
And recovery from https://forum.xda-developers.com/z4-tablet/general/guide-nougat-drm-fix-root-twrp-sgp771-t3555265 is the same as Androplus’ recovery.
Ok. If you've done everything right I guess 712 dosent work with 771 recovery. I'll tell about it to kv123 and you can say it on your own on 4pda.
Please anybody who has 712 model. Test 3.1 recovery from yandex disk and confirm or contradict if it dosent work for you.

not sure how you bricked it but glad you got a new phone.
"cannot have my sim turned off"
So, I have only one sim which is in my work phone. to test LTE, data etc i will have to remove the sim from that phone and put it in the Mi A2. Now, I cannot do that as I cannot have my sim (phone number) turned off for even a minute due to work.
As for going back to stock. Download stock firmware, extract it and replace pie gsi img with system.img from factory firmware zip and you will be back to stock.

How did i bricked my phone. Simple. First of all no desrepect for any dev, since i did this by my one. What i did was tried to flash unofficial twrp and fastboot set slot b did not worked. Once i reboot it got stuck on a bootloop. i couldn't flash xiaomi stock fastboot zip due to "critical partition flashing is not allowed" and before you asked yes my A2 was bootloader unlocked one. Unlock critical partition thing is not for our devices like for pixel series as far as i know. So simply i couldn't fix it, neither the software guy from my purchased center. That's why im afraid. I know you are besy, but highly appreciate if you can write down how to go back to stock guideline as well. Thanks again :good:

LIke i said.
dowload fastboot firmware from here.

extract the zip file. open images folder. grab system.img. put it in fasboot folder. and in step where we flash pie gsi image, flash the system.img you just pasted in fastboot folder.

Problems installing Gapps on GSI Roms

So currently I'm running AOSP Extended V6 on my 002. The rom itself runs great BUT I can't get Gapps to stick. Unlocked bootloader with TWRP 3.1.0. After I resize system Gapps will install and say Successful but when I clear cache and reboot I have no nothing installed. I'm new to this device so be easy if i'm missing something obvious.
EDIT: I've tried multiple version of Gapps from a few different places.
I have yet to have any GSI rom work, so I stopped trying and just ran a debloat script I wrote
It's weird how hit and miss GSI is on the exact same model. I may end up reverting back to stock and unlock/root and use your script and then just call it a day if I can't figure this out. I SO wanted AOSP Ext to work but kinda useless to me without Gapps.

I honestly even uninstalled gapps on my 10 inch because its one purpose is gonna be an in-car OBD II monitoring tablet with Torque Pro for my car.
GSI roms are so strange. I have 3 G7 Play's. 2 of them took the same GSI just fine, then the third just bricked and boot looped. I had to change the boot animation in TWRP to get it to boot. Even then, camera and bluetooth didn't work, but the other 2 were 100% functional. Reflashed quite a few times

I believe the hit and miss comes from the gsi's being developed on specific devices by different developers. They are supposed to work on any project treble enabled devices but it's just not so. This is just my thought from trying almost all available and a lot of time reading. The whole idea has slowly began a full circle movement to custom gsi's. The oxymoron of that last sentence kind of sums it up from my experience. Custom generics are what are being produced for the most part. If one looks at the different maintainers threads they will see what device it is supposed to work on. A.O.S.P should work a little better than most and the builds I have tried from ci.android.com have worked really well. Personally didn't see much point in the stock android gsi over debloated stock in this case. Much simpler to maintain device integrity by debloating the very few unwanted apps. All that said I am still running Beast ROM as I actually like it, the only issue I know of is device theme(takes forever+know-how) and I don't use gapps. So it works great on my tablet and I am not sure what options I will have in the future. All the changes have me sitting with a tablet that if flashed back to stock will not take ota's and a serial# of 0123456789ABCDEF. Happy Modding.
Don't know if you've seen them but there are a couple gsi's that have gapps installed with no other options, can't remember which they were, but may work better.
I appreciate the info and insight you always give. My 002 I actually went back to stock and just rooted and debloated it. I wanted it to be stable since it's my couch tablet lol. I picked up a 007 on Black Friday just for the hell of it. I'm gonna play with it and experience some different roms. BTW, they changed the model numbers on them. It's not with me right now but the model number is all numbers now. Looks more like the serial number.

The model number I remember for the 8" was ONA19TB002 and 10" was ONA19TB003 and 007 was kboard model. Did they change to something other than that ? I remember a different number when looking at fccid page but it seemed shorter. When it's nearby give update if you don't mind, I'm curious it may help in search for firmware.
The new model number is 100005209. I took the back off of the new one and my old one and they are identical with the same part numbers. They're also all branded Surf now.

I am venturing to flash ohh aosp -10 v107.
Needed to flash the vanilla version, because the gapps version was too big.
All I get is stuck at the onn splash screen.
Do I need to flash anything to vbmeta to get this to boot a gsi?
Update:
Self test result
Yes. Even after unlocking bootloader, still need to flash vbmeta with --disable-verification before you can boot gsi.
Then there is a setprop that is needed to get the gsi to boot
While device is stuck on the"Android" logo bootanimation from aosp. Enter commands into ad shell.
Code:
adb shell setprop debug.stagefright.ccodec 0
This will get tablet to boot. But the setprop (which should become persistent) does not remain after a reboot. So the line needs to be added to the boot script built into phh gsi. "rw-sysyem.sh"
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /
echo "setprop debug.stagefright.ccodec 0" >> /system/bin/rw-system.sh
These steps worked for me. And should work for you. But as with any modifications to your device , by you , are your responsibility to confirm are done correctly.
The main problem I've been having has not been with the ROM itself. I had a few vanillas that after resizing and installing GAPPS the actual apps don't show up. I'd go back into TWRP and reflash the GAPPS and it would respond with a success after seeing all the apps install but after a reboot none was there.

I just had that with gapps install I was trying. And in recovery after the gapps flash, before reboot I looked around with twrp file manager. I see all the apps installed. But they are not in the correct location.
They are getting installed in the /system-root/app folder rather than the /system-root/system/app folder.
I don't know the fix yet. I mentioned it in the twrp thread and diplomatic has said he does not know why it didn't go as it was supposed to .

Are you sure that is not correct? Because I just checked on my Onn 8 with the stock rom and they are in /system/app/.
There system privileged apps in: /system/priv-app. Updates are in /data/app, I believe.
Has anyone had success in installing opengapps on one of these tablets? Also, has anyone tried installing it with System mounted in TWRP? Even if it doesn't work in TWRP, I believe the install script supports running on Android too.
How has anyone been able to flash a gsi. Ive even tried disabling avb but cant get it to boot. After reboot twrp dosent even recognize an os installed

Woops.... No it still doesn't work. Actually it made one of my 8's bootloop after.
I found this solution in another thread:
- Format data partition and reboot recovery.
- Open terminal in twrp without system, data, and cache mounted.
- Enter the following commands:
e2fsck -y /dev/block/by-name/system
e2fsck -f /dev/block/by-name/system
resize2fs /dev/block/by-name/system
- Then reboot twrp
- Flash system img reboot recovery
- After that flash pico gapps without system mounted
Thats how i was able to successfully flash gapps on aosp phh 10. You may need to try a couple times but it should work.
