Official Marshmallow update for Lenovo vibe k5 plus(Relised Brzail only) - Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion

Lenovo has relised Marshmallow update for Lenovo vibe k5 plus but only aveliable in Brazil. My question is how I can update my phone. As you have already probably guessed I don't live in Brazile thus manual update is the only way but how? As far as my knowledge goes phone shouldn't be rooted because we are talking about official rom, but where I can download it? And how to set phone to update from SD card or internal memory and not via wi-fi?(couldnt find that option on my phone, I found it easily on other phones but on k5 plus it is simply not there)Also this is not breaking my varantee right?
And yeah I am kinda newbee here so step by step quide would be nice.
Thank you in advance for your support.

But this firmware doesn't have all languages.

But this is for rooted device. Why is root needed if installing official rom?

Hello. I installed the update from the link above without rooting.
Just installed the latest TWRP for K5 plus (available in this forum), then used the recovery image as stated in the link above.
Hope this helps

You can also download the ROM on @Shreps website (https://moto.shreps.fr) :
- Lenovo Vibe K5
- ROM
- Stock firmware
- choose the Zip with "S105" in the name
And then flash it with qfil (you can find guides on this forum).
Just one thing : I'm not sure that you will keep your warranty with this as this version is not for Europe or Asia but only South America I think. You will need to reflash an older version if you want to use your warranty.

My mistake, the S105 update is NOT the Marshmallow update, sorry.

Lenovo India has stopped all updates for Indian Z2 Plus.

Indian ZUI was only Chinese ZUI with GApps and Theme Engine removed.

Thanks a lot. Is this an official, confirmed info or a rumor? I'd really like to see global/Indian ZUI 3.1. I'm on CN ZUI 3.1 at the moment. Uninstalled all bloat but still getting notifications on Chinese sometimes. English only would be a blast!
After so many customs ROMs, now I'm on ZUI 2.5.104 ST (INDIAN VERSION). How should I install latest Chinese ZUI.

Hi, its not posible and it can be harmful to install a different version, for installing without root you can do it with the FIrmware Finder for Huawei through your version and using a web proxy

There are 3 methods:
1.- Through Root with TWRP (you need Unlocked bootloader)
2.- Using HiSuite (you will need Huawei Updater Tool 2.0)
3.- Using your phones OTA update with Firmware Finder for Huawei (a playstore app)

Any chance you can provide a step-by-step guide for the third method? I don't want to unlock my bootloader and the second method didn't work for me. As for the third method I did try the mention app, but all it did was download the update file on the device and that's it. It doesn't install the update and the phone doesn't detect it either. I tried from the recovery through internal memory and an SD card but still it didn't detect it.
I would appreciate the help.

Checking bootloader version on the phone

Hi, how do I check my current bootloader version that is on my phone? And how do i know what version of bootloader will be in any stock rom i want to flash?
I don't want to overwrite with older bootloader. Need to know the current and the next one i will flash.
My device is from Europe and I have NPN25.137-92 installed.. I think this is not the latest stock nougat for my region.
Cheers.

No need to push your question everyday. If someone is able/wants to answer he will do.
First of all: NPN25.137-92 is not the European firmware, it's the one for India and Brazil.
The latest one in Europe seems to be NPN25.137-93-14, since yesterday there is another update with version number NPN25.137-93-18 out incl. August security patch but until now only US users (software channel RETUS) have confirmed it. For India/Brazil (your firmware) the latest Nougat firmware is NPN25.137-92-14.
Have you fastboot flashed some firmware on your device so that you are on NPN25.137-92 now? That could be the reason you don´t receive any further OTA updates.
Your bootlader version should be visible when you boot into stock recovery.
Yes, I must have flashed pretty wrong firmware, and now I want to get back on the track. Though I dont remember and I dont have knowledge what was flashed before that. Now I wonder what should be my next step in order to have latest European nougat, or oreo.

Flash latest european firmware NPN25.137-93-14 via fastboot. It can be found somwhere here in the Moto G 5+ threads or you can download it with Lenovo Smart Assistant: https://support.lenovo.com/de/de/downloads/ds101291
That should keep you back on track.
If you can't wait you can update to Oreo with the available OTA found here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5...fficial-moto-g5-g5-plus-t3848246/post77856408 ( Read OP of that thread to find out how). But as I posted above there's a newer nougat firmware out in the US so you may not receive future Oreo updates if you use this OTA.

Need an advice: I'm currently on POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-10, OTA says i can update it to POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-14.. Then I could get Oreo OTA from the thread above. In case of any further trouble: will it be safe to return to nougat POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-10 via fastboot? If yes, if then I update again to POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-14, it is safe to take nougat OTA again? And then oreo OTA again? Hope you get my point.

No, that's not safe. Downgrading is always a risky thing because of the bootloader and taking OTA after that could completely hardbrick your phone.
So if you're once on 93-14 you shouldn't flash an older firmware than this. Same applies to downgrading from Oreo to Nougat.

Well, in case of firmware, I cannot find direct 93-14 fastboot rom for download. I have found 93-10 only, that's why I'm concerned about not having the most up to date rom version on my hard drive to flash in case of<>.

Need help to go back stock

Hi,
i have unlocked my bootloader while i was on POTTER_RETAIL_8.1.0_OPSS28.85-17-6 . I installed twrp and a custom rom and that's fine. Now i want to go back to stock but i apparently can't because the latest firmware i can find on the internet is the OPSS28.85-17-4 and when i try to follow the guides it says i am downgrading the security patches. How can i solve this problem? Do i have to simply wait for the 17-6 firmware to be leaked? :crying:
Edit: I have a xt1687
You can just flash a twrp zip till the firmware is available

You can try Lenovo Motorola Smart Assistant:
https://support.lenovo.com/de/de/downloads/ds101291
It should find the latest security patch for your device and save in on your PC.
You can fastboot flash it than.
Btw, it's not that bad to be on 17.4 because 17.6 is the last official security patch/update that Lenovo will release at all.

Thank you. I used the lenovo motorola smart assistant and i managed to download the latest stock rom for xt1687 which is POTTER_OPSS28.85_17_6_cid50_subsidy_DEFAULT_regulatory_DEFAULT_CFC.xml.
I don't know if i can post the image here but you can do it the same way i did. Plug the phone to your pc with the lenovo desktop app installed, enable usb debugging and go to flash. From there select manually from rescue the device and then go to fastboot. It will show the latest official image present in the phone ( even if you have a custom rom) and simply download it. When it finished don't press rescue and the image will be in
C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles . If this is a repost of any kind i apologize.

You're welcome and thank you for sharing your experience. You are allowed to share that firmware, just zip it and load it up to one of the known hosters like Dropbox or similar. But you're also right, should be possible for everyone else to do the same that you did.

IMO it's a shame that Lenovo has stopped supporting this phone only after two years! IMO the phone is great for it's price/performance. These short planned obsolescence is ecologically harmful. I am certainly not planning on replacing this phone unless there is another in the price range that is quantum leap better, or until 5G is ubiquitous.

P9 lite - VNS-L21C432B160

Hello there,
I have just received an old P9 lite - VNS-L21C432B160. I has Android 6.0 an EMUI 4. I wanted to flash a custom ROM but I am not able to. I have bootloader unlocked. I am able to instal TWRP 3.0.2-0. But all custom ROMs I tried, gave me ERROR7 or Signal 11. (It is not possible to correct Error7 according to manuals here...)
There is TWRP 3.2.1 for this phone but it doesn't work at all. I found out, it wants EMUI5.x which I do not have. Is it correct that I need to update to Nougat7 and EMUI5 first? I am trying to do it maybe 4 days already. I have tried everything which is available on the internet but I failed. I have original Stock ROM file with Android 6 - it works.. I also have update file for Android 7 (B336), but the phone doesn't want it. According to official manual, I need some kind of transfer package, which is not available.
Can anybody help me with flashing a custom ROM to this phone? I would love to have LineageOS 14.1
Thank you very much
Karel

Hi Karel,
use Firmware Finder app to update to android 7.
I recommend vpn/dns method.
You should point to B370 FULLOTA-MF-PV one...
All info are inside the app and some videos are on You_tu_be...
You can update the same way to latest firmware.
Good luck... :fingers-crossed:
Dude if you will succeed do not use 3.2.1 twrp, use instead 3.1.1-1 one..
Cheers
Hello Hello, thank you very much !! I was successful. The phone runs with the latest firmware now. I tried to install lineageOS 14 but I am not able to do that. I am stucked at the boot logo .. I found info: "If you stuck on boot screen, change your file system"... filesystem of what? SD card? Phone?
Thanks in advance!

Dude, the instructions are so old,
also i never installed LineageOS 14 on my p9 lite. (I do not have it anymore)
I can tell you to use twrp version 3.1.1-1 and I recommend posting it
in the appropriate thread, maybe other users can answer in more detail ..
Regards

Hello dude,
i wish to help but i think it's not possible....
anyway the best you can wish for is having android 7 stock
or some custom version of android 8.
As you wrote you have the cinese variant (G9 Youth). It should have
a different processor and need a personalized rom, can you check it ?
Go in settings, phone info...
Please report your complete firmware version
(example: VNS-L21C432B160/VNS-AL00C00B230)
and chipset version (example: Kirin 650/Snapdragon SD 617)
P.S.: You don't need to post in multiple sections.
It is also considered to be a duplicate and it is
against the rules ...
