This is a recently released OTA for Beta users by Lenovo anyone can install this if you are using the stock recovery. For TWRP some mods. should be done to the package.
Link : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4gp1Lef7g4aT3B2N0otQjJZSUU/view
Install method : Just download and rename it to update.zip that's all, keep it in the root directory of the phone and boot into recovery to insatll the update.
P.S. This is not my work, this is directly from Lenovo. So, don't point your fingers at me if you do something wrong Anything you do is on your own and you should face the consequences

No, you can do it only with stock recovery. Even it is not possible if you are rooted. Must be flashed stock rom and then this update..

There is a file called update script in the zip that file needs to be edited using notepad++, there are some lines of code in the starting of that file that needs to be modified. I haven't checked it out yet but I'll try to make a flash able zip for twrp as soon as I'm free.

It can be flashed via the proper recovery for x3_row. But, yeah, system shouldn't be modified before applying OTA.

Or you can just flash the zip as-is using x3_row (X3a40) recovery available here.

Is "Drive" its exact and complete name? I don't seem to have got that, it might be market-specific... Are you sure you are not mixing it up with Drive from Google?

Yes it is google drive but i have not downloaded it was not there before the update
Got this "V50010B" update via OTA yesterday (in Italy on an Italian G Pad).
Things I have noticed so far are they have corrected a couple of bugs: tap sounds randomly muted and then randomly working again (I have them on) and a bug where you have the "Auto-show the Remote in the lockscreen when on some AP" option ON and the time widget would "multiply", over time.
P.S. I didn't lose root and I forgot to disable Xposed before updating but it hasn't affected anything. Everything works perfectly well after the update.
I have noticed two changes after the update.
1. Screen seems to be brighter on minimum brightness. Those who was crying for the 7 led's leek, can be happy.
2. If you lock screen rotation, it will be locked on the current position, instead of going back to portrait mode. Now you can lie on your side, and use the tab on landscape:good: !

Good to know! The few times I lock the screen (of both my smartphone and my tablet) I usually need it in portrait but I have always found VERY STUPID this behaviour some makers/devices have of locking the orientation always and only in portrait!!
My Note II unfortunately has it, I didn't notice the G Pad had it too (I have probably never tried to lock it in landscape, so far) but I am very glad it hasn't anymore! :good:
I still haven't got the update as of noon eastern time today. Do they push it in waves or something?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
For anyone tryed to flash the update with TWRP recovery and stuck into "recovery bootloop" just do this.
1)Boot into recovery
2)Go to "Advanced" and then "Terminal Command" and choose root folder.
3)Type this and then hit enter. TRY TO TYPE IT RIGHT OR YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
PS:Without this command even restore will not work
Ps2:Credits to the thecubed
Unable to connect to the camera because it is being used by other apps or disabled due to security policies.
This is the error message I keep getting whenever launching my camera. I've tried factory reset but the error still persists. I can try and get a logcat but I'll be completely honest I've never done my own logcat before.
Any help appreciated, thanks for looking.
Does your camera work after a fresh reboot? Does it stop working after awhile? There might be a runaway app hogging your camera. Usual culprits are camera apps, face unlock and custom lockscreens.

Rebooting doesn't help. The front camera works fine until I switch over to the rear camera.
Did you change anything in the build.prop?

Click to expand...

I added the line to add navigation bar to phone (it doesn't work)
From my experience so far with the Axon 7, tweaking certain things on the build.prop crashes the phone. When I tried to make enable multi-windows by changing the "user" to "userdebug", it caused the same problem you were having. Nothing fixed it; not restarting, system wipe, changing the build.prop to its original setting... nothing. I simple had to restore my phone from a previous backup. Hopefully, you did do a clean backup of your device. If not, then that is a common rookie mistake. Sorry to break this down to you. I hope that this was helpful.
Only time I've seen this error, is when I downloaded a different camera from the Playstore and tried to open it the same time my stock camera was running in the background.
You don't have any other camera's installed or have an app that is open that uses your camera (like Snapchat, ect..)?
I'm sure you don't, but just throwing something out to try/check.
Just restore system from previous backup like B4oE said, if you did not make a backup just download one of the twrp backups uploaded by the users around the forums. make sure to download the correct version either b20 or b20_boot. what version are you on? did you root using tenfar + locked bootloader?

Since switching back to stock lollipop firmware from a custom rom, I'm continuously seeing this message "Unauthorised actions have been detected" in my notification bar. When I open it, it takes me to smart manager where I've got an option of reboot. After rebooting it takes me to TWRP, nothing else happens after TWRP opens.
Any fix for that?

Hmm yes I'm thinking to go for android 4.3 now rather then 5.0.1.
Depending on the model of you phone, I'm not sure if you can downgrade to 4.3 from 5.01. If you can't, Odin should not flash the ROM.

Hi,
Does anyone have a problem whereby the filters in camera and gallery, if you press it, the app crashes?
I just noticed mine.
Anyway to fix it? Without redownloading and flashing a whole stock rom? Like reinstalling those apps?
Rooted and on TWRP here.
That because you have your bootloader unlocked.
To fix, flash the stock recovery and the flash the OTA update B151.

I have the same problem with my honor 6. I changed the permissions without having any effekt. How did you find out, it was this file?
So recently it shut off around 50% which I have read others are experiencing but thats not the issue im here about. Since then the flashlight by holding power button has stopped working and the hotspot feature shuts itself off randomly. I also cannot delete any files from the ready to flash folder for some reason ive tried everything I know.

You could also just use the file manager in TWRP to delete the "ready to flash" folder. Sounds like it's time for a factory reset. :laugh:
