K1 Ideapad Looping logo & flashing rom error

I recently ran into a issue on my Ideapad K1. Whenever I turn it on the lenovo Logo just keeps repeating itself. It's a stock Tablet, I haven't rooted it or anything, I'm new to the rom world. It goes into apx just fine and I'd found a bootloader rom but whenever I try to flash it i get an error. I've tried other roms since then and always get the same error at the same spot. i've attached a screenshot of the error.
My tablets about 9 months old so I believe its past the warranty so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Just for kicks and giggles did you try from a different USB port? I ran into something similar and got different messages from different ports til I found one that worked.

Works on lenovo A3500 (A7-50 A3500)
Hello,
I post because I 've tried your process on my new tablet A7-50 (android 4.4.2 kitkat) and it worked fine, thanks you very much to Koli96 but the letter indicated on my tablet, it's not H or HV but L.
If someone else has the same it's cool for them, the process "http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-lenovo-a3500-h-t2879208/page2".
Hi !
I did that too for my A3500_FL and it works fine.
However there is a OTA upgrade and the CWM fails to execute it.
What to do, need i to restore Stock recovera (If YES, how to do it ?).

error installing super su
I followed the guide step by step it when I try to install super su in download mode it says: installation aborted.
rooting Lenovo A3500H failure
Hi folks,
I followed the procedure but when clicking download in the Smart Phone Flash Tool it goes to "search" and never starts transferring. I have selected Recovery (recovery.img) as required, nothing else.
The tool was started as Administrator on my Windows 8.1 PC.
But i mention one thing: When pressing download a Warning pops up like:
"Not ALL Images are correctly loaded, which may cause boot up issue!
Do you still want to go on downloading anyway?"
As said above, when clicking YES it goes into "search" and nothing happens anymore.
Stop works fine, it does not hang up or such.
The Tablet is recognized on the PC as 3500-H and i can view the data.
I have Android 4.4.2 on the brand new Tablet. Nothing done to it so far.
Who has an idea what goes wrong??
TIA and have a good week.
Hartmut
I just bought an A7-50 A3500-F. Has anybody here been able to upgrade that specific model to Android KitKat 4.4? (I know it works for the A3500-H and A3500-HV, but am wondering about the A3500-F model.)

You should try flashing the same scatter file with another flash tool. I too was unsuccessful, with exactly the same symptoms. I searched the web and I did find a way, that too didn't work, so I tried the flash tool of that website with the firmware available at XDA. It worked. I can't put links here, so maybe I can mail it to you. *Make sure you hit the reset button before flashing and backup your NVRAM folder. You really don't want to lose your IMEI like I did.*
I fixed it and flashed CM11 ROM

Lenovo A328 Bricked Not Charging Not Booting

I have this Lenovo A328 which suddenly had multiple and continuous gapps crashes. I tried to do a factory reset but the problem still existed. I decided to flash the stock rom using SP Flash Tool. Flashing the stock rom succeeded but then after, the device does not charge nor boot up. It does not even respond to vol up(or down) + power which brings up a menu for testing the device(not recovery). I tried to format it first before flashing but the result is still the same. I also tried flashing stock rom from different source. Any idea on this one?
Update
I tried to flash a stock rom on my Lenovo A328 with SP Flash Tool but the process was interrupted and now after I flashed the stock rom successfully, the phone won't charge nor boot, not even to recovery. I noticed in my EMMC Flash that the sizes of GP1 - 4 are all 0x0.
I found a solution in here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2792667
It says that I have to flash the rom using DOWNLOAD first and then flash it again with FIRMWARE UPGRADE. I'm already at the FIWMWARE UPGRADE process but I got this error
Failed to get PMT info.

Hi, I am having the same problem. Could you help?
Hello everyone!
I am facing the same problem!!!
Tried almost all the solutions suggested on different sites or forums, nothing works, still no charge and no start...
Change the PC, the USB cables, drivers, ROM's, you name it... Someone said this MTK devices are hard to brick but still, why we cannot revive our devices??? Hardware failure? Not really according to some technicians as long your phone is detected by the pc in device manager, the phone CAN be "unbricked".
SO, we are missing something, we doing something wrong???
We need help.... SOMEONE???
please send me the firmware
I have the same problem about my lenovo a328. After flashing, it's not booting and turning on. It's not even charging. So what I did is I tried to firmware upgrade it and I got this ''failed to get PMT info'' alert. Someone know how to revive this phone?
I got 2 phones and they've bricked themselves
Hi,
I got 2 Lenovo A328s and they've bricked themselves, having the same symptoms.
I can get them to boot in Recovery, and I am waiting to download an image to sideload with ADB, which seems to work.
One of them was still in use, but had software glitches, like the camera driver not working in any app.
The other one was replaced 10 months ago, but after long time, it also bricked.
I haven't attempted any flash of new firmware.
I have the same problem, the phone isn't charging and I can't use vol up+ power buttons.
Can you send me the software please and some instructions?

On first look, it seems like your phone is in bootloop and you need to flash new ROM after wiping the partitions correctly. But, then you are saying that same thing is happening when you insert this battery in another A6000. I think your battery has gone rogue due to some virus, just throw it away. Jokes apart, if another device is showing same behaviour then its almost 100% sure, that your battery has issues and need to be replaced. And, why don't you actually check switching on your phone by putting the battery from that another A6000 into your A6000.
I have checked with another battery, my phone works fine. But that particular battery is doing only on off continuously. But #important thing is , i don't think the battery has gone. Bcoz during the on off process, if i press volume down key, it shows lenovo logo and gets stock there. If the battery has problem, then how can be it stays on showing the logo ?? Confused ???
