Does anyone know how to restore the boot partion? I think that this time I achieved to brick my phone. I tried to (read: FAILED) to downgrade the latest 2.3.5 and now no matter what I do, all I get is "update failed messages." I can't get into recovery (CWM or the standard) since when I boot my phone to the pink screen, nothing happens; no partion shows up anywhere. BLAH!
if you want i ill upload the image file to you??

It already is "semi-bricked", so it's a win-win situation whatever the result may be. It's just taking ages to download the needed rom file. blah x 2....
but you did something after read the thread??

I would really like it if you posted your steps. I have Mac and have to : ( using Parallels desktop & W7)
1.Data wipe from CWMR a must do or WiFi breaks. No more TWRP for me, I lost extSD cause of the box in normal selection.
2.Enter fast boot ...
3.Rsdlite & select the XML from Matts util...Reboots.
4.BP SETUP go settings for USB debug.
5.Root w/ Matts.
6.Say no to logins & syncs.
7.VooDoo protect & unroot.
8.Check for update......yes yes...stock recovery... reboot
9.VooDoo restore root.
10.login and DL RM.
11.RM with Photon Q recovery.
12.I keep ROM on extSD only... back home
Long right.
I would like to Rsd the newest XML http://sbf.droid-developers.org/scorpion_mini_xt907/list.php but I do not know how to root it from my Mac.
Update one confirmed the below stated phone issue is fixed now just looking for some more testers using chupachups ROM. I have 1 tester and would like to have a couple more just for confirmation that it's the same with everyone. As this is the only ROM I've had an issue with and I'd really like to get it resolved so you guys can share in the goodness if this mod as i can not test it myself because chuoachups doesn't make a ROM for the Verizon variant. See there were some differences in the one file on chupachups ROM then all the other thermal files I've looked at and I had one report that they lost phone capabilities after flashing thermalmod75rc4 so I copied the lines of code that were missing from chupachups originals and inserted them into the new mod so here's the link to the chuoachups thermal mod 75°
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347761304
Please let me know if all works well and the ability to make and receive calls is restored
Also here is the link to the original thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/thermal-mod-t2907363
You can read what the person had to say about the issue on the last few pages of the thread if you're interested
INSTRUCTIONS backup the original thermal files and thermald files if you have them to a safe place then flash mod and wipe caches and if by some chance you do lose phone all you have to do is delete the 4 new files and and paste your originals back in reboot and you'll be good to go
All the files are located in system/etc
All your feedback is greatly appreciated as I'd like to get this mod working well with chupachups ROM
Thanks for the help Rob

Really great thread, hats off to this.
I have one question. Is there any way to flash Lenovo k4 note via sp flash tool without locking bootloader. As, everytime I flash it via sp flash tools, the bootloader gets locked and I have to go through all the process to unlock it again. I thought of unticking preloader but was too afraid to experiment with this critical part (preloader sounds like some serious ****, haha).

Thank you, I guess this is the answer I was looking for. I was just affraid if unticking some files might brick the device but it seems like it doesn't.
And BTW, no problem with twrp replaced with stock recovery, it takes just a minute to flash twrp again.

It is a buggy touchpad, must be some moisture on the inside of the touchpad. I agree, go to the service centre.

Which ROM do you use? And what do mean by 'ROMs from many websites'? Explain your ROM flashing process in detail.
Hit Thanks if I Helped You!!!

Roms i meant stock roms. S152 and S200 S218 flashable roms. for Lollipop and Marshmallow. S152 is working fine but OTA update and manual Sp tool flashing and recovery flashing leads me to bootloop on 6.0 versions. I've downloaded many stock marshmallow S200 and higher from xda and other sites all gave me bootloop. with or without user data and cache flashing also. if bootloop is crossed phone never crosses android is upgrading thing.
Any leads are appreciated. TIA

As for ROM flashing process
1. Stock Recovery
- download .zip file
- rename it as update.zip, place it in internal storage
- go to recovery and update
2. Sp flash tools
- download rom files
- install drivers
- open sp flash tools locate scatter file
- select download and connect phone.

Use this S P flash tool method
- Download rom files
- Install drivers if install already installed then skip this step
- After install drivers go to phone settings>about phone and tap build number 7 times,go back to settings and enable usb debuging in devloper options.
- Open s p flash tool
- Select option in left uppar corner,there is download option availabe,click on it and there is One/two Da DL option available available based on your s p flash tool version.check these two option.
- Locate scatter file in downloaded folder
- Make sure all files are selected
- Select firmware upgrade,p ress download and connect switch off phone.
- After showing download ok then remove mobile and switch on phone.
