rudrax Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Why don't you guys start posting Android tutorials it's virgin territory. ^_^You are supposed to post the "android firewall tutorial" btw :angry:If I did that the territory would no longer remain virgin. :tehe:What tempting you to keep the territory virgin? You can rather say that the tutorial will be a hell of a headache and there is no assurane that it will work (like the ESET firewall fix fail) - I would accept it. :spank:how's ur windows 10 going btw? how r u managing the updates? :rolleyes:Don't ask. I don't have a personal Win 10 system right now. A friend whose system I have assembled, gave me the system to use till I assemble my own. I have installed win 10 in that. Formatted yesterday after Ccleaner cleaning messed with it. The Windows update thing is tricky with win 10. Before formatting, by dcs18's trick, I was able to restrict the auto download of updates but after formatting, the same trick isn't working.Another problem is ESET's tray icon isn't starting up with windows.Microsoft will never learn!

rudrax Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I have this list already except those two highlighted. You sent me via PM ages ago.And most of those apps are best suited for custom ROMs.BTW, I rate "Swiftkey" over "Swype" and I am not a big fan of complex audio player. So AIMP is all I wanted. I am happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcs18 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 And most of those apps are best suited for custom ROMs.Custom ROM or Stock ROM does not matter — what makes a difference though, is that those apps are mostly suitable for rooted devices (regardless of the ROM.)BTW, I rate "Swiftkey" over "Swype" <snip>Well, when I am using the typist method, SwiftKey does seem better — however, I prefer Swype for it's superior swiping (after all Swype is the innovator of this radical method.)

rudrax Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Guys, right now I got a bricked Lenovo A6000 plus phone to fix.My friend went to city to fix it. Roamed around some repair shop. They couldn't fix it. Finally he apprached Lenovo service center. But as the phone was rooted, which means the warranty was breached. They pounding on that opportunity, agreed to repair the phone for 5k bucks, where the phone itself costs 7k. Pretty "flaccid dick condition" on a romantic bed time with your girl, right? :tooth:He came back and left the phone with me saying "If you can't repair, crush it". He was pretty sad.Now, I tried his phone to get recognised in the computer but it was a hell of a mess to do that. I will tell this if I succeed in making the device work. Somehow, I made the device recognised and ready to flash through adb sideload. I am going to download the stock rom tonight. I have a doubt in this case. The current rom on the bricked device reads "Kraft-A6000-s_S014_150730" but after searching a lot I only find "Kraft-A6000-s_S015_150819" through their official server.So if anyone has a flashing experience with Lenovo device, I want to ask - can I flash S015_150819 rom over existing bricked S014_150730 rom?Worked perfectly. Just repaired my friend's lenovo a6000 plus.Hurray :clap:I will write the tuturial here if I don't feel lazy. @dcs18, send me some mojo. :tooth: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcs18 Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 I will write the tuturial here if I don't feel lazy.@dcs18, send me some mojo. :tooth:Personally, I like to pick on subjects that do not already have any tutorial on the internet highway.I like to reserve space for the same and then just wait for the inspiration to kick-in. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudrax Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I tried the tutorials around the web but none of them was able to list the lenovo a6000 plus device on adb sideload command without which it wasn't possible to flash a device with that condition. The improvised part was mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudrax Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 [Fix] Lenovo A6000/A6000 Plus phone Unbrick TutorialCondition of the phoneResourcesThe Lenovo A6000/A6000 Plus stock ROM direct from Lenovo servers - 1.05 GBKraft-A6000-s_S015_150819_WCC8.zipADB Sideload Tool - 749.5 KBMinimal ADB and FastbootADB driver for Lenovo A6000/A6000 Plus - 8.27 MBxiaomi_usb_driver.rarThe ProcedureNow, restart you PC to boot options and disable Driver signature enforcement.Instal the ABD driver for Lenovo A6000/A6000 Plus from the given link in your PC and restart.Make sure your bricked phone has at least 50% of charge. Connect your phone with the original data cable with the PC and turn it ON. Be sure to keep the phone with the data cable in a stable position because any disconnection during the process may lead the phone to permanent damage. Also make sure that the PC or Laptop whatever your are using for the purpose can hold for 6-8 minutes under A.C power interruption. Power loss during the process will also permanently damage the phone.Now after connecting the phone to PC and switching the phone ON, you will see the Droid Boot menu as shown in the first picture of the tutorial.Use the volume up/down key to nevigate to the option "Apply update from ADB" and select the option by pressing the power button.Now your PC should make a "hardware insert sound".Now instal "minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup.exe". Navigate to its installed folder in program files and move/copy the downloaded ZIP file of Lenovo ROM in there.Now launch the ADB fastboot app from the shortcut placed in desktop as administrator and type in adb devices. In case of successful driver installation and connection, you should see your device ID followed by "sideload" command. If the device ID is not appearing in the command window, you might have missed something. In that case start from scratch again.Now you are ready to send the ROM package to your phone. To do that, in the same command prompt window type in adb sideload Kraft-A6000-s_S015_150819_WCC8.zip exactly as the way it is and hit "Enter". Then the adb command will start sending the ROM package to your phone. You will see the progress in the command window.After 100%, the package will be sent to your phone. Then your phone will verify and instal the package. It will take a while for this and at last it will say you successful presenting the "Droid Boot" menu as shown in the first picture of the tutorial.Now, diconnect the cable from the PC and and restart the phone pressing the power button once over the "reboot system now" option. It will take some time to take you to the android setting during a fresh start.Feel free to ask/suggest anything in this regard.Good Luck!All credits goes to the original developers of the used tools. My credit is just composing them together.Tested successfully on Windows 10 64 bit with Lenovo A6000 Plus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I will tell you my improvised part.It's about finding the adb driver for the phone. I found some solutions but none of them worked. Then after connecting the phone, I went to the device manager. Spotted the device in the "unknown device" section. Copied it's "Hardware ID" and found the exact driver using the trick in my sig which was also improvised. :lol:The exact driver came out to be a XIAOMI one though but worked flawlessly :tehe: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
