I have tried to compile all useful guides/information available for our Note across the Note section.
You will find everything from official firmware update to custom firmware flashing.
Again, none of this is my work, I have just compiled it together for easy access.

Cool index jeetu, well done.
I'd just put 'How to root' at position #1 if I were you - that's the very first thing any new user here wants to do, isn't it?

Very helpful thread
Suggestion for inclusion
Very Useful stuff indeed... You may like to include Ahalford's How to prevent § handle wakelocks § save battery life
Please check THIS thread for new versions!!!
This is my first work on Lenovo K910.
This 1st Rom doesn't have as many tweaks as i usually do on my previous works (Sony X10 & Samsung S3).
Check post 2 for major tweaks.
Important
Make sure that you use TWRP for this. I didn't try on any other recovery.
Go here if you don't have it and follow the step-by-step guide.
This rom is for K910 only so if you try to install on any other than K910 version it's your resposability (i.e. K910e, etc)
What to Expect From this?
Based on VIBEUI_V2.0_1437
Deodexed
Clean many apps as possible [check 2nd post if you want something back] - Only 482Mb!!!
Faster
Slightly tweaked build.prop file
English as default
Do not expect Multi Language for two reasons. 1st: VibeUI came out in in short periods. 2nd: Don't have time and/or patience.
To Do List
Make system faster
Change Kernel to support init files
OTA Updates
Super tweaked build.prop file
????
Step-by-Step Install procedure
Do a backup
On TWRP Wipe > Factory Reset
Through TWRP install VIBEUI_V2.0_1437_deodexed.zip
Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache
Reboot
At this moment you have a very clean and stable rom. Now check 2nd post to build our own personal rom. Enjoy :good:
Mirrors
Android File Host
Bugs
When you finish the install procedure, you'll find some files related to system apps left behind on your launcher. You could delete them by long press
Due many system apps have been deleted and mostly KK had some bugs (i.e. check here) Play Google may cause you a bit a work.
Usefull Links
Check post #5 for usefull links where you could send me your opinions, bugs, review, requests, etc

More than 400 dw and nothing?!
This k910 community is asleep or something?!
Does this ROM support Google Voice direct dialing?
Thanks much for your work. I would like to give this a try. Before doing so, I have a quick question - does it support Google Voice direct dialing? I mean, after installing the Google Voice app and choose the option "Use Google Voice to make all calls," will a call then be dialed out using Google Voice?
I ask this question because Lenovo must have done something to break this desired behavior. What happens on the Lenovo official ROM is: an error message of "call not sent" is displayed, and the native dialer keeps dialing out, so the receiving party will see the phone number associated with the SIM card, but not the Google Voice number.

@wxppro
I'm sure that issue still remain in this version since i didn't change anything related with that.
That's s.th i don't use so...
If you try this rom and if that bug is present please report on "bug report" and i'll look into that in the next version
So does this ROM come with google services and root or do I need to install those after flashing the ROM?
This one is w/o both but tomorrow will be available a new version

Please keep on update clean version.
This is the fastest and longest battery life for my K910.
My current config which is very stable is...
i install this version plus lenovo theme center from AROMA (need it for disable annoying bubble lockscreen)
i use Titanium backup to uninstall LeNote and Lenovo calendar.
i apply GPS patch from Tedulus.
i tried 2.5.1 but i believe that DPI config drain battery and i prefer to have stock font than custom font from author.
New version available today
Please check THIS thread for new versions!!!

First of all I've got to give thanks where it's due: I would not have been able to get this far if it weren't for @Niropa's excellent guide found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-how-to-compile-roms-zenfone-2-t3205312/ I'd never have been able to make this guide. There's a lot of great stuff there, but I think it's now out of date.
Here's the link to the quip document where I'm putting together the guide:
https://quip.com/BO2dAOEvDGXd
Once again:
1) This guide wouldn't exist if it weren't for @Niropa.
2) It's my intention for this guide to be the kernel of a build script that can grab sources, then build:
-CM 12.1
-CM 13.0
-Maybe some other android stuff, but I don't know, because the real gold to me is.....
-Ubuntu Touch (If I can make it work, I bet it screams with 4gb of memory....)
-Tizen
-Firefox OS
.....I can now check CM-12.1 @ Z00A off the list of stuff to port. I hope to get all of these downloading, updating, and building from the same script or set of scripts for Z00A, and then I will work on making those scripts work with all of the Cyanogenmod devices. Yay!
I hope you know about the new whatsapp staus update feature.but how how cool if we can customize that.yes now you can.
List of features
1) disable status update
2)stay always online
3)video 2 gif converter
4)local backup
5)zoom profile pic
6)send any types of file
7)disable voice and video call
8)and much more......
It supports on official WhatsApp.no need to download any mod

How to report a bug/Ask for a change
Over the small amount of time I've been doing my edits and shared them with the community, I've noticed something that seems to irritate me. I can't speak for all the developers on this forum, but I do edits/ROMs/PORTs/etc... to what I like. I don't work for anybody else but me. I share my work because it may have something of value to other people and/or some people may share the same taste as me on regards to what they want on a ROM.
That being said, that doesn't mean I will completely ignore what the community has to say.
First and foremost, it must be said, I am merely a beginner. I do not claim to be a professional developer that knows how to add everything, I am nowhere close and I learn as I go.
There are ways to ask for something and/or report a bug when it comes to ROMs, and this post is my attempt to try to explain how to (and how not to) report a bug in order to help me out as much as possible to try to fix something
You can also ask for something to be added, but there are also ways to ask for something
So, here we go
Keep in mind:
I do not add stuff that can easily be downloaded from the Playstore
I, myself, don't do kernel edits
I COULD remove stuff if NOBODY uses it
---REPORTING BUGS---
How NOT to report a bug:
"SystemUI (or any app)is crashing, please help!"
"Instagram doesn't allow me to edit my post, what could be wrong?"
"My bank account app is not letting me do such thing"
These posts are sort of pointless as they only state something but I have no context on what could be causing it. Also, I can't really control (for the most part) third-party apps, so if you're going to ask about them this way, don't even bother
A slightly better way to report a bug:
"I clean installed the ROM and was working fine, after I installed Facebook and logged in, I immediately uploaded a photo and SystemUI started to crash. Can you look in to it?"
"I tried to install Black Neon theme (a link to it would work as well) and it was working fine until I tried to activate AOD (or anything else for some reason) and SystemUI (or any other app) is crashing, could you look in to it?"
"My bank account app doesn't let me take a screenshot of my accounts. I get a toast notification saying "Can't take screenshot due to security policy"
As you can see, this provides a bit more context and explanation on your current situation. This gives me a little more detail on trying to replicate the problem and hopefully could fix it by replicating it. Well, except for point #3 which is out of my hands for the most part (I think). If you include what kernel you're using would make everything better! Also any significant change that would require root (like xposed and or anything that modifies /system also needs to be informed for better results)
The BEST way to report a bug:
LOGCAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please learn the ins and outs of a logcat, this really helps a lot on finding what the problem is. Also, please give a brief explanation as the above examples when providing a log cat
---ASKING FOR STUFF TO BE ADDED---
How NOT to ask for stuff:
On your next update, add iris scanner
You should add (app) on your next update
Hey, please add (app or feature) on your next update
No, I do not work for you. Even if you say please like the third example, that doesn't mean you're being polite. It still sounds like an order lol so you should probably rephrase your request.
How to ask for stuff to be added to my work:
Would you be so kind to add (feature) to your ROM, if possible?
Would it be possible to add this app to your ROM?
Please, can you add (feature) to your ROM, if it isn't much to ask?
See how politeness makes everything better? You're not demanding it, you're just politely asking to see if maybe it is within my grasp to add something. And if all request would be like this, I can assure you I'd try my best to add said feature
I hope this is useful to you or I at least hope that some people read it.
If not, I can just tell you to return to stock ROM, probably better than any ROM I put out anyway
-reserved2-
-one more-
My opinion
The best rom for j2 prime i recommended for all j2 prime users
A lot of thanks for all the developers?
Here we go.Keep it up.I hope you can shade faith on J2 Series and do something great in future.Good luck and again never give up.
Gonna try this one mate.
Gracias hermano!

You can flash this kernel through TWRP (create a backup first, please)
Then wipe dalvik and cache
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410932744536996525
How to flash boot.img through TWRP:
1.- Select Install
2.- Select Install Image on the bottom right hand corner
3.- Select boot.img
4.- Select Boot and swipe to confirm flash
5.- Wipe dalvik and cache
(Don't forget to re-root)
Should get adb back

How much space is left on data partition? currently i'm on stock G532MUMU1AQH1 Panama ROM and i can get 3.2GB free on data partition after factory reset and uninstalling pre-installed games.

2.3 GB after fresh install.
But I've heard that some users have used an app (that I am not allowed to mention in XDA) to re-odex the ROM and get an additional 1 GB of storage.
Should be plenty of information going around
