If you already have root, this update will work ... but under CWM will not work.

Added Stock KPO Recovery update on 1st post.

Thank you!

hey can anyone make stock recovery of DDKQ5 firmware

Is the Stock Recovery from KPN or any other 2.3.3 that much different from the KPO one ? Would it perhaps even be possible to flash this Stock Recovery on any 2.3.3 ?
Edit: Well i took my chances and just flashed the Stock Recovery on my 2.3.3 KPN. It worked. So if you you need a Stock Recovery you can use this one.

Quick question: on which kernel this ROOT is based ?

hello
is that it works on firmware XXKPO?
My phone is with the method upd.zip rooter.
thank you

A700FD Odin Flashable Stock Recovery File Needed

Hi mates. My friend tried to root his A700FD with CF Autoroot but he was on 4.4.4 and he caused a bootloop cause of the lollipop recovery installed. Now I need a KitKat stock recovery to flash through Odin but I can't find one. And my bandwidth is so limited that I can't download a stock rom for him. Can one of you guys extract your rom zips and give me a recovery img or change it to an Odin Flashable one? I'm very glad if you guys could do it for me.

C'mon guys just extract your rom and give me that recovery is that so hard?!

No I don't. I couldn't find one. I just want to boot the device. That's why I need the recovery file. It's likely that all of the custom recoveries are for 5.0.2 firmware version.

[Closed] I have to finally download stock for a 12 mB file!!
OK likely non of you guys are willing to extract your rom zips for me. I will force my friend to download it. Anyway tnx for the answers.

Just flash it normally

wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik. then flash it like usual.

Will my device(lenovo a6000) brick if I downgrade from 5.0.2 to cm11?

No it won't get bricked.
Just take a backup of the current ROM using recovery before flashing CM 11.

1. Flash ED300's Rollback .zip from here. (Source Thread by ED300.)
2. Flash your desired KK based ROM.

If you direct flash it then your devise stuck on lenovo logo .

got hard bricked when flashing directly
and wasted 150 rs in service center

Use TWRP recovery 2.7 if you wanna flash any KK ROM.
Boot into recovery. Make backup of System ( in case you changed your mind and wanted to roll back )
Goto Wipe--> Advance wipe. Then wipe out System, Data, Cache n Dalvik cache.
Goto install, flash the ROM, and gapps. It would work fine
P.S. the instructions provided by the developer of the ROM.

Would the stock OTA update cause any issues for UK 3 Branded phones?
The official update for us is going to be a while I think.
TIA ?
Would warranty still be intact as well?

Thank you and me

You should try it.I don't think it will affect your warranty because it is an official ota zip.This zip only checks if your phone is marshmallow or not, if it is mm, then it should flash properly.

I had to use SuperSU 2.79 to get proper (systemless) root, maybe this helps anyone. 2.78 got me rooted but my SIM didn't work with it.

The update is probably detecting the 3 version as a different rom so it wont install . If you flash to S048 row rom , let it update to S062 then you should receive the OTA update to nougat

wzedlare could you change your post to tell people to rename the stock rom from - P2a42_S062_170117_ROW_TO_P2a42_S232_170320_ROW_WC00AFB1F4.zip to UPDATE.zip
It will save lots of people saying it wont flash

If you flash any of the stock ROMs, will it affect a bootloader unlock timer that is in progress with Lenovo? Will it get reset or fail to activate in some way?

When you apply to unlock the bootloader the phone contacts Lenovo over the internet , so the countdown timer runs from their end . so your safe to reset , upgrade etc
