Just flash it normally

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

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.

In mean time try to flash stock ROM.

Did anybody built a rom for this one?

Nah, I was just able to make a flashable zip of the stock rom that works with TWRP, without the need to reflash stock-recovery.

And for those who want Xposed framework that works ( not the latest as they seem to interfere with emui ) https://mega.nz/#!6VckBKIT!t2DcF_m6bZMqP_bDCJyPGqJXinHZjBzj7RM96eJNXPE

[Q][HELP] A6000 1 GB RAM 8 GB ROM Variant

Hi, I'm new to Lenovo A6000. I have a relative that has a softbricked A6000. I wiped the phone via stock recovery, and no problems afterwards.
I wanted to flash custom ROMs for my relatives A6000, but I can't seem to flash the latest custom recovery (TWRP). It always fails. Never boots to recovery. I did some research here and there by reading in XDA and found some interesting things.
The question is:
What is the device that I'm using? How do I find out what it is? is it WT86518 or WT86528?
The phone's running on Stock KK ROM Kraft S037, Is there a problem on flashing custom recovery via fastboot when using this version of stockrom? Or there's something else wrong? Should I update it via OTA then try flashing it or is there an easier way of flashing it?
It's the old 2015 A6000. With 1 GB RAM and 8 GB ROM.
I'm pretty familiar with fastboot commands, so it's just weird that I can't flash TWRP in it. I even can't hotboot it (fastboot boot blabla.img).
Thanks before, please do reply.

So on which ROM are you just now

Thanks for the reply, mate! Thanks for the links too! But I'd prefer using TWRP than CWM. So what do I have to do to be able to use TWRP? Do I have to update stock rom to Lollipop first? Or does it mean TWRP isn't compatible at all?

One more question, do I have to like.. update the stock rom to lollipop or can I just use the 'Kitkat-lolipop firmware base switcher for a6000' method by @rahulsnair ? Thanks a lot mate for the info! :good:
*PS. I tried that version of TWRP firsthand before I posted this thread, so it means what made TWRP incompatible was because of the HH itself was still on old KK right?

Yeah exactly. Flash the firmware base switcher (for A6000 by rahulsnair and for A6000plus by me, sasukay).
Steps:
0. Flash the cwm or twrp 2.6.x (i guess) which works on KK
1. Then boot into custom recovery you've installed.
2. Then flash the firmware base switcher.
3. Now you can flash the latest twrp using fastboot which is meant for Lollipop and newer versions.

Thanks for the reply sasukay! Yeah! I had a hunch that the latest TWRP didn't boot was because of stock KK! I consulted to a friend that was using A6000 Plus before I did all of this, he told me he was on stock 'LP' when he flashed latest TWRP and he didn't tell me (or more like he didn't know) that the A6000 has to be on LP before flashing latest TWRP. Hope nothing goes wrong now. Wish me luck! :laugh: :good: :highfive: :fingers-crossed:

Why this rom won't falsh on my phone??

hi guys
i have j500f
i can flash other 5.1.1 roms but i can not flash this one !!
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-j5/SM-J500F/TGY/download/J500FZHS1AQC2/128474/
why ?

what you're trying to download is a firmware, not a rom. you can only use it when you trying to go back to stock or downgrade your phone back to 5.1.1(depends if your 6.0.1 firmware is compatible with that one). also there are crap ton of roms here so go explore

This is not a simple Custom Rom which you can flash through custom recovery like TWRP. This is a stock Samsung Firmware which can be flashed through Odin and not through a custom recovery.

Firmwares can only installed(flashed) using odin only...all roms that you are flashed using twrp are custom roms...as you are saying that you already flashed android 5.1...but even it is a custom rom(someone modified the stock rom)...but in sammobiles you will find only genuine stock roms...so they can only installed using odin

Why you want to downgrade? I ask you because i want to upgrade my phone to 7.1.

can i do the same on my Oreo 8.0.0 based on AOSP

I updated from KitKat to Nougat(RR 7.1.2 by devharsh) and I am not experiencing any issues.
If you are still on KitKat...I say go for it.

I did that once, because I thought that banking apps were easier to use on a phone, but old android is just soooo bad, I just couldn't stand it.
I tried running 4.4 for a while, but every time there was no signal, it just shut down. I tried upgrading to official 5.*, and it became extremely laggy. Tried different versions, but nothing worked better.
You can try it, but I don't recommend going back if you are already using 7.1 for a while, because you just get so much used to all of the functions.
If you want to try, first you have to get stock recovery because stock rom won't run from trwp.
I did it with the flashing utility, where you have to connect your phone and make it go to service mode.
