Experienced by trial, error and bricks, it was found that starting approximatelysince the fall of 2016, and already 100% from the winter and beyond 2016 \ 2017 sold devices began to go with a new revision of the screen and \ or touchscreen . It was found out because of one of the users, and then an avalanche of many at once, when flashing any "of old" TWRP, laid out until April 22, 2017 (and new ones are posted in this post ), as well as any custom and stock firmware, except for 30666, there was an artifact in the form of a screen with color stripes and ripples. There was nothing or almost nothing on such screens. Only the drain firmware saved 30666 in the form of a packfile with lenovo-forums.ru . You can read this fascinating thriller (and even for those who have a completely new device) here: Lenovo A1000 - Firmwares (Fasting RZcT # 57917459) Through logical conclusions and experiments it was established that this firmware is 30666, and only it is universal for all revisions. And the firmware below it is suitable only for older devices made before the time specified above. The bottom line is that, starting from 30666, the manufacturer slightly tweaked the new core so that on any revision and any firmware there were no bars on the screen.

In short, the problem with TVRP is solved, new TVRP, suitable for ALL revisions, hang in the cap, no one else will be in the TVRP anymore. As for the possibility of flashing old firmware on the devices of new revisions, it is not so simple, although it is not at all difficult.

This appeal is tofor beginners Topics. If you have recently logged in, and \ or have not done a full TWRP backup yet, then you should take on trust that immediate creation of a full TWRP backup - action, absolutely necessary for you, if you are going to do ANY more or less serious manipulations with the device. The experience of numerous participants in the topic who did not do this, as well as their subsequent torment with IMEI recovery suggests that TWRP backup solves the vast majority of any problems, including turning the device and damage IMEI. It is often impossible even for the radical method of flashing to restore IMEI - with the help of the program Research Download - and your own TWRP backup can ALWAYS do it. Do not put yourself at risk, going to the service center, to waste and nerves - do not be lazy, and immediately after reading these lines make a full TWRP backup immediately ! How to do this - look here in this detailed post: Lenovo A1000 - Firmwares (Post nemo-nemo # 57420760)
