Important information!

A moment of attention!

Determine which device you have.
If the built-in memory is 8 GB, then sew the firmware for the A850I
If the built-in memory is 4 GB, then sew the firmware for the A850
If the built-in memory is 4 GB, but the April revision apparatus and Linerty are not sewn, then you sewThis firmware

  • Firmware for the Russian region (ROW)differ from other versions by the breakdown of internal memory , and therefore it is necessary to use separate versions of CWM / TWRP recovery (ROW, not CN) - More details:Lenovo A850 - Firmware (Post # 29818397)
  • For phones sold in China and phones sold outside of it, different firmware of the radio module are used! There are also several versions of the firmware of the radio module for non-Chinese countries.More details:Lenovo A850 - Firmware (Post # 29808912)

    Firmware via SP FlashTool
    1. Download and install drivers for firmware.
    2. Download the required firmware in the format for the SP Flash Tool from the Firmware section for your device and unpack the archive with the target_bin folder. There should not be Russian Chinese and other non-Latin characters on the way to the firmware!
    3. Download and unpack the program SP Flash Tool. No need to chase the latest version, it is recommended to use the version recommended by the manufacturer (it is also usually present in the archive with factory firmware). There should not be Russian Chinese and other non-Latin characters on the way to the program!
    4. Run Flash_tool.exe, press the Scatter-loading button and select MT65xx_Android_scatter_emmc.txt (xx is 75, 77 or 89 and depends on the processor of your device) from the folder with the firmware
    5. Be sure to tick DA DL All With Check Sum (otherwise get a "semi-brick") !!!
    6. Check the modes in the Options menu, there should be a check mark in USB Mode and DA Download All
    7. Click the Firmware-Upgrade button.
    8. Connect the switched off phone
    9. If everything is correct, then the colored status bars will “run through” and a green circle will appear, informing you of the success of the operation.
    10. Turn off the phone, use.
    - If it is necessary to flash only one partition, for example, recovery, then in step 8 we press DOWNLOAD and agree upon request
    - And then follow the instructions. (In the Firmware-Upgrade mode, one partition can not be flashed!)

when you turn it on, hold down the volume button up and down + power button, or download the rum manager, looking for what wipes are for.

on lenovo-forums there is still such firmware with the Russian languageA850 S116_ROW_130922



Rep: (3)
Please make separate instructions for installing CWM Recovery, and TWRP, for those who do not want to change the firmware, it would be just great! Yes, and archive MT65xx_Android_scatter_emmc.txt with recovery.img, so as not to download the entire firmware, as far as I understand correctly (SP Flash Tool program). Alternative methods for installing moderation?



Rep: (167)
sekassa, If you do not want to change the firmware, you do so. Download firmware say A850_GB_by_linerty 10/23/2013 unpack it, run the program Flash_tool.exe ->Push the button Scatter-Loading ->go to the folder with the firmware in the subfolder target_bin select the file MT6582_Android_scatter.txt ->Check the box DA DL ALL WITH Cheksum (although it may not be necessary for Recovery, but I set) ->in a programme Flash_tool you remove all the jackdaws except RECOVERY , preloader turns red , do not pay attention ->we press Download (Download and notfirmware ->Upgrade) -> OFF we connect the smartphone to the computer via USB. The firmware will start automatically. You can connect without a battery, you can just turn it off, I connected without a battery.

Guys need firmware on Lenovo A850 through sp flash tools with merging partitions and through it (flash tools) flash ONLY EBR1 and EBR2 files. Then I get the normal ROM markup, i.e. in the file manager there will be only an SD card, and the phone’s memory will go under internal software ... while I have grief with a flash drive ((((

How to save this NVRam?
NVRAM Recovery
The phone came from China on Chinese-English firmware, I flashed it with firmware A850_RUS_linerty_1.0 everything is fine, then I flashed A850_RUS_by_linerty 10/23/2013 everything is ok too, then I flashed it off. There is no problem with the A850 firmware S121_ROW_131012 either, but I didn’t like the firmware, I patched the A850_RUS_by_linerty on 10/23/2013 and the IMEI databases flew, so it’s better to save NVRam.

I quote
linerty 'timestamp =' 1385668785*
Today I did not have time to make a beautiful design and a separate topic. I had to check it even 5-7 hours ago, but could not. Job.


Differences from the previous version of A850_23.10.2013_ENG_by_linerty:
  • Markup from the Chinese, i.e. 700MB on / system, 1.5Gb on / data, 1.23 on / sdcard. Stupid / preload no.
  • When you switch the recorder to the SD card by default, applications are installed / transferred specifically to the external card. Game caches download to an external card. In order for the camera to save photos / videos to an external card, it is necessary to switch "Save to" "SD card" in the Camera settings.
  • Flashlight added (why it wasn’t clear ... :), LenovoMusic, MobileUncleTools.
    Added, but will be deleted upon reset (it hasn’t fit into the system anymore): Adfree, Chrome, SHAREit, Skype, UC Browser.
  • Entrance points to the Engineering menu and Factory menu have been added to the developer’s settings. (Developer settings are enabled as usual: Poke on "Build Number" many times).
  • Search in the address bar is corrected from canoes on google.
  • Battery with percent. Interest is not in the center of the battery but with a bias, this is normal, do not be afraid. Of course, you could enter the numbers in the battery, but believe them then you will not see. There will be patches for alternative batteries later.
  • Updated Calendar, Contact Manager.
