Some Questions

Hello guys,
Well i just bought a Lenovo K5 2GB variant a6020a40, and i am searching xda and internet for rooting, recovery and bootloader but i don't get this things. If anybody can clarify it and help me in getting it, thanks a lot.
1. How many variants are there is there any difference between them?
2. Mine is a6020a40, so if i flash things of a6020a46 will it make a difference. Because both are a6020.
3.what is the difference between a6020a40 and a6020a46.
4. Do we need to unlock bootloader for rooting and recovery.
5. How many types of processors are used in both variants k5 and k5 plus.
6. Mine is sd 615 as cpu z and aida64 says, but the box and online description says it must have to be sd616, is there any problem with my phone.
Thanks in advance.

Anybody, please.........

I am waiting guys, pls answers

So should i assume that nobody want to give answers, i cant wait anymore to root my phone

So flashing a6020a40 stock firmware or roms or things on a6020a46 have no effect, or vice versa

1) Some models have 2GB and others 3GB of RAM. FM receiver appear be different between some models. Using AOKP firmware, FM radio not work on l36 variant.
4) Have one topic for TWRP in this forum and yes, bootloader can be unlock in the first time for install recovery.
6) Have some variations of processor, but are compatible and the main difference appear be display resolution. 720p in s416 and 1080p in s616.
In the Brazil exist only the version s616, but the name of smartphone is only K5 (no have Plus denomination).

It will effect

Always have a TWRP backup of your native ROM and then you can try, almost all Roms are for the Snapdragon K5 plus variants.

How to enable VoLTE in Vibe P1 ? & not Vibe P1m or Turbo

I read many post on XDA some says install stock ROM of Marshmallow to activate VoLTE on Vibe P1 some says no update yet there is a complete mess on the forum, for the first time and for the last time I am requesting all the Vibe P1 users and all techy master guys Please answer this one simple question is there anyway... seriously.... any way to activate VoLTE on Vibe P1 ? not the Turbo or P1m but "Lenovo Vibe P1" YES or NO ? please answer so that I could decide if I need to buy and new phone or I could get VoLTE feature on VIBE p1 cause seriously I hate using Reliance Jio App to make calls, I seriously don't like the interface and feel like a waste of time.
Guys I am counting on you, this is my first ever post on XDA and I hope you guys will be generous enough to reply, waiting for your reply friends.
Regards _/\_

As of now there is no custom Rom have been made with VoLte support for lenovo vibe P1 or P1 Turbo. I am not a developer but I have researched a lot on this VoLte problem. There are so many request made for VoLte for p1 yet there is no update by Lenovo India and on Lenovo forum it says they are not going to provide VoLte update for p1. Some XDA developers tried to put VoLte modem files in p1 but they were unsuccessful. I even tried flashing the Chinese Vibe UI official rom (Chinese vibe p1 is p1c58 or p1c72) which has VoLte but it failed i don't know why. In future i don't know either lenovo India is going to provide any update or not. It's just better to sell and buy a new phone and never buy Lenovo phones because they don't provide any update after launching a phone in the market.

We don't have VoLTE modem for our device. If you want VoLTE then spam Lenovo through twitter with #volte tag and constantly mail them or ask them through Customer Chat service.

Its not working . that solution by @gunjandeep.singh or @Savji is complete waste. I wasted two days on that solution doing multiple flashing on my phone all to complete waste. i am back on my stock rom s288 and i can say that the battery backup on stock rom is much much better than it was on AEX-v3.3 on my vibe p1a42.

Hi I am also using ASOP extended ROM. But I am searching for ROM which enables volte in Lenovo vibe p1a42. If anyone knows about this kindly let me know.

I am also facing same issue.. Lenovo community has clearly stated that they will not be providing volte update for vibe p1..
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/P1-P1m-P70-P90-Series/VoLTE-in-Vibe-P1/m-p/3519369#M12845
I also asked if xda devs could port motorola x-Play rom to vibe as both are very similar phones (specs and most of hardware) -- no tweaks but just plain vanilla port -- so that we can get OTA updates when motorola released them and get volte as well but that was a dead end as well. Link -->

I guess now a XDA Dev will have to come down to earth from violet sky to save the day.. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Guys Lenovo community clearly stated that they are not going to release VOLTE update for vibe P1 .neither xda developers can do anything about it because the update must come from Lenovo team only. So sell this crap out and get a new phone.

Airtel, Vodafone VoLTE support on stock/custom Z2 plus possible?

Even though z2 plus supports VoLTE (Jio works fine), for some reason on Airtel and Vodafone 4g networks z2 plus is not supported for VoLTE.
Airtel and Vodafone however support VoLTE for many other phones like the Xiaomi mi5, redmi 4,5, one plus etc. In which case, is it not possible to figure out what it is that allows other phones to access VoLTE on these networks and then extract these necessary files/configurations from the ROM and install it in z2 plus stock or custom ROMs to enable support for VoLTE?

For me volte works fine.
BTW I am using Vodafone 4g

You are using a custom ROM right? Which one?
Would it be possible to create a flashable mod maybe to enable VoLTE (for Airtel and Vodafone) on the Stock ZUI ROM?

The effort and hassle you may take to make your device ready for flashing process is 90% of total work before using a Custom ROM.
Compare to ZUI, any Custom ROM is thousand times better.
Why not trying the entire thing then?
And if I am not mistaking, ZUI 4.0.xxx (stock / official) supports other network VoLTE. Given you are in a location or accessing a tower which is VoLTE capable and keeping your AirTel/Vodafone SIM card in your SIM Slot 1.
I don't think VoLTE may work with SIM Slot 2.
Thanks.

After flashing zui 4.xxx volte started working like a bang!
Then I flashed aex 6.0.
That's it.

Which ZUI version to be flashed and it should be official or custom and should be flashed via QPST or TWRP ?

See i just want to clarify that zuk z2 plus , supports volte on all networks. It depends on the sim type and the area you are located in.
See , i just tried that . my friends sim supports volte (Airtel) and when i put that sim in my phone(zuk) i could make calls over lte .
So try contacting airtel/network provider to get a sim swap.

I am using Z2 Plus with ZUI 2.5.104 ST and this version is unable to use VoLTE. I have put the same SIM card in a Redmi Note 4 and VoLTE works there. I have also contacted Airtel/Vodafone and their answer is simply update OS, no official support.
Since on Custom ROMs it seems to be working, I just want to know if it could be possible to make it work on the Stock one as well. If it is working on ZUI 3.5/3.7/4.0 versions like the deodexed one or RuMod then I could switch to it.
I like the bottom quick settings and U-touch too much, and it holds me back from changing to an AOSP ROM.

Regarding U-Touch, yes you can get similar options as in ZUI in Custom ROMs too by tweaking fpc1020tp.kl file.

Hmm, interesting.
You are from which circle? I am in Vodafone Mumbai but VOLTE not working for me. But then have been on custom ROMs for too long. In past Jio did work for me... had got it working on ZUI before flashing custom ROMs.

I flashed zui 3.5 and turned on volte and then updated to the zui 4.0.x and volte was working and after this process every other custom ROMs are working with Airtel volte.

Airtel VoLTE works on Stock ROM and Custom ROM
Hi,
Kindly check this :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78580727&postcount=6
I could not check it for ZUI 2.5 and ZUI 3.5, but saw it working for ZUI 4.0.199 and AEX 6.0
Not Sure if the signal strength is good, but at least VoLTE is working.
Regards,
Amit

I've done this method on pie roms but I think it's the issue of baseband. there won't be any problem or performance changes in swapping baseband, zui 3.5 qfil to zui 4 ota worked for me ,but don't forget to enable volte in zui 3.5 before updating to zui 4.0 . I can't confirm bcz I don't have aex 5.7 with me.

Hi Lakshmi, Can you check my post above. I have shared the steps which got me VoLTE in Stock as well as Custom ROM.

All recent ROMs support Airtel VoLTE. The problem isn't with our device but it's Airtels VoLTE implementation. Unlike Jio, Airtel only enables VoLTE if the imei of the device in which the Sim is inserted is one of the officially supported device. (List on their website)
What you can do is as follows:
1. Insert your Sim in one of the officially supported device like iPhone, one plus, etc.
2. Keep using the phone until VoLTE is enabled (it takes Airtel anywhere from a few minutes to a couple of hours to activate VoLTE on a new sim, even when inserted in a supported phone!)
3. Once VoLTE is enabled on your Sim, you can switch back to your z2 and it should start working.

Yeah, same with Vodafone too. I inserted my sim in redmi 4 and volte was not working and so i didn't knew this method of volte implementation so I reinserted my sim in z2 plus and told Vodafone on email that volte is not working for me(i didn't mentioned my device to them in the email). So they replied me that your device is lenovo z2132 which doesn't support volte officially.
Now I'll again insert my sim in redmi 4 to get volte working.
Thanks.
