The Lenovo K8 Note is a mid-range device from Lenovo (which was released along the Lenovo K8 plus and Lenovo K8 ), which looks like to be an absolute steal for the money. Couldn't find much about it here on XDA, so decided it was time for a general thread until it gets it's own section on XDA.

Full spec list and features here : https://www3.lenovo.com/in/en/smartphones/smartphone-k-series/Lenovo-K8-Note/p/WMD00000338

How to root Lenovo K8 Note? Head over to this thread : https://xdaforums.com/android/development/tutorials-how-to-root-lenovo-k8-note-t3685502

TWRP : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8WbEJ1ZXbsvenhuSlBCMm42X1E credits to @ysalunke007(make sure to give him a thumbs up).

Kernel source : https://googleweblight.com/i?u=[url]https://github.com/MT6797/kernel-3.18&grqid=Uh3TpuKM&hl=en-IN[/url]

There's no section yet, just this thread. This phone deserves it's own section though! It is incredibly good value for money.

Go here and post that you want this phone to have its own section, hit that thanks button for anyone suggesting a Lenovo K8 Note - and with time, persistance and enough interest we should have our own section. :)

Share your thoughts and questions below!

update kernel source link
:D

when the screen goes black wait for about 30 secs and then press power button once
So i tried this, waited 30 sec, same black screen nothing more. But, when I waited for one minute, a random twrp screen appeared, and then disappeared. (screenshot below). And then again black screen. Also, this twrp screen was upside down for some reason.

Might be some bug since it has been ported from another device. If you can access the TWRP then cancel when it asks you to enter password and then go to wipe and format data
