    Custom Roms for Lenovo A2010
    All credit for these ROMs goes to the guys from the 4pda..ru forum: Flasher_23, vif1, SnowCatPDA Temik23455 and others.

    AOSP:

    This one I ported myself, from an AOSP ROM for Oukitel K6000.

    1. Download link: https://yadi.sk/d/IDcbobIQqU9hs
    Copy the zip file to the External or Internal SD card in your phone (or download it directly with the phone).

    2. Reboot into TWRP recovery as described above (Rooting - step 6).

    3. Backup the NVRAM partition, in case you haven't done so already. Copy the backup file to a safe place. This will allow you to easily restore your IMEI, in case it gets lost during the flashing process.

    Even better, do a full backup of the whole system, so you can restore it later.

    4. While still in TWRP, do a factory reset (Wipe) and then install the zip file you downloaded in step 1.

    5. Reboot.





    CyanogenMod 12.1:
    Mobile data working now.
    Bugs:
    Location not working.
    WiFi hotspot not working.
    The computer doesn't see the connected phone.
    Some other more or less minor bugs...

    6. Reboot.


    Cubot X15:
    This ROM seems to be a port from Cubot X15.
    Works pretty well, I haven't found any bugs yet.

    The usual warning: I am not responsible if something goes wrong...
    But it would be almost impossible for you to totally brick your phone by following this procedure.

    Rooting Lenovo A2010

    1. Download the SuperSU zip file, for installing root through custom recovery: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu (latest) or http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu-stable (stable) and copy it to the SD card in your phone (or download it directly with the phone). Do not extract any files from the zip file, you will use it as it is.

    2. Download a custom Recovery like TWRP for Lenovo A2010: https://yadi.sk/d/0WaK6e4Mkx5cx
    Extract the files from the archive to your PC. In fact you need only 2 files, "Recovery.img" and "MT6735M_Android_scatter.txt"

    3. Windows: Install the MTK VCOM USB driver, if it's not already installed on your computer: https://yadi.sk/d/c4o7TaGLreNzx , extract the files from the archive to a folder in your PC, then install the driver.

    One way to install the driver is to turn off your phone, remove the battery, start the Device Manager in Windows, then connect the phone to the computer with a USB cable. A device called "MT65xx Preloader" will appear for a couple of seconds in Device Manager. Right click it before it disappears, select "Install driver", then "Have Disk" (the exact commands may vary depending on your Windows version), choose the folder where you extracted the downloaded archive.


    You can also download and run this driver auto installer program, which will install more drivers, not only the MTK VCOM driver: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/31d13c2d78d9/Driver_Auto_Installer_v1.1236.00.zip
    You may need to turn off driver signature verification though, as some of the drivers are not digitally signed.

    Linux: see this thread http://xdaforums.com/general/rooting-roms/tutorial-how-to-setup-spflashtoollinux-t3160802


    4. Download the program SP Flash Tool from here: http://spflashtool.com/ and just extract the files from the archive. No installation is needed.
    Depending on your Windows language, you might want to make sure there's no non-Latin characters in the path. If that is your case, a short path like C:\flashtool is the best choice.

    5. Run SP Flash Tool to install the custom Recovery.

    You can watch this Youtube video, the difference is that you will only have one file to flash, the Recovery file.
    You should also note that the phone has to be turned off, with or without battery, and at 0:35 in the video, when he clicks "Download", he then connects the phone to the computer.


    6. Reboot to Recovery by holding the Volume Up button pressed while the phone is booting.
    In the boot menu that appears, move the selection cursor to the [Recovery Mode] option, by using the Volume Up button, then press the Volume Down button to select that option.
    You should now get into TWRP Recovery, that you flashed in step 5.

    7. From TWRP Recovery, install the previously downloaded file (UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.xx.zip).

    8. Reboot. Your phone is now rooted.

    Method #2 (no PC needed):
    The latest version of KingRoot seems to be working on Lenovo A2010.
    After rooting you can install TWRP through rashr.

    But if you have a PC and can install SP Flash Tool, I would still recommend the first method above.

    FiraUI for Lenovo A2010

    cerHOJ6.png

    Fira UI is based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and the Linux kernel. It was built to comply with an Indonesian regulation requiring 40% minimum local content on all 4G LTE smartphones sold in Indonesia starting in 2017. Introduced on January 28, 2016, it was forked from Android and installed on newer Polytron smartphones since 2016.

    ROM is ported from Polytron Rocket 4G C1. Not rooted. Gapps already included.

    MORE SCREENSHOTS

    Tips:
    - Install as usual (wipe factory reset then install the zip). Use FRP fix when necessary.
    - Internal storage location is in /data/media. Default write disk is already set to SD card
    - Preferred install location for apps is set to SD card to optimize phone storage. However, due to PlayStore limitation, you have to set it to Internal device storage if you want to use PlayStore.
    - Sometimes the launcher icons moved/missing after a reboot. In case of missing app icon, clear launcher data (FiraUI.apk)

    Any new updates for CM.
    ........
    Is it really possible that we will get MIUI?
    I don't think so.
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    No updates.
    BTW, the guy who was porting CM for A2010 was banned from the Russian forum, but he's still posting here.

    And anyway, if I'm not mistaken, this CM was ported from Oukitel http://xdaforums.com/android/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-k10000-t3320553
    If there's a major update there, soon there's going to be an updated port too. Or you can port it yourself.
