This problem occur when you do not tick the usb checksum and storage checksum in spflash tool settings.
So tick these in settings

Hi there, i am trying to help a friend re-flash his Lenovo A7000-A phone back to stock firmware but it after reading about it, i've come to know that the phone has two types of firmware ROW-rest of the world version and one other which is probably chinese. i was wondering if that is true and where i could get the non-ROW version. your help would be much appreciated. thanks

Is there any option to update from S133 to S136 (for example) via SP Flash Tool without wipe any userdata - like OTA update?

 

[jonnieZG]

NOT GOOD. I have downloaded the Lollipop package from the link in the first post.
1. After applying it as described, the Home and Back button stopped working! Tried eMMC factory reset and did not help.
2. The OS occupied space still reported to be 3.13 GB, exactly the same as in Marshmallow!

Now I am trying to perform OTA update back to Marshmallow to see if the buttons would work again, even though I doubt they would...

BTW, in the Flash Tool >> Options >> Download >> there was just a single checkbox available: "DA DL All with Checksum" (version v5.1436.0, DA_v7.1436.00.000, libflashtool.so vBROM_DLL_v7.1436.01).

Hi friend, thanks for this tutorial.
I did all steps successfully, first as you said tick both options in download and done. But when I turned on phone see a Gary and white screen for a few second and then black, noting happened.
As you reply on another question like me I tried all steps but this time not tick the check box's in option. This time after turned on phone, just black screen. So again I do all steps as you said with tick in option. But again I face gray and white screen and noting loaded.

Can you help me on this ?

Tip: first time try this tutorial a face an error so I searched it and the answer was: first flash the device. So I flashed phone from flash tab in so flash tool then I tried this tutorial.

Thanks a lot for your time.

Hi! I succesfully downgraded my phone to android 5.0 lollipop. Everything works fine except my sd card -it says my sd is corrupted but that's not true because on android 6.0 marshmallow that sd worked. I also tried different sd card but nothing changed. I even tried to format sd card but it still doesn't work. Is there some way how to fix it ?
