Ok.

Do you know if it's possible to add call/phone features to this 1050L rom? I guess it can't be easy as extracting and installing few phone related apks from another rom (like 830LC), right?
Anything is possible - just enough to want (I do not want enough))).. You have to do it all the firmware (lib, vendor, frameworks etc), 100 times more simple flash 830lc

Introducing root directly in the firmware is a temporary solution, until we make CWM-recovery..
Firmware ROW - multilanguage! (International)
So, as all the models yoga2 have the same size partition system (it would be mmcblk0p13) that can flash system.mg from one version to another (at your own risk of course)
How do you do! I am a YOGA 830f users from China.Very happy to communicate with you!
Previously, I successfully extracted su and supersur.apk,and managed to get root privilege, thank you very much for sharing. Now I have my share out!
I'm afraid you can not open the page, so I will upload page packed in the annex.
Now, as you say, we can not stop! We want to adaptation CWM!
I share what I found :
By comparison file, I found all versions of firmware core of yoga is the same, which means that you can write to any one version, annd in fact has been verified.
when I use CM11 source made recovery.img, and write up my tablet 830f, but when prompted to enter, it tips:"Signature verification failed!"
So I think there is a boot.img signature verification, but I can not find where it is. Can you help me ?
Also, when I use the official source to re-create in CM11, tips shown:

What should I do ? I've updated gcc, but useless.

The CWM has compiled rustik2005 here, but I had the same problem with the signing intel. Try to see if you can find some tool to sign here and here
archive official source is damaged, I downloaded several times (missing files inside the folder "kernel")

Thanks bodivas for the 830F file. Now to flash it all i need to use is phone flash tool correct?
I installed the system img from the first post which wasnt correct for my device. Am i able to undo this simply by doing the same process with a new system file?
Opened the rar file and found more than just the system file. are there other steps needed to make this work?

EDIT:
Flashed boot recovery and system img. Still rooted,
When using apps that requires internet access, connection to wifi is stable almost like it is super laggy.( it takes about three seconds to receive a message from my other tablet.)
BTW why shouldnt I flash 830L img?

Hi bodivas,
thanks for the 830F file.
Flashed this file on 1050F and everything seems to be working except camera.
The camera view is rotated 90 degrees. I tried another camera application from Google Play, but behaves exactly the same way.
Any idea how to fix it? :)

EDIT:
If you have the same problem, here's the solution:
Change this in file /system/etc/camera_profiles.xml:
<orientation value="0"/>
This needs to change in both <Profiles cameraId = "0"> and <Profiles cameraId = "1">

How does it look with native support for NTFS and exFAT on SD cards? ;)

I know this is a bit off topic, but I thought with people mentioning updates, I might sneak it in (or someone might know about a future update. ). When anything is dark on the screen (like a film for example) the screen will go even darker as if the notification bar is open or something. It like double dims. Any one else have this?

maybe it's for battery saving reasons :confused:
