any stock based rom?

Hi folks.

I searched the topic but not find anything about any stock based custom rom for p1a42. A rom which all bloatware removed, only core apps included and maybe some little tweaks added would be nice.

Sorry for bad english. Thanks in advance.

I have P1c58 with VIBEUI_V3.1_1627_5.195.1_ST_P1c58 firmware and would like to install a "ROW" ROM.
Can you please confirm that you have successfully installed P1a42_S135_151013_ROW ROM on P1c58 hardware?

This is how i root my P1a42 after so many failed due to too many error encounters including "too many links", If you follow these step correctly you will succeed rooting your phone

1. Download P1a42_S288_160721_ROW_RAW_QFIL (Find from google or within xda work a bit to success)
2. Flash this Row using QFIL with normal setting (do backup because this will for sure delete all your files)
This time flash with "rawprogram0"

3. reboot your phone and skip everything and turn it back off to flash using QFIL again but this time under the XML setting choose "rawprogram0_aboot+twpr" hold your VOL+ button to prevent the mobile from blocking you editing the system files

4A. Try boot to recovery now to see if you succeed if you are still in the normal recovery follow step below, if you succeed then follow step 5

4B. Now download the tools below:-

a. ADB tools (as usual you can find it from google try these keyword "how to flash using ADB")
b. TWRP recovery img i use twrp_passion_row_recovery_.img (as usual google it)
c. copy the twrp img into the adb tools folder and click CTRL+SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK in that folder and choose "Open Command WIndow Here"
d. MAKE SURE YOUR DEBUGGING MODE IS ON AND YOUR USB IS CONNECTED TO YOUR PHONE AND PLEASE ALLOW DEBUGGING MODE FROM YOUR PHONE AND REMEMBER YOUR PC/LAPTOP
e. type commands below
adb devices
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem device-info

At this point you should make sure that your adb window is telling you as below

(bootloader) Device tampered: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true

If not your device is locked then type

fastboot oem unlock

if you are unable to unlock it please google how to unlock them first

after you have successfully unlocked your oem type the command below

fastboot boot twrp_passion_row.img

5. now you should wait a few second till you phone boot into TWRP then you can install SUPERSU (download the zip from xda and copy it into your internal storage)

after done, reboot and then go back to ADB and type command below

adb devices
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery twrp_passion_row.img

and now yor recovery is permanently become TWRP, please do as the step above because if you do the other way around, it will not work, you must boot to twrp and install SuperSU first before flashing permanent TWRP recovery (Only for those who are unable to flash TWRP using QFIL)

i hope this help, i spent a month back and forth like an idiot with no success, just hoping nobody else do the same mistake as me
Finally... this method worked for me when none of the others did. Thanks a million, you're a life saver.

I tried flashing the rom given in very first post, several times, but after flashing, I was bombarded with errors saying "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped working" along with several others popup error messages. And no matter how many times you close them, it keeps popping back up. After combing through the entire thread and trying everything, this worked for me.

I followed the exact same process as you have mentioned. Once the process was finished the lenovo p1a42 reboots and displays: "Optimizing apps 1 of 130", ok so the apps optimization completes. Now some errors start popping up saying "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped working", "Unfortunately the nfs service has stopped", "Unfortunately the Notification center has stopped". These three errors are too annoying and are killing me from inside. There is no background in the back just a dark color and the errors popping up. I still have the hope to fix this by using the stock rom but the process includes flashing which means I really have to wipe data out. There are some picture of my holiday trip in the internal memory which I don't want to get deleted. And Whatsapp messages of friends including old memories. If there is anyway I can still install twrp and try to move the data out using the filemanager in it. Please help me how to install it. Thanks :crying:
I too faced this problem.
I think there is no solution to this other than to flash the stock rom with QFIL.
If you are stuck at boot screen, you will need to power down the device so that you can flash the stock rom. You can forcibly power-off the device use this method - https://forum.xda-developers.com/vibe-p1/how-to/force-off-lenovo-vibe-p1-t3604779
