Can anyone post a ROW version of the rom please, i have updated my device to the latest rom using the OTA provided with the phone which seems to be the chinese version of the rom and now Play store is not working anymore. My current rom is VIBEUI_V2.8_1539_5.503.1_ST_P1c72. Before update i had something like 439 ( don't remember exactly) thanks.

Above is custom ROM P1a42_S135_151013_ROW - based on ROM for Lenovo Vibe P1a42 - ( a 2GB RAM fork of P1c72 model ) - made by russians
Works perfect for last 3 days no lag no FC
Full Google integration and apps
Working OTA
No root.
All european languages except ( :confused: ): polish and german
Flash with Qfil

Everything works except NFC

If any developer interested here is the open source code : https://download.lenovo.com/consumer/open_source_code/lenovo_p1a42_osc_201509.zip

Thanks, I have already installed this one , might only by my impression but i think before the update when in power saving mode the estimated battery time was more then 100 hours and after it only shows max 80 hours at 100%. I wanted to test this again.

As of now no rooting app or tool is able to root this mobile as the bootloader is locked. I tried fastboot method to unlock bootloader but no luck. Request any developer to help or guide the rooting procedure. Thanks in advance

From the menu that appears after you dial *#*#4636#*#* in the top right corner there is a 3 dot menu than select radio band / usa band

Did you try the same thing to change it back?

You inside the website there is original firmware. Just flash it following the guidelines
