I don't need to prove any one any thing. Sort it your self or don't believe . simple as that.

Developer option / OEM unlocking is ticked on my phone.

Of course you do not need to prove anything, I'm just saying that if true, does not cost much to make a screenshot and put it here. Everything else is just talk.

Of course you don't have to , but it would be of great help if you did.
I would be very grateful to you if you could share more information with us.

Thats the very reason i made an ID . just to share the info i managed to root my device so it could help some one.

KingRoot 4.62 today released - not working, unsupported phone.
Overall requests to add support - 598pcs.
Tested it few minutes ago.

Mogral, your device is "suspicious", because VIBE P1 is P1a42, not P1c72 as on your pics!

It was not rooted and i expected Chinese language but they shipped with english to make things a lot more easy for me. OTA updates do not work nor can i see any update options in OS. but once it sync with lenovo smart assist i get updates but cannot install from lenovo recovery as it gives error at 24%. QFIL also no go as it gives sahara error when trying to flash ROW. So i am stuck with what i got from china.

I have the same phone, but if I could upgrade to the latest version. But the question is, what have rooted or not?

You are not running Row version.
You probably run a custom cn 2.8 rom.
The last version of the Row rom is p1a42_s145_151207_row
You need to flash the p1a42 rom on your p1c72 phone in order to use it.
I'm currently using it on my P1c72. but no root for that yet
In order to root you have to stay on any version of the 2.8 cn rom
Hope i made myself understood.

I took a backup of google play store from another phone on a sdcard and installed it on my p1c72. ( Just the play store ) and it worked.

Play store version 8.4.89 running on my device.
I am on vibe2.8
