Is it really necessary to root this phone? It even has an autostart manager in Settings > Power Mgmt.
And less crapware and bloatware...

Root is needed for other stuff..
Like AdBlock, full support of AutomateIt, etc.
Bloatware can be easily uninstalled after first run.

@smake Hello mate. congrats. could u please elaborate the procedure how to install p1c72 rom in p1a42 and then how to root it?. thank u in advance.
download and install:
LenovoUsbDriver_autorun_1.0.16.exe
Qualcomm_USB_Drivers_Windows.rar
QPST.WIN.2.7 Installer-00429.zip
and extract the ROM to some folder in your PC

turn off your device, hold down volume up button and connect it to pc
in device manager, in section ports must be "qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 (comsome)"
run qfil, check it the com port is selected, select flat build, select prog_emmc_firehose_8936.mbn in prog path, rawprogram_unsparse.xml and patch0.xml in search path
finally click on download
after reboot copy kingroot to device and install it

I have downloaded this rom but I can't flash it with QFIL :( , maybe now kingroot works on p1c72 with p1a42_ROM too?
ROMs are compatible on both devices. only difference between p1c72 and p1a42 devices are RAM and ROM sizes
