Hi Andy.
My Lenovo K900 has Bricked. Can't power on.. No vibrate, no black screen, not detected while I connect in my PC. What I can do? Sorry if my English is semerawut. Thanks before.. 🙂
try reflash, solution to fix brick is re flash if it soft brick but if your Lenovo K900 hard brick mean there is hardware failure than you cannot do anything bring to lenovo service center.
Yeah, right.. My K900 is Hardbrick.. 🙁 okay, thanks for your fast respons, Andy. Matur suwun so much.. 😀
your welcome, thank your for visit and leave comments
hi Andy,
my lenovo k900 has botlooping after installed whatsapp on playstore. what should i do to fix it?
thanks
First try to go recovery and do factory reset.
If it because install what app then i guess factory reset will fix it
language portuguese ok?????
Yes, international ROM contains portuguese language
kalo stuck 39% gimana om?
try to re flash again, but usually stuck make your device brick.
so try to re flash, if cannot turn on or cannot re flash again then you must bring your device to Lenovo center told that after update become brick
Process TIMEOUT Failed to execute "fastboot -s Medfield73C79D95 erase factory"
have you unlock your fastboot ??
i got this error –[FAILURE] OS flash failure fastboot -s MedfieldAA1B28CE -S 100M flash system "I:K900_ROW_1_S_2_009_0131_130727_EasternEurope_DVT3_CPUsign_fullsystem.img.gz"
why?
Have you unlock the bootloader first? I think it because the bootloader is locked so you cannot install tje rom
kondisi k900 saya layar mati tapi 3 key dibawah masih nyala kalau saya pencet power on. sdh coba flash gagal di 4% bagaimana bisa unlock bootloader? atau where should i start?
What status when you connect your device to computer? Are device still recognize by the computer

knp tu?? gk kedetek hpnya
adb driver must be installed first, search on google for installer
om andy saya stuck di 9% solusinya gimana?
Usually stauck os because the usb vcom driver not installed properly or because the cable, check it again and make sure everything is ok
