All applications ,drivers and flash you have here (on my links on the top of this page). You can find and some utility USBDeview – it helps in case pc does not recognize your phone. If your PC doesn't recognize your phone(after you connect phone, nothing happens), use USBDeview.exe, and uninstall devices like MTP…, Preloader…. (right click on device, uninstall…) After that, install drivers ,flash tool…You not need rooting, only do steps 1.2.3.4:
1.install USB driver from Drivers.zip -> Install drivers -> flash drivers–auto install -> InstallDriver.exe .AFTER INSTALLING CONNECT YOUR PHONE, WINDOWS WILL SHOW MESSAGE SEARCHING FOR DRIVERS….DRIVER IS INSTALLED. YOU MUST SEE THIS MESSAGE. AFTER, DISCONECT PHONE FROM PC.SHUTDOWN PHONE!
2.unzip AIO_Upgrade_Tools_v5.1436.00.000.zip . In extracted folders you will find flash_tool.exe
3.Unzip K50-T5_USR_ST2511_5.444.1_1503111505-Lang-PK4.zip, In extracted folders you will find file "MT6752_Android_scatter.txt".
4.RUN flash_tool.exe, select scatter file "MT6752_Android_scatter.txt"., click download, and connect your SWITCHED OFF phone. Progress bar (yellow color) will appear, wait until message dialog "Download OK". Disconect phone and that's all. Power on the phone, wait 5-10 min and here is your new firmware.

NEW: Automatic updates: OTA UPDATE TO GET LATEST STABLE VERSION,
ALSO SUCCESSFUL FIX FOR INVALID IMEI AND "NVRAM WARNING ERR: = 0×10" ! ! (IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH IMEI AND WIFI)
INVALID IMEI: Download file IMEI restore.zip. You can find pictures inside zip – to help you. Do That.
For me – it doesnt work 
. But DO THAT!. After 4 days trying to solve INVALID IMEI, and WIFI error "nvram warning err: = 0×10", finaly I have success! Just download LenovoOTA_v3.5.zip. UnRoute your phone. Install LENOVOOTA FOR OTA UPDATES. Run . Now your phone will use OTA and you will have latest STABLE version of vibeui (Stable – ST, not developer DEV)! Download updates and install them. Finnaly, SOLVED INVALID IMEI – IMEI IS OK, and WIFI ERROR message "nvram warning err: = 0×10" has gone too.. Everything is great ! Now I have STABLE VERSION VIBEUI_V2.8._1535_5.128.1_ST_K50-T5. After update, route phone again and install google play services (becouse they will lost while Automatic update (OTA update)). This gaps works: gapps-5.1-arm64-2015-07-17-15-08_OK.zip. (I tried many gaps, but with no success. This one is OK. Gaps install throught twrp.
PS. After AUTOMATIC OTA UPDATES YOU WILL ONLY HAVE ENGLISH AND CHINESE LANGUAGE, NOT MULTILANGUAGE!

Once you have installed spflashtools and drivers, just run steps 1 , 4, 5..(skip step 2 and 3). But sometimes, your PC does not recognize your phone when you connect to pc. Then, run all steps 1,2,3…..IT ALWAYS WORKS!
Before OTA Updates, remove ROOT, download updates, install them, and, again :run FlashTool and "Lenovo K3 NOTE CWM Recovery.zip"…To root again.

It does not work. When I connect my phone it gives this BROM ERROR 5007
You have unziped file:K3 NOTE CWM Recovery.zip ?
Click on Scatter-loading and select the right file. The file is "MT6752_Android_scatter.txt" On your picture I can see something like lemon.!
It's worked now after I downloaded again Lenovo K3 NOTE CWM Recovery.zip – it was wrong the first time. My gapps is back! Thank you.
I'm now with VIBEUI 2.8_1535 with OTA system updates and gapps
Please tell them to fix the proximity sensor and double-tap to wake. With those it will be perfect.
Great!.
Do you install Dolby
If you install Dolby, turn off " Use NuPlayer (experimental)" , in your Developer options.
Now my friend, you can remove unwanted apps (chinese) from your phone. But be careful
One strange thing. When I shutdown and then restart in recovery mode it does not boot into CWM but again into Lenovo recovery. Why does not remain? I chose something wrong when I flashed it?
Sometimes, Power off and remove battery for 3-4 sec helps!!!
press power, vol+ and vol-.
If not works, repeat procedure (flashtools and "Lenovo K3 NOTE CWM Recovery.zip")
Yes, I know how to activate it (power, vol+ and vol-) but it does not work. I will have to try to repeat the procedure. I want to make a backup with CWM of what I have now. Or do you recommend some other method to make a backup? thanks for all you help!
Do you recommend installing CWM using ADB Fastbooth method? It's OK?…
http://www.techolaty.com/how-t.....astboot-method/
Or, you only recommend the SP Flash Tool method?
With FlashTools have explained "what if pc not recognize your phone". I think its easy. ADB make me some problems, so i don't use them. (First time of use it was ok, but after that…no…). FlashTools always works.
OOOOOOOOO No, Don't make "Factory data restore" !!! After reboot you will get some error message (i don't remember..some wifi error…), so I reinstall firmware
Btw, on my phone double tap screen on and proximity sensor work with every version. To turn Double tap screen on is under ""character settings" menu.
What is the best way to for restore imei ? Permanent restore ?
1.IMEI restore.zip
2.mdk droid tool
3.sn writh tool
II lost 4 days (all 4 days trying to solve this problem.
I solved on this way:
1.Install version vibeui_2.5_2511_5.444.1_st_k50 (see above links).
2. unzip Imei_restore and run them. generate file and replace in folder as described. It dos not solve my imei.
3 finaly, I installed Lenovo_Ota, phone hes downloaded new system updates and after restart everything was OK! Read written above. Also this fix error "NVRAM WARNING ERR: = 0×10" too.
I try all tools MEI restore.zip, mdk droid tool, sn writh tool. Always nothing. I think it's not matter (finnaly i used IMEI restore.zip). OTA Update will solve the problem!
Thank you for your answer, I found imei and nvram problem and solve by mobileuncle tool but need to restore after flash new rom.
I would like to know your method more result .If you flash new rom ,is imei still remain or not ?
Yes, it remains. Flash don't change IMEI (sometimes goes wrong and your IMEI became INVALID.). So, Use tools to generate IMEI and, if still it's invalid, run OTA update.
