New Firmware for Lenovo A369i ROW_S111_140522

After installing this update you can´t install many custom roms (Boot loop) but you have to downgrade first to s110


This is the latest Original Firmware from Lenovo with some performance enhancement and new boot logo with Powered by Android but still Android 4.2.2


Or just watch this video


Note: This zip file is not to install using Recovery/TWRP but only using PC and SP Flash Tool (make Backup before install, because updating will Factory Reset your Phone)

  8. I got my lenovo a369i from a network supplier here in the Philippines,when I tried to do this update it seems to erase my imei ,I never made a back up,I searched in so many forums like xda to recover my imei, but failed, is it possible that my provider blocked my phone from network access because I upgraded my ROM or is it just me that made a mistake for my phone to be bricked ?please responed.thanks

    1. Downgrade you device to s110 firmware update just like normal then use MTK droid tools to root your device first and then reenter your imei manually, you can find your imei under the battery
