Lenovo introduced A6000 in Jan 2015 & A6000 Plus in April 2015. Lenovo A6000 received great response from all the users. It was also termed as one of the best low budget Android Smartphone. However, things have changed now, many new devices have arrived with much better specs & less cost. Lenovo slowly started losing hold from A6000 updates.
Things got worse after Lenovo A6000 Lollipop 5.0.2 update. Some of the common issues after update were battery drain, less free RAM, lag while multi tasking & the ugly VibeUI update. But thanks to all the hardwork of developers, we are getting the chance of using Android Nougat 7.1.2 in Lenovo A6000/Plus through Resurrection Remix ROM based on Cyanogenmod 14.

That Rom Showing error while flashing pls give me a suggestion
The problem is even after patching.. The mic is highly sensitive and it captures minute sounds like instances when you move your fingers on the phone during calls. I guess decreasing the mic sensitivity a bit will help.
Will try to find a fix.

The ROM already has root enabled. Why would you install SuperSU?
hi,
i have installed this rom and i have flashed gapps.zip as you have instructed. but i cant find google play services or any other google apps like play store in my device. i had backed up modt of my gapps that i had been using on android 5.0.1 using ESfileexplorer and tried installing them too.. but then im getting the error message ‘unfortunately google play services has stopped’ .pl help
Use ARM32 Gapps for new version.
While flashing the ARM64 gapps recovery says its not compatible and after installing ARM it says success full but its not available while I turn on my device its all blank plz provide a solution to this
Please do a system format before installing. Then install ROM, then Gapps.
