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.

This is the best ROM ive installed so far works great thanks to the devs. It was a pain finding the Gapps for this,, finally found one… now everything runs like clockwork.. this gapps link worked for me https://userscloud.com/as1vnpvs2weq
My WiFi is working fine in this new ROM so what difference will happen if I flash that WiFi fix ? Will it improve my device performance, battery, etc?
I installed this rom one month back now i am using this os from last one month,
Everything is ok. Performance, sound, apps installation, connectivity, internet speed , downloads.
But the only problem is battery. if you charged 100% battery if you used continuously it will come only 4-5 hrs. But if you keep the phone without any work battery is good.
I just installed Resurrection Remix 5.7.1 in my lenovo A6000. Everything is working well apart from Gapps which I’m unable to install. I have tried flashing nano and micro version of ARM Gapps but they don’t show up in the phone after reboot. I think I will have to flash the Gapps along with the ROM again. To do so is it mandatory for me to install the lollipop ROM again or can I just follow the same steps in this article with the custom ROM and also do I have to paste the zip file(of Gapps) in the internal storage or the SD card.
Please reply ASAP as I liked this ROM a lot and have no intentions of reverting back to the laggy VIBE UI.
Cheers 🙂
check wether ur phone is arm or arm64.try flashing arm64 version of gapps.
