[Unbrick][Stock] Yoga Tab 3 - How to unbrick, and restore to stock.

I work at a shop and someone brought me a Yoga Tab 3 8" tablet that was on a screen that asked for an original google account.

It was purchased without much thought because i figured it was just part of the setup.

No this is actually a Device Protection feature google has had since Lollipop apparently.

There is a way around it if anyone is interested or is in a soft brick that they can access the recovery from.



NOTE :
THIS IS FOR THE YOGA TAB 3 8" YT3-850F ONLY!!!!! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DESTROY YOUR TABLET! PLEASE BE CAREFUL. DO NOT FLASH ANYTHING FOR WRONG MODEL. CONFIRM YOUR MODEL NUMBER BY LOOKING ON THE BACK STICKER BEFORE PROCEEDING.


You will need :

A Computer

A Micro SD Card and Adapter

A couple of hours time

Patience...

Patience........


Firstly, as always, make sure the device is charged before attempting any of this please.

Download the stock firmware from This Link.

Do not extract the firmware at all or rename it, just leave it as it is, it will take about an hour to download.

After you have the firmware downloaded move the zip file to the root of the MicroSD Card on the computer.

Eject the SDCard from the computer and put it into the Yoga Tab.

Reboot into recovery by pressing Power and Vol+ let go of Power when you see the Lenovo logo.

Once in recovery go ahead and do a factory reset/data wipe.

The next step is to actually flash the zip you put on the MicroSD earlier. You go down to apply update from SD using the Volume + and -
buttons. Power to select an option. Select the Zip you downloaded from this guide.

it will take approximately 20-30 minutes to fully install the update. after it installs it will boot up like new again, with no Google Device Protection, and it is a possible way to unbrick!
