Ohhhhhhhhh yeah CyanogenMod 12.1 for Lenovo P70 that's amazing.Fastest and smoothest custom ROM ever developed is CyanogenMod and available for Mediatek based Android device Lenovo P70 with MTK6752.
Almost any user want to have and use CyanogenMod ROM on their Android device but CyanogenMod firmware is specific for some chipset, cpu, so, so... as well as needed to be build for each one individually and that's not easy effort and for thus it not available for every every Android device.
Well, in this post I'll show you How to install CyanogenMod 12.1 on Lenovo P70-A.
It's 64bit for Lenovo's P70 CPU MTK6752 and working amazing, very smooth with great features developed from CyanogenMod.
As I said it's 64bit based ROM and you need first to install Andoid Lollipop 5.1 64bit then CyanogenMod otherwise it will not work.
Warning: Before anything to do make sure you've backed up your files from internal memory like pictures,documents,apps etc. all information will be erased as well as current firmware on your Lenovo P70 when you flash firmware via Sp flash tool.DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
So, let's begin :

- Gapps CyanogenMod 12.1 64bit for Lenovo P70 - link (put into SDcard or internal memory)
