I rooted my lenovo s8 4.4.2 with kingo root. However in the process of uninstalling a lot of bloatware i did uninstall an important app, i guess because now i have this message security problem all the time in home e screen.. I am trying to do a hard reset with recovery but the menu is in Chinese. Please somebody could tell me stepbystep how to do the hard reset.

If you're entering the recovery mode using "Vol Down" use "Vol Up" instead, and vice versa. The Chinese menu is not your recovery menu.

I suggest you a factory reset. The next time be careful what you uninstall.

You can do a factory reset from within android as well.
See this tutorial
If you are getting into factory mode (Chinese menu) with power and vol up button, then try going the other way. Power and vol down should take you to recovery.
But if factory mode is power and vol down, try power and vol up for recovery.

I got the same result (chinese menu) with power button down or up. Also the same with the factory reset option in android itself. Do i have to flash a rom, and how? ..

At first, I suggest you to do a Factory Reset. And then, I'll look for a stock rom for your device ... and when I'll find it ... I'll give it to you.
