Thanks

Thanks, I have started downloading the ~700 MB file, Mega game me option to click download, it seems to be downloading, not sure how its going to save it on my desktop.

I am going to give it a shot and will let you know.

BTW Have you tested Real racing 3 on your phone? It keeps crashing on mine.

**Update :- I am done and my phone is rooted now. Many thanks :)

BTW, I did notice the some of the .bin files where missing during the update. Is that reason for any concern ??

thanks again.
[Lenovo K900] rajivmishra13:
Its time...

I think its time that you edit your post and update most of its content so that new users can come and find the things directly from the first post. like you can delete the line where it says that device doesnt support Google Play Store!!:confused:

[Lenovo K900] INeedYourHelp:
I saw a few places that list 1700mhz/2100mhz as being supported for 3g. Has anyone used a k900 on t-mobile to confirm?
[Lenovo K900] rajivmishra13:
Lenovo Secure a.k.a LeSec

I hope you guys noticed.

If you long press any SMS, you get a pop up with different choices including delete thread. One of the last choice is to "Add to blacklist". Once selected, you get sort of a window popup from "Lenovo Secure" asking to confirm the consequences, but when pressed OK, next thing i get is "Failed" message.

So question is , is LeSecure fully implemented in this phone i.e K900, if answer is yes, then why i get "Failed" message and how to fix it.

I hope who have experience with old lenovo phones may know it better. Would be great to have LeSec work on this phone for the features i have read about it.

thanks:cool:
[Lenovo K900] jodtalingchan:
It would be nice if this feature is fully functional.
[Lenovo K900] Trancexplant:
Any progress on this issue? Mine's stuck in USB mode too. The flash attempts all end at 70% with the following message:

WARNING: Port 0/0/2 #0: Failed to execute "fastboot -s Medfield19FA0023 oem nvm apply /tmp/NV_130119.tlv"

I'm going to try downloading the package again in case that file was corrupted. If that doesn't work, does anyone here have a copy of that file that worked? Thanks in advance.
[Lenovo K900] IceGoal:
Do you like Xperia Z Ultra better than K900? Thanks for sharing your opinion.
[Lenovo K900] amoyan:
Same here. I am wondering if its a smsc feature.
[Lenovo K900] RoundOff:
Mine K900 is easy to become overheat...
[Lenovo K900] gooberq:
Mine is a different issue, its a hardware issue , i got the error when updating the modem, i ran the harware test and it reported SIM fail and SD fail, i sent the phone back for replacement.
[Lenovo K900] Trancexplant:
Oh okay. Who did you send it back to, the vendor or Lenovo? I'm hitting the same wall no matter what combination of PCs, packages and settings I try, so it's looking more and more like I'm going to need Lenovo's assistance. The tricky part, of course, is figuring out who to contact and how to go about it.
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
I applied two tricks to extend the battery life, I don't know but after that the phone became a little cooler. I also noticed phone heats more whenever there is extensive use of the screen; i.e. a long cal via speaker, using skype, the camera, etc. Right now, the heat is bearable except when using Skype (but it is also lower than before). The two tricks are:

1. Charge the phone until it reached 98%, turn it off but keep it in the charger until it fully chargers (around 10 minutes or so). Then take it off the charger and let it off for few minutes, then switch it on.

2. Before you go to sleep, use your phone and drain the battery until it reached 3%, at this point Lenovo UI will automatically shut down the phone (if it doesn't shut it manually) then charge it overnight. When you wake up, take it off the charger and start it.

Again, I don't know if it will work or not, but I have noticed that the heat was lower, only slightly when using Skype, though. Sadly, both tricks didn't have any effect of battery life. I still use 1% for each minute I keep it on (just scrolling the screen) and I can get 18 hour at most when leaving idle!!!!
[Lenovo K900] bobr76:
Huh. What are you running in background? 1% battery per minute for scrolling screen is unreasonable. There must be something eating cpu resources. Check usage information with Lenovo Power app.

For me when I wake up in morning fully charged it says 32 hours endurance. It easily lasts more than a day with lots of internet browsing, sms-ing, emailing, occasional gaming...
[Lenovo K900] ransagy:
Yeah, I get more or less the same. At least 30 hours.
[Lenovo K900] gooberq:
i got the phone from ebay , i had to send the videos of the issue to the seller and proove the issue, he accepted it and i have mailed the phone to him for replacement.
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
I have location services turned down, screen brightness to 30%, etc, etc. I also installed CPUSpy app and it confirmed there were no apps running in the background and waking up the phone. I have some screen shots from the usage information, I will post them later tonight.

The problem is when I use the phone, for example I take a photo or browse the Internet, or use Skype. This is when I start losing power like no tomorrow!!

I just checked usage information on the Lenovo power app, and it reports 52.9% of consumption by Skype followed by 13% phone/messages, 11.2% AccuWeather, 8.8% Play Store (software) and 57.3% for Radio, 20.1% voice calls, 13.8% CPU, 7.8% screen, and 0.8% WLAN.

Does this seem normal?
[Lenovo K900] bobr76:
There you go, Skype is killing it. And skype is anyway known for eating up lots of resources.

Are you using Video chat with skype, voice calling with it or just texting?
[Lenovo K900] ransagy:
Skype is rather pervasive, yeah. If you don't have to leave it on, try signing out and see if it makes a difference. Make sure you sign out tho - and that Skype isn't in your notification list.
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
It is not in my notification, but I usually just swipe it from the task bar without signing in. Few minutes ago, I downloaded Zapper task killer and it showed that s is running for the last 54 hours! I killed it. I use skype mainly to video chat with my mother. I am abroad right now. Not only it eats up battery, it makes the phone hot as hell (46 degrees!!).

However, the battery drain happens also with the super camera app. I also killed it. Right now, after killing the apps and using the phone for 6 minutes, GSAM gives me 46 hours based on average use (That include no wifi during the night 1:30 - 7:30 and at work) but just under 6 hours based on 8 minutes of use, where I turned the wifi on, downloaded the zapper task killer, and killed some tasks!!

Any way, When I go back home, I will upload some screen shots.
[Lenovo K900] bobr76:
Skype is know for these issues. Try some alternative like Viber, Gtalk or switch to PC video chat.
[Lenovo K900] Sw33t_Lov3r:
How many issues has the K900? Over-heating? Quality of Lenovo support? Battery life?

Hey! You are welcome!

How is your K900 doing now with the last update you mentioned?

Do you mean you did an hard-reset?

How about RAM usage now? 23% of 2GB RAM is... only +-400MB of RAM used?

So it reports +-400MB used and +-1500MB free? O,o Pretty weird. Aren't you confused? Ha

After I managed my Razr i system and user apps now it's getting better multitasking,

gaming and battery life. Also, RAM usage stays between 420 - 490MB free. Before it was between 320 - 380.

So, I has improved n.n

What's up with the call-drop issue? Did they (Lenovo) served you well?

I'm affraid I doubt of their customer care/support service quality. Will it be replaced?

What did they mean with "and they said they will reload the firmware"?

Didn't they mean they will update the firmware?

Is it rooted already? If not, have you tried the no-root apps I recommended to you? :D

Well, how is your K900 doing now?

You know, I really wanted this device, but now I doubt between this and the Xperia Z Ultra.

My main concerns about it are:

- Over-heating (46° C easily?!!!!!!! My Razr i -rarely- when gaming gets up to 44° C).

- Quality of after sales support (I've read too many complaints).

- Battery life (any statement?)

- And lack of commitment to Android updates from Lenovo. Will they update it to Android 4.3?

and what about 5.0? They should! But no word from Lenovo about it. Bad. I've read from other

Lenovo smartphones users that Lenovo hasn't updated their devices at all.

In the other hand, Xperia Z Ultra... it has almost all. But there are some months untill I can

buy the Xperia Z Ultra in my country (Peru) so, maybe the K900 arrives for that time and/or most

of these issues have been already fixed through updates to the firmware. Who knows.

Actually, do you lose your warranty once you root your K900? If so, after sales services or warranty

for the unit would be void. I shouln't worry about warranty then, cause I'd root it anyway! O.o

Lenovo the turtle is so slow, but even so it's working on a K910. Less hope for us to have the K900

in other markets, or more and more waiting. Maybe (I really hope) the K910 looks the same as the K900,

cause I only want the K900 for its design, and the Intel CPU. If not, then another Snapdragon 800 powered

device won't get my attention at all. What do you think? n.n

Oh, I almost forget it. Do you have this wallpaper? The one that appears in this video from Lenovo:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtx7HJyP_y8. I asked some days ago and a user said it's

not in his device O.o I'd like it for my Razr i n.n Share it if you have it. Please.

Lenovo K900 [Tweaks +UI Lag Reduction][Root]

[Lenovo K900] trungduc5151:
Can you explain step 1. the function of those line, what they will do? I see some of them is force render and save power?
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
Thank you, I have uninstalled Skype since I can use it on my iPod, which never did any problem there, nor on my wife's SG3. Any way, battery looks like it is improved but a bit, as it rops by 1% every other minute now :)

Still, endurance time is suggested to be 15:49 by Lenovo Power management, and 100:26 (average), 49:08 (last 14 minutes), but when I open the app, it actually shows a 19h endurance time estimate on average.

I still doubt it is Skype aone as super camera also consumed about 50% of power on first day, where I used it now and then for about 6 hours.

Another issue: For the Lenovo Power app, if you change the mode (Alarm mode, call mode, online mode, custom mode) does it change endurance estimate? For me, whatever mode I choose it gives me the same estimates!

Here are some shots, from first day (When I used the camera), the CPUSpy, yesterday's results, and running apps.

Should I do a reset and see if this affect anything? Also, is there a chance that the seller has messed up while installing the international ROM?

Thanks,
[Lenovo K900] bobr76:
Very strange. You should get different endurance estimation when switching modes.

I suggest you do a backup and a full factory reset in settings. This way you will be sure how it's working as stock (should be 30+hrs endurance) and then go from there app by app.
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
Luckily, I have backed my photos and videos last night, so I went ahead and did a full restore, and I slicked no to restoring apps. The phone is fully restored and "empty" now. Custom endurance gave me 30 hours for 81% of the battery.

I will go app by app from now and see what causes the battery drain. Any idea if the themes posted here affect battery consumption?

Thanks a lot.
[Lenovo K900] bobr76:
Themes are not causing battery drain. I am using several themes and no issues so far.

I bet it's some of "your" apps causing this :). Try to keep it as clean as possible.

ROW 0727 Battery Drain

Is anyone noticing unusual battery drain when plugged in since updating to ROW 0727?

I've noticed the phone has completely discharged a few times, while plugged in. Strange, since it happens with the same cable and charger, and at different locations (both my home and my office).

It has happened maybe three or four times since I updated. It's really annoying to wake up and find your phone dead, after being plugged in all night :(
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
That's strange!! I have different issues with battery drain but not this one, you can check the previous 2 pages. I did a factory reset and now I get around 32 hours per charge. Maybe this will work with you too.

Might I be so bold as to suggest .... operator error as the cause of this 'strange issue'.

[Lenovo K900] MacGuy2006:
Thanks. Unfortunately, I've plugged, unplugged and plugged again. Several times. It has happened with 3 different cables and two different chargers. The phone shows that it's charging, yet the battery charge keeps going down.

I was inclined to blame the chargers, as one is from an old Galaxy I had, the other is built into a power strip. But I've been using the same set up before without any issues.

Yesterday the only way it started charging again was when I plugged it into the USB port of my Mac Book Air.
[Lenovo K900] ransagy:
Well, If it does charge from the USB, then at least you know the battery itself isn't at fault, i guess.
