The contacts is buggy.

It reads all contacts from fb and Google just to dial but the names don't show up in the last dialled. Moreover, phone needs all the contacts in the phone storage for it to work properly. Even the transfer of contacts is not smooth as it chooses 1000 only.

Buggy software needs a go. Stock android contact manager was better with good large display pics of the called nos. This one isn't good.

PS: became fine after OTA update

Fwiw. the wifi 5GHz performance .. isnt up to snuff compare some like the Z ... only managed a 15M compared to Z's almost 100M. perhaps thats why its disabled in the row build .

When I was looking for a solution for the battery heating problem, I found the above video for Lenovo laptop battery heating problem. One user commented the following:

"The reason for such high temperature lies in Intel Turbo Boost. In order to turn it off just go to﻿ your Power plan settings --> Change plan settings --> Change advanced power settings --> Processor power management --> Maximum processor state --> Change from 100% to 99%. This should do it. Hope this helps ( :"

Do you guys think this might be the same for the K900? And if it might be, is there a way to access power options?

Also, the smart power options has an option for CPU power reduction. If you click on CPU information, it shows 4 cores of 800 MHz, each. I think this is a mistake, right? On time, the 2nd core was up to 1300 MHz for like a second and went back to 800 MHz.
[Lenovo K900] rajivmishra13:
Its not a mistake, the phone might be a duo core on papers but actually consists of 4 cores, you can even checkout the device details in AnTuTu Benchmark. Its listed as "Quad core x86 Processor ( SSSE3 ). BTW my Antutu score was 21838...how is everyone else doing in the benchmark ? I bet the SD ( 150 SD-write and 207 SD-read respectively made it look that bad.
[Lenovo K900] vanhoe:
Nope. It's just Hyper-Threading making everyone confused with their physical cores and logical cores, again. (Just like there are people that still believe their Core i7 processor really have 8 cores :rolleyes:)

http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/hyperthreading-technology-explained/
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
Ok, so this confirms that multi-threading is on. Now, How is the 2GHz calculated? Is it with multi-threading on or off?
[Lenovo K900] sachithyoda:
Looks good going to try to root it now will report back on how it went
[Lenovo K900] garryweil:
Is there a way to enable 5GHz in the ROW build?
[Lenovo K900] vanhoe:
Each two cores that you see in the OS is actually from one physical core, so the frequency of the two logical cores should be the same IIRC. As for the 2GHz (I assume you mean the CPU clock/frequency), read this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6894103/clock-speed-what-does-it-mean

And multi-threading doesn't have to do anything with the clock/frequency, it is just how the processor is designed to work. I hope this can help you understand.:)

Hi

Hello;

I am looking to buy this phone for use in Canada on the Telus network. Since Telus uses the HSPA frequencies of 850/1900, I should have no problem using this. Also, the chinese store I am buying it from, will put on the internation firmware. This will give me google play access and the device will not be rooted correct? I am not looking for a rooted device at this time.

I am very new to android, as I have been a blackberry user for years, but, their lack of app support, and dismal performance lately, has me switching.
[Lenovo K900] mac231us:
does not show up in updates...for 7/31 non-rooted Chinese ROM (says latest version is 7/31; maybe they did not publish it in the end)

---------- Post added at 10:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 PM ----------

Anyone understand what is going on here...?

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-x86/KGUFn70cqmc
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
Yes, that's correct. you well get access to Google Play but the phone will not be rooted. I bought my phone from China as well and it was Google certified, but not rooted.
[Lenovo K900] viper359:
Perfect. I found the phone much cheaper at aliexpress, so I will just do the ROW install myself once it arrives. Now I have to figure out if I need to contact my provider and let them know I am using a different phone, I don't want all my traffic going through blackberry servers anymore. I don't think it will, but, not sure.

**Edit** Aliexpress decided to cancel my order because of a secuirty verification. they want me to send a copy of my ID and credit card. I don't think so! I have worked fraud cases where employees stole copies of this information from reputable companies. Not only is my credit card verified by my info supplied, but I even had to use the securecode to authorize the purhcase, like a pin code on debit cards. So the seller lost a sale thanks to this middleman. I went with Liaow online.
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
Hmmmmmm, that's strange. I have bought my phone from AliExpress as well and they have not requested for such thing!!

P.S. If the seller says that the phone is Google certified (i.e.: Google Play: Built in) then the ROW would be installed. If you want to do it yourself, you have to contact the sller and let him know. That's of course, if you want to still by fro AliExpress.

liaow.com is another option, although a bit more expensive and they let you pay the PayPal transaction fee that they should pay. I was initially going to buy it from them, but I changed my mind because of that.
[Lenovo K900] juanfervs:
Pandawill is another option, you pay the PayPal transaction

Thanks guys. I don't mind paying what I did through liaow. It still comes out over $150.00 cheaper than the top two smart phones right now.I can live with that. It should be here in about 7 days.
[Lenovo K900] hypnz:
From where did you buy it?
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
Well, I was lucky enough to find it for Euro 360 ($480) including shipping by DHL and receiving it in 5 days, but I was unlucky with customs as I paid Euro 40 ($55) even though it was marked as gift and valued for 40 Euros!! But then this is the risk you take when you deal with DHL!

Still it is Euro 150 ($200) cheaper than its competitors.

Is there anyone here use this phone in Canada and able to use with Telus?

Hi all,

I was wondering what scores you are getting. I bought a k900 16 GB and I don't get higher than 21-22k while YouTube and some sites run and achieve 27-28k. Is my phone fake? I'm on 722 non rooted
[Lenovo K900] aRYip:
Does that mean K900 can use the Telus Data in Canada?
[Lenovo K900] ArchenzeEL:

Hey aRYip, Im using my phone on Bell networks, which uses the same UMTS bands as Telus. (I was with Telus before)

So im pretty sure it will works flawlessly on Telus.

I got my black edition for a week now, everyone keep asking wthat phone is it, the phone is amazing so far.
[Lenovo K900] druweed:

[Lenovo K900] aRYip:
Thanks! I am in China right now, and is debating to get black or orange edition. (Also debating to get K900 or Vivo Xplay as well, lol)

Anywayz, thanks for your help!
[Lenovo K900] prateekagl:
In the upgraded firmware (570mb) this got corrected!!

Thanks
[Lenovo K900] druweed:
Careful if you are on Telus and plan to get the Xplay, I was also looking at it (its an attractive phone, even tho its much bigger than the k900), but the main issue for us is the compatible umts bands, the Vivo is only compatible with WCDMA 2100, which will suck once you are outside city.

Basically you wont get any signal.
[Lenovo K900] hypnz:
Hello!! I want to buy it to and I have to ask, it will works with Vodafone gr? Thanks!
[Lenovo K900] viper359:
Yes, technically speaking, Telus and Bell actually share the UMTS network. They built it together, rather than each spending billion plus dollars to building their own, which makes sense. So, if a phone works on Bell, it will work on Telus. UMTS and LTE. This phone, doesn't have LTE. Which is a good thing. LTE sucks right now.

LTE draws more power, for questionable speed increases. LTE reception is modest at best in many area's of Canada, Toronto included. My wife looses reception in buildings I for example, get full strength, as I am on the HSPA+ network of Telus. I almost never not have reception. In fact, I cannot think of a time I didn't have it.
[Lenovo K900] dabdob:
Ok, the Lenovo battery management app is acting funny again! Although I get close-to-right estimate, it now gives me the same estimate for every mode (alarm, calls, online, custom), so no matter what I turn on or off, the four modes has the same estimate of time remaining until the battery reaches 0%. I disabled the app then enabled it again, but it didn't solve anything.

Anyone experienced the same thing? Any fix?

solution to apn list

lenovo apn list is not complete therfore for some carriers 3G will not work unless they modify the list.

below is the solution tested it my self and it worked for me.

1. download from google play store APNs BU xsylus.

2. Run it. Do a backup of your apn list from the backup options

3. Now plug the phone to your computer as a media device and from the portable devices lenovo k900 find the file APNsBU and copy your backup apn list to your desktop

4, Download from the web SQLiteSpy. With this program you can edit the apn list.

5, Run SQLiteSpy/File/Open Database /apn list /carriers/choose one existing carrier and edit every cell according to your provider settings. Don't forget the name of your carier.

6. Now replace the modified apn file into the same folder and delete the existing.

7. Now from the mobile run APNs Backup and restore your modified apn from the restore options. After reboot your 3G data will work.

cheers
