Anyone use the sky go app yet? There's a nice little stutter for me on the live streams!

Haven't experienced any stutter with SkyGo... it could be the app or your internet, skygo can act up fom time to time. Only minor problems I've had is how long it takes to fully charge and changing the lockscreen background , no options in settings but think its something to do with the lenovo launcher.

Anyways looking for a decent case for it if anyone has a good suggestion

BA of the year so far for me.
It's at €289 now and I got an email with code TABLETDISCOUNT for €50 off, so 239 is the best you can get it now.

Thanks for the code. It actually gave me €70 off the 16GB WiFi model - i.e. a total to pay of €219. Not as good as the expired OP offer but I'm delighted with the €70 off - cheers.

TABLETDISCOUNT doesnt work with the Windows 8 Version of the tablet

uck51js9zml2yt · 06-07-2015 10:38am

I got the case I referred to a few pages back.
Really good quality, made from leather.

It used to work fine for me but when I last tried it a couple of weeks ago there was a horrible stutter on it - no problems using Netflix or Youtube - only Skygo

Anybody still waiting on delivery? It's 2 weeks since I've ordered and it still says Order in Process.

I received the confirmation number/email. My credit card has not been debited. I have emailed and telephoned Lenovo to check on the progress but I have heard nothing back from them. The caller in customer service, while very friendly, did not have an idea as to why I hadn't received it but said that it was a shipping issue. She said she would check it out and get back to me. I've heard nothing. That was last Thursday.

Pretty desperate at this stage. I'm out of the country for 3 weeks from Saturday so chances are if they dont deliver it this week I'll never get it. Shame as it's a great bargain for very good tablet.

RossieMan · 06-07-2015 5:56pm

Rqng today and got a shipping number, says it'll be delivered tomorrow. But its still in Tamworth so not too confident

Just off the phone with u lenovo and ups. Ordered 24th and says shipped the 29th but ups says staff strikes in ports are causing huge delays and don't know when it will arrive. He said I could change the address it's delivered to if I'm not there when it arrives.

As you can see above, strikes in the port is delaying shipment according to ups after I contacted them

Mine says the same thing now.

MOH · 06-07-2015 9:12pm

Mines just died completely. Battery was at about 70%, was browsing, left it on standby and went out for a couple of hours, now it's completely unresponsive. Tried plugging it in though shouldn't be dead, nada. Any suggestions?

[edit]
Boards magic strikes again. Had tried long and short pressing the power button, nothing happening.
Tried it again a minute after posting this and it came on straight away at 65% battery. Weird

RossieMan · 06-07-2015 9:18pm

Is it being picked up by your PC?

RossieMan · 07-07-2015 12:31pm

Delivered today, its waiting patiently at home for me to root it.

Took a while but happy days. Just remember, no skygo access if you root it.

RossieMan · 07-07-2015 9:57pm

I'm a kodi man anyway.

garv123 · 08-07-2015 1:52pm

Came yesterday didn't get to do much with it but it looks good so far to do what I want it for.

turniphead · 08-07-2015 2:35pm

I still haven't gotten mine but I've been told it'll ship tomorrow and that I'll receive a 5% partial refund. Expecting to have it by next Tuesday (3 weeks after ordering) Hopefully!

Glad to hear those who have received theirs are happy with the tablet.

If you put Yatse remote and unlocker (paid for) on this it streams perfectly from Kodi.

corks finest · 09-07-2015 4:21am

Reference kodi,any idea how to add genesis,popcorn time to it,can't find the genesis app I have on my Xbmc box,,,I'm a Luddite

Trying to root this lads and having a few issues.

I'm using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096
But am getting stuck when it goes into recovery, it just sits there.
Probably something simple im missing out on.

Does it give you the options, that you can use the volume rocker and power button to select the supersu zip?

RossieMan · 09-07-2015 9:06pm

Don't even get that far. Getting stuck on the main fastboot screen. Have a feeling it's something to do with my drivers.

The lenovo driver in the tablet storage worked fine for me. If that doesnt work, try the pdanet drivers.

blockman · 10-07-2015 12:15pm

Happy days, finally arrived. Shipment delay on UPS side. Playtime!!!!!!!!

AstraMonti · 10-07-2015 12:22pm

I am not too impressed with it for general use. The video review that was posted on the first page is spot on. There is a significant delay inside the os, swapping apps and browsing the internet. It's brilliant for movies and games though. I hope the lag issues will be fixed when the lollipop update arrives.

RossieMan · 10-07-2015 8:16pm

Got it rooted in the end, it was a driver issue. Just found some on XDA and it worked a treat.
Its a little awkward not having a recovery on the device, but im sure i'll get around that.

have had a little bit of the lag, but i think the overall performance out weights the the little negatives. I don't think there is a better 10 inch tablet for that price.

ynwa_17 · 11-07-2015 6:28pm

Has anyone managed to get flash working on it? I used the below link

https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html

and downloaded the flash fr Android about half way down the page, but didn't seem to work as its still saying I need a plug in to watch, on Firefox.

Thanks!

Tinie · 15-07-2015 6:17pm

Anyone else have this weird black line often right through the centre of the screen? Seems to be just on chrome however!

corks finest · 15-07-2015 6:43pm

no,tnk God,id reinstall chrome,or if that doesent work,send it back,had the same prob on a lumia

RossieMan · 21-07-2015 6:57am

Update to lollipop back online. If you've rooted youve got to unroot first. Have been hearing of people struggling to do it with root.

AstraMonti · 21-07-2015 8:42am

Did you do it? Has it got any snappier?

Im getting install failure. Rooted device but have unrooted it and root check says "no root" on device. Not sure what to do. Any one else figure it out?

RossieMan · 21-07-2015 1:32pm

I had the same issues and had to go to work. If you go into recovery via the T3 method you used to root and try to install the update.zip there, it should work. Or so I think in my head, will be giving it a go when I get home.

Any idea where to get the update.zip? I assume you mean a zipped file of the lollipop OTA?

RossieMan · 21-07-2015 4:54pm

yea thats what i mean. Just home now so having a look on my tablet to figure out where its downloaded.

Mantis Toboggan · 21-07-2015 5:27pm

Just updated to 5.0.1 everything running smooth. Fair play to lenovo.

Yours installed via OTA?

have to flash mine back to stock kitkat to see will that sort it out, seems to be a common issue.

Yeah update was in the notification bar. Everything running much smoother now thankfully.

RossieMan · 21-07-2015 5:52pm

To say I'm jealous is an understatement.

AstraMonti · 21-07-2015 7:08pm

Just updated as well, all running much better now!

Tinie · 21-07-2015 7:27pm

Just reflashed a stock image of kit kat and updated. Took about 20 mins. Lollipop is much better, has a much more stock skin than kit kat.

RossieMan · 21-07-2015 7:50pm

Did the same myself. Took me a bit longer on slower internet, the process itself is very easy once you get flashtool working.

Tinie · 21-07-2015 8:23pm

^ Yeah thats true.

Anyone been able to figure out how to root this lollipop? Cant seem to get it working with the old intel way here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096

Yea done it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60770086&postcount=352

use this and pick T4. have the superuser.zip on your tablet before hand.

sue97 · 21-07-2015 8:32pm

Anyone bought one and not using it in Dublin, sorry I missed this offer

hmmm I keep getting this when I do that. Did you get this?

I cant see where to use the SuperSU zip.

RossieMan · 21-07-2015 10:08pm

I was on that screen but didn't get that message. You used the T4 option? The T3 didn't work for me. Perhaps you could try that.

Yeah used the T4 option. Not sure what the issue is.

No its saying "no valid medium" in blue.

Very annoying

RossieMan · 21-07-2015 10:27pm

Maybe try a factory reset? Youd think it'd be the same.

AstraMonti · 22-07-2015 6:06am

Anyone tried skype with the new update? I can't get the camera to work during a call, outside the call or Skype works fine.
