Yoga 8 and 10 - KitKat 4.4.2 - Lock Screen Display

After upgrading to KitKat 4.4.2, some customers report the lock screen on their Yoga 8 or 10 tablets (B6000-F/H or B8000-F/H) does not display the application currently running when it is tapped to unlock. This is noticable when music is being played and the cover art does not show on the lock screen.
Please note that Lenovo has escalated internally on this issue. I was personally able to reproduce these reports.
These reports originated from this thread: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Idea-Android-based-Tablets/KitKat-roll-out-for-Yoga-Tablets-starting-Jun...
My personal thanks to the forums members who provided feedback to help identify post-upgrade symptoms.
Thank you for your patience,

KitKat OTA V28 was released on January 26th. It should resolve this issue.
If you are not currently running this update, you can download it by going to Setting - About tablet - System upgrade. Your device will then check to see what updates are available. These updates for the Yoga Tablet 8 and 10 (B6000 and B8000) begin with "A442_001_028"
Please note that if you have several updates to install, the device may only allow you to install two per day and the installation process may take several days to complete.

    My apps and my phone freeze up during use and go back to the locked screen. What can I do?

    Hi theora,
    If you haven't already done so, does restarting or resetting the iPhone help the issue?

  • I wanted to keep my locked screen display with the time and date from turning off is that possible

    So I enjoy my locked screen display with my chosen picture because it has the time displayed nice and big and its a cool nightlight but the locked screen display/wallpaper/time with date always goes black after 13ish seconds of locking it is there no way to let the locked screen stay on while charging? because it is awesome if it could stay on as a nightlight also so i dont have to press the lock button to see what time because the normal display is ugly am I just being super picky or am I not the only one who agrees or maybe it does exist im just stupid please respond when you can also thanks for reading much appreciated.

    Again, there is NO WAY to do what you asked: display the time constantly.
    I have a clock app that displays the time constantly on my iPad. I use it as a bedside clock. Many clock apps have the ability to disable autolock just within that app. Whether there is one that lets you pick your own background, I don't know but I wouldn't be surprised if there were, based on the number of clock apps out there. While what I'm suggestion is not precisely what the OP asked (display the system lock screen), it seems it might be a possible workaround.

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. If you did not do step 4 properly, start all over again.

  • Yoga - Thinkpad message receiver for shortcut hot keys and 30 % CPU usage after lock screen or sleep

    Hi! After returning from sleep or lock screen a process called "Thinkpad message receiver for shortcut hot keys" starts using about 30% of the CPU. Temps go upo to 60-70 degrees battery is being depleted quite fast. This process doesn't stop until I end it using task manager. Once ended that way, it doesn't start again even if I use sleep or lock screen. Need help with this!
    I didn't use to have this problem like a month ago or so. Probably came into existence after some updates.

    I am using Kaspersky Internet Secuirty 2015, when I resume my TPY from sleep, the message receiver for shortcut hot keys will show up and use 20-35% processing power which cause the laptop to heat up.
    I hope a Thinkpad rep can come in to report the bug.

  • Why do i get a camera icon and volume bar on my lock screen now that i have updated to ios 5

    Why do i get a camera icon (bottom right)and volume/buffer bar (top centre) of lock screen....only happening since ios5 update..

    It's a feature of iOS5.  If you double tab the home button, you can use the camera or play music without having to enter your lock code.  If you single tap the home button, you should just see the lock screen.  It's nice if you want to take a picture quickly.

  • Anyone else having trouble pausing and skipping music from the lock screen?

    I usually listen to music in the mornings and when I go to pause my music or change the song it simply won't work unless I go into my phone and use theistic icon to pause it or skip it.

    it works fine  on my  phone. try to check access Settings- Control center - make sure Access on Lock Screen and Access within Apps are On. while on lockscreen mode, try swiping up from the bottom of the screen to view control center. try to play a song, then swipe it down to hide the control center. u will see there music playing while on the lockscreen and can pause it from there.. hope this will help.

  • Camera is not starting. It shows something in progress and boes back to the lock screen.

    When I start the camera, it open the screen but does not open the shutter.
    and goes into a screen indicating something in progress and then in few seconds - goes back to the locked screen.
    what could be the problem?
    regards
    Yogesh

    Try resetting your phone: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.

    I just dropped my iPhone 5c and now there is a think and thick white line going down the lock screen. I am no longer able to get into my phone! Please help! is this fixable?

    You will need to take it into your nearest Apple Store for screen replacement it the home button will not work. If at all possible, connect it to your PC and back it up first.

  • Lock screen display issues - Macbook Pro Yosemite

    When waking my Macbook up after it has slept, the lock screen sometimes appears as below, with the left hand side appearing as fragmented lines and the right normally, save for the fact that the blurred image is not my current desktop background. At other times the lock screen will appear as normal, but with the incorrect blurred image. However, it will also appear totally normally with the correct blurred background too at times, with no discernible reason for any of the variations. I have tried changing the desktop background to see if that would help at all but it did not seem to make a difference. Any ideas??

    The next time the problem happens, note the date and time the problem occurred, then go to Applications/Utilities/Console and copy the log starting at the time of the crash. Paste the log in a reply. Please do not use a screen shot as they can be hard to read. If there are repeated runs of the same messages, please post only one run. Be selective about what you post and don’t  post huge amounts. Make sure there is no personal data visible. Information learned from Linc Davis.

  • Can Kin TwoM lock screen display date?

    When I turn on my lock screen, it displays the time (for easy access) in the corner, but can it also display the date?

    The only problem with this, is you have to wait for the larger time icon to minimize to the 'standard' dashboard icon. And in my opinion, this takes way too long..like 3 secs or so. It is really inconvenient, and 9 times out of 10 i find myself unlocking the phone to check the date. It really is a shame they don't have an option to by default show the dashboard on the unlock screen.

  • Tints and CYMK - Whats the difference for screen display and print

    Hi,
    What is the 'technical' difference between a tint and CYMK? For example, if i create a box with a fill of C:0 Y:0 M:0 K:40 is this the same as a black fill with 40% tint?
    Knowing that all screens and printers give different results, is the difference even noticeable? What about 'best practice' / 'industry standard'?
    Workflow/context- I create artwork (documents with combinations of images, graphics and text) in either Ai or ID which all go to PDF and I present them either on screen or through print (regular printer - none of my printed artwork use printing plates).
    Thanks for your advice in advance.

    A tint is just a lighter version of your swatch, so yes, 0,0,0,40 CMYK is exactly the same as using the [Black] swatch and setting the tint field in the panel down to 40% or creating a tint swatch with a 40% value.
    Not all colors are CMYK. On screen you use RGB and most desktop printers expect RGB data as well. On press you might use spot color inks if you have only one color and tints of that color to add, or you need some color that can't be easily produced in CMYK in a full-color job. You probably shold not be using spot color in your work since you don't go to press and printer simulations of many spot colors are quite bad. You'll find the really saturated colors tend to be out of range for most printers, too, if you use RGB, but if you can accept that your printed output may not match the screen (and unless everything in the workflow is calibrated, including ALL the monitors you might be working with and all the printers you might use for output, output on remote devices probably won't match what you see on your own monitor and printer), I would design for the screen if that's the primary presentation and let those out-of-gamut colors geet clipped in print.
    Printing tints is a little trickier than you might think. Dot gain (how ink spreads as it is absorbed into paper) tends to make tints seem a little darker in print.

  • My ipod touch screen is broken and whenever i press the lock screen button, the screen is white, what can i do to fix this?

    so my ipod touch screen is broken, and whenver i try to unlock the ipod screen, all that i can see is the top right hand corner of my ipod, and the rest is all whited out. Also, the jack which support the headphones to stay in place, one of the balls in the jack is pushed in which causes the headphones and stereo jack to slip all the time. I also have a problem which is when i try to sync my ipod to itunes. Last time i did it(which was 4 years ago), i synced my ipod and i started out with 225 songs, after the syncing process was complete, i ended up with 119 songs. I'm afraid to resync my ipod or back up my ipod to a computer because i dont want to lose the wonderful collection of 589 songs i have now. I'd really appreciate it if i got some feedback. Thanks.
