Yoga 8 and 10 Tablets - Kitkat 4.4.2 - Poor Streaming

After upgrading to KitKat 4.4.2, some customers report poor streaming on Netflix and Google+ Hangouts on their Yoga 8 or 10 tablets (B6000-F/H or B8000-F/H).
Please note that Lenovo has escalated internally on this issue. I was personally able to reproduce these reports.

Hello Amy,
I did try to do the upgrade from v20 to v24 following all the steps that you mention (going to Settings - About Tablet - System Updates) several times without success. Each time I tried the system answer to me that it is on the latest version and this is not true because I have the first one 4.4.2 June version (A442_001_020_140620_WW_WIFI ).
What more I can do...?
Thanks and regards.

Yoga 8 and 10 Tablets - KitKat 4.4.2 - Auto-Rotation

After upgrading to KitKat 4.4.2, some customers report auto-rotation does not always occur while changing modes on their Yoga 10 tablet (B8000-F/H). Reports include the Lenovo Launcher home page, Facebook, and SolMail. Hard resets do not resolve the issue.
Please note that Lenovo has escalated internally on this issue. I was able to reproduce these reports on a KitKat 4.4.2 V24 build. I noticed slow auto-rotate and I quickly developed a habit of automatically "shaking" the device one time when changing the mode to force the auto-rotation.

Note: This has only been reported by Yoga 10 Tablet users. If this is occuring on your Yoga 8 Tablet, please let me know so I can escalate it for the Yoga 8.

I can say that the wifi had not yet been fixed. My tablet was created after the dates listed for you reported updates. Mine was delivered in the first week of April 2015, and still had hasn't ups after sleep and wifi problems where it randomly drops the connection. Can't tell when the connection has been dropped since the tablet still shows that it's connected.
Please see the link below for some of us that have come together with the same problems. We all can't have crappy Internet (especially sebum we have other devices connected that are solid) . You've responded to one person in the link, the originator, but it would be nice to see some response to the remainder of the thread. Everyone is getting to where they want to return their tablets and I'm sure you don't want to lose the money and reputation.

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.

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.

WHAT IS YOUR IDEAL CELL PHONE AND TABLET/ULTRABOOK/LAPTOP COMBO?

I’d like to see what everyone here thinks is the best CELL PHONE and TABLET/ULTRABOOK/LAPTOP combination to own this year now that the CES show is coming to a close. So post up what you think is the ideal combination from what has been announced. Maybe, just maybe, Best Buy will listen and insure they carry the products we want.
My vote goes to:
PHONE = Samsung Galaxy Note LTE (unlocked - carrier independent)
TABLET/ULTRABOOK/LAPTOP = Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 13 with Windows 8 and its’ IPS touch screen
(Posted this in the Cell Phone AND Tablet forums)

Blackberry 9810
efficient keyboard for quick access to functions. How many other phones have 26 quick keys to dial a number?
convenient one handed operation on the bus because it has a trackpad
great battery life with the slower processor
user replaceable battery. You can change a battery for the cost of a good dinner. Other phones have sealed batteries that force you to get a hair dry to rip the battery out. Basically they force you to get a new phone....SCAM
durability..... seen too many cracked Apple screens. Takes a lot of punishment without needing a THICK "bumper"
brightness.... notice how dim iPhone screens are on bus compared to other phones?
data compression.... doesn't rack up my data plan. Doesn't have Siri. Blackberry uses 1/3 or 1/6 the data compared to other phones. Very important, especially when travelling
BBM saves me money when texting with other international BBM users.
the 9810 sliding mechanism means the phone is compact when not used, but grows in size when needed
the 9810 keyboard does not shrink my viewing area when I'm typing
Blackberry Playbook
plays flash websites.... i got tired of Apple forcing websites to create an App to work (scam)
fits in my purse and pocket
dual speakers without a dock..... it's amazing the audio quality
stereo microphones
smart bezel where the frame is an added touchpad functionality
With the upcoming OS update next month, Blackberries can take remote control of the Playbook tablet.... HOT as the phone keyboard can be used as Playbook tablet keyboard and phone screen become a mouse!

Lenovo Yoga 8 Tablet stuck on boot screen

Hello!I have a Lenovo Yoga 8 Tablet and today I can't turn it on. It sticks on boot screen. I tried to factory reset but nothing changed. Any help?

Think I got it sussed ... now if I can only remember how I did it !!Several posts on this forum had the problem with it stuck on the Lenovo splash screen and Fumangord1 on here mentioned "If you hold the volume buttons in and hold the power switch it should give you the boot options. Select the recovery mode with the up volume button then press the down volume to ok it. Mine comes upo with the android icon and NO COMMAND." Well, I tried this and got the same BUT went a bit further with it, just by pressing buttons in a random fashion ...When the Android robot icon comes up with NO COMMAND, I think I then pressed the ON button and another Boot drop down menu popped up.I think I tried this next bit twice,but can't remember which one worked, but just have a play with the new options to see which one works for you !?First I think I selected the top one which is something like REBOOT and I then the second time I tried the bottom option which is something like WIPE CACHE and hey presto .. . it now works with every app and setting intact !I'm only going by what I remember doing - it might not be quite right, but at least there does seem a way round the issue ! God know's why Lenovo themselves don't reply to these posts and tell us how to fix their bloomin' machines !!?? Good luck everyone !

64 bit Windows on Yoga 2 tablet

Well this doesn't sound good. My Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 13-inch model has 4GB of RAM, but due to the 32-bit OS I'm able to access ~2.5GB of it. Hopefully with Windows 10 Lenovo will send out updates for a 64-bit UEFI BIOS and then able to go with a 64-bit Windows 10 OS.

I've just bought a Yoga 2 tablet with Windows 8.1.It has 32 bit Windows installed. I have some questions; 1. Would 64 bit Windows work? My tech skills are a bit rusty but if I found the Windows registration/product key for my install, could I do a fresh 64 Win 8.1 install, using that product key? 2. Does anyone know why they decided to install 32 bit as default? Maybe there's a problem with 64 bit? I know the CPU is 64 bit, so I'm a bit confused why they chose 32 bit. 3. Does anyone have an opinion on the Windows 10 upgrade? Do you think it will offer the choice to upgrade to 64 bit Windows 10? Thanks guys.

You may need to boot Windows with Driver Signing Enforcement disabled to get the drivers installed.
Try this:

If that doesn't work, try the drivers from this thread, it's the same chipset:

Yoga 10 tablet HD+ won't start or charge

In some cases, an IdeaPad Yoga 10 HD+ (B8080) system may not start properly, or might not charge properly. If you have experienced these symptoms, please follow this procedure to resolve the problem.
Press and hold the Power button for 64 seconds. (This will perform a soft system reset )
Update system to vision B8080_S102206_140922_ROW_3GData, B8080_S102207_140918_ROW_WiFi or above by OTA (Over－the－Air Technology).
For how to update system, please click here.
Verify charging function to ensure unit is working normally
This is not the same as the factory reset option, and should not affect data.
If the issue remains after upgrading to this release or a newer one, please contact Lenovo Service for support.

I have the same problem with my B8000 Yoga 10' tablet in that after charging it overnight with the supplied charger, it now boots only as far as the Lenovo screen. If you hold the power button in for several seconds it will turn off and when plugged into the charger it shows only an empty battery. I have tried various USB chargers with the same outcome.I also went into the system settings by holding the power and volume buttons simultaneously for a few seconds and found no options under system repair, only the symbol of an android lying on its back, so that's not a lot of use.This unit is still under warranty. Are there any other suggestions for a cure to this problem before I'm forced to send it back.

How do I add a mobile and tablet site created in Adobe Muse to an existing website?

Hi I have created a mobile and tablet version of an existing site in Adobe Muse and would like to add these versions without affecting the original site! is this possible?

Are you planning to have separate URLs for desktops, tablets and mobile devices? That seems like a logistic nightmare to maintain.
Why haven't you re-built your desktop site with FluidGrid Layouts or CSS Media Queries in DW? One site that works in all devices makes more sense.
Example with FluidGrid Layout (re-size viewport):

Hi there T&P63385!
Look no further! I have the answer for you! You can add a new email account to your android device by following these steps: http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=31401
Now I do want to let you know that your phone has a "main" gmail account. If this "main" gmail account was the one you deleted it may be best that you reset your phone and activate it to your new gmail address.
The reason I recommend doing this is all of your purchased application information is also tied to your gmail.
Ensure your personal information is backed up (contacts, pictures, etc) and follow these steps to Hard Reset your phone:http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=31308
Let me know if you have any other questions!

Yet Network control panel says I am connect to the modem, and Network Diagnosis says I am connected to the Internet. It's like the blind man who has eyes that cannot see. BTW, I am not some newbee. I have been a Machead since the early nineties and set up a half dozen networks, including the one I am using at home to which the iMac mysteriously is there but not. This has me stumped! I am considering going back to 10.7!
