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

    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.

    But am getting stuck when it goes into recovery, it just sits there.

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

    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.

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


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,718 ✭✭✭AstraMonti


    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.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    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.

    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!

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


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,639 ✭✭✭corks finest


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


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    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.

    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?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    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?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


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