Hi my lenovo s820 firmware is slow. I already download and install latest firmware. After i download and finish installing it becomes faster but once the phone turns sleep when i open or use it again the firmware is back for being slow. How will i resolve it?
Hi, if your phone running slow after run in some period of time, then we suspect your trouble come from the applications. Some user have problem to find which applications that make this problems. But you can try to find out first from Menu Setting > Apps > Downloaded. If you can not find that applications either, then you should consider to do hard reset or master format to make your applications back to default again. Try to run test for ensure that the speed already back to faster again using default applications. Hard reset also recommended to do after we do update for firmware at our Lenovo S820, especially when we feel the phone not working properly after doing update.

how to move a picture from an album to another on lenovo's s820
Hi, moving picture from Lenovo S820 is the same steps as you move other files to another folder. You can use default File Manager at your phone, or you can try 3th party file manager from Google Play Store like ES File Manager or something similar that. Open the file manager, browse / choose DCIM folder, because all default camera images or pictures saved at DCIM folder. Then you can Copy and Paste to other Folder / Album that you create.
hello, why my s820 always got a chinese writing everytime i save a contacts number? any toughts?
thanx-
Hi, please make sure your Lenovo S820 language at keyboard setting already setup to English, do not activate any Chinese options. The other alternative you can do, try to download 3th party keyboard from Google Play Store, some of them that you can try have name: Go Keyboard or Smart Keyboard, most of them free although some free keyboard have disable some more options, but using free keyboard to replace default keyboard still have some benefit, including your automatic Chinese character when you write phone book.
I just bought lenovo s820 and satisfied with the quality of the camera.. But there is one problem.. When taking video, there is no problem if took it without moving.. But if I want to move to the left and to the right, the video stops for awhile.. That makes the video not smooth and seems like there is some transition going on.. Is there any solution how to make the video smooth ? For more detail, check this youtube video.. It is 100% the same.. Please help me admin ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4v8utHH0JI
Hi, this problem seems because the LENOVO S820 video recording bitrate is not too high. Therefore you can not move to fast while recording video using this camera. This situations not only happen at Lenovo S820 camera, but will happen to some brands when the minimum specification can not fit to video recording. As we know phone camera only suitable for support our daily activity while we are not bring real camera or video recording, but if you really need good camera or video recording result, then you need to consider buy or use real dedicated camera or video gadgets.
How long does a lenovo s 820 hard reset take ? I can see a counter repeatedly going from 120 to 160
Hi, try to do carefully. Turn off your Lenovo S820, try to go to recovery mode by press button:

My lenovo s820 cameras do not work, both front and back ones. When i turn super camera on, it shows black screen for few seconds, then the screen goes totally green. If I try to take photos, it freezes and shows a message " lenovo camera and gallery is not responding. Do you want to close it now?" Sometimes it seemed that the picture had been taken .but nothing was added to the gallery.
Hi, there are some tutorial at other community to make the Lenovo S820 camera become better then upgrade to latest Super Camera firmware. As far as we know, using this facility should root your phone and flash it with recovery tools. Some problems happen because doing root itself will make your phone become trouble for some situations. The super camera tools also can make crash and make the camera not work properly at some versions. Therefore please make sure you are use the factory default version to make your Lenovo S820 functions work properly. You can also try to download any other 3th party camera from Google Play Store to test weather your camera work or not. If still not work, try to do hard reset and test again the camera.

Hi, can you tell us how you flash your Lenovo S820. Basically the factory default upgrade from Lenovo comes from OTA (Over The Air) update for fix some bug at the operating system. Maybe you are talking to flash use 3th prarty custom ROM from other community. Unfortunately the custom ROM upgrade can not fix with standard operation that usually we know. So, you need to try or ask some help from that community if some trouble happen within the steps.
Hi, please make sure your power charger work properly. Try to use different Android charger to charge your Lenovo S820. If still not work, then please make sure the battery also still alive or work by test with avo meter or use different battery if available. If the phone still not turning on although you already test it with hardware button key for reset, then maybe your Lenovo S820 get hard bricks. Therefore, you have to bring it to nearest Lenovo service center for further test.
