  • i try to update my lenovo a5500-f tablet and it blank out an not booting up.when boot up the sound an the name appears an then cut off an keep on repeat until the battery die. when i check up on it there is no software or drivers on it, what can i do please to get them back?

  • There is a update for Android 4.4.2

  • Amazing tablet. Very fast, no lag. I recommend this prodcut

  • Why Lenovo does not update for this device? Basically, every company needs a few years of their product support

  • Same here! Anybody can fix our problems?

  • Did you try to reset the tablet? Did you try restore the system using Power + Volume Up ?

  • PLEASE HELP!!!!! my tablet wont resume to open....it only appears "LENOVO FOR THOSE WHO DO"....i caanot use my tablet :( please help me fix this!!!

  • I had it for about a year now and what a tab. For the money you get what you NEED- the display quality is excellent, ive been playing real racing 3 on it and it seems to cope with the high graphic demand, its fast enough and it stands out from from the dull black tabs with its colourful back covers. However, after a while the bulky bezel gets to you and the weight of it is a bit on the heavy side. I love it and would recommend this budget tab to anyone.

  • Any body tell where to upgrade its firmware because in about tablet its not available

  • Then you're looking in the wrong place. Places like Ebay and AliExpress have battery, cases, covers, replacement screens, glass and plastic films and more. AliExpress is a wholesaler broker who sells to the public much like Ebay only they tend to deal with warehouses directly. Ebay sellers sometimes deal with warehouses but the majority of the time they deal with brokers from AliExpress. I'd go with AliExpress where you can find better deals and prices. Plus their search engine is way better than Ebay's. Try this product code for AliExpress (32499055637). But if you insist on going back to Ebay type this number into their search engine (401048704270).

  • Yes. Update tablet using the pc app. Ota update does not work correctly until you update via pc app once. Then my ota update worked.

  • I'm satisfied with this tablet I bought this with only 3499.

  • Is this good in gaming? Please need answer.. Thanks! :)

  • I am very happy with this tablet. The design, the quality of the screen and speakers, the responsiveness of the cpu, I am completely satisfied with everything. I use several apps for my work as a sound engineer and I also use it to read e-books, watch movies, music, etc. I was happily surprised with the battery life too, which is important to me. Also, the lenovo "shareit" up is great for exchanging files between desktop pc, laptop, tablet and smartphone, especially if someone works on multimedia, like me.

  • Did you perhaps try the settings menu on the home screen and go under display and select brightness?

  • Whats App doesn't require a sim card, I have it running on a Yoga 8 which has very similar specs to the A8-5500.

  • Why cant I find a battery for my lenovo tab 8''

  • Please help me . My tablet is a very low brightness. But iame adjust but not properly

  • Emile retrieval and serial number of Lenovo Tablet

  • There is updates or should be. I bought mine on 24th November and came pre-installed with 5.0 and updated to 5.1 just after booting for the first time.

  • No, last KK update comes without updating software, which means no more updates :(

  • Is there gona be 5.0 For this tab

  • How's the gaming on this tab?

  • I have aquestioin rather than comment ........my tab every time I restart it even sometime without restart...it make auto update for contact list by its own ..... And it take 15 min ...may be more. ...which make it impossible for Mr to make any calls during this time

  • I had the lenovo a3300hv and the touchscreen was catastrophic. Is this tabs touchscreen better. Does it get android Lollipop

  • Does this Tablet support OTG?

  • very good touch,and very good for reading,

  • is the touch is very bad ? does it have a solution ? is it good in reading ? plz who bought it answer me

  • Almost a year I use this tablet and it worked perfectly like a phone and of course it satisfied my need with large 8inch screen and Dolby sound system. Its worth to buy.

  • How to transfer from my coumputer to my tablet lenovo a5500-h files???

  • Every Android device has Google Play as that's the only way to get apps

  • Only phones can use Whatsapp as you need a sim card. Even iPads can't use Whatsapp

  • Who can tell? Does it support google play?

  • How

  • Can you finally download the Whatsapp app ?

  • Why can I not load whatsapp on the tablet

  • i love this tablet and upgraded it with lollipop

  • Unfortunately there won't be a Lollipop update. I've been trying to find a custom rom, but haven't had any luck so far.

  • Had this tablet for over a year now and I can honestly say that its only flaws are its slightly on the heavy side and it can run rather hot on continuous load. Plays 720p and 800p without any stuttering, wifi signal range is above average and the battery can go all day on full load. The bezels are quite thick and the camera is near useless, but for that price its nearly unbeatable.

  • Very bad touch

  • Hi. Had this tablet for over a year. Am quite pleased, but since a couple of months I've lost the sim card On this tablet. It doesn't show anymore. I've read that this was done during a software update. Can anyone help mW re install this use full tool. Thanks

  • Got this tablet a few days ago and I'm really impressed with the performance and screen resolution !! I have an IPad 2 mini and now this Android tab as well....for the price of this tablet I highly recommend it! Just updated to latest Kitkat OS and runs pretty well!

  • received it in April/15 everything worked great, however when I now try to get into my e-mail with yahoo I would press inbox and see very small vertical lines running from left to right under inbox folder and nothing will appear if someone knows how to correct problem I would greatly appreciate it.

  • Yes its media tek but its not great proccer you can't play new games but watch movie its great but the tablet its become hot quickly

  • Purchased Lenovo A5500 24/7/2015. How/does location, date, time and weather get set by hardware?

  • Can someone who has the tablet A5500 answer for me some questions plz? 1- what is the latest firmware of android for this tablet? 2- In the CPU-Z application what is the CPU and GPU for this tablet? gsmarena says that chipset is mtk8382, while other sites say mtk8121, and GPU also differs.. please confirm what is the CPU and GPU on this tablet as shown by specs applications. 3- Which tablet is better in performance regarding gaming and multitasking ? A3500 or A5500 or Asus fonepad 8? Thank you in advance

  • This product is fantastic and so lovely, I rate it 5 star but only some error like I can't print with my hp direct wifi printer and can't call also if Lenovo can add flash light to it, it could be more great. Other feature is great I strongly recommend it.............still enjoying my lenovo tab!

  • if dear gona be android 5.0 for this tablet?

  • This tablet is AWESOME. It's super-fast, sounds great with the DOLBY/STEREO speakers. The battery is a beast! It lasts days without recharging and I don't bother turning off the wifi and the 3g to conserver it. Charging is fast (an hour or so). The games run smoothly without even enabling the 2d/3d acceleration. The camera is OK and the I/O is amazing. The contrast goes way beyond my needs and the tablet is topf for sure. I RECOMMEND IT

  • can i regular voice call ??

  • yes mr .. this tablet suport otg cable

  • Yes, this is OTG compatible. This is also one of the reasons why I bought this tab..

  • Question: Is it possible to download apps in play store just using the mobile data (3G) of this tab? I tried a couple of times but I encounter errors in downloading. My unit is A-8 50 5500-HV. Anybody had encountered this problem?

  • Mine does that too. I noticed that battery indicator gets stuck for hours around 62-65%, then resumes what i consider normal behavior, and then gets stuck again around 30-32%. And when it reaches around 20 percent drops down to zero in about one hour of light use. Also, the backplate is squeaky-squishy. Auto-brightness is useless (too dark), but there are apps for that. In the latest ota update for the HV version (141007_ROW) infinite wallpaper scrolling didn't work, and font was too small so i reflashed 130808A_ROW. Other than that, it is a decent tablet, good value.

  • I want to know if this tablet can support OTG drive? some people say cannot.. wanted to buy this tablet next month .. any suggestion?

  • Hello i have bought my tab less than 1 month ago but i observed that when battery is 15% it goes empty within 15 minutes maximum is that normal??? Please i need an answer

  • it says up to 32, not above 64. i don't think you can use more than 32

  • The GPU on this set is Mali-400MP2.

  • can i use microSD 64G because they mention above 32G !?

  • i bought this product 4 month ago but it is havining problem regarding charging. i also contacted to product supplier but they did not reply me to replace the product or to repair this product

  • hi does this tablet support a different media setting? am trying download music from my laptop but for some reason the tablet won't read it? any help please!

  • dear friends . I own this product since last two months . I recommand this product to every . It is realy value for money product which will full fill all your tab requirements .

  • i got my a5500 last week,t battery lifetime really impressed me, eventhough i've used t wifi for 24 hours.

  • I bought the tab on 13 june 2014.The tab works well until today (25 Sept 2014) and I got no problem at all.Mine is original ;) My tab was upgraded to Android Kit Kat by itself. I mean the firmware upgrade. No need to go to the mobile phone centre at all. If yours are original,then you will get the notification of the firmware upgrade. But you have to wait patiently and make sure u have good network connection(WiFi) and sufficient battery because it takes long period of time to finish the upgrade. The performance is super duper awesome because of the quad core processor. High recommendation for ppl out there to buy this. Make sure the original one. The original package : 3 pin charger + usb cable + the flip case.

  • I've had mine 2 months and I have had two booting problems. If you are going to make the investment squeeze the wallet purchase a better product. I am sorry I did not take my own advice.

  • After the experiment for 8 days has been to make sure that the copy of KitKat unusable now And better to stay on the current system And no one make update for this tablet now ( stay in 4.2.2 ) better than kitkat

  • Hi Bassem: You Should Call NTRA hotline 155 and make a complaint

  • I have tried to use GPS on my 3G a_5500 and have discovered that it isn't in the machine. As the specification states that it is should I ask for a price reduction from theshop or a refund from lenovo. To qualify my statement this is the second aas_5500 that I have had the 1st developed a fault which caused the screen to jump erraticly into other applications when it was connected to the power supply so I returned it to the shop and it was replaced with this one. This one has also started to do the same. I think the cables are inadequate. I have two hardware test apps which can show the GPS status and neither of them show it as existing or being active. I cannot get it to work in the map apps either. Den

  • i recently bought a Lenovo A5500-F 8" tablet and it was working great. But few hours ago i noticed that on one edge of the screen acts a bit weird than the other's if i have the tablet in landscape i have to touch above the home button/back button/recent apps button to actually press it and when i touch those buttons it wont work at all. What i have done is put on the developer tools on the tablet and put show touches so i see whats going on and what i notice is that when i touch the 3 buttons where im supposed to the touch actually appears right on the edge of the screen no where near my finger??? This is not due to system updates since it was doing it before the system updates. Nothing too major but it gets annoying sometimes when i repeatedly tap the home button .ect nothing works.?? any idea what the problem could be?

  • I bought it two weeks ago. Camera is superb, autofocus. Display is awesome, no lagging, very fast. Updated to 4.4.2 via software update (wi-fi). The sound is good, dolby digital makes much of a difference. Very lightweight and thin. Comfortable to handle. And the last, but not least - battery. For two weeks I had recharged it twice. More or less 5-6 days with a lot of using it. Somebody asked for standby time... well... i don't know for sure but... maybe a month? Bottom line - great piece from Lenovo!
