**** The Official Lenovo P2 Thread ****

Has anybody had any freezing problems since updating to nougat? Done the update via the link in this thread and now certain apps will freeze for a moment after opening. Apps like Twitter and Instagram will freeze for a moment then carry on as normal.

Do you have an SD card inserted formatted to act as system storage or just normal storage? I had this and it was because the SD card was slowing the system down.

Yeh I had left it in after doing the update but have since removed the sd card, tried everything I can think of. Clearing caches, reseting etc last resort is to factory reset and see if that helps

A lot of people who have done the Nougat upgrade say that a factory reset fixes all bugs that they have had, so yeah, that might be worth it.
 
Factory reset done, still doing it. So annoying because everything else about the phone is rapid. Am pretty sure its something to do with videos loading which is making it freeze for a moment.
 
A factory reset is often the best option whenever a phone is playing up... make sure you back up your data,contacts etc .....just be warned Google may well attempt to reinstall your apps automatically as soon as it connects to the internet which would defeat the object

I uninstalled 29 apps from the phone and that seems to have done the trick. Not shutting down any more.

Still got the annoying issue with the search widget results closing when i press the task switch button. haven't figured that one out yet.
 
I got one a few weeks ago and the guy in the 3 store said that they were not going to continue selling them.

I am reluctant to update mine manually to nougat despite how simple it is due to the speaker decrease in loudness tho there is a further patch for that.
And also as some have reported Bluetooth stutters :( the ui is not great tho with huge icons I am hunting for a new Marshmallow launcher.

When the screen is made overly dim at night with an app some rough lines appeaer which isnt a problem but happenens with amoled I imagine.

Screen overlay popups when apps need permissions is a ***** and i would looking back have rooted the phone first off to avoid this built in annoyance. I saw someone else say theres not many roms for the p2 dunno about that tho I expect cyanogen exists.

The audio sync issue is a bit annoying but not enough for me to risk the update as going back aftwerwards is a ***** aswell so ive heard..
VLC player syncs it right for local files for me. I think the audio is ahead of the video by about 1/4 second tho online :(

But on the brightside its a top screen, battery and speaker quality :)

Do any of you guys have Bluetooth issues after the update?

Speaker decrease in loudness ?
Really ? I can't say I've noticed. I love how loud my ringtone is,louder than any phone I've used before.

I use Nova launcher and have done for years.Very customisable
 
I'd like to get one of these for my girlfriend, shame nobody seems to stock them :(

Pretty much impossible to buy over here. I know three are supposed to sell them but they never seem to have any stock?

Is there anywhere else to buy one? If not, what is a good alternative?
 
I don't know what Lenovo/3 are playing at.
This phone could have been a huge seller if they'd pushed it, especially given all the excellent reviews.
 
Yes, very strange situation.

It seems they don't want to sell them.
It certainly feels that way, well in the UK.

I don't know why cheaper phones don't come to the UK or don't get pushed in the UK. I know we're a rich market. But so many of us don't want to fork out insane amounts of money.
