This should solve the problem on new phone.

              A great phone destroyed by it's software! The Lenovo "oh look aren't we clever" modified android is APPalling (do you see what I did there). It crashes app's at random times for seemingly no reason, sometimes the keyboard refuses to show up, there is a security app pre installed that constantly notifies you of EVERYTHING and is impossible to get rid of, even turning of notifications only works for a while then it pops back up like a bad rash.
              The phone looks great, feels great and the battery life is great but I wouldn't recommend it because the Android installations is BROKEN! AVOID THIS PHONE. Find something that hasn't had it's ROM made by an 8 year old.

                          Worst experience ever..i don't know whether its the kitkat or the phone.. but the notification center doesn't work properly, other app notification doesn't show up unless you open the app manually, there are tons of useless app like security, clean master, du clean something, du betery something, and the worst app is update center..which has zero update since forever. installing app and playing them, i constantly pray to god. " oh lord, please don't let this game crash, im in the middle of attacking" but..you know what happens? the game crashed i just bought it 3 days ago and i have factory reset 10x already.. no kidding, keyboard doesnt show up..and there are nameless useless app hogging the ram..like whhat the f.. If god give me power to reverse time once, i'll definitely reverse to the day i bought this phone and tell my self not to buy it..cheaper phone than this has better quality. now i know no one fron the lenovo company is going to read this and even if they do they won;t care and still do nothing to avoid this problem.. ever since i bought this phone a lump in my chest appeared.. i want to cry so bad..

                              Received the phone a week ago. Looks good, the performance is good and the battery life is good as well. However, the software is a disaster: apps randomly close, the phone dialer can't identify incoming numbers if they are saved with country prefixes, icons can't be hidden from the screen (you need to disable or uninstall the app for that), preinstalled apps are awful, there is leftover chinese text in some places etc. Plus, the servers for updates & themes are extremely slow (50-70Kbps WHEN they work). Overall, a negative experience.
