Question Legion Y700?
Thread starter
Start date
I only play 1 game -- Mobile Legends which isn't even heavy to begin with but the iPad Mini 6 can't consistently run the game smoothly. It WILL stutter randomly (sometimes in the middle of the game, sometimes at the start) with no known culprit as to why it is stuttering.
It was a wise choice for Lenovo to put SD870 for its great battery and balanced performance.
I can even say it is a better choice than using the latest SD 8 gen 1 or 8+ gen 1.
The only downside of having this tablet vs the iPad Mini 6 is the front camera (centerstage). I sometimes do video calls and the FOV of Legion is comically near. And of course, the camera quality is better on the iPad.

I cannot find a sub-forum for this specific tablet, so I thought I'd post it here.
This is a Chinese-only 8-inch tablet with Snapdragon 870 and a 120Hz screen. I would very much like a small form-factor tablet with high refresh rate and this one seems to be the only one I can find on the Internet.It is just launched in China this month and there's not much information I can find about it outside China. I read Chinese so it is not a problem for me but I need to have Play Store on it as I live in the U. S. It looks like Lenovo has some track record of shipping their Chinese SKUs with GMS included so it is trivial to install Play Store from the ZUI app store. The P11 itself seems to be an international variant of such a Chinese SKU.Lenovo Legion Y700 - Full tablet specifications

Does anyone have experience with this particular tablet? Or Lenovo's (Chinese) tablets in general?
Thanks!
Hi i had one and i recently have the latest iteration of zui 14. All is good. You can also ask the seller to install Google Play and had the language in English
Would love to use a stylus with this thing. Is it the Lenovo Precision or Active pen that you have? I don't want to end up buying an incompatible one.some user says after update y700 to zui14 lenovo pen is useable. they says there is pen menu in system settings app, and palm rejection and pen pressure works.. is this true? I was heard y700 doesnt support any pens
edit : Im using GSI, after flash zui14 vendor Pen works. true.
Which pen? Lenovo has various pens which use different protocols... so if you could say which one you're using it could help others out...some user says after update y700 to zui14 lenovo pen is useable. they says there is pen menu in system settings app, and palm rejection and pen pressure works.. is this true?

Literally read the above messages..
Everything is there from now rooting to
Installing custom roms.
Ill be putting guide up on getting 2nd screen fuction to work later on
Sorry for spamming for this, I looked on the entire thread but didn't find anything about getting magisk installed on the official Chinese room. I guess there's no root options for it besides using a custom room right?
I really hope we get it soon (I would love to have pen support on this tablet if possible as seems to be the case with the update), but am worried about no desktop mode (not mandatory but definitely nice to have, I HAVE used it a few times and it helps with productivity while out and about when using a portable monitor.
So yeah, if anyone here has used it it'd be great to know and how well it works for them (I saw some comments about google play but nothing else).
This is the latest update but I don't see you guys talking about 14.0.197
There is a beta version 14.0.222 (The link is inside the QR Code) which can be a stable version if it goes well. No idea about the changelog.
So a new update is probably coming soon.

Follow what lisa has said and the install guide off magisk.
The root process is same wether its cutom or stock rom. Just boot.img fike which lisa has provided already, just follow magisk steps on how to flash over boot. Img file

Im using Lenovo Active Pen 3. works except pen button. maybe because Im using GSI, not official rom.
I heard Lenovo Precision 2 also works.
I heard there is a new pen from lenovo that have low-latency(45ms) on Y700, but I dont know its name, and i dont know other pens latency.

Thanks for the info.
How's ZUI14 working for you? Would you recommend it? I'm debating whether to do the manual update...

Im using GSI not zui14. I just flashed zui14's vendor.img and boot.img via fastboot.
If you using (official zui rom and didnt unlock bootloader) or (dont know what is gsi&bootloader), I cannot help you. I dont know how to receive zui update properly.
I heard some people dont like zui14 update due to some functions removed(pc mode etc), slightly faster battery drain etc. so I dont recommend it unless you like zui14 or want to use pen.
Using GSI, difference of how vendor.img works that I found is only three. (I also flashed odm dtbo product etc after confirm zui14 vendor makes pen works, so number 3 might be not caused by vendor?)
1. pen works (but pen button not works)
2. DT2W not works (Phh treble app LenovoDT2W option disappeared)
3. if battery ≤10%, Y700 uses only little cpu. Im not sure (this is difference of vendor.img) or (its same on zui13 but I found this recently).

I'll keep thinking on it. The pen functionality would help me with work but isn't absolutely necessary (I have a Galaxy tab s6 and the Lenovo m14t portable monitor so I can use those if need when I need a pen.

factory sealed is perfectly fine, it has english and google services right from the box. All you need is enabling them in settings and download google store APK. Also why not consider Ipad mini 6?
maam are you OK? You are on an android hacking site telling us why not just get an ipad 6 mini? lmao. most of us paid a lot of money to get this from china cause they dont sell it here we wanted it so badly. the people here havent wanted an apple device in decades unless im mistaken. And we are aware they exist but can they even block ads? doesnt matter this is about legion y700 which is a spectacular device as is but then we can flash whatever software we want. apple is not gonna let you do that hun.
I found a chinese(?) forum here, seems like a lot of complaints on ZUI14 on the Y700, not sure if we're lucky to not having gotten it on OTA yet?For now only released in China. (Just like Pad pro 2021)
Here is the ZUI 14 OTA link captured
Must be on 13.1.578 firstHello, noob question here, I got the tablet a few days ago, bought from giztop, arrived with the so called "Global rom" ZUI 13.1.570 ST. Should I change to stock rom? Can you put stock rom in english and install google play on it? Also can somebody make a quick tutorial on how to install ZUI 14? Thanks. So far tablet seems great, I encountered a pretty nasty problem that is software related?possiblly, If I am using an 18W PD charger the tablet switches from turbo charging to not charging every 30~ seconds. It's not the USB port since the OG charger works perfcetly.I can say currently using stock rom after using goba rom, stock is defo better.
Gobal has removed so many features that are available on the stock.... Tho am not sure if that was just my gobal or what....
But i had basically no legion feature what so ever.
Tho if i can get it rooted under crdroid then thats a 9/10 compared to the 4/10 under gobal rom and 7/10 stock rom.
For rom changes check the above previous page everything is there.... Literally everything so far.
Just not full rooting yet.....Thank you for that response.
But yes i wasnt sure if crdroid offered some sort of battery protection in the software. As ive seen damage of a blown battery from continuous overcharging before.
For dual wan see the attached picture.
As youll see it connects both 2.4 &5ghz wifi simultaneously so if the 5ghz drops due the signal issues it backed up with 2.4, which is really useful as it stops reconnects in game.
Is was wondering if there was anything like this available in cr droid aswell?
As for these features as prob only 2 original lenovo ones i have on here with this rom.
Because i had the legion phone, i know some of the basic legion features from it. But this rom is like a stepdown from both stock and crdroid.
So now its just deciding which one to put back on to it. What u know...or something new....
Havnt flashed device since sony experia years, so i know issue that could come with doing this aswell arghhhh....
Ah, I see... It has what's called "Adaptive Connectivity", which should keep you at 4G/5G for things like gaming, and step down to 2.4GHz when that bandwidth is not needed.
The only explanation crDroid gives you there is "Extends battery life and improves device performance by automatically managing your network connections". So I'd assume it does just that.
If you're used to the ZUI/Legion ROM and like it, I say go with that, same if you like to use the tablet for gaming.
If you want a more personally customizable tablet, go with crDroid, or LineageOS or something along those lines, maybe ArrowOS works good as well.
As you probably know, there are plenty of videos for these ROM's, as well as the stock ROM for this device .hey all, looking to get a y700 for media use (reading ebooks and plex streaming mainly) and had a few questions.
1. best place to buy from in the US? looking at both giztop and aliexpress
2. i plan on updating to latest zui version and then unlock bl/root as per instructions and installing a GSI rom. are there any that play well with the smart cover case thing?
3. any GSI rom recs? really looking for stability and a good battery life.
thanks in advance!
