Hi I bought my Lenovo s890 about a year ago and the moment I got it, it froze I thought that was a one time thing so I ignored it but its happening a lot now. I have reset many times but I don’t really understand what it says when it shows the menu because it shows another language. I think its mandarin. Which one is the hard reset one? 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th? I tried the one that has mandarin and it says eMMC after but it still didn’t work. What do I do???

Hi, if you have Lenovo S890 Chinese version then all application and language will base on Lenovo China release. Therefore you can not find any Google service inside that firmware. You have to reflash with International firmware for Lenovo S890. But this process are only recommended for expert users, because wrong steps or firmware source will make your Lenovo S890 broken. Please consult with nearest Lenovo authorize service center.
