Works fine for me, try changing your 5Ghz channels.
Lenovo has their own forums that caters to international versions, not the Chinese ones.
Question [TB138FC-SD870] XiaoXin Pad Pro 2022 Sharing and support

Lenovo has their own forums that caters to international versions, not the Chinese ones.
It's the channel your 5ghz band is broadcasting on. The Chinese rom tablets won't connect to channels used in other countries due to radio signal regulations. Many routers allow you to change the channel within the admin gateway. Changing it to a higher channel such as 36, 40, 44, & 48 should force it to be visible to the tablet. For public wifi sadly there's not such an easy fix, but at least you can get your home wifi sorted.
I can't be happy because I blocked the tablet and there is no rom for it anywhere. Lenovo is a ****ty company with no support. And I wish you a broken tablet tooIt is your choice to be happy and enjoy with the tablet.
Or being sad and poking others with envy feeling.
I have the TB138FC Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2022 running 14.0.820 ST ZUI 14.
Physical keyboard misbehaves with some apps. When I have display on-screen keyboard to off, get a blank screen on a lot of apps. Resolved by switching on screen keyboard to yes even when physical keyboard is connected, but it kills a lot of screen real estate.
Not sure on the fix. Has anyone had similar problems?

Hmm... I'm not using Facebook... Not sure how this happen. Do you want to clear storage of the Facebook and login again?
Are you using Gboard? What apps that had the issue?
So far from my experience, those apps that I'm using had no problem on the physical keyboard input.
I've just switched to Gboard today to see if it solves. Will be testing later.
Before, it was AOSP, just the default when I booted up.
It just crashes when I make a phone call on messenger. It's the same error with instagram . But I have no problem with another app like google meet , line ..etc.. I think it blocks calls from facebook and instagram because It's rom from china .
I am not sure about this. Could you try to call via facebook or instagram ? I need to make sure that error by ROM. I don't have any friend use TB138FC to test it .
I've tested it with my wife on Facebook Messenger and we could talk and even video call too.
For Instagram, I do not know how to make call with it, so could not test it.
Do you mind to share the error screenshot here?

Hello!
My thoughts:
1. It is still worth to buy. On AliExptress the best price during Ali's birthday festivals (with promo codes, coupons) I found exceeds USD 320. Without VAT! So for USD 313 it is wrth to buy.
2. the stocl Chinese ROM supports Widevine L1.
3. back to point 1. Model TB138FC (with SD870) works fine for me in English, no bloatware or Chinese apps.
Would somebody - who can read it, - check the official (Chinses) Lenovo support page?! When will out tablet get Android 13?
There wasn't any mention of upgrade to A13. But they started the ZUI15 promo. No news on the OTA schedule, yet.
Is there a way to have native app that does not support full screen in landscape mode (i.e. Instagram, shopee) to display in full?
Hi, new owner of SD870 version of this tablet. Thanks for the guide on getting Google Play Store working.
I have an issue with spell checker on almost all the apps. There's no Spell Checker option in the Language & Input. I'm using Gboard and have the Spell Check option turned on. But in app such as Firefox browser it doesn't show red underline for mistyped word. I somehow managed to enable it on Brave browser, it open Setting app and show a prompt asking the app (presumably Gboard) can capture all the typed words and if I will allow it. After I press allow Brave browser now have spell check. But I can't remember what I pressed that make it show the prompt and unable to have the same thing happened on Firefox. If anyone know how to enable spell check I would be very grateful.

Frankly, I didn't feel much different but possible stability and more recent security update.

I really appreciate your informations, I hope they'll soon release the full ROM package when ZUI 15 release, so user can fix the immature software issue by their own.
I wasn't expecting that Lenovo is more less put attention about this one, which in Xiaomi brand will give better support regarding ROM package (maybe it's because from the beginning, Xiaomi focusing on their mobile products). -
