Yoga Book - Android - S000177-1610201319 Update - Warning

[Hitsuji666]

Just installed the latest android update on my Yoga Book. after the restart the device appeared to hang on a black screen as if it had crashed. After a few minutes I forced a reboot by holding the power button for 15 secs.
The device then booted to say that the encryption of the drive failed and only allowed me to reformat.
it seems the new update forcefully encrypts the user data without warning you causing what looks like a crash, so for those of your installing the update, just leave the device do its thing when you get the black screen.

Guess who just did the same mistake, after installing the update it rebooted, but screen was black for 5 min so I figured it got stuck booting.

Best user interface, use a black screen on boot to do an uninformed encryption. Quality company Lenovo.

Is this still an issue?

I got my Yoga Book last week and I installed all updates immediately. I had no problems to install everything. And tbh it's not a real issue since you have just to be patient - but it's not ok that the tablet does something and not informing you.
