I just want to know what specific smart phones that I can purchase that use Firefox. Thanks.

I am purchasing a mobile phone after not having one for five years. I like to use Firefox at home and need to know specifically what smart phones use this product. The android 2.2 etc. and the rest really does not mean anything to me. You could tell me how to find this information on your website. I found one page that listed devices but then it said something about going to Google Play Store and you lost me. FYI, I have a very sharp learning curve.

Will Firefox work on my mobile device?
Firefox is compatible with Android 2.2 and above devices. Installation requires about 24 MB internal storage, 384 MB of RAM and a display that is at least 320 pixels high and 240 pixels wide. You can download Firefox for Android or search for Firefox in the Google Play store.
Important: Some of the devices listed here only work with the latest version of Firefox. If you search for Firefox in the Google Play store and don't find it, your device may not be compatible.

[HOWTO] CM on K860/860i LePhone (update 11/03)

I just got myself a new K860i and this small write up is for anyone looking to install CM (or any other available ROM for that matter) and for me to keep all the pertaining info in one place.
Also because what is already available on the net has high noise to signal ratio.
To root the device, easiest method is to install ExynosAbuse, latest version as of this writing was 1.40.2.
You can find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35512626
Download, install and run the app, root the device only!
I have to highlight here to not use the app to patch the device, otherwise you will lock yourself out of camera on a non-rooted phone and there is no other way to recover but to reinstall the original ROM from sdcard!
Another reason is that supposedly since Android version 4.1 this vulnerability has been patched, although it obviously still exists on Lenovo's remix.
In case the original image is needed, following link provides links to OEM images:
http://bbs.lephone.cc/thread-367569-1-1.html
Item 15. is the latest one at the time of this writing. Installation method is the same as for the rooted phone mentioned below..
For those interested in the details of the vulnerability and the exploit itself, you can read more about it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048511
On to the CM installation. Cooked unofficial CM ROM is done by Chinese smack-fu master zuncun, user on bbs.lephone.cc, Chinese xda for lenovo phones, so to say.
Here is the link to his latest ROM v2.5 thread, at the time of this writing:
http://bbs.lephone.cc/thread-517538-1-1.html
Link for ROM:
http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=254959&uk=3910139059
known BUGS (hat tip to buddinggeek):
*headphones not working, no sound/crackling noise
*WiFi MAC changes on every reboot
Create a folder named sdfuse in the root of the sdcard and place the szb image in it. Shut down the phone and switch it back on by pressing Vol_UP+power_btn.
Phone will enter recovery/diagnostics mode. Here you use vol_up/down buttons to navigate and power_btn to execute.
You have to pick SD update here.
After making the selection, the phone will do the rest, it takes about three to five minutes.
Upon rebooting you will be greeted with spanking new CM10 interface.
You can additionally install Google Apps, found here: http://goo.im/gapps
Downloaded zip file is to be copied to sdcard root folder and renamed to update.zip
Reboot the phone by pressing power_btn and select Reboot>Recovery.
Upon reboot you will be presented with recovery menu in chinese, I'm assuming here it's rebadged CWR but anyway. Select second entry from the top, go to the second entry that mentions ./update.zip and select it. The longest entry to confirm the action is near the bottom. Once its done, choose the first entry in the root menu to reboot back to the OS.
Additional apps from Play store, to increase control over the device and beef up the security a bit:
1. ESET USSD control
2. DroidWall
CWM based recovery in English v6.0.2.8, tested and working on my phone:
http://bbs.lephone.cc/thread-524604-1-1.html
Unfortunately you will need to register to see the link to the recovery image.
Installation procedure is same like for the CM ROM installation ie SD update from ./sdfuse folder. Make sure that this is the only szb file in the folder.
I may or may not answer questions here, the info provided here is *as is* for the sake of "increasing signal" and I am not responsible for any potential bricked devices.
EDIT: Lenovo open source page with source for K860:
http://www.lenovomobile.com/opensource/index.html
EDIT2: added bug info provided by buddinggeek. Thanks!
EDIT3: Added entry for CWM in english

I used CM10 for sometime before restoring back to factory ICS. Headphones ain't working and so so is Wifi.. random mac addresses on every boot? Is everything running normal in your phone?

K860 Echo Problem

Hi everyone,
I just bought my new K860 smartphone last Dec 2012, I didn't notice it until one of my friends told me that his voice is echoing when I call him, I tried to call my other friends and have the same scenario.. Please help.. Thanks!

Have you tried a factory reset to see if it was a setting? If problem exists after a reset, then it would be a hardware issue that would need to be repaired.

Can I return my Lenovo S 205 ?

Hi guys, I have had a multitude a problems since owning my Lenovo S 205 some 8 months ago.
I got the laptop via Laptops Direct, an online laptop store.
The first problem I experienced was when the laptop kept on shutting down on its own quite a few times. This I later discovered was because the laptop battery had a tendency to become loose sometimes.
The second problem was when it began to freeze after I installed another version of MS Office.
The third problem was when it lost its bluetooth capabilities, although the bluetooth device had been detected as present.
I managed to get the second and third problems fixed by a friend. However, after two weeks, the two problems have returned...TA-RAAA !
I can only recommen other people to stay away from Lenovo right now !
Does anyone know if I can return my Lenovo laptop and get a refund for it, so I can get something else like a Toshiba or an Asus ? Thanks very much !

hi teresanazir,
sorry to say that but refund is not possible at this point. have you tried to contact lenovo support line to ship it back to service for your issues?

Can I return my new laptop to lenovo because of its quality problem?

IBM is one of the best brand as I know, especially showing us not only high quality of products but the service.
But now one thing happened to me, if I don't have this case I can't believe. I found there is something with the laptop(T61 Model 7658CTO) the same day when I got the new laptop on June 3rd, 2008. Then I call 800, a lot of 800 calls,at last I were told that I should contact send it back first if I were to get another new one. Three days later I got the box sent by Lenovo, and I return it back in terms of what the paper shown.
Unfortunately the problems of the laptop still exist when I turn on my laptop after it repaired. What's wrong with my laptop, this is new one, I think IBM should provide high quality products.
I don't know how to describe the weird sound , it sounds like two or more micphone opened clost to each other. It is very harsh.
I want to get one new laptop from Lenovo because of the quality of product and customer service or can I return the laptop?
I would appreciate any advice you can give me.

Like Obama says... yes you can
I did it last week because I bought an iPhone 4 as a wedding gift but then I changed my mind and wanted an iPad, so the bride could use it together with the groom (while the phone is personal).
I returned the iPhone to the apple store and I paid the difference to buy the 32GB iPad, no problems
I didn't opened the case, but the guy at the apple store told me I could have returned the phone even if it was opened. It must be undamaged tough.

Lenovo AIO C440 - not working infrared remote control

Hello,
is there any hint how to get infrared remote control working for a new C440 model? Tomorrow I will try to measure and/or replace batteries which could be bad. For now it is totally not working.
Another question: the remote should work only within AverMedia TV app or in the whole Windows 8?
Regards,
Zdenek

hi bohdik,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
The IR Windows Media Center remote control is for use with C440 models with optional TV tuner. If you have this model, make sure the TV Tuner driver and the ITE CIR Driver from the lenovo support site are installed under Device Manager (press Windows Key+R then type devmgmt.msc) then follow the Set up a TV signal in Windows Media Center. guide.
Note:
You must have Windows 8 PRO to enable Windows Media Center
See this articles in reference:
How to add Windows Media Center to Windows 8 Pro

Hope this helps

Memory upgrade on Lenovo 3000 j100 (product number: 8254-E6G)

First of all, sorry for my English (I'm trying to improve it)
I run a Lenovo 3000 j100 Desktop with 1GB RAM with two modules of 512MB each one installed on the two slots that the mother board has.
I want to upgrade that memory to 4GB, but I have some doubts about that upgrade that I need to solve before buying the new memory additions.
I've read some commentaries about this topic and there are people who say that the maximum memory size for this models of Lenovo is 2GB RAM, I mean one module of 1GB on each slot.
However, the manual says that these desktops can be upgraded to 4GB RAM.
In consecuence, which is the maximum memory size supported by my Desktop's mother board ?
Sorry for my English again, I hope someone could help me because I wrote this question to Lenovo support and this service answered that I had to read the manual, they didn't solve my question.
Thank you for your attention.

Many thanks for your answer, but the type of memory of my computer is not the same as yours.
My Lenovo 3000 j100 memory sticks are not DDR2, they are DDR.
They have a sticker with this text on:
NT512D64S88B0GY-5T
512MB DDR-400MHz-CL3
PC3200U-30331

Memory problem on a Lenovo 3000 0769-BAG

Hi !
I own this nice machine, and put into it a Linux 64 bits OS. (Fedora 7).
Everything is working fine, but I needed more memory to be able to scan/process large images.
So I went to Lenovo web site and saw I needed PC2-5300 Sodimm memory. For a maximum of 4GB.
I've bought 2 Sodimm labelled like that : 2GB DDR2-667Mhz-CL5 based upon 16 chips labelled PR128MB-3 "Made in Taiwan" ...
So I removed the 2 512MB modules and put the 2 2GB modules. The BIOS see them and count up to 4096 GB. Fine.
But after POST, Nothing happens. No beep no disk activity, no nothing. The message "Press F1 to enter BIOS or F12 for boot menu " disapears, the cursor goes on the upper left corner and that's it.
So I removed the first 2GB module and put an original 512 MB instead. The machine boots fine, I'm able to successfully test the RAM either with the Vista boot menu option or the Memtest which came with Fedora.
I've swapped the 2 GB module and done the very same test. OK. So I'm pretty confident on the operation of the 2 2GB modules. Vista and Fedora proudly announce near 2.5 GB of memory (depending of the shared memory assigned to the Intel Graphic card)
If I put the 2 GB module on the first slot, and the 512 MB atop, the machine refuses to boot.
So, Either there is a problem with my memory modules, or there is a problem accessing the maximal capacity using 2GB modules ? What do you think and what should I do ?
TIA !
Oh, BTW the BIOS is 68ET21WW (V1.05)

Very curious indeed!
You mention you have BIOS V1.05, the latest on Lenovo is V1.02 but with the same number 68ET21WW that you have. Typo?
Are there any memory settings in BIOS that you can play with?
Put in a 512/2GB combo, go to this webpage from Crucial, scroll down and have it scan your system.
Repeat with the other 2GB. What are the results?, are those 2GB sticks what they are supposed to be?
As you run Linux, I am at a dead end here, no knowledge.
I assume you have installed (not just downloaded) all the Lenovo updates for Windows?
A 32-bit OS can only address 3GB, so 4GB would be a waste.
A 64-bit OS (both Linux and XP or Vista) should be able to work with 4GB.
Can you borrow a 1GB stick and see if it works with 3GB?
EDIT:
After hunting around on the web, it seems that there is a RAM limit for the Lenovo 3000 N100.
Also, Lenovo says this on their website:
1 GB (footnote 4) (2-512 MB DIMMS) PC2-5300 DDR2 667 MHz memory, expandable with optional SDRAM SO DIMM module to a maximum 2.0 GB (footnote 5)
Support Center: 800-426-7378
4: For PCs without a separate video card, memory supports both system and video. Accessible system memory is up to 128 MB less than the amount stated, depending on video mode.
5: Memory options up to 1024 MB PC5300 DDR2 SDRAM SO DIMM can be added for maximum memory expansion.I picked up somewhere that some BIOSes test for an original Lenovo RAM stick, but could not find this reference again.
If you get that 1GB + 2GB working, that will be the max, otherwise hope for a new BIOS that will allow for 4GB.
On Buy.com (sells Kingston RAM), several users reported success with 2x 1GB Kingston RAM.

How do I Find/Set/Change a Bluetooth passkey on a T61 laptop with the Lenovo US/Eng Vista OS image?

I purchased a T61 two years ago. It came with the Lenovo Vista Ultimate OS, US/English. The T61 has Bluetooth, which I never used until now.
I try to pair a cell phone and a PDA (both Palm devices) with the T61, and the devices ask for the T61's Bluetooth Passkey. I don't know what the passkey value is, nor do I see anywhere to set, change or enter it.
This is how I know the the Bluetooth device driver is working on the T61: 1- The BT icon shows in the taskbar, the BT controt panels open, and even in Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Bluetooth Devices, the phone name shows up. And strangely enough, at the bottom of the control panel, when the phone is listed (is discoverable), it shows "Paired: Yes", "Authenticated: No", attached image shows these values.
I'm stumped. Where do I lookup, set or change the T61's Bluetooth passkey?

Unfortunately that is not working. I've tried 0000, 000000, 00000000, 1234, and 123456 as the keys. No popups, no response whatsoever on the T61.
The devices seem to wait some timeout period and then a message "cannot connect to T61...". I don't have the exact message here in front of me, but can get it if need be.

Intel Core i7 4700MQ CPU @ 2.40 GHz,
8GB RAM
Hybrid 1TB + SSHD(8G),
NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M / 2 GB,
DVD-R,
Win 8.1
After using the device for 3 months I can't describe with words how dissapointed I am.
It is unbelievably slow. The device with this configuration should do very easily hard things.
However, I have troubles doning even simple things.
For example, currently I am only browsing web and listening music from youtube.
Opening a new web page in Chrome takes 30-40 seconds. Opening a new tab takes aprox. 10 seconds.
Selecting a text and copying it, takes 15 seconds. It is even very frustrating to type even a web address because of the obvious delay in typing. Furthermore, when I listen to music there is also a delay - that makes even listening to music unbelievably frustrating. Just to mention one more time - I only have chrome running!
I have 2 Partitions - C disk (442 GB) and disk D (488 GB).
On disk C I installed Win 8.1. and at the moment on disk C 391 GB are free.
I use disk D is mostly intended for storing images, movies, and music. On this disk 258 GB are free.
Regarding the programs I installed on top of Windows, here is the list: micro Torrent, Adobe Photoshop, Android SDK Tools, Android studio, Avast Internet Security, Brackets, Corona SDK, Dropbox, Foxit Cloud, Foxit Reader, Chrome, Greenshot, MS Office, Mozilla, Skype, Notepad, VLC Player, WinRAR, XAMPP.
When I open Task Manager I see that used CPU resources are aprox. 10%, Memory aprox 35%, Disk 2%, Network 5%.
I am the only user of the device.
In Task manager I read that only Chrome takes the most of the resources taking 130 MB memory.
So why is the device with 4 physical i7 Intel processory and 8 GB SSD so slow, that I can't even type without disturbance with delays?
I don't understand how the device with mentioned hardware can be so slow.
And regarding the software, I don't understand whtat could slow the device - I mentiond what programs were installed and to what extent are resorurces being used.
Please give me your advice on what else can I check and what shoudl I do.

Can you run a system health check once and see if anything is flagged? To do so,
1. Press the + R keys to open the Run dialog, type perfmon, and click/tap on OK.
2. If prompted by UAC, click/tap on Yes.
3. In the left pane of Performance Monitor, click/tap on Data Collector Sets to expand it, click/tap on System to expand it, right click on System Diagnostics, and click on Start. (see screenshot below)
4. It will collect data for 60 seconds before the system diagnostics report will be ready to view instep 3 of OPTION TWO below.

Sluggish Performance & Audio Problems in Lenovo T520

I have experienced strange problems with my Lenovo T520 (specifications: i7, 6GB RAM, I can post detailed configuration). The problems are:
The audio quality is noisy. What I find strange is the audio quality for the same song worsens when play in VLC media player (more noise) v/s when played in Windows Media Player
The performance is sluggish and the system freezes when moved. What I mean is if I am watching a movie and lift the laptop from one place to another. The movie freezes while moving & audio stops. Once stable again the video and audio synch up again
Trackpad unresponsive: The trackpad get unresponsive at times, but the Trackpoint is working fine.
Could you post a solution to any of the problems?

For the sluggishness....
(1) Make sure the power cord is plugged in. I know...sounds dumb, but I had the same problem with my new T520 and I saw a thread on here stating that Lenovo thought it would be a great idea to make your new T-Series laptop run slow when on battery.
(2) Closely inspect the "Power Manager" profile you're using. I noticed that even the "Maximum Performance" (or whatever it's called) profile was set to NOT best use the CPU. In Power Manager, click "Advanced" at the top to go from "Basic mode" to "Advanced mode", then click the profile you want to use from the vertical list on the far left. Then on the right side, expand the first drop-down category called "Performance" or something like that. Now there will be two columns under that category...battery on the left and AC power on the right. On the AC power column set the drop-down box to the "Maximum Turbo" setting.

External usb ultranav keyboard; no trackpoint using ibm/lenovo driver in Win XP

I just got an external USB ultranav travel keyboard (product #31P9490) and I am trying to make it work with Windows XP.
When I just plug in the keyboard, the default windows USB keyboard and mouse drivers work well enough that I can use the keyboard as well as the touchpad and the trackpoint.
But, when I install the two official drivers (one for the keyboard "hotkeys", the other for the touchpad and trackpoint from Synaptics) then I lose the trackpoint fuctions. These are the two latest drivers linked to this web page:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-60649
After the Synaptics driver is installed, the option to enable the trackpoint is greyed out. All the touchpad functions (scroll zones, tapping, etc.) seem to work. The keyboard function keys work also. But, the trackpoint is non-responsive. The "Synaptics touchstyck" driver doesn't seem to do anything. The trackpoint is no longer associated with the generic USB mouse driver, so the trackpoint stick and three buttons no longer do anything.
My situation is similar to what is described here, except I don't think there is any mechanical problems since the trackpoint works fine with the default mouse driver:
http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=Options&message.id=322&query.id=75669#M322
I tried the drivers on two different Dell PCs and got the same result.
Has anybody have one of these keyboards gotten the trackpoint to work with the IBM/lenovo drivers?
Thanks,
Doug

I'm obviously doing something wrong. Several reboots later, I'm stuck with the same inability to turn the touchpad off. Here is what I did.
1) Uninstall the driver - success. Prompted to reboot.
2) Rebooted.
3) Installed installation program (started at page MIGR-60649); ran the downloaded file (q2kyb02us13.exe) and changed install path from the default C:\IBMTOOLS\drivers\q2kyb02us13 to c:\Drivers\q2kyb02us13 .
4) Ran setup.exe from that location.
5) It seemed to work properly and I was prompted to reboot. I started the process but was alerted to a window telling me to check the installation and possibly redo it for compatibility with recommended settings. I did *not* do this but forced the reboot.
6) Back up, I clicked on Start ... Devices and Printers, and right-clicked on IBM Keyboard with UltraNav. I had options for the mouse and keyboard, but nothing about Ultranav.
7) I tried to uninstall, but this driver no longer appeared on my list of installed programs. Yikes! I tried again, this time going with the default location (C:\IBMTOOLS\drivers\q2kyb02us13) and catching the compatibility wizard - and letting it reinstall with recommended settings.
8) Reboot and still can't update the Ultranav - and still don't see it listed in installed programs.
Help! What am I doing wrong??
