Laptop returned from service depot with a missing cap

I just had a ThinkPad T410s returned from a service depot here in Canada. It was sent in to replace a small part on the underside of the laptop, which was repaired. However, it came back with one of the screws on the display missing it's cover. Based on some other posts I had read on here, I took pictures of the laptop when I packed it to go to the depot, so I know 100% that this part wasn't missing when I sent it in for service.

I've called support and I asked them to just send me the cover so that I could snap it on. However, they said they could not find a part # for it, so I'd have to send the laptop back to the depot for service again. Can anyone on identify the kit that would contain this part so that I can avoid this? In the service manual I see three different kits that include "Screw cap, thin" but I'm not sure if that's the part I need or not:
75Y4472 Screw kit for T410s and T410si
45M2673 Seal kit
45M2674 LCD miscellaneous parts
I'm quite irritated that I have to deal with this at all.
1) I don't know why they would have touched the LCD screen in the first place to replace a part on the bottom of the laptop.
2) It demonstrates a lack of detail on the service depot's part: a workbench should be checked to make sure no parts are leftover that weren't there when the laptop was unpacked. And even if the part was missing when it arrived, good customer service would be to replace it.

Lookup a local service authorized dealer in your area (lists from this site). Take it in and/or call and see what they can do. I would not let it out of my hands again or at least not to the same location.

Notebook returned from "HP Support" with dvr missing and will not power on

I had originally called in to support to ask them to help me stop the automatic update from Windoze 8 to Windoze 8.1 and to also shut off the reminder notices about that. Tech support supposedly walked me through that, but after that, the next time I booted up the notebook, it automatically updated to 8.1 anyway, and there was no way to stop it.
Shortly thereafter, the notebook could only boot to BIOS, or error code 3F0, but Windoze 8.1 had predictably self destructed and could no longer be found.
Which is also btw how I discovered that they had apparently also not installed the UEFI that they said was "installed on every laptop" blah blah blah...
By this time, I was out of warranty, but I was offered a service "deal" that seemed to make sense for the cost v.time to do it myself factor, so I took them up on it.   But I was told that if the hard drive needed to be replaced, they would not return my old hd to me, so I first had a local tech attempt data recovery on that. He didn't have time, and couldn't get it done, and asked me to try to get the hd back anyway. He also checked out some basic connections inside and stuff, to see if there was something obvious and easy he could fix.
But he also told me that a) there was a brown concrete hardened paste like substance on the back of the keyboard that would not clean off, he thought it was either some sort of plastic glue or thermal paste that had baked. and b) 99.9% of all manufacturer "technicians" will declare "liquid damage" (or some other fault of the user) and he thought I was wasting my time to send it in and they would not perform the repair.   We even bet lunch on that. BUT... I was to pay for this repair, so I decided to send it in anyway. And... he took pictures of certain things to help me if they did as he said they would.
Then, just as my local technician predicted, the notebook came back today from HP's generous service offer, not only NOT fixed, but also no longer powers up at all and no longer even has a DVR, and covered in what looks like white plaster dust. Oh and without the recovery media. I haven't opened it up to see what else is missing, but I am furious that they sent it back in worse condition.   I don't know how HP will remedy this, but I can promise you that my personal remedy will not be to purchase a new HP notebook PC. Ever.

lol. I did get a PM from support person asking for my serial number and stuff, and after I responded, I got this reponse:

So. It seems to me that HP employed people should KNOW THIS when they ask for this information this way! For the 4th(?) time... I would like to know how HP plans to actually RESOLVE the issue, since we can't seem to get beyond basic introductions?

I have a 2007 Macbook, so it's probably a lot older than your Macbook Pro, but it sounds like what happened to me, except that mine hadn't travelled anywhere. I pulled out the ram and blew out some dust, popped them back in, and wha-la! it turned back on and worked better than ever! Or otherwise you've got a dud/old/warped/fried battery, which is also what happened to my laptop - it got so bad it did what your laptop is doing. Ordered a new battery online and all good since then. Or otherwise, like the previous post asked, 'is it plugged in?'

AR invoice issued from Service module with approval procedures

When an AR invoice is issued from Service Call tab, due to the reason that we require approval, when the invoice is approved and added, the AR invoice is not captured in service call tab as a linkage. Is this the limitation in Business one? Any ideas about how to resolve this issue?

hi,
It may be due to application error,
Check this Note 1052012 - Docs that need approval cannot be created from service call

Laptop returned from warranty without hinge

About a month or so ago i sent my g70 463cl laptop to hp for warrenty. A few weeks later they contacted me telliing me that the damage my system had was not covered under warranty so they sent it back. When I recieved my laptop back it was missing the hinge from the right side causing it to swing loose a bit. It hasn't been much of an inconveinience until recently and i was wondering if there is anything i can do. Also I opened up my laptop yesterday and saw that the place where the hinge would have connected to the LCD screen has been broken off so i cannot just buy a replacement hinge. Any help would be appreciated.

If I am understanding your post, the laptop went in with the hinge working, and came back broken... if that is the case, it was probably damaged in transit. That is something you need to call HP about ASAP. They quicker you call, the easier it will be to get the issue resolved!

Hi there Jarek,
I am having now exactly the same problem; i didnt know i could find the messages in solman with DNOTIF transaction.
I could before create support messages from my satellite system, by using RFC BACK connection as log on screen, so the user was able to log on and the messages was succesfully created. Now I am trying to use this RFC connection as not log on screen, with an automatically generated user (with the RFC wizard from SMSY transaction in solman), and im getting same error as you.
I dont know if these are related, but if my explanation can help ypu, or someboday else who knows can help us please
Thanks a lot in advance

Only ints return from SQLite queries with calculations

Howdy. Hope I have the right forum for this question.
I'm on a project using a SQLite database in Flex 4 and I'm using the following SQL query:
SELECT max(totalScore) AS score,
               max(longestStreak) AS streakLen,
               max((correctNotes * 100) / totalNotes) AS accuracyPercent
FROM main.practiceRecord rec
JOIN main.lessonSession sess
ON rec.sessionGuid = sess.guid
WHERE sess.purchasedLessonID = :lessonId
The query is working fine as it is written. The problem is that when I do the calculation ((correctNotes * 100) / totalNotes) to return a percent value, I'd like to do it without having to multiply by 100, since I generally treat percentages as numbers between 0 and 1 (.68 = 68%). If I don't multiple by 100 in the query, however, I get a "0" for anything less than 1, so only 100% returns with the correct value. It appears that this kind of calculation only returns an int, as opposed to a REAL (or its AS3 corresponding "Number").
Is there something that I can do to return a value between 0 and 1 for this percentage so that I don't have to multiply by 100 in the query and then divide by 100 when I get the result? Is there a function that allows me to specify the precision for the returned value?
Thanks for your time,
Bryan

Maybe Tom Kyte's "trick" of the "select pl_sql_function () from dual" to invoke scalar subquery caching can help you:
select ename
from emp, dept
where (select dname_lookup(emp.deptno) from dual) = 'SALES'
   and dept.deptno = 30
   and emp.deptno = dept.deptno;http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:1547006324238
As Tom says, in 11g you'll be able to cache that function (new 11g feature) which removes the need for the "trick":

Windows says not genuine after laptop returned from warranty repair

I sent my laptop off for a power supply repair after it failed. It's now back and seems fine but it says windows is not genuine even after I run the online checker. Any thoughts? Back to toshiba (Again)?

> Any thoughts?
In my opinion you have two options only:
-install recovery image using recovery disc if you have one
-if you dont have recovery disc order it by Toshiba
Bringing back to Toshiba will not help much I think. I dont think they have recovery discs for all Toshiba notebook models. I presume they have installed OS for testing purposes only.

Got back new laptop from service center...unanswered questions

So I just got my i7, 4g, T510 laptop back from service center...writing from my dell b/c they forgot to send the charger with it, it wasn't charged. They reinstalled the factory preload, but said I need to go to lenovo.com/support to download the latest drivers. How do I know which drivers I need? Shouldn't they be updated if I they just put the preloaded software on it. * when I shut down the T510 after I got it back, it said there were programs still running in background that cuased me to force a shutdown...does this have something to do with the drivers? Thanks for the help, I never had so much headache over a computer.

call up Lenovo service and tell them that the power adapter was not sent back.
Download Thinkvantage System Update for the T510, that should update the drivers that you need.

How to convert localization strings returned from RIDC calls?

I'm using the RIDC API to extract some data from UCM, but I'm running into issues where some values returned from service calls are the actual localization strings ("wwDocTypeDesc_Application" for example), not their translated values.
Is there a service or method I can use to translate the strings? Something that evaluates IdocScript perhaps?

Hey Mike,
Please refer the following link.
http://www.corecontentonly.com/index.php/2008/09/16/executing-idocscript-from-java-page-merger/
looks like customization is the way forward from here. Just create a custom service, call your default ucm service from withing and before you pass on results fetch the required variable and send back.
I know this is something that should have been taken care be them.
cheers,

Copied my iTunes from my Mac to my Windows 7 laptop, now there are thousands of songs missing on the Windows copy with the exclamation point. everything shows up, playlists and tracks, there are just a bunch of songs with exclamation points. how can i properly sync my iTunes from my Mac to my PC? using iTunes

Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive. Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes. At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
