Latest Settings Dependency Package (1.2.0.21) kills TP battery meter

After installing the latest Settings Dependency Package (i.e. version 1.2.0.21)  the ThinkPad battery meter has disappeared from my Windows task bar.
Downgrading to 1.1.1.15 -- which can still easily be found via Google -- brings it back.
Bug (I guess) or feature? Does anybody have a solution or will I just have to wait for the next release of Settings Dependency Package to have it fixed?
ThinkPad X1 Carbon (3460), Windows 8.1 Preview (had this issue /w stock Windows 8 as well, so it's not Preview specific)
X1C (3460-2SG) , Windows 8 Pro

>> Would you recommend staying with Windows' energy settings instead??
Use Windows to manage power plans (e.g. Energy saver, balanced, high performance, etc) and settings (lid close action, power button action, sleep after XXX minutes, etc)
Use the Power section of Lenovo Settings (the metro app) to manage ThinkPad-specific settings, such as Battery Stretch, 30 Day Standby, etc
>> can you tell me how to uninstall the Windows 7 Power Manager? It does not show up in the installed applications control panel. 
Lenovo Settings Dependency Package and Power Manager actually share the same app GUID and several common components.  To get rid of the old Power Manager remnants which don't belong on Win8, uninstall Lenovo Settings Dependency Package.  Then re-install it.

  • [Yoga 13][Win 8.1] Unable to install the settings dependency package

    After upgrading to Windows 8.1, the extended settings for the camera (resolution and the like) disappeared from the Lenovo Settings app. The app correctly points out that I do not have the settings dependency package installed, but I have yet to find an installer for it that actually installs it (it points out that it's not a Thinkpad system).
    So, is there any way to return my camera to its former higher-quality resolution?
    If it helps, I'm running the latest drivers, and the lenovo settings app is v2.2~.

  • Lenovo Settings Dependency Package for Windows 8.1 - fails on T440s

    Hello everybody,
    I just tried to install the Lenovo Settings Dependency Package for Windows 8.1  on my T440s and it repeatedly tells me that it fails because mfplatt.dll is missing. Has anybody experienced that and knows how to proceed in this case?
    Thanks for your help

    I confirm the problem on T510 too.
    I have Windows 8.1 PRO N.
    I installed the windows Windows6.3-KB2835517-x64.msu windows media package.
    After this, I can restart Lenovo Settings Dependency Package and it works wright, without the error on MFPlat.dll
    And after it works, my camera started to work correctly!
    Bye

    As of now, no. I installed it on my upgraded W530. apparently, the Lenovo apps are coming eventually, but right now, the package is pretty useless.

  • No download for ThinkPad Yoga 12 dependency package 1.6.32.00?

    we are trying to rebuild enterprise loads, but in the support website, the only one that can be downloaded is a old version 1.6.28.0 (2014/08/14) for older models ThinkPad Yoga , Yoga 11e, X1C, X1C Gen 2 from http://support.lenovo.com/en/downloads/ds034404

    is it located in another place? or we have to call enterprise support to get it?

  • Setting Dependency Package resets sata port 0 when shutting off DVD

    The Lenovo Settings Dependency Package shuts oof the DVD after some time to save battery.
    Everytime the DVD is switched off I get an event log warning storeahci ID 129 resetting "\Device\RaidPort0".
    The same happens if I use the intel driver.
    Can I ignore this warning or must I remove the Settings Dependency Package from my system?
    Am I the only one with this behaviour or have others the same issue?
    Best regards
    MIchael

    I already replied to this same question in the other thread but I can reply here also.
    In short, there is not any fix for this issue.
    Win8/Win8.1 changed the way optical drive power management is handled.  The DVD drive in your system cannot handle the new Win8/Win8.1 method, so this error happens.  I looked into the possibility of DVD firmware update for your system, but the DVD supplier has gone out of business so firmware update is not possible.
    As long as no side-effect happens, I think you can safely ignore the message.  Otherwise you can uninstall the Settings Dependency Package.  But let me be clear that proper fix for this issue on Win8/Win8.1 is not possible.  Sorry for this inconvenience.

  • Missing ON Secunia PSI DataBase, Lenovo Dependency package & Lenovo onekey Recovery

    Is there anyone Here that would be able to please add these 2 missing programs to Secunia PSI  DataBase,   
    they are, Lenovo Dependency package & Lenovo onekey Recovery, as i cannot find the correct EXE version files to send to Secunia or find what exactly the latest versions are.
    Cheers XFOX .

    Hello,
    I believe one actually needs to report this to Secunia, and then they hunt down the information with the vendor in question.
    At least, that was my experience:  They contacted me with some questions about how to read versioning information in my employer's software in order to identify when it was out-of-date, etc.

  • Dependency Package in Exploded Application WLS6.1sp2

    I am working with the sample application used in Chapter 24 of Professional
    Java Server Programming J2EE 1.3 Edition. The application is a test for
    displaying ClassLoader information for ejb and web modules and their
    associated dependent packages. I am able to deploy the packaged EAR without
    a problem under WLS 6.1sp2, but when I attempt to deploy the same
    application in exploded format, I am getting a NoClassDefFoundError during
    deployment of the ejb module. The manifest files are unchanged and the
    dependent jar files are located at the root of the exploded application...
    below is a sample of the directory structure.
    My question is, where should I put dependent classes and/or packages in an
    exploded application and how do I setup the manifest to load them?
    Thanks in advance for any help,

    Here is the answer I received from a BEA Developer Relations Engineer
    regarding this...
    "When you deploy the EAR file, it is deployed under one classloader. When
    you deploy the EAR file in the exploded format, then each EJB jar file is
    loaded in a separate classloader. As long as the dependent (helper) classes
    are in the classpath, you can always redeploy the EJB jar file, but if you
    want to make changes to the dependent class then you have to restart the
    WebLogic Server."

    I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
    By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
    Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

  • HT1476 i-phone3 wont recharge; initially home button wouldn't work. Applied the 'auto-touch button thing' via settings. This worked until I ran out of battery life. Now it won't recharge either via laptop (usually does) or wall switch. Just a blk screen.

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.
