Lenovo B570 Bluetooth & Card Reader

Can someone please tell me the part numbers / FRU for a bluetooth module and the card reader. I would like to add bluetooth to this laptop and the card reader isn't working. I don't know if the card reader ever worked since I never used it. I tried using it the other day and it doesn't work. I looked in the BIOS and reinstalled drivers. I'm not even seeing it in the device manager. I'm thinking it's either bad or a loose cable. I would appreciate any help in identifying and obtaining these parts.
TIA

Bump!
Please help if anyone has any information.

Hi:
Try this driver.
If this driver doesn't work, and you want to run W7, then you will have to install W7 64 bit, for which there are graphics drivers.

B570 USB ports and card reader result in error of "not accessble" until system is restarted

Hello,
I have a new IdeaPad B570. Whenever I plug in my external hdd or other device (like iPod) in any of the three usb ports I get an error that the drive is not accessible...until I restart the computer and then it recognizes it with no problem. The same thing happens when I put my SD camera card into the card reader. This is annoying for things that should be plug and play. However, when I plug in a mouse it connects immediately.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you!

Lenovo G480 unable to read SDHC card

Hi
I having an issue with my G480 unable to detect my SDHC card. I have install both drivers for my card reader from Support site but still unable to read my SDHC card even my camera can use the same SDHC.
Any one have similar issue?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi mynorkin,
If you have the Lenovo G480 (type 2184 or 2688) as listed in this pdf data sheet, this doesn't support SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) as the card reader installed on these system is only a 2-in-1 reader which only supports MMC and Secure Digital Card,
As an alternative, you can get a USB Card Reader.
Edit: Added sample usb card reader.
Hope this helps.

Lenovo N500 - card reader - drivers issue?

Hello,
I tried to use my xD memory card in card-reader in Lenovo series 3000 n500, ns 4233-4AG.
Unfortunately, it isn't working. Other card types (SD, MMC) are working well.
What's the hell? In official spec. on Lenovo's site, this model is operating xD cards. Link: http://www5.pc.ibm.com/europe/products.nsf/$wwwPartNumLookup/_NS74Axx?open&OpenDocument&epi=web_expr...
Is it drivers problem? Where can I download valid, with xD support?

Hi: See if the windows 7 driver works for you... This package contains the driver for the JMB38X Card Reader Host Controller in the supported notebook/laptop models and operating systems. The JMB38X Card Reader supports the following media types: SD, MS, MMC, and xD. File name: sp45180.exe

Card Reader not working in Lenovo G500s (Code 43)

Card Reader is not working suddenly. It is saying Port Reset Failed (Code 43).
I updated the card reader drive, the cipset driver and the bios, the problem stays same. Also tried other solutions from the net, nothing helped. I also did a hard reset 1 month ago.
So is this a hardware problem for sure or should I try something else?

Hi,
Did you make any changes to you PC prior to the time that the media reader quite working?

I have another Lenovo laptop running a very similar install of Arch and this works fine. This has a different Bluetooth adaptor though, made by Intel with USB ID 8087:07da. If they're side-by-side I can pair a mouse and a phone to the other one, but nothing at all shows up on the one with the Realtek adaptor. Any help would be very much appreciated!
EDIT: Just tried this laptop with Ubuntu 14.04 and 12.04.5, didn't work with either. Same problem. Bearing in mind the two threads linked above are unanswered and this clearly hasn't broken recently, I guess this adaptor just doesn't work in Linux (yet). Looks like I'll be returning this one to the store, which is a shame as it took me months to find a 1080p laptop for a reasonable price.
EDIT: Unnecessary test but Fedora 20 behaves exactly the same. I'm not sure how many current laptops on the market use this chipset, but it looks like a lot of Lenovos do. I have a netbook with a Realtek SD card reader that stopped working in Linux due to some kernel modules being amalgamated, but it works again with the current kernel. I may just sit tight on this one.

I had similar issues, downgrading to bluez4 might help, but I found it was much more of a hassle.
I had the most success using vanilla bluetoothctl commands to pair with the device, then using dbus commands to register the bluetooth device as a network access point or see device capabilities.
Are you using a network manager? I found NetworkManager was unable to set up the access point due to an error with its dhcp client setup, but connman was able to do it. Or by issuing the right dbus command, I created the network device manually and then ran dhcpcd on it directly.

Lenovo B570(P/N:59316294) support mSATA?

Dear forum members.
I have a lenovo B570 model with P/N : 59-316294 (Model No : 20093) that I bouhgt in 2012 Sep.
Recently, I hope to speed-up my B570 to attach mSATA SSD.
If my B570 is opened, the feature is as belows.
If bottom cover is opened,  blank slot is appeared.
My questions are
This blank slot is mSATA?
    : I know that mSATA slot has same pin as min PCI express but two are not compatible each other.
      B570 model has mSTAT Slot?
Pleaese share your knowledge.
Thanks.

hi yangwool,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Looking at page 38 of the B570 hardware maintenance manual, the Mini PCI-E slot is being used by the Wireless card and/or a WWAN card.
- Link to picture
Although an mSATA SSD would fit on that slot, the manual doesn't indicate that the slot is electrically compatible with an SSD (unlike other models like the Lenovo Y460's mini PCI-E slot (more info on page 28 of HMM):
If you're leaning towards an SSD upgrade, it would be best to replace the stock HDD with a 2.5" SATA SSD (like this item).

Lenovo B570 boot fail

Hello.
I have Lenovo B570 laptop for two years. I last two months appears error when starting.When I press start button nothing is happening.Start button lights and fan works very hard.After 10 days I started again and was working normally but trought 5 days again same error occurs during the startup. Does anyone has a solution or can teach me what to do about this ? Someone told me that motherboad is dead, someone that problem is with intel graphic ...I dont know, I am sad :/

Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
From what you have described it sounds like your laptop has a hardware problem. Try doing what I call a soft reset of the BIOS. This can be useful in some situations to resolve hardware conflicts Here's how......
1. Unplug the charger / adapter
2. Remove the battery.
3. Press and hold the Power Button for 15 seconds.
4. Re-install the battery, plug in the charger / adapter if needed and power up the system to see if the problem was resolved.
If that didn't resolve the problem then I would suggest removing all the hardware from the computer. Take out the DVD drive, hard drive, wireless card and one of the memory modules if you have two installed. Try booting up the laptop and see if it run without errors. If not, try the memory module in the other slot. If the problem still persists try the other memory module in each slot. If the problem still persists then suspect the motherboard is at fault. If the laptop boots up then start adding hardware one piece at a time and try booting up the system. If the laptop continues to boot up add another piece of hardware and boot up. Do this until you find that the last piece of hardware installed will not boot the computer. That would then be the faulty piece of hardware that is causing the problem.
The link below is for your model's Hardware Maintenance Manual. It will explain how to remove the various hardware items. When working inside your system please follow all precautions and recommendations that are noted in the manual.

S300 supported Wifi/Bluetooth Cards ???

Hi guys,
i already bought an Lenovo Ideapad S300.
I tried to replace the existing WiFI/Bluetooth Card with an Atheros AR5B195 Card but I realized that Lenovo has an BIOS blockage for those cards.
I got two Questions now :
1. Is there a White List for the S300 Model? And if so, please tell me the Cards on.
2. In Bios Update Notifications for v8.07 is a hint "Add support 4 new WLAN cards".
Which are these cards? And should I update to v8.09 than for better card support?
Thank you for your help.
My actual Bios Version is 6DCN88WW(v8.02).

I don't know about the WiFi card, but do you have a link to the Bios files you mention?

Flex 14 SD card reader not working with larger cards on Windows 8.1

The card reader in my Flex 14 is behaving very oddly. When I insert a 16GB SDHC card it makes the 'USB inserted' noise and the card shows up under device manager but I can't access it through file explorer. The card reader works fine with smaller SD cards that I have. I tried the card in another, Win7 laptop and it worked fine.
I see a number of other people are having a similar problem and I have followed all of the troubleshooting advice I can find, but nothing is working. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
This is what I have tried:
1. Leaving the card in the camera and attaching the camera via USB cable to the laptop: same result, noise, but can't access the card.
2. Trying to reassign the drive letter through storage controller: it shows the card but if you right click it to assign it a drive letter it says the 'file is missing'.
3. Downloaded the Win8.1 x64 driver from Lenovo website and installed. This stopped the card being recognised at all.
4. Installed the Win8 xc4 driver: this got me back to the noise but no action stage.
5. Updated Windows.
6. Uninstalled and reinstalled the driver numerous times both with the card inserted and without it and with restarting the computer after unistall and after reinstall.
7. Ran Ubunutu from a live USB: This allowed me to see the card and copy its contents to the laptop's HDD.
So it seems to be some incompatibility between the Lenovo drivers and Win8.1. Potentially it's to do with the USB drivers rather than the card reader drivers as the result when using the USB cable and the camera was the same as putting the card in the card reader. Is there a way to update these?
Any other troubleshooting steps I could take?
Thanks.

What size are the cards?
Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

Media Card Reader does not work on W541 (is O2Micro, not the RealTek)

Can not read an SD card on my W541. It reads fine on a W530. Reviewed the ReadMe, and tried to find the driver in the WIndows "Device Manager" but no luck.Experimented and found that if I did the following:Brought up Device ManagerUnder "View" menu, chose "Devices by Type" (this should really be in the instructions, although perhaps not necessary).Under "Action" menu, chose "Scan for hardware changes"found that the node labelled "Storage Controller" finally appeared (towards the bottom, just above "Storage Volumes") There was one entry under the node, that of "ByHubTech/O2Micr Integrated MMC/SD controller". The icon preceding this entry had a yellow triangle, so at least the system detected something was wrong. Right clicked on the entry and chose "Properties" and resulting dialog had the following text in the "Device Status" area (on the "General" tab): This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use.
(Code 12)
If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system. I have no idea what "resources" are being referred to in the message (a case of "I've got a secret"?), so it is a little hard for me to understand what other devices I might want to free up. Bios is version 2.20The "BayHubTEch/O2Micro Integrated MMC/SD controller" driver version is 2.2.2.1057 (which is the latest as of 6/26/2015).Runnin Win 7 Enterprise + SP1, 32GB RAM.

Hello,
I don't have a W541 myself, but here are a few things to check, in no particular order:
Have you checked with your IT department? Maybe they set a poilicy to disable the card reader.
Is the card reader correctly enabled in the UEFI firmware?
Have you run ThinkVantage System Update and Microsoft Update to confirm all of the various Lenovo and Microsoft updates are installed?
Do you still have the OS image the device originally shipped with? If so, does the card reader work under that?

Aryeh Goretsky
