Lenovo S856 ROM backup

Please let me know how to backup system ROM in Lenovo S856 ?

Hi,
well, there are many people, that like the RnR applicaiton, and many people, that like Windows backup solution, or other 3rd party applications.
So first of all you need to think if you have really importatnt files on your system and which option would be the best for you.
I would start with MSN to read about the options in Windows backup solution and then I would go to RnR Deployment guide.
Because these files and information rely on multiple web-bages and there is a lot to read. i would like to summarize shortly how it is from my perspective:
RnR:
- application using which you can configurre the backup to be stored on multiple places, while making other places, like USB HDD bootable in case you need to restore your system and the OS no longer bootable. Also RnR is a big tool, that contains many options.
The minus by RnR is the speed and in ase you don't go through the basic manula of RnR, then you might be execting things from this application, the it cannot give to you.
Windows backup solution:
The most positive about this is the speed. It can backup your system in much shorter time, then RnR, or some other Backup solutions. However, this is Microsoft and this does not offer you that many options like RnR or any other backup solution.
This is really just briefly, and I hope, that someone else will post here are some other comments, so that you can decide.
Feel free to ask any specific questions. I'll try to answer them.
Cheers

Using Lenovo's Enhanced Backup & Restore Questions

Hi all,
I am wondering if anyone has any experience in using Lenovo's Enhanced Backup & Restore.
My situation is that I am thinking of updating the firmware on my MyDigitalSSD 128GB mSATA SSD to the latest version. However, from what I read, the update will wipe the mSATA SSD. Also, at the moment, I have been backing up my C:\ to an external HDD weekly using Lenovo's Enhanced Backup & Restore software.
My question is if my steps below are workable and if the Enhanced Backup & Restore program will restore my system back to the latest backup?
1. Use Enhanced Backup & Restore program to backup the latest image of my system.
2. Update firmware on my mSATA SSD. All data will be wiped.
3. Use my Recovery Discs to restore the mSATA SSD to Lenovo's factory image.
4. Use Enhanced Backup & Restore program to restore the latest image.
Any comments, anyone? Thanks in advance!

You can only restore to the same hub, as the serial numbers have to match.

Lenovo EZ Media & Backup Center and SRT subtitle

When playing movies using the built in DLNA feature, will it be compatible with srt (or any other kind) subtitle?
In other words, if I store a movie with any kind of subtitle inside Lenovo EZ Media & Backup Center, and use a smart tv to play this movie by DLNA, will the subtitles be played?

Hello all,
When adding new .srt files to the Lifeline device running twonky, please be sure that the file name matches the video's file name except for the extension.
If the subtitles are not detected, try running a Twonky database repair from the lifeline web interface
(All Features> Media Server > Settings > "Repair Database") This is mentioned in past official twonky release notes for .srt files.

OTA Update failed for Lenovo S856

I opted to install the OTA Update which is shown to be available. After downlaoding about 75MB of data, the phone gets restarted, the Android OS Upgrading screen comes, and then an error message apears. I only have the option to restart the device. Once restarting, the launcher is loaded and OTA Update Failed to Install message comes. Is there any solution to get rid of this problem? And is Lollipop 5.1 Update coming to Lenovo S856? Thanks in advance.. Any support is welcome!

does anybody know what is the correct and current firmware

Lenovo Solution Center Backup alert problems

LSC 2.0.020 is alerting me that my last backup was on 05 January 2013. In fact my last backup was on 1st May which Rescue And Recovery 4.50.0025.00 displays as 01/05/2013. R&R is showing the date in US format and presumably miscommunicating it to LSC. I am in the UK and my Win7 regional settings are correct for the UK locale.
R&R should either respect the Windows regional setting or use the international standard date format.

Did it say you have not enough disk space, for backup, and offered a link?
I cant comment. Sames issues Since Feb 2012 when Pc-doctor was dumped. It you dont like the fun software, uninstall it.

The EZ media only officially supports 2TB USB. If you want to be on the safe side you may want to exchange it.

How do I backup without an external hard drive?

Well, the first time I asked this question it was deleted as a "rant."
Seriously, how do I backup my iTunes library without an external hard drive? My HD is hanging on for dear life and I've been trying to backup my library. For years, I just used the DVD ROM backup incrementally and it worked well. iTunes 10.xxx decided to delete that option and I'm hosed.
So, how do I backup my library, purchases and apps (without dropping $100 for an external hard drive)?
Secondly, how do I restore my backup DVDs?

Press the eject key, or open a program like iTunes and eject it, or drag the desktop icon to the trash.

Which backup solution to use?

I didn't see anything here, but only looked a few screens deep, so sorry if this comes up a lot.
I just found out from reading here that I was running BOTH the Windows backup AND the Lenovo R&R backup. Nowhere does the computer warn about this (something that should be fixed, IMO).
I deleted all the R&R backups and recovered almost 60GB of disk space.
Can someone provide a link or an explaination as to which service is "better", or at least a comparison. From reading, it seems it is recommended to only run one of them. I saw one post which said R&R was better at recovering, etc, but I see other posts which says it just fails (for that person)...
I have a 142gb drive (reported size for C Thinkpad T61p purchased in Dec 2007, running Vista Ultimate with SP1
Thanks.

Hi ,
We have Oracle 8i DB running on Windows with Backup using CA client.
We are planning to migrate all backups from CA to Netbackup but since Oracle 8i is no longer supported by Netbackup so we need to use either RMAN or User managed backup .
Can somebody guide,which backup solution to use on Oracle 8i (we will migrate DB to MS-SQL) so this will be temporary solution for DB backup.
1) shutdown IMMEDIATE
2) OS file copy all the files
3) STARTUP

IPhoto imports from CD ROM

I know that one can import an entire library from a CD ROM backup disk, but that involves hundreds of pictures. Is there a way to import only selected pictures from a CD ROM backup disk?

Hi jtietz,
Was this disc burned within iPhoto and mount within
iPhoto in the source column?
If it does, then just select the photos from the
disc and drag them to the library listed at the top
of the source column.
Thanks; that does the trick.

Backup issues - New T510 running Windows 7 Professional (64-bit)

I am running Windows 7 Professional (64 bit) on Lenovo T510 (4313-CTO). As soon as I loaded some applications and transferred data from my old computer to “My Documents” in the “C” partition of the T510 I immediately began having space issues with automatic backup. I received the following alert:
Low Disk Space.
You are running out of disk space on Lenovo_Recovery (Q
Click here to see if you can free space on this drive.
The "Q" partition was pre-set by Lenovo at 9.76 GB. I have not tried to change it (yet).
I set the backup options to “Keep only the latest system image and minimize space used by backup.” Note that I viewed backups and it lists only one backup image on the “Q” partition (given the warning message, perhaps even that is only a partial image).
Properties for the “Q” partition indicate
Used space: 10,476,949,504 bytes 9.75 GB
Free space: 8,806,400 bytes 8.39 MB
Capacity 10,485,755,904 bytes 9.76 GB
What do I do at this point to complete a backup?
If relevant to your suggestions, here are some specific questions about solving the problem:
How can I manage backups to the “Q” partition given the space issue – i.e., do I need to reallocate partitions on the hard drive to create a larger “Q” partition, or are there other options?
Related to my first question, can I create sufficient backup space without reformatting the hard drive and destroying content on the “C” partition?
Would the better choice be to use DVD media for backup – since using the “Q” partition on the same hard drive leaves it vulnerable to failing at the same time as the “C” partition?
Any other ideas?
Thanks, in advance, to all who are able to respond. Peace … E

Thanks Nap.
To Nap and others
Got it on back-up. I did not initiate a backup but assumed that the error messages that I am receiving were caused by a Lenovo auto-initiated backup. What can I do to elminate the error messages I am receiving (see my prior post).

[Q]Problem with Bluetooth connection between Xiaomi Mi Band and Lenovo P780.

Hello,
I bought Mi Band to my Lenovo P780 and I have connection problem. I have paired both devices and everything works well but 10-20 times a day connection is lost. And after I open Mi Fit, app try to connect with phone and do a sync but it can't (long time: "Connecting... Getting info from your band" and after: "Couldn't connect, pull down to retry."). Only after turning Bluetooth off/on app can connect to phone and do syncing. This is very annoying. Always after night the connection between Mi Band and phone is broken. What can I do about this problem? I need have a real-time notifications on Mi Band so I need have stable connection between phone and band all the time.
I have Lenovo P780 on 4.4.3 and Xiaomi Mi Band on firmware 1.0.9.0 + Tweaked Mi Fit with notify 1.2.922. But I tried also previous versions of Mi Fit - always the same result. And I tried on Nexus5 rom final, official Lenovo KK rom vibe, Alice Project 7.5 and Alice Project 8.0 roms - always the same result.
I tried on 2 other phones and bracelete isn’t broken. Everything is ok – stable connection.
Problem is in Lenovo. What should I do?
Thank you very much.

I have a better experience as my microsoft sculpt touch mouse now works fine - before it was always disconnecting.
Otherwise I have noticed the following with this new update:
- you have to update the bios version too to maximise the improvement
- regarding the special settings of my card, and after lots of test, my best setting is :
Antenna diversity type : 3 (before upgrade of bios, i had no wifi with 3 as value) - it seems it gaves me a slight enhancement
Bandwith: 20_40
Selective suspend : enabled (disabled doesn't change anything)
Selective suspend timeout: 30 (more doesn't change)
Wifi-config: wifi (that's the real trick, if set to Performance, the drop in performance is impressive)
in the meanwhile i was typing that i experienced a slight bluetooth connexion drop... less than before, but it's not totally fixed.
i think alas that the choice of the wifi card is just very bad. I ordered back in 2008 a profesional Dell laptop with a wifi n 2x2 450Mbits minipci. I expected that in 2012-13, an ultrabook without lan connexion and a ssd would at least provide a 2x2 (dual band) 300 Mbits wifi n... but here it's just the cheapest wifi n single band + bluetooth bundle which has been put. The worst is that's an economy of maybe 20€ which is ridiculous on a >1000€ machine.
Once the guarantee has passed, i think i'll upgrade my machine with a decent minipci wifi card and that's all. At least it seems that the dismounting of the Yoga 13 is quite well documented.

Lenovo EZ cannot factory reset (SOLVED)

Tried to factory reset my Lenovo EZ Media & Backup (HMEZ). When I pull it up now it shows the error:
Lenovo EZ Not Ready Your device is in an inconsistent state because the original drives were replaced. You can either put the original drives back or perform a factory reset to erase all existing data and use the new drives. To perform a factory reset you must first clear the administrator password by pressing the reset button on the back of the device.
Doing this (3x) produces the same result, cannot login to manage the device, only shows this error again.
Any other way to factory reset?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

You were sent an email on 11/11 however we never received an response so I sent it again.
We typically do not offer the imager to out of warranty devices without the customer understanding that we will not be able to support the device and the imager process. If you agree to this and sign the NDA by inserting your name in the agreement in the email, we can offer the imager to you. If the registration group updates your warranty, we will be able to support this.
After we get the reply we can provide a link to the firmware.
The imager should restore the device unless it is a hardware issue.
