Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga S1 - TS failure

Hi,
Finally got PXE to work from the ethernet dongle while installing image from SCCM 2012 R2. However another problem has appeared.......
As the Task Sequence runs it fails at the "Joining Domain" task Apply Network Settings.
I have confimred that The USB Ethernet Dongle driver is installe don the Boot image and is part of the driver package.
i Also noticed that there are no LED lights illuminating when donge is active? Is this normal?
Thanks

I think there is only two options it either comes with the pen or it doesn't. The one that doesn't have the pen built into it doesn't support the pen because of the panel used. That is waht I remember when I was researching into this unit.

  • Genuine Lenovo Battery Not Attached, Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga

    I am having a message that says "Genuine Lenovo Battery Not Attached" message that appears after Windows 8.1 starts up. A similar sort of message appears before even Windows boots up, and I need to press the 'Esc' key in order for Windows to boot. This seems to have happened after a recent Windows update. I have uninstalled an reinstalled the Lenovo Power Management Driver but it does not appear to have fixed the issue. My BIOS is the latest version.
    This issue is on my Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S1.
    Any assistance is appreciated.

    Reset simply does a circuit discharge, it doesn't wipe anything off your hdd.

  • Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga OS Upgrading

    Hi All,
                 I have a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga laptop, Model no is 20CDA016HH. In this windows 8 Home edition is already installed. My doubt is that, can I upgrade the windows 8 Home Edition to Windows 8.1 Pro Edition. What should I do for that.
    Advance thanks for you kind support.
    Regards,

    There should be an installer somewhere on your computer - look for a file called "iTunesSetup.exe" (32-bit) or "iTunes6464Setup.exe" (64-bit) - you'll almost certainly have got the second of these on a Windows 8 machine.  Then double-click on this file to install iTunes.  If you can't find the files, the direct links are here:
    iTunes 12.1.1.4 (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe
    iTunes 12.1.1.4  (64-bit) - itunes6464setup.exe
    iTunes 12.1.1.4  (64-bit "for older video cards") - iTunes64Setup.exe
    The last of these is an alternative installer for 64-bit systems you find that using the "standard" 64-bit version causes playback issues or problems with QuickTime or Outlook integration.

  • Spare Stylus to Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga

    Hi Guys
    I am using my new Thinkpad Yoga and I am happy so far.
    Unfortunately I lost my pen/stylus a few days ago and of course, the tablet/ultrabook is useless or just a normal notebook without a stylus.
    However, I failed to find a spare-stylus which fits in the case. Could you direct me to a webshop or something were I can buy one?
    And, as it is related to this topic, do you know any other stylus which work with this tablet? The original one is fine but to work all day long with the normal stylus it is a bit to small / thin.
    Best regards

    Other Wacom based tablet PC styluses should work but you might have to recalibrate the digitizer though.
    You can check out the Wacom styluses that Fujitsu , Lenovo ,  and Samsung offer. Those all should work.

    As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with Google Chrome application on your ThinkPad Yoga S240.
    Uninstall Google Chrome browser from your system, delete the entire chrome folder and run the register cleaner and reboot the system. After restarting download and install the Google chrome with latest version and check if the issue resolved.
    Hope this helps.

  • Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga Camera problem

    Hi all, I had my screen replaced under warranty a few months ago due to the retention problem, after I got it back I noticed the webcam wasn't working I didn't put much thought into it and thought i had to update drivers since it had been replaced. Now I have come to get to the bottom of the problem and realised its looking like a hardware problem as windows reports the camera is not connected in device manager and no tricks seem to get it working. Looking at other posts it seems that it may be an issue withe folding design of the yoga putting stress on the connecting cables. Either that or it was not re-connected properly during the warranty repair which seems to make more sense..... Unfortunately my warranty has now expired (a couple of months) so it leaves me in a terrible predicament, does anyone have any ideas or anyone from Lenovo able to help me?  Thanks Steve

    Looking at the webcam area now I think they have forgotten to put a webcam back in! has anybody got a close up picture of the webcam "hole" I can compare as it looks like there is either nothing there or the lens is like a pinhole........

  • Thinkpad Yoga 13 keyboard and mousepad don't work

    Hello people! 
    Last time I went  to US, I've bought this machine from Amazon: Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga Signature Edition - 12.5" 2-in-1 Touchscreen Notebook PC - Intel i5 Haswell / 8GB RAM / 128GB SSD / WiFi / Webcam / Windows 8.1 - Black
    I love it! At least until two weeks ago... after a windows/lenovo update things starts to be really hard.
    My keyboard and mousepad simple don't work anymore, totally unresponsive. If I hit "del" to access the bios, the keyboard does work, after that, when windows is loading and fully loaded, I've got only the "tablet" mode. 
    The only thing that works correctly is the touchscreen, as it only recognize itself as a tablet, not as a ultrabook. The screen also rotates automatacly when windows is fully loaded, so I have to use the tent mode with an external usb keyboard/mouse or type in the screen keyboard...
    I leave in Brazil, got in contact with lenovo suport team here, after a lot of procedures, that didn't solve the problem, they told me to get in contact with lenovo US and ask for an original dvd recovery.
    Is there anyone with a different approach to solve this problem?

    First try SMC and PRAM resets:

    If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free diagnosis.

  • Thinkpad Yoga Charging Indicator

    Hello,
    where can I find the charging indicator on the Thinkpad Yoga? When I'm charging the machine (turned off) I don't see any light or other charging indicator. Is this normal?
    Thanks
    Regards
    Rango

    Hi Rango,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I’m sorry to inform you that Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga doesn’t have a dedicated indicator for charging status.
    The illuminated dots in the ThinkPad logo on the outer lid of your computer and on the palm rest show the system status of your computer:
    • Blinks for three times: The computer is initially connected to the power.
    • On: The computer is on (in normal mode).
    • Off: The computer is off or in hibernation mode.
    • Blinks fast: The computer is entering sleep or hibernation mode.
    • Blinks slowly: The computer is in sleep mode.
    Hope this clarified your query!
    Best regards,
    Mithun.

  • Thinkpad Yoga - ghosting / after-image / watermark issue

    Admin Note: This thread has been reorganized for escalation purpose -  using ajpot's info for escalation since he was the first to respond to my request of collecting information.
    I've got the ghosting issue on my yoga as well.  It was OK for the first few weeks (no noticeable ghosting at all) but now it only takes around a minute of having something on screen for ghosting to appear when switching to something else.
    I'm in the process of sending my yoga in for repair as I'm experiencing some other issues, so I've asked them to repair the screen as well.  From what I've read, it's likely they won't be able to fix it (in which case I'll be asking for a refund) but I'll see how it goes.
    Machine: ThinKPad Yoga
    Machine Type Model: 20CD-CT01WW
    Date manufactured: 3rd December 2013
     

    As amirvf mentioned this is a common issue and there is an active discussion about it over at http://forum.notebookreview.com/lenovo/731068-lenovo-thinkpad-yoga.html Here is a quick recap:TPY uses a 12.5" LG Philips panel that has really, REALLY bad case of image retention (ghosting)The ghosting is not permanent and is actually specific to the way LCD panels work and present on all panels, but usually it's so minor that it is not noticeable to the naked eye. In case of those LG Philips panels, however, the effect is VERY noticeable.Lenovo has a page explaining the general issue: http://support.lenovo.com/de_DE/detail.page?DocID=HT051485The easiest way to check for this is via http://www.marco.org/rmbp-irtest.html (this is a test that was made for MBPro that had ghosting issues, but it works great for testing TPY too)The same panel is used in Dell XPS 12 and there is a long thread on Dell forums complaining about the issue: http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3518/t/19497269.aspxThe problem is inherent to the process/chemistry used in the panels and cannot be solved via software/driver update. (Although some support representatives will direct you to partial solutions that flash different colors and can alleviate the issue but only marginally). To fix this issue panel manufacturer (LG Philips) would have to modify it's tech process and a replacement panel would have to be installed.The bad news are that currently there is no solution (AFAIK). They can swap your panels to your heart's delight, but currently there are not panels available that do not exhibit the issue (You should note, however, that the issue is usually less pronounced on a new panel and is gradually amplified over a course of first several weeks, so if you have on-site support and if you/Lenovo are willing, you could theoretically swap your panels every two weeks or so to approximate a real solution). Also note that the market for 12.5" panels is relatively small and there is no real competition, so there is no strong incentive for LG Philips to fix anything (XPS 12 has been suffering from this for over a year now, even through a model refresh)The good news are that Dell has finally acknowledged the issue and are saying that LG Philips has fixed the panels and new batch is coming around February, plus some people have reported that their newly bought XPS 12 does not exhibit ghosting. So, assuming this is indeed so, new panels should trickle down to TPY owners too sometimes. I'd love to see an official acknowledgement/response from Mark on this... 

  • Thinkpad Yoga w/ active digitizer

    I've read that the 20cd0032us and 33us Thinkpad Yoga models are the only ones without an active digitizer.  However, this appears to be all that is for sale on Amazon and other places.  Any idea of where you can but a Thinkpad Yoga with an active digitizer??

    I recently acquired a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga, fully loaded except for one thing.
    I was told this unit was refurbished but actually had the active digitizer technology in it. Once the device arrived it had no pen and the slot where the pen is seems to be sealed shut, I attempted to check device manager and was greated with this:
    http://imgur.com/oJ7ChKR
    So i went to best buy to test a Wacom Pen on it
    It would register single "click" like presses, but it was choppy and dotted when drawing.
    Tried drawing a 5 inch line. It wouldn't form solid, it was just a point every inch after a solid stroke
    Since it registered input does it mean it's gonna work and just has to be calibrated or?
    I only bought this laptop because I needed to be able to do graphic design on the go so it is worthless if it doesnt have the technology.
    Please help, a very frustrated user.

  • Thinkpad Yoga 14 PCI-Datensammlungs- und Signalverarbeitungscontroller

    Hi Leute
    Ich habe mein Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 14 vollstaendig neu aufgesetzt und obwohl ich alle Treiber von System Update installiert habe, erscheinen im GeraeteManager immer noch "PCI-Datensammlungs- und Signalverarbeitungscontroller" und SM-Bus-Controller..
    Welche Treiber fehlen mir da noch, und wo finde ich die?
    Desweiteren meine ich mich zu erinnern, dass urspruenglich bei den Energieoptionen noch anstelle von Ausbalanciert die Lenovo-optimierte Version existierte? Wo kann man die herunterladen? Oder nuetzt dies der Lebensdauer des Akkus nicht wirklich?
    Vielen Dank im Voraus

    Interessant...

  • Thinkpad Yoga BIOS Update Problem after installing Windows 10

    Hi all, I've been reading tonnes of threads here trying to solve my problems (which seem to keep getting worse) to no avail. I'm reaching out to anyone that can suggest some help before I end up bricking my yoga by accident or running it over on purpose. I'll give you a timeline of the events. The machine in question is a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 12.5" 20CD-0032USIntel Core i5 4200U 1.60GHz Processor4GB Ram128GB SSDWindows 8.1 64 Bit preloaded (recently upgraded to Windows 10) So the saga begun just a short two days ago. I had some spare time at home and decided to download and install my free upgrade to Windows 10. I backed up all of my important documents etc to OneDrive as I intended on performing a clean install. Said clean install went flawlessly with Windows 10 installing the first time with no issues or errors. Since I had performed a clean install, all my previous apps, including the stock Lenovo apps, had been deleted. I had anticipated this and only really desired to reinstall the app that automatically adjusts the screen orientation when folding the cover back. So in an effort to find this app and any Windows 10 related updates that may be available I went to support.lenovo.com and used the handy Lenovo Bridge app to automatically detect my hardware and suggest relevant updates. While combing through the suggested software I noticed a BIOS update that noted added support for Windows 10. How great, I thought, that Lenovo would have a BIOS update ready so quickly once 10 became ready for mass consumption. I went ahead and downloaded the exe version (not the bootable CD due to the lack of CD drive on the Yoga) and ran the BIOS update. As I ran the update the laptop was plugged in, and no errors were presented, a success message appeared and indicated a reboot was necessary, after a couple seconds the system rebooted itself. Enter nightmare level 1. As soon as the system rebooted, I fired up IE about to look for more updates and......BSOD stating that there was and issue with a driver, after another reboot BSOD again with a completely different file name stating driver file missing or corrupt. Sorry I didn't write any of the file names or errors down. At this point I'm thinking that something is not jiving here between the BIOS and OS. So I tried running repair, and recovery and each time I would end up with a BSOD of some design. It was at this point I made a USB with the Windows 10 x64 ISO from Microsoft in an attempt to run the repair utilities from the USB. Again to no avail. Enter nightmare level 2 After attempting multiple tries at recovering Windows 10 and getting multiple BSOD's through the process I decided to use my Windows 10 USB to simply reformat my hard drive to eliminate any traces of my now apparently corrupt OS and do a fresh install of Windows 10. This appears to have been a significant error on my part. Now I have no OS (BIOS is still intact so at least I think I have a not-bricked motherboard) and everytime I try to boot Windows 10, or 8.1 for that matter, from a brand new USB stick I get constant BSOD's.Sometimes I get as far as the Preparing installation files 22% but am interrupted by a BSOD error at some point. So I am pleading for some help here. To me it seems like the BIOS update was the issue. I was not smart enough to have checked the BIOS version before updating so that I would know what to roll back to safely. What would you all recommend for a rollback and how do I go about doing one with no OS on the machine. I know I'm asking for a tl;dr here but appreciate any advice offered. I really dont want to get to nightmare level 3, which I guess would be a bricked laptop and a bill for a new motherboard or laptop. The BIOS I currently have is GQET45WW (1.25) -Garrett  

    Thanks for the reply ColonelONeill, It turns out that Lenovo uses an obscure PERL disk image called "eltorito". As such the directions in the link you provided did not work as most common tools (WinZip, 7zip, and WinRAR) cannot extract the image file from an eltorito iso file.  I instead just bucked up for a $50.00 Asus USB CD drive and burned the iso for version 1.25 and 1.24 onto discs. I then disabled the setting in the BIOS that prevents rolling back to a previous version and flashed to 1.24 from the disc. While this appeared to go successfully, as soon as I tried to boot from my Windows 8.1 CD I start receiving BSOD's again during installation. I then used the CD with 1.25 to go back to where I was in case it was simply a bad BIOS update at the time. Most of the BSOD's are driver related (qlfcoei.sys) which I don't understand since there is no OS other than what is on the bootable CD (or USB I've tried both) Is there anyone with a stable install of Win 8.1 x64 or 10 x64 running on a 20CD0032US that can tell me what version of BIOS they are running? My next step is to go back to a version that someone else can verify is working. Thanks again for any help.

  • So curious about the digitiser thinkpad yoga

    Hey so for about a month now Ive been obsessed with these laptop hybryds specifically with the digitizers and pressure sensativity. As I do lots of digital drawing and arty stuff on the computer, the idea of being able to carry around something like that at such an affordable cost really excites me.
    So after doing lots of research on the subject I found that the most popular and known seemed to be the microsoft durface pro, and obviously I was skeptical about the whole n trig thing but so many reviews stressed that there was little difference between them and wacom so I decided to buy the surface pro 3.
    I was dissapointed with the stylus, I found that my galaxy note works so much nicer and their technology come from wacom.
    I sent it back after a few days as I realised it was for me, the thinkpad yoga I have recently ordered fromt the states at a really good price for the 8gb i7 model with the pen and diitaser.
    Im wondering if anyone knows many artists who use this device for drawing or photoshop? Im going to be studying animation later this year so Im hoping everything works okay, there isnt all that much information about it that I can find compared to the surface pro 3.. Im really exited about it anyway.
    Does anyone know how lenovos thinkpad yoga usibility for their wacom digitser compares to samsungs with their galaxy note line? thanks

    Since posting this question, I did a couple tests.
    It appears (not sure why) that the motion scaling effect loses some detail at times. I had written a sentence using quotes. For some reason, the quotes were partially cutoff on the screen when scaling with the Motion Tab, but did appear when using the Distance or X Scale function under the Controls Tab.
    Distance and X Scale it will be.
    Curious.
