Remanufactured Battery from Lenovo Outlet

Hello,
I ordered a remanufactured 6-cell battery from Lenovo Outlet during their promotion period last month. It arrived last Friday. Everything looked fine when I unpacked it.
However, when I checked the ASM (92P1142) and FRU number (42T4777). It looks like that ASM is on the recall list years ago. This battery pack is manufactured by Sony with cycle count of 0. I am concerned of the safety issue and email Lenovo Outlet. They told me to call technical support department. I tried this afternoon and waited for over 20 minutes without any human representative asking my call.
Anybody has similiar experience or can answer my question? TIA.

How long should it take to recharge iPad 2 battery from power outlet?

Presuming you're using the iPad power brick and not an ipod's or other 5W one, 8 hours give or take (i do it overnight so I honestly can't give an exact answwer. ANd it also depends on how low it was when you started.
Do you get a 'not charging' up by the battery meter?

Removing battery from Lenovo Twist S230u laptop?

Hello. I am sending my S230u laptop by air to a Lenovo service station to get its HDD replaced. One of their requirements is to remove the battery from the laptop since it is considered a 'hazardous' material.
Is it actually possible to remove the battery off an S230u? I've been searching online and it appears you can only disable the battery. Any help would be really appreciated.
Thank you for your time.

It appears I don't need to remove the battery after all.

X200 brand new battery: "Genuine Lenovo Battery Not Attached"?

Hi,
I got a new 9-cell x200 battery from lenovo literally a few hours ago, and upon plugging it in Power Manager gives me the dang "Genuine Lenovo Battery Not Attached" message... despite the battery being ordered directly from Lenovo! I've noticed that the cells in this battery are Panasonics instead of the Sanyos I got in my 6-cell included with my x200.
Why is it giving me this message, and how do I disable it (without getting rid of Power Manager)?
(To be honest, I'm more interested in the first question )

You need to find your ThinkPad's machine type / model number. It's printed on a small label on the bottom of the case or inside the battery compartment and looks something like this (the 2668-KHU part):
Use this to look up the specs for that specific model on Lenovo's website using the Quick Path at http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/#

ThinkPad W520: Parts Wrongly Listed in and/or Missing from Lenovo Order Status Page

I ordered a configured ThinkPad W520 off Lenovo.com for USD1500 yesterday. Later when I went back to check my order status, to my surprise some parts were either shown up incorrectly or simply missing.
For example my ThinkPad W520 includes (but not limited to) these parts:
Parts missing from Lenovo Order Status page:
UltraNav with TrackPoint & touchpad
Express Card Slot & 4 in 1 Card Reader
Question: Where are they? Why missing?
Parts shown incorrectly on Lenovo Order Status page:
I've ordered: 15.6" FHD (1920 x 1080) LED Backlit Anti-Glare Display, Mobile Broadband Ready
Lenovo Order Status page shows: SBB 15.6FHD (1900 X 1080) LED
Question: Why 1900 instead of 1920? What gives?
To be on the safe, I tried hard to match each of the parts consisting my ThinkPad W520. So far the above are my concerns. I know many of you are long-time Lenovo patrons. I'd appreciate your patience look through the below complete lists and advise if Lenovo indeed have received my order correctly.

Battery Failure Lenovo U350

Hello,
I have a problem with the battery from my U350, I bought no more than 6 months ago, so i don't think it's matter of time.
Battery is plugged, but not charging (message: connected and not load.) Do not know if the problem is that the battery is completely discharged. With AC it works perfect.
I've try:
- To remove the battery and plug again.
- Turn on without battery and put it then, (When I did this at first didn't recognize the battery)
- Recalibrate
- I read it can be a bios problem, (I do not want to tinker)
I've been searching but didn't get any answer.I will appreciate any suggestions, before taking to technical service.
Thanks

check and flash if new bios update is available butt it sounds like battery issue, so you may need to replace it, contact lenovo support line.

Problem with a new battery for lenovo g530

i've perchased a new Lenovo Battery for my G530 4446-24G laptop and i can't turn on the computer with the battery only and in addition to that when the computer is connected to power i can't turn on the computer unless i unplug the battery from the computer and than after i've turned it on with power , plug the battery back to the computer.
can you help me solve this problem? is this a battery or computer problem?

I have had the very same issue. If I start my G530 up and the battery is installed, it won't start. If I remove the battery and start the laptop using AC power, it starts fine and I can then reinsert the battery and all continues well. In addition, I can shutdown the laptop (with the AC power remaining plugged in and the battery inserted) and it will start up just fine. It's the INITIAL start that requires the battery first be removed. As is obvious, the laptop can't be started up using only the battery (no AC power). The laptop didn't behave this way originally but does so now.

Is there a way of stopping the battery from charging?

Dear Apple Community,
Recently I installed iStat Menus and found that, over the course of this year, my Macbook's charging capacity has dropped 5%. I know this isn't a massive number, but battery performance has become a concern for me. I use my Macbook as a desktop replacement, on the main. It's sitting on a mStand, connected to a large monitor on my desk. I use my Macbook to play games, surf the internet, do work and all that good stuff - basically, I use it for everything. I rarely use the Macbook without it being plugged in. I read on the Apple website that they do not recommend leaving the Macbook on charge permanently and that I should use it on battery at least one a month. As I use my Macbook as a desktop replacement, I don't actually have a lot of opportunity to do this.
My question to you, the community, is: is there a way of stopping the battery from charging, either with the use of an app or a physical device? Ideally, I would love to have my power plugged in BUT only used when the battery drops below 10%. Is this possible with an app?
On the other hand, am I just worrying about nothing? Will my battery be damaged further if I leave the Macbook charging permanently?
Thanks for your help!
Jeremy Reid

Ideally, I would love to have my power plugged in BUT only used when the battery drops below 10%. Is this possible with an app?
The charging characteristics are handled in firmware. There is no app that would be able to do this. You actually would not want to do this anyway. Regularly discharging your battery to 10% will greatly decrease the life of your battery. While it is true that you should not use your system exclusively plugged in, allowing it to run on battery a few hours a week should be fine. Letting the battery regularly run down to (or below) 10% will cause you to use up cycles more quickly than is necessary (thereby reducing the life of your battery). It's really a only a matter of disconnecting your Magsafe connector once in a while.
Leaving it plugged in does not result in it being charged "permanently". It will charge until it is full and then charging will stop. It will only begin recharging when it reaches about 95%.

What to re-install from Lenovo on a Windows 7 64-bit system

Hi,
As we already have volume licences for Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit systems, I made a clean install on my new ThinkPad X201, Type: 3323, Model: 8TG. Now, apart from the rescue image in the special partition that was there when the computer arrived, I would like to have all other "Lenovo features" that were pre-installed with the factory installation that came with the computer.
I have downloaded and installet the ThinkVantage toolbox and ThinkVantage System Update. It seems that Access Connections also is installed and the Power Manager.
However I have also downloaded and installed the Fingerprint Software for Windows 7, 64-bit, but I am not sure where to find it!!!
What else would you recommend that I download and install to make it work like the pre-installed x201 version from Lenovo?
Also I would like to know if I should use Windows 7's system image builder or Lenovo's own version?
And what about the migration tool from Lenovo? Is it better in anyway than Easy File Transfer that came with Windows 7??
Thanks!
Regards,
Dag Wolters

No Service and warranty support from Lenovo in the Service Center for K900... HCL Touch Jalandhar.

I recently bought this phone on 25th day of Octuber 2013. And 17 days earlier while using the phone it suddenly restarted itself then never detects any sim card. After that I checked the sim card, cleaned it with a cloth and reinserted it in the phone but the phone didn't detects it, also tried other sim cards but no sim was detected in the phone. Then I made a call in the Lenovo smartphone customer care and I told them about the problem in the phone and they gave me addresses and numbers of two service centers; first in Chandigarh and second in Jalandhar. Jalandhar was the nearest SC for me, so I visited the authorised Service center of Lenovo in Jalandhar city "Logic Computers C o HCL Care" then I gave the phone to their technician for inspection. After throughly inspecting the phone he announced that the phone's motherboard have to be replaced wih the new MB as the sim card slot is not working. Then they returned my phone and told me that the complaint for this handset is registered with them and I will be called whenever the motherboard reaches the SC. Now its already 16th day from the day I registered the complaint but I didn't received any message or call from the SC; instead I called them twice and they just have one answer that the complaint is under processing in the system and the part is not available in the company. They also told me that it might takes an month or never be repaired as the company is very irresponsible for after sale service support. Sol there's no support and warranty for the Lenovo Smartphones in India. It was my first Lenovo product and it just failed to prove that they worth the cost. If Lenovo Support really exist in India please replace or repair my phone as I had spent Rs 24000 over it. My complaint number is SRIN0701404240002; the complaint is registered by "Vaishnav Anand". Please prove yourself or I will spread all about your Bad Service Support all over the internet and registered a case against you in Consumer Court. Thanks

Yoga S1 Windows 8.1 Activation Disabled and poor (or no support from Lenovo at all).

Dear Lenovo Friends,
I've purchased Thinkpad Yoga S1 with Windows 8.1 onboard.
I've had an OS problem that leaded me to order Recovery DVDs via Lenovo Thinkpad Support in Poland (thanks, got disc set in 7 days).
After reinstallation the WIndows 8.1 OS keeps saying my licence code embedded into BIOS is invalid and I can no longer activate the system. See the event log for sample try and fail on activation my system, please.

I've contacted the Lenovo Support in Poland and they tend to tell that this is because Microsoft has invalidated my codes for unknown reason. Contacting Microsoft they told me that it its vendor's (Lenovo) problem and they are not responsible - shall I obtain new licence key from Lenovo. The Polish Thinkpad support is working on the problem since January the 9th, with no success.
The Windows grace period is already over and I cannot use my ultrabook now without activating the licence.
Is this the famous Thinkpad support quality? I already own 4 Thinkpads and sorry gyus but I'm considering swithing to some other vendor.
When I called them, the solution provided by the Thinkpad support was... "would you please reainstall the OS once more to get another grace period?" I was thinking it was a kind of joke, but it wasn't... Asking for the responsibility of the Lenovo for the Windows OS they provided I was told that Lenovo is not responsible and I was given the advice to buy the hardware with no OS next time, have box licence from Microsoft separatelly.
I'm really disappointed. This is my last Thinkpad I believe. It seems even having the warranty it is not enoug to get support from Lenovo - I'm on my own...

Recovery dvd from Lenovo

How much does a recovery dvd from Lenovo cost and is it different from dvds made thru One Key Recovery? Alos, How do I reinstall windows on a laptop with RapidDrive? thanks

Hi,
Here is a partial answer to your questions, and it is based upon my experiences of about 2 years ago.
My R500 Thinkpad came with a 32 bit version of Windows 7 professional, and I wanted to upgrade to 64 bit, so I ordered the 64 bit recovery DVD's from Lenovo and they charged me $50 at the time.
The DVD's you create with Rescue and Recovery are not the same as the ones you get from Lenovo. They both will create a "factory image" but the content is different.
When you create Rescue and Recovery DVD set, the first one created is a BOOT DISC. That first disc you create can be either be to a DVD or a CD. Either works equally well, although Lenovo hints that the first one should be a CD. I have always used a CD, and recovered systems with no problems.
When you make a set of recovery media using Rescue and Recovery, you do not create an "Operating System CD", and this is normal. When you get a set of recovery CD's/DVD's from Lenovo, you will always get one that is labeled "Operating System CD".
The different sets go through different recovery processes, and Rescue and Recovery needs to know which type of set you have, so it can perform the correct process. It does this by asking the question "Do you have an operating system CD?" Based on the answer it performs one process or the other, and expects different contents on the CD's/DVD's that are presented to it. You cannot mix the DVD's up between the two processes. If you tell Rescue and Recovery that you have an operating system CD (i.e. provided by Lenovo) and present it with media created by you using the "Create Rescue Media" process, the recovery will fail.
I hope this helps.
Unfortunately, I have no experience with RapidDrive.
