Batteries compatible with Nokia E70

Hey
Im looking for batteries compatible with the Nokia E70. The one that comes with the Nokia E70 is dieing and now gives me very low battery life. I want a high capacity one.

There's only one type of battery recommended for Nokia E70 which is BL-6C. This is the only type you should buy. If you use anything other than the recommended battery, it will be at your own risk.
Reference to the battery type can be found under "Power Management" of the tech specs:
http://europe.nokia.com/find-products/devices/nokia-e70/technical-specifications
If your battery was purchased less than 6 months ago and you believe there's an issue with it, you can take the battery and phone to your nearest Nokia Care Center to be checked. Locations of your nearest local repair center can be found under the "Repair & Recycle" link above this page.

Types of batteries compatible with Magic Mouse

Hi There,
Recently I bought a magic mouse, and till now it has been amazing. But as all users, I too face serious battery drain issue with magic mouse, but I think its worth its usage .
So I thought to switch to couple of rechargeable batteries for my magic mouse after reading some threads here. But now I have got a doubt. I read the magic mouse user guide and it says :
+You can use alkaline, lithium, or rechargeable AA batteries in your mouse.+
So My doubt is that whether I can use rechargeable Nickel Cadmium(Ni-Cd) batteries or not? Also what all kind of batteries are compatible with magic mouse?

Hi zulficarr
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you have Nickel Cadmium(Ni-Cd) batteries they will work just fine, however if you shopping for rechargeable's the NiMH batteries are better and last longer.

Also note that the Apple Store sells a Battery Charger with 6 NiMH batteries.

T400 / T410 Compatibility Question

Other than the obvious specification differences, what are the effective differences between the T400 and the T410?
The reason I want to know is that for several years I have been using a T60 at work with a T60 at home. I run the OS from the hard drive bay adapter and simply take the adapter home with me rather than pack up the entire laptop. Using this method I simply boot from the hard drive bay adapter to essentially have my work computer at home.
My work has now assigned me a T400, however these are no longer available on the Lenovo website. The T410 offers more features, however I am not sure if I can boot from the drive used in the T400.
I have already found that trying to boot the T400 from the T60 drive simply does not work. I have been unable to even get into a basic windows setting to change the drivers.
Anybody out there know what I am up against?

Thank you for your response. I would however still like to know what the effective differences are between the T400 and T410 computers is.
I have read over the specifications, however there does not seem to be a significant difference between the models. In reading some of the forum entries, many people seem to have strong opinions regarding one model over another.
In example, the T400 has a dual core processor, and the T410 has a single core. The specs are quite clear, however the information does not really tell me much. In general daily use, which one provides an overall better performance?
Is there any information such as this posted anywhere?

Tecra M5/M9: Are the batteries compatible?

I run both of these models and occasionally get caught out with a flat battery. J
ust wondering if the batteries are interchangeable between the two they appear to have the same shape and output?
Thanks

Well, according to the Toshibas Options & Accessories website the both machines would supports the same battery which is a Battery Pack PA3509U-1BRM.
Tecra M9 supports:
Battery Pack (Li-Ion, 5100mAh, 6 Cell) PA3588U-1BRS
Extended Capacity Battery Pack (Li-Ion, 7050mAh, 9 Cell) PA3509U-1BRM
Tecra M5 supports:
Extended Capacity Battery Pack (Li-Ion, 7050mAh, 9 Cell) PA3509U-1BRM
So as you can see you can use a PA3509U-1BRM battery in both notebooks

Fan Error Lenovo T500 T510 T400 T410 T60 T61 - rejuvinating the fan

I finally got that dreaded "Fan Error" at boot time on my T500. After some research on this board, this is what I have concluded:
1- hit Escape, and the machine will boot. It can do a lot of stuff without a fan turning. Gaming caused it to overheat. Either the processor would slow down (by being intermittant) or you get the black screen of death.
2- It is relatively easy to follow the Hardware Maintenence Manual and remove the fan and heatsink assembly. Once the assembly is removed, pry open the fan, and remove the blades and clean and lubricate the shaft. My fan restarted, and the Fan Error went away. No need to replace the fan.
3- Unfortunately the machine overheats now (black screen of death), even though the fan does operate. I traced this to a too liberal application of the thermal joint compound. Made the compound a very thin film, and that seems to have helped. Also when replacing heat sink assembly and before bolting it, wiggle it while pressing on it so the thermal joint compound spreads itself at the surfaces of contact. This seems to have helped.
Anything else that you may want to add to this thread?

Thanks a lot! It makes sense.
Yes, I have been using the ESC bypass for some time, untill I really could not stand by anymore--the over heating.
I am thinking about manipulating the fan 'manually', if it could pass the booting, very good; if not, it's not completely unacceptable to run a small program@startup along with the work.
Not ready to say bye yet, will keep trying.
Thanks again!
So if you hit ESC, does your fan work normally, or do you overheat? I had the impression that your fan would work normally if you hit ESC.
My fan was always a problem on the T500 (not on my new W540). It was extremely noisy and was constantly on even at no load times. So I opened the laptop and cut one of the 3 wires on the fan (I am sure it is a power wire), and installed a manual switch. So when the thing overheated, I could manually turn the fan on. This worked for about a week and then something gave up, and the fan stopped working altogether. (don't fix something that is not broken!) I had to take the front cover off, and place a PC fan in the top left corner to cool the radiator. This was not as effective as the original fan, but let me do my job. Then the loose switch on this ersatz fan one day accidentallyshorted the fluoroscent backlight PC board of my display and I lost my display backlight! I had to pry open my display and using two 60W bulbs project light to the back of the LCD so I could read the display! This is when I decided to punt and ordered the W540. The fan is quiet and works when it has to work.

T410 and W510 - Charger & batteries compatibility

Hello,
I will try to be as brief as possible, pardon me for my ignorance on this topic.
My T410 is faulty beyond repair and I bought a W510. So I now have a spare AC Adapter and 2 spare batteries for T410. The batteries for T410 is the exact same size and can fit in the W510.
The details:-
T410 AC Adapter
FRU P/N: 42T4425
P/N: 42T4424
90W 20V
Output: 20V 4.5A
T410 6-cell battery
FRU P/N: 42T4791
P/N: 42T4790
NOM 10.8V 5.2Ah 57Wh
PSE 10.8V 4.76Ah
T410 9-cell SLICE battery
FRU P/N: 42T4739
P/N: 42T4740
NOM 11.1V 8.4Ah 94Wh
PSE 11.1V 7.74Ah
W510 AC Adapter
FRU P/N: 45N0053
P/N: 45N0052

FRU P/N: 42T4795
P/N: 42T4794
NOM 10.8V 5.2Ah 57Wh
PSE 10.8V 4.68Ah
With reference to the specs above, my questions are:
1) May I use the T410 6-cell and slice battery on my W510? If so, do I need to use the T410 adapter on my W510?
2) Will I kill my battery or my notebook...
a) ... if I use the T410 adapter on my W510?
b) ... if I use the W510 adapter to charge the T410 batteries slotted on my W510?
I regret for not paying attention in class
Any help appreciated.
omar

seems like you are wasting your time.....Lenovo in their infinite wisdom have decided that you can either use a docking station or a stand, but not both! How ridiculous is that? I'm instead buying T400's that are still in stock (for a great price) and trying to source a docking station and stand from somewhere else as my supplier tells me they dont have any in stock and are unlikely to get more.
I think it is very poor that lenovo have removed this option....why would I want a stand that I coudnt dock with? This is a deal breaker for me, and I will be looking at other brands from now on due to this.

Can anyone confirm this. Thanks.

You need Advanced Mini Dock (FRU 250410U).

T410s - Need advice on Low Level format of Lenovo SSD and reinstall on Win7

I'm new to SSD formatting, and wanted to know if anyone has done a clean install on a Lenovo SSD. I have used DBAN in the past on my HHD based systems, but I've read that SSD's need to be formatted differently. I have a T410s 2901CTO that I want to reconfigure.
I would like to nuke the entire factory 128G SSD, repartition, format and install a clean Win7 OS.
Any help, links, etc, are greatly appreciated

BigBlack,
Actually ThinkPad BIOS prevents issuing the ATA Secure Erase command from software, after POST exits. This is for security reasons. That's why SSD erase can only be done from within BIOS itself. So your link would not work on ThinkPad, to do a Secure Erase on SSD.
T400/T410 generation use this method: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-68369
T420 and later user this method: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS019026
Traditional disk-wiping methods like DBAN aren't optimal for SSDs due to the way that SSD firmware maps writes to NAND in unpredictable ways. So even after a DBAN wipe, your data may still remain on the SSD, and all you've done is generate wear on the drive.

Chronic T400 Hard Drive Failures

Our company has been using Lenovo laptops for five years, depending primarily on the T61/T400/T410 family of laptops. We first purchased T400s in late 2008, and deployed almost 40 of them between 2008 and 2010.
Beginning this spring, we have had a string of catastophic hard drive failures on T400s purchased in 2009. In nearly all of these cases, we end up with a HDD Initialization Error (or similar) that render's the drive unrecoverable, particularly because we use PGP to encrypt the drives. With the PGP encryption, if we cannot access the boot sector of the drive and decrypt the disk, it is impossible to recover any data.
In the past three to five months, I believe that we have had almost ten T400 PCs experience a catastrophic disk failure.
The 2010 cohort of T400s have been more reliable, but perhaps that is because they are younger. I don't believe that any of our T61 machines experienced a disk failure before their 36 month refresh date.
I have heard from another company in our region that they have experienced similar problems with 2009 T400s. Has anyone else experienced this, and more importantly, diagnosed the root cause? Is it heat related, caused by manufacturing defects, or related perhaps to PGP? Although Lenovo is always prompt with disk replacements, the overhead associated with reimaging and risk of data loss is becomming a challenge for us to manage.

i think the OP is referring to multiple T400 as T400s, the T400s was not around in late 2008, it was released in the end of June 2009 if my memory serves me correctly.

Jin Li
