Ideapad U410 touch battery issue

To whom so ever it concerns,
When I bought this laptop , which I love the feel and everything. But I was promised upto 9 hrs of battery life, this was one reason I considered to buy the laptop. Its been 4 days now my laptop hardly gives 4 hrs.
I feel like I have been cheated by Lenovo. Please guide me through, I want to change the laptop

Pratik,
Welcome to the forum!
Sorry to hear that you are not getting as much run time on your system as you expect.
Before you return, I would check some of your settings...
In regard to battery run time... this can vary based on power settings. I would make sure that you are running the Lenovo preload (and didn't just reload windows) and that you are using the energy manager program and have a balanced or energy saving mode selected. Use of hard disk, wifi, and keeping the display turned to higher brightness levels will use more battery as will more demanding applications (games, graphics, etc).
If you check all these things and start with a full battery charge and are still not happy with the results, I would check with the place of purchase and perhaps work out a refund / exchange there.
Best regards,
Mark

Is the 15,4" MBP graphics issue fixed? (9600M)

Hi!
Is the graphics issue with the 9600M card fixed on the Macbook Pro 15,4"'s that are being sold now?
I'm planning on upgrading from a white macbook 2,1 (with Intel GMA950 graphics) to get better graphics and a bigger screen, but I don't want it to break down due to some hardware error.
Thanks

Apple say the problem machines were produced between approximately May 2007 and September 2008 and that newer models are OK ...

Is the iPad 2 light bleeding issue fixed yet?

Did Apple finally fix the issue of light bleeding from under the bezel or are defective iPad 2s
still being sold?
Anybody knows?
Regards

Hey everyone,
Just purchased my iPad 2 yesterday from the Apple Store in Birmingham. It was the last one left in the store so you can imagine how happy I was to get one finally! However I have also noticed mine is suffering from this backlight bleeding problem, in quite a few spots around the screen. I also have either a couple of dead pixels or a large piece of dust stuck under the glass in the middle of the screen, which is equally annoying. Will Apple exchange this for me? Should I ring up the nearest Apple store and see what they'll do? I love this device and just wanna get on and use it, but for the money I'm paying I don't think I should put up with defects. What's everyone's advice?

Alt codes on ideapad u410

How do I do alt codes on the ideapad u410?

Thanks, ishaan.
I hadn't seen your post, nor the knowledgebase article.
It works on my Yoga13, yet it's a little awkward to hold down the Alt key on the physical keyboard while tapping the on-screen keypad's numbers to achieve special characters... unless I'm missing some kind of an "Alt lock" function for the on-screen keyboard. In any case, it's certainly better than no capability at all.
Cheers.

IdeaPad U410

I was thinking of buy the IdeaPad U410, because every one of the specs were good to me, but when I went down the specs list, I noticed that it said "No Optical Drive"
Does that mean that it doesn't come with an DVD/CD optical drive?
Or does that simply mean that I cannot install an optical drive into the computer?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi Hero1237394,
The "No Optical Drive" means there's no CD/DVD slot where you can insert a dvd drive as the IdeaPad U410 uses a slim and compact design.
Screenshots:
Spoiler (Highlight to read)
If you need to read or burn DVD's, you can opt to get a a USB ODD drive.

Ideapad U410 not working in Normal Mode

Hi,
My Lenovo Ideapad U410 has suddenly stopped working in normal mode. If I need to open a link or an important document, I open it in a safe mode.
Has anyone faced a similar kind of issue? I don't want to format the system as i would first like to know the root cause. The laptop is within a warranty period however Ideapads don't have an international warramty i guess.
Any help would be appreciable.
Thanks,
Akanksha

This is cause by some conflict/defective in the installed drivers. Try doing the procedure describe in this link. It also described on how to determine which is causing the problem.

Lenovo Ideapad U410: part of screen is white

I have a Lenovo Ideapad U410 and the left part of my screen is uniformly white after turning on the laptop. It's a rectangle about 1 inch long, from top of the screen to the bottom.
I got this suddenly pretty much a month after buying the laptop (it appeared suddenly and I didn't do anything to cause it), and then the area of the white rectangle got bigger after I mistakenly dropped my laptop yesterday.
Would buying a new screen and installing it fix this, or could the problems be more besides the screen?
And is this covered by limited warranty?
Thanks.

Hi Dsav6,
As per your concern, I would suggest you to please re-install the graphics driver of your system from the below mentioned web link.
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&DocID=HT073650
Afterwards, please restart the system and check if the issue still persists then it needs a personal assistance and it will be covered under warranty.

Sameer

Ideapad U410 windows 8. one button recovery

HI,
I've a IdeaPad U410 that ships with Win 7 and a cool little feature called one button recovery.
The idea is that when the pc is off, you can hit this button and invoke the recovery partition to reload win 7.
Having update the PC to Win 8, I would liek to setup the same operation but with win 8.
Has anyone been succesful with this, how'd you do it?
I see to steps:
Setup a Win 8 Recovery partition, which looks harder than it sounds.
Tell the pc to look at it for the one click recovery.
Over to the Lenovo masses, your thoughts are most welcome.
Stan

Hi Stan,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to inform you that after upgrading the OS (Operating System) from Windows 7 to Windows 8, OKR (One Key Recovery) partition will lose its path with the Software and cannot create the recovery partition for Windows 8 and OKR button will not work as expected.
Do post us back for further queries.
Best Regards
Shiva Kumar

Hi SreeArjun,
Welcome to the Forums
As per the query we understood that you are unable to boot the system in your Lenovo U410 laptop.
Remove the hard drive and try to boot the system into BIOS and check if any error occurs? Also insert the hard drive and check what happens after installing the HDD.
Best regards,

Ideapad U410 Refurb from outlet - "Battery is not detected"

Hey everyone,
I recently purchased a refurbished Ideapad U410 touch from the lenovo outlet website and received it a few days ago. I charged the laptop and it says "battery is not detected" in the notification area. Once I unplug the charger, the laptop will instantly shut off and can't be used unless there is a charger connected. From what I understand, the battery can be missing, wires disconnected or faulty, or the battery is completely dead. Since I purchased it just over a week ago, I have a 21 day full warranty and another limited 1 year warranty on top of that.
I've contacted lenovo support over the phone and have been redirected in circles over 5 times without being able to get a replacement or ship it back. I don't want to remove the bottom cover either since that will void my warranty. Can someone please help me out with a direct number or who to contact? I've been told Post Sales Support is the correct department but I can't seem to ever reach it....
Thanks in advance,
Mitchell

hi mitchillen,

Lenovo Ideapad U410 - no screen output or black screen, and just out of warranty

My kid has been using this laptop and loved it, but mentioned a while ago it was difficult to power it back on after turnned it off. However she managed to work around by putting it in hibernate/sleeping mode only, or recycling the system many times (by holding on power button to force it off). The issue was black screen (no Lenovo logo) but computer was on. I didn't pay much attention because she can still make it work, and I was too busy. Last week, there was a windows update (again) and the computer was forced recycle. It never comes back alive again. The same, computer is humming, but no any visual output on screen, just black. Tried novo button, bootable USB, external monitor, all no use. Check the warranty, just over by 2 months! Asked the service store, to fix will cost at least $200-$300 to replace the motherboard! It does not make sense when spent a bit more could buy a new notebook. But my kid liked it and it does not make sense to throw it away either, when it still looks pretty new and only being used very lightly (schoolwork only). It is sad, especially the brand has been gainning my trust. I probably don't expect a "good" solution either from Lenovo or community, but just throw my frustration here (only because have just registered the account and there is no support email or web form). If Lenovo want to make customer happy, the part shouldn't be so expensive for a short-lived laptop! Just by the way, there are many posts about Ideapad's black screen issue, and many blameed window 8.1 for the compatibility problem. It made me thought so too because the initial sympton was exactly the same. The best thing you should do: don't waste time on fixing the driver or config, get the hardware replaced as soon as you could when still in warranty. If not so lucky, probably think it twice next time when you want to buy a Lenovo.

Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
Sorry to hear of all the problems. Here are a couple of things to try........
First, try a reset of the BIOS. The procedure can be useful in resolving some hardware conflicts which your computer may have. Just do this......
1. Unplug the charger / adapter.
2. Press and hold the Power Button for 15 seconds.
3. Plug in the charger / adapter if needed and power up the system to see if the problem was resolved.
If you are comfortable working inside your laptop. try this........
Try the reset again with the battery removed.
If the reset didn't resolve the problem then you may have a failed piece of hardware preventing the bootup. Remove the battery, hard drive, optical drive, memory, wireless card and bluetooth if it is installed. Now try to power up the stripped laptop. With all the hardware removed you should have lights come on and it may possibly beep since there is no memory installed. If the laptop is showing signs of life start adding hardware one piece at a time starting with a memory module and boot up the laptop. If it doesn't power up try the memory in the other slot. Also try the other memory module separately in both slots if two are available. If it is still showing signs of life add another piece and boot. Do this for each item until it doesn't power up again. The last piece of hardware installed is your problem part.
The link below is for your model's Hardware Maintenance Manual. The manual 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.
http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles_pub/ideapad_u310_u410_hmm_1st_edition_mar_2012_english.pdf
There is also a Lenovo Training video that will show you how to remove the various items. These are listed in the FRU section.

Ideapad U410 no main hard drive, won't turn on after updates.

Hi,
I just imported an Ideapad u410 from the US to the UK. It turned on fine, I started noticing the wifi proglem everyone else are having. No big deal, got a usb wifi adapter laying around I can use. Then I noticed that the hard drive (C, no other harddrive visible) was rediculously small (20-30 some GB, I forgot the exact figure) with almost all of it's space used. I figured this was a partition for the OS and that for whatever reason the rest of the drive wasn't showing. I noticed the windows update icon showing on the shutdown button and figured perhaps setup wasnt complete so I pressed restart. It kept restarting, downloading more updates and restarting, I walked away to have dinner when it proclaimed it would now install update 1 of 96. When I came back the laptop was off. I turned it on to be met by an endless cycle of BSOD during startup followed by a failed startup repair... I guess there wasn't enough space on the C drive for the windows update. What do I do now?
Solved!

What os do you have? The main problem is the one key recovery, so if not interested it should be similar to the ordinary installation if there are no cache ssd installed.

Disable touchpad function keys not working Ideapad u410 Windows 8

Hi there
I'm on the verge of returning my new U410 which, despite reviews indicating the contrary, has a very frustrating touchpad that the palm sensitivity adjustor does not fix. In fact I don't think it adjusts the sensitivity one iota.
So I've read that Fn+F6 or Fn+F8 should allow me to disable it while I'm writing, but they do nothing. I'm working in Microsoft Word, if that matters (it shouldn't though, right?). I'm on Win8, computer is brand new and I installed the latest touchpad driver but must say it never launched or I never saw it launch (I'm not sure it should, or if it should just be in the background).
Between that and the worst wireless problems ever, not to mention that the heavier graphics card apparently does nothing to improve video performance, I am tempted to return this. So frustrating. Please help if you know about the touchpad though, being able to disable it would go a long way!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi bwrightd,
Regarding your concern:
1. If you have the same keyboard layout like in this picture (hotkey mode disabled in the BIOS) then you just need to press the key below to enable/disable the touchpad.
Alternatively, you can also use Touchfreeze to automatically disable the Touchpad while typing.
2. For the wireless issue, you may wanna check this thread as other users found it helpful to resolve the issue.
3. For the video performance, try the following:
    a. Set the power settings to high performance (Link to picture)
    b. Configure Nvidia Control Panel's "Power management mode" from Adaptive to Maximum Performance - see this guide
    c. Follow this guide on how to add an app to use with the Nvidia Optimus Technology.
Hope this helps
