USB Lenovo Miix 2 8

The USB port works fine for charging - but I can't seem to use it for any other USB devices.
If i plug in any USB device nothing happens
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I am using the Miix 2 8 as a desktop. I got this idea from "King of Tweaks" so all the credit goes to him
check out his blog. I'm typing this from my Miix 2 8 with an HP PS-2 keyboard using a ps2 to usb adapter
I started out using a powered hub without the power adapter but have found a nice non-powered usb3.0 hub.
In that I plug in the Miix2 8 power adapter with a male to mail usb3 cable
and a powered usb2 hub and daisy chain all the pieces from there.
Not all OTG's are created equal. You need a really good thick wired one to get the charging to stay at 100 %
I had one that was 'under performing' and replaced it with one that is working nice now.
And that goes for a lot of things. I tried all my phone USB power adapters as a 'backup' for the Lenovo one and
found only the Samsung power adapter for my Galaxy to work (figures since it also demands a good power adapter)
The usb3.0 unpowered hub also has better (thick) wiring for signalling.
When I struck upon this combo I achieved a setup that doesn't run the battery down at all. YEAH!
If you do a setup like this and it doesn't maintain 100% then you need to replace the OTG or the cable
coming from the power adapter.
I don't know if this helps but in place of the male to mail cable that pushes the power thru the unpowered hub
to the Miix I use a Y-cable, kinda like the kind you get with an external DVD drive, that's connected to two
usb power hubs and that ups the amps while still maintaing 5 volts.

Lenovo Miix 2 8 inch HDMI Adapter?

I want to display my Lenovo Miix 2 on TV equipped with an HDMI input. I don't believe the Miix 2 is MHL compatible. Is there an adapter to connect the Miix 2 micro-USB port to HDMI?

Dear TonyBLenovoUser
Welcome to Lenovo forums
to connect this machine to an external monitor you will need a connector like the one in the below image
Try and let me know
Thanks

Lenovo Miix 2 8 Control panel freezes

Santa recently brought me a fresh Lenovo Miix 2 8 (64 GB). It's been just fine until I realized I can't execute windows update at all. When I go to control panel and try to access windows update, it changes the topic in the control panel window, but doesn't open any windows update settings. The control panel window then freezes and cannot be closed in any way, can't be moved either. The same thing happens when I try to access language settings in control panel. So basically I can't update windows nor tweak language settings, because the window freezes if I try to do so. When I try to access windows update via the new win 8 UI, it won't freeze or crash as far as I remember, but just won't load anything.
Help me out please! I'm not sure if it's lenovo or windows that's to blame but I don't think I'm keeping the device if this can't be fixed. Couldn't find others having similar problems either. This problem occurred basically straight out of the box, which is strange.

Hi,
I had the same error.
After i deinstall the latest drivers (comes with Windows-Update) of 'Intel(R) Imaging Signal Processor 2400' the camera works fine.
You can deinstall the latest drivers in the DeviceManager under ImagingDevice (known so in english?), then properties for driver and 'install previous driver'.
Please tell us when it works again.
Thanks and sorry for my bad english

Lenovo Miix 2 8 brightness

I bought a miix 2 8 inch the last week, i really like it.
There is something strange about the brightness level.
It seems that using the windows slide bar, it reach the maximum level at 50% of the bar.
From the 50% to the 100% of the bar it doesn't change the real brightness of the device.
Thanks
Solved!

I do have the same problem here. How can I increase its brightness? We have to the same lenovo miix 2 11 tablets at home. The one 's screen brightness is not high enough even if it reaches the maximum in the bar (manually doing it). Thank you

Right-click the start orb in 8.1 or the left bottom corner.
Then choose to run Command Prompt (As Administrator)
Next type 'WSReset.exe'
Restart and try again.

Stylus no funciona bien en Lenovo Miix 3 1030

Hola a todos.
He probado en la pantalla de un Lenovo miix 3 1030 con dos modelos de stylus diferentes (adonit jot pro y wacom bamboo stylus) y con ambos cuando intento escribir obtengo trazos discontínuos en vez de líneas contínuas. Sin embargo cuando escribo con el dedo sí que funciona bien.
¿Tenéis idea de por qué puede ser?
Un saludo y gracias de antemano.
¡Resuelto!
Ir a solución.

Hola Guimadrid,
La pantalla del Mixx no esta diseñada para stylus.
Posiblemente un stylus con punta de goma te funcionaria bien pero de nuevo, Lenovo no confirma compatibilidad para este producto con ningun stylus.
Gracias y Saludos,

Lenovo Miix 2 11 wont recognize any SD cards

I have two Lenovo Miix 2 devices. One device will not read any SD cards. I have even tried formatting and using Miix SD cards from my working Miix and no luck.
Am I missing a driver? What is going on?
thanks
Mike

Greetings Rowan,
Questions:
If you open Macintosh HD > Applications > Image Capture and insert an SD card does it show up?
Does the same issue occur with multiple SD cards?
If you put an SD card in and go to Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > System Profiler > Card Reader do you see card information (as below) or just "Built in SD Card Reader":
Try:
Reset the SMC and then test: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964.
Reset the PRAM and then test: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/26871.html.
Remove the contents of Macintosh HD > Library > Caches to the trash and restart the computer and test.
Assuming you are running 10.6.8 as your profile indicates, install the combo update and test: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Hope that helps.

Lenovo Miix 3 10.1 Low resolution

I recently purchased a Lenovo Miix 3 10.1" screen, even though the specifications page states that it has a native 1920 x 1200 screen resolution I only get three options to change it in the intel graphics app, none of which go beyond 1280 x 768. I already updated bios, drivers and windows 8.1 to their latest versions. I also tried setting a custom resolution but the option appears disabled.

when i bought it, i was also considering a asus transformer tf100 iirc it is alot worse offering, models with keyboard, without keyboard, with32 gbs of hdd, 1 gb or 2 gbs of ram, hard disk on keyboard or no hard disk option at all it is a mess worse than this one, at least 720(almost) is perfectly usable on this size of screen, or at least i find it usable the other thing i would like to get on this tablet was the rear camera, but since this is a big tablet, that camera wouldn't be of any use

Lenovo miix 2 10 windows 8.1 key

Dear Lenovo support Forum,
I have a Lenovo Miix 2 10"1 without keyboard, 64Gb version with office 2013 home and student license.
On my disk had 16Gb space after my programs installed.
So I tried to save the whole drive to my nas bit-to bit but I could't boot to a linux while i swithced off the secure boot.
I made a new windows 8.1 core installer prepared to Wimboot.
I Installed to the internal drive everything and after the office-updates-drivers-softwares-email-backups i have now 40Gb free space, the CPU freq now on IDLE is under 1Ghz ( better for battery) and i have more RAM.
Now I have a really big problem: I forgot to write down my original Windows 8.1 core key. How can i get it back?
I downloaded a read-write everything software ( x86) but I cannot find a same MSDN?? field at ACPI so I could not get the windows 8.1 key from the BIOS.
Is there any way to get is back? I have all of the SN noumber, etc so how?
Or from this point I have to buy a new operation system?

Tried to start the powershell and copy that line but after 2 minutes I stopped that.
You can download RWEverything utility from http://rweverything.com/ run it, select table ACPI, then tab MSDM and you can see the key. That command line command works on my miix2, I can't say why not on your computer.
