Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: P400 Touch Battery Not Charging?

Dec 29, 2013

I've had my P400 for a few years now and today it stopped charging. Not like where it says "plugged in, not charging" but the battery isn't getting any power, when I plug my charger into the port on the side I noticed that the battery light that normally . I took it apart and I checked where you plug it in because I found that this is a common problem with laptops, but it's fine.

Lenovo P400 P/Y/Z Series :: Touch Battery Not Charging

Dec 27, 2013

I have a P400 Touch that was purchased just a few months ago (February I believe) and it's been great so far.  This past month, however, I haven't used it (until now) and noticed that my battery icon is stuck on "36% available (plugged in, charging)" but the thing is it's not charging whatsoever.  What's worse is that if/when I pull the adapter from the laptop, it cuts off completely.  The battery indicator light is steady white when the adapter is plugged in as well.

Lenovo P400 P/Y/Z Series :: Touch Screen Brightness Won't Adjust

Apr 13, 2013

I used my brightness down button once and now it won't go back up. I can't adjust the settings at all, despite the graphic on the screen showing me the meter going up and down. I've checked all drivers, tried uninstalling and reinstalling lenovo energy management, and I've still got nothing. I've stopped short of a factory reset because that's super annoying having set everything up and then a couple weeks after purchase have to do it again.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: IdeaPad P400 - Reverse Function (Fn) Keys

Feb 24, 2013

I recently purchased an Ideapad P400, and I have noticed that the default for  the keys where  F1 and F2, etc. usually are, are now the mute and volume buttons.  To access the F1, F2....F12 keys, you now have to press Fn + your desired F key.  
 
While I understand many people probably find this useful, I play several games where these keys are essential, and it makes playing the games nearly impossible to play if you have to hold down the Fn key in addition to the desired F key.  So my question is, is it possible to reverse the Function keys?  I would much rather press Fn + F1 to mute than have to press press Fn + F1 to access F1.

Lenovo U/S Series :: U310 Battery Stops Charging Around 58%

Jan 23, 2010

My battery stops charging around 58%. I have the power plan set to "optimized battery lifespan". I understand it has something to do with a charge/discharge threshold setting. How do I go about changing that? Also, what would be a good level to set it to (good for battery health).

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: P500 Battery Shows Charging But Stuck At 40%

Feb 18, 2014

My p500 shows that it is at 40% and that it IS charging (most of the other stops states that it isn't charging).  It could be that windows thinks the battery is charging, but it obviously isnt because when I pull the power plug, the laptop immediatley shuts off.  Obviously the battery doesn't have a charge.
 
I got the latest version of the lenovo energy manager, but that didn't do anything.  Also, I don't recall the enery manager being there.  I am almost certain that it was not there prior to windows 8.1 upgrade.
 
Device Manager shows all of the hardware with no missing drivers/unknown hardware.
 
I have been running the battery conditioner which is suppose to run the battery down and then charge it back up. That has been going on for a few hours and it is still at 40%, where it has been stuck from the start.

Lenovo B / G Series :: G570 Battery Not Charging - Stuck At 90% But Has No Charge At All

Jun 26, 2014

My Lenovo G570 battery is stuck at 90%. It says plugged in, not charging. It just happened over night. Next day battery refuse to work.
 
In windows it says battery 90% and is not charging but battery has no charge at all. When I disconnet the A/C power laptop just shutdown immediately. As soon as I unplug the power laptop just shutdown as there is no charge in the battery.
 
I did reinstalled the Power management and also updated it. I all unplugged reboot in OS, restart, put battery back and boot into the OS back. Nothing seems to work.

I just installed Lenovo Energy Management in windows 8 before I was trying in windows 7. In the battery tab there are two options
 
Maximum battery Life Optimized battery Health. It is selected to "Optimized battery Health" and won't change regardless of power plan. I click on  "Maximum battery Life" and when I open the app again it reset it to "Optimized battery Health".

Lenovo Solution Center say that battery life is GOOD. "Your battery is in good condition".

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Z510 Battery Plugged In Charging But Remains On 0%

Feb 12, 2015

I installed windows 8.1 pro with WMC on my lenovo z510 laptop and installed energy management driver from laptop's drivers dvd. After I installed LEM (lenovo energy management) i started the gauge reset process for my laptop.

After some hours i saw nothing is happening so i made a mistake and cancelled gauge reset in the management software and after that when i restarted my laptop my battery icon says PLUGGED IN CHARGING but it just remians on 0% !!!!!

Problem solved by for example uninstall and reinstalling MICROSOFT ACPI. but notice that i reinstalled my windows 8.1 ! i changed in to windows 7 ! again changed it to windows 8.1 !!!

I updated the energy management software ! nothing happened !

Then try to restart to BIOS menu and from there restore BIOS defaults ! but i couldn't enter BIOS from any ways ! from pressing F1 ! from the way based on windows 8.1 and UEFI frimware settings (somthing like that) ! from none of them i could enter the BIOS!

So now my battery is still facing the problem !you know that it's not easy to unattatch and reattatch z510 battery that is internal ! so at last i must say that i've checked a lot of ways and now my battery is still having problem !

Lenovo X300 Series ThinkPad :: Battery Charging Stuck At 99%

Dec 2, 2013

I have a problem with my Lenovo ThinkPad X300 computer. The battery charging stuck at 99% (remaining capacity about 69% and 300 cycles). The Power Manager displays, the battery is at 100% but "status" periodically changes - both Power Manager and Windows battery indicator - between "No activity" and "Charging".

Every time stuck at the same "Remaining capacity". As i noticed during battery user windows and the Power Manager displays different information about the remaining battery level and time.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Slow Charging After Battery Reaches About 80 Percent Or So - Y510p

Oct 31, 2013

I was just wondering what the average time was for a totally dead y510p to charge while using it for some light browsing on the internet. It seems to charge really slow especially after it reaches about 80 percent or so. I was curious to see what other owners have had in terms of charge time. I seem to have narrowed it down to about 5 percent every 10 minutes while my cousins HP charges way faster. Not too upset about it but a bit curious. For example as I am typing this out it's been at 99% for the past 20 minutes or so, and HW monitor shows it charging really slowly but when its at like 50 percent it charges at a decent rate maybe about 10 mwh every 5 seconds or so.

Lenovo Yoga 11 Flex :: Battery Is Not Charging (sometimes)

Jul 24, 2013

I have the issue that my newly bought Yoga 11 (three weeks ago) is charging whenever it seems to feel like. The first time I have charged it, it went up to 92 % telling me its now in power state and not charging. This happened triple. Yesterday my Yoga was beneath the 50 % mark and I plugged in the powercable, the same again: not charging. I unplugged the power cable and at 0 % and a shutdown I booted it and it charged perfectely up to 99 % without moaning. I unplugged the cable and at 77 % the same again, I plugged in the power cable and it charged up to 99 % again.
 
Is this a bug (battery problem) or a feature (thresholds for a long living battery)?

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro Flex :: Battery Not Charging - 0% Available

Aug 13, 2014

My battery is at 0% available, plugged in charging, but it never goes about 0%. I've tried resetting the battery gauge in Energy Manger 1.0.1.49 but that only runs for a few seconds and reports that the gauge reset is complete. I've also disabled the ACPI control in device manager then enabling it and the icon appears to be charging but only for a few seconds then stops. Having conservation mode on or off doesn't seem to make any difference.
 
The latest BIOS is installed and I believe I have the latest version of Energy Manager.

Lenovo 11e E/Edge :: ThinkPad 15 Slow CPU While Charging Battery

Jan 24, 2013

With this laptop, the CPU usage rises significantly whenever the battery is charging. If I'm on running on battery power or it's fully charged, I don't have this problem. The CPU stays at 2-3% while browsing the internet, for example. But browsing the internet while the battery is charging will send the CPU up to 90-100%. It's not just browsing the internet, but any task, such as running Sony Vegas, using Skype, watching a movie, etc.
 
Again, this only happens while the battery is charging. Everything runs much, much slower. All power management settings are identical whether it be running on battery or charging with the AC adapter, so it's not that. I am also using the 65w power adapter that was supplied with the computer, and the adapter becomes very hot to the touch while charging.

Lenovo U/S Series :: Add RAM To U330 Touch

Oct 17, 2013

How easy is it to increase the RAM in a U330 touch (from the 4Gb supplied)? Is there a plate on the underside which can be unscrewed to reveal the DIMM sockets? Any special tools required? Will the existing module be 1 x 4Gb, with a spare socket to add 4Gb? Or will it be 2 x 2Gb, in which case I have to discard both and replace with 2 x 4Gb?
