Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro Flex :: Movement (scrolling) On Screen Interferes With Sound?

Oct 19, 2014

Just picked up my brand new Yoga 3 Pro a few days ago and on the whole I love it, except I've just noticed there's an odd issue when listening to music (whether it be local or streaming thru spotify).
 
If I'm browsing a document in Word or even when accessing the Lenovo Support screen from the Start menu, any left to right horizontal scrolling (either with the touch screen or touchpad) causes a crackling interference to the sound. I did notice it would crackle as the Discussion forum cards were loading up and appearing too. 
 
It's not the physical speakers themselves because this occurs thru headphones as well. 
 
Strange thing is it doesn't occur when scrolling vertically through a document. 
 
On the whole it's not a HUGE problem, but given it's a brand new 2grand laptop, now while it's still brand new and I haven't even had a chance to load much onto it. How to stop this from happening?

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro Flex :: Sound Quality Optimization

Nov 24, 2013

So I have been trying to optimize the sound quality of the headphone jack (I have a pair of Shure SE-420k IEMs and a small headphone amp) while trying to maintain the relatively good sound quality of the built in speakers:
 
1.  Uninstall Realtek drivers and use the basic Windows 8 drivers (this is what I'm currently doing)
 
Pros:  These drivers allow me to cleanly increase the bass with the Bass Boost (up to a 24 dB boost with whatever LPF cutoff you want) setting in the driver, so that plus a little bit of EQ for the highs in whatever music player you use (mainly Spotify and the EQualify plugin for me) plus the headphone amp yields satisfactory sound quality in my IEMs.  This is the only way I have achieved a clean, natural sound with deep low end bass in my IEMs from this computer.  It also gets rid of the annoying popup when you plug/unplug headphones.  Static in the line is also reduced.
 
Cons:  The above way of EQing gets you the perfect signal but at a very low amplitude so you need a headphone amp for your earphones.  And when you listen to music or whatever through the built in speakers, you have to go through the settings and disable the Bass Boost or it will be barely audible.  Even if you do this, the maximum volume is about half of what it was with the Realtek drivers and in apps like Hulu and Netflix this is a real problem.  Dolby Home Theater 4 also goes away when you uninstall Realtek but you don't really need it at this point.
 
2.  Keep the Realtek drivers and EQ the crap out of the earphones with whatever music software you use
 
Pros:  The built-in laptop speakers are loud and sound great.
 
Cons:  Hiss in the line when it comes to earphones.  If you don't EQ, the $400 earphones sound like $10 earphones.  And if you do EQ: 1.  They don't sound natural, 2.  Since most EQs only go to +-12 dB, the only way to get a +24 dB bass boost without distortion is to put your bass frequencies at +12 dB and all your other frequencies at -12 dB and this just sounds weird, also many EQs don't have a 32 Hz band, 3. To sum it up you can't get satisfactory sound out of the headphone jack, 4. There's a popup whenever you plug/unplug the earphones.

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro Flex :: Audio Jack - No Sound Comes Out Of Headphones

Jan 14, 2014

I have a brand new Yoga 2 Pro that has an audio jack problem. The internal speakers play audio just fine.  When I plug in a pair of headphones into the jack on the right side of the unit, no audio comes out of the headphones.  The internal speaker continues to produce audio as if there is nothing plugged in. 
 
Failed solutions:

I've tried using various types of headphones.  No change.
I tried re-downloading the audio realtek drivers from the lenovo website and re-installing them.  No change.
I tried rolling back the audio driver to the Windows version.  No change.
 
Is there anything else I can try?   Non-working audio jack makes this a dealbreaker and I'll need to return the unit.
 
Update: According to Lenovo phone support, all my headphones are 3.5mm and they need to be 2.5mm.  Frankly, I think they have it backwards and what I have are 2.5mm plugs, but either way I'm headed to radio shack to find an adapter to make this work.

Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 Flex :: Mini HDMI For Monitor No Sound

Apr 23, 2014

I have a yoga pro 2 and I want to connect to an external monitor. I bought a mini HDMI to HDMI cable. Video is perfect but no sound. If I plug into a TV the sound comes from the TV so cable is OK. Can I change the settings on the Yoga to allow the sound to come from the computer speakers when plugged into an external monitor using mini HDMI?

Lenovo Yoga 13 Flex :: Windows 8.1 - Physical Keyboard And Sound Disabled

Oct 24, 2013

So I love my Lenovo yoga until I upgraded to windows 8.1 then all of a sudden every time I signed into my computer via Microsoft account my keyboard and audio would be completely disabled I called Lenovo support they connected to my computer went through all of my settings and uninstalled and reinstalled drivers, nothing his last guess was to tell me to restore my computer.

So I did and as my laptop ramped up it asked to sign into a Microsoft account so I did (keep in mind this computer is fully functional after the restore everything works perfect) as soon as I hit the enter key the keyboard and audio become disabled fully disabled my, physical keyboard. Since the computer worked great right after the restore I also know that it is not a hardware issue as I have already sent it out to get all the sensors replaced its a software problem that revolves around my Microsoft account who do I talk to about this Lenovo? Or Microsoft? Lenovo just keeps telling me that I need to restore my computer completely ignoring the exact issues I am describing ,and as far as Microsoft account, this is not something I control I only own the account Microsoft manages it so why is my Microsoft account disabling my keyboard, again I stress I have done every single driver check there is I have uninstalled all of them and reinstalled.

I have looked through my settings as well as had a technician remotely control my computer to confirm that the computer is in perfect working order no settings out of place and then I restored all my settings to default and then restored the computer and everything works great until I enter my Microsoft account email and password  then my keyboard becomes disabled instantaneously. And yes I was able to sign in using the keyboard

Lenovo Yoga 13 Flex :: Screen Brightness / Flickering

Oct 29, 2012

Loving my Yoga 13 so far have had it since Oct 26th when it was released. Like everyone else I had some issues with partitioning yadda yadda yadda, got that taken care of, but lately I've noticed that my screen brightness seems to flicker, ALL the time, when switching from program to program if the color changes on the screen I notice that the brightness changes as well in noticeable increments. I have the automatic brightness setting set to OFF, so I can't imagine that's the reason.

Lenovo Yoga 13 Flex :: Way To Disable Touch Screen

Jul 26, 2013

I have a crack on my screen that starts in the bottom left and spreads to almost the top right. It is not bad and everything works fine except for the touchscreen. Only half the touchscreen works and sometimes the crack causes the other half of the touchscreen to act on its own and its very annoying and messes me up when I try to surf the web or use Microsoft Office. Is there a way I can disable the touchscreen?

Lenovo Yoga Flex 15 :: Screen Keeps Changing Brightness

May 21, 2014

I have just bought the Flex 15. I looked at the power settings and set the brightness, but it is ignoring the settings and always either darker or brighter than I want it. It keeps flickering between being darker and brighter and it's giving me a headache. It is unplugged if that makes a difference, I haven't used it plugged in yet to know if it does it then. How can I stop it? I've looked through the settings and can't find anything.

Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S Series :: Mouse Movement In Tablet Mode On Twist

Nov 16, 2012

I got a new Twist a couple of days ago. When in tablet mode, the mouse pointer will come up and start moving around the screen. I think it may be one of two things. 1. The ghost of my former laptop is haunting the Twist or 2. The keyboard/mouse is not disabled in tablet mode and the back of my screen is causing the movement when I am using it in tablet mode. Is there a setting to disable the keyboard/mouse in tablet mode or am I the only one having this problem.

Lenovo 15 Yoga Flex :: Black Screen After Memory Upgrade?

Aug 29, 2014

I have a Lenovo Flex 15 device (i5 version with 4GB ram). I upgraded it with an SSD, reinstalled Win 8.1 in UEFI mode. Everything works fine.
 
Next I replaced the 4GB memory with an 8GB version (same speed, Kingston) now the machine won't boot anymore, all it shows me is a black screen, both with power switch and novo button. If I reinsert the original ram it boots just fine again. The 8GB ram is not faulty, I tried it in another device and it works. I also tried disabling secure boot in bios but it's the same problem.

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro Flex :: Screen Not Rotating On New Windows 8.1 Install

Dec 1, 2014

I got my new Yoga 2 Pro last week and the screen rotation worked properly. I decided to wipe the partitions and install my own version of Windows 8.1.

Since then the screen rotation doesn't work. The screen rotation button doesn't do anything and I don't have the 'Enable auto-rotate' checkbox in the resolution screen
 
In my device manager I have an error on 'HID Sensor collection' saying "This device cannot start" (Code 10). Failed to initialize sensor from HID collection descriptor". I am not sure if this is related.

Lenovo Yoga 13 Flex :: Black Screen - Bios Settings

Jan 14, 2014

I've been having problems with the dreaded "black screen" when starting my Yoga13 (but only somethimes!). To try and narrow it down, as there seem to be so many things that can cause this, I went into the Bios settings from "F2" and setup it up to ask for a "Power on" password before starting windows.
 
What I have discovered is that when the black screen occurs its BEFORE the Bios asks for the initial "Power on" password, ie I cannot see the box asking for the password and so Windows has NOT yet started to load. To overcome this, I just press the power button to switch off the system, wait 20seconds and then it will usually start.
 
Once past this, no errors ever occur on the windows side.

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro Flex :: Black Screen After BIOS Update?

Dec 10, 2013

I just formatted my yoga 2 pro, downloaded the drivers and ran the Bios Update. I followed the instruction on the read me, ran the .exe, clicked next/ok until the laptop restarted and if I'm not mistaken a red menu with a progress bar showed up. At that point I left and when I came back a few minutes later the laptop was turned on, the screen lighting was on but the display was black, the keyboard backlights were also turned on and everything else was off. The lights on/near the power button that signal if it's turned on and plugged to the AC are turned off.
 
It's been like this for over 30 minutes now, no signs of progress. I'm not very keen on turning off or unplugging the laptop while flashing the BIOS, but at this point there's not much else I can do.

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro Flex :: Screen Is Unwantedly Adjusting Brightness

Nov 9, 2013

I've noticed the screen on my Yoga 2 pro tries to automatically adjust the brightness of the display depending on how dark or light the content being displayed is... I want to figure out a way to make it stop. For example, my desktop background is just plain black, and when i got to my desktop, it starts to dim by 4-5 levels lower, and then when I go back to my browser, it reverses and starts to turn up the brightness by 4-5 levels. I've already tinkered with all the power settings and even the advanced power settings to turn of auto dim/automatically adjust brightness etc and all those settings but it still does it.

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro Flex :: Major Screen Flicker Followed By Black Out

I don't think this is the same screen flicker that is experienced by the few others due to auto brightness problems...
 
It's flickering black and then the whole thing turns unresponsive after a while...and although the video shows it happening during a low light environment, i have had this encounter during a brightly lit area as well...

I've posted a copy of what really happens on google drive. Is this a case of motherboard problems? I jsut got my laptop about 3 weeks ago. Any chance for a 1-1 exchange?

Lenovo Yoga 13 Flex :: I5 Model - Screen Auto Dimming Won't Disable

Oct 23, 2013

Just picked up this model from Best Buy yesterday. Like everyone else in the large thread I am having the yellow color issue as well. However, I have another issue that I can't seem to find any information on.
 
The brightness on my screen is constantly adjusting. It is most obvious when making the move from the desktop to Metro. After hitting the windows key, I can see the brightness increasing in stages (about 4 times) after flipping over to Metro.
 
I have disabled Auto-Brightness under the Change My PC Setting -> Power and Sleep menu. I have also disabled Enable Adpative Brightness under Windows Power Mangement but the issue still persists.
 
Is there any other location I might be missing a setting that can be affecting this ? Brightness is set to full and keeps dipping down.

Lenovo Yoga 13 Flex :: IdeaPad Touch Screen Not Working After Plugging In USB Device

May 24, 2014

I use a USB MIDI keyboard (Akai LPK25) with my Ideapad. I've not previously had an issue with this configuration, but since about a week ago, as soon as I plug in the device the touch screen becomes disabled. Removing the device doesn't restore touch screen functionality; I actually have to reboot.
 
Was there a recent USB upgrade that's causing this issue?

I've just updated mine 15 minutes ago, haven't come across any bugs or usability issue.

Touching on the screen when typing still does bring up the OnScreen Keyboard ...

Oh well ... At least the text is much sharper now compared to the previous versions of browsers ... I have a Y2P (i5) ...

Lenovo Yoga 2 ProFlex :: Laggy / Choppy Scrolling When Reading EBooks And PDF Files

Sep 12, 2014

I just got the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro 13.3" Touchscreen Ultrabook - (Intel Core i5-4210U) last week. I need it for college, mostly for reading ebooks and PDF files... but also for HTML coding, photoshop, illustrator, and after effects. 
 
However, I am having lagging problems when reading ebooks, and PDF files (on Adobe Reader). When I scroll the scrolling is choppy, slow and laggy. Is there a way to make the scrolling smoother? This problem happens both in tablet and laptop mode. The scrolling is fine when I'm on the internet or using another software, it mostly happens on PDF files and ebooks. 
 
Just to clarify the lag/choppy scrolling happens BOTH when using the trackpad and when using the touchscrean display. When I open a PDF it is automatically choppy and laggy.
