Battery ThinkPad Tablet has taken a lot of time to fully charge

As the title says, when the battery remains below 20%. It took more than 20 hours to fully recharge the battery which is impossible for me to use every day.

But sometimes, it took only about 4 hours to fully charge which happens rarely.

So, I think that it is a software issue more to a hardware problem.

And it has past since day 1 I buy the machine.

Can someone recommend me?

Help is very much appreciated and I thank you

Make sure that the Tablet is completely off while charging. Use the cable adapter and USB OEM power. If the slate does not detect the right brick cable/power he can enter a fully compatible USB mode, drawing only 0.5 Watts and this means a slow, very slow, process leader, who, in fact, can last up to 20 hours.

If all else fails, buy a dock. It is not very expensive and, from what I've read, it's worth the money.

So, make sure you have all updates applied. I found no information on OTA you run on your computer, but if you think it may be a software problem, it's the best way to get an answer. Updates are very valuable and will make your slate run faster. 2 OTA has an update of the firmware of the battery, and it can also be useful.

  • 1 BATTERY ThinkPad Tablet

    As the title suggests, I think that I need a replacement battery for my Thinkpad Tablet 1838.

    I went for 3 months and came home to a dead tablet. It does not take a charge, used to power over everything.

    Replace the battery an option?

    Thank you in advance!

    I suggest that you call Lenovo support and ask if they propose replacing the battery and if so how much they charge.

    Be sure to tell them why you think the battery is dead. Although it is unlikely, perhaps they can offer a way to revive.

  • On a new laptop battery life is less than 5 minutes; says it's fully charged

    I bought a Clevo M72S/M721S Mini laptop, a year ago. When I bought it, it had about 10 minutes of battery life. Now, it lasts 5 minutes without the AC is plugged in. When it is plugged in, however, it is said that the battery is charging and is 100%. I don't know if it's a dead battery, a battery life vulnerability in XP, a bad connection or something else. I've never used this thing only on batteries, with the exception of battery life tests. Help, please!

I've never used this thing only on batteries, with the exception of battery life tests. Help, please!

    Critics of this mini are not too abundant, but I found a couple for the re-brand model, and the life of the battery when new, was, on average, about 75 to 90 minutes. Since you never more than 10 minutes BL, and it seems to work fine on AC, my guess would be a bad battery from the beginning. Too bad it's probably out of warranty, but you can try to contact them in any case to see if there is perhaps a battery recall.

    You could try to calibrate the battery. Read this article and see whether or not you want to try it:

  • Flash on Firefox 10.0 Thinkpad Tablet

    Yesterday afternoon, my Thinkpad Tablet has arrived.

    After installing a few applications, I decided to try Firefox. It works very well for navigation, and I much prefer the user interface to the default browser.

    The only problem is that I can't get the plugin flash to it, google, research, it seems like it should work fine, but when I go to install Flash for Firefox, a tab will open called 'Manager Mobile Settings'. The tab is completely empty, and I can't seem to get one more away than that.

    Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I just have to stick to the default browser?

    I don't think any Firefox for android has flash support. They have not yet released in favor of their beta version. Opera supports flash and it's a great browser.

  • The battery takes only 10 minutes and portable life time stopping randomly.

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite with Windows Vista. I got it for about 4 years, and since a few weeks ago my battery life has declined rapidly. Once it is fully charged, I unplug the unit and he said that I usually have about 13 minutes remaining until I have to reload. The battery used to last nearly 2 hours. 20% remaining capacity, my computer is asleep at random and locks. I have to wait a few minutes and then press the power button / stop and type in my password again. I already have my plan of the battery power as "Power Saver" that increases the battery life. I was prompted to change my setting of peak power, which I did, with no result. Here's what my settings are:

    Critical battery action: sleep (cannot change this)
    Critical battery level: 1%
    Low battery action: do nothing
    Low battery: 3%
    I changed numbers autour and nothing seems to work better than anything else. I'm really angry at the short battery life and falling asleep randomly. Can anyone help? Should I get a new laptop or just a new battery?

    Hello

    4 years is a long time for a battery and degradation that you see is expected.

    Old battery? Unplug the power to the computer - remove the battery and clean the contacts with a pencil
    eraser (do not use this, if your battery is fine slots - just clean up the edges of the knife which fit in)
    them and be careful). Batteries are old, or it could be a problem with the computer.
    Check with the support of the machine system, and many of them have on line forums.

    New Lithium-Ion type battery usually last longer if you do not unload then less than 30%
    However on a laptop that not extend their life a lot. Best is to use the a/c adapter
    When this is possible.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones stuck on 'low battery' with a fully charged battery

    I have a Blackberry Curve 8330, I have had for years and never had any problems with it.

    But today, the battery is dead even if I loaded last night, I thought a little weird.  Came home, plugged into the wall, but although it recognizes to be connected with the little zig - zag, he is not required to load.

    I think that "grateful" is a better way to phrase it.  I put the phone battery from a friend, who fortunately has the same model as me, and his recognized the same battery as being almost fully charged phone and had no problem, but when put back in my phone, it says "low battery", guard the radio is off, and as soon as I unplug the wall adapter, the phone stops due to low battery.

    Tried with its battery too, recognized both as low battery.  She apparently is not the batteries or the charger or the actual usb port, and I am at a loss what to do.

    I have not downloaded applications, or updated the operating system during the weeks, so I don't know why you would choose now to start doing this.  Does anyone have an idea of what is wrong, and what I can do about it? Or is my blackberry doomed?

    Well, after the one on the desktop without the battery in it, it started fine this morning with a fully charged battery and is fine.  Hoping that he'll be fine next time I try to load it.

    Problem is at least temporarily resolved, thanks for the suggestions of things to try.  At least she stopped me from throwing my phone something = P

  • To maximize independence, should I fully charge my case smart battery before the first use?

    I just got my smart box and I'm looking for advice on maximizing its battery life/performance.  Instructions for my iphone says to fully charge the phone prior to activation, but I heard that it is better to let the battery drain completely before recharging.  Suggestions?

    Instructions for my iPhone says to charge the phone before activation

    It's just to ensure that you don't miss power while activating.

    but I heard that it is better to let the battery drain completely before recharging.

    It is the case for nickel-cadmium batteries, but not for the batteries the lithium in the iPhone.  Load them when you want.  It is not good to let them go completely dead unnecessarily.

  • Memory, ThinkPad Tablet 64 GB Version 2

    I got my ThinkPad Tablet 2, who ordered the 64 GB version, precisely because I new that I got some programs that require a lot of space for resources.

    Upon receipt, I saw the list of materials that referenced a USB has been provided for 32 GB units. Surprisingly, the units of 64 GB loading this information in ram effectively denying what should have been a considerable amount of memory live.

    Anyway is to unload files to a memory stick system recovery in order to free the RAM?

    I think I found a way. This creates a recovery USB disk.

    1. tap search in the bar of charms.

    2. Type "Recovery" and then press on to find settings

    3. click on 'create a disc of Recvovery '.

    4. follow the steps in this wizard

    5. in the end, it will give you the option to delete the recovery section on the hard disk to free up space now that it is saved to USB.

  • ThinkPad tablet 2 slow/fast load on different occasions

    Hi the Thinkpad tablet 2 users.

    I know there are a lot of bugs were found so far. For me, I had to return once because of the incapbility of the digitizer on this tablet. I got a new one seems flawless, but I just found something that might be quite annoying but interesting at the same time, as the title suggests, so here are the details:

    -If I have my Tablet completely off and then plug the micro usb cable to recharge (mode ca, or what is called: wall plug), after nearly 9 hours, the battery % is 30% ~ 90%, which is extremely slow.

    -If I turn on my computer while charging and turn it off again, it loads much faster, from 30% to 100% in less than 3 hours.

    -In a similar to the one above, if I let it load mode 'sleep', she also go much faster

    In conclusion: there seems to be something in the window 8 who control the load, it seems that whenever you leave your window to know that he is in charge, she goes much more quickly than if you have it completely turned off and plug the cable to recharge. I need more time to test this theory, but if you have the same experience, please leave a message here, even just 'me too' or 'here '.

    Best,

    Tuan


  • ThinkPad Tablet 2 set button pen

    Hey all, I have ThinkPad Tablet 2 with the Wacom digitizer and an active stylus. The stylus a button on the side which the manual says is for screenshot. I would like to configure this button to be identical to a right mouse click on the button (I'm not a fan of the tap water then hold list drop-down functionality of the right mouse button trigger). To make this I:

    -Search 'calibrate' in Win10

    -went to "calibrate the screen for pen or press ENTER.

    -On the dialog box opened, I clicked on the tab 'other '.

    -J' clicked on the link "Go to Pen and Touch" under "configure your pen and tap Settings in pen and touch.

    -An open windows error dialog box that says:

    "Tablet and pen settings is not available. For assistance, contact the manufacturer of your tablet PC. (error = 0). »

    So here I am and here are my questions: why these settings are not available? Is there another way to configure the associated stylus button action? Thank you!

    Problem solved. I uninstalled Windows 10 and reinstalled and the pen settings are now available and more screen auto-rotation, now working as well. I find this strange because I makes no other changes to the Tablet and I was running any other software before, during and after my first upgrade of Windows 10. I guess an update has been published or there was a quirk in my initial upgrade of Win10. In any case, all's well that ends well

  • ThinkPad Tablet 2 random Crash of the common OS.

    Nice day.

    I have a new Thinkpad Tablet 2 with windows, Non-cryptage, 32 gig.

    I have only one question, random os crash so far.

    It happens anywhere, usually once a day.

    While it is plugged in or on battery, or offline.

    It happens on different application, desktop, browser, email, to the login screen.

    The only thing that seems to be constant memory, is that it occurs when the on-screen keyboard appears.

    All updates are done, I do it manually to keep track of it and ensure that it is done correctly.

    I love this product, I do not understand this bug are expected on new devices.

    Whenever it happens, I'll post in detail. I am in the island this will help Lenovo is the problem earlier.

    Any ideas on how to solve this or if any information that someone thinks that it might be useful to find the problem, please let me know.
