IdeaPad S205 battery charge no problem

Hello, I have a Lenovo IdeaPad S205 and met with some difficulties. The charger has recently stopped working and I bought a replacement - the original charger has a 20V power, whereas the replacement 19V power. However, I don't think it would make a difference. That being said, when I plugged in the charger, it says "plugged in, not load." I took the battery and put it again, in as I had a similar problem before, and making it fixed. The system remained on while the battery was out, and I noticed the battery percentage is not down while this replacement is plugged. In addition, the original now seems to do the same thing - "plugged in, not load." Can anyone offer any assistance?

Hi Ben_R,

It's weird. Can try you to:

1 turn on the computer with just the AC adapter and loading Windows to the top, slide the battery and observe.

2. turn off the machine with the inserted battery. When the machine is turned off, plug the AC adapter and see if the battery is charged.

  • new S205 - battery charging

    I just buy an Ideapad S205.  The main power plugged into the battery icon continues to show 50% available, (plugged in, does not support).  Is this good?

    Must charge the battery while the computer is running?

    Any help/advice appreciated

    Thank you

    Click on start-> all programs-> Lenovo-> management energy-> power management options.

    Start the program.  Look at the summary at the top.  Does say 'Best battery health' beside the blue gear icon?  If so, you will thus limit the load on your S205 50% (but your battery will last longer... overall autonomy, that is).

    If you want to change it, choose the speed at the bottom right, and when the menu appears, select "Optimize for the duration of the battery."  This will allow for your battery charges to 100% full (but your battery life will be shorter).

  • Satellite 1130 battery charge problem

    Hi, just joined this site. I have a Satellite 1130 and seem to have a battery charging problem. Every so often, without regular pattern or a set of events to help the machine starts beeping and the Red charge blinks, as if the battery charge runs out, it is, but it happens when the charger is plugged - green power light shows that it is connected, but it is not the battery. The only solution I found is to turn the power off, disconnect the battery and back again. Then everything works until the next time.

    Any ideas?

    [Edited by: admin April 23 05 18:07]

    Hello

    It is possible that there is a problem of electronic power supply. If the power supply microcontroller detects an error lamp DC IN sends a code flashing (8-bit error code). Can you please check it if the led blinks 8 times sending the code?

    You can try to contact the Service partner, explain the problem and I'm sure they can give you a clear explanation.

  • Problem of Satellite A200 - 28 p/battery charger

    Hello

    I had a power problem with my battery charger for a while sometimes it would charge when plugged in and others would not, so if I removed the charger to move the laptop it was a bet of 50 / 50 as to whether it would be instantly turn off or not.

    This was not too much a problem as the laptop is not moved too often, but I recently returned home to find my charger did not work at all and the cell phone was off.

    I managed to get hold of a replacement charger just to test it and I found that when it is plugged, flashing blue light which is usually strong watch the charger is plugged, and the times he has stayed solid and allowed me to boot up the laptop lasted almost a minute at best before shutting down completely not even enough time to get transfer important documents I have there.

    Is buying a new battery is going to fix this, or is the problem more likely to be something inside the laptop to be replaced?

    Hello

    I doubt that buy a new battery would solve your problem.
    Why?
    Because the laptop should also work correctly using only the AC adapter.
    So even if the battery is defective or dead, it should be possible to use the laptop connected to the network.

    The laptop has a number of other power resources, including a smart power battery clock real time and these resources are closely linked and one could affect apparent power problems.

    If the DC IN is blue, this means that the AC adapter is connected properly and the power supply correctly. If this is not the case, the adapter may be faulty or there is a problem with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.

    So in this case, the power adapter must be tested if you are sure that the adapter is working properly, then there must be a problem with the motherboard to 100%.

    Hello

    I have a Macbook Pro 13 "2011 with El Capitan (10.11.1) start installed.

    Some time ago I started to have problems with the device. KernelTask would go up to several hundred or even thousands would rise percent utilization of the CPU and fans. It seems to be a workaround, as described here:

    I quote from this thread:

    ' 1. go about this mac under the Apple in the top left and then click more information.

    2. click on the system report

    3. take note of what he said after the model identifier

    4. go in your master drive - system - library-Extensions - IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext - table of contents - Plugins - ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext - content - resources - find the name in step 3 and move it to a folder that you can find again if needed.

    3. reboot and you're done.

    I did this and the Macbook is still usable. But the fans are very high, the majority of the time and it's always a bit slow.

    I used a program to see the temperatures, the sensors detect. Everything seems normal except "proximity to battery charger": 127 ° C!

    Anyone know what this means and what we can do about it?

  • X120e Battery Charge problem

    Hello

    I bought my x120e about a month ago and it's been great since, but recently I had problems with the battery. When I charge the battery to 100% and then unplug the power adapter, the battery is fine for an hour or two, and load will decrease to a normal and regular rhythm (indicated by the percentage). However, when the battery is at 75-80%, then he jumps abruptly up to 10%, and I get a message that I have to charge the cell phone or turn it off. When I connect and start loading again, the battery charges at a normal speed of about 10 to 40%, but the same thing happens and it jumps up to 100%, saying it is fully charged. Generally, I would be happy with such a fast charge, but in this case the battery is not really full as soon, he dies suddenly after that I have unplug the adapter. Even if I let it continue loading at 100%, the same thing happens.

    So, I was wondering if I could do something to fix this on my own, or if I should send it just come back on the one year warranty. Please tell me if I did not know by describing the problem and thanks for any help/suggestions!

    I just wanted to post an update. I thought that my explanation of my problem of battery gave a negative perception of the ThinkPad x120e and lenovo in general, but I called the customer service of lenovo today and after 15 minutes, the representative has verified the problem (battery was indeed defective) and sent a new battery in my house. Overall, I am very satisfied, and I think that this problem of battery was only an isolated case. The battery is supposed to come in 2 days!

    You use the original Dell adapter for the model of this system? The adapter is frayed? The adapter stays in the company when it's plugged in or it falls easily?

    Reboot the system and press the f2 key to enter the BIOS - check the adapter status in the BIOS with and without the smart card. In addition, shake the plug of the adapter at the end and check if the status of the card changes at any time.

    Test with another adapter to power if possible.

    If the port is loose, then the DC port must be replaced otherwise, the adapter must be replaced.

If I push the blue ThinkVantage button, nothing happens. However, if I leave the T500 to start so that undocked, then place it on the docking station, it works fine with one exception...

    2. my battery does not load while on the docking station, but will charge when connected via its own power supply. I tried to do the reset of battery meter, but it did not do anything.

    Have I not the wrong dock? The seller assured me it was compatible. If it is not the right one, you know that I need?

    I have background App refresh disabled - the scale of the system. However, the Firefox application has managed to get a huge 8.6 hours of substantive activity App Refresh... and eat an important piece of my battery charge in the process. He has used more battery than the Safari app, even if I used just the Firefox App Firefox does NOT respect (and iOS is obviously not properly apply) the updating of the background App setting.

    Attached are two screenshots. The first is my screen background App update, which shows that I have background App refresh disabled in its entirety and the second, my main screen of the battery, which shows the excessive amount of the battery used by "Background App refresh." Firefox is a flagrant violation in the Protocol of the battery by the Firefox app... and unfortunately, iOS has allowed it to happen.

    I am very pleased to announce that the issue of excessive background use I had experienced with a previous version of Firefox for iOS is part of Firefox version 1.2! I now use the normal battery with little or no background activity. I am very pleased and I intend to continue to use Firefox on iOS regularly.
