Lenovo G400s optimize battery health auto turn off display

Hello

I rarely use my laptop outside the power adapter, so I decide to try the 'optimize battery health '.

To my surprise it drain the battery of 60% and he stopped there without discharge or charge, which is good.

But it has a few side effects, it turned off my screen every minute which is annoying, in my power Option, my screen is set to never turn when I plug in, I even try to define each presets/profiles of never turn off screen when the plug-in or battery, it helps not at all.

This could get really annoying when I read an article when my keyboard and mouse is not in use.

Thank you for your attention, the hope for a solution soon.

Details of the laptop:
Lenovo G400s

Core i5 - 3230 m

Windows 8

8 GB RAM

128 GB SSD

1 TB HARD DRIVE

All the drivers/software updated

Energy management: high power Performance management, optimize the battery, drive energy-saving hard.

p/s: Please let me know if need more information, I will provide as much as possible to fix this.

Okay, my bad, it was my stupid screen saver settings that enable the return to the logon screen after 1 minute.

He was supposed to turn off when I set to (none) but I guess that I was wrong, in any case, this has been solved by "human error."

  • Random restarts when 60% or less of battery, the phone turns off when fully charged

    Hello!

    I need help! I used my new Sony Xperia Z3C for 4 days now. It came with the update of the lollipop.

    Everything worked very well when I opened it, but not for long. It began to restart more frequently and whatever it may be, home button, typing a PIN code screen lock, using any application or will it mark the beginning just as it is in stand by! Crazy.

    After that the frustration I was hoping that it was a software issue because I can solve. I started with the PC Companion and after that the same update. OK, I thought that the version is the problem. I went with the old versions of the firmware of the lollipop. Again, same thing, after some time of phone use start to restart uncontrolably. Very well, very well, I thought good Lollipop is the problem, I need to go with Kit Kat. I did this and after successful startup and app instalation, account record and everything, guess what. RESET!

    Then I noticed the strangest thing, when I'm in charge the phone, it works like a charm, and when it is almost full. When we empty the battery from 60 percent level it started to reboot again, and this happens every time. When I load it again it works fine until that 60% again. Another odd thing, is that the phone is turned OFF completely when he is at 100% load.

    Can I fix at home?

    See you soon,.

  • How auto turn off the screen of the laptop when you use the external monitor?

    I don't wan turn on laptop screen and my external monitor at the same time. So is it possible to do automatic screen of my laptop to turn off as soon as I plug my external monitor to my laptop vga cable (without pressing Fn + F2 keys)?

    Please help me.

    Thank you.

    I don't know if it's possible, but you could try to go into display settings and set an external because it is main if possible display and then disable the laptop with Fn + F2 but idk if it will remain inactive if you portable computer power, then on again :/

    Update: how to do this, right-click on the screen area and select the screen resolution while having the connected external display then of you will find a drop down a 3rd or a 4th do not remember but inside, you'll find stuff like show desktop on the screen 1 or 2 to find out what your external display screen number is and apply it to this form then computer laptop screen should turn black as it is turned off and you will see desktop area is on external display so I hope that this has resolved your request.

  • The Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000 has a power button or an auto-turn off function when you use it,

    I am interested in buying one for use on a desktop PC, then the transmitter/receiver must be connected all the time...

    Mouse Wireless a usually - ON / OFF switch or the automatic stop function.

    And because this mouse is not to have ON / OFF switch, so it must have auto power-off function - and this function is independent of the question whether the radio is placed in the mouse, or even on your computer (plugged) attached.

    And sometimes - if the mouse goes into power saving mode - you must first press the button of the mouse to wake up.

  • Turn off display when you use the external monitor R61?

    Hello

    I have a ThinkPad R61, which I use with an external monitor.  Somehow, I had in place for months with the laptop out of the screen and the monitor on.  I've used today at a meeting to feed a projector, selected somehow dieting Fn F7 of presentation such as the screen and the projector are-as I wanted - then home, re-installed with my external monitor and cannot find out how to turn off the display on the laptop.  The selections under Fn F7 do not allow this combination.  I tried the trick you offered, Fn F3 to turn off the display, but it turned out the two views.  (Now, how can I reverse this setting?)

    It sounds like a requirement of switching every day, but I can't find a clue in aid of ThinkVantage, manual mini, on the website, etc.  Thank you

    WaynO salvation,

    After pressing Fn + F7, click on manage plans... to open the Director presentation window. Then click the new... button. You should be able to put in place a system to only display on the external monitor. After setting up, make sure to check the box in the column Menu Fn + F7 to have your new schema appears in the menu when you press Fn + F7.

  • Is turn off display in the power settings is going to make me a little download speed

    Hello

    So, I'll have to download 30 GB of updates for a game and I want to take less time as possible. I was wondering if the display disappears will help. Is there another way to speed up the download?

    Thank you.

    No, turn off your screen won't help.  The best way to get faster downloads is to contact your internet service provider.  It is the bottleneck of your connection speed.

    In addition, limit that uses your Internet connection.  For example, do not play video games or watch Netflix in the lounge while you download on your PC online.
