Lenovo Y 40 - battery doesnot - shows 100%, but dies when disconnected

Hi all

It seems that a lot of people have this problem as I browse this forum.

My Lenovo y40 is less than one year, so still on warranty. Recently (May 19) started having battery problems. It displays 100% charged, when it is plugged. But as soon as I unplug the charger, the battery empties quickly or turns off immediately.

Other times, the battery is to remain in office and will stay on for a few hours. It is very intermittent, it seems that the laptop has trouble reading the current battery level.

I have tried everything recommended on this forum, resettled pilots, reset the gauge from the battery through the Manager energy. What gives? The laptop is too new to have a defective battery and it was working perfectly until a few days ago.

Anyone else having this problem, I really need to use the warranty already? Argh...

  • When unplugged, battery still reads 100 percent, dies a few minutes

    Whenever my Y40 is unplugged, the computer shows the battery to 100% and never decreases. A few minutes later, the computer will turn off and will start. When I plug back in and turn it on, it shows the battery is very low and load normally, then shortly after showing 100% fully charged (it isn't). I tried the system restore and the following, which I saw posted in several places:

    "First of all, shut down the laptop, unplug the power adapter, remove the battery and then hold the Power button for 30 seconds.
    Now plug the power adapter without the battery inserted, start Notepad, open windows control panel, open Device Manager, expand the entry for batteries, click right on and the Microsoft ACPI compatible with battery control method and select uninstall - do not uninstall anything else here. When the uninstall is complete, shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter, reinsert the battery and then start the laptop's battery. Windows will automatically reinstall the driver - leave Windows running for a few minutes and see if the battery level decreases as it should. »

    I don't know where to go from here. I bought the computer last year and suddenly started questions recently. I recently installed Start Is Back, but the Advanced System Restore does not resolve the issue. I am running Windows 8.1 and everything seems to be up to date. Any advice?

  • Yet WT8 battery always shows 100%

    Battery in the bottom right of the screen icon always displays the battery to 100%, until the battery is discharged and the Tablet turns off. How can I fix it?

    Have you tried to calibrate the battery in the past?
    To calibrate the battery, you must first unload the battery until it s would be entirely empty. Then recharge it again until its full charge.
    This procedure should be repeated two, three times in the line

    But beware: the Tablet cannot be turned on by pressing the power button, if the battery is completely discharged. It s recommended to recharge the battery pack by connecting the power adapter for 30 min before switching on.

  • PALM TX will turn on and work with power cable plugged but not when disconnected?

    Hello all-

    I have a PALM TX, who bought in 2005. It worked fine but I changed my position and my last job stop supporting. That being said, I can use now and have recently it turned on and loaded schedule, etc. However, it does work when I plugged in the power cord. It works very well with the connection, no problems. That said, once disconnected from the power source it not light?

    I finished the soft reset several times. With reconnected to the power cord it works fine. However, it still not work with the power cord?

    I was reading online in various forums and it seems like it might be my power button?

    Does anyone else have this problem?

    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated that now I can use and really want to use it to its full capacity.

    Thank you!

    The connections of welding of switch on the motherboard have been a little weak on the TX line.

    It seems to me that the battery is dead.  The TX can also turn on by pressing the front buttons.  Try to press one of them and see if it lights.

    There are several online sites for repair and PDA batteries.  TX peut battery be user servicable, although it is a little intimidating for a novice.  If you Google 'Palm TX battery replacement', many hits will occur as well as how to videos!

  • SD300 takes wonderful pictures but dies when spent on reading.

    I have 2 sd300s.  The batteries are fine.  The memories are very good.  They can be swapped.  Both taking beautiful pictures.  The camera with the defect will die when the switch is made for reading.  It doesn't matter if not connected to a computer with the usb cable or not.  What is the solution?  Or can it be fixed?

    Yes now everything is what you have to decide if it's worth fixing depending on how much you like and that you are familiar with it and all the accessories you bought for her.

  • HR 2015: WebHelp research showing 100% completion, but no result

    Using RoboHelp 2015 (12.0.1.338) and see this problem in IE and Chrome. When I create and view my WebHelp output locally, its search feature works very well. However, when it has been verified in Microsoft Visual Studio (TFS) and then deployed on a Web site, search might work once or twice, but on the search for 2nd or 3rd, the search progress bar shows 100%, but no result appears and page crashes.

    Seems similar to that reported for RH9 in the discussion linked below, but I use a later version of HR, and I don't know that the fix RH9 applies. Anyone know what is happening?

    Problem with the last security update

    Ah,.

    Looks like WebHelp output has not been copied to the web server completely.

    File topictable_12_xml.js contains a part of the search database.

    Since the release works fine locally, this indicates a problem with the download server.

    You could just try to download 'topictable_12_xml.js' on the server '[1 piece of URL]/WebHelp/whxdata/topictable_12_xml.js' location and see if it succeeds.

    My battery status shows the service battery. I have reset the alert status about 6 months ago, but he will not be reset again. Thinking I need a new battery Apple!

    Batteries are no longer available on the Apple online store but can be at your nearest Apple Retail Store, you must check with your store. A better option is probably buy one yourself and replace it. Buy a quality like this http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple_laptop/batteries/MacBook_13_Unibody battery

    Avoid imitations cheap as those who are sold on auction sites.

  • How can I create a slide show 100% width, but have the caption in different positions for each slide.

    How can I create a slide show 100% width, but have the caption in different positions for each slide.

    There is placement of the legend only one for all the images in a slide show.

    The slideshow widget is specialized to create slideshows of the image. The widget of composition is a much more flexible widget which allows any combination of images and text in the trigger containers or containers of target of the widget. A widget of composition could be used to create a slide show with several legends by image and/or legends of different places for each image. The disadvantage of the widget of composition is that, due to the nature flexible widget, very little is automated for you and so it is much more intensive work to create a slideshow of images using the widget of composition.

If you turn off it charges the battery to 100%.

    If restore doesn't work or is not possible, you could try a Refresh Your PC to solve problems (Windows 8).

    Then you can try the following steps.

    The battery method compatible ACPI Microsoft control is basically the driver that communicates between the computer and the battery. There is a chance that it became corrupt and bad reads the battery level.

    Step 2. Select the stacks
    Step 3. Click with the right button on the "Microsoft compatible battery ACPI Control method" which is in the list
    Step 4. Click on uninstall
    Step 5. At the command prompt, put a checkmark in the box to remove the current driver
    Step 6. Shut down the computer

    When the computer returns to the top it should automatically find the driver.

    Step 8. Go to the Device Manager

    Hi all

    I got my blackberry z10 not too long ago, and initially, the battery was not serious. A full charge is 100%.

    Now, I'm having the problem of not to charge up to 100%. He shows me the icon of "lightning" up to about 84% to 91% where it stops and shows me the '=' sign as in fully charged or not charging.

    I tried to restart the device and even turned off while loading see that fixes the problem or not, but nothing helped.

    Someone here has the same experience? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    LEAVE it plugged into the wall charger (not USB > PC charger) for half an hour.

    With the charger plugged, remove the battey a minute then reinsert it.

    This will often reset the battery on the device reading to the actual battery charge.
