Latest "find": https://github.com/ASparkOfFire/lenovo-u1-tool thanks for this post this is quite an old version (2015, v1.08) and doesn't work for my ThinkPad P14s gen 2 (2021). I've tried the v1.11 and still could not change the "name" to ThinkPad P14s Gen 2 so am getting error 2202 It works for a...

Don't know if you're still up on this, but it's been done https://spawn.link/posts/2019-02-18_-_lenovo_x1_tablet_keyboard/ I'm in the middle of doing this myself to a couple of clearance X1 tablet gen 3 keyboards I bought on pcsupport.lenovo.com for £13 each shipped. I was looking for an off the sh...

Oopsie, they are BOE Hydis HV150UX2-100 15" LED UXGA brand new and still factory sealed. I got 10 LCDs left, still sealed. btw: HV150UX2-100 and HV150UX2-101 are the same, it's just production batch 0 and 1. These are the famous Flexviews with LED Backlighting, (originally for the Boeing 787 Dreaml...

I have 2 but both are dead flat and would need re-celling (including the brand new one I bought). The laptop is 18 years old at this point - old enough to drink in some states

if someone sells you a brand new one be ready for it to be dead (almost 100% guaranteed)

What did you end up doing with them? I had 1 that I used in a new-old-stock build of the X61s from parts that's sat on my display shelf next to my T60p

What happened with this X61 please?

Bit late to reply but it's still in its box in my office Like I said in the OP I made one brand new from new-old-stock parts so that's my display model

One thing I sadly have to add: This screen has really awful PWM dimming. This was never an issue with my original FHD panel. Others may not be as sensitive to it, as you can not consciously see it. I sadly get eye strain super quickly from this screen. Currently experimenting with Blue Light Filter...

snip Dunno if anyone has done what i am trying to attempt before. Basically, need to somehow trick the tablet into thinking a keyboard is attached, so i can activate and use the USB port on the bottom of the tablet (6 pogo pins) without an external power supply on the USB port i'll be adding. Don't...

Thank you so much very very helpful! I didn't know about the edp cables. So, after I read this comment, I successfully replaced my T14s G3, sad looking TOUCH 47% NTSC 1920 300nit BOE panel to 2240x1400 non-touch 100% sRGB Panel. This was my first time replacing any LCD panels so I ordered the panel...

I don't get what you're asking for here You only need the 40 pin QHD/UHD cable if you plan to drive a panel with those resolutions. The T480 series only came with a 0.5mm "standard pitch" 40 pin so you'll only be able to drive 0.5mm pitch panels (most before 2020) unless you are very good at solderi...

sup Edmonton used to live there, lots of family there, still love it and hate it (but it's a good place to live especially this time of year) to answer your Q: the 980 Pro doesn't get that hot at PCIe 3.0 speeds that the T14 gen 2 will run at (artificially gimped by lenovo - the CPU has native PCIe ...

I think you bought the wrong screen, you must buy the original Lenovo screen, that is, the screen with the FRU number, Lenovo will encrypt its screen, if it is not the original screen, the notebook will not recognize it or appear some strange question. incorrect. Whitelists for panels ended with th...

I still get an error "2203: system configuration is invalid" every time the system starts up from cold boot, modern shut down, or waking up from hibernation. I have no idea how to fix this... Maybe the panel EDID's (or equivalent) is damaged. Or maybe there is a display panel whitelist in the BIOS....

Open it up, disconnect the battery, hit the power button for a few seconds, and re-attach the battery. That should drain the capacitors and reset the system. If it doesn't power on after that, send it to warranty. Also, my X1C4 has a small hole in the base to reset the BIOS to factory defaults. Doe...

been a while since the last post but I'll add my 2 cents anyway

imho buy the SXGA+ BOE hydis panel and do the mod - it will end up costing about the same as the XGA panel and is AFFS (similar to IPS) rather than one of the worst crimes against humanity of a TN panel you will ever come across

Hi Guys,

Snip

That should be it.

You did a fantastic job on this

Happy to have played a small part

Enjoy your new and improved T480!

Hey Rob almost any modern eDP panel will work in your machine. You just need the correct cable, and a panel with the correct dimensions for your lid. A good starting place is to find the dimensions of your existing panel and go from there. Keep in mind that some physically larger (slightly thicker, ...

Update: after I first tried this on my P14s gen 2 (identical to T14 gen 2) motherboard, I tried it on my T15 gen 2 motherboard. On the T14 gen 2 it always looks like the striped image. It works on the T15 gen 2 motherboard, but if I go on 'standby' then reopen the laptop it again looks like the stri...

Bad power supply? Bad USB C port? Thanks for your reply I've tried several Lenovo usb c 65W chargers on several plugs around my house and no difference Either usb c port seems to charge the battery, as it reads as 100% when plugged into my other laptop. If anything I don't think it's the charge cir...

After not using my T15 gen 2 for a few weeks I finally tried to turn it back on. I tried plugging in the laptop in case it was a dead battery, but even after a few hours on charge it did not power on. I've tried the 'reset' button on the bottom of the laptop (with and without the battery and CMOS ba...

Hi all. I'm trying to do some problem solving... I bought my father a 15.6" UHD panel upgrade (AUO B156ZAN04.1) to replace the original FHD panel in his T15 gen 2. I bought a compatible 40-pin eDP UHD cable (narrow 0.4mm pitch) and connected the panel and board photos: https://imgur.com/a/Ln1YZGY On...

The eDP cable I ordere form China came surprisingly quickly and last night I did some testing with the 4K screen I bought form eBay Germany. A teaser for now , proper thread with more pictures and full story to follow after I finish placing the panel in T480 lid. congrats! which panel did you go for?

You're better off buying a usb c pd to barrel adapter nowadays. I made my mod when zypds boards were still fairly new. No good reason to do the mod now unless you have multiple sites you will take your laptop to where there are already usb c chargers Any suggestions as to where to snag one of these...

I really want to know if I need to put resistor if I still use the original barrel Jack receptacle on my T400 chassis and made USB type-C dongle instead, since I gonna use the OG charger when I'm home and use the type-C charger when I travelling. Any answer will be appreciated! You're better off bu...

No no no, it has a very different pinout and can fry your panel Get the 40 pin "QHD+" cable for QHD and UHD screens on the T480, and note that the T480s cable is incompatible with the T480 and vice versa. I mean it could work but the length will be different and it might not physically reach @Natak...

Hey there, I blew my T480s backlight fuse on trying a WQHD upgrade (yeah I'm an idiot...) Could anyone show me a picture or give hints about the fuse location? Do I need to take the whole motherboard out of the case or can I check the fuse leaving the board where it is? Thank you. sandreas How did ...

Glad I could help! Keep tinkering and be sure to pay it forward (post your results, guides, etc.) on here especially but also the various other thinkpad forums PS Good choice on the panel! I'm currently looking for the 4K 500nit HDR matte (100% adobe RGB) from the new T14 gen 2, but nobody has publ...

Right so I actually reconsidered - I went for the WQHD panel that is matte LP140QH2-SPB1, it is not as bright as the HDR panel but it is not glossy and that would really defeat the purpose. After reading the review on notebookcheck it was really evident to me that I would not like the glossy panel ...

from personal experience, it's incredibly hard to resell a panel. Buy with the intention of keeping, and consider that if you can resell it you'll probably lose half of the value you paid

Ps I wouldn't trust that you're getting the B140qan02.0 as this seller has multiple model numbers from different manufacturers listed
