I have a X61 kit with a xiphmont TLD2 (300 mA output) board. Would you be interested in that?

According to 51nb the KD122N5-A6 is compatible. Maybe it is just a glossy version of the screen. I do not know. And there is nothing plug and play about this mod. https://forum.51nb.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1805671&highlight=x201 You have to cut the LVDS lanes, solder several SMD parts to co...

KD122N4-30NH-B2 is the lcd you need.

I tried the mod, had it working, somehow broke the electronics of the screen when I redid my adapter cable. Then gave up.

X201 only used WXGA LED screens. Anything else is a mod.

You can use LG Display LP121WX3 (TL)(C1) or AU Optronics B121EW09. Both are plug & play.

I have the X200 sub card schematic. But I do not know if the x201 is exactly the same.

Unfortunately nothing can compare to Montys kits, especially the daylight kits for AFFS screens. There are (plug & play) chinese kits which ar good enough for the TN XGA screens from iccfl or xccfl. http://www.xccfl.com/product_info.php?cPath=37&products_id=4726 But these have PWM flickering visible...

It is not the cheapest, but this one will fit. I have bought 2 of the FHD screens there and very happy with what I got.

Most likely your bluetooth module is broken then.
If you buy a new one, X61 also works with the bluetooth 4.0 modules from the x230. Although you need the Middleton Bios for that.

Try this:
install tpfc v 062 https://thinkwiki.de/TPFanControl belongs on a X61 anyway
right click on the temperature icon that shows up in the task bar
second menu item is for switching bluetooth

For that screen you will need the same adapter cable and mod procedure as with the SXGA+ screen.
The pinout and the cutting work on the frame are the same.

There is good information on the fans in this post: https://forum.thinkpads.com//viewtopic.php?t=115785#p744267 I recently bought the good 61s fan here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/80-and-100-working-CPU-cooling-fan-IBM-Thinkpad-X60s-X61s-X60T-X61T-Heatsin/282226529377?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_tr...

I have had 11 -101 screens pass through my hands. And I remember seeing the retro-tv effect several times over the years. No theories as to the cause. Here is a picture from the german forum of a T60 with a very similar effect: https://imgur.com/qej2GWS Cause unknown, and it went away after several ...

Thanks, but I do have lots of dark gray test images.

I can say that the retro-tv effect can get better by time. Takes several months.

I always thought the effect was due to static electricity in the layers of the screen. But that was simly guessing.

I tweaked it the other direction and the problem disappeared. By how much did you turn it? Tried it on a screen without the retro-tv effect with no visible effect. I have two screens with darker left side edge and corners. But I cannot imagine how I could have managed to change the adjustment of VR...

Is WWAN enabled in the BIOS?
Under Security / IO Pot Access.

The left side is even worse. You will have problems with interference because of the cable lenght. Probably a working cable will turn out to be too thick for a X61.

I do not think a USB C socket will work. The devices will expect a USB C controller to negotiate what the socket can do.

all I need to add is a USB3.0 socket:

That is not easily done. The USB 3.0 socket is nearly 3mm deeper than the USB 2.0 socket.
If you cut out a piece of the motherboard on one of the right 2 USB sockets to make the USB 3.0 fit, you will lose the 5V power supply of the socket.

The Expresscard housing is from a X200.

Power from the WWAN slot is good for one USB 3.0 HDD.

I have USB 3.0 in my X61 via Expresscard. You have to remove the PCMCIA slot and connect an Expresscard slot to the PCIe, USB 2.0 and power lanes of the WWAN slot.

Just saw this on aliexpress: https://imgur.com/LOtQGMr

The DUPONT DISLAY ENHANCEMENTS (= DuPont Vertak direct-bonding adhesive) sticker belongs on a -101 screen, never on a -100.
So on this screen at least the -100 sticker is fake.

You should have this driver installed: Wireless WAN (Vodafone and Cingular - HSDPA) driver from here: https://thinkpads.com/support/Thinkpad-Drivers/download.lenovo.com/lenovo/content/ddfm/X61.html Then use the Sierra 3G Watcher for the connection.

I thought only the HV121P01-101 had the sticky goo (with the bubbles), and the HV121P01-100 and XGAs had edge bonding/tape?

That is correct. There are no XGA with direct-bonding.

I have one of Montys Nichia daylight strips in my X201 now. Very happy with the result. Screen is a Samsung LTN121W4-L01 PVA from the HP tablet PCs. It is a screen with LED backlight, but only 187 nits bright, and the colors are not really good with that backlight. I had to mount the panel on a modi...

Good to hear you got your machine unbricked.
You don't remember which BIOS settings change was responsible?

Think that's the case here, where the 51nb guys didn't install it because they didn't feel it was necessary? In Thinkpads fan control is done by the firmware on the embedded controller. I also believe that the thinkpad_acpi module will not load without that EC present. There will be good legal reas...

X62 Tablet by el-sahef with working tablet buttons and wacom digitizer.
Link to german thread. Large pic warning!
Wacom rotation is unresolved, and that machine desperately needs a daylight LED kit.

It is so nice to read about the X62 without the garbled translations from chinese. Thank you. but meanwhile let me know if you'd like to know anything specific! Battery runtime. More details on the fan. andykrej wrote that TPfancontrol does not work. What sensors does the motherboard have? There are...

Thank you nightfighter.
Two X201 thinklights repaired with your method.

Yes, you have to be very careful with any kind of liquid on the screen. I use a piece of cloth smaller than the screen surface. Only this cloth is soaked with the solvent, and then covered with a piece aluminum foil to prevent the solvent from rapidly vaporising. After 10 to 20 minutes some glue can...
