I'm curious if anyone knows whether the P14S Gen 6 AMD (or either T14 Gen 6) has a WWAN whitelist. I can't find any info on this. Further, Lenovo seems to limit the Ryzen 9 370 HX and not allow you to configure it (21RV) with WWAN. With that said, I don't see any reason that one couldn't just swap o...

Totally forgot to reply to this - but it does work!

You don't even need to flash the T470 EC for the 7-row to work, it has the necessary matrix in-memory already. The T480 requires a flash via JTAG.

I just saw in the Thinkpad P1 gen 6's spec document https://psref.lenovo.com/syspool/Sys/PDF/ThinkPad/ThinkPad_P1_Gen_6/ThinkPad_P1_Gen_6_Spec.pdf page 3 says "• M.2 2280 SSD up to 8TB, 4TB each " and "up to 4TB M.2 2280 SSD". So it seems unbelievably the firmware crippling has continued to P1 gen ...

Probably not... I unfortunately am hung up on having a trackpoint, and for work, I do actually need ISV certification. I've been looking at some Dell Precisions, but they honestly don't seem much better.

It died. Again. Completely dead this time - 0 signs of life, no lights when plugged into charger, nothing. I am beyond infuriated with this thing. Back to the old P52... which kicked right to life the moment I dragged it out of the box its spent the last few months in.

The P5x does not whitelist panels, I'm not sure why the P7x would.

Still available, and can you ship?

Sounds like it may be trying to "learn" the memory config/timings? Let it sit "powered on" for a little while and see what happens. My P53 and P1 Gen 5 both went through this process, and if you've recently unplugged the CMOS battery, that could have something to do with it. Definitely do not try to...

I'd be interested in the 701s, what sort of shape are they in? Pics would be great, the plastics on those tend to disintegrate and the coatings go sticky.

The parts are completely different, the magnesium castings are not the same. The antennas are in the corner under either palmrest, and on the WWAN version, those segments are plastic, and the antennas go on top of them. The antennas are a separate part, but you cannot install them onto a non-WWAN C-...

So... Windows has finally become annoying enough that it has convinced me to jump ship to Linux in the near future. I'm preparing to make that move, and had a few (admittedly uninformed) questions about it. I do a lot of CAD work, need my nVidia GPU to behave, and would like something stable, so RHE...

Ill get my P52 out this weekend and try this, but that looks promising. Thanks for figuring it out!

fwiw the AMD X5 isn't that hard to swap in, I've desoldered the Intel chip and dropped in an X5 on 2 mobos without issue

Why keep the screens? Great modern 16:10 LCDs are available, just carry the keyboards over, use newer batteries (from the T480 or P52 maybe), and do the rest from scratch, wouldn't be any more work, and parts availability would be a whole lot easier.

The roll cage is probably one of the lights parts in a T6x machine, its magnesium alloy and incredibly spindly. Honestly, your biggest single-item weight pieces are probably your battery, your LCD, and then all of the plastic case pieces. The lid is also Mg and shouldn't be too heavy. That and all t...

Can we get closeup pics of the crack in the LCD bezel and the residue on the lower left of the palmrest?

I quite like it, save for the QC issues (see my thread in the P-series forum). Beyond that, its light, its fast, its decently rigid (nowhere near as monolithic as the P52, but its solid), and it gets decent battery life. I'm enjoying it, and the cooling system is seriously impressive, and its the fi...

Only fix I've found that works so far is resetting the trackpad settings after every restart (in the Windows setting menu). That, for some reason, fixes it. No idea why, haven't bothered to try to automate it yet since I'm dailying the P1 Gen 5 now.

I think I have 2 or 3 3612QE boards in storage, if I'll check this week and get back to you.

I'd be interested, how much are you looking to get for it?

I'm tempted at this point, if it fails again I am bringing it up. Knock on wood, I've had it back for about a week and a half, and no issues so far.

Dead motherboard. Again. Drive is fine, slow reads was on my caddy. Off to depot AGAIN.

The failure saga continues... the latest culprit? SSD died. Machine won't recognize the drive (NVME recognition error on boot). If you clear CMOS you can make it see the drive, but it reads incredibly slowly. Windows will start, but usually BSOD right after sign-in. Had to throw it into an external ...

Checking if it shows up in the UEFI diagnostics menu would be another good idea regardless of model.

There's 2 channels, 1 slot in each location is allocated to each channel. From memory it doesn't really matter, just follow the usual rule of keep your timings matched, try and keep capacities across channels the same, etc.

Can you ship to the United States?

Same, not sure what ended up happening here, but I remain interested in these ultrabay modules.

So far so good...
