X240: cannot change EDID. Intel's own EDID Registry override does NOT work.
I'm looking for a specific Registry entry in a W7 installation (not W10).
This entry is only applicable to 12.5" IPS FHD (1920x1080) screens such as used in X240/X250, but also in X220/X230 with nitrocaster's FHD-mod.
Using regedit.exe go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\DISPLAY
Then please check if you have this entry there: LEN40E4.
When found, please rightclick on DISPLAY and then on Export and save it as e.g. display.txt (NOT as a .reg file to avoid complications).
Exit regedit.
Could you then please copy/paste the full content of that file here?
And also tell which X2x0 machine and if your Brightness-control works?
Much obliged!
The above is probably only for Lenovo-supplied screens, such as LP125WF2-SPB2, -SPB3 and -SPB4, that also have a FRU-number.
Other screens (not originally from Lenovo) have DISPLAY entries such as:
LGD0449 (e.g. LP125WF2-SPB3 from win0win)
LGD048A (e.g. LP125WF2-SPB4 from win0win)
Don't need those.

Re: Wanted: W7 Registry entry for Display 12.5" FHD *LEN40E4*
I was actually after the EDID for that screen.
In the meantime I think I got it from W10.
If someone else wants it:
I'll work on the above and try to supply the matching W7-code later.

Re: Wanted: W7 Registry entry for Display 12.5" FHD *LEN40E4*
HELP!!!
I can't get Brightness Control working on an X240 with W7-Pro 64-bit.
OSD Volume up/down is working and showing.
Intel chipset, power management + driver, Hotkey, Intel graphics drivers are all installed.
I have tried every Registry trick in the book (and many that are NOT in any book, such as Run-as-System).
Used EDID-overrides, and what not, nothing works!
(Except under Linux it works!)
The LCD is a new FHD LP125WF2-SPB3, bought from eBayer win0win.
Suggestions, pretty please!

Re: Wanted: W7 Registry entry for Display 12.5" FHD *LEN40E4*
I think Intel implemented the EDID override on a newer version for the T450 models, some info on this thread:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads ... 01/page-22
Not sure if the EDID would make the brightness work.

Thanks for the link!
I went a lot deeper and finally stumbled upon this unicorn gem: an Intel® Graphics Test Driver that bypasses EDID!
There are also newer versions, as mentioned in my above link.
To give you an idea (and more links), see this Intel-post

It'll be a few weeks before I get a chance to test this, but it's nice that Intel finally slaps Lenovo/HP/Dell etc. about their ridiculous LCD whitelists!Bryce@Intel wrote:Re: Feature Request - implement EDID override

Great news! This completes the platform support. These drivers enable the use of 3rd party EDID applications for internal and external panels on Intel platforms.

The same evil Intel who just last week was spying on us via its evil MINIX in the Manageability Engine!

Do let us know how your investigation turns out. It may become an important milestone for future modders.

Re: Was LF: EDID Registry entry, FOUND: Intel's own EDID override!!!!
hmm, would this work for you ?
http://www.codeground.net/howto/overrid ... -registry/
this should override edid with the normal driver.

Oh , I thought there was no such thing as LCDs whitelist for x240, only for x250 and above.RealBlackStuff wrote: ↑Sun Dec 03, 2017 2:33 pmI can't get Brightness Control working on an X240 with W7-Pro 64-bit.

Already ordered x240 + non FRU 13.3 AUO FHD. And now worry a bit about possible Brightness Control issues.

Bit late, but the Intel EDID-override did NOT work on my X240 (with X240s motherboard).

Re: X240: was LF EDID Registry entry, FOUND: Intel's own EDID override!!!!
I have tried every EDID program (Windows or Linux) that I could find.
None of them worked.
Only yesterday did I discover that I may have the wrong LCD-cable 0C46006.
That cable is nowhere listed or described.
So now I have ordered a 00HM134 and hope that will solve my problem.
Will let you know.

There is solution for this problem? Cause many x240 swapped on FHD lcd panel the brightness hotkey (Fn+F5/F6) not working
Thanks before dear.....

Unfortunately that 00HM134 still did not solve the problem.
But it does work under Linux.
I tried Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon "Sarah", but will try "Sylvia" next, should also be OK.
Methinks the time has come to start saying Good Bye to Windows.
I was already planning that anyway...
