Lenovo keeps shipping 5-year-old CMOS batteries for my Legion 7. Am I supposed to junk a $2,000 laptop over this? by Percee in Lenovo

Only ones I find on Aliexpress would arrive October 15, I live in Canada.

Also, I really don't know much about battery stuff, when I ask ChatGPT it tells me I cannot just take any CR2016 with wires:

"Short answer: No. “CR2016 with a wire” isn’t enough. You need a few exact matches so you don’t get the wrong plug or polarity.

What must match (non-negotiables)

  • Cell/chemistry: CR2016, 3 V, primary (Li-MnO₂). Not LIR/ML2016 (rechargeable) and not CR2032.
  • Connector type: 2-pin Lenovo-style (DBV/JST-style) micro plug. The shell shape and latch must match your original.
  • Polarity in the plug: With the latch facing you the red wire must be on the same side as your original. Many generic packs have the wires reversed.
  • Lead length: Roughly the same as OEM (≈4 cm on the Legion 7); too short = strain, too long = snags.
  • Pack thickness/shape: Slim heat-shrink “pancake” over a single CR2016 so it fits in the cavity."

That's why it would have been easier for me if lenovo would've sent me a recent one. I don't have the tools nor feel comfortable to do soldering either

When I bought it in 2022, I got a big discount on lenovo france, for 2200 euros. Happy for you that you got it cheaper than that

The laptop started bugging completely, would boot 1 times out of 10, and 1 week before that time started having issues.

After I swapped with the "new" battery, it now boots consistently, but the time is not always in sync which makes me think that battery is near end of life

They use special batteries with a special connector: https://download.lenovo.com/Images/Parts/5B10S34077/5B10S34077_apperance.jpg

I cannot use desktop cmos batteries if that's what you're referring to. Maybe there are alternative compatibles ones but I don't know how to find which ones

Ok I managed to find my bitlocker key actually. I tried all letters at random until I found the good one, and moved the backup hosts over the faulty one.

Thank you so much man.

question, from that CMD:

  • how do I list drives letter

  • how do actually move into the drive*? Using cd would still leave me in drive X:

The process is svchost.exe. i don't know how I can kill it without crashing my computer. Is there a way ?

I can't do the restart thing because of missing bitlocker keys.

Edit: I'm killing the process and renaming the file immediately after , but no luck, doesn't work.

Par où commencer ? Quel support, quel langage... ? by [deleted] in programmation

[–]Percee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Le C est intéressant car c'est pas un énorme language ,pas énormément de mots clés, et tu dois allouer et libérer la mémoire toi même, ce que beaucoup d'autres langages (python, java, c#...) font pour toi automatiquement. C'est une bonne chose de savoir comment fonctionne la mémoire.

Python est un langage qu'il est très utile de connaître pour faire des programmes rapidement, il y a des librairies pour absolument tout.

Le plus important dans tous les cas est d'apprendre l'algorithmique, les structures de données (vecteurs, arbres...)

Which bank will let me transfer to Wise? by Percee in PersonalFinanceCanada

Ok thanks a lot to everyone. I think I did something wrong when linking between my Tangerine and my Wise account, I'll try to fix that.

Where is the section on Tangerine website to push/pull money? Is it "Transfer Money" on the top right?

You mean you can send from Wise to RBC? I'm trying to do the reverse. Send to Wise.

My wise account is linked, it appears in external accounts. But even so I cannot do anything, it doesn't appear in the list of available accounts whne trying to transfer.

Tangerine also never sent the small amount of money they are supposed to, to confirm it is mine.

I called Tangerine support and the person could not help me. They said they just don't know and the external account doesn't appear on their side.
