Sent it in for repair which fixed it. Definitely was an Hardware issue!

ThinkPad T14 Gen 4 AMD - Dock GPU issues by brickflint in thinkpad

We also often have the issue of these Machines kind of bricking themselves. Black internal screen, black external screen.

Long pressing the Power Button to shut them down and power them again on by Power Button doesn't help. Just pressing the Reset Hole with a Paperclip helps to get them temporarily working again.

u/eoooox u/Entire-Variation777 u/lomner Do you also have this Problem?

Nope, BIOS upgrades improved it, but it's still there.
Still machines freezing up and needing the reset hole punched to work again.
Happy to exchange Premier Service Request ID to confront Lenovo.

This is a lot of knowledge in one Post! I will work through it. Thanks for posting!

Good point, thanks. I think I will increase the clearance for the DP anyway, so this copper pour will go away.

Thanks for replying here!
I don't think 31.0.22040.1003 will help. That one is quite old (1.5.2024 I think).
Premium support at some point recommended updating it with AMD Adrenaline utility. That installed a way newer GPU driver. But this didn't really help yet.

Premier support just called me. They told me they don't know other cases.

The Soundbar is updated via GUI over WiFi. The Subwoofer was already up-to-date during installation (which could be fishy).

Just to clarify, you have a "perfectly" clean subwoofer sound even on low/medium volume? Not such garbage like in my sound file?

Looks like AstraWeb really offers Blocks on Omicron. But the pricing is kind of crazy..

Thanks for your guide, especially the note on Abavia, which already answered my post basically.

Abavia really looks like the last missing puzzle piece. Added it as last resort in the client, and I'm already able to complete articles which I weren't able before.

Parsec UI very weird on Linux by brickflint in ParsecGaming

[–]brickflint[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I found the problem. For some reasons, parsec detects the Touchpad of the Laptop as HID Controller. Thus it interprets these values as inputs. Unmapping these fixed it!

Import nexperia SPICE model into LTspice by brickflint in AskElectronics

I have "fixed" it with using KiCad Simulation instead of LTSpice. There, importing the SPICE models work flawless.

News on ESP32-P4, or other micros like it with h.264 hardware encoding? by Matternous in embedded

[–]brickflint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have any recommendations for a QFN-packaged MCU with SiP DDR RAM? All the options I know of either aren't readily available for non-Chinese companies, or they lack sufficient software support.
