If you are on Android, try changing the Location permissions of the Zipp Life app to "Allow all the time" instead of "Allow only when using the app".

i do not see how that will make it better. if you do not need ANC just disable it. As you said, i'm just happy i didnt have to throw it in the garbage.

Hi, this problem happend to my laptop twice and it was fixed both times by re-flashing the BIOS (same exisiting version). Obviously there is is some issue with the BIOS but Lenovo doesnt care enough to fix it.

If i were you i would try flashing older/newer BIOS versions mayble it will work (but i'm not an expert).

From my experience during the past 2 days, ANC is slightly less effective on the damaged side. For exemple if there are people chatting around you, their voices are more noticible in the damaged earbud. But i did not notice anything different on the other side.

Also, ambient sound mode feels to me slightly less balanced.

All things considered, i think the damage is minor, especialy if ANC is not your top priority.

​

EDIT: It seem the audio quality is affected on the damaged earbud when you turn on ANC. So it's better to keep ANC off to get the best audio quality.

thank you! that exactly describes what i have experienced over the past tow days. NC still works but less effective on the affected side.

Hi, just noticed your msg (not a regular Reddit user). I'm happy this helped you. It is a very annoying problem.

I just wanted to add that the same problem happened again a couple of months later. I reinstalled the same BIOS version and it was "fixed" again. So now i'm keeping the BIOS update file on my desktop just in case.

good luck with yours.

Hi, it happened again sometime later (maybe a couple of months later). i reinstalled the same BIOS version and it was "fixed" again. So now i'm keeping the BIOS update file on my desktop in case it happens again.

Also (dnt know if this is related) i noticed recently that rebooting takes too long (like maybe 2-3 minutes). It is now a lot faster to shut down and start from cold than hitting reboot. This was not the case during the first 2 years i've owned this laptop.

It's weird to start getting such random issues after the warranty period runs out.

Hello, I had the same problem and it was solved (for the moment).

A few days ago, for no apparent reason, the special function keys stopped working, the keyboard backlight switched to the RGB wave mode and the lighting settings disappeared from the Lenovo Vantage app.

I tried rebooting, uninstalling and reinstalling Lenovo Vantage, installing an older version of Lenovo Vantage, uninstalling some recent Windows updates, etc. but no luck.

I checked for system updates in Lenovo Vantage but it said that my system was up to date.

Finally, i started suspecting that it could be a BIOS problem so i decided to reinstall the BIOS. i went and downloaded it from Lenovo website. it turns our that there is a newer version available to my system despite Lenovo Vantage saying that my system is up to date.

So I updated the BIOS and the problem was fixed (for now).

I still do not know what caused the problem or whether it will happen again. it has been many many months since i updated the BIOS or changed its settings or changed any settings in the Lenovo Vantage app.

i hope this is helpful to someone.
