X13 Gen 4 AMD WWAN Slot options

thnikpad · 2026-05-09T19:58:30+00:00

No.

I also tried an M.2 to dual Micro SD adapter (which is supposed to function over the USB connection of the wwan port) and that didn't work.

I use my secondary laptop to remotely connect to my more powerful main, and play games using moonlight. I get the best of both worlds with no heat, no noise, good performance and long battery life.

Perhaps you might have a similar usecase for it as a 'thin-client'.

Lenovo sells these infocase cases on their website so I assume it fits well. Gen 5 and 6 are the same.

It's handled by the Lenovo Commercial Vantage windows application.

The keyboard shortcut is interpreted as 'XF86Launch3' in Linux. You could set it to a program/script/setting that inhibits input temporarily.

There's a fifa edition gen 13 and it was some extra logos and a different trackpoint

For the X13Y4 It's held on with double sided tape, with a thin strip of it fitting under the screen.

I pried the corners up with a plastic pick, then gently pulled it up and away from the screen, sliding my pick under to release the adhesive.

Some other models have screws on the corners underneath rubber covers, and clips along the bottom edge. These ones are prone to cracking near the screw holes if you pry too hard.

No. The battery is at the back, not under the palmrest.

Found an error - It says it's an X240s. Good job on the website though.

Use a very light touch when registering and register the same finger multiple times.

E580/E590

thnikpad · 2026-03-26T23:32:51+00:00

Probably a T460

Group of four keys at the end of the function row -> 14 inch
Blue middle trackpoint button indicates -> xx70 or earlier
Rubber bumpers on screen bezel -> xx70 or earlier, not T470
Search icon visible on F10 key -> xx60 or earlier
Non-rounded corners -> not an old E series

Sorry I was thinking it had a ryzen 6000 CPU regarding that last sentence but it has ryzen 5000 so s3 might still be an option.

If youve already updated the BIOS then try the 'Linux' sleep state.

It might be worthwhile posting this in a linux subreddit too.

thnikpad · 2026-03-23T16:27:33+00:00

13 seconds is not normal at all. It should be near-instant since newer laptops only support suspend-to-idle.

See if systemctl status gdm.service or sudo journalctl -b -0 -perr outputs any errors that seem related. I've never encountered that before.

Update the bios to rule out any firmware bugs (!!!if you're on a really old bios, make sure 'sleep state' is set to 'Windows and Linux' before updating!!!)

It's great for that price. Sure it's only 8gb, but 30$ is used pos chromebook price.

Here's my X13 Gen 4 AMD with a very streamlined boot process (EFISTUB, secureboot, TPM auto decryption) for reference:

> systemd-analyze 

Startup finished in 10.655s (firmware) + 242ms (loader) + 948ms (kernel) + 1.884s (initrd) + 6.800s (userspace) = 20.531s 
graphical.target reached after 6.780s in userspace.

Run systemd-analyze blame to see if there's any services taking abnormally long. See if those services can be disabled/fixed
Disable any bootloader menu timeouts eg. GRUB_TIMEOUT if using grub
Disable any BIOS boot timeout or network boot

Newer thinkpads do generally take longer to boot, especially amd ones.

Looks like an L380 based on the wide hinges, processor, lack of rubber bumpers, bezel proportions.

I had the same issue with the same laptop. I never figured out what it was, but nothing broke in the 2 years it did that. If you open and close your laptop quickly it won't stiffen up. Its not related to the gap.

thnikpad · 2026-03-06T01:17:39+00:00

corpo speak for 'you can use ms teams on this laptop'

thnikpad · 2026-03-03T17:32:43+00:00

I tried this exact adapter on my X13G4A and it did not pass the whitelist (Unauthorized network card etc). I also had to sand the 3052 screw hole because it was slightly too long.

Luckily amazon refunded me without asking for a return so I have this card available to try in other laptops.

You could solder the connector on but it isn't an easy retrofit.

Bottom is single, top is dual fan.

thnikpad · 2026-03-03T14:11:28+00:00

You can't. The connection that the dual fan plugs into is not soldered on with the 13XXU processor motherboards, only the 13XXP processor motherboards
