Hi everyone, I own a Lenovo Miix 320, a super light tablet with removable keyboard windows running Windows 10. I really like it because of its long battery life and lightweight design, which makes it great for travel. After some modifications to my Windows 10 setup, it runs smoothly and lasts about three days on a single charge. It's perfect for blogging. My main issue now is the detachable keyboard isn't working consistently—it sometimes connects and sometimes doesn't. Do anyone know how to make it more stable or possibly solder the keyboard directly to the tablet? Or is there a way to use a different connector that skips the pin connector so I can glue the ribbon directly from the tablet to the keyboard? Apologies for the unclear English—I'm still learning, so grammar is a bit tricky.
Use 90%+ isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush to clean the contact points. It seems like a small oxidation layer is forming. If that doesn’t resolve the problem, other solutions you mentioned are likely to fail completely. These devices were designed to last a few years, but this issue is common with budget models built for short-term use. After six years and heavy use, wear and tear is expected. For laptops—especially dockable ones—it’s normal to see this kind of degradation. If cleaning doesn’t help, continue using it until it stops working. A ribbon bypass isn’t feasible and soldering won’t fix a poor connection.
