4 years ago Today I noticed that the suggested wrong T460s update for a T460p is gone, but it does not show any real updates for a T460p either:

No upgrades for System Firmware, current is 0.2.11: 0.1.45=older, 0.1.44=older, 0.1.43=older, 0.1.42=older, 0.1.41=older
No releases found for device: no HWIDs matched 90706264-e399-575b-a9fb-077ead03b9b4Of course I did a refresh. The firmware 176.12.1008 is several years old, I would expect to get a more recent firmware such as the 184.65.3590 for the T460s that was wrongly offered.

4 years ago Is there any update on this?
fwupd still says System Firmware has the latest available firmware version, although I have 0.2.11 installed and 0.2.30 is available on LVFS.
When I run get-updates -v, it mentions firmware versions 0.1.43 to 0.1.47, so it seems that the cause is that it still detects my T460p as a T460s and considers only firmware updates for the T460s.
I tried to install 0.2.30 manually from LVFS with install-blob, and during reboot got some messages about firmware updating, but after reboot I am still stuck with 0.2.11.

3 years ago Indeed, and this solved the problem. I upgraded the UEFI firmware of my T460p from version 2.11 to 2.30 under Windows, and then fwupd correctly offered me version 2.31. Installing this with fwupd worked fine. Now I guess I just have to wait until 2.32 (already available on the Lenovo website) appears on LVFS.
Thank you for your help!
I think this issue can now be closed.

3 years ago thank you very much @PhilippWendler ... closing the issue ^_^
Fwupd confuses Thinkpad T460p with T460s and offers wrong updates, even though the T460p firmware is available in LVFS (currently 2.28).
