Backlit keyboard for non backlit laptop

Hey! I have HP Notebook - 15-r204tx laptop.I want to replace its keyboard with backlit (glowing) keyboard. Can you help?how much will it costs?
Where can I get that keyboard ? PRODUCT NAME : HP Notebook - 15-r204txPRODUCT ID : K8U04PA#ACJ

The Manual is not currently available for download. However, on most models that come with a non-backlit keyboard there is no way to install a backlit one. The ability to have a backlit keyboard must be designed into the motherboard.

Hi,
Keyboard alone won't light up, you need power from motherboard that means you may need a new motherboard too. Please check the following link to find compatible parts:

Backlit keyboard for dv7t-4100?

I need to replace the keyboard in my Pavilion dv7t-4100. Is it possible to install a backlit keyboard, i.e. is the backlight connector present on the motherboard on this model? If so, what is the part number for the backlit keyboard? I've heard of people installing backlit keyboards intended for other models.

Satellite L650-1M0: replacement of default standard keyboard for backlit keyboard

Hello,
Can a laptop Toshiba L650-1M0 can replace the default standard keyboard for backlit keyboard?
Sorry for my bad english, but I used the Google translator because I do not know how the English language. I only know the Polish ;)
Please write without mistakes, because Google translator will not be able to translate me.

Hm ... I do not know how to check if the laptop has an additional connector on the backlight.
Is there any other way to check if there is connector, in addition to disassemble the laptop?
Maybe someone knows how to look inside a laptop?
The *Toshiba Satellite U500* someone was able to replace the backlit keyboard.

I have a laptop of the same series (*Satellite*). It may be that they are very similar build and that also have a connector.

UltraNav version for non-IBM clone PC to run IBM Travel PS/2 Keyboard, 89P8500, SK-8840?

My beloved IBM T42, circa 2005, has been retired from work duties and soldiers on in limited duty at home. I have recently attempted to re-create the well-designed keyboard, particularly the Synaptics touchpad and the TrackPoint, for my office PC, which is a clone (but with 'name-brand' internals, an Intel motherboard and processor, Kingston RAM, OCZ SSD) running 64-bit Windows 7 Professional, SP1.
So, for the princely sum of $35 I purchased a new keyboard, an IBM Part No. 89P8500 and IBM Model No. SK-8840. It's labeled IBM, not Lenovo. The keyboard's cord ends in two PS/2 plugs, one for the keyboard and one for the mouse, the latter I believe refers to the integrated Synaptics touchpad, and the integrated Trackpoint. My office PC has no PS/2 inputs, so I purchased a Ziotek PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse to USB Adapter (ZT1040444) to make the connection between the keyboard and the PC.
The keyboard does achieve basic functionality by simply plugging it into the PC through the Ziotek adapter. But the Synaptics touchpad and the TrackPoint are capable of considerably more functionality. I know this because on my T42 the touchpad and TrackPoint were controlled by UltraNav software, which created a tab in the Mouse Properties in Control Panel. There, many adjustments and customizations were possible.
But having spent more hours than I will admit to (yes, it's in double digits), I am still unable to achieve UltraNav levels of functionality. Worse, and even though the keyboard functions, if I open Control Panel, Mouse Properties an error message appears saying:
"Unable to connect to the Synaptics Pointing Device Driver.
If you have installed another PS/2 Pointing Device Driver please uninstall the Synaptics driver by clicking on the Yes button. You then need to reinstall your pointing device driver for your external device again.
Do you want to uninstall the Synaptics driver now?"
I select "No" and the Mouse Properties dialogue box opens, sans any indication of UltraNav or any functionality beyond the basic functions provided in Windows.
It finally dawned on me that the UltraNav software is IBM's proprietary version of Synaptics' generic touchpad / trackpoint driver. And it just doesn't want to and/or isn't going to work on my clone PC. I have literally tried dozens of USB and PS/2 drivers from Lenovo's website. The generic Synaptics driver from Synaptics' website imparts none of the UltraNav functionality, as best as I can tell.
My guess is that IBM probably didn't plan on selling enough of the now-priced-at-$35 keyboard (89P8500 / SK-8840) to merit going to the trouble and expense of preparing an UltraNav driver for non-IBM computers to run the thing. But, is there a version of UltraNav that will run on non-IBM/Lenovo PCs? I haven't found it.
The keyboard uses PS/2 and the Ziotek adapter, at least in theory, maps the PS/2 interface over to work with the USB interface. But is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit treating the Ziotek adapter-connected keyboard as a PS/2 device (which it is), or does the Ziotek adapter cause windows to treat the keyboard as a USB device? Thus, is the adapter's mapping over process so complete that the PS/2 device is now treated as a USB device? I have inquired with Ziotek and I am awaiting a response, which may never come.
I posted here in desperation. Please help, if you are able.
Thank you,
Dennis

IBM sourced their keyboards from another company for a long time, and that company not only still exists, but still sells the keyboard you're using (though for much more). Company is Unicomp. Website is pckeyboard.com. They probably support the keyvboard.
That said, the generic synaptics reference driver should work for the trackpad. Can't say the same for the trackpoint.

Thank you for your help!
Solved!

How to know if you have backlit keyboard on W540?
I'm certain I selected it in the configurator, although if the IT guy followed through and also selected it in the order is another question. But nothing happens when I hit Fn+Spacebar. Is there a way to know for sure?
CPU-Z says my model is 20BH001XUS, if that tells anything.

Replacement keyboard for dv7-3183cl

I'm looking for a replacement keyboard for my DV7-3183cl, a backlit keyboard would be great but an original replacement would be satisfactory. Thanks.

Hi,
Firstly you can not connect a backlit keyboard to your computer without replacing the motherboad. You need somewhere to plug a bunch of lights. For normal keyboard, you can order from the following link:

USB travel keyboard vs non-IBM PC

For some time I've been using a USB keyboard with ultranav - the kind with the keypad, which has been discontinued - on my non-IBM PC running XP. That keyboard worked fine, and I could modify all the attributes of the trackpoint and pad. For me, it's especially important to be able to reduce the force necessary to use the trackpoint or I'll hurt my hands. Over time, though, it reached the end of its lifespan.
I bought a USB travel keyboard with ultranav. Essentially the same thing, but without the keypad. I've tried a variety of driver installs, including generic Synaptics drivers, and I can't modify the trackpoint's beavior. Both the pad and the trackpoint work, controlling the mouse, but there is no way to reduce the force necessary. At one point, I got the message that the trackpoint was disabled and I needed to re-enable it in the BIOS... but this isn't an IBM machine. It has an ASUS motherboard, and the bios has nothing relevant as far as I can tell.
A potential clue:
Watching the device manager, I've plugged in my old keyboard and the new travel keyboard. The old keyboard is recognized as a "HID Keyboard Device", "Synaptics Composite USB TouchPad", and "Synaptics Composite USB TouchStyk". The _new_ keyboard is recognized as a "HID Keyboard Device" and "HID-compliant mouse." I would have expected two mice, actually, one for the trackpoint and one for the touchpad.
I have tried various installs and drivers, including drivers from Lenovo and generic ones from Synaptics, without luck. It's still an HID-compliant mouse which won't let me change the amount of force necessary.
Any ideas?

Experimental Web Keyboards for Special Characters

Since the iPhone's current keyboard has only limited options in terms of characters, I put together a couple of experimental javascript keyboards for accented Latin, Russian, and Greek here
http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/we.html
http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/r.html
http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/g.html
if anyone would like to test them.
Unfortunately they are useless for anything practical until copy/paste is available or someone figures out another way to move the output into Mail or other iPhone apps.

Hi
Please look into
Note 1343806 - Problems with Unicode characters in non-Unicode back-end on service.sap.com.
in a Web Dynpro application, a termination occurs in the back-end if this is not a Unicode system.

How do I substutite Swipe Keyboard for default one on my iPhone 4s?

I have purchased the swipe keyboard for my iphone 4s. How do I substitute it for the default keyboard?

You don't. There is no such thing on a non-jailbroken iPhone.
The ones in the app store DO NOT WORK. Look at the reviews.
Jailbroken devices can not be discussed here per the terms of service.
