Well since the warranty is now over your left with replace keyboard or sell the laptop and get another one with a better quality keyboard. Those are you options.

  • Availabili​ty and Fitting of backlit keyboard to Envy DV6 - 7331SA

    I've an Envy DV6-7331SA which works just fine.
    I'd quite like a backlit keyboard.
    Googling around it seems that backlit keyboards are available but 
    1. Is this just a simple replacement. I presume the keyboard comes with the backlight cable and there is already a socket for it on the mobo? or what?
    2. I can find various foreign and US keyboards but dont seem to be able to find a UK backlit keyboard.
       - Is this available
       - What is its part No.
       - where can I get one

  • Is there a hidden screw or latch under the ctrl key to release the keyboard on the HP ENVY dv6-7250?

    The keyboard is damaged and I want to replace it.
    I have a HP Envy dv6 Notebook PC Model # C2L44UA#ABL with S/N {Content Removed}
    i believe the part number is B6R23AV WIN 8 MULTI lANGUAGE 64.1.1 dv6 for the keyboard.
    I removed all the screws and separated the top surface that holds the keyboard but something under the ctrl key is holding everything together.
    Is there a release mechanism in that area. If so how does it work?

  • Battery/ch​arger ENVY dv6 7210us

    I have an HP ENVY dv6 notebook PC, model 7210us, serial number: (Personal information removed), product number: C2M11UA#ABA
    BIOS: F.25, Processor AMD-A8-4500M APU. This notebook is about 2 years old.
    The problem is with the battery charging. Specifically, when plugged into the A/C the indicator states: "0%, Plugged In, Charging".  However, the battery is not charging. This problem started about a month ago. And it was around the time that I upgraded to Windows 8.1.
    Thinking it was either the power cord or battery, I purchased a new battery and changed out the A/C power supply & cords.
    First, the A/C supply change did not solve the problem, still 0%, Pluggd In, Charging. 
    Second, I replaced the battery with a new one. Initially the tray indicator stated 50%, Plugged In, Charging. But again, the battery was not being charged. It would remain at 50% until unplugged and then the battery would take over and begin draining. This continued until the new battery registered 0%, Plugged In, Charging.
    Thinking it may be a driver issue:
    Third, I followed youtube example where I uninstalled both battery and charger drivers located in Device Manager, powering down, reinstalling the battery and A/C then restarting the PC. The devices would reload on boot up. What i noticed was that the indicator, in the tray, would begin 'tanking' up, graphically showing that the battery symbol was 'filling'. It would do this for about 10 seconds, then stop, displaying an empty battery. Still the message 0%, Plugged In, Charging.
    Fourth, I upgraded the BIOS to F.25. I used the HP Support Assistant to identify and install the upgrade. It was successful. I then tried the Third option again, with the same results, 0%, Plugged In, Charging.
    Fifth, While in the HP Support Assistant, I ran the Battery Check tool and both batteries and both are O.K. per the HP Tool.
    Sixth, I've followed HP Support note to hard reset, by removing the battery and A/C, holding the power button for 30 seconds and powering up, same problem.
    The indicator light, located adjacent to the A/C plug into the computer, is 'orange' in color, indicating that it is charging. but again, 0%, Plugged In, Charging.  I've left the notebook plugged in for days, same problem. Also, I've left the notebook UN-plugged for days, same problem.
    As I mentioned above, this problem started 'around' the time when I upgraded to Windows 8.1. Once upgraded, I immediately had issues with the built in WiFi not working. It was as if the notebook could not recognise the built in hardware.  I ended up using an external USB WiFi. Once installed, the internal WiFi began operating properly. The WiFi problem took my attention, so I cant be sure that the battery/charging problem happened at the same time; but I'm pretty certain it did, as it took a while for the battery to discharge as I keep it plugged into A/C when in the office.
    I contacted HP support; but unfortunatly my notebook is out of warranty and HP requires payment for phone service. I did speak to both Hardware and Software specialists, but they were of little help. They did say that the problem was either soft or hardware and that they could determine software and fix that over the phone.
    I am told that the charging system is seperate from the operating system. That there is a dedicated circuit on the System Board that could be the culprit. I'm not certain that's accurate.  I was hoping that the upgrade to 8.1 caused a software problem.
    Can anyone give advice or help in identifing where the problem is? Or if this is a known problem?
    I've tried to list as much detail as possible. Thank you in advance for your help.
    Sincerely,
    /Bill

    Hi @eusbs ,
    Welcome to the HP forum! 
    This is a wonderful place to find information and get input on your issues!
    I grasp that after updating to Windows 8.1 you are experiencing a battery issue.  Thinking it could be the battery or power cord you replaced both the the issue remains.
    You have tried troubleshooting the issue  to no avail.
    You are correct there is a dedicated circuit on the motherboard that could be the issue.
    I know you ran the HP Support Assistant to get the HP updates, but have you done all your Windows updates?
    I  realize you have tested the batteries but did you try to calibrate them?
    Testing and Calibrating the Battery (Windows 8)
    You could try a Refresh Your PC to Resolve Problems (Windows 8).
    I believe this will take you back to Windows 8  your original OS.  If you are again able to charge the battery, then it is not hardware.
    If you are still unable to charge the battery after the refresh it is most likely the motherboard.
    If it again charges, reinstall the Windows 8.1 update and if the issue remains please contactMicrosoft  support for assistance as it would seem to be  the update causing the problem.

  • No webcam detected on my HP ENVY dv6-7200ea. How can I fix this?

    I recently bought the HP ENVY dv6-7200ea (Windows 8) and it has been working fine but the other day I noticed that the webcam was not working. Since then I have gone into the device manager and tried to fix through there but no such look. Can anyone help me fix this?

    I'm having the same problem.  Seems like it's a pretty common problem with these models.  You would think HP would fix it with an update or something.  The only answer I keep seeing is to reinstall the driver but but when I try to use the Recovery Manager to do that, I can't tell which driver controls web cam.
    After numerous Google searches trying to find the answer, I came across someone in another HP thread that said he called HP technical support and they basically told him he's going to have to basically abandon anything he's done to his pc and reset to factory to get his webcam to work.  That's BS.
    I'm just going to dig out my old MS web cam and clip it on.  This makes me so angry because I'm on a fixed income, invested hundreds of dollars I really don't have only to have to come up with rigged-up fixes for a laptop that I've had for only 9 months.  After this experience, I know what brand my next laptop WON'T be.

  • Monitor problem with envy dv6-7214nr

    I have a problem with my monitor.  At the very top there is a single line that keeps flashing.  What could the problem be?  A bad monitor?  Or something else?

    Hi Antlan,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP ENVY dv6-7214nr Notebook and getting a flashing line on the screen. Try performing a hard reset. When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices, and remove memory cards from the card reader slot. Disconnect all non-essential devices. If that does not help try to turn on the computer you start to press F11 repeatedly till the menu opens. You can do a system restore. You could check for a BIOS update.
    Hope this is helpful.

  • 2 SSD in a Envy DV6-7331 possible?

    Hi,
    It's possible. However, there is no reason for that and it could be a bit tricky as one of the SSDs must be a mSATA drive. Means you have to dismantle the top cover to access the mSATA slot. One SSD in the mSATA slot and a common hard drive is a decent config for any computer.

    Best regards

    Hi:
    There are no video "cards" in today's notebooks.  All of the graphics chips (GPU's) are soldered to the motherboard.
    A notebook PC is much different than a desktop. You can't just swap out one video adapter for another.
    The only other supported motherboard that your notebook could support, is one with the nvidia GT 650 GPU chip on it and the cost of upgrading would not be worth it.
    Yes, you can post your second question maybe in the notebook wireless section would be best.
    Best Regards,

  • Resored envy dv6 notebook and windows 8 won't load i dont have the discs

    I bought an HP envy dv6 notebook used with Windows 8.  The person I bought it from did not remove her password or fingerprint scan, I was unable to reach them (i bought it out of state).  I did some research and found the best thing to do was a complete system restore - which i followed the directions and did.  I do not have the original driver disc.
    I am now in a contant loop where it comes up with the first password which I successfully changed but would like to remove.  When it starts to load the administrator it goes into a constant loop of Windows did not load properly. Restart the computer.  And I fo around and around,  I have tried everything I have found on here and many other sires and still I am unable to get it to work.
    I have a Windows 7 disc but I am afraid to even try it since I was told that the reset to factory settings would work and it doesn't I do not want to do anymore damage.
    I did notice that the born on date say 00/00/0000  I am not sure if that is part of the problem or not
