HP Envy X2 Windows 10 - Auto Tablet Mode when keyboard Detaches

HI, I have an HP Envy X2 and have just upgraded it to Winbdows 10 - All working fine There is a feature that when you dock and undock the keyboard, windows 10 can detect this and switch you between tablet and dektop mode automatically. At least this is the case with something like a Microsofr Surface - as seen on lots of training videos. Does anyone know if the Hp Envy X2 should do this, or is it different as the keyboard is bluetooth, so effectively never gets disconnected even when it's not physically joined to the tablet screen. Just sounds like a cool feature that I'd like to see turn ed on for me, but for th life of me I cannoet get it to work.

Hey , Welcome to the HP forums. If you go to Start > Settings > System > Tablet Mode you should see "Optimize the system for tablet and touch usage by enabling tablet mode." Make sure this is turned on and set to never ask. Thanks.

Ideapad yoga 13 - windows 10 - automatic tablet mode?

I have upgraded my yoga 13 to Windows 10 and everything works great. The one thing that bugs me though is that the laptop doesn't automatically switch to tablet mode when I flip the keyboard around. Does the original Yoga 13 not support that (yet) ?

Go to Start>Settings>System>Tablet Mode, set 'When this device automatically switch tablet mode on or off' to 'Don't ask me and always switch. Also, if you didn't uninstall it before the upgrade disable Lenovo Transition in the Task Manager Startup Tab, you don't need it, Windows deals with switching now.

Toshiba Satellite Radius P55W doesn't go into Tablet mode

My Toshiba Satellite Radius, that I just purchased and recieved today; when I turn the screen over, to enter "tablet mode" the keyboard does not deactivate and the screen does not flip to where it is positioned almost like something is wrong with the gyroscope or something. I've looked online but haven't found anyone with a similar problem as mine. I've uninstalled the HID Sensor Collection in device manager and restarted, and then I tried to upgrade it but it says that it is upgraded. I've also upgraded the entire computer. Nothing seems to be working. Any help would be much appreciated.

Toshiba P55w-B5318. I have a similar problem.When the screen is bent around, machine does go into tablet mode and screen rotates to whatever orientation is needed. I can also 'lock' the screen in that position so that auto-rotate doesn't.That's good ... but often in tablet mode the computer suddenly decides it's in laptop mode *without* any movement of the screen, i.e., still wrapped around.The screen spins around regardless of physical position - and then shows the screen lock in 'laptop mode.' At the moment, if I wait a few seconds, the screen reverts to tablet mode of whatever orientation was locked. Toshiba: Whatever you are using to detect 'laptop mode' it's either too sensitive or is prone to problems - like the OP indicates. Whether it's hw or sw I can't say. Fix it and post the fix here!

Medrec pointbase orace RDBMS migration (Cannot set auto-commit mode)

For proof-of-concept purposes, I'm trying to install the MEDREC application on an Oracle database. I've migrated the schema using the demo.ddl found on the base install image. However, when I update the JDBC connect string to point to the oracle rdbms, I rec'v the message below. Has anyone discovered a workaround?
After the jdbc connect string is updated to point to Oracle, I see the app server connected successfully to the database.

Revolve 810 G1 Unlock Computer when in Tablet Mode. Press CTRL-ALT-DEL or Windows Security Button

1. I have an Revolve 810 G1
Running Windows 7 Pro (64 Bit).
When I change the screen to Tablet Mode
(Folding tablet over keyboard and using as tablet).
I lock my computer.
2. What to know how to unlock without having to Open back up and use the CTL-Alt-DEL keys.
When Locked screen shows: Press CTRL-ALT-DEL or use the Windows Security Button to unlock this computer.
I would like to use the Windows Button on the bottom of the screen
(One Used in Windows 8 to change between Desktop and Metro) to Unlock screen And bring up on screen keyboard to put in my password.
This is probably how it should work, but it does not work.
Even bringing up the onscreen keyboard via the blue power button On the screen to Ease Of Access does not work.
The CLT-ALT-DEL on the on screen keyboard will not unlock the screen.
P.S.
Where is that Windows Security Button when you need it?
Thanks,
Rog

If you are using Windows 7 (not Windows 8), you should be able to touch the Ease of Access button at the lower left of the screen, then select Type without the keyboard (On-screen keyboard). When the on-screen keyboard pops-up, press CTRL, then ALT, then DEL. You should get a password prompt; the on-screen keyboard will stay visible unless and until you close it.

Yoga 2 Pro - Frequent issues after Tablet Mode and Suspend in Windows 8.1

Hi,
I bought a Yoga 2 Pro running windows 8.1 in December 2013. The machine runs fine, but from the beginning I experience frequent system issues whenever I have the Yoga in Tablet mode (display turned to the back).
The issues sometimes arise directly after I resume from tablet mode. More frequent the issues appear once I had the machine in tablet mode and after had it in suspend mode!
Some of the frequent issues that arise after I resume from tablet mode:
Power surge at right USB Port, where I have my mouse connected! The connected device cannot be provided with enough power. (Note, the left port still works), or
WiFi not working any more (No WLAN device detected, WLAN not functional), or
Bluetooth not working (No Bluetooth device detected, BT not functional)
All issues reliably disappear with a system restart!
I have already updated my drivers, scanned the Lenovo and Microsoft forum whether this is known without success and hope this avenue will bring me more luck.
What makes the bug hard to narrow down is that I do not have a recipe to reproduce the error. Not every time I turn the display in tablet mode the symptoms are equal! But what I can is that the tablet mode is the most common denominator I found so far.
Any helped/suggestions much appreciated.
Regards
   Florian

Yea, great... it seems like these articles and suggestions come up in the forum, and then there is always someone that says "it didn't work but this solved it for me" which ammounts to setting the screen at full brightness all the time.   LENOVO, HOW ABOUT FIXING THE ISSUE!!! It definitly has something to do with power, in my case _the only_ thing that fixes it is either plugging in a power cord or closing the screen, reopening it and hitthing the power button to turn it back on (both are REALLY annoying if you're trying to get work done).
I'm a fairly experienced IT guy, and I used to swear by _IBM_ Thinkpads and related laptops, then when they went to Lenovo a few years ago it seems like the support has gone to hell and the hardware appears nice but is sketchy (this thing should have never shipped with this display problem or the wifi card issues that it shipped with).   Honestly if issues like this don't get resolved Im not likely to order any more, ever. Not for my self or for my organization, we will stop persueing contracts with you and certifying the hardware for our work (though with the lenovo purchase it was deemed that the hardware wasn't certifyable for certine applications anyway). Yes, that will cost you a few thousand sales a year, which is a drop in the bucket for you, but I'm sure I won't be the only one.

Windows 7 (x64) taskbar not working after using digitizer in tablet mode. x61t.

Hi,
I have Windows 7 professional x64 on my thinkpad x61t. I updated all drivers from windows update and also from lenovo.com. So far it's been about two weeks with no problems. But when I started using tablet mode (fold) for lecturing a class (clone video output) in tablet mode, the taskbar stops responding to my clicks. No error message or anything, but I just can't press the start button or anything on the taskbar using a stylus. The point on the screen moves and follows my digitizer/mouse correctly, but I can't press anything. The keyboard works though, so I can restart the computer to get it back working. What could be causing the problem?
I've tried installing lenovo-wacom dual touch driver, but it only caused more problems, so I had to remove it and use the windows update driver.
x61 tablet / multitouch / 3GB Ram / intel wifi / bluetooth

Workaround: Press 'Control + Alt + Del' to open task manager, and click 'Cancel'.
Stylus worked okay during teaching using Onenote. The problem starts when I start clicking the start menu and try opening other programs while in tablet mode. Once the loss of pointer, the only thing works is the keyboard.
I found a workaround for this. Press 'Control + Alt + Del' to open task manager, and click 'Cancel'. Then you can gain control again, at least until the next time you loose mouse/tablet control.
I currently have hotkey driver and sound driver (final driver for win7). For system interface driver / tablet button driver / tablet shortcut menu, I installed beta drivers. All other drivers were updated through Windows Update.
I'd appreciate if anyone finds a fix for this problem.

I am unable to get the windows TIP for Tablet PCs to auto pop up when clicking with a stylus or my finger. What add-on/setting will fix this?

I have a lenovo Thinkpad Convertible tablet. In the past I've been able to get it were the Windows TIP pops up when I click on a text input field. This function no longer works, I have a new computer, and whatever change I'd done to my old computer is not readily apparent. Any help in getting text input fields to pop up the TIP automatically would be great. Until then, in tablet mode, I have to use my computer with IE or keep the TIP at the taskbar to click on, but that's a lot of movement and rather annoying.

Actually the setting is called: '''intl.enable_tsf_support'''
Note the underscore instead of the dot.
I had to enable this settings for TIP to work on my HP EliteBook 2740p after installing the driver from Wacom's website.
When I was using the Wacom driver supplied from Windows Update however the TIP worked even fine without this setting.
I've documented the issue and solution here at my blog for other Tablet PC users who encounter this problem: [http://www.unlogic.se/blogs/myblog/post/firefox-tip Firefox and the Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP)]

How do I switch Windows 8 to desktop mode from tablet mode?

I think my laptop is in tablet mode, because after only one minute of inactivity it goes to the lock screen and asks me for a password. This is troublesome when I am trying to read something, for example.
Thanks.

Hi,
Go to your Screen Saver Settings, select how many idle minutes to Wait before going to straight to the log on screen without a screen saver displaying first.
Meanwhile, go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Power Options, click "Change plan settings" link of your current selected plan, click "Change settings that are currently unavailable", set "turn off the display" as "never".
In addition, as NextXPert's view, Did you configure mail to sync with an Exchange environment?

Keyboard still working in tablet mode (Yoga 13 Windows 10)

i have installed Windows 10 on my Yoga 13.It runs pretty smooth. when i fold back the keyboard to use the yoga in tabled mode, the hardwarekeyboard is turned-off as it should.but sometimes, it still triggers some keys pressed while it shouldn't has anyone a solution for this?

Go to Start>Settings>System>Tablet Mode, set 'When this device automatically switch tablet mode on or off' to 'Don't ask me and always switch. Also, if you didn't uninstall it before the upgrade disable Lenovo Transition in the Task Manager Startup Tab, you don't need it, Windows deals with switching now.

[TP Yoga S1] Windows 10 - Auto-Rotate button doesn't work in landscape mode.

I just updated to Win 10 on Yoga S1. A strange problem occured regarding auto rotate. When the laptop is in landscape mode (normal mode), the physical "Enable/Disable Autorotate" button doesn't work, and the Autorotate button in the action center button is disabled. However, when I physically rotate my laptop, the screen rotates, and suddenly, both buttons now are active. This defeats the purpose of the button since it can't lock rotation when the laptop is in landscape mode. Anyone having this problem too?

Still have this problem as well. I've installed every windows 10 update I could find.BiosSystem Inferface DriverPower ManagementLenovo System Extension/ButtonSystem Update 5

Yoga 2 13 stuck in tablet mode

Hello,
I just received a new Yoga 2 13, 8Gb, 256Gb SSD. I have been using it exclusively as a laptop.
It worked just fine for a few days. I did notice once the screen flipped sideways and the keyboard turned off randomly but after turning the laptop on its side and back, everything went back to normal.
Today, after closing the lid and putting the machine to sleep, then waking it up, it awoke in tablet mode with the sideways screen and turned off keyboard. To do anything I have to use the on-screen keyboard, which does work.
Nothing I did could get it to go back to laptop mode, or for autorotate to ever work. Rebooted several times, no. The "Lenovo" signage does show correctly in landscape as soon as the machine turns on, but once it gets to the login window, it's back to sideways tablet mode.
The auto-rotate button (which I had never touched prior) doesn't appear to do anything. I click the button, it says "autorotate off" then I click it again to "autorotate on" and still no rotation.
I called Lenovo technical support, and he tried (after remote desktoping into my machine) to try a different display driver. The Windows "Basic" Driver, the Intel Driver from March 2014, and the latest Lenovo display drivers downloaded did nothing.
He turned off "ycp" or something similar as a startup service, no help.
In Screen Resolution, he changed the orientation of the display from portrait to landscape which did fix the orientation problem but did nothing about the keyboad. I assume this is a brute force solution which does not fix the underlying "endless tablet mode" issue.
Finally, he had me boot into the BIOS. Interestingly, the keyboard works just fine in the BIOS screen, and the orientation is the correct landscape. WHAT?!!
But bottom line, tech support failed to find a fix for the problem. Can I ask any of you for some additional ideas?
Thank you so much!

I got lucky after multiple times of trying. It is back on Sync'ing.

Running Android apps on Yoga 2 Pro in tablet mode

I've not been impressed with Windows Metro when using my Yoga 2 Pro in tablet mode, so I have installed BlueStacks (http://www.bluestacks.com/).
So far it's been pretty good, with the occasional glitch.
Anyone else tried it?
Neil

Im interested in knowing as well...... I think it is great to use bluestacks on this machine!

On Screen Keyboard Glitch in Tablet Mode - On Screen Keyboard minimizes / disappears / slides down

Hi there -
New Yoga owner here ( just bought it yesterday) and within minutes of setting the computer up I noticed that the on screen keyboard was malfunctioning when the yoga is in tablet mode. Specifically, it pops up for about a second and then, without me touching or clicking or doing anything, it quickly slides back down. repeated attempts to bring up the keyboard end up, frustratingly, with the same result. what is perplexing to me is the on screen keyboard works fine in laptop mode (when I need it least).
Someone else already started a post on this BUT it was marked as 'solved' (which it wasn't) so I figured I'd start new thread. The solution on the previous thread was to simply 'refresh' windows to get rid of any new drivers that were downloaded since purchasing the yoga, but I did not download or update anything prior to this problem arising (as I said, the problem seemed to occur within a few minutes of turning the machine on for the first time). In any case, I tried the refresh and it did not work so clearly my problem is not that I downloaded an incompatible or faulty driver. Please Help! I love this machine and I'm trying to see past the other flaws I've noticed so far (subtle screen flickering, inconsistent touch sensitivity etc), but this issue is starting to really undermine my confidence in the product quality and, from a productivity standpoint, it is a real deal breaker to not have full tablet functionality.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I had the same problem with the disappearing virtual keyboard within hours of starting to use my new Yoga 13. I read somewhere that it was a problem with an incompatible Synaptics driver, and when I looked in the control panel, it showed that the Synaptics driver had been updated on my Yoga as of the day I bought it. I think somehow by agreeing to automatic updates of the software, the Synaptics driver is updated to an incompatible version. So what I did was I removed the Synaptics driver, using the Windows program uninstaller tool, rebooted, and then found the Synaptics driver at the Lenovo site which is specifically labelled as the Yoga 13 driver. I installed that, and the keyboard is now working fine.
