Spectre x360 13 4193dx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hey all,

 

My Spectre's touch screen stopped working after trying to upgrade its firmware.
I was looking for a newer firmware version to make the stylus work, but after running the software I got a red screen, it rebooted and never worked.
I called HP support and they told me it is a hardware problem, however the hardware is detected correctly when I boot it with a Linux distro. Looks like it's a matter of having the correct firmware or driver to make it work again.
I looked everywhere for a firmware update or a tool to diagnose it, but I had no luck.
HP support here in Brazil says they can't do anything, even if I have a global coverage. Taking it to the US for support is out of question.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks

 

Here's the lsusb -v output for it.

Hi @FioCavallari

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

Perfect, I am really glad to hear that the touch screen is working now.

 

I would like to inform you that if the stylus is a passive stylus it will work with the computer.

 

Please find the list of stylus compatible with your computer.

As I suspected the issue was related to firmware.

Today I went back to the Spectre x360 dirvers download page and it was the first time a download for the touchscreen was available.

Now the only challenge is to make the stylus work.

Any ideas if Dell Active Stylus 750-AAIZ works with Spectre x360 Convertible (13 4193dx)?
