bluetooth keyboard keeps losing connection

[steveh3]

bluetooth keyboard loses connection while it's attached to screen.  It happens when keyboard is moved slightly and orangeish light at connection point comes on.  If I move keyboard slightly and orange light goes off, connection resumes.

Welcome to the HP Forums 🙂

I would like to take a moment and thank you for using this forum, it is a great place to find answers.

As I understand the Bluetooth keyboard keeps losing connection,

Don't worry as I have a few steps to help resolve your concern:
 

In windows 10, lots of applications and devices are ‘OFF’ because those devices consume too much power. So In windows, 8 specific devices ‘OFF’ to Save Power.

→ First of all Go to RUN (Windows Logo + R) and type “devmgmt.msc” (Device Manager).

→ In Device Manager click on Network Adapters. In Network Adapters Find your Bluetooth Wireless Network and Right click on it then go to Power Management Tab and Unmark on “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power”.

→ Now check your Bluetooth device.

Keep me posted for further assistance,

Did the power supply thing as you directed.  Issue continues.  The slighest movememt of the keyboard while attached causes solid amber light to come on or off.  When off, keyboard will link, when on, link goes dead. If keyboard is dettached, link immediately goes dead.  the movement of the flexible portion of the connector on the keyboard, closest to the amber light that goes on and off, seems to be the location of the issue. I suspect the keyboard doesn't get recharged and is basically "dead" unless connected just right with the computer.

The Envy15 bluetooth keyboard seems to be an issue for many users....just check online.  Less than 2 years old, keyboard has charging issues and subsequently bluetooth connecting issues.  HP wants $245 to check out the entire unit, and then will tell me I need to purchase a new keyboard for over $130.  I am forced to go and buy a wireless $26 keyboard and use my HP keyboard as a screen protector!
