I've just got myself a new 2020 omen laptop (not the new style , but its brand new 2020 build)
and i having some trouble with the backlit keyboard
it sometimes work great and sometime its not responding ( I'm talkin only about the RGB backlit , the keyboard itself working as i writing this thread )
but now for example the backlit aint working , of course I've tried FN key+F4
as well updated my BIOS
uninstalled keyboard drivers then reinstalled them
uninstalled OMEN command center then reinstall it
and at omen command center it shows that the keyboard lighting is ON
i actually tried everything i could found online but nothing work
this morning i turn the computer on and the backlit worked great

Our Community can (and would) offer the types of troubleshooting you have already tried.
I don't have an Omen "anything" and I might have missed something, of course.
@old_geekster- Do you have words of wisdom? Thanks for any insight.
After software, drivers, updates, starring at it, and everything else you can think of fails to help, consider contacting HP Support.

@Dragon-Fur, I am sorry that I can't add anything to the discussion. I haven't had an Omen for several years and have not used Omen Command Center for this reason. I will ask @Photoray002 to clime in on the subject. He has been keeping up on OCC for quite awhile.

@old_geekster Unfortunately there is nothing the OP can do from the user end, it is a physical issue. He/She would either have to return it to the store it was purchased from for an exchange/refund, or contact HP Support for a warranty claim.
