Calibrate Battery Envy m6-w10dx any advice?

[LittleTwinn]

Hello!

Hp Envy m6-w103dx battery replacement.

Cannot get new HP battery calibrated to win 10 os. No calibration process in UEFI(updated) & I attempted some dozen times to "manually" calibrate through discharge/recharge to no avail. I also have an HP Pavilion with the same exact issue. I've gone through two third party comp batts & one HP batt, no way all three are bad. From all symptoms it's totally calibration but without a calibration process or a manual process that works????

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Hi @LittleTwinn,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

It's frustrating when you're facing battery calibration issues on your HP Envy m6-w103dx and HP Pavilion laptops. Here are some steps you can try to address the problem.

Update BIOS/UEFI: Ensure that your laptop's BIOS/UEFI is up to date. Sometimes, HP releases updates that can address battery-related issues.

Reset Power Management:

• Right-click on the battery icon in the system tray.
• Select "Power Options."
• Click on "Change plan settings" for your current power plan.
• Choose "Change advanced power settings."
• Under the "Battery" category, make sure that the settings are optimized for your needs.

Calibrate Manually:

• Charge your laptop to 100%.
• Disconnect the charger and let the battery discharge to around 5-10%.
• Reconnect the charger and allow the battery to charge back to 100% without interruptions.
• This process may take several hours.

Battery Report:

• Open Command Prompt as Administrator.
• Type powercfg /batteryreport and press Enter.
• This generates a battery report (usually in the C:\Windows\System32 directory) that provides detailed information about your battery's health and usage patterns.

HP Support Assistant:

• Download and install the HP Support Assistant if you don't have it already.
• Run the battery check tool within the Support Assistant for diagnostic information.

Battery Driver Update:

• Open Device Manager.
• Under "Batteries," right-click on "Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery" and choose "Update driver."
• Follow the on-screen instructions to update the driver.

HP Diagnostics:

• Some HP laptops come with built-in diagnostics tools.
• Restart your laptop and press the appropriate key (usually ESC, F2, or F12) during boot to access the diagnostics menu.
• Run the battery test if available.

Remember to backup your important data before performing any major updates or diagnostics.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
