Windows 10 Automatic Tablet Mode not working

[AlexTech]

Hi guys,

So basically I started fresh installation on windows 10, and when I tried to pull out the tablet because this is a detachable ultrabook the tablet mode didnt went ON so here's what I already tried:

• Rotation Lock: ON/OFF;
• When i sign-in into windows-->Use the appropriate mode for my hardware;
• When i this device automatically switches tablet mode on/off-->don't ask and always switch;
• Show visual feedback when i touch the screen ON/OFF.

It just continues not to work, so I thought that the intel integrated sensor solution driver would work, but it happens I don't find the one for this specific model which by the way is from Portugal,

Cheers,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

I understand the Windows 10 Automatic Tablet Mode is not working,

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help you out, however, for an accurate solution I will need more details:

What is the product number of your product? Use this link to find it: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03754824 

Which operating system are you using? is it the OEM or a custom ROM?

(Note: The notebook was designed with an operating system in mind and when you upgrade to another OS or a custom ROM, there are always bumps in the road and this has been the case for ever.
Keep an eye on the hp support site for updates and releases for Windows 10, if you find an OEM-install it instead of the custom ROM to resolve the issue).

Please reply with the details for further assistance.

Eager to help!

Feel free to post your query for any other assistance as well,

It's been a pleasure interacting with you and I hope you have a good day ahead.

Hi there again, 

So here's the information you asked for:

I'm using a Dual Boot System( Windows 10 Home OEM; Windows 10 Home Insider Preview 15007);

On both of them i can't get this automatic tablet mode feature to work.

And my Product Number is: F4W24EA#AB9

Thanks for the response in such short time,

@AlexTech A.K.A Alexandre

You've done a remarkable job performing the steps suggested earlier, great work 🙂 

And don't worry, as we should be able to fix this up with a few more steps and I'll be with you until we ensure this issue is fixed.

I recommend you revert back to the factory shipped (single boot) OEM to resolve the issue,

As HP doesn't recommend dual boot OS or custom ROMs.

Before you complete the above step, please update the BIOS and intel chipset drivers: Click here

And if the issue persists, please perform a recovery and here's how to reinstall factory shipped(OEM) OS.

Let me know how that pans out, 

Feel free to post your query for any other assistance as well,

It's been a pleasure interacting with you and I hope you have a good day ahead.

Hi there,

The thing is, before I did this Dual Boot System I had only The OEM Windows 10 Home version and it still didnt work(automatic tablet mode), I got this computer already factory reset by other person, because if it were me handling the stuff it would be different, maybe its a missing driver I don't know, i'm good at windows 10 but the drivers part is really not my stuff :smileyfrustrated:,

Thank you for the update,

I appreciate your time and efforts,

Don't worry about the drivers, the issue you seem to have is with the OS,

We aren't sure how he installed the OS on your tablet before he handed it over to you.

Hence I would recommend you perform a recovery and here's how to reinstall factory shipped(OEM) OS (again)

Once the OEM is installed as it ought to be, everything should fall into place.

Keep me posted for further assistance,

If I have helped you resolve the issue, feel free to give me a virtual high-five by clicking the 'Thumbs Up' icon below,

Hi there again,

Sorry the later response, vacantions are required sometimes, anyway so i haven't done it yet because since I had no 3.0 USB drives and had to install windows in legacy mode, because the hibrid only has 3.0 usb ports and in that way(legacy) doesn't work yet but I haven't done it via recovery manager because when the last owner gave it to me it was already without it....
So my question here is is there anyway of getting into hp recovery manager without it on windows?

Thanks for all the patience,

@AlexTech

@AlexTech, thanks for the response.

Thanks for trying out the steps.

As you mentioned the issue persists after performing a clean installation of windows.

It looks to be a hardware issue, it can be a orientation sensor issue.

Please contact HP support for service options.

Link to contact HP.

Have a great day ahead! 🙂
