HP Pavilion dv6 QJ916AAR: fingerprint reader problems

Hello

This is my first post so I apologize if it appears in the wrong place. I'll have a problem with the fingerprint reader and HP simple pass identity protection software that came with my Dv6-QJ916AAR. For some reason any all of a sudden since this morning it will not work. There is no light on the sensor, and it fails every time and movement. When I run the single pass software and go to the fingerprint section, it shows the fingerprint reader is not connected. Interestingly, when I go to Device Manager I see no biometric devices listed under there. I read on another thread that some options below biometic devices in Device Manager solves the problem.

I already tried pass Simple uninstall/reinstall the Recovery Manager and also uninstalled and updated validity sensor but still no go.  Here are some other details:

Laptop model: Dv6-QJ916AAR

Operating system: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

I can't find any other information on how to solve it. Can anyone help?

Thank you!

  • Pavilion DV6-6119wm fingerprint reader problems

    For about 2 years, my fingerprint reader did not. I'm looking to sell the laptop and worth almost double with the work fingerprint reader. I updated the BIOS, digital and HP SimplePass fingerprint reader driver. The drive appears in the biometric devices under Device Manager and says it's working properly. When I go to the control panel > biometric devices, it shows as unavailable validity sensor. Seriously, the only thing that I did not until now to get this thing working properly is completely replace the Board of fingerprinting, which I doubt is necessary because it appears in Device Manager. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? The sooner, the better! Thank you!

    Hello @tylernelson224,

    I read your post on how you're looking to restore functions to scan fingerprint on your laptop, and I'd be happy to help you in this case!

    In order to get your fingerprint in functional order reader, I recommended that you perform a backup and restore of your operating system. This can be done by following this document on the backup of files (Windows 7), and more to perform a recovery of the system HP (Windows 7). This should help get your system back to factory settings. If the problem persists, the fingerprint reader may be damaged.

    I hope this helps!

  • Pavilion dv6 3325dx fingerprint reader

    I changed the system OP of Win7 Home Premium to Win7 Ultimate 64 on my laptop.

    I lost the magnitude of the volume of the screen, the mute button does not illuminate on white, the fingerprint reader does not work.

    I checked the troubleshooting system and it seems that everything is fine.

    Thank you very much

  • HP Pavilion dm4-1060us of fingerprint reader problem

    Hi, I've recently messed around with the path under system variables setting (computer Start > R.Click > properties > advanced system settings > Environment Variables) and now I can't connect using my fingerprint reader.  If someone could tell me the value of default path under System Variables I would be very happy.

    Thank you

    jschuster08

    I don't have the same model but a similar model serial DM4. The value of path I have are:

    %COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Shared Live;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;c:\Program files (x 86) \Common Files\Roxio Shared\DLLShared\; c:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Roxio Shared\DLLShared\; c:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Roxio Shared\12.0\DLLShared\; C:\Program Files (x 86) \Hewlett-Packard\HP SimplePass identity Protection\x64; C:\Program Files (x 86) \Hewlett-Packard\HP SimplePass identity Protection\

    If the problem persists, I suggest you just to do a system restore and restore the system at a time when it is working properly. See the following link for the procedure:

  • HP DV6 - 6b12ed Fingerprint reader not detected.

    I have a HP DV6-6b12ed with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

    Everything works except my fingerprint reader.

    I tried installing the drivers on the website of support & drivers HP, but did not work.

    I tried to install software like Simplepass identify Protection and DigitalPersona digital.

    But when I try to configure my print it says that it is not detected! (See screenshot below).

    Also when I start windows, it says it is scanning for the fingerprint reader, finally what he say not detected.

    I have no idea what causes the problem, when I go into the Device Manager, it says that biometric devices is installed correctly (with no. "!" inside).

    See screenshot:

    Help, please... It's driving me crazy...

    Hey Midsyork,

    Looks like you run Digital Persona SimplePass flavor.

    Two things to try, in order:

    • Hard reset
    • Remove and reinstall the validity sensor driver

    Hard Reset:

    Sometimes, all you need to do is the computer suddenly.  This method works for a variety of connection and "glued" program issues.

    • Disconnect all the external devices first.
    • Remove the AC power and battery
    • Press and hold the power button while in the minus 30 seconds
    • Reinstall the power supply for the first start only * see Note
    • Power on - connect
    • Next time you shut down the system, replace the battery.

    * Note: You can ignore the little battery aside.  If you wish, replace the battery the first time and do it with her.

    Check the software...

    If it still does not work, go ahead.

    • Control Panel > Device Manager > biometric devices > Validity Sensor > uninstall > delete
    • Reboot ...

    Validity Sensor V2.1.0.2

    • Install the validitysensorDriverinstallationpackage: it if called sp*.exe - the package will be most likely located in the downloads folder.  If you have control of "Admin", you can highlight the package and "double-click on ' to install it, otherwise just right-click, select"Run as Administrator"and install.

    This can kick things hard enough to restore the Digital Persona software.  You can hit him harder, but first...

    ======================================================================================

    What about the rest...

    You could consider running a full system scan.  I'm a demon for this.  I like a healthy file system.  It cannot solve the problem, but it will ensure that the issue is not a messed up system files, which CAN cause all sorts of unpleasant and troubled issues.  You do not really have to 'look' like a mother hen during analysis, look at the logs or 'DO' something.  He's going to take care of yourself and try to fix what it can.  The only time where that must involve it is things do not go well...  Is there a doc to help at the end to tell you what does this thing.  It is not harmful and, unless your system is broken, and it's going to die anyway, it will only make things better than they are now.

    scannow SFC

    Analyze and fix the system.  The sfc/scannow command. who will do - it will scan the operating system, looking for corrupted files and inconsistencies; He will replace or repair everything he can.  If it finds corrupted programs or libraries, it will try to correct them.

    • Start menu > all programs > Accessories > right click on guest > select ' run as administrator'
    • In the command prompt window, type (or copy / paste) sfc/scannow , and then press enter.

    (Note the space between sfc and the ' / '.)

    The sfc scan will report its findings and you can look at the results:

    • Open an command prompt (it doesn't have to be as an administrator):
    • Use the command copy to create a copy of file readable by the output:

    %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log copy %userprofile%\desktop\cbs.txt

    If "scannow" does not properly complete, try running:

    SFC /verifyonly

     

    Copy the results to a text file, extract the output file in Notepad and look for errors that could not fix the full scan.

    Help file for the System FIsland Checker command:

    The Windows Vista or Windows 7 System File Checker tool

    If the Microsoft Fixit does not correct the problem by removing the upper and lower filter drivers, then the device is not so fully operational...

    It's aid. Now, you know that it must be repaired or replaced.
