One speaker of EliteBook 8470p works

Hi all

I use a 8470p EliteBook and noticed that only integrated speakers work.

I checked all the settings, levels, balance, done all kinds of tests and updated audio driver to the latest version.

The result is that I still hear all the sounds of the left speaker only. When testing, I hear channels left and right from the same place, as if it was Mono. Helmet works normally.

The plausible explanation only I could find, in addition to a fault, is since 2008 and for a completely different model: available to stakeholders had changed at the time and two speakers were nested in one of the slots of the speaker. However, it has been more than five years, and I think that it is not applicable.

If anyone knows the question or disassembled this machine, please let me know what you think.

Thank you!

Hi Buzev

I did a check on my p 8470 after seeing this post.

My machine has 2 speakers, but they're right next to each other on the left side of the machine.  If I put hy head close enough, I can say that his slightly in front of the other, but both having one side certainly defeated the purpose of having a stereo sound!

It seems that yours is laid out the same way.

See you soon

  • Only one speaker (for both) to work (after checking the FAQ)

    Hello

    I have an inspiron N5110 R15 3 years now, a few days ago one of the speakers stopped working. When I do a test of stereo sound, the left speaker (the one that always works) its left AND RIGHT sample tones. so I figure this is on some kind of maybe Mono?

    -When I plug the headphones I have the sound on both sides.

    So far, I have tried

    1 reset

    2 tried update driver if the Device Manager

    3. turn on device

    4A ran the audio problems (win 7, 64 bits)

    5. looked around the frequently asked questions here

    * I do not uninstall the driver and downloaded a new because it seems strange to be the issue, after working for 3 years and all of a sudden it stops. you are the experts, so I'll gladly do if you say.

    current driver is manufactor (IDT high definition...)

    Thank you in advance.

    Another test, that you can run is ePSA Audio Quick Check. Note that not all ePSA and ePSA models do not all control by Audio fast. If you do not then just fail the color bar test as described in the FAQ. If you hear tones in the two speakers at the trials then the speaker itself is good and another part is the cause of the problem, probably the socket for headphones, since you know the audio working properly up to this day.

    If you hear only tones in one speaker and the other speaker is confirmed then failing or has a bad connection.

    The final test you can do is to perform a System Recovery. If it's a software problem then recovery will fix the problem and if it is material, then it will be no and hardware will be confirmed as the source of the problem. But no point in doing so, if only one speaker is heard in the previous test...

    I do not uninstall the driver and downloaded a new because it seems strange to be the issue, after working for 3 years and all of a sudden it stops.

    You need not to do because you tried the native driver which served the same purpose. A simple re-installation of the audio driver (no download) is that your settings will be lost - in other words, the default configuration is restored thus exclude a problem of configuration, such as defined as mono in the sound properties.

    If you want to check this, open the playback of the sound properties, right click on the speaker/headphones, select Properties, click the levels tab, click the Balance button. It does not matter how cursors are defined so that they are both the same level of the dB.

    Download a new copy of the pilot aims to eliminate corruption from the existing driver. Sometimes, they stop everything works correctly.

  • Only one speaker works on the bottom of the phone

    All the documentation that comes with the Turbo 2 and online documentation I've seen before buying indicate that there are two audio ports on the bottom of the phone, one on each side of the Verizon logo. However, only the side right (while facing the phone) actually works. The left speaker does not work. Verizon, which did not, I called and they put someone in support of Motorola on the line. The motorcycle rep says absolutely the two speakers should work and my phone is defective. They suggested that I return it as a guarantee of Exchange. I'm happy to do, but before I did I stopped by a verizon store and checked four phones they had on display. All four phones had the same "defect". So is - can anyone clarify if both speakers work on any Turbo 2 phones?

    I was also wondering with all these mixed news, but there's a tear down video on YouTube which shows clearly there is only one speaker. I hear only on the bottom right, that nothing about ports to the left on mine.

    Hello:

    The usb controller you model posted ID indicates that your laptop is not a p 8470, but a p 8460.

    You need this driver usb 3 to this ID.

    FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp54501-55000/sp54511.exe

    The 8470p have the Intel USB3 controller and the 8460 p have the Renesas Electronics USB 3.0 Host Controller.

    That's why I finally asked for hardware ID, because if you had a 8470 p then or the other of these Intel drivers I posted should have worked.

  • EliteBook 8470p: remove the custom logo of 8470p - using EREPLOGO. EFI

    I just bought a used HP EliteBook 8470p who I am in reconstruction.

    The previous owner (who I didn't contact) changed the POST logo screen, appearing briefly at startup to display a political statement - I want to remove and restore the default the HP Logo.

    HP (702342-001, created in June 2012) technical white paper, I determined the following high level steps:

    -I'm running BIOS 2012 generation specifications

    -The EREPLOGO of HP. EFI utility is required to make the changes by using the option "ereplogo /e.

    -J' I run the EREPLOGO. Utility of EFI "EFI Boot file" option in the Menu "Startup Options".

    Questions please:

    Is this still the correct way to implement this change?

    The white paper and the SoftPAQ containing the utility (sp58176.exe) are both dated 2012. Here is the latest version available? That is 4 years old!

    Thank you.

    For those interested, I managed to solve the problem that I came with the help of this EREPLOGO. The EFI utility.

    The utility is available for download in the software and drivers for my device (HP EliteBook 8470p) Web page and I followed the steps described in the technical documentation that accompanies the download. Crime (in this case) logo has been removed by the use of a control subject via the EFI Shell to start setting switch.

    So yes, it's getting a little old, but the utility worked perfectly on my system BIOS UEFI.

    Thanks HP!

    Hello

    I need help.

    I want to install Win XP 32 bit on my Elitebook 8470p, which came with Win8. I need to do a clean XP install on the laptop.

    If anyone can help me please you through the steps necessary to install XP on this laptop?

    I have a bootable CD with installation of XP, I start the installation but the laptop freezes at the "Setup starts windows" and displays the BSOD with acpi.sys inside.

    I tried many options in the BIOS, like disabling AHCI and activation IDE mode and a lot of other options, but no one allows to go beyond this error.

    Thank you.

    Hello:

    Set the drive controller setting in the BIOS to AHCI.

    Also enable the legacy mode in the BIOS, that must disable secure boot.  XP is not compatible with secure startup.

    Then read the info at the link below, section of Intel.  Then read the info on the downloadable document for how to integrate all the sata drivers.

    I just bought a 1 t Samsung SSD 850 EVO 2.5 "SATA drive III to replace the hard drive in my Elitebook 8470P. Is that going to be just a simple swap where I remove the old hdd and plug the new ssd? That was the plan, but I have been wrong before passing.

    Unfortunately, business machines such as Probooks or EliteBook have more strict security consumption patterns - they do not produce "stop codes", the password cannot be derived from the serial number and the code is stored in a nonvolatile memory to remove the RTC cell does not reset the password in this case.
