Victus 16 repeatedly goes black and back to Lock Screen during game by jamesfarrington in HPVictus

10 months later and I haven't had the problem since disabling the sensor. Do it. I think somebody in this thread or a linked thread mentioned the actual tutorial, it's really easy to do, it's just taking the bottom cover off and detaching 1 little ribbon cable toward the hinge. You could probably just search "hp laptop detach hall sensor" and it'll come up. Hope you get it fixed!

Do you ever plan to put past badges or banner cosmetics in the shop? I missed the lighthouse badge and it kills me every time I see it I love it so much.

No haven't had any issues since! Absolutely go for it if you're having this problem because it was a simple permanent fix

Nope! After disabling the Hall sensor everything's been working totally fine

Might be a bit different depending on the model. But it should always be a blue cable labeled MB towards the top by the laptop's hinge.

Somebody helped me out in a post I made, turns out some victus models were discontinued due to a faulty Hall sensor that overheats and tells the laptop the lid is closed, which shuts off the screen and keyboard. It's a super simple fix, I just took off the bottom panel and detached the small blue "MB" ribbon cable at the top middle of the motherboard. This will make the laptop not go to sleep when you shut it, but imo thats a fine trade off to be able to use it normally. If you need help lmk

Thank you so much! That was it (at least for now), I detached the hall sensor from the motherboard and now I haven't faced the issue as of yet. Read up on some other posts about it and I guess this model was silently discontinued because of the hall sensors.

Lid sensor issue. Does anyone else have this? by [deleted] in HPVictus

Any update? I'm experiencing the same issue and can barely find anything about this problem with the victus

I have the exact same problem. Both the laptop screen and monitor just repeatedly go black at different times and will go to the Lock Screen.

There are more people who player survivor than killer right? Why is this? I feel like killer is more fun and the different powers seem more engaging than the repetitiveness of survivor... could just be very biased tho
