Surface Pro 4 Discussion Thread

Anyone with LOT 1614 or higher?

 

There is a setting that enables that. I believe its under devices>keyboard or typing or something like that. There is a setting that makes the touch keyboard pop up even in desktop mode. It's not perfect, there are still some apps where it doesn't work, which is really frustrating, but it works with most apps.

 

Thank you for the on-screen keyb auto show when physical keyb not connected tip. Found it in settings.

 

A new Intel HD driver has been issued:

I had experienced the black screen couple times where I had to hold the volume button (is it up or down?) and the power button for 30 seconds to get it to restart. I suspected it was caused when keyboard is connected when it goes to sleep then keyboard removed while in sleep state so I try to avoid removing keyboard while in sleep state. I do a shutdown then remove keyboard.

 

anyone see this yet on a firmware update? I have a feeling it will prob be tomorrow since Tuesday is normally the driver day but who knows.... hopefully this fixes the black screen issues I have still (not as bad but I still have them)

 

I received it on Sunday....

 

weird, I didn't receive anything yet. my SP4 is still on the other version , is there a link to manually get it or should I just wait for it???? since its a video drivers and i still have some issues I would like to get it soon if I can.

 

Are you on the Insider fast lane upgrade path? If not you'll have to wait for the general release

yea I am not, but it looks like it was a general intel release. we will prob get it sometime today, just drive me crazy sometimes when I see someone get a driver and I don't get (since normally with SP updates I get them fast in most cases)
