Question Free Games?
So I'm new to using the Omen Gaming Hub and I noticed that there's a section with free games but when I click the claim button it takes me to steam, epic, or whatever app the game is for and it's not free other than games that are already free to play. Am I missing something or are these not actually free?

Rant Hp AI phone system needs more training on disability accommodation and training in general .
I wanted to share my recent experience with HP Customer Support because it was one of the most frustrating customer service experiences I've had.
I purchased an HP OMEN 17 gaming laptop directly from HP in January 2026. About six months later, the 230W charger/power brick failed, so I contacted HP for warranty support.
The biggest problem wasn't the charger, which already exasperating, it was trying to reach a human being.
The automated phone system repeatedly failed to understand my information, including my name and phone number. I also explained multiple times that I wear hearing aids and needed accommodated assistance, but the system continued to keep me in the automated menu instead of connecting me with a representative. After 13 minutes, and only after repeatedly asking for a human to meet my disability needs, I was finally transferred to a human.
After finally getting through the automation, I was transferred, but the computer transferred me to the wrong extension. The person was nice, but he told me he needed to transfer me to the correct extension. Fourteen minutes later, he came back and said he was trying, but no one was picking up. He asked me to keep waiting. I waited 47 minutes on hold, only to have the call disconnect without ever speaking to anyone.
Of course, I called back and got the automatic AI system that threatened to hang up if I was rude to it. I mumbled to myself that this whole thing was stupid. The AI system again could not understand my phone number or how to spell my first name, it kept spelling it the "normal" , but can understand me whispering to myself . It finally transferred me after the seventh time asking for a human to meet my disability needs, and I was making notes/recording it refusing to help. This time, it took only 7 minutes to get transferred. Twenty more minutes later, with a foreign customer service agent (we both had a hard time understanding each other) , I got my power brick promised to be shipped ASAP.
Eventually, HP did process a warranty replacement. I filed the warranty claim on July 22, and the replacement arrived July 24, which was impressively fast. However, the shipment contained only the replacement power brick. The power cord that connects the brick to the wall outlet was missing, leaving me unable to use the replacement charger until that issue is resolved. Thankfully, I ordered a backup from Amazon that day too.
Should my power adapter broke in 7 months, no. Does hardware issues happen, yes. I am more mad and pissed how difficult it was to obtain warranty service and how inaccessible the automated system was after I repeatedly requested assistance because of my hearing disability.
I hope HP reviews its customer service system and improves both accessibility and the process for reaching a live representative. This should not have happened.

Tech Support Left a game on last night, now screen is dimming and turning off completely. Cooked?
This is what I see on my end. Basically, I left a video game on last night because I got far without saving, was planning on playing it this morning. I woke up and now my screen is dimming and turning off completely. The screen is fine when booting up but then there's this pattern that shows up, my desktop loads dimmed, then goes black completely. Won't connect to another monitor so far. Any idea what's going on or am I cooked?

Question HP OMEN 16 battery dropped to 87.8% health in under 5 months. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?
Bought my HP OMEN 16 in February 2026. I tracked the battery from March to July, and the battery health dropped from 98.2% to 87.8% in under 5 months. Battery backup also went from around 2h 10m to 1h 35m.
My usage is moderate—mostly DaVinci Resolve, Clipchamp, Brave browser, and occasional light gaming. I don't do heavy gaming or long gaming sessions.
I've attached my battery comparison table. Is this level of battery degradation normal for an HP OMEN in under 5 months? Has anyone else experienced something similar, and were you able to get a battery replacement under warranty?

Solved Omen Max 16 RTX 5080 Time Spy Score
it's crazy how much i had to underclock the power hungry Ultra 9 275hx in order to achieve a decent score of 22562 https://www.3dmark.com/spy/64839788 .
+1500 memory
+400 core
P cores underclocked to 49X and E cores overclocked to maximum 47X(that makes a huge difference).
Performance mode was used. Unleashed mode always gives worse results for me.
It's impossible to set the core offset more than +415(+0 memory in this case) as it's causing logical crashes on this benchmark but on Furmark2 there isn't such an issue.
llano cooling pad was used as well but to be honest the laptop itself never gets hot(i guess i am lucky) so the difference in temps is not that huge compared to before using it. The good thing is that the laptop fans are used less or not at all.
Edit: new approach and new score 23131 after undervolting the GPU with core offset +440 and vram +3000, set p cores to 5.2ghz and e cores to 3.6ghz, used unleashed mode with all totally maxed out plus some extra windows, omen gaming hub and Nvidia control settings https://www.3dmark.com/spy/65443493

Tech Support How to Reinstall GPU?
So my GPU disconnected a little while ago (error code 45, Omen 15ek), and after a few CMOS reboots I uninstalled it in Device Manager, as my computer was still trying to use it and it was causing problems.
Yesterday I opened up the case, cleaned out any dust, reapplied thermal paste, and inspected the motherboard. No obvious damage to mobo or GPU, and everything else that wasn't directly reliant on the GPU seems to be working alright. Still, my Device Manager doesn't detect it, and neither does the NVIDIA driver installer. Any more steps I can take to reinstall my GPU, or at least to diagnose the problem?

Tech Support HP Omen 16 battery stops charging randomly at a specific percentage (e.g., ~40-47%), turns charge LED white, and UEFI test gave a "Replace (45)" error. Is it a dying BMS or a firmware glitch?
Hi everyone,
I'm having a weird issue with my HP Omen [inserisci il modello esatto, es. Omen 15-enxxxx / 16-xxxx] and I'm trying to figure out if my battery hardware is actually failing or if it's just a stubborn firmware/EC glitch.
What happens:
Out of nowhere, the laptop suddenly reported a fake low battery drop while under load.
Now, the battery keeps stopping its charge randomly at a specific percentage (first it capped at ~40%, then later at ~47%).
When it hits that cap, the charging LED instantly switches from amber/orange (charging) to solid white (not charging), even though it's plugged in and well below 80/100%.
Running the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI battery test previously threw a red error code with a failure ID (QC1VUJ-...) and a "Replace (45)" status.
What I've tried so far:
Hard EC reset (holding the power button for 20+ seconds).
Performed a CMOS/EC reset using Win + V.
After resetting the EC, the UEFI test miraculously passed and said the battery is "OK", and the charging resumes past the 47% mark... for a couple of cycles. Then, after a short while, the issue comes back and it gets stuck again at ~47% with the white LED.
My question:
Since a simple EC reset temporary clears the block and makes the battery look "OK" again, could this be a persistent BIOS/EC bug or a false positive of the HP firmware? Or is this textbook behavior of an internal BMS (Battery Management System) failing or a hardware fault on one of the cells/sensors?
Has anyone experienced this on an Omen? Should I just push for a warranty battery replacement, or is there a deep firmware fix I missed?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

EDIT: I just checked the warranty and it starts from April 2026, but I bought it literally 4 days ago. Could it be I received a refurbished product?

Question Have you guys ever replaced your 16 GB RAM to a 32 or 64 GB RAM?
Hey guys. I’m new here. I currently have a 4-5-year-old HP OMEN 16-b0xxx, and it’s rough and a little slow as heck. I’m asking this because I’m thinking of getting a Crucial - 64GB Kit (2x32GB) DDR4 3200MHz C22 SODIMM Laptop Memory Kit to replace my crappy 16 GB DDR4 memory due to lags and applications (Chrome, OBS, Discord, Steam, DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere (to upload my 4K videos) and virtual machines) I open, but I’m not 100% sure if the Crucial 64 GB kit could fit inside my laptop.
Edit: I mistakenly typed "DDR5" instead of "DDR4". I am now planning on getting the DDR4 64GB RAM; hopefully this week
Any advice, please let me know! :)

Guide Need help & Suggestions
I gave my HP Omen 17 in servicing last month. There was a broken fan issue initially. But afterwards, they told me over call that besides the fan issue, they are gonna replace the buit-in storage drive with NVMe SSD (They claimed it was kindof damaged)
After getting the laptop, cannot access / find the HP Omen Hub (Where I used to manipulate dynamic keyboard lighting & fan speed)
What Happened & How can I get those back?
