What did you guys think of this video? Anything i can improve on? I like to help people out if they want to try this on their own!
I had to sort through a dozen videos before I found this one, which is what I wanted in the first place.
This means alot, thanks!
Hp should do it for free. Why in the world did they think it was a good idea to use plastic reinforcement/bracing... It should have been hardened metal housing as part of the panel backing! Have 3 of x360 envy and they all got hinge backing plastic crap broken. I have ordered one of the panel backing and will try repairing one of them.
Your absolutely right, it’s a bad design from the start but it is more practical being that plastic is more lighter than metal, if they implemented just the bottom half of the back cover metal it can work instead of the whole back being made of metal and adding a considerate amount of more weight. I guess they look at it from the consumers POV but don’t really care about the cons etc; not alot of people like you actually become aware of the problem but instead think it’s their fault for breaking so kudos to you for figuring it out.
How did it go? Mine had the same problem. Where did you buy the parts and did you use this video as a guide?
is there an alterative quick fix for this? my screen seems to be popping out when i try to close it furhter and open it further becuase of the hinge. I'm afriad to close it and the screen gets more messed up. Currently, the PC is working fine i just can't fold it down all the way or open it all the way
Try holding the corner of the screen or holding the hinge with your hand firmly every time you open or close it
I have the same issue , How much approx range should this cost? I think my HP centre is trying fo scam me
The part cost is anywhere from $50-$100

Omg thank uuuu
Thanks anytime!
Do you think this is safe for a beginner to try to emulate/repair? I cant afford to repair/replace it mine and it just broke
I don’t think it’s a good idea for a beginner to try… it’s harder than it looks to be honest! You can definitely try it if you’re up for it. Have you got any quotes to fix it?
@@willfix1t unfortunately it just broke when I got home from work this evening but without going into too much detail tech repairs are a bit out of my budget
@@Tiatulip444 If you buy the part, i can repair it for you for no cost to help out
How much would a repair like this cost?
I normally would charge around $150. Sometimes it can be a lot of work
