My absolute favorite part of the video is 5:14. Especially since you applauded them for how well they packaged the screen haha. I don't know how you keep getting this unlucky. Another great video Jojo!. Keep it up.
I dont know how I got so unlucky but I am so happy that the ebay seller was as amazing as they were. If you think a broken screen is dramatic, wait until the motherboard swap video.
Would you say the newer screen is easier to view at different angles or about the same as the original? These HP screens throw me off when you are not looking at it exactly perpendicular
Hello. Your video is amazing! Thanks. Question : Is ips o no ips your new screen? I don't know if all screen g3 1920 will work in my g1. People say me I'll need another cable.
Hello! Thank you for your nice comment and question. I truthfully do not know if my screen is IPS or not but I truthfully do not think that matters. As long as you have a NON-touch screen 30pin eDP cable, you will be fine. The touch screen models use the 40pin connector. One thing you could do is open your laptop and count the pins I hope this helps you and good luck!
Its really hard to say since these machines have been out for almost 10yrs now. I personally get between 2 and 2.5hrs of light use, so web browsing and office suite application use. Thanks for watching and take care!
I have a question can I install Linux on HP Ultrabook 840 not sure model version. Also the computer doesn't work. Could it be screen my issue was at first the power button was on but no screen I looked up couple of videos none seem to work I haven't changed any parts though. Now after a few months the power button doesn't even turn on is there anything I can do. Sorry if I'm bothering you.
Hi, I am going to try and respond to all your questions and comments here: 1. Yes, you install Linux on this machine. 2. Have you tried plugging the laptop into a monitor to verify if the screen is broken or not? 3. Since you state that the power button doesn't turn the machine on any longer. Do you have the laptop plugged in? If it is plugged in and it still doesn't turn on, then it may need to get a surface charge before it will turn on. So just allow the machine to charge over night. Then plug a monitor in it and turn on the laptop.
Hi Dwayne, thanks for watching the video and for commenting. Can you please explain your question a bit more? Are you asking if there are IPS panels for the laptop or can you install an IPS panel in the laptop?

@@joesdiy4260 I can't wait to see what new horrors await you
I can't wait for 10 videos down the line when you've upgraded this thing into a CERN particle accelerator
Thanks Chris! Hey guys! So in an HP G3, it came with a Cern Particle Accelerator and you can totally hot rod the g1 laptops to accept the cern!
I'm waiting for your next video on g2 hardware update 😃
I am editing it now. I should be done next week. Thanks!

Hello!! Thanks for watching and commenting. Sadly, I don't think it makes it easier to view at different angles.

@@joesdiy4260 it's works. I get full hd in 840 g1. Thanks!
I am really happy to hear this!! Enjoy the crispy screen!
How long does the laptop lasts? 50Wh is quite a lot but some people reported 4-5 hours of use

I was going to use it for python and game development.
I am getting new PC but of I could fix the laptop I was going to turn it into my programing and game development laptop. I'm new to that stuff.
