G7-1358DX - broken hinge

Laptop friendly... except... hinge of the screen has decided to break... actually look down into the Pocket, something else may be violating.

We have two of them, and I wonder if this will happen with the other, so my question is, can I trouble myself, or just plan on throwing the laptop and find one with a less prone to rupture hinge?

Thank you, Bill

Thanks for the link, after a brief conversation of... it is out of warranty, we cannot help, buy a new printer HP... I went out and bought two new laptops. (not HP)... who do not have this problem (at least there no mention of the failure of the hinge on their forums.)

  • Satellite Pro L20 - broken hinge baseplate - where to find the parts?

    Hello

    First post here, so please excuse the lack of local etiquette.

    My son has a Toshiba Satellite Pro L20 with a broken hinge base plate. I'm calling it a base plate that I can not find the name of the part anywhere on the web so far.

    Its obviously the metal plate on the basis that the hinge attaches to.
    You can see it if you remove the battery.

    Nobody knows what is this part and where I could possibly buy one?

    Kind regards

    Jimmy

    Hello

    I think that in this case the ASP from Toshiba (certified partner) might help you.

    You must enter in contact of this ASP in your country and the technician should be able to order a compatible part for laptop.

    You will find here all the FSA all over the world:

    Hi did anyone know where I can get hold of a guide to disassembly to replace my broken hinge? I have the part, but want to make sure I have disassemble it properly. Any help gratefully received.

    Hello

    I would recommend not also remove and open Notepad by yourself if you do not have enough experience. It may be damaged parts instead of fix ;)

    Each laptop technician could make this work for a few dollars. so ask someone in your area.

  • HP ENVY Notebook PC m6: HP ENVY m6 broken hinge

    Hello. I've owned my laptop HP ENVY M6 for over 2 years now, so of course my warranty has expired. About 2 months ago or not, I noticed that the right hinge on my laptop has been raised then I inspected it and then pushed him down. This continued whenever I close the laptop with me pushing down from the hinge. The coating for the monitor also plastic bends whenever I close the laptop. These questions seem to be relatively minor at the time. Tonight, 09/12/15, when I went to close the laptop, the hinge completely gave way, broke and collapsed. The left side seems to be still intact. I noticed that inside the bottom right of the screen, a piece of metal was separated across the screen. I suspect that this piece of metal is what more or less kept the hinge in place for 2 + months that it has been broken. In other words, when the piece of metal gave way, so too does the already broken hinge.

    The HP ENVY laptop m6 always seems to be in working order other than the broken hinge. However, this means that I can not put anywhere at the present time. The ability to transport my laptop is very important for me because I am currently in College and I take a lot of my notes on my laptop

    I was wondering if there is anyway to have technical support on my laptop? I noticed that the broken hinges are a very common problem with the HP ENVY m6 (perhaps a manufacturing error) and hope it will be resolved as soon as possible.

    Thank you

  • WANT to m6: broken hinge WANT m6

    As perhaps others, I also have a hinge broken on my m6 DESIRE.  Looking at these posts there seems to be a common problem and something HP must stand behind.   I'm out of warranty, but I am not ready to buy a new computer.  How can I get this repaired?

    After posting my problem of hinge broken on this site, I was contacted by HP.  The first individual forwarded my information to the appropriate office.  This person contacted me and completely took care of my computer. The customer service was ourstanding.  In addition to take care of the broken hinge and the case, they also took care of all delivery charges.  My computer had not yet gone for 1 week.  I'm super impressed!

    my left hinge broke while installing ink... help

    I'm afraid that if it is broken, there is nothing you can do. You will need to do so because of the broken hing, or replace the printer. I'm sorry. You might be able to find a local MOM and pop shop who can fix it, but I don't know of any chain store that repairs the printer hardware.

  • ENVY m6 1125dx: HP Envy m6-1125dx computer laptop broken hinge

    I bought this laptop 3 years ago and my left hinge broke days ago. Now, I can't close the lid of my laptop without tension of the feeling of the plastic deformation. It keeps pulling on the plastic when closing or opening the lid (background cracking caused by the hinge). Some plastic fins are missing for the dissipation of the heat. I can't believe it's the HP product. I used to have a Toshiba laptop for a dozen years, and none of the equipment was broken. Please tell us how to solve this problem. Thank you!

  • Re: Need Satellite M30 - broken hinges - manual

    I have a question: my satellite m30 left hinge is broken and I want to fix. Where can I get a manual and the hinge (s) in europe (Austria)?

    Thanks for help.

    You won't get a disassembly manual for this laptop.
    I didn t find all downloads on the Toshiba page and I guess that these manuals are designed only for the FSA and not for public use

    It before, I think you need to contact an ASP in your country for details.

    Good luck buddy

  • HP15-g088ca: HP 15 laptop computer purchased less than 2 years ago. Broken hinge, display cases of separation. HP, please help.

    My son uses his laptop computer HP15 home to his office, rarely transporting.  He never gave it and a sweet user.

    The left hinge seems to be broken / defective, and separates the window.  For now, we are all leaving the screen open all the time, but it's a little awkward and the problem is certainly on a laptop less than 2 years old.

    Looking at the forum, it looks like a common problem.

    We are fans of HP in general, so I hope that this problem can be solved.

    Help, please.

    -Steve

    Hooray!

    HP solved the problem free of charge, including shipping in both directions and repair.

    It took ten days in total, and we used the laptop without a problem for about 10 days more.

    It seems that the hinges for laptop and the display case were entirely replaced, and no data has been lost.

    My son is thrilled to have his laptop in return, and to my eyes, HP just went through.

    I wouldn't hesitate to buy another HP product, although I confess in the hope that:

    (1) HP manufacuring no longer uses defective parts

    (2) HP treats everyone with this problem of hinge with the same care

    Thank you and HP support HP!

  • Satellite L20 - broken hinges

    I have a laptop of L20.
    The hinges or the plastic covering that is connected to the plastic cover of the open/close button is broken.
    That would be unwise, but I can email a photo of someone who can help.

    If I sent it to the shop of Toshiba, they will solve this problem?
    Is it replaceable? Or a waste of time!

    Help! IM afraid its disturbing the batteries.

    Hi Hannah

    Sad story, but you worry about don t. The hinges are certainly replaceable.
    A technician of the laptop could replace both hinges.

    You must contact the authorized Toshiba maintainer in your country.
    Here are the details:
