HP ENVY m6-1178sa: broken hinge of m6 HP Envy

Hi, I've had this laptop for a while now and is out of warranty, but my hinge is now to the point where I have to close it very slowly for fear of breaking the screen. It is mainly the right hinge but the left is showing signs of that also. could you please tell what you, or else I can do about it because it's obviously a design flaw that was never really given on.

Concerning

Gerald

  • 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

  • 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:

    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.

    By the way; I found an interesting site how to replace Satellite 2435 LCD screen. This laptop is similar to the Sat 2450.

    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.

  • HP envy m6 broken hinge problem

    Bought a hp envy m6 in December 2012 for 630 books and 18 months later hinge snaps completely off causing the surrounding cases break. HP will do nothing about it because it is outside the one year warranty. I am disgusted as many other hp HP customers are not repair these free laptops for many customers with the same problem. Because hp would not put this issue on the recall list customers are left with broken laptops. I am disgusted with the service the customer of hp on this issue and I would advice anyone looking to buy a hp want to not waste their money on one. I've always had less expensive brands of laptops that have certainly taken longer than this expensive hp one. Shame on hp for this poor customer service

  • 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!

  • H * ENVY TouchSmart 17-j153cl: H * ENVY TouchSmart 17-j153cl broken hinge

    I searched this forum and Google and YouTube, but have not found a way to repair the left hinge on my laptop of 17-j153cl H * ENVY TouchSmart. The left hinge has separated from the main frame causing the bottom of the laptop to get out of the upper part. Fixing of the screen is still fine. The right hinge has not failed yet, but with the extra pressure in this regard, it may be only a matter of time.

    I am just out of warranty, unfortunately. Are there resources to attempt this repair? I wouldn't break my worst computer he is already going blind.
