Diagnosing the Separating HP Envy x360 Screen

A professional HP Envy Hinge Repair was required for this x360 model (RepairID: #2178) that arrived with a separating screen on the right side.

The display assembly began pulling away from the frame. While it looks like a minor gap, there is a grave risk the screen will shatter. This danger urged the customer to bring the laptop to IT-Solve Adelaide immediately. Therefore, we provide specialized solutions to stop further damage before the glass panel cracks.
HP Envy Hinge Repair – Right Side Separation

Why 360-Degree Hinges Fail
This failure is a common occurrence with rotating hinges on both Lenovo and HP models. Although these laptops feature an aluminum chassis, the internal hinge support is often made of plastic. Manufacturers glue these plastic supports onto the back cover. Over time, the hinge becomes stiff and snaps the plastic mounts. Each time the screen opens, it pushes against the glass panel. Consequently, this mechanical stress inevitably cracks the screen. Our HP Envy Hinge Repair addresses the root cause of this structural weakness.
The Impact of Dust and Heat on AMD Laptops

When we took the laptop apart, we found significant dust collection on the fans. This AMD-based laptop likely never received service in its three years of existence. AMD processors run at higher temperatures, and their thin design causes them to clog quickly.

High heat increases fan speed, which sucks in more dust and fluff, eventually seizing the hinges. We removed the screen to reach the hinges and cleaned the dust mixed with factory grease. We also released the tightening nut to ensure smooth opening and closing.
Pioneering a Reliable Hinge Repair
To ensure longevity, we opt to repair the structure instead of replacing fragile plastic parts.



We run aluminum rivets through the back of the case and directly into the metal hinges. This method creates a metal-to-metal connection that eliminates the weak plastic support. These 360-degree rotating laptops face enormous stress. Our pioneered HP Envy Hinge Repair adds unmatched sturdiness that exceeds the original factory design. We carefully shave the excess rivet material to fit within the low-profile screen housing.
