HP Envy M6-1125DX Broken Hinge

I have an HP envy m6-1125dx laptop; the left hinge broke a while back. I was using it as is but in due time everything got far worse. Now all I have is ripped out LCD screen and the basis of the computer. I am using my laptop as a desktop.  When the issue first started I tried anything from tape to glue to make it work. Since the issue started right around the time the warranty expired I did not try any course of action. However I would like you guys to know that this is not the first time I am seeing the issue. Starting from pavillions until envy I have seen many cases where the hinges gets ripped out. And to be honest it looks like it is the same in the new form factor. I have receipts and serial numbers whole 9 yards. Thank you for reading.

  • HP Envy 15-JO63CL broken hinge problem

    My hinge on the right side of the laptop has broken. This is obviously from a manufacturing flaw, because I have babied this thing because I need it for work. The screw for the right hinge falls out, and little chunks of plastic sound like they are rattling around inside of it. When I open and close the laptop it pries open along the right edge.  
    I bought this laptop 8 month ago, but it says I am out of warranty.  
    Can you please help me fix this issue? This was an expensive laptop and the hinge should not wear out after only 8 month of very gently use.  
    Also, after some research it has become obvious that this is common problem for this laptop, and HP laptops in general. 

    This is my 5th HP laptop and I haven't had any issues until this one.  I have an HP Envy that is just over a year old and the left side hinge is pulling out of the laptop and pushing the top of the keyboard section up when I try to close it.   The laptop hasn't been dropped or damaged in any way.  What can I do? 

  • HP Envy - B5T12UA#ABA - Broken Hinge

    I purchased a HP Envy B5T12UA#ABA. It has always sat on my work desk and has not been moved around or dropped.   After opening and closing the laptop over time (*note: gently with normal care) the left hinge connecting the screen to the keyboard area seems to have cracked.   This has casued the screen cover area to come unglued and caused damage to the screen when being viewed. I have had issues with HP products in the past. (i.e Code Purple with an HP Pavilion Desktop after factory reset) I am out of warranty and need this issue resolved.  When making a big purchase like this i expect a certain level of quality, and HP has failed to provide that to me on multiple occasions. Please contact me to discuss possible solutions. Thanks

  • HP Envy m6-1125dx Laptop Hinge Issue

    I have the same issue with my m6-1125dx as everyone else with the hinges. It seems to be very common and I don't know why this problem hasn't been resolved.  This issue is starting to cause the "lip" on my screen to detach. Can you please give a resolution?

  • Broken hinge on HP ENVY

    I've been reading posts from others who've been having the same issues with broken hinges on the HP envy. My daughter's laptop is, of course, now out of warranty and a hinge is broken. If so many people are having the same problem, is there anything that can be done? It isn't that old, and I'd prefer not to have to buy another one.

    You could  order a new hinge kit by entering your Model number at HP PartSurfer:

  • Broken hinges on HP Envy Sleekbook

    Hi - I hope someone can help. I bought a HP Envy Sleekbook for my home business less than a year ago from PC World in Bath, UK. 
    I have the same issue of broken hinges and damaged screen surround as a number of people on here. The problem has simply arisen from opening and closing the screen - the laptop has never left my house, nor been dropped or mistreated in any way. 
    Could somebody please point me in the right direction to get it fixed. I have the original receipt dated 31/01/13 and box.
    Many thanks

    I have forwarded your post to the right people for their review. You should hear back from someone shortly via Private Message on this forum.

  • Broken hinges on HP Envy 15 Touchsmart j100 TX Notebook

    I bought a HP Envy 15 Touchsmart j100 TX last year. Within the first few months, the right-edge of the hinges beneath the monitor loosened. I showed it to a HP Gadgets and Gizmos retailer (from where I got the laptop) and they said its just a couple of loose screws, that I can screw in and keep using. Which is how I used it for over the year.
    But now the right hinge has completely come off and I submitted the laptop for repair. The warranty is expired a few months back, and the repair was estimated at INR 17000, approx USD 275, (both top cover and base need to be replaced). There was no physical damage, no crack, nothing. I am not sure how they ascertained the need to replace pretty much the whole laptop body.
    I feel disheartened and cheated. If I had been given the right advise by the retailer, I could have gotten things fixed in time within warranty. Now looking at all these forums and seeing how common the broken hinges problem really is, i feel terribly stupid.
    HP, how can you let such things happen to your customers? What should I do now to get my laptop fixed, other than paying atrocious money?

  • HP Envy 6 1210sw - both hinges broken, already repaired two times

    Dear Support Team  / Forum Users, I am writing to seek for advice on the famous 'broken hinges' issue, this time with my 2 years-old HP Envy 6 1210sw laptop.  Both of the screen hinges are broken now (for the third time), which makes it impossible to use the laptop comfortably of course. This particular machine has already been serviced twice due to the same issue - I have always got a new screen lid replaced. However, as this is a design fault, the hinges would be broken again after 4-6 months of usage. The warranty on the machine has ended in April 2015, however the warranty on the screen lid / hinges must have been extended, as they have been replaced. It makes no sense though to replace them over and over again with a new screen lid, as they will brake anyway. HP, please advise what could be done in this matter - do you replace the badly designed machines with the new ones? Thank you for your support.

  • Broken hinge ENVY m6

    Like may others, I also have a broken hinge on my ENVY m6.  Looking at these posts it seems to be a frequent problem and something HP should stand behind.   I'm out of warranty, but am not ready to purchase a new computer.  How can I get this repaired?

  • HP Envy m6-1090ee (Left Hinge damaged)

    Hi
    I had purchased a HP Envy m6-1090ee model laptop at Dubai on July 2012. The laptop looked really good, with attractive price. I purchased the laptop and started to have problems since day one.
    1. Excessive heat generation- since the air vents are the bottom face of the laptop and there is no way the hot air can vent out. I am expecting the laptop to have internal damages over a period of time. 
    2. The left hinge connecting the screen and the keypad, has been  damaged. I am guessing this damage has been caused due to the excessive heat generation. Usally the left side of the laptop heats up much more than the right side. This has resulted in the outside of the screen face to open up while opening and closing the laptop. Thus exposing the internal components to further damage and heat. 
    My warranty has expired. HP has to do something about this, for its customer. Since I have seen similar complaints about this product. 
    Thank you
    Alex Robert

    Dear Advance 23.  I received an email to my personal address which told me that you had sent a private message on the HP Forum related to my Envy Sleekbook problem.  Actually, the "problem posting" you referenced was not my posting, although my problem was similar.  HP has taken care of my "seized hinge" problem to my total satisfaction.  I have not figured out how to go to my original posting so that I can mark it "Solved".  I have never understood how message boards work, so I am not surprised that I cannot find my original posting.  I am not sure that HP will take care of everyone with broken hinges in the same way they took care of me because I bought my laptop directly from HP, and it had been used very little with respect to opening and closing the hinges.  In any case, I am totally satisfied with the response I got from HP in resolving my issue.

  • Broken hinge

    BROKEN HINGE/SCREEN!!!  My last HP was two years old when the right hinge started acting funny, I babied it but to no avail it broke.  It broke on the inside as well as the outside, like came unattached inside.  I chauled it up to being used heavily and bought a new HP (because I love them).  Fast forward almost one year to the day of the new one purchase date and boom, broken again.  What is funny if that my warranty was up 3 days ago and now it breaks.  Seems like the hinge cover is fine, it is actually inside where it is broken.  I opened the screen today and it almost came completely apart.  What is the deal?

    I too am suffering Toshiba`s broken hinge problem. When I called they said that they do not have a problem and never have known one  break(what liars they are) when I called them up with a broken left hinge same as you. They wanted £200 to fix it and £80 just to send back to me, as they had sent it to Germany from the UK to see if there was a problem??? I have asked my Bank to refund my money that I bought the laptop (Toshiba Satellite) under the "goods not of merchantable quality" law in the UK as I had bought it on my credit card. Toshiba certainly do have a manufacturing problem with their laptops and should recognise this fact instead of employing people to deliberately tell people that they do not have any recorded problem with their hinges. I will never buy another Toshiba product ever again as the so called Guarantee is not worth the paper it is written on....

    Got it in May 2010. The left hinge is almost coming off. Called up Toshiba support and after 20Qs, was told that this is a physical damage and will not be covered. It will cost 150-250$ to get this repaired. I was not satisfied with this as the laptop has been handled well and have never seen this kind of issue with any other Dell laptops I have. When I pushed back, I was told that some supervisor will view my case and probably respond on Monday (12/20/2010)
    On a hunch searched for broken hinge on the site and saw a number of posts about this problem. 
    I am now even more convinced that there is a manufacturing defect which Toshiba has not bothered to solve. My cynical view is that getting 150$ for each of these problem might be netting a good margin.
    Have posted this to add my own experience and be counted. 
    Will update once I speak to the aforementioned supervisor on Monday
    cheers
