HP G70-460US Bezel Display?

I recently disassembled my laptop in an attempt to repair the left side hinge; however, I discovered that it was not the hinge that was broken, but the plastic housings of the screws that hold the hinge in place.  A made a temporary repair with superglue, but two weeks later my laptop is back to snapping and cracking every time I open it.  What I would like to do is replace the display on my computer--not the screen itself, because there is nothing wrong with the LCD panel, but the plastic casing around it to which the hinge is attached.  Search engines such as Google and the HP website suggest parts such as the LCD bezel assembly; if I order this, will I be able to repair my problem?

The bezel is the top plastic piece. What you need is the display housing or display back cover.

LCD back cover - For 17-inch display panel
RoHS: Modified 
If you google the part number you can find it on ebay and elsewhere but the HP price is pretty fair.
The screw holes are likely damaged because the hinges have seized up. They still look OK but they have become too diificult to move so it puts stress on the screws. You need to replace the display back and the hinges.

  • Asus Laptop (G1, G2, G5, G70, G71) OLED display: Command line utility.

    Greetings.
    Yep. You did read the subject line properly. There is a new command line utility in town.
    To be more exact, there are two small utilities that I have designed for this little OLED -display. (Links at the end of this post)
    To anyone still in confusion, let me show you:
    Some Asus laptops comes with this neat little status display, but few softwares around to utilize them.
    Specially when it comes to the Linux operating system.
    What I've made here, is a simple and easy to use command line utility that communicates with the display.
    But it doesn't stay at "simple". It also has a few advanced features, which is described in detail in the README and their --help sections.
    With this utility and a bunch of simple pixmap images, anyone can easily create messages, animations and transitions without the need of deep knowledge of the underlying system.
    This makes it perfect for boot animations, event updates, status changes and alike.
    Short video-demostration:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2i8Twa4h_iI
    X11 Pixmap Format
    To get starting, you need a set of pictures.
    You should, and is encouraged to create these yourself, and if you do, please share your creations with us here. I will update a list of your creations in this post accordingly.
    These utilities can, at the moment, only read xpm images. Most drawing programs can handle this today so hat shouldn't be a problem.
    There is a preferred format, but other formats are possible:
    *  Colordepth: 1 bit (Monocrome)
    *  Height: 32 pixels
    *  Width: 128 pixels (for G1 and G2) or 256 pixels (for G5, G70, G71 ...)
    There are a few prepackaged XPM images that can be used any way you see fit.
    GIMP is the tool I used to create the pictures and animations.
    Installation.
    To install: Read INSTALL. Keep in mind: 'bin' and 'conf' folder relies on eachother, so they should stay together. I plan to improve this, but that's another story.
    Permissions: Again. Read the 'INSTALL' file. You need rw-access to two class nodes:
    /sys/class/asus_oled/oled_1/picture
    /sys/class/asus_oled/oled_1/enabled
    Doesn't exist??? ... did you read the INSTALL and README?... aw... well.. here's a hint:
    # modprobe asus_oled && ls -l /sys/class/asus_oled/
    The module should already exist, and if you're running Arch Linux on that laptop with the default kernel, it's already loaded.
    The modules comes with the Linux kernel itself (Staging area). Nothing else needed to be done. Isn't that awesome?
    If you happen to run a custom kernel, reconfigure it and activate 'asus_oled' as a module. Recompile, install and eat icecream.
    (Icecream part is very important)
    Quickstart.
    Once you created your awesome xpm image, you want it to live on the OLED display. This is the command:
    $ asus_oled-ctl --static-picture My-Awesome-128x32-Pic.xpm
    Explanation: '--static-picture' just simply converts and loads a picture onto the display and exits. Nothing fancy really.
    You haven't created a picture yet? .... horrible drawing skills? ...
    Well ... *sigh* ... Try one of the prepacked pictures then. 128x32_archlinux-logo1.xpm should suffice.
    You find it under pictures/logos/
    Success? Yay! Have some more icecream!
    Next thing you might be interested in, is animations.
    Animations is pretty much just a series of static images inserted one after another in a rapid manner.
    So get to it and convert the whole Star Wars saga to a series of 128x32 monocrome XPM pictures...
    ... or just make a short animation of your liking... and SHARE IT!
    Need a neat command to show your animation skills on the display? Here it is:
    (NOTE: There's a bug that causes this utility to have serious trouble with spaces in paths and files. I'm aware of it. Just avoid spaces for now... )
    $ asus_oled-ctl --cycle 50,10 path/to/my/awesome/animation/*
    Explanation: '--cycle' cycles through all the pictures it's given. The argument '50,10' tells it to delay each frame 50 milliseconds, and loop through them 10 times.
    If you instead wanted one loop instead of 10 and decrease the speed to 100 milliseconds per frame? Just change it accordingly:
    $ asus_oled-ctl --cycle 100,1 path/to/my/awesome/animation/*
    Still a bit confused on how the animations should be set up?
    Have a look at the prepacked examples found under pictures/animations/
    Hey! why not test one of the examples out:
    $ asus_oled-ctl --cycle 50,10 pictures/animations/Arch-ripple_loop/*
    Want it to be endless? Set the loop part to 0, and it will loop forever, or until you run out of power. (You can hit CTRL+C to interrupt)
    $ asus_oled-ctl --cycle 50,0 pictures/animations/Arch-ripple_loop/*
    You might have noticed it took a few seconds before the animation started from the point you hit [Enter]. (And that it took some CPU to do it)
    It's because the utility have to convert the images to a more fitting format before it goes ahead.
    Fortunately, there's a remedy to that delay. It's called cached slots. What it means is that one can tell the utility to store the converted animation data in a storage slot for later use.
    Here's how to do it:
    Step 1: Convert your awesome animation, and store it into a named cache-slot called 'MyAwesomeAnimation'.
    $ asus_oled-ctl --generate-cache MyAwesomeAnimation path/to/my/awesome/animation/*
    It will crunch your pictures for a few seconds, and then exit normally.
    Wait.... WHAT??? ... You did convert Star Wars whole saga?... Wow!!!... That will take an eternity to crunch through... =O
    Once it's done (Hopefully this site still lives when it is) we can now see what cache slots we have in the storage:
    $ asus_oled-ctl --show-cache
    There's your Star Wars saga... *erh*.. awesome animation. If you did a full install, you might notice a few other slots too. You can test em out if you'd like.
    Now to play that cached animation:
    $ asus_oled-ctl --cycle 50,5,MyAwesomeAnimation
    Notice how the animation starts almost instantly this time. That's what cache is for.
    Want to delete any of thos annoying and horrible slots?
    $ asus_oled-ctl --delete-cache MyAwesomeAnimation
    Now a few other commands to try out and discover what they do:
    $ asus_oled-ctl --power off
    $ asus_oled-ctl --power on
    $ asus_oled-ctl --clear
    $ asus_oled-ctl --static-picture pictures/devel/ASUS-logo_reversed.xpm
    $ asus_oled-ctl --help
    $ xpm2asus_oled pictures/logos/128x32_archlinux-logo1.xpm
    $ xpm2asus_oled --output ansi pictures/logos/128x32_archlinux-logo1.xpm
    $ xpm2asus_oled --help
    I hope that I've introduced the utilities for you and awaken your interest in this otherwise useless little display with a neat ASUS-logo on it.
    Now get on to it and create some awesome logos and animations for us all to use.
    I will update this utility every now and then, and hopefully include some of your animations with the package.

  • Mini display incompatible with older ADC-displays?

    I have no problem connecting my 23" aluminum bezel display in my office to my new 13" MBP, but when I wanted to hook up my older model 20" Cinema Display (plastic grey bezel) at home, the display was not recognized. Does anybody know if this is indeed the case?
    Thanks,

    For no reason, the display started working. Perhaps the connection was not fully established before. But it works and has been working for a few days now.

  • DV7 - 1020us: Removal of the Front Plastic/Glass Cover of the display. Is it possible?

    Hi.I have a Pavilion DV7 - 1020US Somehow, and i don't know how, some particles of dust probably, are between the glass protection and the lcd.Before you say it's dead pixels... No, it's not dead pixels, it's really some kind of dust or anything like... anyway, regardless of the cause, i want to disassemble the display AND take off the LCD screen. I managed to remove most of the parts following this Maintance and service manual for the DV7 Series, found along some others at http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/manualCategory?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=3754328 But in this manual, starting at page 76 and following the steps from 1 to 24 (As the manual says, steps 25 and beyond refers to models equiped with brightview display, mine seems to be the AntiGlare thing), there's no explanation in how to remove the LCD Screen... The lcd Screen is protected in the front by some glass or plastic thing, and i found no way to remove it... I already searched the forum, and the solution posted here mentions a link that open just a HP's blank page... Anyway in the same thread, the user m5tech replies this: "The video did not show the removal of the LCD Screen. The LCD is glued to the edges of the LCD front cover.(...)"So It seems that the video solution in this thread shows the same procedures that's in the manual i mentioned. Searching over the net, i found nothing that explains how to completely disassemble the display...I only find things like this good tutorial, but as mentioned on the manual above, this is another display model for the same notebook model, mine disassembles from the back, and the bezel can not be removed that way... So let's forget what's the point of doing this, what's the cause of the problem...I just want to entirely remove the LCD screen and replace it, how do i do this?Is it possible for this model? if it helps or just for curiosity, here is some images of how is the Display disassembled at the most i could do... Front (it's possible to see the particles too)Back (All possible until now removed: Display enclosure or Back Cover, Webcam/Microphone Module, Downside Bezel, Display inverter and the Hinges.  I really hope that someone knows how to remove the lcd screen.Please help me, i will be very thankful!!!  

    Hi,I'm having the same problem, 2 yrs later. I did get the back off.  In the HP Maintenance Manual, it appears they may have grouped the dis-assembly for both types: with bezel, without bezel (mine).   I took out the front bottom screws (behind the rubber plugs).  One screw was missing (found it inside).  After the 2 screws are out, it took some gentle prying of the back lid to release it.   I used the edge of a pocket knife just inside the plastic, rotated it to bite, using the side of the knife to nudge the back cover up.  I did this all along the bottom, being careful not to go to far in and cut something.  I also used a small flat tip screwdriver to keep the space open between the front & back panels.  It took a while but it did release. The entire back cover is lined with clips.  The bottom ones are different as they allow the back to slide up...about 3/16''.  Once you slide it up, it stops.  (*** Careful...the logo cable is attached) The back can then be pulled up to disconnect the cable. I found my model number on the back like some of the links showed.  I included the links I used to piece this together.  Thanks for the info and start point. I'm going to order the LCD and go from there. Kozzy7 http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/manualCategory?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=3754328 http://partsurfer.hp.com/Search.aspx?SearchText=FF214UA http://www.blisscomputers.net/hp-pavilion-dv7-1020us-laptop-lcd-screen-17-wxga.aspx http://www.smartmicrousa.com/HP_PAVILION_500841-001_LCD_SCREEN.aspx?gclid=CJyXueD98bsCFaxr7AodMH4Ajw           

  • For Full performance You need a Higher voltage AC Adapter Message

    Hello,
    I have a HP G70-460US Laptop since October 10,2009. About three days ago, the laptop started showing me a system message about the AC Adapter. The message says: For Full performance you need a higher voltage AC adapter. I verified the AC Adapter and the temperature was normal. The battery was charging OK. I had the laptop connected to a power strip, so I connect the laptop directly to the wall outlet. The next day, my wife was trying to use the laptop, and the battery had no charge. I unplugged and plugged again the AC Adpter and started charging again, but, the system keeps posting the same error message as before. My laptop is usually connected to a electrical outlet.
    What can be the problem?

    We are also getting this same message with a new G60-506US laptop just placed in service with the factory HP A/C adapter. 
    Looks like someone from HP needs to get into this!

  • Discolouration solved?

    I bought a white 2GHz MacBook soon after they were released (produced during the 20th week) and it soon developed the yellow discolouration of the track pad button and palm rest area. I waited until Apple acknowledge the problem and provided a solution before calling Apple Care. Apple agreed to have it repaired so I took it to a local Apple retail store for service. As it was only a cosmetic issue (although a definite defect) I brought it in once I got a call that the parts had arrived.
    It appears that Apple is using a new part for the top case (including the keyboard, track pad, button) and bezel (the frame around the display that includes the MacBook name). Specifically the parts listed on the repair sheet are:
    885909137510 Housing, Top Case with Keyboard, Version 2
    885909137527 Bezel, Display, Version 2
    On first impression, the plastic of the new parts definitely appears to be different than the original. The fit is also better than the original parts I received. My machine arrived with slight tool marks on the top case palm rest area and the original parts appeared to suffer from poor injection molding. On the original parts the narrow region between the track pad button and the latch indent was warped such that it would rub against the track pad button and make for inconsistent resistance. Some clicks would take extra pressure to register. The original bezel also appeared to be looser: I could press around the face of the bezel to make a better fit but it would still be loose in a few spots. The new bezel is tight with no play in the fit. The new top case has an even clearance around the track pad button. Time will tell if the new plastic is less porous than the previous parts but so far it does look better.
    I've dealt with Apple Care a few times in the past and have been consistently impressed with the service I received. Although the parts took a bit longer to arrive this time (no big deal to me as the machine was still usable), it took less than 6 hours from the time I dropped off my machine until it was ready for pick-up! Much better than the possible 3-5 days. All told I've been very pleased with this machine. Thanks Apple for acknowledging the problem and attempting a fix (only time will tell if the new plastic is as durable and cleanable as the iBook).
    Macbook White 2GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    i just took my macbook in also, for discoloration. they replaced the keyboard and topcase, but not the screen bezel. which is fine because my screen bezel wasn't discoloring.
    i agree, apple service at the store i bought it in was so easy and hassle-free! i got mine back 2 hours after i gave it to them. luckily they had the part on hand.
    you're right, it is a different kind of plastic. it feels "harder" and less porous than the old one. getting a new keyboard was a plus for me.. my old keyboard's down-arrow key was really buggy. it didn't register unless i pushed it pretty hard. on the new keyboard, it seems the keys are slightly higher and have more travel than the old one.
    all in all, i'm impressed with apple service. (this is my first mac, but i'm sure not my last!)

    HI RDC1950:
    Thank you for your response.
    I regret you have still not been able to locate the hinges.
    Have you tried the local hardware store or computer shop to see if they have any?
    Have you tried Googling laptop hinges to see if it could be located anything online.
    Hanaya is a manufacture of Friction Hinges you may be able to  locate  the necessary  hinges there.  click here.

  • [Rant] T440s - Defective UltraNav, defective keyboard, defective display bezel and horrible support

    Hi! I'll just need to let off some steam and maybe someone even has a suggestion for me what to try.
    1) Apparently, my trackpad is defective. It sometimes fails to recognise clicks and the middle mouse button does not work at all. At frist, I thought this was due to driver issues, but after the firmware upgrade didn't work I came to the conclusion that the hardware is faulty.
    2) My TrackPoint doesn't stay where it should stay. The red rubber thing is mounted on a grey plastic cap which should stick to the keyboard. However, my plastic cap always comes off. The TrackPoint always sticks to my finger and then falls out. Seems to be a defective keyboard, although it was never handled inappropriately.
    3) The display bezel isn't assembled properly. I've read this from many people here in the forums, so it is a known issue. The thin plastic front cover isn't glued to the bezel and comes off in the right bottom of the screen and at the same point, the bezel once detached from the display lid, but at least now holds after I pressed it back on.
    You would think Lenovo would provide some business-class support for a business notebook. After calling and providing pictures, I was told to wait for a further email. I didn't receive one until almost two weeks later because they managed to mistype my address three times. I had already provided pictures, but they wanted more. I sent more, sufficient to see the issues. They still told me to send more pictures. Obviously, I already sent enough and the best quality my camera can shoot, so I sent links to pictures in this forum from people having exactly the same problem. Still, "please send detailed photos".
    I was also told to try installing a Lenovo pre-load in order to see if this fixed the trackpad problem. Guys, I already did four clean installs of Windows 7 and 8.1. With and without Lenovo drivers and with every available driver version. I can tell it's defective and a Lenovo pre-load doesn't change anything. My machine didn't come with a Windows licence, so I couldn't install a Windows with pre-load. Their suggestion was for me to send the notebook to a repair centre so they could wipe my hard disk, install a pre-load and see if the issue is still present (yes, it will be because the hardware is defective and it is your responsibility to fix it!).
    I put the ticket on hold because this is unacceptable for me. I will now ask the vendor to return the machine or get a replacement. Sorry Lenovo, but that's not how you make satisfied customers.

    Well... My organization has just dropped Lenovo ThinkPads from the list of recommended machines. The reasons being dismal ergonomics (the main reason) due to the clickpad and persistent quality problems.
    We were a ThinkPad-only shop for about 15 years. That is over now.
    This is very, very sad. I would pay a reasonable premium to get something like W540 with the best display, but the old keyboard (centralized and not a brain-dead positioning like the new one) and proper buttons for the mouse.
    Lenovo is really, really determined in killing the ThinkPad range.
    Hence, just return the machine. And buy something else.

  • Should I separate the back bezel from my display?

    Hi,
    Just got a used iBook G4 with a display showing three light spots. They are definitely caused by pressure from the back bezel or lid behind the display. My thinking is that there are some bumps or debris caught between the back bezel and the display screen. I want to separate the two and clean out the bezel. I've looked at some how-to sites and they seem to indicate that to remove the display assembly I need to practically totally dismantle my iBook. I don't need to replace anything, though, so my question to you is; should I try to take the screen away from the bezel without disconnecting them from the rest of the iBook?

    Hey Mike,
    Well if you take those 4 hex screws out the back comes off easily.
    However you might want to take a look at this thread. This problem seems to be related to the PowerBook problem:
    /discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=474465
    Also if you google:
    "iBook screen light spots"
    http://tinyurl.com/6oeevq
    I've seen this problem and it seems to be from anomalies in the coating or possibly pressure.

  • Apple 22" Display (Clear Acrylic Bezel)-LCD Replacement?

    Did a real stupid thing and impaled my display on a Sharpie highlighter... don't ask.
    Is there anyway to replace the LCD panel on these older displays? I sprung some coin for a new HP w2207h and am just not sure this is the right monitor for me. I had the Apple Display calibrated and working just beautifully. Now I have to go through the tweaking process all over again.
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!!

    That LCD panel has not been produced by LG for years and years. You would have to find a service or repair facility that had one as NOS (new old stock) which could take a lot of searching. Likely it would be easier to find someone selling the same monitor used than finding a replacement panel. And it would probably be cheaper, too.

  • Bent PowerBook G4 Display Bezel

    Okay here's the scene:
    I put my PowerBook on a music stand to practice some guitar stuff online. I reach down to pick something up, and hear "BAM"!!! I look up and see the back of the stand. I slowly realize that my computer is not on the stand any more. I quickly pick it up, but it is too late. I raise my hands and yell "STAND!!!" just like Captain Kirk in that famous scene.
    Alright, I didn't exactly do that, but this is a problem.
    Here is my video:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WyPNQc1r4o
    I also forgot to mention in the video that the display sticks out about a 16th of an inch in the front on the right side.
    And no, I can't afford a new screen assembly.
    Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks

    This is very likely a problem with the backlight, but just to be sure, try starting up the computer with the option key held down on your keyboard. If this works it will show your hard drive as a startup device with normal backlighting. This would indicate a software problem. Unlikely but possible.
    If the display still does not show a backlight, then you have a hardware issue. Contact Apple for a repair at 1-800-275-2273. Do you have an AppleCare Protection Plan for the PowerBook? If so it should be covered, assuming there is no accidental damage.
    Good luck.

  • New 27" iMac (2012) with Thunderbolt Display = Bezel Alignment?

    I know the previous generation iMacs (16:10 screen aspect ratio) did not physically align with LED/Thunderbolt displays when placed side-by-side. Since the new iMacs have a matching 16:9 screen, I am wondering if the two screens would physically align properly when used as dual displays?

    There is nothing wrong with Apple's refurbished machines, you're assuming they are returned with problems. These machines come with the same 1 year warranty as a new machines and are also eligible for AppleCare the same as a new machine. These machine are tested more than a new machine and if any issues are found they are fixed and re-tested. Apple puts machine into the refurb program for many many reasons, these can be new models were introduced and they're clearing old inventory, or scenarios like a husband bought new machine and the wife made him return it for spending money, or a possible defect. Don't take my word for it though search and you'll see Apple's refurbished machines have a terrific reputation.
    However I'm getting from reading your posts you are looking for reasons to not get a Mac and stay with Windows. If that's the case they by all means stay with what you know.

Maybe you are looking for
