How can I replace broken screen in HP Pavilion dv8 notebook?
How can I replace a broken screen in an HP Pavilion dv8 notebook? This is a brand new notebook but I accidentally dropped it from the desk and broke the screen. HP doesn’t cover this under warranty, so I have to figure out how to replace the screen myself. Is it possible?
Yes it’s possible to replace the broken scree but not easy.
Here’s official service manual for HP Pavilion dv8 series notebooks. It’s a 3.3MB pdf file. You’ll find disassembly instructions in there.
First, you’ll have to disassemble the notebook and remove the display panel assembly as it shown on the page 4-35 in the service guide.
Second, you’ll have to disassemble the display assembly and remove the LCD screen as it shown on pages 4-35 through 4-40.

Hey
.
Recently, my laptop because faulty with the screen. Whenever I tilted the screen, it would become white + I would have to continue to tilt the screen till it went back to normal. Or, I could push a certain part of the screen. However, I seem to of pushed the screen, it which a black mark inside appeared with a crack in the middle. It runs down the side of the screen, however, only at the top is it back. When I turn the computer on, of works perfectly, the sounds etc, but the crack makes the screen unable to see anything. If I move the screen quickly, things appear for a split second. So do I have to buy a new laptop to resolve this?
