There must be said that plastics degrade as manufacturers designed them to fail after some time, this means that all hinges will break eventually by means of stress, heat coming from the normal operation or just a fall or an unintentional blow. This procedure showed in the video might work but epoxy resin doesn't mix well with plastics and it was a poor quantity used here, I recommend drilling some holes through the plastics in order to the resin goes both sides from the bottom plastic and this creates a better grip. Cheers!

If I may add, there’s a tensioner in the hinge that in the long use gets too tight that’s why the hinge turns hard and it’s puts stress on the screws until it breaks connection with the plastic case. Try to turn this tensioner a bit to lossen up but not too much that the screen doesn’t stand up on its own. Then you can firm up again the holding screws or as what the video suggest, put glue

Bro sometimes in the video you opened and closed the lid in wrong way. Should be open from center not from sides to spread equal stress to both hinges.

[@pijushdebbarma7979]

You should clean the area before applying the paste. However good tutorial 🤙

[@talktodipayan]

Open the laptop screen by pulling it from the center. This way the force distributes to both the hinges. (Please don't open like the way you did as it gives more pressure on one hinge and you would break one hinge soon).

As of now : Feb 2020 - Hinge Still Intact.

Thank you.

[@sergiormalves]

I did exactly what you showed and now my laptop has come back to life. Thanks a lot!!

[@OctoberFox]

Did this on my old HP Envy M6 (which is still a great little powerhouse to this day). Worked like a charm on one of the hinges where the screws had nothing to latch into. I am very amazed by the results, and very thankful for the tips given here.

Excellent tutorial.. used when my first hinge broke, back again after 2 years for my second hinge.

[@sizzis2045]

Thank youu for the video, that's exactly what I needed to find. Good thing this is the first result I saw on the seach results too.

[@negipushpendra]

looks great. Nice tutorial dear friend. but i m scared doing it myself however i will

What I like to do whenever I get a new laptop (if there are no warranty label or if hinges are accessible from the screen inside trim) is to ALWAYS loosen the hinge nut just slightly and put a cotton ear slab a tiny bit of runny oil (not dense one) just brush the slab upon the hinge. This will make your hinges last years without any modifications like the one in the video. However if you happen to have a broken hinge, make sure before doing the "FIX" in the video to place the original bolts and nuts, (the ones that are embedded in the plastic, most of the time they stay in the enclosure) remove old plastic, clean with some sandpaper to roughen up the surface of the enclosure so that the nuts will act as anchors in the epoxy and the epoxy will have enough grip on the sanded area.

Exactly the same thing happened to my laptop. Great video. THUMBS UP.
