I see this is a rather old post, but I’m curious about something. I’ve looking at doing as many upgrades as possible to my laptop and I was wondering if it would be possible to replace the LCD screen with a touchscreen?

I’ve just replaced the screen on my HP DM4, but have a question about the webcam. It came loose when I removed the faulty screen. How do I position it under the bezel? I’m holding off on securing the bezel until I know.

Thanks very much for the guide, it was very helpful. I have one other question though. I’m trying to convert this laptop screen into an external monitor for another computer. I know that I need a LCD controller to hook up to the LVDS cable, but all the tutorials I’ve looked at for external monitors mention I also need a power supply for the display backlight, and I don’t see anything about the cable that provides that in this tutorial. I’m really confused, because I would assume you would also need to use that cable for replacing the LCD screen. Is the power cable included in the video cable you were talking about, or is it something else? Thanks very much

First, thank you so much for this guide. It is very clear and detailed. Now, my issue. We had the right hinge (side near ‘delete’ key) replaced recently while traveling out of the USA. After working fine for a few days, we came back to the USA and the display suddenly stopped working. It is all white with some dark black & blue smudge in the bottom right portion of the screen. I checked the display cable wiring and all connections are secure. Do you think it is the screen, or cable itself, or something else that needs to be replaced? I can send photos if needed…would greatly appreciate your help to see if it is fixable or not!

The installation guide worked very well. Took me 2-3 hours to slowly do the screen replacement but my hp Pavillion dm4 screen is now replaced and working great.

Thanks… saved me $50. Laptop guy said he would install it for $60. I donated $10 to you… and was glad to do it.

My LCD in HP is black but all the other lights are on the LCD will not turn on. I turned it on and off, I took the battery out. I turned it on it went completely black. I am now in the process of taking off my screen and trying to fix the problem. Any help?
