Just replaced mine with a Screen Surgeons unit, so far looks great. Three things: first, watch this video, read the comments below, and check other postings around the Net, it will help you out. This screen replacement task wasn't difficult, but there are a lot of moments that something can break very quickly. I'm experienced with this kind of stuff, but would still call this a 2 banana job because of the risky moments. Second - hinge covers. I removed the bezel without removing the hinge covers, but it was tricky and took some careful bending and jiggling around. After I finished the screen replacement, I couldn't see a good way to get the bezel back on without removing the hinge covers. With the bezel off, it was still a little tricky to get them off even though there are now loose, I pulled them off from outside the unit with the lid mostly closed, they came out the rear. TheOnlyRick's comment below is THE trick to get them back on. I used a flat rectangle cut from the clamshell plastic that many things are sold in, then inserted from the rear, then slid the hinge covers on from the rear but only after I had re-attached the bezel. Third - I found that the two screws at the bottom of the bezel, in the first step, were star/Torx T8. NOT phillips head. Has anyone else seen that?
Thanks, very helpful. Maybe I could have done the whole thing without removing the hinge covers (at first I forgot to loosen the screws that hold the hinges to the screen assembly), but I ended up removing the hinge covers anyway. What I wasn't expecting was how hard it would to put them on afterwards! What happens is that as you push them in, the bottom clasp of the hinge cover catches on something within the hinge mechanism. So I cut a thin rectangle of an old credit card, and put it into the hinge (from underneath the laptop) so that as I push in the hinge cover the card smooths over whatever the cover was catching on before, and it easily slides into place (with the laptop screen fully open).
I want to replace the hinges of my laptop because the right hinge cover broke off from the laptop so it would no longer snap on and as i looked it seems as if the right hinge is rusty and is preventing me from closing the screen. What should i do? or perhaps show me sometime ?
Hey dude so I'm looking to just disconnect the screen I already removed the back cover but I dont know what wire to disconnect. I really dont want to open the entire laptop as I'm afraid I'll break it. I want to disconnect the screen so that I can use the bios on an external monitor.
Hi, just asking if the screen of 4530s is the same/compatible as hp probook 4540s..they are the on size of 15.6.. I need someone to confirm so that i can proceed and buy new screen.. Tia
my laptop is fine my the problem is i cannot close the laptop you know where is the pro-book 4535s sing on the left hand that piece of plastic is broke and that's y i cannot close the piece of material is gone and the wire inside is out i took it a place to repair it and they say nothing can be done the laptop work fin it just a piece of it that is gone so i would really like you to tell me what can be done is a good laptop thank you i can also send u pic of it if u want
Other than having to replace HP's defective 320 GB HD 3 times within the 1-yr warranty period (before wising-up and buying a Toshiba 500 GB replacement), this laptop has been a workhorse since purchase in 2011.A big complaint - shared by many in reviews - is the LED display appears 'washed-out': 'max' brightness is only attained at a very-narrow viewing angle.Comparing this 'matte' screen finish to the 'crystal' display on all MacBooks is like night and day. I wasn't aware of any 'crystal' display option with the ProBook 4530s.My question: do you know of a 'crystal' screen replacement that would upgrade the display to greater sharpness and brightness?
im going to try this on a probook 4330s. i think the hardest part will be geting the hinges back on. they are very fragile, and i have already broken one.

Great video! I am experiencing some serious flickering from my screen depending on which angle it's tilted - do you know what that may be caused by? I'm thinking it shouldn't be anything wrong with the screen, but maybe some cables have gotten stuck somewhere or something like that. I have the HP ProBook 4330s
can you please tell me how did you manage to solve the problem, i experience the same thing on same model 4330s? is the problem with the display cable, or you find that the display is faulty?
It's almost IMPOSSIBLE to get the hinge covers back if you're following this procedure. To all, I strongly recommend downloading the HP ProBook 4530S service manual (a google search will get you to it), and follow the official procedure of screen replacement recommended by HP. It will take a little longer than this, and it will be a bit more of an "invasive surgery", but trust me, unless you're scared of removing a lot of screws, the official procedure is actually a LOT safer than this and the chances of damaging something is a lot less as everything will come off easily without you having to apply excessive force to pry open the hinge covers, weird "tricks" like loosening the hinge screws and pulling on the screen to reveal the side mounting bracket screws, tricks to put the hinge covers back in, etc. I can't believe the tech guru who made this video doesn't understand the concept that physical strength and electronics are mutually incompatible partners. The moment you realize you're applying too much force to remove a part or install it back, you should understand you're doing it wrong. Like my computer teacher once told me in my school years, "Shortcuts may cut short your life".
you can actually perform this procedure without removing the hinge covers. the bottom edge of the bezel can be loosened so that it tilts forward but not completely removed. the side bracket screws can still be accessed. it's not quite as easy as with the hinge covers off but it certainly saves ruined hinge covers. the private school i do tech work for has 20 of these units so experience is talking here.
If you do remove the hinge covers, as you push them in, the bottom clasp of the cover catches on something within the hinge mechanism. So I cut a thin rectangle of an old credit card, and put it into the hinge (from underneath the laptop) so that as I push in the hinge cover the card smoothes over whatever the cover was catching on before, and it easily slides into place (with the laptop screen fully open).
To everyone - this is THE trick to get the hinge covers back on. The bottom clasp of the cover is catching on the seam between the bottom and top of the main laptop case. Using TheOnlyRick's process gets you past that seam without catching. I read his comment before tackling the replacement, and so was prepared to look for this when the hinge covers were catching exactly like he says. All thumbs up to Rick!
Thank you this really helped. The only real problem I had was the hinge covers they were a real pain in the ass to take out and put back in I was especially cautious when putting them in to not crack the new screen. Next time I will charge my customer a lil bit more for it being such a bitch.
I have to disagree with you; You can in fact put the hinges back on without pulling the whole laptop apart, with no damage to them (they are made of a strong plastic, and can be bent...to an extent, obviously) - you just need to be very careful with doing so. Source: Myself - just did a screen change on a ProBook 4540s (same physical layout). :)
Can any one assist me ?? I want to replace my screen but I'm informed when purchasing I need to know the resolution, backlight, and screen size so that I my get the accurate screen My problem is I don't know how or were to obtain that info

This video helped me a TON, but I will say this. The fact it entirely skips the reassembly process is a huge disappointment on otherwise a good tutorial. The camera needs to be better too as a lot of the sounds I was hearing did not match what I was trying to actually do off screen. My laptop has suffered a bit of damage (the hinges only actually, which fortunately decided to remount after some fiddling, but will never be the same) but nonetheless, it's better than having an no laptop at all.
excuse me, just a question, I have this laptop model and the screen just went all bright white and stay that way, is it dead or could be a conector? thank you
One thing to add that it is very important, that's when your about to disconnect the VGA cable from the screen, you should pull it forward towards the case/housing of the screen. Just an F.Y.I ")
Don't use a flathead screwdriver on a screen bezel or any other plastic part unless you want to mar the plastic. Use a plastic "spudger" tool or an old credit card that you don't mind detroying!
replacing this LCD without disassemble whole laptop is stupid and u r only show your incompetence. u just want to sell more displays. The hinge covers cannot be put back without disassemble laptop

thanks maynn... now I can finally replace my screen and save 500 rupees... you are a life saver and 5bucks saver too :))
The procedure is similar for the ProBook 4730s? Or is there a difference?
I want to replace the hinges of my laptop because the right hinge cover broke off from the laptop so it would no longer snap on and as i looked it seems as if the right hinge is rusty and is preventing me from closing the screen. What should i do? or perhaps show me sometime ?

Can I replace the screen with anther screen that has full HD?

well, it actually went together nicely suprisingly.

how to close the hinges in the end?
I am trying to track down a standard screen to replace the anti-glare one that is offered. The video quality is sub-par.

This person is careless in taking off the hinge covers. That's not how to do it. He probably bent them.
