Lenovo Edge 2-1580: Broken hinge has caused the screen to separate from the backplate.

Sun, 04 Sep 2022 10:40:36 -0700

There are several issues.

Recently the hinge for my screen has stripped it screws somehow and became locked in an upright position. This would not allow my screen to move properly without causing the backplate to flex and break away from the screen. After a few days the screen has finally refused to turn on.

I would like to know if fixing the hinge will allow the screen to work. If so, how do the hinges work? How do I fix it? I’ve saved some of the screws that popped out from the hinge.

Also, a new development is that the entire laptop refuses to turn on now. I am unsure what exactly has now caused this.

Also, the rubber lining around the laptop is mostly just flapping off. I hate this.

Lenovo Edge 2-1580: make it a desktop

Fri, 23 Aug 2019 18:40:03 -0700

RE:Lenovo Edge 2-1580 QF 80QF0004US Can I disconnect and remove the screen lcd, digitizer, camera and anything connecting the screen and top lid to the keyboard section and just use the keyboard and guts underneath as a desktop? I use as a desktop now but with the screen being broke I would like to just take it off entirely for safety. I don’t feel worth it to try and fix.

THANK YOU. Cindy

Lenovo Edge 2-1580: Complete Shutdown if laptop screen is moved - Why?

Sat, 15 Jun 2019 17:00:28 -0700

The laptop crashes when the screen is moved and also, sometimes, when the device is simply bumped. What could be the issue?

I can open the back cover off as I have the necessary screwdriver, but I do not know what I should look for. Additionally, I have noticed there are three backcover screws missing.

Lenovo Edge 15: Is there a best way to remount Screw Anchors for the Screen hinge

Wed, 06 Feb 2019 12:54:04 -0700

The plastic that held the screw anchor points in place got brittle and broke. I still have the anchors and am just wondering if there was any specific product that people would recommend to remount them.

Lenovo Edge 15: How do I remove the top metal plate to replace it?

Wed, 07 Nov 2018 11:43:39 -0700

The metal plate that covers the screen of my Lenovo Edge 15 is dented at the hinge, making it difficult to open my laptop and creating the possibility of it damaging the screen over time. I've found a replacement metal plate online, but I need to know how to remove the damaged one on my Edge 15 and how to replace it with the new one.

Thank you!

Lenovo Edge 2-1580: Are new replacement hinges for Lenovo Edge 2 1580 supposed to move?

Tue, 19 Jan 2021 10:14:52 -0700

The left hinge on my Lenovo Edge 2 1580 is broken. I ordered new hinges by factory part number. When I received the new hinges I found that they would not move. I exerted a fair amount of force (I didn’t want to use to much for fear of breaking them) to try and open the hinges, but they would not budge. I need to know if this is normal for new hinges and if there is anything I can do to loosen them up. Thanks
