I liked your approach of diagnosing the problem. Most of the viewers do not have the background to identify which component to check using multimeter. Your way is the preferred way instead of replacing the screen and throwing away the existing one. Thanks for your good work. I wish I could get that kind of training, which I always loved. I liked your style of teaching and have already clicked "Like".

Very helpful video!!!... 1st I had to remove the damaged screen doing exactly as he explained, checked the exact model and rear video connector position, ordered the new screen (making sure it is 100% compatible with the original laptop model + video connector exact location behind), safely store the disassembled laptop parts with care by holding with tape the little screws while waiting for the new part. Once I received the new screen, I followed exactly as this guy explained ensuring that all connectors were properly inserted and... VOILA!... it worked. >>> JUST 3 LITTLE EXTRA ADVISES: 1) Keep the NEW front protective (transparent) screen cover on it while re-assembling until you need to put the final frame cover. 2) Be careful not to confuse the bottom screws with the LONGER pair that belongs to the plastic screen cover at the end of this procedure, otherwise won't hold it (as I did it), so you have to swap them all back correctly. 3) Ensure that the plastic frame >>cover hinges
Thank you for the video, it’s exactly what I was looking for, my laptop flicking and even in bios menu, I would try this quick voltage measurement to find an issue
Good information. Teach logical way to repair, some times with logic think can find problem easily. At least to remove customer complain... led flick. I agree most of customer will close the cheapest solution. Good job
Happy Friday Sorin !!
a greetings from palestine , you are the best teacher i have ever seen in all youtube , big respect for you sorin
Hi i watch all ur videos from 2 years now as like u say u keep it real and the way u solve things through all methods and how to diagnose is simple but i hoope u trun to make videos for smartphones repairs and how to diagnose as beginner repairing electronics i learn much from ur videos thnks so much (follower from morocco)
Ce coincidență chiar am nevoie de o rezolvare pentru asa ceva. 👏🏻👏🏻
If the problem is really coming from the dim-signal of the super io, you should also disconnect the resistor because now youre feeding power into a diying signal line :)
That "Hello finally friday" made me subscribe instantly lol! what a great guy!!!!! ok back to the video
Dam man that's some serious out of the box repair. Nice
Found ur channel after ordering a dead motherboard for the IDS port replacement. But then, I tried reflowing the board in the oven (ghetto) 2x and it booted. So I have a flickering screen. And haven't removed or found a IDS replacement for my original motherboard. Thank you for this. Just building something 1st time hoping it works.
My first comment on your video...i watched a lot..learn a lot more...thank u sir..
It could be a missing capacitor or broken track for multiple capacitors on the backlight power circuit, that's causing the backlight to get the "unevened" clean pulse of current. The issue may not occur on charger because in windows settings, the backlight is set to 100% when plugged in, and less than 100% on battery. That is also why it doesn't occur on startup, only after windows logon. The user may have caused that while replacing RAM or HDD, or by slipping a screwdriver in the wrong place
Salut ! Te urmaresc zilnic, ma ajuta foarte mult sa inteleg unele lucruri faptul ca repari si nu inlocuiesti placa / piesa e foarte util cautam de mult situatii zilnice din service uri nu doar tutoriare in care gasesc defectul si comanda piesa . Te apreciez f mult. Exista un forum sau grup in care putem fii in contact cu tine? Mult succes !!!
Wondering if addition of components could be added to smooth out fluctuation. And keep the dimming option.
Excellent demo.
I love what u do sorin it teach me alot
The owner can use the night mode for adjusting the brightness and colors, it will do a kind of light adjustment..
Thanks Sorin . Have a nice weekend. :- )
Very nice solution. It is a good compromise.
Cool, I hope I can fix my LCD with this and the two other flickering screen fix videos.
I have that problem on my Toshiba. Mostly stable video until I adjust the screen angle, then lots of flashing. But sometimes I get a little flashing when it's just sitting there. I unplugged the charger and it started flashing, but then settled down. It may have just been the movement that caused that. Put the charger back in and moved the screen. Lots of flashing but then it settled down. Would love to get it fixed. It's still a good laptop and it's running a website monitoring program for me.
No one is happy like Sorin when he said “ Finally Friday” 😀

Thank you Sorin for an interesting information that you share
what was the liquid that you applied before soldering ? what is that thin wire called ? can i use a thin solder with a small bit to solder or will it fry the truck ? and i might lose display completely ?
Clearly you can see..... No Sorin, sadly often we can't because your mind is working at a much higher level in the background and we can't read every essence of your historical understanding. Zero criticism intended whatsoever, grateful for the wisdom as ever. Would have rathered a fix but understand your method and bravo, job done no problem. If only we could download our learning experiences onto an ssd and share them, dunno if it would be much of a swap here tho 😁
I received a laptop with same issue, but I found out that in windows 10, when the power adaptor was disconnected, the brightness level automatically drops and cause this issue. I just updated the Intel graphics driver, and adjusted the brightness level to 100 on both with battery mode and charger. And it worked fine 😀

Mr Sorin , Couldn't the vertical line on the screen can be from the main panel cable------> motherboard???
If you can't see it before Windows it's really a driver issue especially if it's a laptop with a higher OS then he came with (now with 10 and probably came with 7 or something else) But nice to know more hardware secrets
Im curious if he tried with a live os usb drive and the laptop didnt flicker why didnt he tried to uninstall the display drivers only.
Your amazing!
Varry good work .
as it started ok - and only began to flicker after drivers started to load, I would have guessed at a driver issue. Also, what happens when power options are set to turn off the screen?
@retrotech11

Yes it loads up ok, and starts flickering when in windows. This could be the adaptive brightness causing an issue with the flickering.

Hi Sorin! Isn't it dangerous to inject voltage directly into an output (PWM) of the Super-IO chip? Could that tension destroy the Super-IO over time? Thanks!

If you know what it should handle. You can stay in correct limits of that rail. Like it bouncing around 11v it must be a 12v rail. So only send a steady 11.8 or so
great job
Hi I have a dell xps 7390 and is randomly on the screen flickering even in bios , what do you think is wrong with? Thank you very much
I have a client laptop that has Horizontal white lines, and some of black in the corners, also the resolution seems like a bit reduced at corners and also blurred with white. is it that the ribbon cable damaged or something?
AND NOW WE HAVE..... 23! WHAT!? HAHAHHA LOVE U SORIN
Very good 👍
That was great!
excellent sir
Hello Sorin, you mentioned you can replace the board altogether. I have a Hp envy 13 aq10**** with a similar problem. I'd like to replace the whole LCD connector board. Where can I purchase it in the US?

No.. not possible without advanced factory tools. The lcd ribbon is connected / merged to both And if a model has a removable board which most do not. Probably best to just buy lcd at that point
This Is a EDID mismatch problem! You can backup old (broken) screen EDID info and update the new screen firmware and it will work perfectly. Or like other people said, you can disable the brightness adjustment...

If only I understand what you are saying, I would be able to fix my laptop. I want to keep the brightness control function because I use it a lot
But are you sure that, now that the client cannot drop the brightness with the keyboard itself, what about using third party software, or even Nvidia brightness control panel? i think that would work.
The solution is very good. I was lucky because it was a software problem. On an Asus x54h laptop with hd7470m graphics card, Windows 10 put the latest video driver and when I set the brightness less than 100%, the backlight lights went out completely, and when I set brightness to 100% they were on the maximum so I couldn't watch to the monitor and the solution was to put an old but good video driver and to block the driver update in windows. E foarte buna solutia. Eu am avut noroc pentru ca era o problema de soft. La un laptop Asus x54h cu placa grafica hd7470m Windows-ul 10 punea cel mai recent driver video si cand dadeam luminozitatea mai mica de 100%, ledurile backlight se stingeau complet, iar cand dadeam la 100% erau aprinse la maxim de nu ma puteam uita la monitor si solutia a fost sa pun un driver video vechi dar bun si sa blochez actualizarea driverului in windows.
Hi sir, I have a problem with my slim acer x483 flickering from boot and won't stop flickering on battery or plugged. I dont know if its the backlight or need a jumper too. I noticed a lot of same issues with this model.
What if you use resistor on jumper to make the brightness at least 80% or something like that, can you try it?
hi. iv got an asus x555lD laptop and the screen works but its like the back light is faulty as you can barley see the screen & when charger is plugged in it works like normal. Took it too an IT company and they said its the led within the LCD screen is this correct? if so how do i replace it?. as a new screen is like 120$. thanks
where can i buy a microscope like yours? i really need one of these to work with. Thanls!!
Thought we should not touch the screen board, my screen goes all vertical line after touching it. Why? Changed the screen cable still the same. It is the ribbon on the board problem?
hello, I have a similar flickering problem but I lose the image and the screen became white and grey. Any idea?
That is NOT a hardware fault. It is a energy saving thing by intel. Its called "Intel Display Power Saving". Disable it !!! The voltage goes up and down because the driver is dimming the whole time.

Why would you not pop in an ssd with an os installed to see if its a software issue? And if someone breaks the screen in the future you have to do the job again.
If the laptop owner comes back because he would like to be able to adjust the brightness: do a 'vintage' repair: take an NE555, a potentiometer, a few discrete components and create a PWM signal with that, for adjusting the screen brightness. Works very well. It's a simple circuit which can easily be built without a circuit board. Just hot-glue it to the back of the screen. Very dodgy but functional. For extra luxury, an LDR can be added to the circuit, so it will automatically dim and brighten up according to ambient light level.
Nice one
FYI - Some older Toshiba laptops have a 15V power adapter. They don't work with 19V.

I have some type of problem with my laptop "Samsung RV511" can you please suggest the solution??
my exact problem, lemme check this out
I have a Toshiba Satellite Radius P55W-B5224 laptop whose screen flickers. I connected it to an external monitor with a HDMI cable and the display on the external monitor was perfect. I watched a movie for more than one hour non stop with charger connected. While the external monitor screen display was perfect, the laptop screen after flickering for a long time, became dark. So is it a software (Intel Graphics setting) or hardware (damaged/failed) laptop screen issue? I disconnected the touch screen cable, still flickering, pink some time green color flashes, unstable screen color changes continued. Viewer feedback as well as author's feedback is highly appreciated. All the vowels of the key board are out - not working; I am using an external keyboard. I have already tried to load the old display driver and tried. same issue. I have updated the display driver, same issue. Both times, the external monitor display was perfect. Thanks for reading.
I had this same problem 2 weeks ago on a toshiba laptop and it was fixed with a new battery.
