Do let me know how it goes. I’m in the same boat as you, but I have not tried taking apart the LCD side of things. GPD said they may be able to send the replacement cable to me, but that was the last email I got from them. Still following up on photos/videos on how to take it apart.
Will you be able to send photos of how you took out the LCD portion up until the cover you mentioned?
I am requesting a new laptop - we cant wait forever and have them send parts. And it is a huge pain to split the screen from the touch sensor… what if it breaks?
Forever almost literally. After 45+ days I received…wait for it…a screen. No cable, not mounted in the aluminum backplate. Just a replacement screen. Sigh. This is becoming a goat screw…very sad as I’m quite happy with my little GPD Micro PC - it’s a nice little unit if you don’t ask too much from it.
I’ve emailed kendyz, but I doubt I’ll get a satisfactory result.
We ship a lot out of the country and it will be a bear to ship the unit back…just giving you a heads up. It also won’t be cheap - somewhere around $75.
