I just got a dv6-6117dx and want to replace the screen with a 1080p one. Would I have to find one with the same connectors? Where would I find one and would the video card support this resolution?

@SH3player I havent had luck doing the full HD upgrade on this model. The image looks interlaced. Not sure what the problem is.

On the HP 6555b, it appears that the final screws holding the screen into the frame are actually small rivets? I may just need more light on it to see clearly. I have 2 of these, trying to swap one busted screen for the good one.

@pepperheadfarms Can you please email me a photo.

Hi! Does the webcam remain untouched during the process (will it still work)? Also, do you need glue or something to put the rubber covers and the bezel back?

[ScreenSurgeons]

@mamboule the webcam cable may stick to the back of the screen, you may need to lift it off. No, you just put the rubber covers back on.

This doesn't have much to do with the video, but my webcam isn't working right now and I just wana check if it's connected wrong or anything. Do you know if I could check the connector thought this method? Or does the webcam cable go behind the platform BEHIND the actual screen?

Good video quality, easy to understand replacement procedure, I hope I won't need to replace my dv6 screen though :-) Thanks anyway!
