    anyone?

    This is for a HP Folio 9470m which originally has:
    AUO B140XTN02.5 1366x768 . See specs here.

    I tried an LG LP140WD2-D4 which is not working. There is a picture but image is bad.

    Here someone upgraded his screen with a HP Elitebook 8460p but also needed to replace his display cable to a 2-channel one which HP listed (part number) in the service manual.

    But for the folio, HP does not even mention this part. I have a thread on their support forum which they don't answer...

    So that is why I am searching for such a screen.... with much hope :)

    Do your model ever come with 900p screen? If the cable never existed, then it probably don't .

    Otherwise check the manual, Hp one are pretty good and list all the parts.

    Hi Baiii,

    This model comes with a 900p. But it is unclear how they get it working.
    Parts can be seen here.

    I have a post here on HP's forum asking why there is no mention of the display/lvds cable. The 2 screen types are mentioned though.

    The display cable I have has a 40 pin connector on the board, 40 pin connector on the 1-channel screen en in between the cable splits towards the webcam.
    The model on there website with the 900p screen also has a webcam. So it seems like in that model they might use 2 separate cables.... which might suggest that the motherboard is also different.

    But then again.... on the previous parts link, there are no different parts (mobos, etc) for the 2 models. Only different screen.....

    how about the panel for the folio 9470m at 900p?

    or the x1 carbon panel?

    you wont know if it works before you try, and take a look at those cables for the 9470m 900p version, if they are the same aside the different part numbers

    Theoratically the current display cable cannot work, because bandwith is used for the webcam.
    Also, i don't know the part# of the 900p version...

    panel is no problem te get one, cable is and also the question is the motherboard of this version and the 900p version differ...

    Typically the cost of respinning the board to save a cent on the LVDS controller is pointless, if your model comes with a high res option then the LVDS should be 2 channel on the mobo.

    Hi Guys,

    I ordered a 900p screen from laptopscreen for this model. They wanted to send me a LP140WD2-TLD2, which is 2 channel lvds.

    I was lucky to test my laptop with a friends screen (from HP elitebook 8470p) which is a LP140WD2-TLD4, also 2 channel lvds. It does not work.
    The resolution is ok, but the picture is not ok.

    The fact that the 40-pin cable is split to camera connection and 40-pin lvds connector together with above point out that i need more that just another screen....

    But HP does not list separate parts besides 2 screens (HD and HD+)....
