Unfortunately, my Pinebook Pro has suffered from the failure of the mount that fastens the hing to the base. I believe it may be because of tightening of the hinge on the USB-C side of the machine.
I know I need to order a new top shell to repair the machine. However, I'm worried that if the hinge is too tight, that the same failure will occur again prematurely.
Should I consider trying to replace the hinges on the display too? I'm not even sure that the hinges can be obtained without purchasing a whole display ( which is probably impossible to get at the moment ).
Any advice or experience anyone has with repairing this problem would be appreciated.
