HP Spectre x360 convertible Swollen Battery

Swollen battery. Expired warranty by few days. This is HP Spectre x360 convertible. The battery swollen to a point where it make the cover pried open and i think the back cover a bit bent also. How powerful is that. Age of laptop, a little over two years. Spot the gap like two months ago but thought my laptop is old enough to have swollen battery. If you have a laptop, please do check it frequently for swollen battery so you can get it replaced before warranty expired.

I bought the battery replacement not long ago and received it yesterday. It took about like a week or so. The replacement is just open two screws and you can replace it. Instead of making all the way to the repair shop and wait for a few hours to get it done. That's what I thought. Click a few minutes thing.

I open screw 1, there was a bit of resistance but I made it. Then screw 2..... and screw 2 and screw 2.... It took me forever. It was fasten dead tight to the laptop. The head was then stripped and spoiled my screwdriver as well. Next time straightaway use a latex glove or rubber band to protect the screw head before opening. Especially HP laptop. I just check it and having other people looking for missing screws or stripped screw so I guess it is a common issue.

Another reason I didn't like to have my laptop taken to a service center is that you never know what they'll do with it. Some might damage the thing inside and not let you know. Some might replace something inside and you never know. Some might just change a screw and charge a few hundreds. sigh... 

I still have to go there to get the screw remove so I can change the battery. If it weren't for the assignment that I have to submit, I think I wouldn't even want to change the battery.

I let someone changed my handphone screen before, the home button with fingerprint function was scratched like they use sandpaper to wipe it. I didn't notice it until I was home.

Doing good?

 Doing good to me or using me? Even if you do good to me also didn’t required you to disrespect or undermine me. Ownself so fake said other people fake. Behind talk bad about other people in front smile and praise. Some more about the people who helped them. Couldn’t help look down on them too. I also did good to you so I can undermine you anyhow I like. I merely do what you do to me you already angry. I treated you like a family and respected you but now you lost all the respect so don’t put the fault on me when you break the string first. Some more your character started showing a long long time ago. You didn’t change, you are getting worst. Treat you like gold, you treated me as shit. Once useless, tried to siam as soon as possible. Worst still, putting me as the problem solved all your problems. I also realised why you suddenly unhappy even more than before when I came back. You are worried I would take all that belongs to you. So just prove how greedy you are. I don’t even hav...
