As my question says, the backlight will occasionally die whenever the display’s at a certain angle. It also will sometimes cut out and the laptop has to be restarted to get it back.
The reason why the laptop screen flickers is because the screen line connection is poor. If the laptop screen flickering when moved, it is generally determined that the screen cable is faulty.
1. Check if the screen is open to a certain angle and flash in the BIOS
Turn on the laptop and click the F10 button to enter the BIOS. (The buttons of different brands of laptops entering the BIOS will be different.)
1) Then wait 5 minutes and check if it is displayed properly, even if it is in the BIOS.
2) Please tilt the screen/display of the laptop slowly backwards and forwards to check if the screen flickering at certain angles.
If the interface in bios is normal at any angle, it indicates that the fault is caused by the software program. If the fault persists in bios, so there is hardware failure such as screen cable, laptop screen, etc.
The broken of the laptop screen generally show: no light, bright blocks or bright lines. The cable is not plugged in or poor connection, and there will be the desktop is deformed or the display is flashing.
2. Reinstall the driver
Some screen flickering caused by graphics driver. The first thing that uninstall the graphics card driver and reinstall. However, if the screen flickers at a certain angle, it is unlikely to be caused by a graphics driver error.
3. The screen cable is loose
Check the video cable connection first. Reconnecting the screen cable may solve screen flickering when it is open certain position. If you want to check this, you must remove the display panel because the connector is on the back of the LCD screen.

. Breaking the screen cable
Since you have tried to reconnect the screen cable and it is not working properly,the next step is to replace the screen cable. Because laptop screen is all folding, too much times to open and close the screen will wear the screen cable and will easily cause the screen to break.
Use a new screen or a screen line to detect whether the screen is broken or the line is broken.
I first replaced the screen cable because it was cheap.
Moreover, the probability of screen line broken is very large according to the laptop screen only works in certain position.
6. Backlight
LCD laptop screens generally use CCFL backlights, while LED screens use LED backlights. Your laptop screen may flicker if the backlight lamp is broken or the inverter board is not securely connected at a angle.
