@diah4386 the issues you are running into with this are the availability and connectivity. First major hurdle will be availability of a FHD display that will physically fit your T520i. Next is the connectivity. You will need a datasheet for both screens (existing should be a LTN156KT02) current and your replacement, use those to check electrical and data connections. You need to find out which GPU your Lenovo has and what best data it can display. They will have to match. Based on that you will most likely find that your T520i will not supply the data needed to drive the FHD. Going by the age of this and advances from then until now, I seriously doubt that your GPU can produce the signals for FHD. Furthermore.,it is not the cable but the connector wiring (pin assignments) that will become important. Let us know the model of replacement screen you have in mind so that we can help you to check this out further.

Let us know the model of replacement screen you have in mind (existing should be a LTN156KT02 would be best since it does connect to your Lenovo) so that we can help you to check this out further.
