Chosen Solution I’ve had a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 (SM-T230NU) for about a year or two, and I just had an issue with it today. I can’t seem to be able to do just about anything- First I couldn’t log into a social media app, then I could no longer watch any video, may it be from Youtube or Facebook, or any places, really. I then could no longer log into any app (Facebook, for instance) and brightness of my screen went down and I can’t seem to be able to tap/open anything, and I can’t get the menu to turn off/restart open, but I can lock it....

Chosen Solution Hi, I’ve seen your Xperia XZ teardown video, great stuff! But I have a question, since this part is missing from the video. How do I remove the Xperia XZ’s aluminium back plate/cover? Do I need to open up the phone and get to it (is it put in place with screws?), or is it glued on, like the front, and all I need is a heater? Also, a video of it would be immensely appreciate!...

Chosen Solution I bought a 1015e at a estate sale. It seems the Bios was messed up or changed around and I am unable to change setttings in Bios because most everything is greyed out. Of course Asus is no help, but I’m thining I need to reset a bios jumper. Anyone know if this laptop has one? I have unplugged the cmos battery, but a bunch of different motherboard bios researches come up with changing the pins on the bios jumper....

Chosen Solution Hi! I often get iBook G4s that can go into the option menu and target mode, but when you select a volume to boot from, or let them boot to the hard drive, they go to a blank light blue screen and then stall. This happens immediately after the Apple icon screen. The Apple icon screen will disappear after a while, there will be a sort of a flash of a screen refresh, and then the laptop will sit on a blank blue screen, and that’s it....

Chosen Solution Hi guys, My 3DS XL’s top screen is black (still on though) and the bottom screen has hazy vertical lines. Before this happened, the DS would randomly shut off. I think this is a common problem as I have seen other posters have similar issues, with no avail. I reseated the battery, checked the motherboard (though I don’t really know what to look for), and reseated the wifi module....

Chosen Solution I don’t think that the 200ish gigabytes of solid state storage will be enough for me. is there a way to put a hard drive in this device? Thanks, Joshua While it can be done, it isn’t as easy on these top disassembly machines, sad to say :-(. With these, you can upgrade the Optane caching PCIe SSD, but you probably need to remove the motherboard to get to it....

Chosen Solution My niece tried to use my Magic Bullet and it leaked liquid all into the base. It says not to immerse in water so I don’t know how to clean it. Can I buy just a replacement base (motor and all)? Model is MB1001. Open it up and use these guides to clean it: Magic Bullet Teardown Electronics Water Damage UPDATE The are several listed on eBay you can get, boys full units and bases....

Chosen Solution I’ve got an iMac 27" (late 2013, model 14.2) that already has an onboard 500GB SSD (APPLE SSD SM0512F). Is it possible to upgrade this existing SSD to larger one, i.e. 1TB SSD? If so, what 1TB (or 2TB) SSD is compatible? Before we go down this path lets first review what it will take to get to the custom Apple PCIe blade SSD: iMac Intel 27" EMC 2639 SSD Replacement its quite a lot of work!...

Chosen Solution i have bought imac 27 2013 I5-4570. can i upgrade cpu i7-4770k? plz help me From the same model yes ( 22 nm “Haswell” Quad Core 3.5 GHz Intel “Core i7” (4771) processor ) - any old/new i7?

If this answer is acceptable please remember to return and mark it accepted....

Chosen Solution I have just bought the 2.6ghz version of the macbook pro with a 750GB HDD and i was wondering if it is possible to replace the HDD with an aftermarket SSD preferably 250GB to 500GB. I know it is possible to remove the superdrive and put in a second SSD but i use the superdrive quite often. Yes, it is very easy to install an SSD. Most 2.5" SSD drives will fit and work in your MacBook Pro....

Chosen Solution Hi, So as the title says, I’m a micro soldering hobbyist and I wanted to purchase some solder balls for chips such as the audio IC repairs etc. what size balls do they take? I ask this question generically for all the chips, I just selected iPhone 7, because this one to my knowledge has this as a common issue. If someone had some information on a generic size to purchase or what size is required for specific chips, that would be incredibly helpful for me and everyone else whose looking to get the correct materials for the jobs....

Chosen Solution Whirlpool quiet partner ii clean light flashing 7 times. I installed a new heating element and reset the code, and it still flashes 7 times Not sure what to do now? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Chris The flashing “clean light” indicates, a water temperature, heating problem. It could be due to, a bad heater element, thermostat, or a control board.

Chosen Solution Hi, my mobile phone fall down and unfortunately my touch screen is cracked. Partially its unresponsive to touch, but LCD is totally OK. I contacted authorised service centre and they told me, that its only possible to change the whole screen with LCD, not just digitizer (because of adhesive between). Of course, its quite expensive… Thats why I ask for advice. I found on ebay just Digitizer for my phone, but I am not sure, if I will be able to replace it… Do you have some manual or good advice?...

Chosen Solution Hi, this is my 1st question here :) Recently bought a used 27" late 2009 Quadcore i5 iMac with ATI Radeon HD 4850. Lush 12GB RAM and a WD replacement HD. Sierra was pre installed, so for 2 weeks I did not encounter any problems. Midst watching a browser video, my bf encountered a grey screen of death. Upon restarting, the sys was reluctant to start. A never seen artifact showed under the cursor which looked like this:...

Chosen Solution Are the charging port and hdmi port able to be repaired/replaced, without replacing the entire motherboard? If so, what is the expected cost range for both of these to be fixed at a computer repair shop? You would have to find a repair shop with soldering skills. The parts themselves are $5 each or so. The repair shop probably would charge for an hour or so of work. Roughly $60?...

Chosen Solution I was hoping to be able to move the keycaps around on my 2016 MacBook Pro 15" (I’m using a Dvorak keyboard layout). This was fairly easy to do on my 2013 MBP, but I’m afraid to break something if I attempt to pry these new keycaps. The keys on these models are prone to breakage because of the 2 “hooks” at the bottom of the key. Also a Dvorak user I have been popping off my keycaps on every MacBook I get since 2008....

Chosen Solution Hi all, I have come across and issue I don’t seem to be able to figure out. My laptop refuses to start, when the power button is pressed absolutely nothing happens. The issue appeared after I closed the lid to put it to sleep, when I tried to wake it. The laptop has had it motherboard change under warranty twice but the the issue was caused by i the laptop would at least had LED flashing, which is not the case at the moment....
