Chosen Solution Is it possible to replace a broken ribbon cable that is part of the screen ? It looks as if the cable to the smallest contact was damaged when replacing the screen. HeyMargit. This is classic iPhone 6s backlight filter damage. No question. You can do an out of warranty swap at Apple for $299 USD, or have a microsolderer change your backlight filter. It is a straightforward repair and quality shops offer no fix = no fee to look at it....

Chosen Solution Have blue screen for all inputs on Mitsubishi LT-46265. Have tried all obvious fixes including resets multiple times. Screen works for menus and Internet so that’s not it. When resetting, TV recognizes each HDMI device when reconnected but won’t display video or audio. Trouble shooting clearly identifies problem is with TV. Need to know if it can be repaired or needs to be thrown out. Paul Avery, start by A/V Reset all Inputs - Press front panel and <VOL (arrow Left)> buttons at the same time and hold for 10 seconds....

Also the Home-Button is fully broken and cant be connected. My question is if I should buy a new screen or is there a other possibiliaty? Thanks possibly long screw damage if the screws where put in the wrong place or screwed to tightly

Chosen Solution Today I went to replace my iPhone case. I took everything loose and put it in the new housing. At the first test I realize that the cable of the speaker / charging port / microphone was not connected. So I switched the iPhone of then connected the cable. The telephone is now in a boat loop when the cable is connected. When disconnected, it starts normally. iTunes wont connect ether....

Chosen Solution My s8 was apparently damaged while in my pocket (phone is 2 wks old, never dropped). Damage is limited to a small (5mm) part on the lower corner, and I’m still able to use the touch functions. (turned on developer options, and feature that lights-up where touched - and entire screen touch still works, even where glass is broken.) I have put some clear plastic adhesive tape over the broken part of the glass to prevent cracks from spreading as a temporary fix....

Chosen Solution I broke one of the wires attached to the MacMini hard drive thermal sensor connector (see attached picture; also it’s Step 9, Mac mini Model A1176 RAM Replacement). Here’s an actual photo of the issue: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/10974334/P18809… What is best to do here … repair it (best way???) or buy a new part? (where do I get it?) Thanks, Eric It’s Apple part # 922-7319. Costs around $22 - $29,...

Chosen Solution It is clean imei, already unlocked but Verizon is saying it wont work and its not working with a verizon sim. Help? Hope this helps-Calvin Mogilinski Verizon has A1453 CDMA model, however all models of the iPhone 5s have LTE bands, and can work on AT&T’s 4G LTE network. The quicker answer is no, because Verizon will not activate any device that was not OEMed for them, as noted above....

Chosen Solution I’m new so bare with me. I recently bought this Toshiba satellite 4005cds for 7 bucks and I plan to play old windows 98 games on it. The original owner had taken out his harddrive, (for obvious reasons.) I got the power supply that was sold specifically for it just today in the mail. apon plugging it in it will only go as far as displaying the Toshiba logo on the screen....

Chosen Solution So i have this problem that the lightning to 3.5 mm cable won’t work and the lightning earpods too. I’ve tried everything, searched it on Google, cleaned up the port, opened up Bluetooth to connect. It still won’t work. I’ve also tried it on other iPhones and it worked perfectly. So I’m guessing the lightning port is THE problem. Is there any chance of having the lightning port of my old 5s fits in my 7 plus?...

Chosen Solution Hi all, A friend of mine damaged the display in his mid-2012 11” MacBook Air. It just so happens I have a mid-2013 11” Air for parts and have lots of experience repairing this generation of Mac having worked at a blue fruit stand for several years. I can confirm that although the years are different, both models are listed as “A1465”. Can anyone confirm whether the display connector and AirPort antenna cables all match up internally?...

Chosen Solution I just broke My 32gb iPhone 6s screen and I was wondering if It’s possible to transfer the whole screen from another iCloud 64gb iPhone 6s which is useless…? I think that the screen itself is not locked to the device however the home button is so you have to carefully swap this part so that each button stays with it’s respective iPhone.

Chosen Solution Hello everybody, is logic board upgradable for this Macbook? I want to replace it’s original logic board with newer (Macbook Pro 15 late 2013/2014/2015 with 16 gb of ram). Is it possible? Sadly, thats not possible, while the case is basically the same, the display, SSD and the keyboard/track pad are unique to each model series. You’ll find used 2014 & 2015 systems for sale which is what I would go after....

Chosen Solution Can I upgrade the RAM in my Macbook Air (late 2015) from 4GB to 8GB? Sadly No, The RAM is soldered to the logic board and is not upgradable. Your only choice here is to exchange the logic board with one that has 8 GB which is not economical. It would be cheaper to buy a new system. Review this IFIXIT teardown: MacBook Air 13" Early 2015 Teardown. Jump to Step 7....

Chosen Solution For five days now I haven’t been able to connect to any networks at all. My airport is on, it just can’t find any networks, none show up. Not my own, not my neighbors. I’ve done all the normal things to make it work, I even checked my router. My phone and every other device can connect, so it’s just wrong with my MacBook Pro. I really don’t know what else to do....

Chosen Solution I bought my computer a month ago and now the screen is not working I try to turn it on and won’t turn on I tried charging it up and I won’t charge you either it’s less than a month old what do I do If its less than 30 days old there is most likely a warranty on it take it back where you got it from...

Chosen Solution I can no longer recharge the unit, any ideas? Hi, Have you checked that the contacts on the watch and the charging unit are clean and shiny? Have you tried connecting the charging unit to a different USB port on your PC? Can you access the watch when you connect it to a PC? If the answer to all the above is yes then perhaps the problem is not with the charging unit but with the rechargeable battery in the watch....

Chosen Solution Can the 2 GB / PC2-6400 800MHz chips be replaced by a higher memory chip? Yes, it can be done. I own an i-mac intel 20" 2210, and I have managed to increase the RAM to 8 GB using two 4GB modules manufactured by Patriot (Patriot Signature Series) part# psd24g8002s. I am not sure if other modules by other manufacturers would work the same. According to OWC, the 2133 (mid-late 2007) will accept 6 Gb; 4 in the right bank and 2 in the left....

Chosen Solution Hi. Can a damaged u2 ic prevent b Touch ID/home button from functioning at all? It has completely stopped working and the screen never changed/button removed. What are possible causes of this? Thank you. Normally, you wouldn’t expect Tristar to affect the TouchID function but looking through the schematic, I did notice that PP3V0_TRISTAR serves as an input (MOJAVE_EN_M) to MOJAVE MESA. Therefore, if PP3V0_TRISTAR is not present, then it will not enable MESA....

Chosen Solution I have two Nikken Solitens SW-103B units that insufficient power even with new batteries. Can they be reconditioned? First make sure the batteries are installed correctly. Here’s how it’s done: http://bags4mags.com/wordpress/tag/nikke… It appears others have had the same problem with this now discontinued item and gone to another one: http://gettinghealthyusa.com/wordpress/s… UPDATE Roy, it’s a matter of practicality. The thing new is $35. It was discontinued prior to 2009 and I can’t even find a photo of it....

Chosen Solution The gold ribbon cable broke when I did the chip replacement. Can I replace the cable? I know this post is really old, but, it is pretty hard to break the gold cable itself. When it is disconnected, you may think it is broken because there is nothing on the end other than a silverish looking piece …. no connector per se. That silver piece just slides back into the white connector part that is part of the formatter board....
