Chosen Solution We had a customer come in months ago for a battery and charging port replacement. After looking at his phone we determined that was the correct course of action. We replaced both. A month later the same customer came back with the same issue – the phone won’t turn on and won’t take a charge from the cable, he can’t get it to do anything again. We again replace the battery (not the charging port) and everything is fine again....

Chosen Solution This was a nice radio but it just stopped working. What might be the steps to diagnose the problem? I am FAR from being an electrical sort of guy but I am persistent. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you. Hi @mikelit, You will have to open the radio and start checking for any obvious problems, preferably with a DMM (digital multimeter). With the power disconnected (also remove the backup batteries, if any installed) and after the radio has been opened, use the DMM’s Ohmmeter function to make sure that the power cord is OK from the plug to where the cord terminates in the radio....

Is it possible to add it? You’ll need a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter such as this one: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20W…
Chosen Solution I have a iphone se 1st gen with broken home button. If i install a new home button from another iphone se 1st gen will the touch ID will still work ? No. In iPhones with Touch ID, the Home Button is paired to each iPhone. So if you swapped a home button with working Touch ID from an iPhone SE into another iPhone SE, the home button would work as a home button, but Touch ID wouldn’t work....

Chosen Solution Is there a way to change the color of the keyboard backlight on this model? Hi @vividbubbles , What keyboard backlight colour do you have now? This is how to check if your model has the keyboard backlight feature. I’m only asking because the user manual (taken from this Asus support page) doesn’t mention the backlight feature for the keyboard at all. If you do have the feature, and you have Win 10 installed, try downloading and installing the latest Asus ATK Package drivers....

You might find someone able to add FM (in the uk) to the radio, but for the cost of doing so and the fact it will likely not work on the same channels (frequency wise) as the UK standard. Sell it and get a EU model and you’ll be set :)...
