Chosen Solution two years ago somebody gave me there iPhone 4 that was dropped into a toilet and never gave any sign of live ever since. she wanted to true it away and i just said to give it to me since i just like to fool around with old or broken electronics and search for what still can be used. i forget about it, but came across it two days ago, and thought “maybe all the water dried out of this thing, maybe it will work”,i didn’t had any hopes what so ever for it, but i had a charging cable laying around and plugged it in “nothing to loose”....

Chosen Solution My Canon PowerShot SX610 HS camera isn’t turning on after a canoe trip. I have it in rice right now. is there anything I should do? i also heard a weird crackling noise right before i turned it on. if that helps @redboyryanyt you do want to take it out of the rice. Rice does not do anything. It does not prevent corrosion, it will not repair your camera....

Chosen Solution Where can I get a white replacment screen? If you meant a white digitizer screen then eBay has them or just do a search on google for “white digitizer screen.” You can’t. No one makes them. A white screen means something is messed up with the phone (as in all it displays it white). yes you can buy a white digitizer for your ipod here is a link to one....

Chosen Solution I know this processor/system is meant to be low wattage etc. but i would feel safer if this laptop didn’t potentially break down during gaming hours. I’m content with the fps it can give me during games so I would like to know if I can just install a fan . Anthony, You may find you do not need additional fan by keeping laptop clean and using it on a hard dust free surface....

Chosen Solution Hello! I was wondering is I could add something to an iPhone 6 to make it water resistant. I already have the screen adhesive strips for an iPhone 6s, but will I need anything else to make it water resistant, or is not possible? @albert8181 just because there are rubber gaskets at the Home and volume buttons does absolutely not mean it is water resistant. There are just to many areas where water will still enter your phone....

Chosen Solution So I have a broken iphone 7 plus with a good battery on it, and I would like to use that for my iPhone 6s Plus that has a very old battery, is it possible? What are the risks and problems i am going to face? It won’t work, the iPhone charging circuit will just get mixed up by receiving wrong data and reboot every now and then; even with a correct connector logic side is different....

Chosen Solution My friend asked me to fix his iPhone and the problem with it is the battery percentage and he says that it does not warn him when his battery is at 20% 10% nor does it give him a battery symbol when the battery is dead. I had this problem with my own iPhone 6 but I just got mine replaced. Can I just use a heat gun on the u2 IC to try and reflow it?...

Chosen Solution I have an ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 TP410UAR that will boot into Windows/Linux/USB but when I try to get to the BIOS configuration I get a black screen. Last thing I did was putting it to Legacy mode instead of UEFI and replace the hard drive because the old one was DOA Fixed. The hard drive was interfering with it somehow, removed it and now I can get in...

Chosen Solution I’ve seen multiple tear downs of the 2019 imac, but all of them have been of the fusion drive versions. I own a 500GB SSD version, and am wondering if I open it up can I still install an additional separate SATA SSD where the HDD would normally be in a fusion configuration? Do I just need the proper cables to connect the SATA SSD and that’s it?...

Chosen Solution Recently I Replaced Full Housing Of iPhone X. The Only Problem i am facing is with Compass. It wont Budget. So far what i tried : Full wipe and updateremoving the case although its soft silicon You may have damaged the Compass IC during the repair. It is on one of the flexes (can’t remember exactly) so you’ll want to closely inspect the Lightning and Button flexes to insure everything is in good shape....

Chosen Solution So I have this old Macbook from late 2009 from which it’s processor tends to heat up rather quickly when doing something small like watching a video or browsing the web in general. I have replaced the old paste for getting better thermal performance, but the results weren’t really that significant. So my question is, is this a known issue with this old model? I am just a little bit worried, because on occasions, it tends to go up to nearly 80°C....

Chosen Solution Hi, Just a question, have apple fully taken down the Apple TV 3 (I have A1469) activation servers down? I have reset my ATV many times and it always says activation failed in Settings-General-About. This also removes AirPlay which is the only reason I need the Apple TV. I’ve seen many other people with this issue but I still don’t know if it is a one time problem that is hard to fix and they are repairing it or if they are fully down forever....

Chosen Solution My ASUS ME302C tablet stopped charging the battery 2-3 weeks back. Tried various tricks but nothing worked. Finally now i am able to charge my battery by jump-start method. I removed the battery, cut the mobile charger wire, directly attached the charger wires to battery for 2 hours. This way my battery got good 40% charge. Then i put it back in tablet. And tablet worked fine. Now the problem is the regular chargers are not charging the battery....

Chosen Solution on startup thru the bar gain at 3/4 the mac shuts down did a PRAM reset three chimes still having the issue battery works if start up is n cable and then removed too battery but will not start on just battery power With this little info you supply you’re looking for a wiz more than a tech, however if it’s a 2011 i7 quadcore it’s probably another dead GPU....

Chosen Solution After I installed Samsung EVO 860 SSD with OWC inline thermal sensor, I am having issues with hibernation. I can put the iMac to sleep the screen goes black, but I can still hear some faint fan noises. Trying to wake up from hibernation does nothing. I eventually have to hold down the power button to restart everything. This is what I have done which failed to solve it:...
