Chosen Solution Hi, I’ve purchased a iPhone 4S off ebay with the aim of fixing it. It is in great condition inside and out, however won’t turn on or boot and there is no display. When plugged into the wall socket it just makes the charging chirp sound over and over again, but that is all. When plugged into a computer it does nothing, no show in iTunes. All the seller was able to say was that he tried to fix the screen and it worked before that, but couldn’t get it to work properly after that....

Chosen Solution I have a Lenovo Yoga 2 8" tablet with a cracked screen. Recently it’s also decided to stop charging. I don’t think they are linked or not but I could certainly do with some advice on fixing both problems. Please can anyone help? Hi! Chrissy You need to search for a A+ Certified Service Shop in your area but If you decide to do it for yourself, for your screen you need to buying a new one Verify in Ebay with the correct model and part number of your laptop and compare the photo with your laptop screen before you buying and select the best price for you (It is best if you disarm the screen before searching and buying to make sure it is correct part number) This is the WEB address of the service manual of you computer according to your information, https://thinkpads....

Chosen Solution I have ordered this screen from Ifixit before, so this is the second replacement part. It should be the exact same, however, I noticed that the camera is supposed to be connected to the thermal plate via a black square of protective copper tape, from what youtube tells me anyway. On my new part, this connection is completely missing, and it looks like the wire is covered with electrical tape....

Chosen Solution Hi, Following on from this thread: Rear camera glass replacement Where my rear camera glass was smashed. So I replaced the camera glass. Had to open the phone up and then it’s a simple job. Got everything back fine. Phone works as it did before…EXCEPT… The contactless function of Apple Pay appears to now longer work. It worked perfectly before… What did I do??? in the upper right hand corner is the NFC connector....

Chosen Solution I found a burned-out microchip on our Asus X53U PBL60 LA-7322P Rev: 1A, but I couldn’t find it on the internet after reading the surfaces of the same components PQ206, PQ701 etc. It looks like 740B BV1HC32 , however, I’m not quite sure without a magnifying glass. Could anyone help to recognise it?) Hi @organicnz , I think it could be PQ202 and it’s component AON7408L_DFN8-5, same as PQ206, PQ108, PQ303, PQ305, PQ501 and PQ701....

Chosen Solution I have a Toshiba Satellite L75 with a broken monitor so I hooked up a monitor via hdmi. I was having a bunch of problems running slow and there was to much crap on this computer so I decided to do a reset on it to factory while leaving my files. Everything was fine while I could see what was going on and then it went into restart and I lost the monitor....

Chosen Solution Hello, I just fount out that my iPhone 7 has this issue. It was working for a while after pressing hard on the chip, etc. but eventually stopped working completely. Short version: Can I replace the chip completely with new one without making my iPhone totally non-functional, or do I have to do thing with jumpers/reballing. I found out that you have to do this jumper thing I watched many videos and every is different (probably because it depends on where exactly on that chip the problem is) however I also found browsing aliexpress this chip here: https://www....

Chosen Solution I have a 1995 Isuzu Trooper 4x4 with an Automatic Transmission, The so-called tranny shop that rebuilt it used no lock tite on any bolts at all. First, the torque converter bolts backed out, got that fixed, then the bell housing bolts that hold the bell housing to the OD case all backed out and the tranny slid apart. So Now I need to find out the Bolt size and length and how many there were, so when I go to rebuild this thing I can make sure I get everything that I will need to complete the rebuild and do it right the first time....

Chosen Solution Hi, here’s my issue. The logic board on my Macbook Pro needs replaced and Apple will do that. I first need to get all my data from the hard drive before sending it in for repair. I understand I need to remove the hard drive (since the Macbook won’t boot up) and put the hard drive into an enclosure. But, I don’t have access to another Mac, just a PC....

Chosen Solution I broke my macbook screen late 2009 model last week, it isn’t totalled but it has black and colored spots on the top right corner. So, can I fix it in home or have to replace it? If you can find the display replacement, of course you can do it yourself. Now, I must tell you that display installation is not for the faint of heart. It requires much patience and organizational skills....

Chosen Solution Can 16gb internal storage be upgraded to 32gb? @Danj is right as far as the internal storage is concerned but this tablet can have its storage capacity increased with an sd card . Up to 128gb, one of the advantages of a samsung is its storage . Hope this helps Sorry no, the RAM is soldered to the logic board. Your only choice would be to swap out the logic board which is not really economical....

Chosen Solution I have a old laptop which is 1.4 Ghz and 121 flash storage. Recently I would like to buy some 2012 8gb 2.0Ghz logic board to replace the original logic board. Is that doable and is there any recommendation or advice? Thank you! From what I can tell from your post, it’s sounding like you have a 2014 MBA and would like to install a 2012 Logic Board into it....

Chosen Solution Hello, I have a 60” Samsung led TV model un60j6200afxzc. When I plug the tv in it keeps making a poping noise every few seconds, then turns off. I opened the back, checked the power board for bulged or leaking capacitors, and no cracked solder joints either. I tested the mosfets, no shorts, main fuse is good, diodes all tested okay too. With the back off it sounded like it’s coming through the hole in the Frame where the wires go to power the led strips....

Chosen Solution On the back of the super nintendo there is a prong where the power cord plugs in, I have replaced my cord, thinking it may have been a short, but it seems the prong itself is loose, causing the system to power off if it is moved slightly. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks Jo Look at the end of the plug and see if the outer retaining metal ring has been spread....

Chosen Solution It feels like… loose. Like the console does not grab very well the cartridge. For that reason most of my games dont work (blinking screen). You can disassemble the NES and replace the existing cart loader with a female-female 72pin connector. You’ll probably be able to find one on the net with a little searching. Otherwise you can use a jewelers screwdriver to bend the old contacts down a bit....
