Chosen Solution Anyone know somewhere that can do it for less than $200? I cant spend $500-$1000 just for a few files. This is a repair related Forum, not a business generation site. Do a search on Google for micro-soldering repairs/data recovery in your area and call and ask about their rates. IMHO, doing a iPhone X data recovery job for less than $200 is asking for trouble as it is a difficult device to work on and looking for inexpensive shops is only inviting poor quality work....

Chosen Solution Can i replace the standard sata hard drive in my imac 20" from 2008 (alu)? Yes you can. You might need a 3.5" to 2.5" adapter for it, so I’d try to just find one that would fit right into the HDD bay.

Chosen Solution once reaches temperture and shuts off blows out pilot light? The flame of any natural-gas appliance should be blue in color (with maybe a little yellow at the very tip of the flame). The orange flame of your water heater indicates that the gas is not combusting efficiently, and it’s a sure sign that your heater needs adjustment or repair. This is also a safety concern because it usually means more soot (and possibly carbon monoxide) than normal is being produced by the burner each time it is used....

Chosen Solution Hi guys, I’m fairly new to iFixIt, but I have been repairing iPhones (in the UK) for nearly two years now, so I’m very experienced with hardware repairs. However, one thing that’s always got me confused is the APN numbers for batteries, and the real headaches they cause! It seems that every iPhone I see has a different APN printed on the battery, and in my experience, replacing it with a battery of a different APN causes it to either not power on properly, or cause “Error 29” when trying to restore....
