Chosen Solution Another dumbster kicks in. I just replaced Apple’s massive load of thermal paste with new one on my retina macbook pro 13", 2013 late(A1502). It does charge–I believe, at least the green light turns on– but does not even POST. It doesn’t chime nor starts the fan. If I let the magsafe connected with the intetnal power connector unplugged, the light goes amber and turns green if I try SMC reset–so the keyboard is not dead....

Chosen Solution Hello, i have an iPod Nano 3G and i want to plug it in, but it was water damaged an hour ago. Is it still safe to plug in? I have dried all of the outside. Nope. You are not going to get electrocuted. Your iPod Nano however will most likely short circuit and go to iPod heaven. I suggest that you DO NOT turn it on, sync it, plug it in or do anything else with it....

Chosen Solution The glass on the s6 edge is cracked, everything else works fine (the digitizer/touch panel still works) Can i just follow this guys video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHW-6Hol… Glass only replacements are done by people that have experience in doing LCD refurbishing it’s really not doable for the average DIY person. It requires tools like freeze machine, enclave, LCD mould to get a good finish. If you were to do it yourself, there is a high chance of damaging the LCD and/or not having a good finish on the screen....

Chosen Solution I replaced this guy’s phone screen, it looks all good. two days later, he said when charging the phone will not turn on. But you can feel the vibrating. I re-insert all plug. It works. Two days, it happened again. This time I unplug all wire (LCD, Digitize, batter), try to turn on, the screen is very dim. I can just see the apple logo, which means the phone is turning on....

Chosen Solution I got this iPhone 6 from the AT&T store a little over a month ago and I keep it in a lifeproof case. I haven’t had any problems with it previously but while using it today, it just went black. I assumed it was dead so I plugged it in and nothing happened. I then took the case off and realized my phone was really hot. I let it be for a while to cool down....

Chosen Solution MY HP Pavillion G7 started with green vertical lines on 2/3rds of the screen, from the middle to the right. Now the right 3rd is blank white and the middle 3rd has white or yellow vertical lines. the computer seems to work fine otherwise but because of the blank right side I can’t properly shut down the computer. Please tell me what could be causing this and if I can repair it myself or should I go to a professional....

Chosen Solution MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Mid 2012 - specs - geekbench CPU score I bought it brand new in August 2012. 7 years later it is still running well, but it is kinda slow when i’m running more than 4 programs. as an aspiring web developer, i’ll need a laptop that is fast and can run 4-5 programs smoothly, especially when i’ll be compiling code. thus i’m wondering if it’ll be enough to just fix the problems below, or should i fix it and also upgrade certain parts (tell me which parts), or would it be more feasible to just buy a new laptop?...

Chosen Solution Desire shuts down at 30% power, what can i do? Will a new battery do the same? This sounds like a battery calibration issue. I’ve had batteries that believed they had juice left and died before hitting 10%. I don’t imagine this would be a problem with a new battery. At minimum, I would advise running your battery until it’s empty, then while leaving it off, recharge it to full....

Chosen Solution Hey I was given my girlfriends old iPhone 6, I like to fix things, phone is all smashed and bent but worked fine so I ordered a new housing for the phone, after years of not skipping a beat and buying the new housing it has started searching for signal constantly now, at first I could get signal putting pressure on the sim reader, than it got worst, so I decided some paper on top of the SIM card and insert it would work, it worked for a day, so I stuffed some thicker paper in there and now I can not get it to go at all, all contacts look fine, is there any way I can swap the whole sim reader?...

Chosen Solution After prolonged use, my mini soundlink will suddenly just go silent. It is always hooked up to its AC adaptor and at full charge. If I smack it, the sound instantly returns. I believe it to be a bad connection with the battery. If I pull the battery out and replace it, the sound won’t cut out for a while longer. I don’t want to drop the cash on a new battery if it’s the connection between the speaker and the battery that is faulty....

Chosen Solution I dropped my iPhone 6 a couple of months ago and the touch doesnt work. It works sometimes but after like 10 seconds of it being turned on I cant do anything, it thinks im holding in certain places or it just clicks everywhere. How do I fix this? That sounds like your Digitizer has broke. You will need to replace your existing one with a new one. You can follow the guide below for instructions on how to do this if you wish....

Chosen Solution I cleaned my brewer with white vinegar and used the paperclip trick. The water comes out nicely when there is no K-Cup or if I use the cup that you put your own coffee in. When I use a K-Cup, the water coffee just dribbles out. It’s got to be related to that tube and how the coffee exits the basket when the K-Cup is in there, but I just can’t figure out what the problem is…...

Chosen Solution Hi there, due to some strong temperature changes my TV got condensation in it; it was actually dripping out of the bottom! I’ve been drying the TV out, carefully blow drying on cool and leaving it in a warm room but there are now thick vertical stripes down the left hand side of the screen. Is this TV fixable? Should I take the back off and if so how do I do it?...

Chosen Solution I have a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am 2.4L 4 cyln. Where to set the timing chain if its out of place? Here is a diagram the shows you how it is all setup. Just wondering if you have ever done this kind of work before. It is very involved and not quite as easy… @draccocain Carson, Dom, Below is the 2.4L 4 cyln. timing diagram. Good luck. I hope this helped you out, if so let me know by pressing the helpful button....

Chosen Solution My iphone 6s mute/silent switch doesnt respond correctly when I toggle it. Switch seems to be working fine mechanically (been cleaned as much as possible from the outside). Further, the mute/silent function changes on its own. Sometimes ever couple seconds (even though switch not moving). Seems the audio/power cable (and bracket) need to be replaced. Does the button also need to be replaced? Anyway I can open it up and the solution will be simpler?...

Chosen Solution Hi, My TomTom Go 620 Aussie model is about 2 years old and the battery is dead, so therefore I need to replace the battery. I have found the battery replacement video on YT for this model, but it’s the US model which has a couple of screws at the back of the GPS to be screwed out. On my Aussie model, there are no visible screws that I can find anywhere?...

Chosen Solution The home button keeps falling out of our iPad Air a1474. It pops back in but it doesn’t stay put as the button has a bit broken off its side… Just wondering if this could you be replaced without opening the iPad. This is the home button I require but would like to know if this could be pushed in from the outside of the iPad… https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ipad-Air-1-Ip… Unfortunately, you will have to remove the digitizer in order to replace the Home Button....
