Chosen Solution Screen doesn’t show physical damage only internal.. How can I fix this? Hi, As you can see, in the upper right corner of the screen there is a crack (circled in red) in the liquid crystal layer of the screen, which is most likely causing the horizontal lines going through the LCD. I would send the the laptop to a repair shop for them to fix it for you because the Surface Laptop is very, very difficult (or maybe even impossible!...

Chosen Solution I have an Honor 6X with a strongly decreased battery life so I started looking for a new one. The original ones I was able to find are also from 2017 but the OEM ones are often newer. @fenndweller always be cautious when sellers use the term OEM. It is usually only the manufacturer of the device that has access to the OEM, so in your case Huawei. Sellers use the term OEM very liberal to describe batteries that are build to the same specs as OEM’s....

Chosen Solution Should I re-apply loctite on the MacBook Pro bottom shell screws after upgrading my hard drive? I have the unibody with non-user replaceable battery. Also, is it bad to open the bottom shell once a month to make a hard drive swap? Are the screws and the threads in the case going to wear out? I would never use loctite on a computer. You could find yourself unable to remove the screws to do repairs....

Chosen Solution I purchased for an iPhone 5S a Power On/Off Lock Mute & Volume Switch Button Flex Ribbon Cable and tried to install it myself. Everything went OK except one small jumper that fell-off and now I cannot identify its location. It must be located in the upper part of the chassis between back camera and vibrator. This jumper is 0.8cm long, color is black and difficult to read a number 486 (I believe) on it....

Chosen Solution I recently tried to replace the internal hard drive with a 1TB Crucial MX500 SSD but the iMac doesn’t recognise it when it’s connected internally. It doesn’t come up in Disk Utility at all. iMac is an 18,2 Retina 4k The original HDD still works when I connect it internally, so I know the cable isn’t broken. The new drive works fine in an external enclosure, so I know the drive is working....

Chosen Solution battery replaced but tablet will not reboot. after charging LED blinks three times. what are steps to reboot? How long have you kept it on charge? In some cases some batteries are dead flat and take a long time to even just show the charging logo on screen.

Chosen Solution My Superdrive has begun making a low pitched gravely noise and sometimes works, sometimes not. Does anyone know if you can lubricate the spindle? The iMac recognizes the drive, and recognizes the disc, but cannot finish a burn. I’ve never seen anyone repair one of these drives with the exception of cleaning the lens. You can replace the drive or go with an external drive that will move to your next machine....

I searched and searched for answers long time but can not find any solution to Lenovo x140e. I have been looking for EEPROM but can not find it. Is there anyone here who has any of the same problems....

Chosen Solution Can I repair/replace the screen on my Model No D-720 Hi, Here’s a link to a video that shows how to dis-assemble the camera so that access to the LCD screen is possible. Here’s a link to a supplier of a replacement screen. It is shown just to give you an idea of the cost of the part. There are other suppliers online that may suit you better. Just search for Olympus D-720 LCD screen part to get results....

Chosen Solution I have a ps4 slim cuh-2015B. It was working fine, I was watching a movie on DVD and an update message came on.

So I go online to find out how to remove the dvd then find out what the error code was....

Chosen Solution I have a PS4 that when turned on has a pulsing blue light. When turned on normally, it could stay on for I don’t even know how long. When turned on by attempting to boot to safe mode, it does the second beep but still no signal (have tried multiple tvs) and after a couple seconds shuts off. Any ideas? This is a common problem for PS4’s. The most likely cause is faulty solder joints between the APU and motherboard....

Chosen Solution I’ve replaced the lcd on a ipad mini and now the device won’t power up , any ideas? It’s possible that it is powering on, but there’s no display. You may want to check your connections, or check your old display, to rule out the new display as an issue

Chosen Solution I am about to buy a replacement display to determine whether or not the display is causing my device to appear dead. However, in order to be able to return the display if that´s not the issue I am trying to figure out if the display would work without attaching faceid and just plugging in the two display flex cables. Thanks. Yes, to try if the screen is working alright you only have to connect the 2 flex cables from new screen to the logic board....

Chosen Solution Hello everyone! I’ve repaired these 4th Generation iPod touch’s by replacing the display before, and I consistently have the same problem with doing it. After I’m done with everything, the 3M adhesive strips simply DO NOT keep the glass down. The screen will always pull away and lift off after about 10 minutes. The glass parts are clean and free from hand oils and it just doesn’t stick. :( My next option is to epoxy the display on, but I don’t want to do that because if the iPod breaks again, I won’t be able to remove the display....

Chosen Solution not much else to add. it is actually an sp-550uz, same design. thanks Hi, Here is a link to a video which shows the dis-assembly of an Olympus SP-590uz to repair the lens.. I realize that this is not your model or the problem with your camera but perhaps it is close enough to your model design to be of some help. At 2:30 minutes into the video, the back cover (including the battery compartment door) has been removed from the body of the camera....

Chosen Solution Hello The black rubber home button on our IPad 4 popped off and is gone. We can’t find it. The home button is still functioning— I can use my finger to dig in and tap and it works, so we do not need a new home button assembly. We only need to replace that black rubber button. I’ve searched and can’t find anything. Help! Thanks in advance. You can find the Home Button here and the repair guide here....

Chosen Solution I understand that the Server model is only available in a 2 drive configuration. Therefore it must have both cables. Also, the base model $599 version is only available from Apple as a single drive. Therefore it is definitely Not included. So, the question is, will a $799 mini that is configured from Apple in a single-drive configuration include the second cable as well, or not? No, unfortunately Apple has decided not to include the proprietary second hard drive cables in their non-server models....
