Chosen Solution My tv is NOT the one I selected, Model number not in list 47LN5400-UA manufactured oct 2013 tried turning it off and on, tried to adjust he picture, but can barely see anything. Tried unplugging while holding down the power button for 30-60 seconds and plugging back in while button depressed, still no picture but with sound. It does this regardless of the input so I know it’s not my PlayStation or the cable box or the wii...

Chosen Solution Hi, I’m using a OG pixel 5" from 2016 currently facing a serious issue. It seems that it constantly freeze out of nowhere. The screen freezes then turn black and unresponsive even pressing the power button it doesn’t respond. After a period of time, the lock screen would come back and seems to work for a few minute then freezes again. Sometime it prevent me from restart or turning it off so I have to hold the power button to restart....

Chosen Solution I’ve heard the MacBook Pro WITHOUT the touch bar uses a standard SSD that is not soldered to the mother board. Can you advise if this is true and if the SSD could be upgraded or replaced at a later date or if it’s a one time only installation. Update (12/28/2016) Apple MacBook Pro Core I7 15" Late 2016 specs. You can replace the ssd, although it does not have a standard shape and the ssd is hard to come by....

Chosen Solution Awhile ago I couldn’t maintain decent audio quality without twisting or angling the cord to my headphones. It became too much of a hassle to keep fussing with it and I thought for sure the cord was bad, so I abandoned it and settled for using the Bluetooth function on my headphones until I got a new one. When I use Bluetooth, the sound quality is fine and I have no issues - however, I JUST got a new cord today and when I tried it out, the quality was bad and only worked when I twisted it just like before!...

Chosen Solution After I replaced the battery, initially the home button worked as did the passcode, but the phone said touch ID not able to be initiated. After I disconnected the flex cable and reattached it even the passcode option didn’t come up, and nothing happens when I press the home button. Do I need to replace just the flex cable between the LCD screen/home button and the rest of the phone or should I replace the home button itself, as well as the flex cable?...

Chosen Solution Something like Android SSD cards, or What hardware to I need to exchange to increase the internal memory? What is the name? What is the average price? You’ll need BGA chip rework skills and special hardware/software tools to edit low-level data of the flash memory chip so the phone can accept the new chip. It’s not as easy as an SD card swap for Android phones. Unfortunately, there are no Apple products designed to have expandable memory....

Chosen Solution I currently own an iPhone 6S , which has a CLEAN logic board (no water damage and no visual physical damage) , and the iPhone does not power on at all. It might be a short in VCC_MAIN, but I have no idea how to identify the shorted component. How can I truly identify the shorted “line” and the shorted component on the logic board that prevents my iPhone from powering on?...

The first thing you could try is to increase the power to your laser. Follow this guide. Just be moderate, you do not want to burn it out. The other thing to try would be a recalibration of the lens. For that follow this guide....

Chosen Solution I’ve heard that taking apart a CRT can be dangerous, so before I go ahead on the eMac teardown I plan to create for iFixit, I’d like to know any hazards. Is taking apart a CRT really that dangerous? A CRT can hold several THOUSAND volts of electricity in its flyback circuitry. If you do not have the necessary experience and tools to properly discharge and make safe a CRT, you should not even take the plastic cover off....

When plugging in, it supplies my 2011 MBA power via MagSafe but: -The panel shows no signs of life -System Report on the MBA doesn’t register any external USB or iSight devices When opened, the power supply has some residue on the front of the board. Going through the deep dive for Dead Unit/No Power in Apple’s technician PDF:...

Chosen Solution I replaced my LCD and digitizer today and now the screen is unresponsive at times and needs to be pressed hard to respond. I’ve reseated the cables and it seems fine at first but always reverts back to its unresponsive state after a bit of use. @tylerm_c Before replacing it try cleaning the screen contacts with IP alcohol. There could be small partials of dust in the contact which can cause problems....

Chosen Solution My ipod touch screen cracked I’m sorry, the iPod Touch 3rd Gen front panel is not cross-compatible with the 4th Gen and vice-versa. The 3rd gen. screen has a frame. The 4th gen. Touch has the LCD and touch screen glued together. Therefore a screen for 4th gen. is usually 4 times the price of 3rd gen.

Chosen Solution I dropped the GBA SP one day and i see a red line on the middle of the screen. Only one. The GBA SP still plays games, and charges, but sometimes the games for the GBA freeze. Can still read Game Boy, Color and Advance games. But with these freezing GBA Games i cant complete Metroid: Zero Mission… Also, the GBA SP i have is used. But in November, i dropped it AGAIN and received no damage, fortunately!...

Chosen Solution My MacBook Pro A1990 fan began erratically spinning. I reset the SMC to no avail. Fan control will intermittently sense it as spinning, or will report it at 0RPM (which is when it begins spinning faster). I replaced the R fan which was the misbehaving fan, and this behavior remains. All the temperature sensors appear to be operating normal. Hardware test shows PPF003 PPF004 which is what it showed prior to fan replacement as well....
