Chosen Solution Just replaced my dying battery with one from ifixit. The white charging light appears when I attach the ac adapter, then I get four orange flashes. The internet says this means a bad battery. Did I receive a bad battery or is there something else that could be at play here? EPILOGUE: I followed the recommendation, started the process. For giggles, I unplugged and repeated the connection and realized it had been user error....

Chosen Solution I have tried several different headphones in my brand new Samsung Galaxy S III, but sound only plays from the left side of the headphones.

Is there a way to repair this?...

Chosen Solution I have a Galaxy S8 G950OU that used to overheat when charging then shut down. It would resume operation after it cooled down.

I’ve gone the soft reset, cache clearing and finally factory reset route with it, and even installed a new battery....

Chosen Solution Hi, I have a Panasonic viera TX-L32E3B, the Tele itself is turning on the the LED is green but no sound or picture is coming on. The light flashes about 20x while turning on. Could anyone advise? @mrs_copus your panasonic only goes up to 14 blinks on POST so there is no 20 :-) Since “the Tele itself is turning on” and “no sound or picture is coming on” is a pretty good indication that your TV has issues with the A-board....

Chosen Solution I recently dropped my iPhone 6, the edge of the phone is shattered but not many cracks going through the screen otherwise, I know that I have to get the glass fixed seeing as the glass is practically popped out almost.

Chosen Solution I’ve replaced the hard drive in my ipod 6th gen. To the best of knowledge and a lot of tutorial advice it went smoothly. I haven’t put the casing back together yet.

Chosen Solution Dell XPS 13 9310. Headphone output is broken- can only put headphone jack part way. Can’t see a foreign object in there. Is the headphone port soldered onto the system board?

Chosen Solution Hello, I’ve got a Nikon Coolpix L110 camera that has had a on again, off again shutter release issue since I bought it 6 - 7 years ago. It either works fine or I have to hold hard, constant pressure on it. It’s gotta be that pressure sensor, right? So, I’d like to replace the shutter release. I’m looking for a disassembly guide or schematic. Thanks for any advice!...

Chosen Solution I changed all with a new cable (headphone jack + hold switch) and it didn’t work. I tried two perfectly functional backplates (headphone jack + hold switch) on this iPod 5th gen, and none worked. I tried them on a different iPod (a 6th gen) and they worked fine. clearly the problem is NOT replacing the entire hold switch circuit with headphone jack, the problem is something else. it’s very frustrating...

Is it dangerous to do so and should I just buy a new battery even though this one is brand new?...
