Chosen Solution I just upgraded the drive on my 2009 iMac to a 500GB SSD using the iFixit kit. Everything is good but the hard drive fan now runs at full speed all the time which I gather is a common problem after SSD upgrades. I am temporarily managing it by overriding system fan control using TG Pro to keep the fan speed down but doesn’t seem like a good, long-term solution....
Chosen Solution I opened up my phone to do a battery replacement. This went quite well In every way, except for the fact that my home button no longer works. I get an alert that says “touch ID cannot be activated on this iPhone”, and the button just simply stopped working. I’ve looked for tears in the ribbon cables, checked all of the connections, and tried hard resetting etc. What do I do?...
Chosen Solution I recently took my ps4 apart to replace the optical drive, now the touch sensor, both power and disc tray sensor, are unresponsive to touch. There are several things that could have happened here. You’ll need to first check to make sure the plastic covers all line up correctly. If they don’t then the contacts might not be touching. Inside the plastic case pieces there are metal pieces that connect the buttons to metal pads on the motherboard and the optical drive board....

Chosen Solution I have bought a broken iphone 6 from eBay to learn micro soldering and repairs. It is all going well but this device came to me and has been worked on before. Many of the capacitors have been ripped off the board, mainly on VCC_MAIN. I found the main fault which was a shorted PP1V8_SDRAM, the short was caused by a faulty PMIC which has been replaced. When connected to a bench PSU the phone at power on draws around 45mA and does not boot....
Chosen Solution Hi everyone! I have a Dell U2717D monitor. Unfortunately, there are a few vertical lines in a spot of the screen. I’ve read a bit on the internet trying to find a solution. I’m used to repair screens that don’t power on (faulty capacitors), but not this type of problem (pixels). First of all, the problem occurs even without connection to a PC. So, it is not a bad cable such as HDMI or DisplayPort....
Chosen Solution Hi, I just made a OS-service-update, after that disconnected the iMac and carried it downstairs to another room. When booting, the display had stopped working. When booting, it seems as if she starts, shuts of, and starts again. External HD, wi-fi keyboard/mouse all signal that they are operational when iMac is turned on. Inside, there seem to be some slow “cycling” going on. I see no hidden images when shining with a flashlight....

Chosen Solution I’ve cleaned the inside of ear speaker but still it results very low audio does anyone know a solution? You could try a replacement earspeaker. However if that doesn’t work, then consider the possibility that your phone suffers from the Audio IC issue. The iPhone 7 series of devices have proven to be very unreliable, suffering from flex-based issues similar to the iPhone 6 Plus (Touch Disease). On the iPhone 7, the fault line runs along the top of the SIM card reader and affects the Baseband CPU and Audio IC....
Chosen Solution I want upgrade my emmc 32gb to 128gb, is it possible to upgrade. No. Only option is an SD card or “stubby” USB flash drive for storage. These systems are really just for typing and browsing.
Chosen Solution Everything works but the paddle doesn’t turn and has no engine noise. It heats and lights up. melwoodonly, If still under warranty use it to have bread maker repaired/replaced/refund. You did not state your make/model#, so I will post some what generic answer. The motor may be faulty, or internal wire/plug may be loose/broke/burnt, limit switch if equipped faulty, bad control board, etc..You will have to disassemble the bread maker so you can do a visual inspection for loose components and test the motor etc....
Chosen Solution Anyone know what would be causing the fan to do this? https://youtu.be/VeF9XoOjnJo I sent it into Sony Warranty repair for a HD issue and it came back doing this. I’d prefer not to send it back to them for a month in hopes of maybe getting it back in good shape (Fallout is coming out in a month!). Is there any easier fix than taking the whole thing apart to replace the fan?...

Chosen Solution I have this ZTE Model Z667T cell phone from 2014 that I use only to listen to YouTube if I’m working on my other cell phone or my tablet. For some reason, I put a pattern lock on it and I totally forgot what it was and this phone is not activated and my Google account is still on it but I cannot figure out this pattern and I don’t know what possessed me to even make it , so I’m wondering, is there anyway I could figure out how to get back into using it?...
Chosen Solution Games will not load on my son’s DSI. Gives you the message that you need to hold the power button down and then refer to the owners manual. I do not know where the manual is. He has tried the game in his DS Lite and it worked, this is not a downloaded game it is a game we bought that has worked before now. Thanks try cleaning the gold contacts of the game and the DSi with a cotton tip dampened with ethanol, methanol or similar and then allow to dry....
Chosen Solution when i turn on phone get the apple symbol and 5-6 lines across the top. looks like code, is there any fix for this? can i trade-in/fix? suggestions/? The code across the screen is a nand error caused by a faulty front camera flex. Ideally the phobe would need treated for water damage using ISO alcohol. You can just disconnect the front camera flex only then power in see does it boot up
Chosen Solution Power connected, no calcification water filled. It just won’t work. Hi, Is the power led glowing red when you turn it on? Does it turn green after a while? If it does neither then there is a problem with the power supply circuit in the unit. Has it worked before and if so how long have you had the unit? If less than 12 months make a claim for a warranty repair/replacement from the manufacturer....
Chosen Solution Half of the display are black but the touch still work properly. What should i do ? Hey, Sounds like you will need to have your Display replaced. The backlights appears to have failed. If you have a new display to hand, I would test it with your handset before doing a complete install. I hope this helps.
