Chosen Solution We did this repair a few days ago for a client and all was ok—except 3 days after the repair, client came back notifying that iPad was not charging. We believe that we forgot the screw that attach the board to the battery, and when we verify, yes it was not there! We put it back ……but still no charge, no boot! iPad was working all good except for the digitizer crack before we worked on it!...

All other parts are different....

Chosen Solution I was trying to replace a cracked iPhone 5s screen (as I’d done successfully in the past). When I powered it on after the repair, the display had problems. (See images) I posted to this forum to ask for troubleshooting suggestions and received great responses from @syncedrepairs and @jimfixer who confirmed my suspicion that I should double check the connections. Unfortunately, opening the iPhone 5s (with a small suction cup) was challenging....

The old school way was to loosen the fittings on the injectors to bleed the air out. Crank the engine over till fuel flows. Once fuel flows out all 4, 6, or 8 fuel tubes you tighten the fittings and clean up. Then it should be ready to go....

Chosen Solution Hi, I have a question about repairing and ipod classic. I broke the chip pins that attaches the battery to the logic board. Is there anyway to reattach that chip back to the board?

Chosen Solution The tablet has a mini USB port. It broke off and now I can’t charge the device. Any guidance for replacing the USB port or charging it with another port (HDMI)? I‘m afraid that you will have to desolder the USB connector and solder a new one in its place. Charging over HDMI doesn‘t exist I‘m afraid. You’ll have to crack open the device, locate the USB port and then use or acquire some SMD soldering skills....

Chosen Solution Hello, Can anyone help me solve this issue? While I was replacing the LCD/Digitizer of the iPhone 5 I did not realized that I had to unscrew the camera, and also the home button and replace it back to the new LCD, while I moved the camera from the old LCD/digitizer to the new LCD/Digitizer which was pretty decent, afterwards I had to move the home button, while unscrewing the silver metal plate and then the home button itself, there was a orange circular component that was attached to the old LCD, and what happen was that in order to take it out I slowly ripped it out since the bottom was dried glue, and then I re-assembled all the components (re-connected the 3 metal strip cables to the top right of the phone, reconnected the connector of the battery to the iPhone, and also screw back in the screws to make sure that the metal plate that was connected to the battery is secured), then I slowly assemble the LCD screen back into the body....
