Chosen Solution Yesterday I dropped my phone, and it was working fine when I picked it up to check it, but a few minutes later the screen went black. I know it was still working, because I was still receiving phone calls, texts, and mail. I even took a picture with it. I’ve tried holding the home and lock button. I also tried holding the lock button while constantly pressing the home button, but I think the problem with this is that my home button barely worked before the drop....

Chosen Solution I messed up, and rounded 3 screws inside the Moto X. How would I remove them? If you have access to a dremil tool take the fines cutting wheel you can find and cut a slot in the head of the screw and then use a flat screw driver to get it out . I have also had some success with using crazy glue or super glue to glue a screw driver to the screw to come out but be very careful to not get any glue on the surrounding area or you’ll never get it apart

Chosen Solution Hi, Just as the title says, I have been unable to recharge my HTC M8. I tried using different USB cords without success. Only one of them managed to lit up the recharge light when I insert at certain angle. Otherwise no matter which cords I use, it would not recharge. And I used these USB cords on other phones so I know they are not the issue. All feedback welcome....

Chosen Solution I recently replaced the optical drive in my late-2008 Unibody MBP. When I powered it up, the system reported no Airport card so I re-opened and checked the connectors to the display. After closing and starting up I heard a soft “pop” and smelled smoke, so immediately shut it off by holding the power key. After removing the logic board I have found a burned component - shown in the attached image....

Chosen Solution What can I do to make this a good hand-me-down computer? General uses would include school work, some internet research …. not sure what else a pre-teen would need to do. The battery report says —-“service battery” (673 cycles). SO, I assume it could use a new battery. But what else should/could be done? It also needs a new power cord (the cord is frayed due to the angle where it plugs into the computer - not a good design) Any help is appreciated....

Chosen Solution Hi all, Since last week i got vertical stripes on my imac. Apple said its due to the 6970m 2gb failure but my mac is out of warrenty for it. Also for the recall a while ago. I checked the internet but an replacement would cost me 600-800 usd. Which would not make sense on a 2.000 usd machine of nearly 5 years old. Do you know if your stuck with the apple card or could you repair this with a dell 6970m card 2gb ram that is only 150-200 usd?...

Chosen Solution I got an iPhone 4 off ebay in a parts lot. After disconnecting and reconnecting the battery for no reason, the phone time shows December 31 1969. One of the Liquid indicators in the motherbord is RED. Could the incorrect date be a sign of water damage, even though I think the date was correct before unplugging and reconnecting the battery? When the battery is unplugged the date and time is reset because there is no battery on the logic board to keep the date and time in memory....

Chosen Solution Hi all, This is going to be very descriptive so please read all. I bought an iPhone 4S marked as faulty. It was known to have smashed screen and stuck on an iTunes screen. I repaired the screen and that was working 100% fine. I then went to charge it (I have 3 batteries, 1 original iPhone battery what was 2 years old, but still worked, I have a eBay battery what worked perfect on another iPhone 4S I had, and I have the battery what looks like a replacement one what came with this iPhone) I managed to charge all three enough to get to the recovery mode screen, I don’t think the seller realised that it was simply getting it out of recovery mode....

Chosen Solution Hi everyone! I broke my iPhone 6 screen really bad (caused the screen to shatter and chunks went off). The screen stayed lit up for a few hours but nothing was readable (just white and some splash of colors like when you press on an LCD really hard). The phone screen turned black and i thought the phone needed charging. I charged the phone 10hours later but the screen stayed black and no sound that indicates that it is charging....
