Chosen Solution Just bought a new screen and battery for my iPhone 5s. Just replaced both pieces following tutorials and everything went ok. The phone just turned on and apparently everything was working. However, when I started using the phone I noticed that the screen turns off when opening any app. If I lock and unlock the phone, it works again. If open another app, the screen turns off. Based on this, I’d say it seems that the battery does not have enough power to keep the screen on…?...

Chosen Solution I have decided to update to OS-X El Capitan, I also understand that AVerTV are not inclined to update their software to make it compatible with the El Capitan.

Narayanan Lakshmanan from India I think you just have an older version of the product which they have discontinued....

Chosen Solution Hi, i’m looking to repair the Home button on my iPhone, I know very well, that with the iPhone 7-8 Plus, when you replace the home button, it no longer works in any way at all. But Very Recently Manufacturers like JC, BFX, and Shalou are making home buttons that work like a real Apple (Probably Foxconn) home button with the haptic feedback and response, etc. I also come across this tool made by JC called the FT-1, have any of you got any experience with it....

Chosen Solution Hi iFixit, I recently replaced my hard drive with an SSD using this bundle: iMac Intel 21.5" Retina 4K Display Hard Drive Replacement The speed works great and the repair was easy.

Chosen Solution Getting random restarts and random kernel errors like: mdworker, imklaunchangent, AssetCacheLocato, to UNKOWN and among others. I did a fresh install quite a few times but same results. I’ve also tried removing one SO-DMM , then the other, different drives, different RAM and essentially it still restarts with random Kernel errors. Mac Mini mid 2010, 16GB memory , 250GB SSD, macOS High Sierra Any suggestions? RAM is becoming a bigger issue these days as people often put in faster RAM than what Apple spec’ed for the system thinking they would get more performance....

Chosen Solution my blackberry leap just red light blinking? If the light blinks twice fast then slow 3 times but never turns on, it means the device is soft bricked. This happens when the OS is corrupted or somehow the wrong version of the OS has been flashed on (Like I did). You will need to do a factory reset to bring it back to life. im assuming the device itself does not boot up for this, because the red light blinks when you have notificationas as well....

Chosen Solution The only way I can get the computer to restart is by doing the following: I hold down the shift key, control key, option key and power button for 10 seconds . then I have to open up the case, remove the battery, replug it in, and then the computer restarts if I depress the power button after plugging the battery back in. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?...

Chosen Solution Hi, I plan to replace a few parts of my 27” iMac as soon as the 1-year warranty is over. I‘ve seen the video of Snazzy Labs and some posts in this and other forums. Unfortunately my iMac does have the 128 GB PCI-SSD and a 2 TB HDD (Fusion Drive). Is there a possibility to replace only the HDD with a 1 TB SATA SSD and reconfigure it as a Fusion Drive with the PCI-SSD?...

Chosen Solution Hello, I am planning to get Ravpower 23000 mAh Power Bank. Link to the gadget - https://www.amazon.com/RAVPower-23000mAh… It has around 500 charge cycles.

Chosen Solution I have a Samsung Galaxy A50 that is working and responds when I do a force restart. However the screen flickers and stays black. How can I fix it? Going to need a screen - the AMOLED panel broke, but not the glass from the way you described it. Yeah; this is far more common then it used to be since the glass is now stronger then an AMOLED panel, so when it breaks from a drop the glass survives but not the phone....

Chosen Solution Samsung Model UA40C6900VF started switching on and off repeatedly. Can this be fixed? Have tried switching off an unplugging. @waverley142 this could be a bad power board (backlight circuitry) or a bad LED array. You will have to remove the back of your set and take a look at all the boards. Look for obviously damaged components like leaking capacitors etc. Post some images of all of your boards with your question....

I heard that maybe the motherboard is the issue. Once I go outside in the street, works again....
