Chosen Solution For the past week or so I’ve been switching out batteries in and out of iPhone 6’s to test whether or not the phone itself is functional. But I was wondering if it was safe to label the battery with a sharpie or something to keep track of the date or times I’ve used the battery over long periods. Yes, a sharpie is fine to write on a battery with....
Chosen Solution How do I change the language from Japanese’s back to English? thanks Hit the Settings (Gear Icon). Find “Languages and Input”. I think in Japanese its “言語と入力”. This has a “A” on a Samsung Device, or on standard Google Android, its a “Globe” like icon. Once you tap it, it should be the first option. Change and rearrange languages you wish. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/967662…
Chosen Solution I recently found my old HP Pavilion DV7-6b55dx that I had misplaced. I proceeded to plug it in and turn it on. While it was starting up, I noticed that half of the keyboard was pulled all the way up. I remembered that I had previously been working on the keyboard. Well I made the mistake of taking the keyboard off while the computer was still plugged in and turned on....

Chosen Solution If I replace the logic board will the carrier(att) still recognize the phone? Is the SIM card the part that activates the phone to a carrier? It is the logic board that is “paired” or “locked” to the carrier, unless the logic board was part of a phone that was initially unlocked. If you plan on replacing the logic board, you need to find one that is either unlocked or locked to your carrier otherwise it will not recognize your SIM card....
Chosen Solution I purchased a 1.66 Core Duo mini early last year, ran sata out the side, and upgraded to a T7200 processor. Over the past month, I got a couple of lockups under load (importing CDs), and once a GSOD. Last week, I woke up to find my mini completely dead. The power light was still on, the hard drive was still spinning, but nothing going on. I powered it off, and back on, and it still sat silent....
Chosen Solution Had Apple fix a bunch of laptops for me One of them had they keyboard replaced but is now sporting the up to date keyboard layout so the F keys are now in the wrong place Is there an easy way to re-assign the keys? The System (Snow Leopard) was installed with the previous keyboard so presumably mapped the keys during installation? (I’m just guessing here) I can’t see anywhere in the keyboard or expose system prefs to reassign the volume keys from F3/4/5 to further up the keyboard Any advice thankfully received I could of course physically remove the keys and replace them in the ‘correct’ place for the current system setup but is there an easier way?...

As soon as the magsafe is disconnected everything lags including the cursor. I have tried the SMC reset, etc. but no change. I did have an issue with my battery indicator but I have since replaced it and it was ok. Any ideas? Thanks Jeff - No doubt you have a very odd problem here....
Chosen Solution I have a Nokia Lumia 1020 GB 32GB which is the usual standard in many countries except that 64GB is sold in certain EU countries. Is there a way if I can upgrade the memory from 32GB to 64GB rather than buying a new phone. Any input would be appreciated. thanks anjinsan, not unless you can a. get your hands on the memory IC’s and b. have a reball station as well as the proper stencils and solder balls....
Chosen Solution I’m a bit at a loss here. I’m no expert but replacing the screen shouldn’t have this effect. I have taken the phone apart and checked the LCD connection about a hundred times, and it all ends up the same: I plug in the phone (battery was dead when I did the screen replacement) and the Motorola splash screen comes up, then goes away, then comes back, then goes away, indefinitely until I unplug it....
Chosen Solution The “Enter key” on my Sony VAIO PCG-3E2L is responded when I pressed it. All other keys are working properly. Do I have to replace the whole keyboard pad?

Close all one by one and restart your device. If it is still not working then the enter key is broken....

Chosen Solution Hi All, I am relatively new to the iPhone repair scene and was wondering whether you would be happy to share some inside knowledge on a couple of questions I have. Firstly, when purchasing screens, I have read a lot around after market LCD’s. Do you find that manufacturers such as Alibaba are a good source for replacements? I know people prefer to use refurbished legitimate ones, but I do not have that resource available....
Chosen Solution I have an iPod classic 120g that was dropped. I have synced it, and it syncs fine. When I plug in my headphones, I can hear the click wheel scrolling through the list of options. I can select the first one(music) and play through the list alphabetically. Visually, the corner it was dropped on has a small nick but hardly noticeable; the screen looks good and not even scratched....
Chosen Solution I’ve been repairing iPad screens for a while now. I’ve been using a hot air gun. I was told that a hot plate is the way to go and makes removing the screen that much easier and quicker. Do you guys think this is true? Is it worth the investment to buy one? What temperature do you set it at? Do you heat both sides? And how long do you leave it on for?...
