Chosen Solution My galaxy J5 fell from the table and now a little more than half the screen is black. There are no cracks though, and my phone is still working. I can pull the notification bar down a little, for example, and I get WhatsApp notifications. Do I have to change the screen? Or perhaps it’s a connection problem? I’m really desperate, so any help would be really appreciated....
Chosen Solution I am able to light pilot in ovens but they wont stay lit Thermocouples If the appliance has a thermocouple, the problem may be a faulty thermocouple. The thermocouple, which operates as a safety device, turns the gas supply off when the pilot light goes out. It consists of a heat sensor connected to a solenoid; when the sensor is not heated by the pilot flame, the solenoid closes the gas supply line....

Chosen Solution Hi all, I’ve got a Retina Macbook (A1502) that seems to be totally dead after plugging in a USB to charge my phone. As soon as I plugged the USB cable into the port, it abruptly shut off and now won’t turn on at all. I’ve tried disconnecting/reconnecting the battery, letting it sit for a week to totally drain the battery, multiple chargers, SMC reset etc. I took it to the Genius Bar and was told this was a known issue but that it would cost 500$ to replace the logic board as I’m out of warranty....
Chosen Solution I have an old Dell Inspiron 1720, still working, just isincredibly slow. I’ve backed up everything that I had on it, haven’t been actively using it for several years. Is it possible to semi-rebuild the laptop with new parts that will make it run better/more efficiently/less loudly? (fan used to go constantly even after pulling it apart and cleaning it) You haven’t given any of your current specifications but the RAM can be upgraded to 4GB DDR2 PC2-6400 (2x2GB - a pair is better than one 4GB) and the SATA hard drive to an SSD....
Chosen Solution I have a Iphone 4 CDMA that the power/lock button isnt responding. However I have a IPhone 4 GSM and I would like to know if I can take the button from the GSM and put it in the CDMA. No. The flex cables are different. But if the button is not responding because the click is no longer happening. The click portion can be transferred. When working on the power button it is best to remove the front screen to protect the flex cables, especially the LCD flex cable from damage....

Chosen Solution I have a Sanyo clt2054 -04 it powers on then 10 seconds later picture goes blank and everything else works and sound shanechitwood40 once the picture turns dark (in a darkened room) shine a flashlight at an angle against the screen. See if you can make out shapes etc. If so, it is your backlight that is failing. If it does not, you want to remove the back of your TV and take a look at the main board....
Chosen Solution When i press the power button my computer won’t turn on and even when the computer is plugged in, it still wont start. If your computer isn’t turning on, it could be that your battery or charger is deficient. To determine if the charger is deficient, try plugging it in. When you do, check if the charging indicator on the front of the laptop lights up. If it does not, make sure the charging cable is receiving power: try plugging it in to a different outlet....
Chosen Solution My laptop displays a black screen when switched on. However, there is a display when connected to an external monitor. Is it a display problem entirely? How much is the charge to replace display? There is no external damage to the display screen though. Hi @mohua , With the laptop on and a display showing on the external monitor, shine a torch at an angle close to the laptop screen to check if you can “see” an image at all....
Chosen Solution Hello, today my M9 was going crazy while scrolling throgh Instagram and after I restarted my device it was doing the same thing, so I installed a touch screen tester and I saw that I was having a little crack right by the volume down button in the digitizer. I’ve dropped my phone a couple of month ago, but it was with a case and a tempered glass screen protector on it....
Chosen Solution Last night before leaving the office, I sprayed a regular glass cleaner over my MacBook and used it to clean the screen. I dried it off (almost), and left the office with my MacBook. This morning as I take it out of my bag and power it on, I see this weird abstract shape on my display, from the corner looking a bit scratched. I tried to understand whether it’s over the screen, but no, it definitely is on the inside....
Chosen Solution “my replacement battery is causing my phone to shut down when it gets bellow 45% and wont turn back on till charged up to 100%. Anyone else having trouble with these batteries?” If you are having trouble with a new iFixit battery, then you should reach out to iFixit Support. They should replace your battery under warranty. I suspect that, in general, replacement battery quality has dropped a bit lately due to the extremely high demand caused by Apple’s disclosure that they were throttling performance....
Chosen Solution Any idea how to loosen the lugs? Hi Brian, I’m not an expert on golf carts by any means, but I have been working on cars for over 40 years so I do have a bit of experience under my belt. I’m going to assume there’s no braking system for that wheel that you can make use of, since I’m guessing you’d have used that if there was. So the problem is, how to keep the wheel from rotating while you’re trying to loosen the lug nuts, right?...
Chosen Solution I have a bad habit of dropping my phone in between my legs. This morning, I did that and I was blessed enough to have my legs spread apart just enough for my phone to fall through. Now when I try to use it, the screen flickers from normal to green tintish every half second and stops responding to touch after awhile until I lock it and unlock it again....
Chosen Solution My touch screen doesn’t work I have tried a force reboot but it still doesn’t work I need help!! sounds like a bad digitizer consider replacing or invest that money towards a newer iphone Is this after a screen replacement the touch didn’t work, or did it just stop working the original screen? If it just stopped working, then you will probably need a screen replacement. Replace the screen....

Chosen Solution I was having trouble installing Windows 10 onto a hard drive that I was going to use with my robotics team’s Dell Desktop. I noticed in the boot settings that the boot mode was set to Legacy and I figured in the moment that the Legacy boot mode was preventing me from installing Windows 10 successfully. Right after setting the boot mode to UEFI the computer shut down completely....
Chosen Solution After replacing the LCD and Touch screen in a Wii U gamepad I do not have any video or backlight in the screen. The previuos screen was broken but as well not showing any image. Does any one has some schematics to check fuses or any other component in the gamepad’s motherboard. I am suspecting as well, like any other Nintendo’s console that the bluetooth/wifi card could be damage and circuit will not turn on the LCD, but I am getting response from touch screen and corresponding sounds....
