Chosen Solution It is a FALD with 150 zone array. Which component would be responsible for this, the led driver, the power module or the main controller? TV is a 2015 65" curved screen Samsung UN65JS9500FXZ with full array local dimming (fald) backlighting, which is divided into 150 local dimming zones across the screen. Each zone dims independantly according to picture brightness info applied to its portion of the screen. Black zones switch to zero LED light output....

Chosen Solution I have a 13” 2-port Macbook pro (non-touchbar) where one of the USB-C ports is unreliable. Sometimes I can connect an external screen to it, sometimes a simple flash drive works. Other times it doesn’t. Sometimes it helps if I rotate the USB-cable. Today I actually successfully made it charge through that port - I had previously given up on that… The other port seems to be working just fine, however I do recall once or twice where I had to take the plug out and try it again....

Chosen Solution Hi, Excuse my english, i’m a french guy. After a shock on top, my PS4 Slim is keeping ejecting disc when this one was out. I try to dissassemble my ps4 to see what happened, if it was something broken inside. I saw nothing. So when the disc is out, the PS4 make the noise of ejecting a disc, maybe 3 times. And it stops. Then, i can’t insert a disc....

Chosen Solution Have two Apple TVs with the same problem, i can get them into recovery and DFU mode but I get a Error 4 when trying to restore them. Any help would be awesome. OMG I opened both and checked for shorts and then by chance ground one of the SMD resistors near the nand and it reset and let me recover the two Apple Tvs.

We might have an expert on this forum that can assist you with your game.

Chosen Solution Hey Guys, I have a bit of a problem with my 2009 27” iMac. It has been shutting down halfway through botting up. I then booted into recovery mode and was able to do a clean OS install on the iMac then booted up no problem. Then as I use it, the iMac just freezes (but the mouse still works) and I won’t be able to do anything until I force reboot it....

Chosen Solution Hey guys so i replaced the screen with an ifixit led kit and everything went smoothly. Shes is working like a charm and phone looks so nice. I’ve replaced the screens on my phones (literally my 6, 6s, 7 xr, and now my 11 pro max) build and repair computers and different electronics over the years. Followed steps exactly as the best I could find. But i noticed that after replacing the screen (with the LED not the oled kit) my battery is dying much much faster than usual....

Chosen Solution I ordered a battery from IFIXIT for a Oral B V1 toothbrush, measurements were exact, they stated it would come with slightly offset terminal strips to clarify negative post and neede to be offset for installation. So how is it they send a battery with inline strips and no clarification of positive and negative ends? Very poor representation of the product, not what was shown on their site at all....

Chosen Solution Fan won’t stop spinning, battery won’t show up in status bar, when I try to turn it on in energy saver, it uncheck itself. When I use CoconutBattery, it shows: Full Charge Capacity is : NaNDesign Capacity is : NaNPower adapter: Not connected If I disconnect the power, the laptop will shut off You need a new battery as the sensor unit within the battery is bad and likely the battery is in need of replacing anyways because of age....

Chosen Solution Hi guys, Whenever I receive a phone call from anyone, the callers are hearing a noisy echo of their voice as they speak. I tried many things to troubleshoot this issue as below: Hard reset the phone. Put the phone into the SAFE MODE. Check all the call settings searching for any relevant option, like: Noise reduction. Note that I’m using Samsung S6 Edge+, with Android Marshmallow. But I noticed something which is very weird, when I’m on an IM call, I don’t face this issue, like when I’m calling someone in Facebook Messenger, or Viber....

Chosen Solution All other features of the camera seem to be operating just fine. Shutter release button doesn’t appear damaged, but will not respond to being pushed to take a photo. I was able to take ONE photo when applying DEEP pressure to the button, but don’t want to cause further damage. Help!! There are several reasons that make shutter button doesn’t work. first of them .. You need to check if your lens is selected to AF not MF....

Chosen Solution I dropped Apple tv 4K Siri remote, glass portion of remote is cracked like a web. Wondering if there is any information on repairing the glass with a replacement glass or other material without buying a new or used remote? Sadly its time for a new remote. Apple doesn’t offer any parts and I haven’t found any online either.

Chosen Solution is this fixable They do bumper assemblies available in parts for above controller. With some time a repair would be possible. Issue is I dont have a xbox anymore otherwise I’d walk you through it. Best advice is keep your phone with you and tale pictures everytime you pull out a different part just ao you can put everything back together wothout difficulty. https://youtu.be/Vx1xAhaYdKA for a decent teardown. Here’s link for part....

Chosen Solution I broke the rear glass on my iphone 8. It looks really hard to scrape off the glass and replace that part, so I was wondering if I can replace the entire back of the phone? I could just take out all the parts and transfer them, but the wireless charging coil looks like it’s near-impossible to remove successfully. Does anyone know where I can purchase a rear housing including the wireless charging coil?...

Chosen Solution My current lcd backlight broke, it is cheaper to buy a 2011 lcd on eBay, but I want to make sure that this works before I buy it. Well it isn’t that simple, Apple altered the mounting frame between the systems so you will need to remove the raw LCD panel from it. If we look at the panel its self we can see its not the same 2010: LM215WF3 (SD)(A1) or LM215WF3 (SD)(B1) where we have LM215WF3 (SD)(C2) for the 2011 system....

Chosen Solution Has anyone had success with removal of IR-blocking filter from iPhone 4S or 5 / 5S? I want to use the camera for imagery in the near-IR for high-contrast vegetation photography. Sorry, no the camera unit is sealed and can’t be disassembled. I have taken the iPhone 5 camera apart and removed the IR filter (I purchased two additional cameras as you can pick them up super cheap $2)....

Chosen Solution Me and a few colleagues of mine are looking through the electrical components throughout the Nintendo Switch Joycons. Can someone guide us through how they work and willing to chat and help? Which components specifically do you want to know about? If you haven’t looked at the Nintendo Switch Teardown yet, I would strongly recommend it. There is a bunch of information on the joycons in there as well....

Chosen Solution Someone came to me with a Wacom Companion 2 Graphics tablet with a number of issues and I’ve been able to repair all but one. The tablet has an overheating issue (boots, runs for about an hour and then just shuts off), and I’ve noticed one of the fans doesn’t turn for more than a couple seconds after boot. I would like to replace this fan, but it seems parts for this device are rarer than finding a Yeti riding a Unicorn at the North Pole....

Chosen Solution Would a rear end out of a 2002 Chevy suburban fit into a 2003 Chevy Tahoe, both are four-wheel-drive Would a rear end out of a 2002 Chevy suburban fit into a 2003 Chevy Tahoe, both are four-wheel-drive I am not 100% sure but most likely producers tend to keep the same frame for a couple of yours until they make changes to the body style in something like the 2000s this is especially correct I would definitely do some more digging if I were you but most likely yes unless they changed the body style of the car during those years
