Chosen Solution I just purchased a NES classic and it’s not working right. It flickers on and off so much you can’t even play it. Any ideas on what may be causing this and how we might be able to fix it? Thank you. Edit: Whoops! I was talking about the actual NES. I didn’t realize this question was about the NES Classic. My bad! Sounds like the lockout chip is resetting the system every second....
Chosen Solution My motorola droid’s power button is stuck, which make it that I cant switch on my phone, how can I fix it myself? I’m not entirely sure if your question pertains to the plastic power button or the actual physical contact. In any case, you can use the Motorola Droid Motherboard Replacement guide to gain access to most of the internal components. From there on, you should be able to replace/fix your power button....
Chosen Solution Hello, I’ve recently got an official ifixit battery repacement kit for my MacBook Pro 15 retina mid 2012. On the product page it’s written: “New battery guaranteed at capacity greater than 8250 mAh.“ I am currently struggling to keep the mAh value at 7900 when full. Which is nowhere close to the guaranteed advertised capacity. What I’ve tried: Resetting the SMC. Various tries and small variations of: charging the mac to 100%, leaving it for a few more hours to charge at 100% then disconnecting the AC until the mac dies, leaving it overnight (and even in the morning for a few more hours to make sure it’s drained), charging it fully, a few more hours after it’s 100% I still kept it plugged in, then another full discharge, charging it again and using it normally....
Chosen Solution Hi, my Mac is water damaged and beyond repair so I am trying to buy a device so that I can attempt to read the data from the drive? It is a Samsung mz-jpv2560/oa4 12+16 pin drive and I am struggling to find a compatible caddy/enclosure to purchase in the UK? Will a universal one for SATA/IDE 3.5’’ drives work? I am really confused by it all! Thanks for any help...
Chosen Solution I have a Bose SoundLink Color, the USB charging port and the 3.5 mm jack are encased in this black piece of plastic, which does not seem extractable although it has two plastic pins visible from the other side. How do you suggest to proceed? @hyklamin that is correct. The replacement comes like that. Here is the bad part, those are really hard to find and you may need to find a broken Soundlink to harvest that connector from there....

Chosen Solution My Panasonic TH-L55eT5k has sound but no picture, backlight is good, I wish to know what is the problem? @simom first thing you want to try is to reset your TV. Unplug the TV for a few minutes, then plug it back in. Sometimes this clears any issue. You also want to check all of your TV’s inputs (HDMI, COmposite, Coax etc.) and see if the results are the same on all of those....

Chosen Solution 2002 Ford Escape. Hi beams are the only thing that work. Low beams don’t. I have changed bulbs and fuses, and switch. Is there a way to find the hi beams until I can figure out what’s wrong and fix it? So either the light switch is bad or you may have a damaged wire. I would start using a volt meter to see if your getting power from the switch first then if that’s okay start looking for a bad wire....
Chosen Solution My headphones are unable to plug into the headphone jack on the device. The headphones seem to be in working order, since I can use them on other devices. The jack seems loose and may no longer be fully connected to the device. Provided nothing is wrong with the headphones themselves, the headphone jack on the device may need be reseated or replaced. This would involve disassembling the device and checking the headphone jack....
Chosen Solution Hi y’all, Recently I’ve been running into issues with my 2018 MB Pro 13in, touchbar. Whenever I launch any video application (i.e. Skype, Zoom), after around <5 minutes my CPU would throttle down to either 0.4 or 1 Ghz. Zoom or Skype would freak out by saying that “your input device has changed”. Zoom says the same thing and an error message “Zoom has encountered an error and needs to be restarted”....
Chosen Solution I was recently weight lifting when I was putting my weight bar down on my bed it accidentally fell a few inches and hit my phone, now it has a crack on it and it formed a horizontal line across my screen, I thought I might only be a cosmetic issue but it won’t recognize my finger taps above the line it formed. Anything I can do to fix it?...

Chosen Solution The Bluetooth is not existing on the international edition of the Mijia qicycle. So how to change the software to the Chinese version with Bluetooth? Is there a manual way to connect the bike computer and upload a software update? I found one solution. Basically you connect with this adapter to the computer and change the os version to the version where bluetooth is enabled. The downside is that you probably lose the brake sensor functionality that turns off the motor when braking (this is new on the international version WITHOUT the mudguards and belt drive)....
Chosen Solution So I have an Xbox 360 that is jtag but I want to remove it and play online again, how can I do it? And no I have not been banned, nor have I tried going online on the xbox It’s usually way to technically complex, too risky and not economically worth it. Just buy another unmodified console.
Chosen Solution Hey, I know how to tighten the hinges on MacBook Pros but I’m not seeing many options when i tore this one apart. It looks like tiny rivets that hold the hinges together, But if you know anything about these, I would greatly appreciate the help.

Chosen Solution We were moving the tv and accidentally pushed on the screen and it immediately had visible lines. And black spots. But only originating where the palm pressed against the screen. Is this a Tcon issue or a damaged screen issue? Hi @acapell , You have a cracked screen. This cannot be repaired. The screen will have to be replaced (if you can find one that is) Here’s an image that shows where it occurred....

Chosen Solution I have a 2016 f150, lc2i LOC , a Rockville 4 channel amp. The amp will cut out when auto start/stop starts the engine again, will come back on a moment later. I thought it was a remote turn on wire issue, but using an isolated 12v battery inside the truck wired to the remote turn on and it still turned off. The lights on the amp dim when the engine turns back on, so I’m assuming the immediate drop in voltage triggers the amp to turn off....
