Chosen Solution So I decided to buy a used 3rd gen thermostat. I got everything installed. I made sure I hooked everything up correctly as well… When the thermostat is set to heat though it seems like the thermostat doesn’t actually call for heat when in Gas and Forced air modes. I did change the heat source mode to electric and it did turn the blower on ( we have gas so still no heat was made) I also spent time on a support chat with nest for almost an hour trying to troubleshoot with them....

Chosen Solution Hello. I have searched these forums about this problem, but so far haven’t found a solution. Awhile ago my 2015 MacBook Air 11” trackpad started acting erratically. It would work (sort of) for a few minutes after opening the device, but then would just get stuck. An external mouse does work. I was convinced it was a swollen battery, so I ordered a new battery from iFixit and replaced it....

Chosen Solution I have a 2015 3DS XL that will freeze after I turn it on, especially if I am putting in a game or opening an app, and will delay turning off. When it first turns on, the only light that comes on is the blue power light, and sometimes only the black screens will be on. I have tried doing research into what the issue might be, but have found nothing....

Chosen Solution I’m trying to find this the “golden” / “copper” tape used on the backside of the lightning connector unit?

Thanks The flex board is made up of layers of polyamide which has a yellow/orange color as the method on how the copper traces are created is using photolithography....

Chosen Solution Is it possible to upgrade the motherboard? Maybe replace the internal USB ports with thunderbolt 3? And so on… Is it even possible? I have a lot of soldering equipment.. so that shouldn’t be a problem. Depending on your exact model you can replace the logic board with one that has a more powerful CPU and RAM. But you are limited to what the series offered MacBookAir6,2 Basically, a 1....

Chosen Solution Okay, so I’ve been having problems with my home button for a while. First, I could see it was getting loose and sticking down a bit- thought it was no bit deal. But a while ago, my home button fell out completely- at the park, no less, so I couldn’t really retrieve it- and I wasn’t sure what to do. The home button fell out but only had the metal backing at first, the gold colored and silver colored things (I’m thirteen, don’t blame me for not knowing the name) fell out as well- from my understanding, I think the home button or the metal backing held the two bits in place (I think?...

Chosen Solution When I removed my heatsink on my Mac, I see a black paper looking thing covering my CPU. My goal is to reapply the Mac’s thermal Paste. I am asking if I should remove the black thing or leave it on? you can take it off or leave it, but if you do take it of be sure to put it back on

Chosen Solution Need to replace the 2 speaker’s inside the big jawbone Hi @smokin6869 , Here’s the ifixit Jawbone Big Jambox Speaker Replacement guide. This will help you to gain access to the speakers where there should be information on the speaker itself as to the model number of the speaker or if not at least its impedance 4 Ohms or 8 Ohms etc and also will allow you to measure the dimensions of the speaker etc so that you can get suitable compatible replacements

Chosen Solution I can receive phone calls from the other number but when i try and ring them it goes straight to voicemail every time. Why? They’ve got your number blocked, or they’re immediately sending your call to voicemail when they see your number.

Chosen Solution Hi guys My Taptic Engine in my 6s has stopped working. Force touch doesn’t give any tactic feedback and vibration doesn’t work anymore. I took it to a 3rd party phone repair shop and they gave me a good price but they said I would need to update my phone from IOS 10.3.2 to IOS 11.3 or the new Taptic Engine would not work. Is this a thing? I don’t want to update my phone because apart from this issue it is running as smooth as ever, but I would love a working Taptic Engine again....

Chosen Solution When the phone gets heat up a bit the back panel starts loosen. How to stick the back panel well with the body again? I suggest buying a new adhesive, this website sells one pretty cheap and it’s easy to install.

Chosen Solution just got my tv and took it out the box and plug it in and this is the screen I get @jamescothran just for completion sake since I am sure you have it replaced by now. This is definitely a broken LCD screen. There is no fixing it and it will need to get replaced.

Chosen Solution Hi, I had to replace my screen on my phone after it got dropped, but now the three buttons at the bottom no longer work and I can’t think of a reason this has happen. Any ideas? Hi, have you glued the screen back down or is it still loose and just plugged in?

Chosen Solution My laptop won’t turn on. The Adapter is fine, the battery is fine. Its charging, the led for charging is solid white but theres no led light showing up for the power. I tried removing the battery and plug and pressing the button for 30seconds-1 min and plugging it back in but it still won’t work. Try unplugging the battery and turning it on with the battery removed. In some situations, the battery itself will prevent the computer from powering on....
