Chosen Solution My Dell Studio laptop fell to the floor while it was on. It still works great, but makes a noise when I start to close it. So I don’t close it! I turn it on and off, but don’t close it. The only physical damage appears to that the left-side hinge, or pivot, is not firm, and the metal cover is slightly bent. Question: Can I go ahead and close the laptop completely, or might that cause some further damage internally, making it inoperable?...

Chosen Solution I can’t find a guide on this site specifically for the Galaxy A10e. Is it ok to follow the guides, specifically the screen replacement guide, for the very similar Galaxy A10? Youtube can be a great thing as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7Ui_KZf… Good luck! Hi Kenneth, I just had the opportunity to repair the charging port on an A10e, so published a guide for that. In terms of internal layout, the A10e is nearly identical to the A10; the only important difference is that the motherboard cover is in two pieces on this phone that both need to be removed, as opposed to the single piece on the A10....

Chosen Solution So I recently purchased and installed a replacement battery for my Samsung Galaxy s8 plus. My battery health was roughly 80% and I thought I’d go ahead and get a new one two years after buying the phone. The replacement battery that I just installed, and followed the instructions on charging and discharging, shows way less mAh then the two year old battery I just replaced! Fairly disappointed, what should I do?...

Chosen Solution I think I may have a broken 3.5 mm port headphone-side. If the plug is fully inserted and twisted a bit, the audio plays quiet in both speakers, but one channel is significantly harder to hear. If the plug is pulled out just a bit, but still holding in tight, it works like new. Any help? Beats Support said $100 for replacement of these 6 year old headphones [BTW, these are green Beats Solo HDs (Serial Number J4112)]....

Chosen Solution My phone won’t charge past 1% after finishing the battery replacement. I carefully made sure all connectors were not bend and snapped back into place firmly and evenly including the battery connector. I have tried leaving it plugged in overnight as well as letting it discharge completely and then charging again. Did I get a bad replacement battery or is something else wrong? This is obviously very frustrating as my phone is now out of commission unless it is plugged in!...

Chosen Solution After disassembling and replacing the left joystick of the xbox series controller, both triggers are now constantly fully pressed in according to software and the xbox console. However there is no mechanical difference in the triggers and their magnets. The joysticks works perfectly, and it appears that the triggers are the only issue. The triggers worked fine before disassembly and repairing the joysticks. Any help would be appreciated :(...

Chosen Solution How do I can fix calling microphone of Samsung Galaxy A20? Has it sustained damage? Dropped? Liquid damage? Has it been opened up? Had a new screen? Sorry but we need to figure out if anything happened to it before the issue. The microphone is part of the charging port. They aren’t expensive so you could always try a new one.

Chosen Solution Can a key that broke off be replaced on a Casio CTK-593? Hi Here are some links to suppliers that may be able to help with the replacement part(s). supplier 1, supplier 2 If the broken key is a white key then it may be difficult to find a replacement unless the second supplier listed has them as the first supplier states that they’re a discontinued item and searching for the Casio part number (91036999497) gives no results for suppliers that have stock I cannot find a service manual which would make replacing them easier, so you just may have to carefully open the keyboard and check how the keys are installed....
