Chosen Solution I’ve had this speaker for about a year and had no problems until recently. Even though it has a full battery, the bass becomes very distorted before it powers off after being played for 5 minutes. If your JBL Flip 4 is making buzzing, crackling, or distorted noises, see the JBL Flip 4 Makes Crackling Noise problem page for possible problems and solutions. Considering the age of this speaker, there may be an issue with the woofer....

Chosen Solution I’m new to electronics and have made some simple projects using a LM7805. I’m using the following schematics: Here is the date sheet of LM7805: http://www.componentschip.com/details/ST… I don’t understand why this circuit works. Why doesn’t it short circuit? I thought electricity always takes the “easiest” path which in my opinion would be the following: Why does the electricity even bother going through the 7805 to begin with while it can just fill up the 0....

Chosen Solution The initial repair was a broken headphone jack. I tried several ways to remove the broken off jack. I ordered a replacement and used that to perform the repair. In the teardown I mistakenly tried to separate the glass from the digitizer. That resulted in the screen malfunctioning. I ordered a replacement on my dime. I have installed that without any trouble. The home button is not responding after the repair....

Chosen Solution I upgraded the CPU in my iMac to the i7-7700K and everything went pretty smoothly. I put it back together and tested to see if everything was working. I plugged it in and pressed the power button and the fan came on but the screen did not. I double checked that all the cables were plugged in and looked things over. When I put it back together the second time and plugged it in only the 1st diagnostic led turned on and nothing else....

Chosen Solution The audio on the headphones fail to work completely. The audio may be cutting in and out, only working on one side of the headphones. There might be dirt build up or water damage in the audio jack, but try a new pair of headphones to see if the headphones are the problem. If they are not the problem because they work fine for your other devices then replace the audio jack in your device....

Chosen Solution I just replaced my battery with an ifxit battery and now it is in a reboot loop stuck at around 5%. What can I do about it? Let your battery gets enough charge. First drain all the power in ur battery and charger it for 1 hr with the inbox adapter. Don’t use iPad’s or 12W Adapter. Then your phone will be doing fine. Don’t Panic.

Chosen Solution hey I have a A3 that is less then a year old. I have noticed that the battery over the past couple of weeks has not been keeping a strong charged like it did when I first got it. I know that I haven’t been using it as much as I was before (because it cut off), so I know that its not due to over use. I haven’t down loaded any thing that would drain the battery (couple of card games) ....

Chosen Solution Once all the wheels have been placed, they are not balancing properly and one is unable to touch the ground. How can I fix this? If the wheels are not all touching the ground, check if the wheels have been properly installed. The front wheels should have arrows on them that both point up, and the back wheels brakes should flip downward. If one of the wheels is not properly installed, just press the silver pin and pull the wheel to remove it, and install it the correct way....

Chosen Solution Hi community first post here! I have recently bought an Iphone 8 and I had a smart battery case for my Iphone 6s before. I read everywhere that this case works with iphone 8 even though apple says it doesn’t support it. When I connect it to my phone it doesn’t work, doesn’t even charges it’s like nothing’s there. DO anyone has any experience with this? Since I bought second hand do you think it might have something to do with some parts being replaced?...
