iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi: iPad stuck in an endless loop

Sun, 20 Jun 2021 09:39:19 -0700

So I left my iPad at home and when I got back it was out of battery. I plug it in and instead of it powering up and charging like normal it is stuck on the white screen with the apple logo and play the sound it makes when you start charging over and over again in 3-5 second intervals. I have tried hard resetting by holding the sleep/wake button and the home button but it will just power itself on again and continue the loop. I can not use iTunes to reset the device because I need to enter my password. What else can I do?

iPad 2 Wi-Fi EMC 2415: My touchscreen is turning crazy after a Front Panel Replacement

Fri, 06 Sep 2019 07:39:31 -0700

Hi All,

I replace The Front Panel of my iPad 2, following the Ifixit Guide.

All is going fine, and I put the new one without any problem.

That's only the day after that I note an erratic behaviour of my new touchscreen. The iPad seems to be under control, and turns crazy (lauching app, writing text, etc.) like someone touch the screen randomly very quickly...

It does it some time to time, and after, it works almost fine, like nothing happens...

I don't know what to do...

I thought about a Touchscreen problem ? What do U think ?

Thanks a lot ! ^^

Microsoft Surface: Fixing Phantom Touch Issue?

Tue, 30 Aug 2022 13:46:37 -0700

My problem:

2-3 stripes of the screen do not pick up touch input. Not only that, but they also freak out and receive phantom inputs, making it impossible to work with the thing without disabling the touchscreen.

Apparently, some part associated with the touch input is broken. But which one is it?

I could either replace the screen, together with the digitizer (Microsoft Surface RT (1st Gen) Screen), or I could replace what is called the Digitizer Board.([bağlı ürün eksik veya kapalı: IF263-003])

Do you guys have any experience with this? Which part causes the trouble? I have yet to find the answer on the Internet. I see people with the same issue though.

iVIEW-754TPC: Forgot Password/Maunual Reset not working

Thu, 30 Jun 2022 18:41:48 -0700

Hi I have the Iview Tablet 754TPCII and I have forgotten my password. I've watched all sorts of tutorials and videos on how to hard reset it manually but for some reason, a reset menu won't pop up. I was given these instructions:

1. Turn off tablet

2.Press and hold Back button and Power button at the same time until android character appears

3.Release power button and a Chinese menu will appear

But for some reason, even after following these steps, the menu never shows. it just goes from the "I view" screen to the "android" screen then to the powered on lock screen. Please help!! :-(

iPad Air Wi-Fi: iPad Air Touchscreen is not responding at all

Tue, 01 Oct 2019 01:36:04 -0700

I have bought an defectiv ipad Air 32 GB.

The Digitizer of the device does not responding at all.

I have already done mutliple Hard resets and flashed the newest Firmware.

But nothing changes.

The iPad has no scratches, no dents, the Glas is not broken or anything else, no water damage, everything original Parts.

The iPad looks like brand new.

So, before i am trying to change the digitizer, is there any possible solution for my problem?

Is it possible, that the logicboard has a problem? If yes, which part of the logicboard is responsible for the Digitizer?

I have have changed the digitizer against a new one, but it won't work also

iPad 2 GSM: My iPad's screen has wierd colors.

Sat, 12 Jan 2019 08:10:34 -0700

Okay so my iPad was dropped on the floor, the screen went black but when I press the lock button it showed a little light, I found a solution here, I smacked the iPad and the screen turned on again, but the screen has wierd colours like orange - red - green - blue greeny and I tried to search here for solutions but I didn't find any. So can I fix it with smacking again or do I have to go and change the LCD or what? And thanks.

Hey there, I’m trying to figure out where to source quality trusted lcd for this Ipad. From what I’ve gathered Ifixit and InjuredGadget a two such options. However one is quite high in the price and the other is out of stock, is there anywhere else trusted among the folks here for quality parts?

Microsoft Surface Pro 4: Surface not turning on - burned diodes

Tue, 10 Aug 2021 12:03:11 -0700

Hi dear ifixit users!

I have an Problem with my Surface. It's not turning on anymore after someone changed the screen on it. I quickly dissasembled it and spotted these 3 diodes that looked burned (I circled them in for you too):

Now my questions is can anyone tell me which diodes these are? I want to try to replace these 3 to see if it works again. It's currently not even turning on even with the charger plugged in. The Charger lights up tho. Do you guys think this might be the solution that fixes it? Or might be there something that is also broken that doesnt let the surface start?

Thanks in advance
