@evan It looks like all my comments in meta are immediately deleted. I also am no longer able to create new questions in...

My friend has 2 Galaxy S5 phones. One is a G900A and the other a G900T. He replaced the USB Charge port on both. On a GS5,...

I would suggest backing up your files and performing a manual clean install. You can use disk utility to partition the new Samsung to journaled instead of APFS and then installing high sierra. If you upgrade, stubbornly OS X will be converted to APFS, but on a manual clean install the conversion does not occur.

Due to planned obsolescence, Apple no longer supports the iPad mini 1st gen. There is no way to update beyond iOS 9.x. Either switch to Android with OS 5 or later (on Android, apps don't care what version OS have as long as it is newer than 4.4.4), or buy a new iPad / iPad mini, and make sure its the latest because you have only a certain set of iOS updates you are allowed.

Download smart switch on your computer and see if that will let you backup your photos. The problem is if it is set to modem mode, and you can touch the screen, there may be no way to change it to file mode.

From Kenmore elite washing Machine Code error CL, control locked?: This error code most likely indicates that the CONTROL LOCK has been activated. To deactivate the control lock press and hold the drain and spin button for 5 seconds. Or you can try to reset it by unplugging your machine, and plug it back in after 5-10 min.

If your old one isn't bad, and you open your phone up, you do lose the water resistance. Otherwise, if you were going to open up your phone anyway, go for it. Just be sure on the quality of the battery. It could simply be labelled as higher capacity but actually have a lower capacity.

Here is a direct download of old iTunes directly from Apple. What you want to do is find an old version around 9 or 10-ish. Right-click the installer, and select compatibility mode for Windows 7. Install using Compatibility mode. Right-Click the iTunes icon and also set that to run with Compatibility mode for Windows 7. Here is a little about the history of the device. Original firmware 1.0 had nothing but basic functionality. The 5 apps such as calculator was a package add-on of $25. The next firmware update was another $10. The 3rd and last charged firmware update was $10, and included the $25 5-app package. I think if you have never purchased those, you can reflash an old firmware, but it will not have the 5-app package.

@masonta05 Do not ask or follow any medical tips on ifixit.com. See a real doctor. iFixit.com is for devices, not the human body. Loss of vision is nothing you want to to ask around on the Internet about. A real specialist can tell the difference between glaucoma, sepsis, cataracts, and other dangerous diseases from simple food poisoning.

You can't do much now. You've opened the drive, so dust and other particles are now on the platter and will cause further damage to your data. Employees manufacturing hard drives wear equivalents to space suits in a hard drive factory in clean rooms to prevent any particle contamination in the drives. The original clicking was due to difficulty reading the platters. Now it would have been possible to recover the data because it was minor errors and remap around the errors. The damage caused by dust and other particles is much larger, and when it catches under the head while the drive spins, it will scrape more data off the drive. You will now need an expensive technician to forensically recover your data, or call your drive a total loss.

Try dialing *#*#7378423#*#* in the emergency call dialer, a menu should pop up then select Customization settings > Reset Customization and confirm.

To download apps you need to change the phones date back a few years to before the time the certificates expired.
