LG Television: Why does everything have a blue tint?

Sun, 08 Dec 2024 19:40:08 -0700

I have had my LG 43UF640V 43” smart TV for 2 years and over time, the picture has become more and more tinted. Everything looks a blueish purple.

This problem occurs all the time, with my sky box, DVD player and Netflix and YouTube apps on the smart tv.

I have tried adjusting all the picture settings. I have turned the picture temperature all the way to warm and even this doesn’t help lessen the blue tint. I’ve tried everything.

What might be causing the blueish purple tint?

Any help much appreciated,

Thanks.

iPhone 5: NANDJ_ Find flash media and keep out ERROR FIX!

Thu, 26 Oct 2017 17:18:20 -0700

If you are ever messing around with your iPhone 5 and put it back together, you may come across the "cannot find flash media" or "FIND flash media and keep out" error —and this will not let you boot properly. It gives you the red screen of death, but it can also just give you the error code and then restart or just show the Apple logo and then restart.

I found the fix, finally. I believe I am the first to find this, and it is relatively simple to fix. This is probably my first post on the internet that can actually help a majority of people that I've seen with this error and no fix for it yet. So from what I've experienced it's due to your front camera sensor assembly connector being damaged. The connectors on these things are extremely fragile and the connector seems to bow like a banana fairly easy.

So here is a way to try to narrow down the problem. Hook up only the LCD/Digitizer connector only, and "hard reset your phone" and see if it starts back up. If it does, then you've found out that it's for sure the front camera connector.

There are 2 parts to this 3rd connector. The Proximity SENSOR and the FRONT CAMERA are soldered together like an assembly. I highly recommend purchasing the assembly (front camera and proximity sensor) and not just the front camera flex cable, as it is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to install. And I mean DIFFICULT.

Nokia 6303: How do I reset the security code for a Nokia 6303?

Fri, 17 May 2019 01:30:49 -0700

Hi, I changed the security code of my Nokia 6303, but I was really tired so I forgot it.

I'm not trying to unlock the pin or simlock code, but the code you can set to unlock the keyboard. I have a USB-cable and I've connected the phone to my Mac via Bluetooth. If needed, I also have a windows computer available, but the phone hasn't been connected to it yet, neither with bluetooth nor the USB.

Please help me out! Thanks.

Sat, 02 Nov 2024 09:29:47 -0700

My dryer showed Error code F01. I called professional who said I needed to replace the control board, but the repair estimate was $461! Can I replace the control board myself? If so, how? The part is # W10174745 for Kenmore H3 electric dryer. Apparently it is a Whirlpool part made for a Kenmore dryer.

Thanks, Pat

So I dropped my phone in the water yesterday for a brief second. When I picked it up and inspected it everything works fine except for the sound. I can't hear anything unless I have the headphones in. When I try to just put the volume up it states the headphone volume went up even when there isn't headphones connected.

iPhone 6: iPhone 6 rear camera and flash not working

Sun, 20 Dec 2020 01:59:55 -0700

Hi all!

I dropped my phone and replaced the screen. Everything was working fine after the replacement of the screen.

I tried to open the camera app and the only thing I can see is a black screen with the record button etc.

Also when I tried to switch the flashlight on, nothing happened.

The flashlight and camera are 2 different parts, but does the one not work if one is broken?

Hope someone could help me to solve this problem. Thanks in advance!
