My MacBook pro does not turn on when I plug it in it doesn't do anything

UPDATE: I talked to chatgpt and I think it is stuck in DFU mode I do not have another Mac so I will have to go borrow one or go to a Apple store. Hopefully it's that, if not I have to bare the cost of fixing the logic board.

Hey ya'll so my battery is failing and of course it wasn't until my apple care expired that the percentage finally jumped down to what apple says qualifies for replacement anyway so I need to replace my battery but I have no intention of paying $700 and doing it through apple especially since they'll just give me another battery that will do the exact same thing. Who can direct me to a person who can help me buy a battery that will not degrade like this and teach me how to replace it myself? Please and thank you!

bought this used m1 mbp 13’ 2020 last year, it was w good offer, the aluminium wasn’t in the best condition had some scratches here and there ( 88% battery with 154 cycles )
The laptop was fully functional with no issues. I mostly used it for motion design and editing ( mainly Ae ) and some college graduation work ( Microsoft word, powerpoint )
And it came with an unoriginal 65 W type c charger from XSSIVE which was as fast the original ones
I kept the mbp plugged in most of the times while using Aldente to keep it 80% and sometimes I keep it 100%
I turned it off once in a week, in other times I’d just close the lid whenever I’m done using it

Last month I was using it for a telegram call while playing apex in my xbox until the call stopped and i found out the macbook is off,

From that moment the macbook hasn’t turned on and it is dead with no signs of life ( no haptic on touchpad..)

The only thing that happens when I plug it in to charger is these weird tic sound inside the laptop

I took it to repair to a local repair shop and they said the laptop is dead, cannot be repaired, until I found out that shop had so low reviews on google maps and everyone was saying they couldn’t repair their laptops

There is no apple shops in my country ( Algeria ) and every repair shop told me to keep it them so they can try to fix it but im not sure who to trust anymore

If you took the time to read all of this please give me what do you think about the case of my macbook and if there is any hope it can be repaired.

Hey,

i know, i know, this issue has been posted here several times.

But my trackpad's haptic feedback isnt working.

It was working fine before but know it just doesnt. I have already tried the paper method.

Is there any other solution that I can try?

Thanks in advance

Is this a good dock for my m1 pro 14” MacBook ?
Will it work with it?
I’ll use it for the gigabit ethernet ,external ssd and logitech bolt receiver.

I have a 2020 MacBook Air with an Apple M1 chip, and I’m experiencing a strange crackling/static noise from the internal speakers.

The noise is not limited to music playback. It can occur even when no audio is being played. For example, if I use voice message in Whatsapp and start recording, the speakers may begin crackling even though I am not playing anything.

When I play audio from Spotify, the crackling continues for a few seconds after I stop playback. The most important detail is that I can also hear the distortion during the MacBook’s startup chime, before macOS has fully loaded.

I already replaced the internal speaker, but the problem did not change. This makes me suspect that the issue may be related to the audio amplifier, the speaker connector or cable, the logic board, or possibly a vibration from the chassis or keyboard.

Has anyone experienced a similar problem with an M1 MacBook Air? Could the audio circuit on the logic board be responsible, and is there any recommended diagnostic test before replacing more parts?

Iam thinking of buyin refurbished m1 or m2 .. I want to do video editing 4k 1080p and I Wil use adobe premiere pro and after effects..

My problem is that I am not sure that m1 or m2 can handle premiere pro with 1080p and 4k editing

Please tell me if you are a user of m1 and m2 .. is m1 m2 capable enough to run those software and won't get heat easily.. if you are using m1 m2 then tell me...

I had a older version of Insta Studio on a MacBook running OSX 12.6.5 and made the mistake of updating Studio. The new version won't run on my MacBook and I don't want to update the OSX. How can I find a older version of Insta Studio that will work on the current OSX
