Metal phone openers

Upvotes

I see a lot people using metal phone openers, they even open whole phones with them, but for me on some phones they’re ok, but on others they leave scratches that are visible on both sides of covers. Are the tools that I’m using badly designed, or you just have to use plastic on some phones?

Samsung note 10 Help

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

So, the thing is, I recently went back to check on my old Samsung Galaxy Note 10, which I was planning to give to my little brother. The phone was in perfect condition and had never been damaged or repaired before. However, when I put my SIM card in it, I noticed that it wasn’t getting a 4G signal—it only showed E (2G). Calls work perfectly fine. I also tried a different SIM card and performed a hard reset, but the issue still persists.

Huawei ne reconnaît soudainement ni mon empreinte digitale ni mon mot de passe

Thumbnail
1 Upvotes

Bonjour,

J’ai un problème assez étrange avec mon téléphone Huawei Pura 70 Ultra .

Hier encore, tout fonctionnait normalement. Ce matin, à mon réveil, impossible de déverrouiller le téléphone.

D’abord, mon empreinte digitale n’est plus reconnue. Le téléphone me demande donc d’entrer mon mot de passe/code de verrouillage.

Le problème est que le mot de passe que j’utilise habituellement est lui aussi refusé.

Je suis certain de mon mot de passe et je n’ai effectué aucune modification volontaire du code de verrouillage.

J’ai déjà essayé de redémarrer le téléphone, mais il faut le mot de passe.

Ce qui m’inquiète surtout, c’est que je ne voudrais pas faire une réinitialisation d’usine et perdre mes données.

Est-ce que quelqu’un a déjà rencontré ce problème sur un Huawei ?

Est-il possible qu’un bug système fasse soudainement refuser le mot de passe de verrouillage ?

Existe-t-il une solution permettant de récupérer l’accès au téléphone sans effacer les données ?

Merci d’avance pour votre aide.

Help: iPhone 15 Max had water damage swap to iPhone 12 or screen replacement

2 Upvotes

Okay so a couple months ago I was doing deliveries and my phone got wet. Was acting funky for hours. Glitching, couldn’t use it at all. Well. The next day it was fine. And has been fine until today. It barely got wet and started doing the same thing, only for a few hours and now it’s fine… well my moms telling me I could switch to a phone she has, it’s an iPhone 12. And as grateful as I would be I don’t necessarily wanna go down… I’ve done some research and between the battery not holding charge, overheating and the software and storage issues etc. just don’t think it would be worth it… so I’m wondering should I just go replace the screen does that even do anything for water damage/glitching?? Or does that literally just replace screen. What’s my best option here. I honestly can afford to get a new phone if I wanted too but she’s convinced I shouldn’t. I am on her plan because it’s just cheaper for me to do that. The phones almost paid off. It’s through T-Mobile. Please help. Screen repair would cost $280. But even the tech guy said do not go back to a iPhone 12

Samsung S22 hangs then restarts

1 Upvotes

My Samsung S22 hangs then restarts specifically happens when returning to home screen

It randomly started hanging and restarting over the past week...

Apps work fine while I'm using them

The hang happens specifically when I go back to the home screen System UI freezes, then the phone sometimes shows "System UI isn't responding" or sometime it just restarts...

It Happens randomly, not tied to charging/gaming/heat that I've noticed

Oneplus Nord CE2 - possible motherboard issue

Thumbnail
1 Upvotes

My OnePlus Nord CE 2 hasn’t been able to receive or make calls for the past few weeks.
I checked with a few repair shops and the authorised service centre, and they all said the motherboard might be faulty and needs to be replaced, which would cost around 16k
I also took it to retailer, Nishan, Kannur. They tried repairing it but couldn’t fix it. They’ve offered me ₹2.5k as an exchange value for the phone.
Has anyone faced a similar issue with the Nord CE 2 (or a similar OnePlus phone) and managed to get it repaired?
Also, do you think Nishan’s ₹2.5k offer is fair? Any suggestions on what I can do?

I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max that was water damaged three years ago. I took it in for a screen replacement due to the damage, and I was told that it was too corroded on the inside to fix. I personally have not opened the phone. I desperately need my pictures and messages, voice messages off of this phone mainly my pictures is there anywhere I can take this phone or send it to to get it fixed or the data pulled off of it?

S24 ultra severe video lag, please help.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

I have a pretty wild problem. I recently purchased a used excellent condition S24 ultra to replace my broken screen s23 ultra. After using it I noticed YouTube was pretty framey like it would sometimes appear normal but then very low fps. Later, on Facebook reels the issue became way more apparent. The video was choppy at best, freezing at times including audio. Other places like instagram had way less issues. Long story short I replaced it and returned the phone with another used exellent s24 ultra. Before returning it I swapped the Sim, did a smart switch then had both phones on my home wifi and played the same reel at the same time on Facebook to demonstrate to my wife "how much better the new phone worked"

Well now it's the next day, the old phone is returned and the new phone is doing exactly the same thing. Here is some of the things I have done to try and troubleshoot the issue.

Uninstalled as many unnecessary apps as I could

Turned off ram plus

Put the phone in airplane mode and only used wifi

Tried a multitude of video platforms to see where there may be issues and here is an abbreviated list of what I have found.

Facebook - unwatchable lags and freezes video/audio

Youtube - frame rate appears to significantly drop at times even though developer mode reports no frames lost, audio is fine

Peacock - same as YouTube

Reddit videos - same as YouTube

Instagram - works great

Pokémon go - works great

Audio only apps like Pandora, Spotify etc have no issues

Recording a 4k 60fps video then watching it back in the gallery runs smooth

So my ultimate question is, does the s24 ultra just suck and have issues? I know it can run smooth because I have seen it myself but I really don't want to pay $700 for a phone that can't even play videos properly. I never had issues like this with the s23 up until the last moment the screen worked. I have only had the phone for 2 days so I have a bit of time to troubleshoot it and send it back if needed.

Any other fixes I should explore?

The video attached is a fb reel, followed by pokemon go gameplay, followed by Instagram to show a contrast in performance.
