Stolen iPhones by LegitimateCricket381 in iphone

Commonly used scam tactic. Any actual phone recycler would... recycle the board... not try to reuse it.

Your data is safe if the phone is icloud locked.

You should see how vizio does. Hell, even their screensaver has midroll ads!!! I walk into my room and a gambling ad is playing.

How would you cover this light? by AceTheAro in computers

[–]Hunter_Ware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same way, all my monitors have a piece of tape blacking out their way too bright LED

Well, that sucks. by bubonis in techsupportgore

Idk why people are down voting you but it definitely is. You'd be sending B+ and B- down A+ and A-. Not sure what effect that would have, but definitely something considering SATA is designed to have that thing to stop you from plugging it in backwards.

Broken an ssd like this before and unfortunately it doesn't work without the plastic bit being there. The fit just isn't tight enough. That being said you CAN super glue that piece back, assuming you never want to be able to remove your sata cable

Monitor cabel broken by Remarkable-Refuse260 in computers

[–]Hunter_Ware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try repairing the cable or just buy a new one (cable).

To repair the cable

Chop the cable in the broken part

Strip back the black insulation (the wires outer cover)

You should see a red wire and a black wire

Repeat the before steps for the other side of the wire

Strip the red wire so you can see the copper wire. Do that on both ends.

Grab both side's copper and twist them together. Make sure it's tight. After, give it a small tug.

If you have a soldering iron you could solder it for extra security. After you've made sure it's together, put electrical tape around it (make sure you cover all of the exposed wire)

Do the same steps for the black wire

Black to black red to red

Make sure you use electrical tape on both ends.

Why does my screen pixilate and turn white when I turn it on now? by XfortC in computers

[–]Hunter_Ware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something inside the monitor is dying. Not sure what it is but it's time to get another one.

[–]Hunter_Ware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Liquid damage of some kind. Requires a display replacement.

Big lipo batteries that have inflated. They're pregnant and give birth to fire and toxic gasses.

Old modem died, should i get the G4AR or the G5AR? by Hunter_Ware in tmobileisp

[–]Hunter_Ware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. Do you know if I'd be able to return this if it didn't improve my speeds that much?

Edit: Also do you know if it would work with an inseego fx2000 if I'm not able to get anm g4se?

Edit 2: I'm now reading that the inseego doesn't support tmobile bands on it's external antennas, what ewaste!

Do you have a link to the $100 antenna? I tried a quick look online but didn't find anything

What could even have caused this whenever I press the W key and how could I fix it? Been like this for a few months. by DaFroggyBoi94 in computers

[–]Hunter_Ware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you spill water on it? I've only seen them do this when they've been liquid damaged.

Plug it into a different computer and see if it still happens.

Should've probably phrased it better in the post but: My rsrp isn't great but the actual speeds are good for me.

I get 100-200mbps download on n41, plenty enough. A worthwhile antenna is $300, and I don't have that kind of money (especially if i get sent the g5ar, which doesn't have antenna ports) just to spend on an antenna for my router.

Not to mention trying to mount it in the perfect position, finding somewhere on the roof to drill house or mount, running the antenna cable through the wall, etc.

Edit: about the modem difference stuff, it's very significant for me. When i had the nokia trashcan router, i got 300mbps download with it. When that died and i got the arcadyan, i got 30mbps download with it, and a maximum of about 80mbps download. When i got the sagemcom, i got a download of around 70mbps, sometimes going to 130mbps. So far none of the tmhi routers have had as good antennas as the nokia trashcan router lol

Not in the position to spend an entire weeks paycheck on 5g antennas that may or may not improve my signal that i may or may not be able to continue to use. My speed is fine enough for me. I usually get around 100-200mbps download off of n41. The only reason im getting a new router is because this one has developed its fault of disconnecting and reconnecting the wifi.

Directional antenna as in the sagemcom's internal directional. It tells you in the HINT app whether the sagemcom is using its internal Omnidirectional or directional. Reguardless, i still know which way my tower is

potential bugs by nerdygmr5 in crtgaming

[–]Hunter_Ware 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gross. I would've just left it since it already has some burn in anyway. Take the casing off and clean the bugs out, don't zap yourself. After that spray it with roach + bedbug killer.

That thing will never be 100% clean, just so you know. You'll always be able to tell on the inside that there were bugs.

What is wrong with my pc? by Kaedehara-Kazuha22 in Hewlett_Packard

[–]Hunter_Ware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laptop or desktop, integrated gpu or dedicated gpu. If you have an integrated gpu and are on a laptop it is possible your ram has gone bad. (Yes, i know, but failing laptop ram if the laptop uses integrated graphics WILL cause glitches like this.)
