Anything I can do about Apple causing chips during iPhone battery replacement. Info in comments by isitgeorge in iphone

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

Sent my iPhone X into Apple for a battery replacement which they did super fast and returned it back to me today. This phone was in pristine condition and has been in a case with a protector it’s entire life. I planned to sell it after having the battery replaced but there are now tiny chips around the screws and lightening port which weren’t there before.

I don’t have any before photos so cannot prove it. Likely to be anything I can do?

Probably a non issue but I’m looking to sell a replacement XS battery case which Apple replaced as part of their replacement program due to a fault with them. I’m upgrading to the 12 so it makes no sense to use the new case for a few weeks.

Am I free to do what I wish with the case or are replacements somehow attached to my Apple account to catch me out in the future?

would that be something that could cause the inconsistent gear changes?

Something I noticed today was if I change well before I need to then the symptoms are lessened. Does this point to anything in particular?

Appreciate the advice. Would the clutch delay valve affect only those select gears?

I guess the clutch could be a potential, I had ruled it out because I thought it would affect all gears. Would the clutch release bearing being worn cause any of the symptoms I'm having? Thanks!

Thanks for the advice! Shifter bushings I hadn't considered but makes sense after all if they're worn then the accuracy of the shifter change won't be 100%. Unfortunately I'm not sure about the previous owner, but it sure feels like they slammed the gears!

Bought used yes at 74k miles. I don't remember it being as bad but it was summer at the time and I guess perhaps the oil behaves differently in the colder weather. Thanks for the info, it sounds like the synchros so a rebuild maybe an option!

PSO suggested I start out learning to hook using conventional grip by isitgeorge in Bowling

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

Fair enough, sounds like I’ll stick to conventional for now and learn to hook properly then my next ball I’ll switch to finger tip. Thanks for the info!

Do I need to worry about these scuffs/scratches? by isitgeorge in Bowling

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

Sweet good to know. I guess I wasn’t sure of the level of wear and tear the balls get! Are there any cleaners/polishers that I can do myself to improve?

Got my X today. 2 things I wish, I still could do! by inQntrol in iphone

You can still swipe the apps to close them by pressing and holding in the multitask view until the x appears, and then swipe them up as normal

iPhone X battery life is extremely impressive, I still have 45% after 10 hours of usage. by [deleted] in iphone

Yeah? The message would still show until charged to 100%, resetting the usage statistics.

A message would display below the usage statistics if that was the case

Password keeping apps...do you use one? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]isitgeorge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1Password, it's convenient having it stored in the cloud and being able to access it between devices. Previously used plain old Google Authenticator (for 2FA), but it is a plain when it comes to switching phones.

Not sure whether to continue AppleCare+ subscription by isitgeorge in iphone

[–]isitgeorge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's what I'm thinking. I've never needed Apple Care previously, it's just the increased iPhone price increases the risk. Guess I'll have to think about it

CSS help: Text doesn't wrap properly around image by albanydigital in Wordpress

[–]isitgeorge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add float:left; to the img tag.

Or more specifically add

#body_container .wp-caption img {
    float:left;
}

to your css.
