Chosen Solution I’m located in Canada. I have an Alcatel T-Mobile Sparq cellphone which is unlocked. When I try to make a call it’s saying emergency call only. Please tell me how to make regular calls Thanks! Is it possible you’re in a 2G service area with degraded services? T-Mobile is keeping it alive until 2020, but it’s being depreciated in certain areas - none of us can tell you where this is happening so even we don’t know enough to tell you about your specific situation with 2G availability....

Xperia Z has a removable battery if my memory serves me right....

Chosen Solution Ventilation is going into boost modus and going back to standard, making lots of noise. I don’t seem to be able to get in the menu, display shows a half bar.

Some systems have a wired controller if this is the issue then you can check the screen on the unit itself....

Chosen Solution Purchased these rockcrawlers - used one hour and one of two rock crawlers front wheels will not turn - does not respond to the remote control device. I have owned two of these rock cralers- the old version and the new. Both have had this problem. Return them and get a low end Traxxas, or other non-generic brand. Given the age I would just return it. It’s covered under warranty....

They can be quite fiddly to get back into the sockets, or any possibility you could have damaged them during the removal process? Replacement loud speakers are really cheap to get online.

You want to check to see if the vertical Sync cable is seated (Step5)....

Chosen Solution Cooling fan is runing permanent and it’s so noisy. Hi @elham , Is the fan vent clear and unobstructed? It may be that the fan is dusty and the vent is being obstructed preventing the efficient removal of heat from the CPU which causes the CPU to run hot and therefore the fan keeps running, most probably at high speed, hence the noise. It could also be that the CPU is running hot due to the thermal paste being caked and dried out, preventing a good transfer of heat to the heat sink assembly....

Chosen Solution I dropped Nikon D3100. No damage visible on the body or lens. Images are 80% black. I can see images in playback LCD screen. I’ve determined the lens is not the problem.

Hopefully the motherboard repair guide will get you far enough into the camera to check that the CCD sensor connection is OK or to replace the CCD sensor- example only if necessary....
