  • Answer to: I can't get front panel off-tools too soft

    I ended up using a guitar pick. I bought tow of varying thickness. I also went back to using my small regular screwdriver since the glass was already broken. I still can not imagine the plastic opening tool could successfully open the front cover. They just bend so easily at the point of trying to insert them. A video showing someone doing this would be nice.

  • Answer to: Can I check screen if it already restored after water?

    THanks for checking. Let's see. My memory is that others told me there is no way, and it is best to take off screen and clean whole board with rubbing alcohol to clean out water residue. I was in the UK at the time and was gung ho to try this. 2 problems. 1) No one would sell me isopropyl alcohol in the UK. I went to three Chemists (pharmacists) and two hardware stores and a grocery. I think it showed up on a list of bomb or drug making supplies. It was weird. 2) I couldn't get parts on the ground and could not wait for a shipment. I did find a place in London that would do the repair job but not sell me the part. I don't know why. I gave in. They fixed it for around 100 pounds I think, roughly half price of new one. It works fine now. They replaced the LCD.
