UE Wonderboom: Speaker turning itself off

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 16:30:14 -0700

I just got a new UE wonderboom speaker off of Amazon, fully charged it, and now when I try to play music through it it will turn itself off after playing for a few seconds. I’ve tried a default reset and removing the device from my phone, any ideas on what to do?

Blu Life One X (2016): BLU One Life X stuck in boot loop

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 16:29:59 -0700

Hi,

It looks like my BLU LIFE ONE X is stuck in a boot loop and I can't find a solution tailored to this phone. I would like to get into recovery mode as many sites suggest a cache swipe or reset, but I can't even get there.

I hold the buttons and on the top left corner is written

Recovery mode : Volume up

Factory reset: Volume down

When I click the up button the screen only goes black.

Also I can't remove the battery (inbuilt), on other phones it seems to be a part of the process to get to the Android recovery mode.

I had an iphone before and never such a problem. :(

Microsoft Surface Book 2 15": Can I replace just one of the batteries?

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 16:17:09 -0700

I’m thinking of trying to replace one of the batteries in a Surface Book 2 15” - is there any significant problem with either replacing just the screen segment battery or just replacing the keyboard section battery, but not both?

I just want to be able to unplug the unit and move it (separated or still attached to the keyboard) to plug it in in another room in less than 5 minutes without the whole device shutting down.

AFAICT, there’s no battery swelling, but neither the keyboard nor screen section batteries can hold any charge at all. There’s not even a one-second delay in turning off when the device is unplugged.

I’m not new to repairing devices, but I’m pretty new when it comes to fixing devices designed to defeat owner repair/maintenance.

Thanks for any thoughts, observations, or ideas.

LG Stylo 5: Are the screen/digitizers on Stylo 5 & Stylo 4 interchangeable?

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 17:36:27 -0700

I’ve been told by YTer Joe Cox that the screen units on LG Stylo 4 & 5 are the exact same part. Does anyone have any knowledge about this to verify?

I have a Stylo 4 with a great screen & caput charging port, and a Stylo 5 in great condition except for a shattered but still working screen.

Before I go to the trouble to try to remove the good screen (without destroying it) & put it on the other, I want to check to see if anyone else has thoughts/confirmation/suggestions.

Dyson V15 Detect: Dyson V15 Detect stops after a few seconds with no indicators

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 12:42:14 -0700

I've had it for nearly 2 years. The problem occurs when I press the trigger—it runs for a few seconds and then stops (with its signature "wooump" sound). It repeats this 2-3 times before eventually working. However, now I can't get it to run for longer than a few seconds, even after several tries.

I’ve changed the filter and cleaned everything I can access. In some forums, I’ve read that it might be an issue with the "main body," (whatever that means) while others suggest it could just be a cracked trigger, which should be an easy fix.

Morrison's Morphy Richards Soup Maker Model 2164012: Why has my Morphy Richards soup makers motor stopped working?

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 12:35:32 -0700

I'm not one for discarding items but after 9 months this product stopped blending. However, I'm sure it still manages to heat the temperature .

Model Number: 501015

Serial Number: 15018445

I have held on to this product in the hope I can fix it + bring it back to life. The signal is working when I plug it in at the mains. It appears the motor just won't operate as it should. I've looked inside the lid but it seems impossible to get beyond its exterior. Can you suggest if it's worth keeping hold of or not?

Thank you in advance

The problem started with the left side being silent as if it was getting it's wires were not attached to the speaker. Ever now and then, the left side still works if you wiggle it a bit. But the right side is completely quiet, no sound and no amount of wiggling can help get sound back. How do i fix this???
