iPhone SE 2022: iPhone SE randomly goes into Sleep mode

Tue, 19 May 2026 09:24:02 -0700

My iPhone SE randomly goes into Sleep (Focus) mode. I have reset the device, removed the sleep schedule, and have taken it to Apple Genius Bar. They are stumped as is their remote technical support. They suggest it is a hardware issue and there is no coverage for my vintage phone. Besides buying a new phone, any suggestions?

Samsung RF28R7201SG Refrigerator: Need help identifying a part

Tue, 19 May 2026 08:15:31 -0700

Brand: Samsung
Model Number: RF28R7201SG
Main Symptom: Need help to identify a part
What happens & when: NA

Error Code (if any): NA
Parts or tests already tried: NA
Photos / video link: SamsungIceMakerPart - Google Drive

Trying to identify this part. It is a bit melted from when I used a heat gun to melt some ice ('I know, bad idea). This is the plastic piece that protects the Styrofoam surrounding the freezing element in the Ice Master ice maker. It goes around the element and the foam. The auger assembly actually slides into this and the fan mates up with the bottom.

Redmi Note 9 Pro: My phone is overheating after I replaced its middle frame

Tue, 19 May 2026 07:42:51 -0700

I replaced my Redmi note 9 pro's middle frame, by taking all components from previous frame, and fitting it in the new frame.
phone works. all good.

but I charged my phone, in switched off state, and 5-10 mins later the phone is hot.
the CPU side specifically. not the entire motherboard.

The battery drain seems to be normal
phone works fine
battery is not hot, nor is it swelled up.

what could be the reason?

Could it be something is shorting? I did not remove anything from CPU, i just put it as it is
There is also no thermal paste in it, but could that cause heat just from charging the phone?
(the original phone barely had thermal paste in it, like few patches of thermal paste. not a fully applied one.)

iPhone 13 Pro Max: iPhone 13 Pro Max white/pink screen then dead after repair

Tue, 19 May 2026 07:11:43 -0700

My iPhone 13 Pro Max started with white screen flickering but was still usable underneath. I could still receive notifications and even screen mirror to my MacBook.

Over time it became:

white screen
occasional recovery
then reboot loops with pink screen flashes before shutdown

A third-party shop replaced the display with a non-genuine screen. After that:

phone rebooted every ~5 mins
then eventually stopped turning on completely

Apple checked it and said:

connectors looked fine
no obvious tampering
but they could not power it on

Phone still warms slightly while charging.

Does this sound more like:

OLED/display failure,
battery/power management,
or board-level issue?

Has anyone seen similar 13 Pro Max cases where the data was still recoverable?
