Will iFixit ever carry screw sets for iPhones and other devices? 01/13/2011
Anyone know where to get a screw set for a 3gs? I have been looking for awhile but never get the whole set. Maybe iFixit...

Answer to "iPhone with brand new display still has white screen." 01/05/2011
more often than not, the white screen issue is not "hardware" based. It may be, but try a from "firmware" rebuild and see if that helps. No guarantees but if you have already tried everything else I would suggest it as my wife's was having this issue and it seems to have solved the issue. That being said, I did change out my wife's battery and after a few "don't use the 3g parts on 3gs!" mishaps the firmware rebuild was the one thing that resolved the last (white screen) issue. Only use this as a solution of last resort, but it worked for me. Many iphone issues on the 3gs have a "white screen" symptom but 3 or 4 times a rebuild from saved firmware fixed the issue.
Answer to "replaced broken screen and display is dim" 12/13/2010
had the same problem. tried everything but checked the settings and saw that the settings were turned down. turn it all the way up and see what you find.
Answer to "starts but stops by login, fan is not running" 11/18/2010
had this a few times myself. make sure the fan connector did not come out of it's socket and that the socket itself is sitting flush and that both pins are making their way through the socket and into the fan connector. common issue with the D series.
Answer to "When Power Supply is Plugged into The Computer It Shuts Off...Why?" 11/18/2010
The battery is not charging from your description. 1. power off, remove battery and put on charger and then try again. battery shorts are common on the D620. 2. try another power adapter as the power adapters have a pretty high failure rate on the D series Latitude laptops (I have over 120 of them at my office, they are not very reliable and have many issues) 3. check and clean battery and power contacts 4. check power connectors to mb and to batt update if these do not work
Answer to "New battery is not charging." 11/16/2010
make sure that you have the right battery! I accidentally did the same with a iPhone 3gs and a 3g battery. If you have the wrong battery or a bad battery you will soon get a constant reboot once the batt dies.
Answer to "Can I use a batery from iPhone 3G to 3gs?" 11/16/2010
NO! this will cause your iphone to start doing a non stop reboot to the apple screen until it kills the battery. I just did this to my wife's phone after successfully replacing my own with a proper 3gs battery. Let me tell you, I am really in the dog house now... going to replace with a proper 3gs battery and see if it works...
Answer to "Third Party apps won't launch after screen replacement" 11/16/2010
I have found an app resync from iTunes fixed the issue for me. I removed all of the apps from the phone and reinstalled them from the app store.
