Answer to "Battery or DC in Board?" May 5
Hi, I think the DC board is fine as the charger turns orange, which means the charger is detected. Seems like the battery has had it. Or you might have not plugged all the cables in properly. Please check all the cables are seated properly. You can also check when plugging in the charger if the charge level on the battery is rising. Also try booting without the battery.

Answer to "I broke the flex cable when opening the phone" May 5
Hi, Are you sure the flex cable is damaged ? If it is, then the flex cable can be repaired but needs professional tools and steady hands. Otherwise, it a new panel. Also dont throw the panel away as you need to copy the information from your old panel to the new one, so that true tone works.

Answer to "MacBook is overheating from idle to regular use" 05/25/2017
Hi, I would suggest use an app to control your fans, so that they spin a bit more faster which in turn will keep the temps down. I would suggest try using this app and see how it works. You could also try and re-apply your cpu compound which will help as well to reduce the temps. https://www.crystalidea.com/macs-fan-control Hope this will solve your issue.
