    [SOLVED] Motorola G6 Plus - No Sound at all

    The rest of the phone works as it did from day one, just the speaker/earpiece, and headphone jack seem to have given up the ghost pointing towards motherboard failure. I can buy a replacement earpiece from eBay, but can't source a motherboard.

    [SOLVED] Motorola G6 Plus - No Sound at all

    Unfortunately a simple restart doesn't do the trick. I'll try resetting the app preferences, but I'm not convinced that will do it, reason being that the sound would cut out if the phone was flexed, which points to a bad point of contact somewhere internally. Thanks for your suggestion, I'll...

    [SOLVED] Motorola G6 Plus - No Sound at all

    Hi all, Have been having a rather strange issue with my Moto G6 Plus that I've owned for around a year and a half now. My speaker has been rather temperamental after having my phone bend whilst inside my pocket, to the point where if the bending of the phone is causing the speaker to die and...

    Asus Nexus 7 - Possible Broken LCD Ribbon

    Hi, I recently bought a new screen for my N7, which when attached, didn't work. However, I didn't think the screen would've been broken on arrival. Anyway, I had a working N7 laying around and decided to mix and match parts to try and diagnose what the issue was. Now neither nexus' displays...

    GTX 970 Possible Under-performance?

    I can get it to 4.2 w/o any alterations since I use MSI one-click OC in the BIOS, but any higher and it BSOD's and I have to clear the CMOS. However even 4.2 pushes it. I bought the PSU off the fact that it would handle all my components at stock levels. I didn't really have any OC'ing...

    GTX 970 Possible Under-performance?

    Nice man! That may be why your machine benchmarks higher than mine because of the CPU being a slight upgrade and OC'ed. I would OC my I5 4670K to 4.4 but it'd be risky w/ only a 500W.

    GTX 970 Possible Under-performance?

    Yeah I too have no Core or Memory overclock, but I use the card as it comes + MSI Afterburner for the 110% power limit w/ no voltage increase. Just out of interest, what processor do you have?
