    Macbook 2017 820-00840-A Damaged

    Hey all,

    I was in the middle of upgrading my SSD on my MacBook when I accidentally let my screw driver slip and it scraped against the board and broke off two tiny components.

    I've attached a picture of the board. Would anyone know what the two dots that I circled are?

    Thank you!

      Attached.

      These are emi filter caps - they will not be missed and will not stop the board from functioning. Perhaps will radiate a bit of interference if you are listing to your favorite AM radio stations.

          That’s great news! Thank you so much.
          Do I need to add solder to reconnect where the EMI filters were located, or is it alright to just leave it alone?

          Thanks!

              Leave open as-is. That is, the parts will not be present to bridge the exposed solder pads. If the parts were present, they will reduce some electromagnetic interference for over the air tv and radio. Not required for operation.

                      Macbook a1707 2017 model 820-00928 GPU issue
                      by sofles
                      Hello there

                      I have problem with Macbook Pro 15" 2017, model 2017, MB code 820-00928.

                      I bought it as broken with some artefacts on the screen, first I thought that this is problem with ribbon cable but after inspectiing ribbon cable I know it is fine. I tried to reinstall macOs and then I figured out that this must be something with GPU as installation freezes at the end (when drivers are loaded). I installed Windows and was able to install every each of drivers except GPU driver, as soon as I tried to install GPU driver - black screen and restart.

                      Fit 820-00244-А board in Apple Macbook A1534 2017 820-00687-А
                      by stefanbs
                      The laptop is Apple Macbook A1534 2017 with board 820-00687-А. The USB-C tester shows no voltage, there is 820-00244-А board available. I looked at both schematics, all connector signals seem to be the same. Did someone try to fit 820-00244-А board in A1534 2017?

                      HP Pavilion 15 bc400ns - Complete Black Screen - Only video on live usb
                      by iZakre
                      Hello everybody!

                      To put you in context I recently replaced the battery from my HP Pavilion 15 bc400ns with a used one, everything was going good. The same day, I decided to update the BIOS, everything went good. The thing occurred after I let the battery drain iddling on Windows 11 for the second time to calibrate it that the screen did not turn on again, the computer was on but the screen did not turn, like it would not wake from hibernation. I decided to restart the computer but got no video.

                      The thing is that I had installed TeamViewer and could log into the computer...

                      Apple 076-00236 Genuine Apple Data Migration Tool for MacBook Pro 2016 2017
                      by samstown
                      Hello,

                      This special tool from Apple is used to recover data from Macbook A1706. I've been using it for a while but it stops working. When connecting Thunderbolt 3 between the tool and working Macbook, Macbook should prompt "new device detected, allow or not"... but it doesn't.

                      Has anyone ever experience this ? It's not a cabling or power supply issue, some IC have stopped working but not sure which one. Probably the one that manager thunderbolt 3

                      Thanks

                      MacBook Pro 2018 with Activation Lock
                      by envym
                      Hi everyone!

                      I have a 2018 MacBook Pro (with Sequoia OS) that I've been using for years with no problem. I recently received an M2 MacBook Pro so I'm mostly using it and not the 2018 one, but since a friend of mine needs a computer, I thought I could restore my 2018 and give it brand-new-like to my friend.

                      I tried using the built-in tool to restore the MacBook (Settings > General > Transfer or restore > Delete) but it got stuck when trying to remove the Find Device configuration (it asked me for the password for my old Apple ID -now I use the same account but...
