    lg plasma interference from blackberry.

    Last november my lg 50 lost picture and sound and most of the icons in the menu bar i discussed it on the forum with several suggestions of the cause, in the end i took it to my dealer who managed to fix it with the engineers remote, but could not explain what had caused it,
    I have recently noticed evertime my daughter recieves a text message or sends one it interferes with the tv, if its within a couple of feet of it the picture and sound breaks up, Question, can the interference from a cell phone damage a tv or has anyone had a similar problem

    Re: lg plasma interference from blackberry.

    I've noticed that cell phones using GSM interfere a lot with audio products. While I've never had picture break up I have had buzzing and beeping noise when my phone is withing a few feet of a speaker. This happens in my car as well, if I have weak signal strength the phone will interfere with my car stereo. I have only had the happen with GSM phones and not with a CDMA based one.

    my blackberry curve did it, so did my friends and my current Galaxy S Captivate also does it.

      All GSM phones interfere with nearby electronics, causing the tell-tale buzzing noises and occasionally video interference as well. Altho, i haven't heard of a phone corrupting the EEPROM of a device (which is apparently what happened in your case).

      Sounds like bad RFI shielding in the TV, or a ground loop in its mainboard. Design flaw. Guess nobody was busy texting on their phone when they prototyped it.

      A working TV? How boring!

          yes could be rfi shielding on this model. have just noticed if phone is near any other tv in the house theres no affect just the lg 3000 ps i have another lg 50 which is a different model this is also unaffected.

            Help with trying to fix phone that is not charging (Pics inside)
            by SluggerB
            I have two TCL A30 phones.

            Old Phone: This phone worked fine for years, then stopped charging If you plugged a charger into it, the phone would make the charging sound, the phone would tell you it is charging, but the battery icon would not have the charging symbol in it and the battery would not charge.I tried new battery, same behavior.

            New Phone: Works fine, bought as a donor board to try and repair Old Phone

            My interest here is to repair Old Phone, using components parts off New Phone if needed. I am not interested in replacing Old Phone with New Phone....

            Panasonic Plasma screen interference on left half of screen
            by Zelek11
            My Panasonic Plasma model P55VT50 has started displaying "interference" on just the left half of the screen only (left when facing the screen). Sometimes it's concentrated in about the first 30 seconds after startup, then disappears. Other times it's fine at startup and then randomly does it later on. When it flashes the interference it's very quick and doesn't stay on the screen unless it flashes repeatedly in a row.



            This image is a screen shot from a video I took. This is an example of the interference at its worst. Often the interference is much smaller...

            new OS on a Sonim XP5s phone
            by keeney123
            To you programmers out there I want to know if it is possible to put a new OS on the Sonim XP5s phone? I only need this phone to make calls, receive calls, have a list of contacts and be able to call voice mail.
            I bought this phone new Sep.2021 as an unlock phone from a third-party seller. The phone worked fine until Jan 2022. I then had intermittent problems with the sound setting resetting itself. One of the settings, outdoor, would go to silent all by itself. When in silent mode it does not indicate a call has come in. I missed very important phone calls. All the other setting in sound...

            i cannot get rid of the interference in the video on this 1.1v and i have tried everything!
            by bulkchart32
            i recapped the entire foxlink psu with rubycon caps of the exact uf needed. i also purchased a delta psu to see if the different brand would change anything and it did not. i recapped the entire motherboard except for about 5 of the 22uf caps. i used rubycon on everything except the five in front of the processors. i used 5 nichicon polymer caps there. i soldered a wire to each screw hole of the psu and soldered one wire to the metal outer shell and one to a screw hole on the motherboard(to make sure it was all grounded well). i also recently tried disconnecting the power cables from the dvd drive...

            Help with Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime phone
            by mikey5791
            Hi all,
            Got this smart phone free from a guy who dropped it hard until the lcd display cracked with no seen display.
            Opened it and found the display ribbon cable partly damaged. I charged the phone full in 2 hours time, the led red light turns to green indicate full charge.
            Then i use a usb cable connect the phone to laptop but it only showed as media player with firmware version. Too bad there is no option to check folder.

            Does anyone know any method to check if the phone is working good? Looking forward for any advice and help possible.
            If tested the...
