    Yep, that APK also asks me for a password...

    I am thinking I can use a different Main Video Board..

    It might even fix the upside-down issue.. If not, at least it's unlikely to have a password installed..

        No luck on that.. Next step is to replace the FIRMWARE atmel chip.. Like I said.. Nuttin' ain't ever easy..

          I missed that.. But it's a 4 digit password

          I'll try 0410 and 4103...

              OK, this is weird bordering on bizarre..

              I did find another working Main Video Board..

              Installed it.. Still get the upside down picture..

              And it STILL asks me for a password when I use the APK SmartRemote...

                    Yea, none of the codes work..

                    It's weird that putting in a new Main Video Board didn't negate the need for a password..

                    Oh well.. My final option is simply to use a universal TV stand and mount the entire TV upside down..

                              I thought those "TOOL OPTION"s were numerical values..

                              They were actually OPTIONS... Duuuuhhhhhh

                              First one had mirror mode...

                              We're golden now.. Thanx a bunch for all the help!!!

                                    Check each tool option, see if theres a mirror option in any of m, oops I was too slow.

                                        by x_orange90_x
                                        Just bought this for 10 bucks yesterday hoping to fix it. The guy said water dropped inside from a dehumidifier hose and it started showing black and white vertical bars then went blank. When I got it home and turned it on it came on fine and displayed correctly but I was noticing faint vertical bars in the image. After a little bit I turned it off and back on and it was a black screen again. I opened it up to check for water damage and corrosion but didn't find anything of the sort. I cleaned the ribbons anyway and reconnected them but still got a blank screen. If I disconnect the right side...

                                        by thelankanguy
                                        The TV shows a black screen with no image.
                                        TCON ribbon connectors were disconnected individually for image and there was no half image even.
                                        Later both ribbons were disconnected and TCON voltages were tested.
                                        12V, 3.3V, 1.8V were seen present but VONE signal reads 0V.
                                        There is also a short to ground in this circled inductor.
                                        Is this a TCON issue or something else ?...

                                        BOE HV650QUB-F70 TCON issue - VGH AVDD HAVDD no voltage - caps seem ok
                                        by cagri
                                        I have an Arcelik TV with BOE HV650QUB-F70 TCON board, but I think there's an issue with/around PMIC.
                                        PMIC: iML8940

                                        There is backlight and sound, but no picture. I watched a YouTube video and turned it off, half an hour later it was dead.

                                        Input 12v, fuse ok
                                        DVDD1V2 = 1.2v
                                        DVDD1V8 = 1.8v
                                        DVDD3V3 = 3.3v
                                        VGL = -7v
                                        **VGH = -0.3v
                                        **VCOM0, AVDD, HAVDD = 0v
                                        SWBK1 = 3.3v
                                        SW1 = 12v

                                        VGH to GND resistance is 500kohm as expected

                                        Readings are same after I disconnected the two cables from TCON to panel...

                                        Vizio P759-G1, Tcon issue?
                                        by EazyBone
                                        Got this TV free. Guy said it tries to turn on and doesn't. I haven't seen this specific issue before but shown in video. Any way to test the screen to rule it out on these Vizio? Or anyone seen this issue before?

                                        Any help appreciated

                                        MacBook Air A2337 (820-02016) USB-C Port Issue – Only Works in One Orientation (CC Line Problem?)

                                        Hi everyone,

                                        I'm working on a MacBook Air 2020 (A2337, board 820-02016) and running into a strange USB-C issue. I've gone through quite a bit of testing and part replacement, but I'm stuck — hoping someone here can shed some light.

                                        🛠 Original Issue
                                        The machine initially wouldn't negotiate 20V over USB-C — stuck at 5V.
                                        Diagnosis showed PP1V5_UPC0_LDO_CORE shorted to ground.

                                        I replaced U3100 (UF400) using a donor board (A2179), and the machine powers on fine now.
