<title><![CDATA[Samsung Television: Samsung UN85Au800 dark screen]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I bought a UN85au8000 a little over a year ago. About 2 months after I got it, the left side of the screen went dark as though the backlighting turned off. It wasn't THAT much of an inconvenience so I just let it go. But yesterday the right side went dark too.</p>

<p>But then later in the day the left side lit back up. While the right side stayed dark, then the middle also went dark. Left side still good. The right side kind of flickers once in a while. I'm assuming that the backlighting itself doesn't need to be replaced since the left side came back on and the right side still flickers.</p>

<p>I know this is a relatively common issue, but I've never seen anyone say they've had the exact same thing happen as I have. I.e one side being off, then coming back on again eventually while the other 2/3 of the screen go &quot;off&quot; all in one day. Any suggestions?</p>

<title><![CDATA[VU Television: Red and yellow horizontal lines on the display screen]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>There are red and yellow horizontal lines on the tv. Initially the the screen was flickering and after the tapping method of gate lines, the screen stabilized but the horizontal lines have come up right in the center.</p>

<p>Either we are not considering the right number of gate lines or there is something else we can't detect. Does anyone have any idea on how we can solve it?</p>

<title><![CDATA[TI-84 Plus CE: How can I fix my flashing screen (TI-84+CE)]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>My calculator seems to have decided to no longer likes me, and is having startup issues.</p>

<p>It is stuck on a flickering white screen. I can’t turn it off. It doesn’t seem to be turning off on its own. I’d prefer to not have to completely wait for it to drain considering that I just finished charging it yesterday. The calculator does not seem to fully load at all and does not appear in the TI Connect CE program when plugged in to the computer. This is my personal calculator and I’d really like to have it fully working again, and if possible, salvage the programs I have on it. Is there anything I can do, short of buying a new calculator? Or is there a factory reset feature available anywhere I can use?</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>My calculator will not turn on despite being at full battery (when it charges it has a green light). The screen does not turn on when I press the on button, instead it stays black. I have even bought a replacement battery online, but this did not seem to help. Before, my calculator would often not turn from time to time, but still turned on occasionally, and it always turned on after a few seconds of charging it, but now it does not.</p>

<title><![CDATA[UE Wonderboom: My Wonderboom - powers on but won’t power off by same button and….]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>Hoping for some help bit long shot I appreciate. My speakers not turning off by the button I can turn it on from so one assumes the button is ok?</p>

<p>The volume buttons do nothing and are unresponsive.</p>

<p>These issue existed before I dismantled it to replace the battery and was kinda hoping that may fix all the issues or at least re seating everything.</p>

<p>Any suggestions greatly appreciated,</p>

<p>For info this is an original wonderboom and it still plays music albeit quality is bit naff now. Will likely buy a replacement but I’m a stickler for trying to fix before scrapping anything.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<title><![CDATA[Logitech UE Boom: Why does my UE Boom require 3+ attempts to connect?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>My UE Boom seems to consistently require three attempts before a Bluetooth connection is established my laptop (MacBook m1, up-to-date).  Anyone know what is causing this and/or how to fix it?</p>

<p>Steps:</p>

<ul><li>Turn on laptop (defaults to Bluetooth on) and UE Boom (previously paired).</li></ul>

<ul><li>First attempt.  Connect laptop to UE Boom via laptop toolbar.  Fails to connect.  This sometimes 1-3 times.</li><li>Second attempt.  Turn on UE Boom and try to connect via laptop toolbar again.   This results in UE Boom turning off instead of connecting.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Third attempt.  Turn on UE Boom and once again try to connect via laptop toolbar.  This time the connection is made and UE Boom behaves normally until turned off.</li></ul>

<title><![CDATA[LG Television: Replacement LED Strips Too Short?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>First time attempt at replacing LED backlights for me.  Picked up an old LG 55&quot; tv (LG 55UM7300PUA) that has an overly blue picture.  Ordered some replacement LEDs off Ebay, and got them in this week.  Part number seems to match (SSC_Y19_TRIDENT_55UM73), but the eight-LED strips are only about 22&quot; long (as in, about half the length of the tv screen).</p>

<p>I haven't broken open the TV yet, but before I do so, was wondering if having LED strips so short compared to the length of the TV is normal.</p>

<p>Also, I noticed that the markings on each strip are identical (i.e., there's no &quot;A&quot; or &quot;B&quot; strip designation).  Are these strips typically interchangeable among themselves?</p>
