Comment on [help] Black Screen of Death
AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 1 day agoIf you’re talking about battery recalibratiom, which is the first thing I found, I don’t think I can. Any post I see on it says to drain the battery as the first step, but I don’t have a clue whether it’s using any battery power while unplugged right now. So I’d have to hope the battery is draining and hope when I plug it in that it wouldn’t be saying it’s at full charge.

they have the regular warranty. it’s basically one of their selling points.
But also: have you tried unplugging the battery and reconnecting it? maybe the connection is a bit flaky

I didn’t try because there were a couple ribbony clip things on top of it and I didn’t feel comfortable removing them, but I’ll try that next chance I get.

yeah, understandable. the ribbon is there to help pull it out. it pulls out sideways, which is a bit awkward. You can check ifixit disassembly tutorial to seee how to best do it

While looking up warranty info, I stumbled upon the ifixit stuff and planned on following their guide, so I’m at least good there.
