Have you checked the battery? Maybe it’s almost time to replace.

With the laptop on Target Disk Mode (booting from another Mac drive), try moving some files to another drive. Sounds like your Mac’s drive is too full, which caused apps and Finder to not work.

I wouldn’t give it a shot since the phone’s board may have a different layout and the battery may have different size from the original one.

Although this is not an option for you, I suggest taking the laptop to a repair shop just for cleaning. I haven’t experienced any damage with Milk, so simple water damage cleaning “should” work.

Sounds like your MacBook Pro suffered exactly the same issue as mine. Mine got the booting problem solved but at the cost of the battery as it was not charging at all. Try starting the MacBook Pro without a battery, see if it can boot to the login screen. For the GPU, you better off finding a proper replacement chip that Apple issued for the problem, since reballing the old chip may fix the problem, but temporarily, even with leaded solder.

Unfortunately, salt water is conductive, and as such, may short components on your phone. Not only that, it also causes corrosion so it may have caused your buttons to stop registering any presses and also cause the screen to not turn on. You can give it a shot by cleaning the whole internals with 90% Alcohol, but I wouldn’t guarantee the phone works as it should because of the salt water submersion.

First, I would like to point out that your description is messy, making it unnecessarily difficult to know what problem you’re having. I would like to guess that your problem would be: (1) Replacing the Keyboard (2) Replacing the Trackpad (3) Replacing the Battery However you mentioned that your Macbook is “dead” (or simply wouldn’t turn on) because your charger cord broke. (1) So, I’d recommend doing the following: Try borrowing an 85w Magsafe charger from a friend to see if your Macbook would still turn on. (1) If your Macbook turns on with your friend’s charger, that means the charger is the first problem. (2) After turning it on, try both the keyboard, trackpad and check the battery. Start by logging in with your password, moving the cursor around and checking if the battery is charging on the top right indicator. If your keyboard and trackpad doesn’t work, try plugging in an external keyboard and mouse, see if that works. Then check the battery health in System Profiler. Also, try cleaning your...

Try replacing the capacitors on the board. Plasma TVs are known to go bad because of old, leaking capacitors.

Does it glow bright when charging? If yes then probably a short/leak but not a bad one. Should be OK, though.

Is it a cable which connects to a controller, or to the Touch Bar itself? If it's a ribbon cable then you're out of luck, better replace the whole part.

That’s indeed an M.2 SSD but you’ll need an adapter as the one that came with the Macbook uses a proprietary connector.

Late answer, but it seems like there’s replacement parts for the corners now. I don’t know how to replace them, though.

If you’re referring to the charging coil, there’s a high chance the coil is toast at some part. The USB port might work again if you clean it with Isopropyl Alcohol with a swab or raising the “tongue“ part of the socket.

Disassembling the phone should reveal the broken stylus inside, although it may be a bit stuck when you try to separate the midframe.

It looks like the cable, if not an antenna itself, connects to a part of the phone which is an antenna sticking in the plastic part of the bezel. It is doable, but it’ll look a bit ridiculous.

So far I remember, the charging coils are sitting on top of the battery, sandwiched between the back panel. Probably covered because of different variants.

Although a glass replacement is possible, it won’t be worth because a small mistake (too much heat, too much force, etc) can potentially damage the AMOLED panel or Digitizer.

As a quick answer, phones nowadays store files on a chip called an eMMC chip. In the case of the Note5, it’s a UFS-II chip.
