I would recommend taking it to your local GeekSquad and telling them what specifically to replace, and why you cannot do it yourself. If you have a part for them to replace, give them the replacement if possible.

It is most likely that your UPS is not faulty. It probably doesn’t provide enough power to power all of your devices plugged into it at once. While it might be fine only powering your PC, after you have a monitor plugged into it, it probably won’t be able to handle the power draw from a PC under load and a monitor plugged into it. My suggestion would be to plug your monitor into a wall outlet, and only plug your PC into the UPS. Start playing an intensive game and then see if the UPS is still powering off. You may need to buy a higher rated UPS if the problem persists. 850 watts should be of an applicable amount, but you can never go wrong with more power. Also, you should factor in about a 100 watt headroom, as you never want a UPS that is rated for the same amount of power draw as your power supply.

Hello Sven Alleblas! Microfiber cloths come in many different sizes, and some are intended for different use cases. For a standard microfiber cloth you can buy on Amazon, these are a great choice: https://www.amazon.co.uk/MR-SIGA-Microfiber-Cleaning-Cloth-Pack/dp/B07HRCDDL1?ref_=ast_sto_dp I personally use these cloths when I clean all of my electronics, and they do wonders for cleaning up dirty screens, cases, and keyboards. Dust clings to them well, and you can use them with isopropyl alcohol without worrying about ruining the cloths. If you are looking for something a bit more heavy duty, these might be a great alternative: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Microfibre-Exel-Cleaning-Polishing-Accessories/dp/B004SH3SDM/ref=sr_1_5?dch...-5 These microfiber cloths are a tad larger, and are much thicker than the previous cloths. If you are looking for a microfiber cloth that is intended for use when cleaning screens, these would be a great option:...

Hello Paul Georges! I do not think it would have done anything to damage the operation of your device. You may want to clean the effected areas and leftover glue off by applying a small amount of some isopropyl alcohol and scraping off the residue with a microfiber cloth or spudger. Thank you for using iFixit! Happy fixing!

Based off of the information that you have provided above, it would appear that either your headphone plug is now damaged, or the headphone port on your phone is now damaged. It is most likely only the headphone cable or plug that is damaged. There is no way to “reset” the 3.5mm audio jack port on your phone.

Hello! This would effect the Siri dictation because there is actually microphones located near the camera that are used to pick up your voice more clearly. Also, if you are worried about your privacy, Apple iPhones are incredibly secure. One could argue that they are of the most secure smart phones in the world. Apple puts people’s privacy first. Nothing would be using your camera until you know about it or consent to it. You can know if an application is using your camera or microphone by taking a look at the top of your screen. There will be a yellow dot when the microphone is being used and a green dot when any of the cameras are being used. I hope this has helped you with your problem. Happy fixing!

Yes, you will need a converter as there are no microphones that have a micro-usb connection by default that would work with your device.

Have a wonderful rest of your week!
