Apple laptop repairs or data recovery in Phnom Penh?

Post by AE86 »

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone knows a decent data recovery service in Phnom Penh. I have a badly damaged Macbook which looks to have completely toasted the motherboard. Hard drive looks visually okay (soldered to the board style and untouched) but the board itself is warped and burnt.

Might be a long shot (probably need to desolder and resolder the drive to a new board).

Cheers,
AE

Try iOne

https://www.ioneservice.com/

No guarantees but if there's a place in PP for anything Apple, that's the one.

Cheers all.

Yeah iOne wasn't much help (no charger even in stock to replace my frayed one). I'll try the other two.

I don’t know why people keep recommending IOne. They’ve been useless the two times I’ve tried.

Because you ≠ me. That simple. We don't live in one house. We are not chained to each other day and night. Thus, I can't know what's useless for you or not (or maybe it's because you're useless).

Yes, nice branding of yourself. Sehr angemessen. Passt Ihnen wortwörtlich genau zu.

Did I miss what was supposed to be offensive?

Either or, I haven't had any luck with iOne over the years either for what it's worth. Bluetronics branches have been okay for having new stuff in stock, but no repair info. Last iPhone I had fixed was at a local "small" shop but it lasted just 2 months and was toast again so...

Well that’s two of us who’ve found them useless (repairs) so we outnumber that guy who’s got upset for some reason.

Any luck with Alex?
