Once you know that, you can find it mentioned and even pictured in many places: on Apple’s own discussion forums, on PDFs inadvertently posted publicly by university IT help desks ( ahem), or even in the dark corners of YouTube. Apple’s Cloud-Based Diagnostic & Calibration Toolsįirst off, Apple’s diagnostic software has a name: Apple Services Toolkit 2, often abbreviated as AST 2. And take a look at Samsung’s own secret repair app, while we’re at it. What, exactly, can Apple-approved folks do with all this secret software-that-shall-not-be-named? Let’s dive into what we know. We’ve previously written about Apple’s internal diagnostic software, which Right to Repair legislation aims to make available to the rest of us. ![]() Instead, Apple’s official repair procedure requires proprietary software tools, available only to Authorized Service Providers and members of Apple’s unlaunched Independent Repair Program. No sacrifices or incantations can overcome this. Trying to replace core Mac parts can trigger a lock-out. You can do a lot, but in the newest iPhones, you can’t restore Touch ID, install a new battery, or replace a screen without a warning. No mere mortal, lacking Apple’s stamp of approval, can completely fix the company’s products. 16bit 16M Design 18 Uppercut 1983 Toys 1am 20 inch dunny 20/20 2000AD 2008-wrap-tre 2013 MINICEL CUSTOM SHOW MANILA 2013 REVIEWED 2013-END 2016 Best Nine 2017BestNine 2018 DesignerCon Toy Watch 2020 ENDS 2020 Tokyo Olympics 2021 Unbox Christmas Countdown 20RANGERS20YEARS 20th Century Fox 20thcenturyboys 21LIONS 222kawaii 24 24hcdsg 24hcdsg 2017 24hcdsg 2019 25April 27fools 2bitHACK 2K4 2nd2friend 2oz 2petalrose 2Zakka 3 BALLS 3 kingdoms 300 300-rise 3300 35MechatroWeGo 360toygroup 36chambers 3a 3a associates 3A DOOM 3A Geof Darrow 3A Hasbro 3A Judge Dredd 3A Judge Dredd Apocalypse War 3A Last Knight 3A MEGATRON 3A Old City Blues 3A Paul Pope 3A Punisher 3a Rusted Optimus 3A Shaolin Cowboy 3A SPIDERMAN 3A Toys Bravest Warriors.Edit (11/2/19): This post was updated to clarify and add information on more of Apple’s repair apps. #DCON2014-Round-up #DRAWDANGERDOG #KeepFightingNYC #listeningto #MyBestof2018 #OnceUponADeadpool #sparktoyjoy #TodayonTOYSREVIL #TopTenToysof2018 #TopTenToysof2021 #toynews #TOYSfor2019 #TOYSREVIL14 #TOYSREVILTop9for2021 #WhatsNewin2020 007 009 009 SPACE WALKER 009RECYBORG 1-minute review 1/12 1/12.ACTION FIGURES 1/18 1/35 1/4 1/6 1/6 bags 1/6 batpod 1/6 customs 1/6 femme 1/6 jackiechan 1/6 jaychou 1/6 kiss 1/6 kitbash 1/6 SAFS 1/6 singster 1/6 sneaks 1/6 tumbler 1/6 vehicles 1/6-24 1/6-godfather 1/6-hobbyweek 1/6-titans 1/6-vito 10 Cloverfield Lane 10 THINGS THAT MAKE YOU TICK 100 SOFT 100-smurf-mara 100% Soft 100%Soft 1000% 100000 horsepower 1000monsters 1000monsters 2 1000monsters 3 1000Monsters VINYL 1000tentacles 1000Tentacles BJD 1000Tentacles Star Wars 1000Tentacles Star Wars 2 1000Tentacles Star Wars 3 1000Tentacles Wild Things 1000toys 1000TOYS for STGCC2017 100soft 103 NO WAR 109 HOPE 10doh 10KonFB 10X10 10yearsablog 11.11 SALE 11808 11pixsfor2011 12 MONTHS APO FROGS 1212Creations 123klan 127 12daysofxmas 12daysofxmas2012 12th Park 12x2012 13 Dunny 13 Lucky Monkey 13ART 13x2013 13x2013-END. be that as it may, this is not about "curation of content", but is as much a reflection of how folks viewed and remember a person, whose work should not be forgotten to consumers like us, IMHO. My personal interaction with the gentleman as well included featuring his toyart on TOYSREVIL, and physically receiving his PILLAGING POP CULTURE (Series 1) from 2013 (A blind box series with Tenacious Toys), a line-up which I hold dear to my collection of THE MUPPETS memorabilia.
