This is a technique which is often useful for repairing both simple mechanical devices and expensive electronics. It involves very carefully using a sudden application of force to the affected device/area. It is possible to do things from basic repair to complex reorganisation on the physical level.

Warning: if used improperly, this technique may harm the resale value of the device
