      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hello, everyone. I am new here from google. I need your help about the GPS. Are there any active ?<br />
<br />
Last weekend, my bike mount failed mid-ride and sent my K8 Active by AOZORA tablet flying. It worked briefly after the crash, but now refuses to charge(clean, no damage or foreign matter intrusion). Two urgent questions:<br />
<br />
1. Repair SOS<br />
Anyone know California repair shops for AOZORA devices? I need original parts – Amazon doesn’t sell them. This tablet’s worked well before.<br />

2. Navigation...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Attention MASH 4077<br />
<br />
<br />
So you might have noticed we (i) closed the thread down, <br />
wasn&#039;t anything wrong with it, or that it was out of line, <br />
<br />
After a while some threads just start taking all the posts<br />
and become the main and only thread running on a board<br />
so it&#039;s time to close it down.  Typically it encourages new posts<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[We all need to be more careful when replying  to a post. Many users are clicking on the Reply tab and then start there reply inside the original message tabs. Makes it hard sometimes to distinguish where the original and new one ended and started. Always make sure you start your reply outside the [...]  boxes. I&#039;ve corrected several in the past.]]></content:encoded>
