about this website and the story of this website. this website was and is one of the first websites i coded i started this website back in around early 2023 and started codding it on an old iphone 6 plus i kid you not this website was originaly cooded and made on an iphone 6 plus originaly the site didnt have much as i was still learning how to code in html and what to make of this website i took a break for a few months than came back and redid the whole thing than i started making more and redoing this whole website and its mainly came together a bit ago i took a almost a year break from building this website i was thinking about discontinuing this website as you can see in some of my older posts after a bit i finally decided to finally fix and redo the whole website witch is going to be a lot but it will give me somthing to do other than this website is just my website for electronics info and help with electronics.
this is the type of phone this website was made and built on. a gold iphone 6 plus running ios 12 it was a good phone and since the 6 plus is big it worked i was able to code and do everything on it other than shortly after i finally got a laptop and i used that to code the website more.
over the last few years of making this site the site has gone through lots of changes and more this site has changed so many time as im typing it ive updated it over 3000 times since around the middle of 2023
the first thing i codded this site on was the iphone 6 plus but ive coded this site on so many difrent devices ranging from new to old so here is some of them. ive coded this site on an ipad 9th gen also on a macbook air 2014 and a macbook air 2007 but the newest of all witch im using to type this right now is my macbook air m1 ive also coded this site on my phone my iphone 13 im thinking about atempteming to code it on some more devices for fun such as the iphone 4 the iphone 4s the iphone 5c and my iphone 6 plus runing ios 10 its not the same one that i originaly codded this site on im also going to try coding it on the ipad 2 and FINAL of all THE ipad 1st Generation from 2010 i own 2 of them one dented up one and one not as dented one both are jailbroken with cydia nad both work fine there also both 16gb.

i enjoy collecting and repairing devices ive repaired lots of phones and laptop ive also repaired consoles i repair a lot of devices sadly i dont always film repairs as it is distracting and i need to consentrate when repairing devices i have a big phone and etc collection. i also like to flip and repair devices with my buisness partner bentley. i also do phone trades and or electronic trades with others.
the barxton838 youtube channel isnt the same channel you see today before the current braxton838 channel there was another one that got deleted for unkown reasons ive always followed the rules on youtube and thats what happend to the original one other than i was thinking about quiting as i had lost my channel but i didnt i made a new one in 2023 the one you see today and it has done better than ever as of right now august 28 2025 it has 140 subs and 50000 views witch i amazing as of recently i started more socail media acounts for the youtube channel. where does the braxton838 name come from the name is my xbox user name there was no reason of that name but when i made it i liked it and i still like the braxton838 name. why do i use the xbx 360 dog pfp well i use it as thats my xbox profile picture its also a cool profile pricture it stands out in my opion. still even tho my first console was the ps3 super slim and the wii u the ask why the xbox 360 profile picture well i just like the profile picture and im not changing it anytime soon.
one random but kinda stupid thing ive done was in a science class i had we were doing somthing were you drop somthing on old crackers and the crackers were over 7 years old maybe 5 years old but they were stale and in my mind i though what if i ate one what would happen so guess what i did you probally allready know ofcourse i ate a small peice and it tasted like chemicals it was also very stale but other than i mean not everyday do you get a chance to try a 5 year old saltine cracker so i tried it other than we were told not to eat the crackers but yeah thats the story of when i ate a 5 year old saltine cracker.
have you ever heard the saying play stupid games win stupid prizes well i may be good with electronics but somtimes i do stupid things that could of been avoidable but somtimes those stupid things pay out or work out for me basicly changes it self in play stupid games win good prizes ive done so many stupid things an 99% of the time it soes not work but there that 1% chance that it some how works and is good. other than heres a story a long time ago on my first phone the iphone 4 this was like in 2019 i saw that somthing was stuck in the notch and me being the stupid little kid that i was i took a butter knife to the notch of the phone to try to get it out the idea was it would get the thing out of the notch but it got stuck under a bit of glass and when i pulled it up the screen exploded at the top luckily the phone still worked but it was now shatered very bad luckily the thing came out of the notch so i guess it worked a bit but it still went wrong so by fixing one problem i created another problem other than i still look back at that and think how stupid it was to do that but now i find it as a funny story and now im sharing it with you.
i had 2 first consoles both holding a big part of being my first console those 2 consoles were the ps3 super slim and the wii u now one thing im gonna bring up is many people hated the wii u but i love the wii u sadly i dont have mine anymore but its almost the samse as the 3ds and 2ds consoles but i used to play my wii u so much i loved that thing i also dont have my original ps3 story goes that i got home one day and my dad told me it had the yellow light of death or somthing about same as the xbox 360s issue but sadly we got rid of it but i played so many games on it one of my first times playing minecraft was on the ps3 and wii u i owned it for both it was fun i remember watching youtube on the wii u i loved that thing i also used to play gta on the ps3 when i was younger but all i would do is crash cars and coustomize them i played gta 5 for that reason for a hot mineute but now i have beamng drive so i can do what i want with better crash physics and mods but i remeber playing the nintendo map that comes with minecraft on the wii u i loved that map and then on my ps3 i played a few of the dlc maps on minecraft but i mainly would build in the superflat world i also remember playing the old toutorial world before the curent one i miss that world i also rember two games very well that i liked on the wii u there was this one snoopy platformer that i liked and on the ps3 there was another game like that but for duck tales that ps3 lasted a long time i do rember a long time ago when it was getting older before it broke i would have to hit or shake it for it to boot up because somtimes it showed not life but that would fix it for some reason but it was a good console and really shaped alot of the games i play today same thing for the wii u.
the first windows i remember using for the most part is windows 7 i remember owning an old sony viao laptop that iused to borrow from my mom it was a loud little laptop but it was the my first intro into computers and windows that was also the first computer i played roblox on i rember playing get crushed by a speading wall and bee swarm on there i also remember when i would boot the laptop up it would sound like a printer printing or a car trying to start it was very loud that laptop was also the first computer i got a blue screen of death on it happened while i was trying to play a movie on there it just froze and then all the sudden blue screen but the laptop was fine i sadly dont have that laptop anymore but it was a good laptop just recently my freind traded me an old dell optiplex from 2005 running windows xp and yesterday september 24 2025 i got a random blue screen on there but the computer is fine im curently playing random games on it like simpsons hit and run and half-life 1
every here and there ill have a two week or so phase of playing a game or doing somthing same thing happens for this website every here and there i go on a 1 - 2 week phase editing the site and adding more so i dont update it much but when the 2 week phase kicks in i update the this site like crazy other than ive had a lot of 2 week phases involving games like minecraft fallout and etc.
today when i was in my computer class me and my freind bobby watched a 5 hour gameplay video of somone playing lego batman 2 it was very fun only thing i realized is in the game lex luther get mad every time he sees a car or automobile he kept shooting every single one and destroying it so i dont know why he does not like automobiles. but yeah heres a story a long time ago when i have a wii u i used to have a game called lego demesnsions i dont rember much about it any more but watching the gameplay of lego batman 2 really brought some memories back because the gameplay was simuler i rember really liking that game and there being a lot of charecters in it one thing is there used to be a pag and you would put the charecter and the speacial peice on and they would come to the game it was fun and mater afact i still find those little pads for those charecters in my legos to this day. the old lego games are fun ive played a lot of them like lego indiana jones xbox 360 lego star wars on mobile and lego starwars the trilogy on xbox 360 and 3ds lego batman 1 on the 3ds and lego batman 2 i loved those games and i thought i would share my love for those games other than im probally going to get them again and do a replay through of them as now i can actauly aprecaite the games for what they are now.

in todays story im going to explain why i like electronics so much lets go all the way back almost 7 or 8 years ago my dad gave me his old iphone 4 and put some games on it its the same iphone i broke a long time ago from another story but back to this story other than i was younger and in our house we had some old phones we had 2 iphone 3g phones that had blonged to my mom and dad one worked but was severely cracked and the other would boot loop the boot looping one was my dads and the cracked but working one was my moms and they were filled with old apps and more other than when i got my first phone something sparked and i really liked electronics and electronic repairs im still not sure what caused it but im happy it happened i love repairing and collecting phones and electronics
its story time again today im going to be sharing the story of my first electronic repairs so lets get into it in around the middle of 2022 i had an idea for the two iphone 3g phones from my last story no remember one boot loops and one is badly shattered no with that back to the story no the idea was to use the less cracked screen on the my dads iphone 3g on the broken one so i did it by my self i figured it out and it was successful for another one for the bootlooping one i decided it was a battery issue so i swapped batteries from one to my dads and guess what it worked and we got all the data back after years of that phone not working only bootlooping that was my first repairs otherthan now i can repair iphone 3g 3gs 5c and 4 and 4s phones really fast and really easy i can repair a lot of phones but those ones have my fastest times to repair them
today im going to be explaining my dog oggy who is a pug so now lets get into it in around 2017 when my brother was only about one we got a dog he was a puppy and what type of dog was it a pug my favourite dog we got a perfect pug and he's been the most awesome dog i remember him when he was little he was about the size of my hand now. Oggys birthday is august this year he turned 8 just last month as of typing this 8 does not seem old for a dog but its old in dog years. Where did the name oggy come from so when i was younger i used to watch this show called oggy and the cockroaches and thats why i named my pug oggy oggy. Since 2017 he has grown a lot he is still a small dog but hes 5x his original size and he now has a gray beard on him but he still is a very happy dog still very hyper
over the last many years ive had a lot of fish and BELIEVE IT OR NOT i had a gold fish named bob that lived for 5 years 5 WHOLE YEARS he got big and he was just a normal goldfish from petsmart or wherever we got him its been years i dont remember but sadly i had to move and we couldn't take him with us so i gave to a friend one week later he died but there is one thing he used to do this thing where he would flip over stop moving and fake to be dead but all we would have to do is run him under some water and he would be all good im not sure what was going on but i know it sound fishy but i know my parents were not just replacing him as 1. We knew we were going to move soon 2. This was when he was at the 5 year mark so he was getting older 3. I was there to watch him be revived every time but he was a good fish. For the next fish we have one i got for free from school so the 8th grade was doing bio stuff where this would mke and eco system and some of them used real fish one got left and somehow survived the teacher asked who wants him i said me and since i had been a good student she picked me to get him i rember going down to the office calling my mom and saying and i quote mom i won a fish now why did i say that its because i technically did out of everyone i was picked that fish was a little mino witch i also named bob in memory of bob. Next fish i had was a blue beta fish that i named moon they were a cool fish and he lived a while he was really cool and i miss him i just rember the day when he sadly died i was coming into my room and i was going to feed him but he was upside down so i grabbed him and gecked he was dead it was sad but i got over it as somtime you just have to move on with life and remember be happy that something could make you that happy always just keep going theres always something new.
