Alex, why don't you apply a split screen, at the top corner side for example, and show the multimeter / charger reader it will help us see and follow your steps as well. What do you think guys, is it good idea ?
Your videos got me interested in repairs. I tried watching other videos but they are so drawn out that I fall asleep.your videos I pay muck attention to and learn as much as I can. I also take notes . I appreciate the time you spend doing your videos please keep it up. Thank you.
Went from phone repair guru videos to yours so quick. Love your work so much. I actually started micro soldering from your videos, started on some abandoned iPad airs and actually got them all working. Hoping to start a little business off all the things the shop I currently work at cant do in the near future.
Well done Alex! Many of us ( not professionals) we have bought many tools "just for case".So many times I am staring my tools in my workshop and I am wondering "All this tools makes me professional?" Unfortunately no. Not because I don't have the skills to use them but because I don't know where to look to find the issue and I don't have the experience and the knowledge to make the right steps to find the problem. Conclusion, I am happy watching you fix devices in your videos,learning from you and I am proud for my tools collection they are sitting on my shelves.
My man, experience comes with practice, we all start from somewhere, at first we don't know what to do or what to look for, we spend hours trying to figure out something that may take a professional 5 minutes to fix, we mess things up, we brick stuff, but with every step, you're building knowledge, you're gaining experience, you just need to keep going and eventually you'll get there and gain enough experience that will make you a professional, you will still keep learning though, we never stop learning ..
encontrar el problema lleva muchas horas de estudios hasta la madrugada sentarse a analizar una placa secuencias de encendido etc lo vas a poder lograr obvio metele al estudio y todo llega saludos
Also I don't understand why some people even give videos like this a thumbs down .. Your gaining free knowledge be courteous and grateful... just my humble opinion... Thanks have a day...
Your expertise in micro soldering is beyond my comprehension. Unless people have tried to do a repair with larger components and not in awkward places, it's difficult to explain just how good you are. Then of course there is the smile ... Another great video.
I only have 1 solder iron tip.... Makes the job horribly exhausting. But I do strive to learn microsoldering, it's amazing. Love your videos! You're the reason behind all this craziness inspired.
"Skills" Cannot be stolen. Techniques can be studied and adapted BUT, Skills are LEARNED. The way you learn is to practice the techniques. THEN, you acquire the skills. Some people will NEVER acquire skills as they don't put in the practice needed. Everyday, Mr. Alex is repairing (practicing) his skill level which can only get better and better as he works. Some of us can and just have good abilities to see something and then mimic the technique. And then there are those that have to give up and send in their "disasters" to Mr. Alex to fix correctly. Beginning with good tools helps and makes it easier to practice the techniques. Once I was learning how to set off fireworks. I had a bunch of bottle rockets in a metal box with a lid to keep them safe. On this particular day, I had set up a bottle rocket in an empty Coco Cola bottle and lit the fuse. I had forgotten to close the metal box that I kept the other fireworks in when the rocket I had just ignited, flew out of the bottle backwards from where it was aimed. Yes, you guessed it. It landed right into my open box of fireworks setting them all off. I ran away as soon as I saw the rocket hit the metal box. This was an example of bad technique but in it's result, I sharpened my skills about how to safely use fireworks.
i been watching all your vids thx you you make that look so easy especially me who is the disabled one with one arm only working but get away around it after suffering a brain heammorrage etc maybe i should make a video one day ....
Right when you said (hopefully the customer didn't do any work on the lower part of the board) just above there are caps that look like they floated off and not in contact. They are sideways
Well done job' i wish i watched this video before i messed up with all my iPad Pro 12.9 1st & 2nd LCD digitizer and 2 of 10.5 LCD digitizer. Oh well, I've learned now and maybe I'll be better next time :). Oh well, thank you much much again for sharing.
From my own experience, stubborn solder like that is often the result of mixing two incompatible alloys of solder. It can be cleared out by diluting it with a large-ish quantity of leaded solder. (Just blob some leaded solder over it and let everything melt for a few seconds.) Also, 0402s are an absolute pain. The lowest I usually go in my own designs is 0603 but sometimes I just have no choice...
Yes mixing leaded with unleaded solder is common issue. One has to put leaded solder, then remove it to thoroughly remove any residue and restart soldering.
Hello sir., always a pleasure learning new and new tricks using use a meter to find and trouble shot the problem and your a great teacher even if you don’t think your teaching us ! But yes their is still a hand full of tech out their that still need more practice and yes I’m one of them but 99.9% of the time I don’t give up I try and if I can’t did it I have a good friend that’s all he does is micro work and won’t change a screen for only if it needs it like this repair you did ! Thank you master better then factory 🏭
Today was joining 2 MAX7219 led modules together. The pins were so close I bridged ACC to Ground. Plugged it in to my USB PORT and noticed a power warning message pop up, then there was a strange perfume coming from my Arduino Nano...fried. I had my Fluke 87III sitting on the bench and I didn't check the pins for continuity. Lesson learned. So small I didn't see the bridge...):
5:59 those tiny components were beaten up so many times that the last one waiting for his turn started run away probobly screaming "LET ME OUT! I don't wanna be part of this madness anymore!"
12:37 I was wright! One of those tiny components were hiding! Sneaky little bustard filter tryed to hide from Alex great experience in micro soldering!
How many boards I've messed up trying to replace a fpc or a blown filter , i would get frustrated halfway and give up This needs years of practice and skill. The components are so microscopic, as small as a needle tip .
"And the job is done"-"Awsome", along with the grin!
Love how happy you look when you fix other people’s mistakes.
12:35 - After all the components that go to the 9th dimension. We found one that came back.
He did not wanted to go, he likes that iPad 😂😂🤣🤣
I love it when professionals send it to the real professional to fix :)
but it is professional to know when to stop to not cause any more damage to be honest
Baba yaga
Impressive soldering, really steady hands with such small components!
This one is the master level soldering, hardest one in this channel i think.
The hardest would be the cpu
Cpu is a bga work, it has a special machine, but this one is pure precision hand work.
Alex, why don't you apply a split screen, at the top corner side for example, and show the multimeter / charger reader it will help us see and follow your steps as well.
What do you think guys, is it good idea ?
That's a great idea Nabil, hope Alex will consider your suggestion
I knew something else would be wrong when I say a 17 minute video. Great job on the repair.
Your videos got me interested in repairs. I tried watching other videos but they are so drawn out that I fall asleep.your videos I pay muck attention to and learn as much as I can. I also take notes . I appreciate the time you spend doing your videos please keep it up. Thank you.
one of the hallmarks of a true master is that he makes difficult tasks look easy....

That hand dexterity is magnificent even in microscopic installations your hand with the tweezers don’t shake
He got the surgeon hands. Job well done!!!
such a steady hands,
You're like a surgeon for electronics
I only have 1 solder iron tip....
Makes the job horribly exhausting. But I do strive to learn microsoldering, it's amazing. Love your videos! You're the reason behind all this craziness inspired.
You was born to do this job. Amazing!!
At least the customer was honest about the attempted repair makes a change awesome job as always
Definitely the best smd soldering school on UA-cam. This guy has magic hands!
Great to see the expert at work fix it ,well done
Well done! The look of satisfaction on your face after the repair was priceless. 👏
Excellent as always.
I can tell he's elite! One can discern the satisfaction he gets when he fixes these difficult electronic challenges. He loves his job most definitely.
your handling skills are really impresive.
learning from the pro!
This guy is just a frikkin wizard. Bravo
Another one repaired correctly and customer will be very happy. Great job my amigo!
Power of the flux. Lots of it. This should be one of the hardest problems to my opinion. Good job!
True professional at work
You're amazing Alex!
I am stealing these expert skills and using them as my own.
nothing wrong with it we all where beginners somewhere in life where we stole skills
"Skills" Cannot be stolen. Techniques can be studied and adapted BUT, Skills are LEARNED. The way you learn is to practice the techniques.

Some people will NEVER acquire skills as they don't put in the practice needed.

Thank you. Good luck and best wishes to you and yours. Cheers! 😊 👍
Someone definitely learned something.
i been watching all your vids thx you you make that look so easy especially me who is the disabled one with one arm only working but get away around it after suffering a brain heammorrage etc maybe i should make a video one day ....

Wow ... here is another saved device 🥰
Excuse me but you are not a technician, you are a tremendous microsurgeon of equipment and plates my regards, you are the best
Wonderful job

No that’s what you call experience nice work👍
Hello brother am from mauritius I look your repair video you are a great technician brother your video helpe full ❤️
Good job again Alex

Those are tiny components 😬😬. Great job Alex! 🎉
Customer should have learned many things from this fix ,it will boost his confidence and probably never make such mess in future repairs.
I want to have that level of hope that the guy had by sending this devece for repair
Good job
Good work sir. Great identifying.
absolute brilliant love watching these videos

Nice job once again. Apple don't like people trying to repair them so they make it difficult. Hope customer learnt the lesson and so did all of us.
Pure Art ! *,*
Nice job.you are legend for sure 👌
The smile is priceless...
great job again 👍
9:03 I'm surely not the only one who heard the voice of the narrator from Spongebob when I read that "A few moments later".
skill is worthless without good tools, and he has both, perfect
