      Agreed, the joy of fixing stuff is clear for all to see. I would only disagree in that he didn't get lucky, he never does, it's his methodical approach that reaps rewards.

  • @grabo454

    I think that liquid damage was old and the drop likely knocked a ball loose in the area because of the weakened joints. Good call on the reflow! I also would bet that some moisture trapped in the IC caused it to blow it's ass out when hitting it with hot air. I have baked liquid damaged boards before rework that had chips I couldn't easily replace. Thanks for the video, very interesting one. I love following along troubleshooting with you. Becoming less of a challenge sometimes, maybe I am learning a thing or two!

    The phone companies really do their best to make the phones closed and unrepairable - still though, not water proof. Good job, Alex - the data are so often priceless for the customers! 🙂

    People should learn to use Google/apple cloud services to keep their data continuously backed up.

    I used to look after the estate of Blackberry devices for a large corporate. Lost count of the number of times a repair came in with "It just stopped working" tag, only to crack it open and all 3 water indicators to be red. One client even admitted eventually that their device got dropped into a pint of beer whilst drunk.

    Alex a nice iidea. If you took and printed 4"x4" inch before and after screen shots of the repair site. To mail back with customers items. That would remove all doubt and 4 sure boost your customer ratings even more.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😉👍Plus it would be another record of the repair.

Can you please talk about university and the impact it had on your life? specially in electrical engineering as it's the major that i'm studying, and it's my first year. I would really love to know your opinion and i'm sure other will also. I really got interested in board repairs with your videos! thank you

      I would what he does is atypical of a an engineer with a degree. The majority of us end up working for a major corporation doing complex developments in a highly bureaucratic environment. It can be really satisfying but this work he does is usually just something us engineers are jealous of. I'm in aerospace though so maybe it's different in other fields
