    Beautiful family. It is heartwarming to
    see a parent guiding a child and
    teaching that child to improve something
    in this world, and how to fix something
    that doesn't work. Thanks for the

    This is what i went to school for in 89; surface level computer repair. Still working with with computers, now a computer analyst (repair, tech, support, training) at a university. When surface mounted components started being used we thought there goes repairing our own stuff and it has been that was for many people. Now i can get the right tools again and start what i started.

  • @XSpImmaLion

    Jessa, I missed your "YAAY" when the iPad got fixed. xD
    Thanks to her, Rossman, iFixit and some other sources, instead of throwing away and buying a new one, I fixed my previous and my current phones after their screen broke. From scratch, little to no experience previous to it.
    Not exactly component level or water damage repair, but watching the videos had a demystifying effect that made me want to open things up, and try replacing them myself. Local shops didn't want to deal with them or charged way too much to be worth it.
    They reconnected me to my curiosity around electronic components that I had abandoned in my teens. It's something society needs. Beyond "just" the electronics trash issue, which is a big problem in itself, it's about learning at least a bit more how these things we use in a daily basis work, what those internal components are and do, if what corporations and companies are charging is fair, plus a bunch of other things that people need to understand for all sorts of low to high level decisions.

    I never knew Jessa had a video done about her job on here! I first heard about her from Louis Rossmann, who are both excellent people when it comes to fixing tiny electronics.
    I am all about being able to repair and fix things themselves, especially now that technology becomes more and more important to us and is more widely accessible. Why should that mean that people shouldn’t learn how their devices work and how to troubleshoot them? Learning to diagnose and then microsolder boards to fix them is of great educational value, and I wish it was being taught more widely. For me, going to a board repair school is impossible as there are just none around. I lean from and fix micro electronics all the time in my tiny room, having bought most necessary equipment to do microsoldering. As of now I don’t even have a microscope and managed to do most repairs of these kinds.
    I wish this topic would get more attention overall

And, i feel the same way about giving someone their photos back of their kids being born, weddings, graduation pictures, and when they get their phone back and smile, then they put their passcode and opens, they jump. Then they open their photos app and they get quiet with they eyes starting to water, thats payment enough to me. Thats better than money. Around where i live, just a cracked screen and they think they lost everything. I dont do board level repair, just screens and they start hugging me and throwing holy water on me.

    It is good to see people that are persevering at being component level electronics engineers.

    interesting concept, i run a computer repair business and iPhone screen repair is a huge part of my business. soldering a motherboard under a microscope is way out of my league tho. idk how beneficial it will be in the future because apple is always going to release new products and everyone's always going to want the latest and greatest.

    • @Ryan-wx8of
      @Ryan-wx8of 7 років тому +5

      I'm note sure about that, right now people do because it's become a social status thing to always have the latest phones. But it's kind of stupid, innovation has slowed to a crawl and new phones are pretty similar to old ones. The momentum from so many years of innovation might take awhile to run out but the average lifespan of a phone is already increasing and I think that it will continue to do so until there are some serious breakthroughs in consumer technology.

    • @YoungHudge
      @YoungHudge 7 років тому +1

      Ryan R true but Apples not gonna just not make a new iPhone for any long periods of time. They have new features planned out years ahead I assume. They've got breakthrough features in the vault guaranteed. The majority of apple consumers are always gonna want the newest iPhone while the rest will just carry around a 6 for 5 years.

    I thought I would smuggly present why this is a bad idea by pointing out the cost of her tools and ruling it dumb BUT, these are not specialized tools. Found a microscope similar to hers (that does not output to screen) for about $50 and the SMD tweezers for $30. Guess i've been bred into this "just replace it" mindset so common in electronics repair...
    Came here to say I am glad someone is (essentially) pioneering a new industry of electronic repair.

    I used to work in a warehouse full of iPhones needing to be fixed and sold in T-Mobile as refurbish device. I loved it! benefits are definitely A1. But i just hate how they paying Cell phone Tech's 8-10$ an hour while having the battery explode in your face (sometimes). I'm a level II tech they pay 11-15 an hour still isn't enough.. I loved it. The company is very diverse and it owns 4 buildings around the logistics strip

    Issue is with devices is mostly that they get outdated too quickly and repairing them is far more expensive then repairing. Although apple is a ripoff and they are actually worth fixing, but they are the only ones worth fixing because they are so overly priced.
    But most other devices parts and components are dollars to replace the broken part rather then spending hours of labor into fixing it.

    • @paulhendrix8599
      @paulhendrix8599 7 років тому +1

      Not if the broken part is the mainboard ... but yeah, Apple are the only company people invest im fixing devices of, which does frustrate me a lot.

    • @KaedeIshimora
      @KaedeIshimora 7 років тому +1

      Yeah, agreed. one of the parts on my Old Android cost more than buying the whole device again. at that rate I would just get the next iteration of the device.
      (the charger port was bad and ruined the board, but the older generation of the SG's were all one piece, not separated.. so when you wanted to replace it, you'd pretty much have to buy the whole phones innards.

    Very similar to the cottage industry of watch repairers in antiquity - work was usually done by women and children who had smaller hands and better eyesight. They didn't learn the scientific and mechanical intricacies of watch making from scratch but rather what the common faults were and how to fix them.

    Nice ! I’m following your video’s for several months now, they are very usefull in manny ways. The repairability of whatever is very important for the future. I’m a electronics bachelor in the the late 1980 begin 1990 and trying to pick up again my first love .. electronics and the repairing of it. My first project is a time capsule failing, i could fix it because i have 5 of them and so i was able to bring the working parts together .. :-DDD but microsoldering really bites me it won’t let go, you are doing a amazing good job !! I heard a dutchman in one of your video’s is he back in europe ?

    you know what i see?
    I see a business women who is successful at selling a skill and caught a tech noob hook line and sinker and they outputted bullshit like (1:46) "not even apple thought it could be repaired"
    What bullshit!
    ((edit) I will change the above statement a bit, she didnt feed them this bullshit , wired distorted what she said and then released this painful to watch video.
    what she is doing is great teaching others how to repair , but I maintain the stance that the real value is the schematics and basic electronic knowledge that anyone in electronics should understand but may not posses , I admit I don't not know the whole background to this, I am and was just pissed at another bullshit video by wired.)
    although I must admit , many of these repair shops including hers are so good at getting these schmucks to pay them to work for them!!

    All the electronic board level repair relies on the fact that most broken electronics have one or at most couple of broken components and everything else is in working order. But if there are multiple broken components or intermittent, hard to trace defects, it's really not worth the time to fix
