    Joey is always so self deprecating while at the same time being one of the most talented micro solderers on UA-cam. Love this channel.

    31:00 it looks like when the chip lifted up when you tried to solder it down it left a ball behind roughly in the middle, so that first chip you replaced might be fine

    31:00 the 4th switch, the 1st wifi chip, it is okay, it’s just there’s a blob of solder in the motherboard when the wifi chip flies, i think the 1st wifi chip is okay.

    A tip on how to remove soldering balls on a chip is by cutting a soldering wick at a 45 degree angle to make it sharp and then with a heat gun heat up the the area and just tap the sharp tip of the wick to the solder ball and it will be sucked up into the soldering wick.

    Every time you say (the moment of truth) my heart nearly literally stops, however thank GOD you fixed those 3 even though they took about 3 hours to fix but it was totally worth it (for you "I mean they gave you a great practice" and 2nd you've managed to fix them) and that was lovely jobly :)

  • @PatrickHoodDaniel
    @PatrickHoodDaniel 5 місяців тому

    Is there really that much distrust out there that you have to say that this is the same board after putting on the chip? The times we live in. Beautifully Jubley video!!! Your reballing is so good. The crimson red unit is working because of good karma. 31:03 Is that a ball sitting on the pad located 8 across and 7 down? Don't throw that chip away!! Haha. Cracked up on the Gordan Ramsey skit. Those that didn't stay tuned missed a great laugh.

    All the tricks you know and the temperatures of the soldering station that you set, where did you learn that?

    Soldering noob here, I can barely tin a wire. Between 33:18 and 33:22 I noticed the 3 black things marked EV on the left and one on the bottom got very corroded. What are they and is that bad? And what happened to them? it it just a heat thing? What happened in between? Is it just an editing thing? I have a lot of questions lol.

    @Adam-lt4fx 5 місяців тому +1

    I never buy anything unless the profit margin is over 50% for lower cost items.. or for more expensive items I will purchase it if the potential profit will cover me completely replacing a part if I fail to repair it.. i.e. if the problem is a backlight issue with a laptop, I am only working on it if the price is low enough that I could buy a whole new display and still profit should everything go bad..

    Figured I'd ask again in case you missed the first one. Why are some chips with solder balls not required to get reball and others are. Genuine question because I see some that look no different but one needs reball and the other gets solder on the chip and MB

    Joey have you got 80% off selling fees? When you get that offer bulk list loads of test listings and then just edit them when you have a device to sell. The listing stays at 80% off until it sells or you end it.

    I sold my autistic son's turquoise nintendo switch lite ages ago. It had a crack near the charger port and the right bumper didn't work properly. It was sold for £50 to someone who bought Nintendo switches to sell on. Makes you wonder if it is the same one. He would play whilst charging and fall asleep with it charging in his bed. Until one day it didn't charge anymore and it died. He did claim the audio jack didn't work as well but his headphones were broken (again had them in his bed - he's like a magpie)
    if you ever get it working I assume it would have his account details. would be interesting.

      Demand for broken stuff is high enough to drive prices up - largely due to the success of channels like this inspiring more people to try their hand at electronics repair. It's very difficult to find realistically priced faulty gear on the main marketplaces now.
