Another Nice repair video thanks Richard, no doubt the glue was an attempt to fix the crappy wiggling connectors. I use a rubber band around the handles of my long nose pliers to grip components and free up a hand - thanks again from New Zealand :)
I got mi box 4k, i used 12 volt adapter in it which made it to not power anymore, what could be the solution?
I got the same problem used uses the wrong adaptor and blew it up.couldnt find anyone to fix it...yet
Any update yet?...I just made same mistake.
Same did u get any solution?
@@miracletony7158 i gave it to mobile shop, he removed many components from it, its no more now, cant be repair
@@manud8665 dead forever
We’ve just returned from one of the best holidays we’ve been on, Los gigantes in Tenerife..good video
Yeah Los Gigantes is nice - we were there for new year, a few years
Wouldn't low melt solder make them come out much easier? I use it when removing any plastic based connectors.
I do have some of that ChipQuick low melt solder - though generally I just add leaded solder and it has much the same effect, but cheaper. Next time I have a similar problem I will try the ChipQuick and video the results.
With added Leaded 60-40 solder the first one came out pretty quick and easy and I am sure you will agree
The problem with the second was the superglue that someone had poured into the casing and I don't actually think low melt solder would have helped. In fact I think it was the high temperature from the hot air station that eventually did the job.
Actually I mentioned about the glue to the guy who brought these for repair and he said that it was he himself who put the superglue in! I didn't bother to ask why.
@@LearnElectronicsRepair I love the low melt. Most of the time it will stay soft long enough just from my soldering iron. Then I can pull the part right out or it just drops out. I get mine off Amazon but it is a generic brand that works just like ChipQuick at a much lower price. The glue thing is crazy. I wonder if acetone on a swab would have removed it without damaging the PCB mask? Thanks for responding. Just started watching your videos and really enjoy them.
Heya very nice repair love to see differant vlog's
Great video.X ten rtv allwinner plus. Pulled it apart found loose optical port light came on when I touched two of three pins soldering points. i didn't fix its still loose.Reset button was down hole marked as something else like audio used plastic gently to press and felt button thanks,nothing it display or tv but did the power insert method suggested. Mine never completes restart from menu just powers down. Seem best if I never turn off completely just short press power so its in stand by still connected to WiFi so phone app ZANK will detect and start it I have had many long dead periods. Did repeat and expect different outcomes until unverse took pity on my stupid method and several times its come back to life showing booting on its tiny screen after hourrs days or weeks of no luck. Power supply is perfect. It auto updated to Andriod 9 on first boot after WiFi years back. Its not rooted or shows as not using file management app that has ok reviews.I have no clue why it goes dead when it does usually seems after Turn off rather than stand by but it can happen if power goes out. I keep processes and recent apps clean using brush icon and clear all apps recent which comes up using rectangle with a v shape on top.That keeps slowing and other issues normaly requireing a reboot. dead intermittent boot issues seem worth plug unplug leave hdmi connection and power one day then leave disconnect everything the next. ruled out power supply. It would be in bin if not for this video, pulling it apart. I don't know why booted and if I should try reset again or rooting now its running. It needed unplug replug power to boot after it was ín standby and booting came on its little display most just have light. They save over a thousand$ on big screen TVs even my cheap smart tv doesn't have proper browser and one app.nTVbox units worth price when working. I would buy again, want to try preinstalled KODI, I can't set up in Aust using utube USA inf, looks like a great app, just can't get enough instructions for funtional add-ons required back end and stuff like that complicate setup & detects a remote then locks up so far. I want it though and I'd love to learn more? rooting unrooted box is it a good idea? appreciate any advice or info. Wishing to collect dead tv boxes power n cables check or swap out parts n cables.
I have two android TV boxes that are stuck with the red light on. How can you fix it?
Excellent work, keep it up 👍
👏
I have a problem where my tv box stuck on starting apps... when it's about to finish it restarts in a loop. I flashed many firmwares but still the same problem. I think it's a hardware problem but i have no idea what it may be ? Do you have any idea ?
Ah, the simple fixes.
@Mark Gilbert
Sometimes that is how it is - but there are beginners watching this channel who will learn from it. When I start a repair video I never know what the result is going to be. Some easy some hard and some I can't fix. The dead one could have been a buck controller or a dead ASIC. But that is the reality of it, and that is what I try to show. I'm not sure if many others are doing a similar thing but if so I would love to watch their videos.
ভাইয়া আপনার দোকানটা কোথায়
