#broken #iphone #repair
I think at this time you are the go-to on repair videos and it's been my favorite channel for years please don't disappear God bless you
Hello, I really appreciate that! Thank you very much for watching and commenting - I’m going to keep posting! God bless you too.
keep at it cant wait for the next video . 😄@@ststele
Just seen your content for the first time and I’m annoyed that it hasn’t come up way sooner, I’m going to have to go back and watch more,thanks
Glad you found me! I didn’t post for much of 2023 so it’s reasonable that my videos haven’t been popping up. Thanks for watching!
Nice work on that one, sometimes we get sideways and backwards with power connectors, that's life.. however the thing that would drive me absolutely nuts, even though you know that phone otherwise works perfectly, to not be able to go in after repair and do a complete systems function test, that would probably eat at me a little.. but it is what it is. Thanks for the awesome content Jason!
Yes a but maddening for sure. It’s WAY worse if the board would have been separated and reassembled. I would have stressed to the customer that the passcode is needed. Thanks 😊
Lovely 23 minutes avoided wasting time watching tv, thank you Jason!
Good to see you posting so regularly Jason. Now that Paul Daniels is in semi KZhead retirement 😂 your repair videos are greatly appreciated. Love your great sense of humour, it’s brand spanking new
Hey Pedro, thank you! Hopefully Paul comes back around to KZhead soon. I'm trying to post a brand spanking new video at least weekly but hopefully more! 🙂
wow! i am parking here. Really good quality of repair.
Love your videos, wouldn't try this at home myself. You are very meticulous and do an absolutely awesome quality work!
Great job as always Jason. The customer will be very pleased 👏👏
I hope so! Thank you
Subscribed many moons ago Love this channel 🏆🏆🏆🏆👍👍👍👍
Thank you!! 🙏🙂
Nice video! I leave the powerline caps out when blown in laptops i repair. I learned i lot from these videos
Good job Jason. I guessed nand rail short before you opened it as I think if it was a main rail short I don't think it would show any charge current
Thanks. Yep, that cap is very common on the 13. I'm usually delighted to find it and not even have to remove the battery!
Great job, I use to love working on small electronics till Osteoarthritis took over. Happy New Year. Really love your informative videos.
You’re a wizard! Thank you so much for the content! Keep up the awesome work 👍👍👍
Good Video. Because of you and some others i got into board level repair. Thanks for that. Keep up that good work
Thank you! I'm glad to help.
Another great repair Jason . nice to see you posting more often 👍
I’m trying not to go a week without posting! Hopefully post more than that though sometimes. Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@ststele looking forward to seeing them 👍
You do a great job with the video and your narrative!!! Thanks for posting!
I really appreciate the kind words! Thank you for watching & commenting.
Great repair Jason. It must be very difficult to keep steady hands. Thanks.
Depending on how much coffee I’ve had, some times can be tougher than others! Thank u
Heya, again a nice repair those flair infra red cameras are great have to get my self 1 or so
Your control of hot air is remarkable. I have two fine tip soldering irons and I use them to put on the 0402 SMT parts. That way I avoid the use of hot air which tends to do unpleasant things.
Really good work by here :) U also can test the cam while phone is already locked
Thanks :) Didn't even think of it!
nice video, great repair...
Thanks! 📱
Hi Jason, i was wondering if you have ever used cleaning swabs..Apparently they don't leave those annoying fibres behind when cleaning a board. Any way hope this new year is a great one for you and family. Thanks for all the great content so far. 👍👍
You could make some "brand spanking new" merch out of that line. You say it a lot. 😆
Another nice job thanks for sharing Jason. UV mask hardens faster if you also use a little bit of hotair 😉
i just got on and could not find you lol i found you eventually , i would not miss this for the world lol. 😄
Perfecto senior:)
great video. thanks alot.
Thank you! I really appreciate you watching & commenting.
Im fairly new to this, come from chisel irons to micro stuff, fixed 2 out of 4 iphones so far! Between u n North Fix, I’ve learnt so much. Can you update your equipment list as I want to know what Tweezers you used? Not metal looking?
My equipment links really need updated. Here are these tweezers: www.mobilesentrix.com/handmade-non-magnetic-stainless-tweezers-qianli Glad to have you watching!
@@ststele top banana! Thanks. 😊
Just found your channel and love your videos! Does the capacitor needs to be replaced? In another video you left it out, that confused me a bit 😅
Good one Jason 🖖✌️🖖✌️🖖✌️🖖🎄🎄🎄🎄✌️
Thank you!! 🙏🙂
Thank you so mutch i will look and thank you for your youtube i look a lot and very intresting to see your work.what is the green you cover with?
Tx sir
Smashing repair as always Jason 😀 Those smd capacitors are a pain in the ass, a lot of laptops suffer with random shorting. I dont know if the layer construction makes them brittle, Or is the soldering Temperature too high for some types. I know nothing, just in woffle mode lol.
Yes indeed! These ceramic caps keep us in business tho. Hehe 😂 thanks
hi congratulations for your videos!!!! what model is your ir thermal camera thanks
I say it along with you now. “Apple logo”. Lol Fighting a legion laptop atm. Its testing my patience!
I hope my Legion never craps out! That's what I'm using to record and edit most of these videos.
Well i found the short! Fried the new power management chip(original kaboom) .. but hey! Least my thermal cam caught the secondary chip heating up. Cant seem to id that chip. Might need to install board view software you use for the phones. Chip is unrecognizable and i don’t have a donor to save me this time.
The Magic is still there.
Thanks for your video. I did the diode test and the reading are close to yours. But using 4VDC on the test points, I see a short on the main power line. So I guess I’m stuck at this point.
Nice bro 👍👍👍👍
HI Jason , can you give me some infos about the graphical power meter that you use to check the current absorbtion ? Very thank you!
I have had the same eXact problem yesterday. Apprently iphone 13 are prone to this type of issue. Also I did not go straight to the thermal camera , but i split opened the board in 2, adding 2 h more of work ahahahah BTW Great video bud as always!!
Nice video Jason! Can you tell me what's the name of your usb charger please! Thank you!
Well done Jason, stress me when you remove components with a knife and fear for a ripped pad. How do you not rip the pad?
This is one of those components that the pads hardly ever go when removed this way. Sometimes the pads can be damaged like this. When it’s something where it’s a hard to access line like something where the only other connection is under the CPU, I wouldn’t dare to use this method! Thanks 🙏
Jason is related to Edward Scissorhands 🤣 it’s in his DNA
What is that usb ampmeter oscilliscope thing that you use? I need to get one of those.
Which thermal camera is your favorite SuperCam X or TS plus?
Where do you buy the 200 degrees sea air? 😳 😁 Great work, love your vids
Just wait until summer down here! The air is almost 200 degrees the whole time then lol! Thanks 😬 Just in case u were really asking about my hot air station: www.mobilesentrix.com/quick-861dw-hot-air-rework-station-quick-110v Can probably find it cheaper tho!
“Apple logo” Great repair I always cringe on screen removals
Thanks 🙂 Yah when these have never been opened it’s a slow process for me. Lots of heat and a little IPA. Have not managed to damage one this way.
@@ststele I love your screen jig
Great repair. Why don’t the pads get ripped off when you break off the broken cap?
Thank you! These hardly ever pull pads when doing it this way. I rake it off with a blade to protect NAND beside it. Once the old cap is gone, I can swap out the solder for something that melts much lower. Then the new cap can be soldered without risking nearby components. Some components have lines that don't have points all over the board though and would be really dangerous to do this way!
Never seen a uv active solder
Hi Mr STS, do you repair Samsung S7? It gets hot and keeps rebooting, not enough time to get pic and contacts off.
I've been looking for your charging tester for a while, and I don't seem to find it, can you please share the model? Thank you Sir !
I finally mentioned it at the beginning of a video I just posted. Sorry, this was sent to me by Union Repair but they no longer sell it. There should be something comparable on Amazon or from someplace else tho! I haven't tried any others though.
What thermal camera do you use? Im facing a similair issue with an iPhone 13 aswell, but cant diagnose further without schematics or someway of finding shorted/bad components
I don't know, if it was mentioned before, but what kind of flux are you using?Mine more liquid.
This is Chipquik SMD291
Wouldn't it be easier to use hot tweezers instead of the air for caps like that?
How do u know that heat hun heat will not pop up the underfill solder bulbs under the NAND ?
Only by staying way below the melting point of the alloy used under NAND. It’s why I broke the cap off with a blade, replaced the solder with something that melts much lower and then raised my temp a little to solder the replacement component. If I had removed that cap with hot air, not popping solder out around NAND would be tricky.
Please said me what kind of flux you use
What application is used to see the schematic?
This is ZXW tool in this video. Can be purchased from a handful of different places.
Where you get the software for phone and computer layout
This is ZXW tool in this video. Can buy from a handful of places. May need to use Google translate on camera mode to read Chinese and get through checkout process though!
just noticed u were posting again! first time seeing a 13 opened... so I see since apple lost the fight to stop people repairing they countered by making screens break easier when attempted to repair...
Oh, they've done so much more! Almost everything is serialized now and causes "Unknown Part" messages to pop-up after 3rd party repair. I'm seeing small shops go out of business quite a bit now. Apple may claim to support repair but they quite blatantly rig it against repair. Good to see you here in my comments!
@@ststele oh yeah that sucks... they are copying how cars do it but for "theft" concerns. but at least in a car the ecm, bcm and other modules have relearn procedures to learn the new serial number of a replaced device and if necessary recalibrate. however most of those parts are OEM like from junkyards, ebay or dealer not 3rd party.
How do you tell the polarity of those tiny electrolytics?
They're ceramic, no polarity.
@@aetch77 How out of date am I? Thanks?
Not "Rubbish"... Another job well done! Judging from your body language just a little longer processes then it should have been. Sometimes😡.
Hey, much appreciated! Yes too much time indeed. I normally fix this fault without even removing any stickers, let alone the whole board.
Slow down. It's nice to see you back and posting regularly but at this rate you'll post for a couple more weeks and then go on another 9 month hiatus.
Gonna try really hard to keep that from happening. A lot has changed since then although I'm sure the content still looks the same! I really appreciate that you understand the human in me. Thank you. 🙏
Another2023 success.
why after drop being short capcitor ? what timing or i don't know 🤔🤔
They can fail at random but also from physical impact. They’re ceramic so they crack/shatter. This cap is commonly cracked on the 13. I think it’s due to the location on the board and how the phone is assembled.
@@ststele oo okay maybe that why is fail
oh yeah we have apple logo😄😄😄😄
Oh sure you get all the easy repairs For new years lol Just joking.. What's the meter that you use ?
Yep! I’m just thrilled this board didn’t need separated. If it was a main short, the odds of needing separated are pretty high. This is a usb current meter that I got from union repair years ago. They don’t sell it anymore but surely there are similar models online. It’s just a usb current meter with graphing.
Sir I want to be your student I'm from Pakistan 😢
OUWWWWWW. it's hot! i love that :)
A refurbished original capacitor is better quality than new from Ali.
I thought people would be losing their minds on me for putting a part out of an iPhone 6 in a 13 by now.. LOL :D
@@ststele You could have gone to the nearest Apple store, surely they have that cap in stock.
12, 12pro, 13 the power squid is reversed. 12PM, 13P and 13PM is normal. Sorry, just commenting while watching the video :)
Mmmhmmmm, if I wasn't hunched over a tripod + clicking lights off and on, I would not have made such a silly mistake. LOL :-) Thank you for watching & commenting.
@@ststele interesting how that cap was cracked. I have noticed the 13 model ripping off all the pads in that inner corner area when dropped. I believe the board flexes a lot there. Also had lots of cases where the pads were ripped through the layers on 13s and the only sane thing was a core board swap. Happen several times, they get really bad when dropped, more like any other iphone model
ALL power connectors should be polarized, regardless, but....Apple
Hehehe butthead good job
juicy lol
Awesome rubbish!
Hehehe - Thank you 🙏
Hi jason, can you tell us what kind a flux are you using !? All i see around is the flux paste not like what you using Thx for the great videos 🤍🥀
Hey, thanks for the compliment! This is Chipquik SMD291.
