we need more of james hijacking wade's desk
I’d love both of them smushed at the one desk together.
They've done that!@@mythicalexplorer7846
@@mythicalexplorer7846already happened mate
Omg I didn't know dankpods has a name!
@@mythicalexplorer7846they did that a couple of years ago
It's amazing seeing an apple product that isn't a nightmare to service. Two screws and she pops open, incredible.
with a pull tab for the battery, even. The designers knew that at some point someone will need to open it to not just throw away a working phone with a dead battery. Kinda sad to see how they gave up on that
That was the only thing easy to do on that phone. To replace the screen, you had to nearly take the whole thing apart. The screen was locked in for the bottom. The truly best iPhone to service was the 5c. I did phone repair around this time and I could be in and out with a new screen and battery in about 7 minutes. A 4 or 4s took nearly an hour for the same type of work.
actually genuinely surprised me
have you ever tried a screen replacement on these things? its a pain in the ass.
i know haha, if you sneeze while taking a twelve screen up it'll break lol
Today James displays his ultimate talent: the ability to touch the top of the desk without disturbing the PKCells (OH MY PKCELL!)
I actually WANTED to hear James say it!
"Oh his PKCELLS!!!"
Or maybe he just got lucky... this time
@@IgorSantander262 "Oh! Not the PKCells..."
Nice to see James do a follow-up.
Such a silly little goof you got here James, truly a comical little prank you’ve committed
silly goofy boy
I pronounce it to be the most whimsical jape of the season!
my old 2011 macbook pro still going strong, a few screws on the bottom and its all replaceable
Breaking and entering and trespassing to mess with a man's nugget, what a scamp
I thought James keeping every screen he’d ever replaced would be the craziest part of the video and then he just sticks his bare hand into a box of broken glass
Did you SEE those hands? Thems' mechanic hands!
He could wash those hands in an active volcano and be like "That's a bit hot mate"@@HowManyHintsDoYouNeed
His hands' covered in calluses, I doubt he could feel anything in his fingers.
@@IntegerOfDoomthats just normal aussie activities
I know. A box that size could almost hold a spider the size of a box of smashed up handshreddy glass.
Now this is a heck of a crossover. Maybe one day DankPods will have an episode with a red desk in exchange.
I want to imagine wade didn't give him a key so he jury-rigged an automatic lockpick
Yeah he probably made a lock pick out of like old wireing a motor and a disk tray of a original PlayStation
Frank let him in
Well....he does work at the warehouse. So he most likely has a key. Do remember wades desk is in the warehouse too.
Don't you mean the WadeHouse?
james is the australian lock picking lawyer (among many other things)
As part Australian I can confirm this is a certified moment in Australia history.
same
as a full Australian I can confirm that also
😂 Absolutely love these two. Dynamic duo.
As a guy who has never seen a single Australian in his entire life, I can confirm that too
An Australian Heritage Moment
It's so nice of James to let Wade borrow his set for Dankpods
UMMMMM It's wade's desk And house
@@Imjames12356ehhh, i think your wrong 🤔🤔🤔
@@TeazTwat
i forgot it's actually wade's Warehouse i Watch dankpods garbage time and The drum thing
@@Imjames12356 oh you sure? I think it's James?
@@Imjames12356the desk is in wades warehouse which james probably does have a key to since wade basically hired james
As an Australian i can confirm, this is the kind of thing we just do to each other for giggles
Not sure I've ever seen a crossover where only one party is present! This was very sweet.
The Ultimate Crossover, now for Dankpods to take over James' set
he opens a MP3 on james set
@@EthanWolfHarris no he has to do what james dus and fix a gaming thing
@@davidtaylor-iw9kh he gotta do a portable megadrive
I like to think that Wade is sitting behind James quietly critiquing him
He was in Canada for LTX lol
@@Games_for_James "was". Does that mean he's back?
@@user-dingus-dingus Yes.
@@Games_for_Jamesvery unfortunate timing
Something to remember, Siri has to be connected to the internet. It used to be great and ACTUALLY interactive. Over the years, they dumbed it down for the same reasons macOS got less and less for professional users… really bad. So the servers of that version are probably just redirecting to the selected search engine in the settings.
I remember you could ask Siri the best place to hide a body, and it was connected to Wolfram Alpha for mathematics calculations too.
Nearly all of the services in iOS 6 don't work anymore aside from maps ironically. Siri used to be able to tell you the weather without redirecting and it used to do calculations using a web plugin from WolframAlpha, but those don't work anymore.
They did the same with Google's Assistant. It's so fucking annoying to have these things, which are literally there to respond to voice commands, be unable to respond to as many because "the feature wasn't used enough". Wtf just leave it in for the people who DO use it.
@@oxymoron02My Google assistant stopped understanding what a lamp is.
Now my "SmArT" lights are dumber than the ones with a normal switch.
@@oxymoron02reminds me of recent googlw image search. They removed many features of search by image, and trying to promote google lens.
It feels so weird seeing the set and not an angry Australian man, but I like this Smart n’ collected Australian man just as much
I'm convinced every Australian is just a pair of hands
The hijack was perfect, there was even a pet moment at the end!
James on the dankpods desk is just... Amazing!
Hes even fixing an iphone!
Seeing James at wades desk is absolutely surreal
but..... _we never actually saw James_
Wade is so lucky to have a pal like you James. You are awesome man, keep it up with this great content.
I'm so happy you got that iPhone fixed for him. He's gonna have to give us a round 2
Be interesting to potentially see you fix more of his broken boys
Broken boys? He's James, not Geppetto lol
Him just casually unscrewing the backplate to replace the battery made me think of better times man
I like to think that James did this without talking to Wade first as a surprise. Plus that magnet trick is awesome. James is awesome. Forget love, find the James in your life.
I think I'll just stick to trying to become the James in my life.
I hope when Wade gets back, he now does his full exploration of the phone. Thank you for yet again saving his bacon with your techno wizardry!
I used an iPhone 4s from the year they came out until the end of 2021. During that time the phone was smashed, bent and several times submerged in water but I always was able to fix it easily and cheaply with parts from other 4s's that were broken in different ways, it was actually a very fun device to work on. I eventually had to upgrade as I needed to use some apps for work that couldn't run on old verions of IOS so I now have an iPhone 13 Mini and while it is a great phone, I still miss the smaller easy to one hand size of the 4s and of course the headphone jack.
I bought my iphone 4 as a plastic container full of bits. Previous owner tried to fix it and gave up. That phone lasted me ages.
I'm so glad that James could get his own channel. I'm loving the content!
talking like its hard to make a channel hahahaha.
@@Khuros If you have a full time job and would rather have a hobby when not working that isn't filming you talking about a hobby, spending more hours editing, then uploading and managing; yeah, it is kind of hard.
@@ClearComplexity cry more. thats not the point.
@@ClearComplexity bruh. Plenty of big you tubers work full time. Like Scott Manley who works at apple
everything ok at home? how's your relationship with your parents?@@Khuros
Wade destroys things, James fixes them.
Truly, a match made for a sitcom.
You hijacked Wade's desk to repair his stuff now let him hijack your gaming room and let him attempt to repair something later
*destroy
Thatll be a long wait cuz i think james said he was overseas
@@L0NE1W0LF_ He was at LTX in Canada, if you are missing his dulcet tones: czcams.com/video/fOfGhGY1L5M/video.html
@@L0NE1W0LF_ he'll be back soon
@@user-dingus-dingus how do you know? Like legit question not sarcasm or anything like that
I imagine Dankpods is just playing the drums doing the background music while James does his stuff.
When Wade started running into problems in his video I was getting really anxious knowing how easy it is to remove the back plate and install a new battery. Thank you for alleviating my itch! 😅I repaired a handful of these a few months ago as I'm learning to become a computer and mobile repair technician at my job. My father had a few of these lying around as back up phones. Some were water damaged and some had non-functioning buttons or batteries, so I transplanted a lot of parts just for the fun of it.
The excitement in your voice at the beginning, James 😂
brave of you to put your hand directly into a box full of broken glass
Mechanic hands 😂
4:43 it's incredibly meta to watch a video about a device on the exact device the video was made about
As a fellow repair (wo)man, that tip on leaving the magnet on the screwdriver is very accurate. I do that for ALL my screwdrivers, even if they're already magnetized. Great job James! I would love to see more repair tips from you as well as hijacking Wade's desk. You might also be able to repair all the dents on his ipad as well. I have a cool idea that you could do. Try to game, but on an E-Paper display. it would be cool to see you try that. Probably won't work, but I would LOVE to see it.
"for some reason i kept all the screens i remplaced" somehow is the most james sentence that has ever james
God bless you James, I love dank pods and have been on youtube for 10 years. The 4s video inspired me to make a full 30 min IOS 6 related video showing it off and what not. Thank you for tying up the lose end of the last dank pods video. IOS 6 is such fun to use but the app store got shut down which is a big bummer.
This would actually be a hilarious thing to keep doing. Wade gets a dud, James tries to fix it. That would be great to watch
This was absoluely brilliant! Almost thought it was going to be a random parody video until I saw it was from the man, the myth, the legend, the James! Also glad the 4S just needed a new battery
James is so relaxed and mild mannered
That tip about using a magnet to conduct the magnetism down the screwdriver is fantastic
It's crazy how Wade (who is just two hands and a voice) has a best friend (who is also two hands and a voice) who has graced his presence infront of a nugget-Phone S.
Honestly James and Wade are my favorite Aussie Duo
love to see james starting to do what wade did when he first started his channel except with iphones instead. we should call this channel “dankphones” now
We welcome you with open arms, JamesFix
time to start an aussie youtuber cinematic universe where every aussie youtuber uses the set of another like a game of roulette
Thank you James! We appreciate your hard work! :)
It's very kind of you to give your friends channel some exposure ❤
Lovely stuff, we need more of James' videos at the DankPods desk :D
And good job of being able to get the iPhone 4S working! The iPhone 4S was the last device to use the 30-pin connector, with the iPhone 5 using Lightning. It was also the last device to only support 3G; the iPhone 5 supported basic 4G LTE and the iPhone 5C/5S expanded on this.
can i have premum
@@chazzadooiusus haha if I had a £1 for every time someone asked me for Premium, I would be able to afford at least a years subscription myself 😅
LMAO@@TheSpotify95
The world needs more people like you two
great to see you fixing an unknown CZcamsr’s stuff ☺️
He’s done it! He’s hit 100K way to go James!
Thanks!!
nice
Huh, never knew it was just battery problem and then it's fixed instantly lol.
Great fix, James. 😁
As silly as it sounds, this really cheered me up. Thanks James
Can we get a video that is just 3 minutes long of just your cats? They are all so cute!
Congrats on 100k man!
such a trip seeing dank style visuals with james style music and content. super trippy, i love it
0:43 ah! Don't you miss the days when smartphone repair was really that simple?! I sure do.
all Australians share the one desk in rotation
This feels like a parallel universe where James created Dankpods for device repairs
Would love to see you try to repair everything Wade 1 grits.
hey im surprised he hasnt done a dank pods video on the fixediphone yet where he at his gaming channel is also 1 month ago just checking heok ?
He went to LTX in canada
@@Games_for_James ohhh
Don’t tell dank 😂
i love how we even got a creature at the end of the video to complete the vibe
I wish I would have discovered your channel a year from now so there would be more content to see! Lol, Not exactly sure why, but your videos are right up my alley! I binge watched all.
0:47 - seriously? Opening up an iPhone 4S is THAT easy?
Absolutely it is
Happy 100000 subs bravo
Thanks!!
You made my day
@@ognjenstojanovic9322 I’m glad I could do that for you :)
Early congratulations on 100K!! This channel is proper sick man, i love your videos, here's to many more
Siri couldn't comprehend your deep questions and got lost in thought.
glad ur keeping good eyes on the desk n warehouse while wade was away
n nice little video james
cheers 😁💜
man, i needed this.
thanks james
My boy. I'm here FOR the mechanic hands, no need to apologize.
Lol, I adore the energy in this one, my dude!
Thanks james for creating a classic Dankpods video!
New dankpods looks amazing!
I love how the video started off with the classic mischievous aussi chuckle!
This is really impressive, James!!
Good job giving siri an existential crisis.
This is a fun video, love to see you hijacking Dank's desk more xD
Speaks volumes when the older phone is more repairable than its newer generations.
Nice work, James! I noticed that when I use aftermarket mains-to-usb chargers on my iPhone the touchscreen was all wonky, so it was a good idea to start with the battery replacement and try the touchscreen.
I love talkative cats!
That was a fun one.
Specially the hijack.
The tape at the end was perfection.
Love your content James!
I've been compulsively checking the comments to see when Wade finds out 😂
That was so great haha. As someone that had a 4 and 4S this was a nice lil trip down memory lane
Seeing James and not Wade at the desk is wild and we need more of it
As soon as you mentioned phone repair I could hear "Hey everyone, how's it goin'" in my head
happy 100k subs james!
The gentlest treatment the desk has ever experienced.
this was the best. thank you james
the cat at the end always gets me
James is an absolute legend
Wade Is happy to have a friend like you! Back when batteries on IPhone were so easy to change!
Congrats on 100k!!!
Thank you!!
not hearing complaints about sony's catchy names, and screaming "AAAA" from this desk, as well as the video not ending with frank is incredibly jarring
We need more of this!
Nice to see some Dankpods content after a while especially when hes still on his break
Alternate universe Dankpods seems a little less unhinged.
Also congrats on almost reaching 100k James.
Damn that magnet trick is neat as hell
Thank you James you're a legend
