Alex, you could always charge for a repair attempt before even looking at the board, this way you get paid either way. If the issue is fixed, bill for the remining balance. As always fantastic work and you make it look so easy!
@8:12 "Distributor of the flux" we also sell "flux capacitors" :)
Nice work alex. It seems you work like on an assembly line...one board after another. Thank you for the video. Really great.
So often it sounds like that you have to protect yourself and the work that you do, but you don't have to, rules are rules and the people who wants their item repaired knows that.
Great job

Alex, for the Switch Lite fix, upon physical inspection I noticed that you might have missed the 150K resistor sitting right behind the daughterboard connector, which is next to the battery plug you've replaced. It's missing.
At 11:30 in right corner?
nice catch
That's unpopulated by default, you can tell by the color of the pads, if they're golden it's empty by default, if it's silver and pointy something has been removed by force, if it's silver and smooth it's either desoldered or empty by default but with solder pads, empty by default ones are usually too perfect to be mistaken with a desoldered component.
Watching you using the solder wick is like seeing art. So satisfying to look the wick sucked lead like a vampire...
I loved seeing your video everyday, it's my inspiration...
Thank you Alex,
Love from Indonesia
Thank you for explaining why you use lo-melt solder onto top of un-leaded solder - makes sense as you dont want to use hot air to damage components
Wish you and your loved ones a happy bayram
thanks for answering my question from earlier in this video.
I’m going to buy some cause that cleans up way better than mine.
Good job mate.
I've done a few of those type C connectors on switches before, and they're not a beginner friendly job. The one thing I always do differently is not to put leaded/low melt solder on the back row of pins when removing the old connector. This way, I find that when they eventually melt, the hidden row will be close to melting too and I'm less likely to attempt to pull the connector up when 1 or 2 of the inner pads are still stuck and rip them as a result. But each to their own.
Another great video. What is that meter beside your DMM? I have a signal generator that looks basically like that. I have never seen you use it.
20:00. Big Boss is the man. He is the boss of all bosses !!! 👍👍👍
كل عام ونتا و الأهل ألف خير عيدكم مبارك
Brilliant job on the connector. It would have taken an unskilled guy, hours and he might have even ripped the pads.
@Repair Wins You're already halfway there for being honest and trying to learn by looking at someone else. Many other repair guys would not even admit their mistakes, even to their own selves and open up any device, knowing full well that they will damage it. They will wreck the device further and still ask for money like ransom. I hate such losers. It makes good people look bad. In general, the idea that these people are essentially promoting is not very different from the likes of big name companies that promote replacement over repair, or deincentivise repair.
@@SauvikRoy ok
The fumes are the best part
While you press and hold the chip, is it not possible that the excess solder shorts the connections under. How are you so sure that they don't?
Exactly. You should NEVER push on a balled chip. you place, nudge, and it will sit it place on its own.
I don't think that particular chip was balled if we are talking about the same thing.
@@mrmedoali4200 That wasn't a BGA.
@@edwardgalvan5412 Oh no I'm talking like in general and referring to balled BGA chips
@@azharuddin2023 Yes I know that. I was just speaking in general and referring to balled/reballed BGA chips and not this particular chip in the video.
What components are you most concerned about when using hot air?
Aluminum caps
@@bogotstogoskiing thanks
The connector it's broken inside. Just like me. I can feel you, little shiny fella.
Awesome job bro keep rocking bro 👍👍👍
Charging for repair attempts with keeping the device as an alternative is pretty fair.
If it can't be repaired, most of the time it is of little value to the customer anyway.
Eid Mubarak to you and your family brother
Hi, I'm from Brazil, I really like your videos, I would like to know the microscope model and the set of lenses you use!
A friend who lives in Texas said that in the US they don't fix computer equipment, but watching your videos I noticed that this is not true! You do really nice services just like I do here in Rio de Janeiro.
A big hug and congratulations on the repairs! And the love you have for your work is amazing!
Thanks!
look at the description bar under the video......the link with the exact microscope and lenses he use is right there
Hi Alex are you using low melt solder to solder the new connector on the Board?
Best regards from Germany
at 9.30 i wonder if you could use some cone shape pieces of metal to go in them holes to help align it easyier for us novices
Alex the great!
For some it may not even be a matter of data. I love my machines. That's it.
Big boss seems to be a wizard :D
What heat is your hot air set at after you apply low melt solder?
Yes, I was curious about that too.
Do you send the flux to Brazil?
Can you buy switch lite usb c ports yet? For some reason I can't find them, the normal switch USB c ports don't fit comfortably.
I replaced the left control stick and now L3 is not responding when I click down, i had trouble getting a stripped screw when taking it apart, could scratching the board affect L3?
happy aid brother
Exilent... 👌
Solder is your friend
Good solder is your brother
Can you tell me who is distributor of antech fkux in asia
Nice video
Battery may be too low?
Diode retroeclairage ?
"Not even a bulldozer can remove this connector frm the board now" should be your next T-Shirt :-)
Eid mobark my bro
SO professional,but have you consider using more professional bga machine instead of hot air gun
Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Do you replace big chip??? I am replace, I need job.
I like your video
Wow nice nice flex from m tech 👍

عيدكم مبارك 🐏🐏🍖🍗🍢🥩
probably cost more to send it in get repaired and For return shipping than getting a new or refurbished one
Hello every one and welcome in new repair attempt video!
عيدكم مبارك وكل عام وانتم بخير تقبل الله منا ومنكم صالح الاعمال
How do you melt the solder but not melting the plastic??? 😮😮😮 15:20
I think because he applies hot air from the bottom of the board in this case
👍👍
What's that liquid you are using to solder?

Nice Vedio ☮️👍
original flux? why you syringes has no label?
Everytime I tried to solder a connectors with hot air , I failed by burning plastic
So sad
Are Switches just made poorly or are they just used so frequently that they break? Seems like alot of switch repairs
In my experience it usually comes down to kids don't know how to be gentle
Thx Alex for sharing your knowledge with us 😊.
Eid Moubarak for you and all the family 🌷 .
God bless you
Without flux, modern life on Earth would not be possible. 😏
@Milwaukee Mac Repair what are the advantages of that versus flux?
Nice repaire bro
عيد مبارك سعيد صديقي تقبل الله منا ومنكم و غفر الله لنا ولكم كل عام وانت بخير
Can i ask why not replace cpu if it is faulty like other chips
you can’t . encrypted data from emmc nand must match with the cpu .
@@StanzGamesJungle ohhh, thanks for declaring that

Is low melt different than 60/40?
Yes. It is completely different metal alloys. It's usually indium alloy.
Also 60/40 is for soldering components low melt solder is strictly for desoldering only
Eid mubarak ✨️ Alex ( hussain )
"double dose" 🤣. Gj.
"better than factory" and "a bulldozer could not pull it apart" ha-ha.
Hello from Romania!! If i buy flux..cand you send in Romania? And how much i need to pay?
Check web page. Its calculates price
Thx
عيد أضحى مبارك تقبل الله منا ومنكم و غفر الله لنا ولكم كل عام وانتم بخير
Maybee alex u should send big boss on a 2 week holiday, let u catchup on the backlog
عيدكم مبارك و سعيد أليكس تقبل الله منا ومنكم و غفر الله لنا ولكم كل عام وانتم بخير❤.
I wonder how many things are in the 9th dimension by now
My Nintendo switch is turning off after nintendo logo(3 seconds).do someone else is having this problem?
When you clean up flux from the board do you just use rubbing alcohol or is it something else?
Cotton swap called "q-tip" also
Recommend board cleaner liquid. Alcohol doesn't really work for me.
Yes, Isopropyl alcohol.
Yes, preferably 90% +

I didn't get recommendation of the video, I think CZcams is penalizing your account on the basis of lowered frequency of uploading. It might be that their weird algorithm doesn't like fluctuations in upload frequency or change of thematic in videos. Maybe you noticed a reduced view count / subscriber increase rate.
Can't let it escape to the 9th dementioun.
I know you don't really need to or anything, but I totally think you should do some soldering give aways

First. Have you found a house?
I'm buying the amtech flux from Moskau . Very satisfied! Amtech from Kiev is froud as expected.
Calling it low melt solder is confusing as it is really low melt alloy. Low melt alloy is not a solder...
Bet your fun at a party 😂
