Hi, just finished my first HMDI socket replacement and all went well following your instructions. I found it was worth tinning the connector tabs before fitting the socket to ease soldering them to the board. Thank you.

It would be vastly easier and require a lot less heat if you were to solder-wick most of the existing stuff out after mixing with leaded solder Also, it seems safer and less labor to once the old port is out, to wick all the old solder away. clean, then re-flux the pads, and run over with leaded solder to tin them. Drop the new port on top, legs still empty, and hot-air the port until it snaps into place with the tinned pads This prep and new tinning of fresh leaded solder will minimize the chance that you end up with a bunch of loose connections as you aren't missing half the solder taken away on the old port, too. Lastly, hand-solder the legs now that the pins are connected. Check for loose connections and bridging

Yes you can do all these extra steps if you desire. I have found that adding solder back to the pads is enough to make the new ones stick just fine without using a solder wick. Tinning the legs of the new port is something that can be helpful.

Did you have to buy the flux separately from the rework station?

HI! I bought a broken xbox series s and I would like to try to fix it myself (before practicing on some cards to throw away), could you please recommend an air gun around $150? Something just right to start with. Thank you!

This is the one I have and it works very well (You can spend way more but I haven't found the need to). www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RPMR4Y4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

Would the gm chemical flux paste work to hot air the hdmi port off

As long as it is flux for electronics then it should work

Where’s the whole top end in that? I thought I missed something but that one clearly doesn’t have it, it holds the whole thing on in mine and I no longer know how to proceed after the 5 minutes mark

What do you mean by the top end? The fan assembly is on the top.
