The best part about this job is the smile we all have when the customer's equipment starts up and works well. This is our greatest reward (with the invoice :)).

I want to study Electronic Engineering in the future, honestly I get an awesome feeling when I fix simple electronics with the little knowledge I have, and the image of you smiling after fixing the touch gave me so much joy, videos like this make me even more confident about studying Electronics.

[@RU4SERIOUS1]

I’m currently studying electrical engineering in Toronto Canada, I am so excited to open a repair shop like this in the future, you inspire me and motivate me with all of your videos, keep up the good work!

[@JassonQuill]

goodluck sir

[@m.d.f3797]

I bet you this guy doesn’t even have an electrical engineering Degree. I think it would be a waste of your time to get an engineering Degree and then just open an electronic repair shop. Might as well save that tuition money that I know is not cheap, and the time spent studying at university and use it to directly learn how to do these repair job. You might even be able to make some money along the way repairing and learning.

[@RU4SERIOUS1]

M.D. F I thought the same thing, I learned recently he does have an electrical engineering degree. I get what you mean though, engineering school is not something taken just for fun and I’ve debated dropping out and doing exactly what you said. But frankly opening any business is a risk in itself, and let’s say it just doesn’t work out, now I’m left with nothing to fall back on. This isn’t my goal for right when I graduate, there is money to be made in the engineering field and I want to first pay off all of my parents debt and be settled and secure with my future family, before even thinking about any of this. It’s an eventual dream, when I am ready, I’ll use my knowledge of electrical systems and field experience, along with and further training I need to open my dream shop, thanks for the comment, all the best to you.

[@umadbroyolo8413]

@@RU4SERIOUS1 Keep studying, like you said if things don't work out you want something to fall back on. And who knows, perhaps you do start your own business and after a couple of years you might decide to move onto something else. You won't use everything that you learn in university, but the foundation will be there and it's a great sense of achievement.

[@Big74Mike2012]

I just found your videos on KZbin, as I'm starting out doing my own small scale repairs, etc., and I have to say that these videos are incredible! I learned so many things in just a few minutes! We all know that recording for KZbin just adds another layer of difficulty while you work, so it is much appreciated!

[@kevinm3751]

The expression on your face when you first saw this under the scope was priceless!

[@Ed_G777]

The expression on the face when the problem is resolved is PRICELESS 🤣 That is exactly how I feel when I fix something.

[@microguard]

I like when people are true, and are not afraid to say " I don't know" , but looks for another source to know the real tech value and info. Good Work !!

[@pr0xZen]

Flux strips the oxide layers. Oxide works like an insulation barrier, not just electrically and metallurgic, but also to some extend thermally. Meaning flux, through dissolving oxide, helps solder joints (re)flow more easily, with less thermal delta and duration of exposure, meaning less risk of thermal degredation or damage of whatever else is exposed to the applied heat.

[@floridaapplemacprosinc.2224]

There is NOTHING like that feeling, its better than the sheer joy when something works, but rather, when your backs against the wall, you dont know what ELSE it could be.. and then, it WORKS. FFEEWW!! thats awesome. great video.

This was the most incredible repair video I've seen so far. You have some amazing skills. Definitely look forward to watching your other vids. Thanks for sharing!

Most commentators have never tried soldering surface mount components, I have, and I am very impressed with your repairs. Not much point in making it look pretty since no one will see inside the case anyway.

[@HazeAnderson]

One of my first mentors (who quickly became an ex-mentor) told me to NOT buy a tub of flux. He said that there is plenty of flux in the solder but guess what he does? He just puts together through hole kits. I use extra flux for ALL kinds of purposes. And I find the cleanup afterwards to be less of a chore than not using flux at all.

[@zandagrouzdon5044]

I literally had sweats when you were working on that . 🔥😭 , Glad that worked out

[@AC_Milan1899]

At least you are able to get an fpc for Apple products. Really hard to get other parts for other makes.

[@JacobLara]

'Flux it up. Write that down.' 😂😂😂 Come for the repairs....stay for the comedy.

[@Almahdi331]

[@sparrow6190]

I prefer using flux every chance I can, makes job easier and cleaner job. It's a lot easier to rip pads off without flux, because flux lowers melting point of solder, making it flow and release easier. It also transfers the heat more evenly.

[@kevinscuffil1394]

[@MegaAssmonger]

hey alex, i was wondering if you could do a vidio on how to use a multimer for beginers. love your vidios very educational thank you

[@levit1803]

Hello, i love your videos and I appreciate what you do. I learned a lot from you. I made High school of telecommunication and electronics but in that time the components were big and you didn't need a microscope. I'm wondering when you say filters sise 0,2 or whatever it is you are meaning capacitors or there's some new components called filters and they have the same measurements. Sorry if I come as dumb, but I think it's not a shame to ask. It's a shame when somebody could of done it and didn't ask and he done something dumb because of the unknowledge.

When you're flexing a soldered down wire to break it off are you not worried the force will rip up parts or traces?

[@shadowsmoker8580]

I have zero experience with soldering so this might be a stupid question but how are you using the hot air gun to remove a component but it isn't causing any of the other components to loosen that are around it? You're not using any tape to protect the other components so what's making them not melt off?

[@starsat7100]

More amazing work, my friend. I wish you good luck and many more accomplishments

[@niteshkumarmaurya6601]

I think the connector 1 left behind, putting the FPC connector at 7:58 if I'm wrong, sorry

[@rexeffect7122]

The filter job may not look pretty, but it works pretty good.

[@peekpt]

Using Flux is like solder under water it will prevent component from overheating and makes solder to cold faster

Very few ppl left who repair else replaces
