Thank you very much for this video! Thanks to it I actually somehow managed to replace charger port on my iPad despite having zero experience in soldering, and never before attempting repairs harder than battery replacement. This is very helpful.

[@ErsinGokay]

Thank you for sharing the video, tools and skills needed for the job. I guess having the right tools is half of the job and the rest is skills I would assume. Good job

[@pldaniels]

Enjoying the new edit-style you seem to have changed up to. Looking forward to more.

[@DisloyalGaming]

Thank you so much so well done and very well explained. I opened a repair shop and I dont advertise or do solder work normally as thats something im still not comfurtable with but this one lady insisted because the only other option she had would cost her almost as much as it did getting the ipad in the first place. Had her sign a form and I was so anxious but this worked like a breeze. Thank you

[@SeanGotGjally]

this was very well recorded and explained, i’d say the best video on the topic. trying to replace one on a busted ipad air 2 my mom had a few years back that she dropped and broke the port with. this gave a lot of help for how and what to do and why you do it. thank you man!

[@raphi72]

I tried to desolder the flex cable with an iron and destroyed some pads doing so. Maybe my iron is just not hot enough, but I would only do it with hot air. It is much easier to heat the pads all at once with the air gun.

[@johnmorgans7919]

You seem to be really happy doing your repairs great video

[@duckduckgeeks]

Once you use the flux to clean - do you then use the soldering paste when you apply the new one?

[@DavydovAlex]

Very nice vid! Really appreciated all the details. But when do you know that its the charging port what's causing the problem?

[@sanchikov]

Jason hi! I just was wondering what temperature you used for soldering.

[@tonyrgnash]

you've given me a new technique to try, great vid. Also glad i'm not the only one with a bit of hand shake :)

[@ststele]

Thank u. I was thinking about giving up coffee to maybe help with the jitters.

[@ExposeClothing]

Hi there, have you ever successfully repaired the pin/pads on a PCB board that occured as a result of melting?

[@neiltsosie9254]

What kind of set up do you have there? Looks amazing.

[@wattage2007]

Mine drained it's battery completely while charging and now won't even show signs of life when a lightning cable is plugged in so I reckon I'll give this a go. Thanks!

[@Dutch_off_grid_homesteading]

heya ok that is again a new repair that I haven't seen before well done

[@rglennon6872]

What is this slobbering solder all over the place technique. Doesnt this make one big connected glop? Aren’t these pins/pads to connect to only one other on the charging port attachment area?

[@CalitranoN]

What is that clear liquid jelly you put on there? my solder is silver? Is it something i can get on amazon?

[@JC-wg4ce]

Awesome videos. Im learning alot. Thank you

[@MayconljRamirez]

Very Nice bo, I follow you from Honduras.

[@jasonacupan9505]

hi. if the flex was change. the finger print sensor or home botton will have some effect? it will get damage? or the home botton need to change so it can read a finger print? thnx pls reply

[@mudassariqbal6880]

Good Job!!! I always learn watching your Videos, Keep up good work. Stay Blessed :)

[@bosslife944]

Link for the port replacement please

[@cormacpyper]

Good video :) think ill ditch the hot air for removing those too next one i see thx ! been to scared to pull pads before thanks for easing my worries :)

[@sharfazhameed6382]

Everything looks good even the cracks on my desk lol 😂 my all times favorite tech knowledge with gigs

[@SuperRashedur]

nice work

[@joselyngo9730]

Sir what gel do u use to remove the charging port?

[@bigt121947]

Nice to see you againthanks

[@h0m3us3r.0]

Any practical reason for that sticker (that you didnt forget) besides aestetics?

[@Vater1]

Thanks

[@etatsopa]

Why don’t you use an anti-static mat on your desk - or any other kind of anti-static protection for that matter? Some components on that logic board are certainly sensitive enough to ESD to warrant a little more care

[@ZimaletaMotors]

Great repair

[@JussiBiorling]

Excellent work, very clean, sorry, what flux type or brand do you use? thanks congrats from México.

[@gregoryellis2600]

Another great video!!

[@ststele]

This is so awesome, KZbin puts comments from members at the top for me. Thanks for still watching a year later :)

[@saratechnologywaterford4352]

Good job عمل رائع

[@diegom7771]

Hi my friend. Great video. I´ve done same repair than you in my Ipad Air and the flex charger port is already installed. I´ve checked the connections and it seems all are correct but once I´ve connected the charger to the new USB port (5.2 volts.), I´ve detected 1.4 volts. only in the motherboard battery pads (without the battery fitted). Which voltage should be in these pads? 3,7 volts? I cannot fit the battery as it´s gone. It´s dead. Before to purchased new one, I need to know if the repair is properly done but that 1,4 volts make me suspect that something is wrong. Can you help me? I´ll appreciate a lot. Thank you.

[@AyhamAssilAndroid]

that epic ending !

[@marlin3618]

Your the man jay I am getting ready to send u a 6s plus with water damage

[@MoreHarmMad]

What flux do u use sir, can u give me link for it. Thanks

[@darrengamble9427]

Is this repair similar on an iPad mini 2? What is the part number?

[@أبوالحارثعبدالرزاق]

Jason hot air from proskit ?

[@robertmoranda7257]

What temp do you have your iron set too?

[@ststele]

I think I was at 750~800F. I mostly use 750 now.

[@michaelparham3543]

Thank you very kindly for the video, it saved my butt. This is exactly how I did it. The re-alignment is definitely the hardest part before applying solder. I used a few small clamps to hold both components down.

[@jaypaljayswal9867]

thank you awesome video

[@MarceloMatospmcf]

How much do you charge on average for a repair descending from the video?

[@JTBivens]

Loved the ending lol

[@helmuthrendl6560]

Great Job as alway

[@akrammobilerepairing1064]

very nice dear

[@zx8401ztv]

Very neat, and you focused on only what matters :-D

[@DsOft4u]

what type of solder you are using is this kester leaded ?

[@ststele]

In this video was Kester 60/40 but I usually use 63/37

[@diegom7771]

hi. thanks for your great video. What can I do if the pads in motherboard are broken at the moment of flex removal? this is my case. I thought in jumpers but I need the information to know where fit them.

[@ststele]

Thanks for the compliment. Jumpers would be the only way. Some pads may not be needed though. Check out Phoneboard: phoneboard.co/ It’s a free board view program and should have the info you need. Hopefully this helps :)

[@diegom7771]

WoW!!! Thanks for your sooner answer. I'll work on it and I'll inform you about my progress. Not everything is lost. I still have hope for my iPad air.!!!

[@aroramobilesolution327]

hello sir,bro ipad mini 4 Trister ic is same as iphone

[@TTT-V]

thank you sir

[@mobile_deep_fix_finland]

Very nice 😎 good to see you again! Do you use 0.5x C-mount relay lens for camera? I use and I wonder what is the best x lens for camera so the field of view is more wider..

[@ststele]

Thank you. This one is 0.5x. I really like the results Paul Daniels is getting out of his 0.7x though... I'm planning to change to that one day.

[@mobile_deep_fix_finland]

STS Telecom do you mean that he have 0.7x for C-Mount or 0.7x regular barlow lens under microscope :)

[@S3piocomputersCanada]

STS Telecom are you refer to 0.75x

[@pldaniels]

I've got the 0.7~0.75X main barlow on the microscope itself, and a 0.3X on the camera adaptor for the c-mount. The 0.3X on the c-mount is because I'm using a 1/2.8" sensor on the camera. If you have a 1/2" sensor you probably want to get a 0.5X c-mount reducer. What's on the main-barlow doesn't really matter for the camera, as the camera/c-mount is about just capturing the most of what ever is in the microscope's FOV.

[@mobile_deep_fix_finland]

Paul Daniels Thank you for the information, Paul!

[@techhead1012]

i totally agree with u but im still gona float them :D

[@karthikt2925]

Super

[@vickimae7068]

Can i send u mine to fix?

[@vincent_mobilebiondo7951]

Hello.NICE JOB! I,m in trouble with my IPad Air 2 with the charge flat cable broken(I have tried to take off to my own! :( ) Can you fix it? Let me know. I,m in UK

[@likearockcm]

This is just gonna be a quick comment so I'll get to it ! enjoyable video !! don't be such a stranger ,Jason

[@S3piocomputersCanada]

What brand of solder you use

[@ststele]

This is Kester 60/40 in this video

[@ststele]

[@MarceloMatospmcf]

Why do not you work with Android phones?

[@ststele]

I do sometimes but very rarely and I'm sneaky so nobody knows.. hehe

[@Vater1]

This is damn near surgical

[@peacock5737]

Bit more than my ability’s Dam it 😂

[@HashimSalim-g4p]

😘👍🏼

[@davideo1954]

What should that cost in £ or $? Fast Phone Repair wants 3 days and $90. They have 1 solderer..er for 2 shops. He's off til Thursday. What? And whoever. .whom... the person I talked to earlier said "if that part, fix this afternoon for few dollars." Hint: ALWAYS GET A NAME or it's NO Sir! You have been not understood. What?
