Hello sir , Please i love your videos there is alot of Hindi videos but i can understand english, english videos are rare.. i hope u do more like this 🥰🥰❤️, sir please do a android power supply reading and android dead phone troubleshooting steps

[@emmanuelvalmas5648]

Hi Jesse, you are a true contributor to people who are trying to understand more complex repairs, I have been watching all your videos. May I ask a basic question, regarding voltage injection. Do you set only the voltage on the DC power supply, in this case 4.2V and wait to see how much amperage the component will draw when you inject the voltage? Or you set both voltage and amperage on the DC power supply which in this case should be 4.V and 2.5A and then inject?

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

for a main power rail, i set it to 4.2v/2.5A and inject

[@emmanuelvalmas5648]

@@VCCBoardRepairs Thank you Jesse. I had the impression that only voltage is required to be set on the DC power supply and then Amps are drawn from the device accordingly. So I guess setting 2.5A as well doesn't allow the device to draw more. But maybe I'm wrong. Do you have any online courses? You explain very well details like hot air temperatures example that not a lot of KZbinrs do

Nice work. Just got in my first liquid damage S10. Real mess, roasted components all over. Removed a short, jump started the battery and charged externally. plugged the minimum back, pushed power button, got a vibrate, Samsung on screen, then screen faded to black. going to take one more look tonight. not hopeful.. Thanks

[@SolderBrothers]

Forgot to mention, the usbc is damaged, not shorting, but definitely will not let me connect.

Hi jesse, it's really amazing to to see you making videos on Samsung motherboards as well, it would be greatly appreciated if you can do videos on more of the Samsung A series phones as well bro, that would truly be awesome to look at❤❤❤💯💯💯🙏🏻😊

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

Sure! Send me some to repair and I will make a video haha

[@3mbracetheSh4dow]

Hey bro love the video I learned a lot and you're a great instructor. I have a question though my old A7 and my friends S21 both have blackout screen due to broken screens but the phones are not water damaged. Only problem I see is the debugging USB option. When I connect via a charging dock station, how do I turn it on so I can use a dex software to access data?

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

Replace the screen or fix the no image issue

[@its2tho]

It it possible to have the water damaged phone repaired so that it will turn on & then have it sent back to me?

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

If it's for data, I wouldn't recommend it. Often times, the phone is very unreliable and may not survive by the time you receive it

[@jamesdamewood4997]

What is it about water cause MLCC caps to short?

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

The impurities in the water react to electricity causing corrosion and damage to the capacitors

My man, most androids take 3.85v to the motherboard, is putting 4.2v safe?

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

yes it's safe.

[@BirdManPhil]

@VCCBoardRepairs no kidding thats good to know. I've been avoiding using my p3208 on android boards because the lowest it will output on the boot lines is 4.2 and I was worried that would be bad for them.
