Owner here. Fantastic work. Really impressed with your abilities. You are correct that we were trying to blind unlock the screen to get a backup. Almost worked but couldn’t get the trust prompt button right. Happy Holidays!

Your vids are my little guilty pleasure. I've been doing board repairs at work, and over the years I've figured out various thermal-camera-less tricks to track down shorts on multilayer boards. But a thermal camera - thanks to your various thermal vids - turns out to make life 5x easier. The air temperature and flow manipulation was also what I lacked skill with, so you've helped me a lot just by narrating how you set your air pencil. I have a crusty Hakko 851 but it does the job and is very dependable. It has different scales and whatnot, but your approach gave me a general idea what to steer towards.

@APSuk2 5 ай бұрын

Anyone laughing because you did not get the component on exactly right the first time has clearly never micro soldered before and is not worth the time. I have said it before Jason but you make this look to easy, I would have screwed up that little jumper wire so many times trying to make it look perfect and in turn making it look worse 😄 Heck even scraping out around that tiny little via was extremely skilful, so easy to scrape to deep into another layer or trace. Do you think at 11:19 maybe the wire broke off the via at that point? Just a guess from the way it moved but I have never worked with this thin of wire before.

@ststele 5 ай бұрын

Lol! Ok that was a good trick comment. Read the first part first and was all ready to be offended 😂 I think I may have broke the wire inside of its enamel coating but it could have came loose from the via. Also, since I never actually checked it, it could have been broken further in the board. Likely just my wire broken or came loose tho. :-). Thank you for the good comment and kind words! 🙂

@GadgetReviewVideos 5 ай бұрын

Good work on that small wire jump. But I do have to ask why you didn’t check that test point next to the UV masking you did. Visually it looked like the trace went directly to that same wire jumper point you soldered. If it did, wouldn’t that have been easier to solder a jumper wire to that test pad?

@ststele 5 ай бұрын

Thanks. I'll have to go back and check the video or look at the next SE that comes in. The board view shows that test point is for a different line though. That's why I didn't check it. :-) board views can be wrong tho.

Hi, Jason. Merry Christmas to start with. Some cool things you do on your channel. I enjoy watching your contents. I recently pulled my drone apart, and on the camera connector, there is a component with markings LB5. I cannot find any info/seller on that component. If you ever come across anything like this, or could help in any way, I will subscribe to your channel. Thank you PS- I understand you are busy and don't have time, but if you can share any info I would appreciate it. PSS- if you can give me info, I will break every cellphone in my company and have them sent to you for repair 😂

It would be completely ok. If that 5v7 line got shorted and there was enough supply current, instead of blowing the FL it would just melt the wire. I think the wire is rated for around the same current as that FL (although I’ve never checked!)
