Accidentally discovered your channel. I thought that Jean Reno began to repair devices)). I enjoy watching your Better Than Factory videos. It would be cool to see live streams with your repairs.
can’t wait to see the 27” imac that came in today..probably a bad / bent LVDS connector ..that connector is the hardest connector ever to solder…40+ pins and most techs can’t do it!!

I have a Mac Mini 2012, i7 Quad Core. While upgrading my SSD I popped the the fan connector off. For time being, until I can get it in for repairs, I set it on a laptop cooling fan. This has worked out ok, keeping the CPU at 78-85*C. I know many people use a USB fan as a cooling solution rather than fixing the internal fan, saying they get better cooling, but I am concerned about dust. Well I just happen to have a LEVOIT air purifier I haven't used in a while. I fired it up and set the Mini, base removed on top of the Air Purifier. The Air Flow is much stronger, even on low than the laptop pad, plus it solves the dust issue. Well, my CPU is running at 45*C after using it all day including streaming. I'm currently shopping for a lower profile Air Purifier as this unit is abut 14" tall, but my God it has stayed below 50*C since I came up with this solution. I would think this is going to extend the life of this unit. I only paid $122 for this Mini so I'm really not looking to pay and electrician $100 Plus for soldering service.
Cool, great work. Easy job for you. I would be interested in how you would connect those two solderpoints without glue, that holds the connector down on the board. I think it would be to tight for the bent-solder tip. Thank your the video. I watched it after my work to relax. Greets
i wish you would, as you go explain what some components are? and why you can tell the value of some components are like capacitors but you cant on others?
Other repair RUclips channels alert, here's a new one to steal: "You must be able to fix your hair looking at the joints, that's how you know the soldering is good". Thanks, you're welcome!
Helo Alex. I've been watching your videos for at least a year and have learned many tips and tricks in the meantime. You do a fantastic job and I hope to learn a lot from your recovery art in the future. I would like to know how to get rid of the shine (glare) under your microscope. Maybe a little video about this if the workload allows it for you. Many greetings in advance from the small country of Belgium. Andy.☝☝
actually the 2 other pins looked like they were solderable (is this a word?). why didn't you try it? or maybe it was just an optical illusion, hard to tell by the video
Hey Alex! Thanks for your work! Could you comment on why do you sometimes test GPUs with absolutely no cooling? Those components often die even with a heatsink. Isn't there a huge probability of a quick but deadly power spike?
Usually any chip before to be assembled in his final case is wormed up 2 times up to 400 C. and is tested after that. So "overheating" up to 50-60 degrees C. for few seconds is not critical at all. But long and high temperature (80-90 C ) can short life of the chip with years.
Quick question, I'm new to all of this. Just started learning the whole microsoldering stuff. Why do you apply flux and tin and then remove it again with the soldering wick instead of just removing right away with the wick. Is there a difference ?
Hello I am from India and I have an Asus G531GT laptop that doesn't power on and even the charge led doesn't glow....you have fixed some of the same models in your videos....can you fix mine and make a video on that?
When I used soldering wick it got pcb melted and stuck on PCB. I was practicing on nokia 3310 phone. I was replacing very small capacitor. Is it bad soldering wick?
apologies Alex, I don't know why but once in a while I feel like I have to comment on all the backwards comments on here, from people who don't know history at all, to people who just repeat what they hear someone else say about Apple without taking a moment to think maybe there's another side to the story. you don't get great customer satisfaction ratings year in and year out if your products are inferior. People just have larger than life expectations because apple is expensive: but that price you pay usually gets you a decade of computer usage. I have many 2012 Macs come in my shop with repair value left in them.
Hate people who just pull on the cable... why cant they do this properly? People like this sure take a mouse on its tail to pick it up... I have only hate for people like this in my heart...
please tell me how a customer ripping a connector off, is apples fault. or do you think if it was an HP it would be resistant to it? maybe Dell has anti rip off connectors? Alienware? ive said this once, ill say it a million times. The reason you see so many apples getting worked on, is because apple sells so many computers. PCs are not one computer, they are many companies. sometimes you have to think. How does apple have such a high customer satisfaction if they're computers are garbage. simple, they are not. there are millions of apple computers that never fail. you just see the ones that do and assume (prob from watching too much Rossmann) that they are garbage.
HIROSHIMA IS NOT FUN TERM, IT WAS GENOCIDE OF JAPANESE, SAY IT'S BEEN THROUGH A LOT OF IRAQS, LIBYAS AND AFGHANISTANS INSTEAD... IRAQS MUST BE THE MOST FUN TERM FOR YOU IF YOU REALLY THINK THAT WAY ABOUT HIROSHIMA... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
People who ask why so much flux are the kind who like to go in dry. I'd trust my electronics repair with this shop.

Lmfao for real
Alex, did you do a video on how to get rid of the glare ?

Much more fun when you do it on a phone board trust me. Esp when you have 80 pins fpc :)

Does anyone know what component that is next to the connector @3:55 (a resistor ?)
your work is amazing to watch always look forward to seeing the next repair fail or fix gives a good insight
i like the new soldering iron tip ♥
nice and clean worl as always God bless u bro i wish u more success "" from Algeria"
Alex, i always enjoy your humor :-D
Your work is always top notch.

always waiting for nice rework like this! thank you alex!
Nice job. You told before that you will explain how to get rid of the glare. I hope you make a video on it.
Big Boss should have a disassembly/reassembly tutorial channel.

Why didn't you resolder the two rear side pins?
nicely done sir.. I hope u will post a new video everyday.. I cannot stop watching all ur videos Alex.. ty
question: why do the 2 supporting pads are not soldered?
Right?

Hi...sir nice to see you I am from India i all ways see your video it's very good for me to help I have some fiv questions to learn with
Didn't you solder the two supporting pads at all?
Not at all

Hello Good to see your new videos coming dailys.. love watch your show and other… :)
Good job mate.
Always Love your videos my role model
Why you use desoldering wick and why not solder sucker pump
How much do you charge for this ?
Big love from Manipur
I bet the Apple engineers watching this are proud that even a simple upgrade can damage your device
...but I think that at the same time some of them are sad, because the fan connector did not rip off any pads
Especially the stakeholders. I think they watch these videos and whack off on the daily
Also when I'm asked to do something dodgy on purpose, my heart always itches. I bet engineer's at apple get depressed over that shit
The Mac mini wasn't really designed to be upgraded.
Ciao complimenti per i tuoi lavori, mi puoi dire l’ottica del tuo microscopio? Grazie
The perfect amount of glue
actually the 2 other pins looked like they were solderable (is this a word?). why didn't you try it? or maybe it was just an optical illusion, hard to tell by the video
I noticed that too. Probably did it off camera.

As long as you don't have it powered on for any lengthy period of time it will be fine. Also most modern GPUs can throttle.
Lot of love from Kerala.😊✌🏻
Me also 👍🏻 ekm
great job
Better than factory!
Great job
Great fix as always alex
Quick question, I'm new to all of this. Just started learning the whole microsoldering stuff. Why do you apply flux and tin and then remove it again with the soldering wick instead of just removing right away with the wick. Is there a difference ?
he mix facory solder with non leaded to lower melting temperature and for easier removal with wick...
@@bbokip2138 mixes with leaded solder not non-leaded solder
U r the best i hope one day i be like u
Hello I am from India and I have an Asus G531GT laptop that doesn't power on and even the charge led doesn't glow....you have fixed some of the same models in your videos....can you fix mine and make a video on that?
Awesome 👌 👏 👍
Where do you get your circuit diagrams? :)
Better than factory 👍
When I used soldering wick it got pcb melted and stuck on PCB. I was practicing on nokia 3310 phone. I was replacing very small capacitor. Is it bad soldering wick?
Rather not enough flux and soldering tip too small. Wick cools too fast.
I want to buy microscope
I’m from Iraq/Mosul
Thank you bro
Never seen one of these before
My computer(notebook) have installed a ram module of 8gb, but my notebook doesn't detect it, What problem could the notebook have? :(
because its only 4 gb ram i think not supporting higher ram
@@sadaqatali5712 Ou, but my laptop support 24gb ram to 3200mhz (ddr4)
That’s why we need the right for repair
just remember a customer ripped the connector off. Right to repair means your right to have Alex (or. other shops) repair your stuff, not you.
“Flux is your friend” :)
Very good job 👏 👍 👌 🙌
Big boss sounded Scottish 👍🏻
Awesome job bro keep rocking bro 👍👍👍
nice Vedio ☮️👍
Sometimes people are not very patient.
Showing Apple how it's PROPERLY done! 😏🍎
Good morning eng
LVDS connectors?? Alex can handle it easily. Even I can handle it easily, even though I can not replace an M92T36 chip on a Nintendo Switch board :)
Where todays video I was waiting
Great work as always, a joy to watch.
It's just a shame that everything apple is shit.

Thank God the only Apple product I own is an ipad for my wife to watch RUclips videos off
go up and read my comment for DUSAN
Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
قالك اشتغلت 😂😂
alkohola will remove glue. i think.
Don't think
Ha ha ha

I wish we could make the customer experience what they did. Stay out of it if you dont know what your doing.
Hate people who just pull on the cable... why cant they do this properly? People like this sure take a mouse on its tail to pick it up...
I have only hate for people like this in my heart...
the fan is not original, from beetstech lol
I didn't get the joke.
Why do people continue to buy Apple products?
