Never put power to a water damaged phone... 1. first pull out the board 2. check for corrosion 3. if you find any clean it and remember were the damage was 4. then plug the phone to any sort of power to diagnose you were lucky on this one...
@charles_newman94 I understand the basics. But to suggest I'm going to cause damage to the board is incorrect. If the phone is water damaged, the battery is putting power to the board before it even touches my bench. And most customers will try charging their phones after water damage. So me plugging it in is not going to cause any additional damage and it never has
@@VCCBoardRepairs While a water damaged phone may have power from the battery that caused some damage, intentionally connecting it to a power source like plugging it in can introduce higher voltage and current, potentially worsening damage. Corrosion or short circuits might not be severe until additional power is applied. Customers often do plug in their devices after water damage, but as a technician, best practices involve disconnecting the battery and inspecting the board before applying any power. This reduces the risk of short circuits or further component failure. While you've personally never caused additional damage by plugging in water damaged devices, electronics repair standards recommend avoiding powering devices before proper inspection. This isn't about questioning your skill but following protocols that minimize risks. Your logic is understandable, but cautious handling of water damaged devices-such as disconnecting the battery and checking for corrosion first-is generally safer.

My boss is back! I smile watching your videos
Thank you! Appreciate the support!
Thank you for your video Jesse!
Thanks for watching 🙌
good job sir
Appreciate it! Thank you so much
Out of interest...would the phone work totally if you had put the chip back after cleaning, as the short seemed to be by corrosion?
In theory, yes. But we don't know if there's more corrosion under other ICs. So the device could fail again later

1. first pull out the board
2. check for corrosion
3. if you find any clean it and remember were the damage was
4. then plug the phone to any sort of power to diagnose
you were lucky on this one...
I must be always lucky then since we have a nearly 100% success rate on these Samsungs
@@VCCBoardRepairs Just saying the basics you can even make a simple google search... i'm glad you have that much success!
I hope i didnt offend you...

@charles_newman94 you forgot to mention an ESD wristband
Why using Mechanics boot box! What you get via box you will get directly if you use USB out from Power Supply!
There's no USB out on my power supply
power button, led indicator, plus extra button for smth
@@VCCBoardRepairs 2 Banana clip + 1 USB Female + 30 Sec job. You got one!
Why would I bother doing that for?
