Most people I've seen do this put a little bit of solder on the pads on the board, then place the flex cable on top and just heat it up from the back without adding more solder, until the solder makes it through the hole to the top
I did watch a how-to and this is the way he did it 😉 But with less flux
First, add low melt solder to the connections and use your iron to insure good distribution of the low melt into all of the connections underneath. Next, reheat all the connections and the connector will easily lift off. Clean ALL low melt off the connections and prepare the pads with fresh leaded solder. Place the charge port connector and line up the dots in the center of the windows on each side. Apply leaded solder at one end and insure alignment is still good. Then apply more solder as you move down the connector and tack the center and the opposite end. Now begin to add more leaded solder and tap each pad to insure heat transfer and that you have enough solder on each pin. The solder needs to come up through the holes from the pads underneath. Add more flux and reheat connections and even out the solder on all pins from one end of the connector to the other. Then you are done. Reassemble and test. Good luck, Richard! I know you can do it!
Always make sure first thing to disconnect is the battery connection .
For me, visually, the soldering iron is not clean enough. That is the most important thing to do before soldering (more than a thick blob of flux). I saw that tip on Rossmann micro soldering videos. Cleaning both the board and iron, flux, pre heating in that order. Anyway, you did it, and it's not easy. Nice conclusion 👍
Good work Richard 👍👍👍👍👍
I was thinking a small piece of Kapton tape. Place it on one side to hold it in place after you lined it up. You could flip it over then apply.
I'm just a hobbiest not a professional.
Heya, that looks like a very nice repair
There is a learning curve with everything new. Just like a plasterer if he uses a different plaster to what he usually uses he has to get to know the new one. The first time is always a bit fiddly.
I wouldnt expect any less for apple to use some proprietary like connection like that..ive had plenty of non apple products apart and never come across this. Anyways well done, keep up the good work, love the channel
With practice you will become an expert 👍
I want to know what Jason (STS) thinks.
Apple proving themselves assholes yet again. Unnecessary complicated. Good idea to preheat the zone, best to keep cleaning the soldering iron tip in copper wool for stuff like this. The techniques I've seen basically involve brushing gently all the way from side to side with the iron. Kapton tape might also have been a good way to hold the flexgate cable in place.
saved 2 pennies on 1 less connector. cause people to throw away device for a simple port damage. its a win win.
You would think they would put one of the push down connectors there like they have everywhere else but they deliberately make it as difficult as possible.
Are the line up holes big enough to put a couple of dress making pins through, into maybe a piece of wood, to keep it from moving ?
Horrid design.
Designed by Apple and stuck together with sticky tape in China. 😅 Then fixed by the legend Richard in Grand Canaria 👏
Hi Richard from Sydney Australia. Were you connecting the new power input ribbon of the tablet: soldering new gold pins onto old gold pins?
"Mend it Mark" I've seen him flux and lay solder onto MOSFET pins with a fine straight point tip.
🕵️🇦🇺
Marks a legend knows his stuff.
❤
Ask Luis rossman about apple products lol
I think the warranty might be void now!
Fear is not an option! :)
Its like apple want their devices to break.
Wow that design is dodgy A.F. It's a typical crapple product. Best place for that is in the bin lol
Thank for the video! Cut your nails.
Noooo... you need reasonably long finger nails to electronics repair. Last time someone said cut them and I did, I was hopeless until they grew back a bit. Carlos at Retro Upgrade says the same thing. So let's put the question out there - fingernails or no?
Too late for me, I bite mine down to the bone 🤦♂😂@@LearnElectronicsRepair
@@LearnElectronicsRepair Yeah agreed, longer fingernails help
KEEP the nails they are an essential part of any good tool kit !!!!@@LearnElectronicsRepair
