I sincerely thank you, Sir, for the good and pragmatic explanation in the video: It helped me revive my girlfriend's iphone 7 with the very same fault und recover all her data! Especially several GB of holiday pictures are very dear to her and thanks to your video all the pictures are now safe and not a write-off. Thanks again!
I don't want to be like you; I want to be you. Humble, funny, wise, pragmatic, generous, supremely talented, and with a beautiful family. You are a man to be admired.
For many years, I have learned to trouble shoot electronics in devices and auto chips, but watching a real craftsman at work is so helpful in methods and testing. I so much enjoy your comments and the test methods. Thank you for taking the time to teach me some of your excellent skill. So practical and well done. My regards for a great new year. M.
I discovered this channel after my wife's Galaxy S6 Edge just died. I stoped receiving charge. Took it to a shop thinking it was a dead battery and they said "phone is dead no repair possible!" It doesn't receive any charge, with cable or wireless! If I lived in England I would stop by your shop. I'll try to check if the battery is really dead, because the shop did the hard part, they opened the back!! Very nice channel!
Thanks for a great howto guide. I followed you guide. Found the water damage at exactly the same spot. The same capacitor was gone. I removed it - and the phone works again. Thank you for sharing your experiences and smart diagnosing tips.
This is a Great Video, But Over the past 20 years, I've purchased more than 25 cell phones and 15 tablets and not a one has ever had any issues. The list goes from Nokia, Blackberry, Toshiba and on. In the last 5 years, I've been with Samsung. But in Jan 2018 I finally decided to give Apple a try and I was pleasantly surprised. I got an iPhone 7 Plus along with an iPad Pro 12.9 and they have worked great together. I use them every day. I keep them as must as possible out of direct sunlight, leaving them in a HOT CAR and always buy a Great case to protect them. (Otter Box). I've watched friends and coworkers treat their cell phones and tablets like a child treat an old toy that they don't want anymore. Also, back in 2014, I picked up an iPad Air 2 for the first time as a main On The Go Tablet and have never looked back. So I must be the lucky one. So far.
thank you so much sir, my iphone 7 had the same problem after dipped in a water park. but now the phone is alive. thank you so much again . love from India
Thanks very much for what you do for people I included. Am very grateful for the knowledge 1nd the patience you show us though your materials are not readily available in most of our locations like power supply.
Lol... dodgy people indeed. Last week I fixed a customer tablet. The charging IC was dead and wouldn't charge, and I fixed it. Next day he come back with the table and the "charger" saying it wasn't charging and demanded a fix under warranty. I checked the charger and he was using a wrong charger (9v) on a (5v) circuit. He said he haven't connected any charger on the device and demanded a warranty repair, and I told him the only way for the IC to damage is if he connected a charger to the tablet, and told him he was using the wrong one. I lost all fate in humanity after seeing jerks like that.
I can’t believe I have my own phone water damage no one of repairs shops accepted to repair it in Vienna except one shop and stay in that shop for more than tow months with no benefits Great job Sorin
Thank you for the great work and for the tips. I stopped repairing iPhone and Samsung. Touch ID phones. They came for repair screen and after replacing the screen and swap the button it still not working the Touch ID home button is a replacement and the are blaming me for it. So I closed the shop for 10mnd now. First I have to get new budget to start over again.
Best electronic repair videos on youtube IMHO! Simple, just how things are supposed to be according to Einstein! My only issue in that you should post more videos.
I have found that it's better to do my own testing of a device, rather than just listen to the customer only. People can give misleading info, i learnt that lesson a long time ago. Thats a smashing mat, keeps the screws from vanishing into a different dimension lol :-D.
Julian Gardner-Hobbs When i used to repair c.b radios for people, they would not admit to connecting the power the wrong way to the radio. Yet the fuse was blown (Unless they had put a nail in its place) and the reverse polarity circuit was turned into a black ash mess. It was like trying to get a politition to tell the truth, although that might have been easy in comparison :-D
i admire your work. you are talented and with lot of experience that I admire too. in my repair shop I always replace the shorted or missing part..i am learning so much from you on not to replace the shorted parts..lol
Hello Sorin as you know I thoroughly enjoy your Vids, now I can see better with your new Blue mat,may I say to who sent it to you THANK YOU and to you also keep up the good work
8:35 haha exactly! I agree :) I had few clients in the past who say the same "no, my hard drive was good before" "no i didn't noticed that my screen hinges was broken in my laptop"
That cap is definitely gone !!!! Sorin i jest yet again! Honestly though i do love your channel. I have learnt so much from you. I have a genuine question for you??? And i know your answer will be, "it's not needed". But why not replace the cap and if not why was it there in the first place?? Perhaps you could explain in a video or maybe when you address capacitors in your electronic's for beginners video's?? I am subscribed and always like and watch all your video's ;)
the manufacter put all the compenent in their place they dont put any component whithout a reason (it is planning and science more that they try to reduce the cost as well as possible ) and this capacitor is there for many reasons it can be for filtring or more stabulise the potentiel because in the phone there are many ics whitch need a very stabulise vcc or whatever for doing their job perfectly and when we ommit this capacitor it will affect the ic or other component by the time and disorders appear for exemple u can see the ic of network how much it is sensible and so other it's sure and sorry for the english
@shay pain i watched all sorin 's video and believe me there is no answer for his question and not sorin only ho say that we can ommit capacitor propably all the technician do that and say that whithout indicating the side effects of that but sure there is many if not tell me whitch video sorin talked about that
Do you have a website? I have an iPhone 7 with liquid damage. It’s been in my drawer for two years. I’d love to know if there’s any way to recover my photos and memories. Thanks! Great video!
I actully had long time ago an argue with client, Samsung Galaxy J3 dropped to the toilet ( lol ) , so of course water damage thing, won't power on, fixed it and also replaced Digitzer as the customer wanted to, then she started compalin that microphone doesn't work, well it's almost absolute obvious that the Mic can be dead after water damage.
Hi my phone 7 display dosent work but the hime button does I went to a service and they said that something is burned and its hard to find what do you think its burned and can you help find it thx
I don't have a bench power supply, could I use say a 9volt battery to look for shorts? Would a shorted component still get hot? I have some multi voltage universal adapters, could I set one of these to 3/4 volts and look for the short with this? Thanks for the vid( I have a water damaged iPhone 7 to look at soon)
Sir please please please make some videos,how to read and diagnose completely understanding schematics diagram for beginner to end with iphone/ipad motherboard... .. like your smile 😃 love ❤️ your Channel thanks
I have water damaged iphone 7 which wont turn on. I have disconnected old battery and connected new one. Once I have connected new one, it started smoking in place where you connect battery. What does that mean? Thanks. Also the new battery is now dead but old on has still 3.8V
sir thank you for your videos and keep on doing it.don't think of comment over your videos.keep on doing what you are doing because you are not God to know what will be ok for everybody here because nobody is perfect in this world.thank from me and friends to you.i wish i can come there and learn.God bless you and your family.sorry for my english.
Look what Im learning. 😁 Lighter fluid gives off smoke to notice short. Alcohol will just evaporate and you have to watch for it. Harder to notice. But you just showed lighter fluid will evaporate and give smoke. To help find it quicker. Amazing
My friend lost her iPhone 7 in my local river and 8 thought as a jokes I’ll go back and look for it... I found it and when I plugged it in it vibrated multiple times but didn’t turn on. I took the screen of and let it dry... nothing have happened as 8 am charging it... any advise?
How do you do this camera shot? Also, I dropped my Wiko Obama phone in water. It actually sat 2/3 of the way up over night in fresh water. The phone is in someone else's name and is always hooked up. I can't believe I messed this phone up. I need all the data on it. Can I please send it to you and get it fixed?
Hello would love to send you my iPhone 7 light water damage HELP extremely important info on it wasn’t saved how can I get it over to you guys. Thank you 🙏🏻
As a rookie tech just coming into the game, I find it very annoying when these guys dont sort out the screws on their mats. They just put the screws where ever, knowing that each screw is a different size. During my training, they make a big deal on keeping the screws in the right order, because they are all different sizes.
could i send my phone in to you? ive been trying to repair water damage on iphone 7 plus for weeks and cant figure it out. i dont really know what im doing but i have a red sticker on the inside says water damage. please help
Hello I was trying to make Vidoe under water I put half of my phone like upside down underwater but my lcd is going colorful and my phone won't go on What do I do 😐plz help 😭

Thank you Senpai Sorin! Strangely, I am today trying to fix my first phone (for data recovery) and it's an iPhone 7 with water damage!
Thank you Julian for the pad, is great :D Good luck then
The way of your working is very intresting sir.
I looked at the pad and I saw "Farts". Later realized that it said "Parts"
Thanks very much for what you do for people I included. Am very grateful for the knowledge 1nd the patience you show us though your materials are not readily available in most of our locations like power supply.

Alway say: "bring it with the charger what are you using" :)
Simple
Common people are not smart like u smartass people .
Another good lesson and explanation. I learn a lot of your videos. Best regards. Dido from Bulgaria.
Where was the short? Is that the voltage regulator that you are imputing voltage at? Thanks for the cool videos...
Thanks,can you make video about fixing generally phone boards what are most common errors greatings from Serbia
I did it and it worked I’m commenting on the iPhone 7 I fixed thanks
Calm, professional, and with great content. Thanks very much
Hooka kept him calm lol but definitely great video
another good lesson and advice on repairing job,that was a very very good tip.
Thank-you very much Sr. I had the same problem on the same place and same fix. Have a phone again thanks to you
I can’t believe
I have my own phone water damage no one of repairs shops accepted to repair it in Vienna except one shop and stay in that shop for more than tow months with no benefits
Great job Sorin

No
Thank you for the great work and for the tips.
I stopped repairing iPhone and Samsung. Touch ID phones.
They came for repair screen and after replacing the screen and swap the button it still not working the Touch ID home button is a replacement and the are blaming me for it. So I closed the shop for 10mnd now. First I have to get new budget to start over again.
You can't replace touch id, each is unique.
Hi Sorin! Another great video. I think You should open a school for newbies.
really enjoy your video's & will look out for more because you explain things which most people can attempt to try.. thank you again..
Best electronic repair videos on youtube IMHO! Simple, just how things are supposed to be according to Einstein! My only issue in that you should post more videos.
I have found that it's better to do my own testing of a device, rather than just listen to the customer only.
People can give misleading info, i learnt that lesson a long time ago.
Thats a smashing mat, keeps the screws from vanishing into a different dimension lol :-D.
The missing caps and screw dimension 🤣
So true. Never take the customer's word for it. Always do your own checks.

What kind of liquid you use to check for overheating components🙏🙏
Do you have a website? I have an iPhone 7 with liquid damage. It’s been in my drawer for two years. I’d love to know if there’s any way to recover my photos and memories. Thanks! Great video!
Where can I order the kit to fix a water damage iPhone?
Sr what is the liquid name that you use to detect the heat?
Sorine, poți să-mi explici te rog cum poate să ajungă un condensator în scurt de la water damage ?
I was a little confused, but what did you do to fix it ? What did u replace? Can someone help me please
Is petrol unleaded gasoline? Or flux?
7:26 Thanks Sorin, good advice. i like your method to deal with clients. I will remember it ;)
When you tasted smoke do you connect the 2 poles on the negative side?
Very good video.

I actully had long time ago an argue with client,

What did you use to clean it please
You left out the hardest part. Sticking the screen back securely so it doesn't lift the following week. What glue do you use?
What is the name of the liquid you are using to find the fault. And wish sight can I buy it please
Zippo petrol
Buying one of those pads right away....
thank"s for your sharing knowledge , the petrol what you use is petrol of car ?
wopp It's zippo petrol for lighter
you use petrol means zippo lighter petrol?
I never thought to use zippo to find a short smart!
For cleaning which is better: petrol or isopropyl alcohol? And what kind of petrol are you using? Thanks
Zippo petrol
Hello, good advices Sorin, how much did you charge for the customer ?
Best Regards
Hi my phone 7 display dosent work but the hime button does I went to a service and they said that something is burned and its hard to find what do you think its burned and can you help find it thx
Where did you find out the current of charging? Please reply asap I need help
Question on this one. Is it difficult to replace that cap because of it's size or due to the proximity to other parts?
Exactly! You can replace if u have soldering tweezers
I don't have a bench power supply, could I use say a 9volt battery to look for shorts? Would a shorted component still get hot? I have some multi voltage universal adapters, could I set one of these to 3/4 volts and look for the short with this? Thanks for the vid( I have a water damaged iPhone 7 to look at soon)
9 volts may be too much. The DC power supply is typically set to 4.2V at 2 amps for iPhones.
You can get a decent power supply for less than $40.
@@OnYourSquare I used a 6v led torch battery and found the short with it. It was a capacitor.
Always learning, 🙏
Sir please please please make some videos,how to read and diagnose completely understanding schematics diagram for beginner to end with iphone/ipad motherboard... .. like your smile 😃 love ❤️ your Channel thanks
Can I know the liquid (petrol) used to checking the short capacitor you used please ?
It's plain Zippo lighter fluel from what I've seen in his videos.
also works with isopropil alcohol
very very good work
I have water damaged iphone 7 which wont turn on. I have disconnected old battery and connected new one. Once I have connected new one, it started smoking in place where you connect battery. What does that mean? Thanks. Also the new battery is now dead but old on has still 3.8V

Does this work with iPhone 7 Plus?
What is petro the liquid you put on the board ? I dont understand what that liquid is ?

Hey guys, how does he check if its shorted, im still a noobie. I have a multimeter but what settings do I need
As a rookie tech just coming into the game, I find it very annoying when these guys dont sort out the screws on their mats.

Excuse me sir,where do you live? Uk? Can you please repair my iPhone 5c has problems with the mother board also the screen it needs to get changed
